CHAPTER X.
HOW WILL IT END

1t waS some minutes before Captain Lang
ton collected himself sufficiently TO cross the
room and speak to Miss Hastings. She look
ed up at him with a smile.
81 an afraid you have not had a very
pleasant time of il at that end Of the room,
Captain Langton," she said; II was just on
the point Of interfering"
"Your pupil is a most extraordinary young
lady, Miss Hastings" he returned; 81 have
never met with any one more So"
Miss Hastings laughed: there was an eX-
preston OF great amusement on her face.
"She is certainly very original, Captain
Lsngton; quite different from the pattern
young lady Of the present day."
"She is magnificently handsome" lie con-
tinued; but her manners are simply start
ling"
"She has very grand qualities" said Miss
Hastings; "she has a noble disposition and a
generous heart, but the want Of early train
ing, the mixing entirely with one class of so
ciety, has made her very strange"
stranger cried the captain. Il have
never met with any one SO blunt, so out
spoken, so abrupt, in all my life. She has
no notion of repose or polish. have never
been so surprised. | hear Sir Oswald com
ing, and really, Miss Hastings, l feel that l
cannot see him | am not equal to it-that
extraordinary girl has quite unsettled me.
You might mention that | have gone out in
the grounds to smoke my cigar: | cannot talk
TO any one"
Miss Hastings laughed as he passed out
through the open French window into the
grounds. Sir Oswald came in, smiling and
cOntented; he talked for a few minutes with
Miss Hastings, and heard that the captain
was smoking his cigar. He expressed TO
Miss Hastings his very favorable opinion Of
the young man, and then babe her good
night.
"How will il end?" said the gOverness to
herself. 'She will never marry hin, / am
sure. Those proud, clear, dark eyes of hers
look through all his little airs and graces;
her grand soul seems to understand all the
narrowness and s%elfshness of his. She will
never marry him. oh, IL she would but be
civilized! Sir Oswald is quite capable of
leaving all he has to the captain, and then
what would become OF Pauline?
BY this time the gentle, graceful governess
had become warmly attached to the beauti-
full. hayward, willful girl who persisted so
o~bstinately in refusing what she chose to
call polish"
"How will it end?' said the gOverness. II
would give all i have to see Pauline mistress
of Darrell Court; but | fear the future"
Some of the scenes that took place between
Miss Darrell and the captain were very
amusing. She had the utmost contempt for
his somewhat dandited airs, his graces, and
affections.
II like a grand, rugged, noble man, with
the head of n hero, and the brow of a poet,
the heart of a lion, and the smile of a child"
she said TO him one day; II cannot endure a
coxcomb."
II hope you may find such a man, Miss
Darrell" he returned, quietly. IL have been
some time in the world, but l have never
met with such q character"
III think your world has been a very limit
ed one" she replied, and the captain looked
angry.
He had certainly hoped and Intended to

BY BERTHA M. CLAY.

II do not see Miss Hastings" she said at
last, land it is quite useless going to the
aviary without her. l do not remember the
name of q single bird; and l am sure you
Will not care for them"
"But," he returned, hesitatingly, "Sir Os-
valid seemed to wish it,"
There Is the first dlnner-bell," she said,
with an air OF great relief; there will only
be just time to return. AS you seem solicit
Gus about Sir 0swalds wishes we had better
go in, for he dearly lsves punctuality."
II believe" thought the captain, THAT she
Is anxious TO get away from ne. ] must say
that l ain not accustomed to this kind of
thing"
The aspect OF the ~dining-room, with its
display OF line old plate, the brilliantly ar
ranged tables, the mingled odor of rare wines
and flowers, restored HIM TO good humor.
at would be worth some little trouble"
he thought, ITO win all this"
lie took Pauline in 10 dinner. The grand,
pale, passionate beauty OF the girl had never
shown to greater advantage than It did this
evening, as she sat with tho purple and Grim
BON fuchsias in her hair and the broken lily
In her belt. Sir Oswald did not notice the
latter until dinner was half over. Then he
said:
"Why, Pauline, with gardens and hot
houses full of flowers, have you chosen o
broken one?'
ITO me it is exquisite" she replied;
The captains face darkened for a moment,
but he would not take offence. The elegant
~ appointed table, the seductive dinner, the
rare wines, all made an impression III him.
He said to himself that there was a good
thing offered to him, and that a girls naughty
temper should not stand In his way. He
made himself most agreeable, he was all ami
nation, vlyacity, and high spirits with Sir
Oswald. He was defcrcntisl and attentive
TO Miss Hastings, and his manner 10 Pauline
left no doubt in the minds of the lockers on
that he was completely fascinated by her.
She was too proudly indifferent, too haughti-
ly careless, even 10 resent II. Sir Oswald
Darrell was too true a gentleman to offer his
niece to any onc; but he had given the cap
tain to understand that, If he could woo her
and win her, there would BE- no objection
raised on his part.
For once in his life Captain Langton had
spoken quite truthfully.
~ have nothing he said; my father left
me but q very moderate fortune, and ] have
lost the greater part of it. i have rot been
careful or prudent, Sir Oswald"
Care and prudence arc not the virtues of
youth" Sir Oswald returned. Il may say,
honestly, l should be glad if your fathers
son could win my niece; as for fortune, she
will be richly lowered If | make her my heir
ess. Only yesterday | heard that rJal bad
been found on my Scotch estates, and, if
that be true, it will raise my income many
thousands per annum,'
"May you long live to enjoy your wealth,
Sir Oswald y said the young man, so hearth
~ that tears stood in the old baronet's eyes.
But there was one thing the gallant cap
tain did not confess. lie did not tell Sir o.
wald Darrcll-what was really tho truth
that he was over head aud ears in debt, and
that this visit to Darrell Court was the last
hope left TO him.

