side. He had just poured himself another glass of wine as the ladies rose to leave. Florence, on pretense of picking up some- thing from the table, managed to pass her hand oyer the glass, and in that second, unobserved by anybody, few grains of curious looking powder fell into the glass. The next moment she had passed on her way smiling, leaving ruin and misery be- hind her.
 Molle slipped quietly from the drawing room to the cool garden, determining not to reappear until the gentlemen came in. Flor enee accompanied her. and the two paced up and down the walks for ten minutes or so. Then they entered the room again, just as the men appeared through the opposite door
 Basil, of course, came straight across to her-if indeed, such an uncertain, stagger- ing gait could be called straight. His face was deeply flushed. and his voice thick, and louder than was its wont.
 The girl shranl1 back in alright, hor- rible pang clutching at her heart. Could this be her noble. handsome lover, her brave chevaler?
 She retreated before his approach, and, with Florence, again passed into the gar den through the open window

 was about to speak but he cut short her
 half-uttered words by stumbling violently
 against her. and then falling headlong to the ground, where he lay as if in d fit. Molle's scream brought out the other
 men. and they raised the prostrate form
 and conveyed it to a bedroom, where Basil might rest until he resumed the faculties of sentient being.
 Miss Seymour sympathized, and pited with outward earnestness but inward
 mockery, and thus ended a most dreadful evening.
 The next day Basil appeared betilnes humbled and contrite, and began a long string of apologies. He could not tell how it had happened. he had drunk so little, it was ineXplainable, etc.
 Mollie waited until he had finished. then with despairing gesture wrenched off her engagement ring and held it towards him. T cannot fulfill my promise" she said in a muffied voice. q will not be the wife of man who drinks
 Basil flung himself on his knees before her. "Molliel darling!' he cried. will
 you break my heart? I will never touch
 wine again. I swear it you! Oh, will you not believe me, and let everything go on
 as it was before? I know I am not worthy of you, but do trust mel" She shook her head, while the tears
 rolled down her pale cheeks. Il cannot Alas! I cannot"
 Basil hung his head and buried his face

Mollie and her perfections the subject of their talk
 Basil began to thing that this girl was very interesting after all. Certainly she was handsome; and he found himself won dering at the strange light which shot from her eyes.
 'Yes, she is a darling! Miss Seymour was saying softly. "So true, so earnest! If she has a fault-but there what am l thinking about? I must not talk treason"
 "Pray proceedr laughed her nearer. II am not afraid that you will utter aught that is reasonable. Mollie has told me so much of your kindness and friendship towards her; and, you know. I ought to be warned in time if she has any terrible falling ,.., thing! I was only goinfi to observe that she is so good, so pure herself that she is apt to be a trfe severe on the pecca- dilloes of others. She lets them worry her, and is apt to brood over them"
 As she spoke, Florence raised her won- derful eyes and looked meaningly at her nearer.
 He flushed scarlet to the roots of his hair for that glance told him as plainly as words that Mollie had been talking of him. A feeling of irritation came over him and he wake abruptly away.
 Miss Seymo tc ;p ed to herself. The poison was beginning to work; and, if she judged 1 CT man alright he would try to prove that he was not to be held in lead I,g strings by any w,-"an, even by her he loved best.
 My medicine may not be needed after all," she thought. But, at all events, l will have it at hand in case of emergency"
 From that time Mollie watched her fiance anxiously, and he, conscious of her gaze, seemed determined to avoid being moved by it. Although previously he had often refrained from wine altogether, he never did so now, and the one glass became two, sometimes three or more.
 Poor girl! how her heart ached as she acknowledged to herself that she was pow erless. Since that first time she had never ventured to remonstrate, but premonition of evil was always present with her, and her heart grew heavy and careworn.
 Little did she guess that her friend" was forever p,uring false hoods into her lovers ears, telling him that Mollie con- tinually complained of his habits of drink Ire whereas tfe girl had never referred to the subject again. She was too sore, too miserable to speak of it.
 One evening they were dining out, and she was sitting next to Basil at the dinner table, Miss Seymour being on his other

