From Chicago Democrat: During
one of the past weeks when the differ
ent theaters OF the residence districts
OF the city were being enlivened with
the pugilistic prowess OF a certain
fighter a gentleman was persuaded by
his eager son to go to see and hear
the renowned fighter, and as he refused
to go without her, his wife reluctantly
consented to accompany her husband
to the theater. They went and they
returned home at the close Of the per-
Torrance, the wife, whose interests all
lie in the highest Of high cultures, too
full Of disgust to voice her opinion OF
the pugilistic performance. She was
sorry though she hadn't expressed her
emphatic opinion when she heard her
husband innocently telling his children

vulgar. thought, but didn't say any
thing about it because 1 think your

MYSTERIOUS HAND.


Toward twilight, on an August day,
many years ago, two females were
seated by the open window of an an
cient house, situated in New Haven.
Conn.
One of the women was an aged lady
of perhaps seventy, with a light,
CHEEKY face, the very portrait of good
nature and good health, and the other
by her side was Madeline Blackwood,
niece to the old lady, and a pretty,
mild-looking girl, whose years did not
exceed nineteen, whose face bore the
impression of a loving, tender-hearted
girl, innocent and trusting in her ma
ture.
Yes, dear Madeline. ! made my will
last night" the old lady is saying,
"and have made you my heiress,
Madeline"
'Oh, aunt, you overpower me with
your kindness" Madeline answers, In
pleasant voice.
Don't thank me, darling; / only do
as my heart dictates; poor dear, your
path has been a rough one. Four

have no one on earth to whom l could
bequeath my wealth, l have selected
you as my future heiress."
The young girls face betrayed no
surprise, but a light flush overspread
it, and she kissed the ruddy cheeks
OF her fathers sister, as that old lady
pettcd the girls curly head.
I'm not very slckly, darling" the
aged woman went on, nor am l likely

and the aged spinster looked tenderly
at her niece.
"As l do my life. dear aunt" was
the girls answer, as she again kissed
her aunt.
A few moments later the young girl
left the room and her aunt was alone.
For some moments the aged mis-

ended now and Madeline shall never

So unused Miss Blackwood in the
evening twilight, and Madeline Black
wood, shut up in her room in Black
wood house, lay on her white bed,
thinking how she was TO be her maiden
aunt's heiress.
AS three weeks went on there was
more company in the old house now,
for, at old Miss Blackwood's invita-
ton, her married sister, Annetta, and
her husband and eldest son, young
man of five-and-twenty, came to pay
her a summer visit.
For couple OF weeks the old Black
wood house was lively and full of Wis
itors, and Madeline never looked
handsomer, in the old aunt's estima-
ton, than she did in these days. But
this gayety and brightness was but
the prologue to an eventful event.
Late on a misty night in September
after an evening Of more than usual
pleasure among themselves, the in
mates of Blackwood house retired To
their various chambers, destined To
awaken in the morning on a scene OF
great horror.
At the next morning the guests
and Madeline were seated at the break
fast table, when the housemaid came
screaming into the room.
"Oh, Miss Madeline! Oh, my-my-
poor, dear missus Is dead!"
With alarm, terror, and awe they
all hurried up to the old spinster's
chamber, and there. on the bed, with
an expression as II in calm sleep

There were no marks of rough usage
on her, nothing in the room was
touched; she had evidently died sud
denly in the night by heart disease, q
malady which the old lady had been
troubled with lately.
Madeline's grief at her aunt's death
was terrible to witness; people
thought she would go mad; but there
was one who took all quietly, who

Toronto, Nov. 10.-The world"
comments on the report OF the United
Empire trade league on the capacity
OF Canada as a granary for Britain.
The report refers to Manitoba as fol-
lows: Manitoba has an area OF forty
seven millions acres. Deducting ten
million for lakes, rivers, town sites and
waste land, 37,0O0,000 acres are left for
farm cultivation, or homes for 10000
families on 800 acres each, and as up
to now there are only $1,000 farmers
there altogether, that leaves room in
one province for S9.00S more wheat
growers. Surprising. then, we got
them there and each one of them out
OF his $50 acres grew on an average
100 acres at 20 bushels to the acre; il
you figure 1t up you will1ind it is quite
possible for Manitoba alone to supply
Us with all the wheat We require from
abroad. 1t is only a question OF money
and comparatively speaking not money
either. The cost Of one flrst-class bat
tleship (about f750.000) would put 5000
families onto farms In the Northwest,
allowing ESQ to each to find them in
implements, seeds, horses, ETC., and
would keep them until their first crop
was harvested. Five thousand farm
ers, averaging 100 acres of wheat each
at 20 bushels to the acre, means an ex-
ira 100000 bushels, for II that
scheme Is not liked Britain would put
duty on foreign wheat. In addition
to the wheat lands of Manitoba there
are the millions OF acres in Assiniboia,
