CHAPTER VII.
AGNES MURDOCH,

In quarter of the city which is
rapidly surrendering to the relentless
Entertainments of trade, there still
stand few old-fashioned houses, the
sole survivors of what was once an
aristocratic settlement.
One by one their fellows have been
Slapped and swept away by the resist
less tide of commerce, until these an
Client dwellings, stubbornly contest
ing position already lost, now rear
their ,sepulchral brownstone fronts in
stiff and solitary grandeur-huge sar-
cophagi in q busy mart.
One of these houses stands well
back from the street line, the tradi-
tional backyard of the ordinary New
York dwelling having been sacri-
feed, in this instance, to make room
for tiny garden, which is separated
from the street by tall spiked iron
railing, behind which grows an ar
Dor vitae hedge. The former serves
as a defense against the marauding
of the irrepressble metropolitan
gamin; while the latter confers upon
the occupants of the garden a SEM
blance of protection from the GU
rious gaze Of the passers-by.

cry on Wednesday.

George Leyrer died at the Della
ware Hospital yesterday afternoon.
On Wednesday last he was stabbed
in the back and the blade of the
knife pierced his lung.
A wife and family survive him at

cles that Leyrer for nearly two
DAYS was suffering from delirium
tremens and that he had to be
strapped to his cot. He gradually
weakened and death was the re-
suit. Coroner Vandever will hold
an inquest on the body. Conrad
who did the cutting has engaged
counsel to defend his case. His
claims is self defense as he claims
Leyrer had raised the bung hook
to strike him and that the knife
was used in free fight.
Conrad had been in Wilmington
but a week, and has wife and

It Is with great pleasure that can state
: few facts that / trust may be some help
to DR.. Torbert Of Wilmington. Mr.. Daniel
Medford, Of Annapolis Nd, came to my
house three weeks ago. with dreadful
sore limb; In fact 1t looked more like
rotten limb than anything that could
compare it to. Mr.. Medford has been q
terrible sufferer for the past 10 or IA years,
At times he has been compelled to keep
his bod for months. During this time he
hss doctored with many good physicians
from Baltimore and Annapolis. receiving
no benefit and being told he could never
bs cured. Mr.. Medford was under careful
treatment by Dr.. Torbert for three weeks
and con truly say there has been most
wonderful change and improvement The
flesh 10 beginning to assume Its natural
color. and am sure ID on the way to
permanent cure Three weeks ago 1t
truly looked like q hopeless case.

that of an artist in beautiful and
charming woman.
AT any rate" he added, after mo-
ment's hesitation, II hope so; for I
have heard that she is as good IS be-
trothed to another man."
The reporters keen ear detected in
his friends tones touch of genuine
sadness of which the artist himself was
probably unconscious. Laying his
hand gently upon Sprague's shoulder,
he said, gravely:
hope SO, too, old man; for you are
one Of those foolish men whose lives
can be ruined by an unhappy love af-
fair. l suppose it's useless to'preach
to you-more's the pity-but, in my
humble opinion, no woman's love is
worth the sacrifice of good mans
life"
ayes, I know your opinion on that
subject, you old cynic," replied
Sprague, but you need not worry ON
my account; not yet, at all events. I
am still safe; the portrait is almost
| finished; and 1 should be fool to walk
into such scrape with my eyes wide
OPEN"
"Humph!" calculated Sturgis, skep-
tically, when man makes fool of
himself for woman, it alters little
whether his eyes be open or shut; the
result is the same"
Spraguelaughed somewhat uneasily;
and then, as if to change the subject:
Come and see the picture" he said.
II should like your opinion of it,"
The reporter consulted his watch.
II shall have to come back some
other time for that" he replied; II
must hurry off now to keep my ap-
pointment with Mr.. Dunlap
He started toward the door; but
suddenly facing Sprague again, he
held out his hand to the artist, who
pressed it cordially.
Goodbye, old man." he said. af-
fectionately "be as sensible as you
can, and don't wantonly play with the
fire."
And before Sprague could frame an
answer the reporter was gone.
The artist remained thoughtfully
standing untn his friends footsteps
had died away in the distance. Then
he turned and walked slowly into the
studio. Here, in the middle of the
room, stood an easel, upon which was
the portrait of beautiful young
girl.
Sprague gazed at it long and earn
estly. Then he heaved an almost in
audible sigh.
"Sturgis is right" he said to him
self, turning away at last, "and-and
l am q COMPOUNDED idiot!''
