Philip was quiet, studious, reserved
and somewhat delicate, while John was
big. athletic, impulsive, and, although
naturally bright, impatient of study.
Each found in the other some quality

fitted for Harvard, and were loyal
ehums throughout their university
course. That finished, however, their
paths in life separated. Philip studied
medicine and became successful
practitioner in his native New Eng
land town. John adopted a business
career, connecting himself with Chi

member. But their friendship did not

for the jAonor and happiness Of the two

The Importance of What He Achieved
In That Country.
The splendor of Wellington's serv-
ices in European warfare has to a. con-
siderable extent obscured the import
ance of what he achieved in India. in
the field and in council; yet this gave
proof of his best qualities, and was
characteristic in the highest degree.
says the Fortnightly Review He be-
came the most prominent and distin.
:guished soldier in our army in India
at grave crisis, when our empire was
endangered in no doubtful sense: his
conduct mainly contributed to the sue
cess OF our arms. His first essays in
the field were not fortunate; he made
night attack in the campaign against
Tippoo without accommodating. which
naturally failed; he was rather under a
cloud at the siege of Seringapatam.
But his administrative power and his
faculty Of command were seen in his
direction of the Nizam's army; and he
was rightly appointed to the head OF
affairs at Mysore after the conquest
OF that Kingdom and the death of Tip
poo, though his brother conferred the
appointment upon him. His military
genius, however, was most conspicu-
GUS and exhibited itself with peculiar
clearness in his great and decisive vic
tory of Assaye. : sss:s p

There are mo more dainty patterns

and strict swberness are the watch
words of the wall furnishings of

shadows. according to the dealers in
wall papers, old fashions care to be re-
vived. The colonial 'primness is in
favor, and when a modern house is

to wall papars it has a dignity that re-
minds one af the square coats and

large dark eyes that sattEacted him !;
perhaps it was the unwavering reserve
and dignity of her manners and the
fact that there was mot "a trace Of CO.
quetry about her, flor the doctor had a
horror of coquetry, and until recently
had believed it to ihe a dominant t.feml-
nine trait.
The upshot Of the matter was that
DR.. Philip Penrose, without having any
certain knowledge of Mrs. Felton, S
past life, asked her to be his wife, and
was firmly refused. Pressed for a rea-
son, she answered that .she,did not love
him. To which he calmly replied that
as she was the only woman he ever
would or could love, he intended to
win her affection, and was willing to
wait years, if need be, to attain that
result. Philips determined attitude
forced more explicit reply from Mrs.
FELTON,, and she finally admitted that
to their union in that her husband was
not dead but living!
Quivering like deer under the blow,
Philip began involuntarily piecing to-
gether in his mind certain ideas, the
chief of which was that FELTON, had
been the maiden name of Johns wife.
and on a sudden the awful truth flash
ed upon him. ''John Carleton-he is
your husband?" he said huskily. For
answer she burst into uncomfortable
weeping. When little calmer she
told her story; of how John had begun
to entertain an unreasonable jealousy
of her; of how they had quarreled, and
that he had said words to her that her
pride could not brook, and Of how, in
a moment of madness, she had gone
away, determined never to live with
him again; Of her subsequent repent
ance of her rash act, and Of how pride
and shame had kept her from return
ing to him. s.z"e2 :..,sz@ 9:zf S

Of Philip Penrose's mind that night
as be sat in his study, his pen never
faltered in the message he was writ
ing to John Carleton. The answer
that came by return post was to the
effect that John Carleton utterly re-
pudiated his wife; he never would for
give her desertion of, him and was
about to seek divorce.
And SO there came to Philip Penrose
the greatest temptation Of his life. All

GUSTAvUS YOUNG DORSEY.
"A Well Known Young Man Dies
on his Way Home to Spend
Christmas.

Gusta'us Young Dorsey, famlliarly
known to many residents of Wadsworth
as Gus Dorsey. departed this life at
Stockton CAL, Thursday last at the
age Of thirty-six years.
He had been employed in the oil
fields near Bakersfield for nurnber,of
years past and was on his way here to
spend Christmas with his mother, sis.
ter, and friends. when called to his final
rest.
He was suffering from a slight cold
when he commenced his journey from
Bakersfield, which developed into
pneumonia so rapidly that he was taken
from the train at Stockton. Medical
skill did not avail and in one short week
his soul had passed beyond.
The remains arrived here this morn
ing. The funeral will take place from
Union Church tomorrow 18th. inst, at
D p. m.
The deceased came here from Cal
ifornia when boy with his parents.
For a number Of years he was in the
employ of the Southern Pacific as fire
man and engineer, leaving here to
seek fields and pastures new, finally
locoating in Bakersfield where he
gained the high esteem Of his employ
ers as a careful. skilled workman.
In his death we are again reminded
that life is uncertain. Doubtless when
he started for Wadsworth his heart
beat with love and hope. After the
many years absence he would soon see
mother and loved ones and the friends
Of his boyhood They will see him but
the old sunny smile will not greet them
and it will be only to tenderly lay him
to sleep forever.
