Here a sound of voices and steps out

applied all the force of his keen, and In

At this point in his meditations Dillon
came upon a gentleman who was walking
slowly along the beach, and had crossed
from the waters edge as If to mount
some steps that led to the low embank-
ment.
Dillon recognized Egerton, and waited
till he came near. "Beg YOU pardon,

of the awful silent grief which oppfe
him? He was hardly master of himself!
Then when Standish went away, how ap-
palling her loneliness would be!
As she thought this, with her elbow on
the table, her cheek on her hand, a voice,
a strange voice, said:
"Vni / beg your pardon, MISS"
She started, and turning, recognized
Dillon.
81 beg your pardon, MISS" he repeated.
"I thought Mr.. Standish was here
"He was here half an hour ago, and
will return soon," she said, rising and
looking earnestly at him; something IN
him repealed her, yet she had a curious
wish to speak to him.
''Thank you, miss. l only wanted to
ask him a question or two, and maybe
you could answer them as we'll"
"Mr. Dillon, do you hope to get any
clue ?"
"Well miss, l may and l may not.
There are many points to be considered.
It's all very well to offer rewards n
hunt up those foreign chaps, but it's just
possible others may have O hand IN IL
Things look black enough, l grant,

and looked down, as If considering deep
ly.
"Still, In what other way can you pos
sjbly account for the horrible crime r
asked Dorothy.
"As to accounting for it-why, that's
not to be thought of yet. Then you see
there's a heap of crimes done from,s,z ite,
and jealousy and evenge, besides the de-
sire to grab booty"
There could be no such motives in this
case" returned Dorothy, trying to speak
calmly, while her heart beat with almost
painful violence at this corroboration OF
her own horrible suspicious. "Who could
be Jealous of or wish to hurt my sister
who only lived among her W family
and had no intimacies outside them?

how the swift blood mounted almost t.
her brow, and then left her paler thai
before; how her eyes avoided his, and sh'
seemed to shrink together.

" able to refrain from screaming alou'

comforts as good food and drink.
The circumstances of Mrs. Callander's
death exercised him a good deal.
He would have been rather Disguised

resumed on the pike, and in the
course of a few months we will
have a most magnificent road to
the end of Lincoln district. We
had hoped that the other districts
along the pike would have taken
the preliminary steps in the same
direction during the winter, but it
is not too late yet. Whether we
get the railroad or not, we want a
good wagon road clear through the
county, and teel certain that we will
get it, if not now, shortly after our
pike is completed, and the people
taste the blessings of good roads all