SHE HAD A LOVELY TIME.
The Recreation OF n Stout Lady with q
Flow of Language.

When the stout lady entered the ele-
waited at Fourteenth street she sat down
on the left-hand seat facing the engine,
says the n. Y. SIN. There were little
touches of tinery about her dress, whose
presence was explained when she
caught sight Of an acquaintance on the
other side of the car and Immediately
plunged across the aisle and sat down
beside her.
1--WE just been up calling on Lucy
Powers" she began at once. "She used
to live over near us you know and |
promised that rs soon as she got back
from her tower I'd u across and see
her and this morning Mrs. Ebler told
me she'd seen her on Broadway over
here and SO ] just ragged out and came
ove right away"
She had u large, limp mouth and
when she spoke her lips moved llutter-
ingly like the leaves of u poplar tree in
a breeze. Punctuation was a useless
arrangement of the grammarian so far
as she was concerned, while her idea of
conversation evidently was that il was
Il form of social entertainment in which
one person did all the talking.
81 was surprised to find" She ran on,
chow cozily Lucy is fixed she has a real
sweet little Hat with real nice furniture
and lots of dainty things scattered about
you know and though it wasn't her call
ing day there were quite a number Of
people very nice people too looking at
the things she had picked up in their
tower curiosities and such things you
know and | got a real nice cup Of choc-
olate though l can't say ! like chocolate
in the afternoon | prefer tea don't you |
do"
Il told William I'd call in for him
when | left Lucy's as he wants me to
look ut some Undertaking with him
and he never so much as buys n pair Of
socks now without first consulting me
which is very complimentary you know
though somewhat trying when you have
so many other things to look after / de-
clare these cars do make such a row
you can scarcely hear what any one is
saying this is Franklin street isn't ii
well good-by dear I'm SO glad to have
seen you come over right soon now
won't you I've had such a lovely time
good-by."
And with this she drove her way into
the string of incoming passengers, leav-
ing her friend with a feeble, imploring
look in her eyes, her mouth partly open,
as though gasping for breath, and her
hands feebly clutching at the air ike
n family fighting against s~uffocation

Mothers His Sweetheart.


His mothers his sweetheart-the sweet
est. the best!"
So say the white roses hs brings to my
breast;
The roses hat bloom when life's summers
depart;
But his love is the sweetest rose over my
heart!
The love that hath crowned me-
A necklace arou me.
That closer to God and to heaven hath
bound me!
His mothers his sweetheart" Through
all the sad years
His love Is the rainbow that shine
through my tears;
My light Is Gods darkness, when with my
dim eyes
l see not the stars in the storm OF His
skies.
When / bow meath the rod
And no rose decks the sod,
HIS love lights the pathway hat leads me
His mothers his sweetheart" Shine
bright for his feet,
0 lamps on life's highway! and roses, lean
sweet
TO the lips of my darling! and God grant
His sun
And his stars to my dutiful, beautiful one!
For his love-it hath crowned me
A necklace around me,
And closer to God and to Heaven hath
bound me!

Churchill is probably no surprise to
those who saw him when he was last in
this city. He was in u condition Of
semi-stupefaction from the use of NOR

He was, it is understood, kept in this
state partly from his own craving for
the toxi-neryine, or partly to keep him
from performing the act which we, in
our rude American way, "call giving
yourself away"
In the middle of a conversation, in
which he had been with real and rare
good sense expounding the political
and industrial needs Of South Africa,
where he had been on a tour, he sud-