in his hands. For fully five minutes they stood thus, without word being spoken. Then with a new light in his eyes, he said: "Listen, Molie, I shall leave home this day, and, unless you become my wife, I will never return! pledge you my honor that I will not again touch anything stronger than water If I keep that prom ise. will you renew your yows!' And If you do not?" she breathed.
 His brows contracted with pain. "Can yots not believe me?' he said. Well, then, let this be the test. I do not write, you will know that the temptations of wine have been stronger than my love for you"
 Mollie sighed again. She knew naught of that mischief-worling drug, and could not imagine how man who did not really love strong drink should have presented such a spectacle as did Basil on the previous even- ing.
 And so they parted-he going to his house in town she continuing her uneventful life at Fairholme, longing for the news which she hoped September would bring. It was not long before Miss Seymour knew of the compact, for, indeed, no att tempt at secrecy was made. The weeks dragged slowly by and Basil 8 anxiety to see his little love grew daily more intense. True, she had not absolutely agreed to abide by his terms, but he felt sure that her loyal heart could not resist him. He had forgotten Miss Seymours very existence, and, had he reme embered it, would not have dreamed of connecting her in any way with his destiny At last the three months had elapsed, and he thought he might venture to write to Mollie and ask her permission to return to Fairholme. He wrote a long, earnest letter, telling her that he had kept his good resolutions and imploring her to give him a welcome.
 For days he waited for an answer It never came; and. while his heart was con- stunned with grief and anxiety, Mollie's was filled with bitter mourning, for she could but imagine that he had found him. self weaker than he had supposed, and un- able to keep his VOW.
 One day. just before Michaelmas. Basil came face to face with Miss Seymour in the street.
 He stopped before her, embarrassed and excited. 'Mollie-how Is she?" he asked almost breathlessy.
 Florence looked pathetically up at him. "She is quite well in health; but, oh, Mr. Reid, I am so sorry for you. You remem- Der warned you of her one fault - she seems incapable of forgiving and forget ting" 3y '-

he left for Wisconsin where he followed
farming for several years. In '62 he

tractor on the new road that was then

also resided at Owatonna for a time

he lived until the spring OF 1868, when
he came to Renville county, located a
homestead in Birch Cooley and filed on
100 acres. In the fall OF the same year
he removed his family to the home that
he had built for them, the house being
in keeping with that OF the few other
settlers in those early wild days. To
this farm he added from time to time
tracts Of land until he increased his
realty possessions to $40 acres. During
the thirty years that he lived on his
farm he met with as much if not more
hardships than any of the early pio-
neers. A little more than two years
ago he came to Morton and purchased
4 lot and erected thereon a neat and
comfortable home and enjoyed life up
to the time he was stricken with pa
ralysis last August. Fourteen children
were born to him, eight OF whom sur-

(where he is free to work or not, as he
likes) compares very favorably indeed
with that of his fellows in the Kimber-
ley compounds. In these, where an
enormous number of natives are herded
together under the strictest supervision,
lest they should escape with concealed
diamonds and sell them on their own
account, and have to buy all the neccssa-
ries of life from the company-in other
words, to accept payment in kind, a
practice that is here punishable under
the truck acts, the blacks are obliged
to sign contract to work in the mines
for three years, but in Johannesburg no
such rule can be enforced, and the ma
tives are free to leave or not at will AS
they are not very reliable workers, the
result is that a great deal OF the work
which under the conditions desired by
the capitalists would be done by the
natives for a song was until the war
broke out done by well-paid white la
Dor. And thus it can be seen that
mines which have been paying from 80
to 60 per cent to their shareholders I'M
der the old regime might casily-as one
OF the managers has claimed-bc made
to pay another 40 per cent under more
