The sudden revulsion of feeling was
almost too much for the baronet. Tot
tering to the nearest chair, he buried
his face in his toil-worn hands. Silence
reigned in the room for n few intense
moments. Then Sir Richard feeling a
gentle hand upon his shoulder, looked
up into n sweet but still scared face
and two balf-frightened gray eyes.

The Fair a Success.

The aides of the French Catholic
church are meeting with success in
their fair which is being held at the
Gross opera house. The fair will be
concluded tonight. The receipts
from the sale OF articles, rames, vot.
ing contests. etc., and the supper al
so for the first night, amounted to
$3.50. The silver tea set ratified
Wednesday evening was won by D.
K. Harting and the cake dish and
handkerchief were won by Mrs. L. E.
Richard. Warm supper will be
served again this evening from $50
until the close of the fair. The vot-
ing contests, some of which promise
to be quite spirited, have only been
started and will no doubt add con-
siderably to the proceeds of the fair.
The ladies still have a large number
of useful articles for sale, such as
children's wearing apparel. Each
article is worth the price asked and
all will undoubtedly be sold before
the fair closes.

The Electric & Water Case.

During the past week the testi
mony of Chas. F. Loweth, the expert
in behalf Of the city, and that of Jno
A. Berkey has been taken by the
special examiner. Engineer Loweth
the city's expert, became so liberal i1
his estimates that he testified that
the plant at Little Falls would cost
1858, 900 to duplicate, That is severa
thousand dollars higher than some
OF our wise men would put it at, and
shows of how little value this sex
peril testimony is.
The testimony for both sides is
probably completed, but there may
he more to submit.
The testimony already in will al
once be made up in book form, max
ing probably 500 pages of type
writing, and then both sides will
review it, and IT, either wants tC
submit further matter they will
probably be allowed to do so. If nc
further testimony is to be taken il

for the argument.

board at the Windsor hotel for both.
He also made arrangements to. leave
the boy there to attend school. '9 ~
O. J. Kaatz, who was then prop
rietor, made the complaint against
Kelly. Kaatz claims that
Kelly, after stating that he
was going to Royalton for day or
two, and would return, took every
thing ct value he possessed from the
hotel and went to St. Cloud instead.
When Kelly left he owed about IS.
Learning that he was at st. Cloud,
the chief of police at that place was
notified to watch him. The officer
informed Kelly that he had better
settle his board here, and Kelly
exhibited an express order which he
stated he would forward at once.
Mr.. Kaatz never received, the order.
but Kelly was allowed to leave St.
Cloud without being arrested. Kelly
was traced to Anoka. Tuesday
night his son received a letter from
his father, and the next morning he
also left the city. 1t is thought that
instead OF sending the express order
Kelly himself had it cashed. This
he denies, stating that it was mailed
by him to Mr.. Kaatz. He also denies
having sent for the boy, although he
stated that he had instructed the
boy to come to him always If he was
In trouble. He also denies having
intended to defraud the hotel keeper
and claims to have told him that as
his business was sometimes very dull
he might be delinquent in the matter
of his board bill at times. =,
Kelly was taken before Justice
Shaw this morning. He pleaded not
