Annandale to marry me because l did
not care about Miss Annandale."
"Bah% grunted the old man, in a
fury. 81 suppose you believe in all
that rot about marrying for love-"
Most certainly do"
And you mean to do it,"
81 don't mean to marry anybody at
present" said Dick, coony. He felt
more Of sneak than he had ever felt
in all his life, to leave the old man
in his belief that his dear little Do
rothy was less to him than she was,
yet he knew that for her sake, for the
sake Of her actual bodily welfare, he
could not afford to have an open dec
laration of war just then. Sneak or
no sneak, he must manage to put the
time on little until the child had
come, and all was we'll with Dorothy.
Lord Aylmer rose from his chair in
rage Of tottering fury. Listen to
me, sir" he Numbered; at may be all
very pretty and idyllic and all that,
but you wouldn't marry the woman |

to India to pay for 1t. It's no use your
thinking you have any choice in the
matter-you haven't. 1 had enough Of

In his eye, though, Of course, he
couldn't very we'll refuse me. Still, Of
course, l had to tell him you were dew
ilish anxious for the appointment"
But I'm not devilish anxious for the
appointment" Dick broke in at last.
Pm not anxious for it at ALL"
For a minute or two the old man
locked at him in profound amazement.

you're going to turn round on me after
all the trouble I've taken for you?
Damme, sir, do you mean to tell me
that?"

England is good enough For me, and I
went into the Forty-third on purpose
that might not have to go to India,
or lose a lot of seniority. What 1
want to know is this: What has made
you take lot Of trouble, and put your
self under an obligation to Lord Skew
Versleigh, in order to bring about what
you know would be utterly distasteful
to me?"
Lord Aylmer looked at Dick as If
words had failed him, but presently
he found his tongue and used it free
ly. "Damme, sir" he roared, "do you
mean to accuse me of any sneaking,
secondhand motives? Pom my soul,
sir, I've good mind to write to Lord
Skevversleigh and ask him to consid-
er the appointment refused. But say"
as he saw by Dicks face that this
would be the most desirable course he
could take, II will do no such thing.
Damme, sir, I've had about enough of
your airs and graces. Hank you, and
mark what l say! To India you go,
without another word; or l cut off
your allowance from this day week,
every penny Of it, AS you yourself said
just now, go to lot of trouble for
you, put myself under a great obliga-
tion to friend in order to serve you,
and all the return I get for it is that
you get on your high horse and ac-
cuse me of secondhand motives.
Damme, sir, it's intolerable-simpIy
intolerable. And I suppose you think
/ don't know why you want to shirk
year or two in India, eh?"
Il don't understand you, sir" said
Dick, with icy civility.
mo, no, of course not. And you
think 1 didn't see you the other night
at the Criterion, and hopping your
eyes over David Garrick' afterward.
Bah! you must think I'm a fool"
For moment Dick was startled, but
he did not show it by his manner in
the least. well, SIR" he said quietly.

A NOVEL HEN PARTY.
Each Guest Brought as a Contribution
Real Live Chicken.

Each Guest Brought as a Contribution
Real Live Chicken.
The Boston Traveller tells Of a new
kind Of hen party that has found favor
in that city. 1t bears no resemblance
to the time-honored idea that tea and
chitchat, gossip and smart hats, con-
stitute the necessary adjuncts to these
particular gatherings, The interest
centers about a real live hen Of feath-
ers, her chicks and her eggs. The
party originated in this fashion: A
young bride and groom took house
In the suburbs and went to housekeep-
ing. A mischievOus friend called to
see them and discovered on the prem
Uses a deserted hennery, which sug-
gested an idea to his fertile brain.
He at once communicated his idea to
other friends, who arranged secretly
for q genuine hen party. On a pleas
ant day the invited guests met at the
railway station and proceeded in a
body to the new home Each one car

eggs for Matching purposes. The scene
which occurred when thirty-six guests
arrived with thirty-six installments
for the hennery was decidedly ludi-
crous. When the little hostess recoV-
cred breath she produced her chocolate
cups and tea biscuits and the groom
showed himself man of resources by
offering prize for the most laughable
incident connected with the purchase
of the fowls. One Of the rules of this
new game is that the hens must not
be sent by express, porter or other
means Of conveyance, but must be de-
Iivered by the purchaser. It is sug-
gested that these feathered donations
would prove great success in chart
table affairs.

