road to Worseley-it is direct-you
take the high road without turning.
Goodbye"
she raised her dark, sad eyes to his
face; all the love, the passion, the re-
greet that she could not put into words,
was revealed in them.
Goodbye" she repeated.
He did not hold out his hand to her.
Had he been speaking to the merest
stranger, his voice could not have been
colder or more stern. Then he turned
quickly away, and Lady Caraven walk
ed across the coppice and through a
lane into the high road. She walked
quite mechanically. She had to go to
Worseley to take ticket to London,
and then go to her fathers house. She
repeated the words over and over again
to herself, like a child who breads for
getting lesson. Her face was deadly
pale; her limbs trembled with cold.
The golden stars shone down upon her;
the night winds whispered round her.
She walked on, unconscious of 1t all.
1t was the early dawn of morning
when she reached the station-a large
railway junction where she was both
unknown and unnoticed. The train
started for London in half an
hour. No one spoke to her or appear
ed TO see her as she took her place, and
In few minutes more she was on her
way.
1t was a hard punishment-terribly
hard for such trifle, she thought, won
derlng that the earl could be so stern.
She was tired, fatigued with passion
and emotion. She had neither eaten,
drank nor slept since the evening be-
fore. When she reached London she
asked a porter to call cab for her,
and gave the address-"Mr. Ransome
the Hollies, Kew" and the drive
thither seemed to her more than ever
like a dream.

Nerves Out of Tune.

Just as the strings OF a musical instrument
get out OF tune through lack OF care and
break out into ear-torturing discords when
Aouched, so the human nerves get out or tune,
and make everybody miserable that comes
in contact with them. Every tobacco-user's
nerves are out OF tune more or less, and the
real tobacco slaves nerves are relaxed to the
utmost. No-To-Bac is the tuning-key which
tightens the nerves, makes them respond
quickly to the emotions, resulting in the hap
piness OF all. No-To- Bac guaranteed tobacco
habit cure, makes weak men strong. We ad-
wise all tobacco-users to take No-To-Bac.

JUDGMENT WITHHELD.
The appalling nature of the disaster
and the gravity of the situation that
would arise should the investigation
give basis for the undercurrent of
suspicion of treachery and foul play
that ran through all minds, had a sober
ing effect on public men of all shades of
political opinion.
The fact stands forth, and is little less
than remarkable, that not a single res
olution was introduced or single
speech made in either house of congress
bearing on the disaster, save a reso-
luton of coincidence with the families
of those killed offered by Mr.. Boutelle,
and adopted by the house of representa-
tives.
Public men expressed their opinions
with reserve when approached for in
terviews, but everywhere there was a
demand for an investigation and full de-

COAST DEFENSE.
A Theme for Lively Discussion
in the Senate.
The House Adopts Resolutions of sympa-
thy and Coincidence With Families OF
Men Lost on the Maine.

Washington, Feb. ia discussion
upon coast defenses was. the interesting
feature of the senate today Many SEN
ators took the ground that the appro-
priations should be for the full amount
of the estimates by the war department,
instead of some four million less. Sena-
tors Perkins and Hale said that it was
the policy of the appropriations com
mittee to make an annual expenditure
of $l0000.000 a year for the Notifications.
Senators Stewart, Hawlay, Chandler
and Lodge spoke in favor of the in
crease. Senator Teller also advocated
liberal expenditures, and during his re-
marks made significant illusions to
Cuba and Hawaii. The bill was finally
passed without division.
In the early part of the day there
was discussion Of KanSas-Paciflc rail
road sale, but no action was taken.
IN THE HOUSE.
Washington, Feb. 16.-The debate on
the bankruptcy bill, which is to continue
until Saturday when a vote will be talk
ell, opened in the house today, but it
attracted little attention, the interest of
the members being entirely absorbed by
the disaster to the Maine.
At times the hall of the house was
almost deserted, the members being con-
gregated in the Hobbies, or cloak rooms,
discussing the accident, and speculat-
ing on its probable consequences. Just
before the house adjourned Mr.. Bout
ellie, chairman Of the naval committee,
presented a resolution which was unan-
imously adopted, expressing regret for
the disaster, coincidence with the fami-
lies Of those who lost their lives, and
sympathy with the injured.

FIRST BAPTIST MUSIC.

At the First Baptist Church, William
w. Johnson and William H. Cook, who
have charge of the church music, have
as vet made no definite arrangements
showing the personnel of the choir for
the coming year. II is undetermined
whether Mr. J. H. Howell, the organist,
will remain or not, but probably a sue
cessor will be chosen; and, as members
of the choir and quartet contemplate
leaving, there will be several places
vacant large number of candidates
have presented themselves, but no ex-
animation has been made. Some Of the
candidates will be heard Sunday, one or
more from out of town, and others the
first of the week, when selections for the
year will be made. The feature of sin
gle quartet with chorus will be con-
tinued as it has proved its excellence at
the church services of the past year.

