threat about an heir of his own into
actual fact" Dick replied. But then
you won't like me any the less for that,
I hope"
"Oh, no, I was not thinking Of
that" she said. 81 was only thinking
how wonderful it was that you should
want to marry me. But, Dick, what
will your uncle say when he finds out
about it,"
He will cut off my allowance
promptly" Dick answered.
"Oh, Dick!" she said.
well, now, my darling, that is what
want to talk to you about. You see,
nobody about here, not even Lady
Jane, knows me except as Harris, reg
iment vague. And if the old savage
finds out that am married he will
make it a necessity for me to go to
India, which l don't want to do If I
can help it. But If you would consent
to marry me privately under the
name Of Richard Harris, we should be
perfectly safe, so long as you were not
known by any of the people in the
regiment-that is, if you lived mile
or two away, or in the next town"
1T would be quite legal?" said Doro-
thy, in a trembling voice.
1T would be perfectly legal" he an
swered. "Oh, my dear!' he burst out,
do you think l would be such a viii
lain as to make a suggestion which
would not be legal, while your aunt,
who took care of you all her life, and
who left you in my charge, lay dead
in the house? Listen-I have thought
1t all out. We shall be married, IL you
consent, as soon as we possibly can
be. Barbara will witness the marriage,
but will not know my real name. l
will at once make a deed declaring that
was married on such a day, under
the name Of Harris, and leave 1t sealed
in some place of safety, so that there
can never be any trouble about the
identification Of the Richard Harris
who was married to Dorothy Strobe.
We will tell Barbara that 1t is nee
essary the marriage should be kept Sc
cret for time, and she will live with

weeping as some word brought hack
the memory OF their loss. And Dnro-
thy told the faithful servant ali tho
plans that Dick and she had made for
the strange and almost unknown flu
ture, which seemed SO terrible to her
who had lived all her life-all that
she could remember, at least-under
the same roof and guarded by the
same tender care.
1t was so sad to have so little JOY IN
her engagement and her coming mar
rlage, and yet, "You mustn't think thaf
I don't love Dick" she cried to Bar
bara, when she had another passionate
burst Of grief over the dead woman
lying above. II do love him with All
my heart, and know that shall pc
quite, quite happy by-and-by, but ~
is all so sudden, so strange and news
everything is going from me at one
stroke, and after we go away from
Graveleigh / shall have nothing but
you to remind me of the past at all
Why, I don't know. am not at all
sure that everything here does not
belong to David. Perhaps he can even
take my Lorna Doone away and-and
even drown her."
NAY, nay, Mr.. David won't want to
do that" returned Barbara, soothingly.
Besides, Lorna never did belong to
the mistress. Her ladyship gave her to
you--the dear mistress had naught to
do in the matter. Then, Miss Doro-
thy, dear, aren't you going to tell her
ladyship about it?"
LADY Jane last Of anybody" crled
Barbara-"last of anybody"
"I see," said Barbara, with an air OF
wisdom; but all the same, Barbara did
not see anything. She thought the
whole arrangement very strange and
unusual and she reminded herself that
she had never been mixed up with any
thing of the kind in her life before,
and now that she was being drawn
into something distinctly clandestine
she did not at all like it. Still, on the
other hand, there was only the pros
pect of remaining at Graveleigh Hall
under David Stevenson, and Barbara
cordially detested David, as she had
always done. So, between her dislike
of David Stevenson and Dorothys
promise and Mr.. Harris wish that
she should see the marriage take place,
Barbara graciously gave her sanction
to the private union, and did not try
to place any obstacles in the young
folks way.

bitter were the tears that fell that day
for the just and kind friend who was
gone.
Naturally good deal of curiosity
was felt about Dorothy's future, and
many were the speculations as to
whether she would remain at the Hall
alone with Miss Barbara or whether
she would eventually decide to go to
Holroyd, or to take the good-looking
officer who had been so frequent Wis
itor at the Hall for three months past
With regard to Dick, there was al
most a quarrel, for Dorothy, as a mat
ter of course, had invited him to the
funeral, as indeed she had asked all
her aunt's friends who would be like
ly to attend it.
Now, Dorothy had not relation in
the world, excepting one cousin; at
that time wintering in Egypt, and
therefore unable to attend the cere-
mony. She did not enter the large
drawing-room until the last moment
before starting, and then only spoke
a few words to those nearest the door.
And when the time came for them to
20, David Stevenson came forward,
and, with a very authoritative air,
solely due to the presence Of his rival,
offered Dorothy his arm.

