fancied that something went whirring
through the trees. That something
was the ball that had been fired at La
dy Hamilton, which pierced her shout
der and would have pierced her heart
had it gone in the direction in which
it had been aimed. For the moment
Lord Caraven had been too bewildered
to know what had happened; what ne
was saying in reality to his guest was
that he liked his wife's maiden name
better than any he had ever heard.
Lady Hamilton, who never liked to
hear any one praised but herself, asked
at once what 1t was. He had an
swered. Mildred Ransome; and those
were the words Lady Caraven had
heard. They had been no sooner ut
tered than Lady Hamilton fell on his
shoulder with a faint, low cry-a cry
that seemed almost simultaneous with
the firing of the shot.
The earl knew she had been shot, but
by whom or why he could not guess.
He laid her down for one minute while
he looked around; then it was that he
saw the white face of his wife. He
Jumped to the conclusion that she had
done it; she, and no other, was there
on the spot. She had even 10 himself
avowed her jealousy. She had follow
cd them. and in the madness of her fol-
ly had shot Lady Hamilton. No other
idea occurred to him. He said to him
self at once that it was so, and he i'm
plicitly believed it. He had rushed to
her and told her that she was "a guilty
woman" She had owned it. But
they were speaking of different kinds OF
guilt. He meant the guilt of murder;
she meant the guilt of being a spy up
on him. No doubt Of her guilt relieved
his mind. Even in that first bewilder-
ed moment he had said to himself that
she should never enter his house again
but that he would shield her because
she bore his name. He had told her
to remain where she was while he car
rled the senseless lady to the house.
There was terrible CONSERVATION. He
had the presence of mind to throw the
agitated inquirers off the scent. He
said that the poachers we're out-must
be out, for a chance shot fired in the
woods had wounded Lady Hamilton
Some of the gentlemen staying at the
house went with the keepers to scour
the woods. Dire were the threats OF
vengeance as to the rogue who had
done the mischief. Meanwhile a groom
was dispatched to Court Raven to sum
mon a doctor-the wounded lady had
been taken to her room and laid on the
bed. At first the earl was frightened
lest the wound should prove mortal
but one of the ladies staying at the cas-
tie, who knew something OF surgery
declared that the wound was not dan
gerous, and that the ball could soon be
extracted Aster hearing that the ear
returned TO his unhappy young wife
His first great fear that she had been
guilty of murder had been removed
there remained the fear lest the wound

So he would see her until he
died. He felt as though she had been
a stranger to him until then. The
passionate love which had famed into
hot jealousy had been hidden under a
cold, calm exterior. How she loved
him. He had never seen any woman's
face light up so splendidly. For the
first time in his life he had owned to
himself that by the side of her mag
niflcent beauty blonde loneliness faded
into nothing. He wondered that he
had lived so long in the house with her,
so long under one roof, yet he had not
noticed that which every one else re-
marked.
He was struck most Of all by the fact
that she loved him. II did not matter
about anything else. He had read her
truth and love in her face. She loved
him as no one else ever would or could;

A GOOD WINTER.
A Large Amoust Of Building Done Ia

A Large Amoast Of Building Done In
Great Yalls.
Great Falls. April 15.-The lumber
concerns OF this city report that the
winter just passed has been a remark
able one in respect to the amount of
building done all over the city. In that
particular IL has been the best winter,
taken all around. that Great Falls has
ever known. On the other hand. they
say that the spring business. perhaps on
that account. il likely not tn be up to
the average. as there is apt to be a
slight reaction in the way Of building.
Carpenters say hat the winter has been
the best they have ever experienced In
the town, there being but few OF that
trade who have been idle any length Of
tim throughout the cold months. IL
Is not expected that there will be any
large buildings u up during the com
ing summer. but II Is likely hat In
the face of the lumber merchants pre-
dictions there will be considerable done
in the way of residence and small i'm
provements.

est concerns i'm the city aid Yesterday

were already In the business found that
IL was necessary to retrench on ex-
penses. and did so. At the same time
the city, thanks largely to the steady
operation OF the Boston and Montana
smelter. afforded a better and better
market for farm products. The build-
ing of the Royal Milling company
opened a market for wheat, and a mar
ket that paid cash: all of these things
combined to give an impetus to agrf-
culture. with the result that while six
or seven years q there was hardly a
irst-class farmer in Cascade county,
they may he mber now by the hum
dred. and the farming community cuts

materially revives business after the

Great Falls. April 15.-This afternoon
a warrant was sworn out in Justice
Burleigh's court charging one John
Doe with assault with a deadly weapon.
His name is not known. but ne is sup
posed to be a ~sheepherder. He has been
in the city several days and has made
his headquarters at a resort on Third
avenue south kept by Nellie Baker.
According to her story he had spent
about 800 there up to last night, and
he returned there at a late hour yes
terday evening. Nellie claims that he
has been very anxious to marry her,
and last night when she refused to
straightway go before a justice of the
peace and become his bride, he pulled
a gun or her and as she fled from the
house fired two shots, neither of which
took effect. He left his belt and gun
scabbard in the house and ran across
the street and through empty lots to-
wards the southern part of the city.
The officers, whom Nellie furnished
with a good description of the man,
have been on the watch for him all day.
but up to this evening had not been
able to arrest him. They expect to get
him tonight. He is said TO have been