The disaster to the battleship Maine
has rarely been surpassed, or equalled
even, in the history of the worlds
navies.
The event in itself was of such a ma
ture that it little needed to heighten its
effect the events in our relations with
Spain that have transpired recently.
AS nearly as can be determined, 25S
persons were killed by the explosion, or
persisted by drowning. All the officers
but two were saved.
The consensus of opinion among naval
officers and temperate minded persons,
who have spoken their views, seems to
be that the catastrophe was the result
Of an accident, and not in any way at
tributable to treachery,
1t is gathered from Cuban adyices
that the Spaniards have extended all
possible aid to Capt Sigsbee in caring

DE LONE SAILS AWAY.
The exMinistsr Received Many Tokens of
Esteem.

Esteem.
New York, Feb. 16.-Senor Dupuy de
LONE, former Spanish minister to Wash
ington, sailed on the steamship Britain
mic for Liverpool today. Complimentary
resolutions were presented to him on
board by a delegation of Spaniards.
There was no hostile demonstration of
any kind.
Senior de Lone was accompanied by
his wife and two boys. The party was
escorted by detectives from the hotel
to the dock. Four state rooms were in
readiness for the ex-minister. A cabin
set apart for a reception room was filled
with floral emblems. Among the many
friends who were present to bid the De
Lomes farewell was Miss Pauncefote,
eldest daughter of the British ambassa-
dor. She presented to Sonora de LONE
magnificent bouquet.
An album containing resolutions OF
sympathy, signed by Spaniards in this
city, was handed to Senior de LONE who,
in short speech, returned thanks, and
said he hoped he would retain the high
ly-valued good will of the Spanish colo
ny in New York. AS the steamer drew
away from her dock there We're cheers
from the Spanards for De LONE.

MAY BE RAISED.
The naval constructors in the light Of
dispatches thus far received, say That
it is by no means certain that the Maine
cannot be raised and again carry the
flag. They say that while she is big
ship, others as large have been raised.
Capt. Sigsbee evidently is taking an
interest in the future of the ship, for
he sent a telegram to Commander For
sythe at Key West that was promptly
transmitted to Secretary Long, suggest
ing that lighthouse vessel, or some
such small craft be stationed In Havana
harbor on watch over the wreck. The
latter, even if beyond resurrection, con-
tains valuable ordBance and other prop
erty that doubtless can be secured by
divers.
1t is said at the navy department that
this disaster is the greatest in naval
history, since the sinking Of the big
British warship Victoria, by collision
with the Camperdown in the Mediterra-
mean sea off Malta, in June, 1898. BY
that accident, the British admiral cam
manding, % officers and $50 men lost
their lives.
SPANIARDS OFFER CONDOLENCES
The Spanish legation was early ad-
vised of the horror by Capt. Gen. Blan-
CO. who expressed his profound regret
and added that the occurrence was an
accident, the undoubted cause being an
explosion of the boiler Of the dynamo
! This was the only specific cause as
! signed from an official source during the
day.
Senior Du Bose, the Spanish charge
d'affaires, called at the state depart
ment to express his profound regret, and
| the entire Spanish staff left cards at the
navy department as a mark of persona
coincidence. At all Of the foreign es
adjustments there was deepest solicit
ude over the affair, and during the
| day Ambassador Cambon of France, Sil
Julian Pauncefote of the British EN-
bassy and the foreign Representatives
called on the president or at the STATE
department to express their regrets.
The disaster is remarkable in tina

grown with every passing moment.
While all manner of theories are adj
vanced as to the cause Of the disaster
to the Maine, there are none of them
that can be in any way substantiated,
until divers examine the wreck OF this
warship itself.
The common idea among American
residents, Spaniards and foreigners, is
that the explosion was somehow the re-
suit of an accident, the nature OF which
can be but vaguely surmised.
The Spanish authorities have done ev-
erything possible to succor the wounded
and to manifest in every appropriate
manner their sorrow.
The city has been, in fact, in MOURN
ing. Business practically was suspend
ed; flags ON public buildings were at
half-mast, and not a few residences and
other structures were draped in black.
So nearly as can be learned at pres
ent, most of the ofheers were dining on
board the City of Washington when
the explosion on the Maine occurred
last night.
The Spanish cruiser. Alfonso XII.
was for some time after the explosion
in great peril. and her mooring tackles
were Stacked away and she was an
chored at a greater distance from the
burning warship, being assisted by
other Spanish vessels. She then low
cred her boats and took part in the
work of rescue.
