REVOLT AGAINST LELAND.
Il Spreading Through the State. Dont-
phan County Joins in the Effort to
Shake Him on.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. u.-Republi-
cans ali over Kansas are revolving
against the Leland machine. Pom
nearly every county in the state
come reports Of a quiet undercurFent
against the manner IN which this
boss packs and runs conventions.
Thousands Of Republicans who de-
eided never again TO submit to the
high-handed manner in which Le
land with his machine manipulates
nominations, are quietly waiting
until November 8 to register their
protest in a telling manner.
Notice was served on the Leland
gang that If the machinery Of the
party was not placed IN iUs hands,
thousands Of Republicans would re-
fuse to vote the ticket. But these
protests counted for naught with
Leland and his henehmen. he
forced upon the party for chairman
one Of his most subserYieHt tools,
and the other membs of the little
star chamber committee are tools
Of this nan.

CHAPTER III.-(CoxrrNuED.l

The day following there was a sim
pie funeral, in a solitary burial-place,
seldom used, and lying within short
distance of the spot where the body
was found. Mr.. Lorraine betrayed the
expenses out of his own pocket, saw
that everything was decently, though
simply arranged, and himself read the
beautiful burial service over the coffin.
He had now no doubt in his mind that
the drowned woman was the mother Of
the infant left under his care, and that
by destroying herself she had simply
carried out her desperate determina-
ton.
All attempts to identify her, how
ever, continued without avail. In
quiries were made on every side, adj
vertisements inserted in the local
newspapers, without the slightest re-
suit; no one came forward to give any
information. But by this time the
minister's mind was quite made up
He would keep the child and, with
Gods blessing, rear her as his own;
he would justify the unhappy mothers
dependence on his charity and loving
kindness.
So it came to pass that late in the
cleaning of the old bachelors life the
cry of child was heard in the lonely
house; and somehow or other, despite
Solomon Mueklebackit's prognostica
tons, the house became brighter and
merrier for the sound Solomon him
self soon fell under the spell, and when
a little warm with whisky he would al
lude to the child, with comic sense
of possession, as "oor BARN.
At last, one day, there was quiet
christening in the old kirk, where Mr.
Lorraine had OBLIGATED so many years
Mysie held the infant in her arms,
while Solomon stood at hand, blinking
through his horn spectacles, and the
minister performed the simple cere-
mony.
After long and tender deliberation
the minister had fixed upon a name,
which he now gave to the poor little
castaway, who had neither father nor
mother, nor any kinsfolk in the world
after whom she could be called.
He christened her Marjorie Amman.
Marjorie, after that other beloved
Marjorie, who had long before joined
or so he dreamed-the bright celes-
tial band; Amman, after that troubled
water wherein the miserable mother
had plunged and died.
