why you dislike Mr.. Blantyre so much
You have seen little of him, yet you
distrust him."
81 do" she replied, quietly. i dld
the first time l saw him. He commi's
positive cruelties in your name, ana
then lays all at your door. 1t Is the

sanction of your name-a name tha'

Justice, are committed"
How am l to know that it is true"
he asked. q,
GO yourself among the people ana
ask. You will see men with large ram
lilies and eighteen shillings week 10
support them with, whose rents nave
been raised one pound a year-their
rents not their wages; those are the
laborers employed on your estate-the
hewers of wood and the drawers OIL
water-the poorest, the most Wretcneu
class of men in England.
THAT is not Blantyre's fault. iou

interested in spite of himself by tne
passion of her words. :.

fault: but at he great day, when the
wasted lives and the broken hearts OF
these people cry out for vengeance, we
shall know whose fault it was
He stood perfectly still, listening IN
tently. ,0,
Have you finished, Hildred?' he
asked.
Eyes" she replied. "All that l say
is in vain; therefore l will say No
more"
She did not wait to hear what reply
he would make-it would nave oeeh
better had she done so-she swept from
the room.
It was a humiliation for her when
Mary Woodruff came again, to tell her
that she had failed in her nilssion'
that. even at her solicitation, the earl
had refused the little boon she asked.
She would have given much if she could
have shown even to the poor WHO"
some proof of his desire to please her-
but she could not.
She was one of those people VINO
never defer a disagreeable duty. she
sent that same day for the poor crea-
tire who came trembling for the tate
of herself and her children. Lady
Caraven received her very kindly, but
entered at once into the matter

does not feel inclined to forego the
rent"
1T is not my lord" cried the wo-
man. 81 know it is not. 1t is Mr.
Blantyres fault; he said l should and
must pay. But l cannot, my lady; l

Lady Caraven. Il cannot get the cot

the rent. / will give it to you every
month. but it must be on the condition
that YOU tell no one. Lord Caraven
might be displeased if he heard of it. !"
It was humiliating at first to her to
give charities unknown to her hus-
hand and then to beg that they might
be kept secret. The gratitude of the
moor woman in some measure compen-
stated her. and made her feel less mis-
cradle. But, though Lord Caraven had
laughed and sneered and spoken an
grily. he had not forgotten his wife's
words. Not for the world would he
have owned it, or that they had made
the least impression on him-on the
contrary, he was, If possible, more
brusque and abrupt, quoted Blantyre
more frequently, and talked more than
ever of what he would do with the
moor tenants-yet her words haunted
him. They seemed to be written in
letters of fire, let him turn his eyes
whittier he would.
AS to Hildred, her humiliation had
been great. She was fast losing heart
and patience; her hope had died lin
gering death-there was no CLEAN of
comfort left her, turn which way she
might Sir Raoul was i'll and seldom
able to leave his room. Owing to the
number of guests in the house, she
could not spend so much time with him
as formerly. She was dispirited and
depressed. Above all, she disliked
some of the visitors whom Lord Cara
ven had invited. There was one who
was young, effeminate, weak in char
acter, not much stronger in mind-a
Lieutenant Hilstcne, who had just sue
ceeded to a large fortune, and who
seemed at a loss how to get rid of it
most quickly. Lady Caraven had a

Marchioness of Laguna and Her Costume

Warehouses of LagUna and Her Costume

Besides their love for bull fighting,
the Spaniards also have national love
for display, which is not to be sup
pressed by war or the prospect of more

just before Lent the marchioness of
Laguna appeared in a truly gorgeous
costume, intended TO represent the Gre
alton. A description can hardly do.the
costume justice. The sun, moon and :
stars were represented by sphere and
a half moon set in diamonds and starA
adorned by the same stones. All these
were stuck in the lady's fair hair and
produced a dazzling effect. Lizards
and other specimens of the animal
kingdom, incrusted with various gems,
scattered about her bodice, represented
the earth. The sea was symbolized by
the amethysts, sapphires and emeralds
clustering on her shoulders and the SUI
perb necklace of pearls and diamonds
which fell down from the throat like
cascade. The air was represented by
butterfly placed almost Immediately
above the middle of her forehead,
which butterfly was respondent with
rubies, emeralds and brilliants; and,
to cap ALL the marchioness sported that
magnificent diadem of hers, which is
the wonder of all who behold it, says
Madrid correspondent. Besides all
this mass of "jewelry" she wore nine
necklaces, six of pearls and three OF
brilliants, ten enormous emeralds
surrounded by brilliants, six
brilliants worn separately and
all slightly larger than or
binary hazel nuts and large brooch
composed of splendid diamonds. In
fact, the marchioness, it is reported,
beat all creation with her jewels, and
naturally embodied the character with
a sparkling originality that crushed all
other rivals.

Has Been Abused.

Cruelty - Case in Police Court.
An Appealing Story Told.

One of the most pathetic. cases that
the District Magistrate has had to deal
with in many moons was that of Mu
Yau. a six year old Chinese girl who
appeared yesterday against two Chi
nese women and a Chinaman accused
of assault and battery on her. One
of the woman, Kan FOng by name,
is supposed to be the owner OF the
little tot, having bought her from her
mother in China. Mu Yum was receiv-
ed here only a month ago and was
set TO work in the family Of Kan
Fong, Notwithstanding her tender
wears. On Thursday last il was learn
ed by a cousin of the little girl that
she had been numerically beaten by
Kam Fong, All Chut, another woman
of the place. and MOcg SOong. A war
rant was prepared and the trio were at
| once put under arrest.
The case took up the whole OF the
| afternoon Yesterday and was then put
| over until Monday morning when the
| defense will finish with its witnesses
and the case be decided.
The most important evidence on the
! side of the prosecution, represented
bv Attorney De Bolt, was that Of the
| child herself. She said:

A prominent lawyer in this city ad-
mitted he had no idea that all his
nervousness, loss of memory, sleep

ders of mind and body were due to