self, sir" suggested Dick, in his mild
est tones.
"And repented it before three months
had gone over my head, and have gone
on repenting ever SINCE" the old man
snarled. "Damme, sir, that woman IS
never tired of throwing 1t at me. II
I'd married her for her money she
couldn't very we'll have thrown that at
me-been a fool if she had"
There was a moments silence; then
the old lord went on again, Look
here, Dick, you've got to make up your
mind to one thing-I mean you go to
India, so you may as we'll go with
good grace"
I'll think it over" said Dick.
Il want an answer now" irritably.
That's impossible, sir, unless you
like to take no for an answer, right
away" Dick replied firmly.
Il suppose you want to talk the
matter over with the young lady in
Palace Mansions" said the old lord, in
MS most savage tones.
II don't think that would interest
you, whether I did or not" said Dick,
coldly; "but one thing is very certain,
which is that 1 am not going to India
without thinking the why's and where
fores thoroughly over. 1 will come
again on Friday and tell you my in
tentions."
And you'll bear in mind that re-
fusal of the appointment cuts off your
allowance at once"
81 will bear everything in mind"
said Dick, steadily; and then he shut
the door, leaving the old man alone.
"Well?" cried Lady Aylmer, when
he looked into the little boudoir again.
How did you get on?"
1--WE didn't get on at ALL" Dick an
swered. HE means me to go to India
by hook or by crook"
"And 1 wonder" said my lady
thoughtfully, what it is that he has in
his mind. No good, I'm afraid"

to hear the result Of his visit to his
uncle to let him even light cigar
cite in peace, until she had heard all
that there was to hear; in fact, as
soon as he put his key into the door
she flew out to meet him. "Dick, is
1t good news?" she cried eagerly.
Now Dick could not honestly say
that it was good news, but then he
did not wish to tell her how bad it
was all at once; so he gently prevari-
Gated, kissed her with even more than
his usual tenderness, and asked her If
she had been very dull without him
and whether he had been too long
away.
His well-meaning prevarication had
exactly the opposite effect to that
which he had intended. Dorothy's SEN
sitive heart went down to zero at
once, and the corners of her sweet lips
dropped ominously. "Oh, Dick, it is
bad news" she said, mournfully, "and
you are trying to hide it from me-"
"No, no, am not" he said, hurried
ly, "but there's no need to tell all our
private affairs out here for everybody
to hear"
But there isn't any everybody" said
Dorothy; there's only Barbara"
In spite of his anxiety Dick burst out
laughing. Come in here, my darling"
he said, drawing her toward the draw
ing-room; "and you shall give me a
cup of tea while 1 tell you all about
it."
"And you've not promised to go?"
she asked, as she began to make the
tea. mo, don't trouble, Dick, dear, it
is lighted, and the water will boil in
two minutes"

The calhoun opera Comnanr.

It Is easy to account for the remark
ably great success of the Calhoun OPP,
era company in the past four seasons,
when we think of its equipment. This
season the equipment will be more
perfect than ever before. The prinei'
pal singers are of undoubted reputa-
ton and among them may be named
George Lyding, we'll known the world
over; Miss Carlotta Gilman, a beautiful
prina donna soprano, with voice that
is rich and round and clear, and with a
face and physique which delights the
eye of both men and women; Adele
Harrington, one of the best prima dom
ma soubrettes before the pubic today,
and Edward Webb, the we'll known
English tenor comique; Jack Allison,
the famous basso, Chas King, Mount
joy walker, 1uise Walker, Maude AL.
lison and Stella Madison, all favorites
with the public A chorus much larger
than before and an orchestra under the
direction Of Mr.. Richard F. Lindsay,
adds much to the harmony and rendi.
ton of the operas produced. Costumes,
properties, scenery, calciums, electrical
effects and all the pharaphenalia are
the highest order, and the appearance
here of this company will undoubtedly
be the society event of the season. At
the Crawford Grand, Wichita, on the
evening of Friday, Feb. 25th, on which
occasion they will produce the beauti-
full opera, LA Grande Duchess"