absent. There, that is my idea. 1
know that 1t is a great sacrifice to
ask of you, and hardly like to ask 1t,
but you see l am in this old savage's
hands, so to speak. Then, on the other
hand, If you don't feel that you ought
to do this, or that your aunt would
have objected very strongly to 1t, ]
will write at once and tell Lord Ayl-
mer what have DONE. and he must
make himself as disagreeable as he
pleases. Only, my dearest, that will
mean India"
Dick, dear" said Dorothy, slipping
her hand within his, we will be mar
ried privately. 1 don't think Auntie
would have minded bit. If she knew
a thing was right, she never cared what
the world had to say about it."

AN INJUNCTION SERVED.
ON MCFARLAND & Royce by CITY OF
BARRE.

City Attorney George T. Swasey re-
turned last evening from Manchester
where papers were signed by Judge
Munson for a temporary injunction tc
be placed on George f. Mcfarland and
William A. Boyce, who are owners Of
a spring water company in this city
The papers were served this morning
by Constable William II. Buchanan on
George Mcfarland the senior member
of the company.
In the injunction the City of Barre
alleges that on the 18th day of June
the finn of Mcfarland & Boyce applied
for permit before the city council to
open streets, make connections and ex-
tend their water mains through the
streets of the said city, but upon vote Of
the council they were rcfused.
Since then they have made number
of connections, it is alleged, and disre-
gardcd the action of the council. The
papers also state that the company pays
no license to the said city.
There will be hearing before Judge
Munson in the court of chancery in
Montpelier on tho second Tuesday of
September.
This is the outcome of the expected
trouble between the city of Barre and
the spring water companies. 1t is
probable injunctions will be served on
the other spring water companies if they
carry out their intentions of cxcavating
the city streets to make connections
without permit from the city council.

"And the villain still pursued her
was the song the club opened with last
night, but the "villainn had been

up the fight for the great reforms
which they desire to inaugurate. The
Boss blamed the members and the mem.
bers blamed the Boss. The Boss said
he could whip any member of the club
and was also a good marksman. For a
time it looked as though the electric
road crossing at Lamsons would be tbe
scene OF fight between members of the
club as that is where the Inspector found
them last night, while waiting for q car
The fight seemed about to commence
when the car moved into sight and the
club rode into the city, while discus
sing some important local questions
The first that | heard, being in regard
to the hotel, which is now being talked
about. The members of the club wero
all anxious to erect the hotel, providipo
they could find some one else to advance
the cash. They all agreed that Barre
needs hotel, but each declined to do
anything towards its erection, The
club members seemed to be unable to
agree on any plan, and of course have
no funds with which to assist. Now
the Inspector is new conner in these
parts, but from what I have learned 7
understand that the hotel question has
become almost drug on the market
That Barre has often been about 70 b,vo
a modern hotel building, and some
croaker would appear on the scenc to
sop it, Now The Inspector has been in
various parts OF the county, and seen
many local croakers. There are the most

S. OF V. DANCE.

A very pleasant time was had last
evening at the dance given in Armory
hall under the auspices of the Sons of
Veterans, it being their first annual
ball. About rs couples joined in the
grand march at $50 and several other
young people came in late in the even
ing so that the number of people pres
ent was just about right for all to have
a most enjoyable time.
The hall was tastefully decorated
with pictures of our naval and army
heroes and of Mckinley. The centre
of the hall was hung with testoons
draped from the sky-light window so as
to present very pretty spectacle.
A good dance order was arranged
and the party did not break up until the
early hours of the morning.
At midnight refreshments of ice
cream and cake were served and lemon
ade was dispersed from the booth near
the entrance during the evening
Several of the visiting Sons of Veter-
ans including several last colonies,
captains and other Ulcers were present
to enjoy the occasion.
Music was furnished to the satisfac-
ton of all by Messrs. Bruce, Mckenzie,
and Freer.
