Diana was recovering her compos-
ure. Freville gazed at the girl half
incredulously.
"Still in Curzon street-youT
"Why where else?'
81 thought you-were--"
"Well?"

Di laughed.
"You say it as if you meant buried

"To Alec Travers."
"Alec Travers, The last man. Why,

I must go. But we shall expect you
at nine"
Mrs. Lestrange was too much upset
by the adventure of the afternoon to
appear at dinner or to receive their
visitor afterward, much as she wished
to do So TO Diana she intrigued the
giving of her message of gratitude.
Diana. in simple evening gown of
white, was sitting in the little boudoir
off the conservatory when Freville was
announced.
Mother is too ill to come down
stairs tonight. She will thank you
herself another day; | cannot thank
Won enough. We owe our lives to
you. l shudder when / think Of that
awful race from Piccadilly Circus"
Then the girl broke off. But tell
me why you thought l was married;
and to Alec Travers of all people"
Freville looked confused. He had
only just dropped Diana's hand.
Il have been away two years"
II know that"
Il went away after the Leighan ball
do you remember it,"
Di did not answer. She could not
say enough without saying too much.
Freville went on:
81 heard you say something that
night did not mean to-until you
spoke did not know you were there.
You were in a recess in the landing
at the top of the stairs, behind some
yellow drapery; l can see it all now
just as wildly as l could then"
Well"
"You said, You need not think l
care about Freville.' | thought, OF
course Travers had been pressing you
about me-"
Diana looked puzzled. After a
while she said:
$50 that was why you went away"
"That was why | went away" said
Freville. simply.
Diana walked across the room to an
escritoire and took out bundle Of pa
pers. she had curious habit of keep
ing the cards Of her engagements, as
sort of informal social diary.
Just two years ago. Yes; there it
wasl Lady Gallanter; At home, four
to six; and in the corner, Mr.. Henry
Neville.
Diana handed the card to Freville
without a word, just indicating the
date with her forefnger. 1t was that
OH which he had started, the day af-
ter the ball.
"NIusic is a closed book to yOu," she
said, quietly, "but in those days we
music lovers were divided into two
camps, Nevilleites and anti-Nevillites.
Neither l nor Alec Travers cared for
Henry Neville's playing. 1t was the
only tie between us"
Diana looked into his eyes and the
smile about her lips deepened percep-
tibly as she added
Neville is very like Freville. is it
not, especially round the corner Of
some yellow drapery? "-Gentlewom-

flee Of the report that General Butler
has recrossed the Tugela river, and is
marching on Ladysmith. On the con-
trary, according to the information of
the war Office at the present moment,
there is every Indication that things are
quiet at the front, and that no imme-
diate movement is anticipated.
Regarding the dispatch from Lady
smith saying that Buller's guns have
been heard there, it is surmised that
some practice may have been going on
with the new batteries which have Just
reached the front. 5s

CHICAGO, Feb. 6.--At a meeting OF
the Building Trades council, labor diff.
fculties reached what is thought to be a
crisis. The business agent of the Hod
Carriers and Building Laborers' union
was ordered to call off men at work in
every building in Chicago where the
new rules of the building contractors
were posted. This means that 5000
men will be ordered to strike. In adj
dition to this number 5000 carpenters,
it is asserted, will walk out next Satur-
day. :.5a aG a, q

bers earlier in the day. A fierce strug-

Durham Special Says There Was
Very Severe Fighting on
Sunday.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The war office state
ment that it has received no .confrma-
tion OF the report that General Butler
has recrossed the Tugela river has failed
to shake public belief that operations Of
tremendous Importance are proceeding
at the Tugela, and it is thought that
either thedenial was prompted by a de-
sire to keep the military movements as
secret as possible until something is ac-
complished or that General Butler is
keeping the home officials in the dark
pending results 1t is I obviously ex.
tremely difficult to extract the truth
from the conflicting statements shroud-
ing Buffers movement But most
Of the comments agree that the ag-
gregate of the items tends to confirm the
belief that movements Of Importance are
in progress. ss5s, .
It is true that the correspondents at
General Buffers headquarters convey
the impression that his main force is
still south Of the Tugela river,
but It is easily conceivable that
the dispatches are SO censored
as to convey false impression. Posi-
bly,, though dated Sunday and Sunday
night, the dispatches were written prior
to the movements reported to have com
menced Friday. This has already hap
pened on various occasions, dispatches
being retained by the censor and redated
when actually released.
Whatever may be the actual situation,
there seems no doubt that General Bull
ler's preparations for fresh attempt to
relieve Ladysmith were completed
Thursday or Friday, and though the
start was possibly deferred from the
date first selected, it will not be long be-
fore tits definitely known that General
4Buller's forces are again fighting their
way towards Ladysnith. Those, how
ever, who expect General Butler to reach
the beleaguered town Monday night
seem to have forgotten the presence Of
the Beers. The best informed people,
while sanguine, fully realize that Brit
ish victory can only be achieved. at
heavy cost. iGs +, ~ g.. f .,..,.

TREAT TY SIGNED
Substitute for Clay ton BulWer
Convention Executed at
Washing ton,
Hay and Pauncefote Attaching
Signatures For Resp pectiVe
Countries.
Treaty Gives This Country Full
Power to Construct a Mica
raguan Canal.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.The Hay
Pauncefote treaty, amendatory Of the 4
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, relative to the
construction Of the Nicaragnan cana,
was signed at the state department. by
Secretary Hay and BIT. Hon. Lord
Panncefote Of Preston, for Great Brit
ain. Though the consummation Of the
treaty occupied some time, owing to the
necessity of comparing the two drafts,
there was little formality about the GER
emony, and a convention that is expect
ed to be, for the United States, at least,
OF the most far-reaching Importance and
value, came into being without any
theatrical surroundings. There were
present beside Secretary Hay and Lord
Pauncefote only, Mr.. Bromley, honorary
attache Of the British embassy and
prospective son-in- law Of Lord Paunce-
fote; Sidney Smith, chief Of the diplo-
matte bureau, and William r. Winn,
the faithful and discreet messenger to
the department. of state, who placed the
seals upon the convention, as he has:
upon nearly every treaty of inheritance
to which the United States has been
party for the past so years. The treaty
was at once sent to the president, and
thence to the senate.
| Text Not Given ont.
Secretary Hay declined to make pub
hc the text of the treaty or even to make
any statement as to its details, holding
that courtesy to the senate obliged him
to remain silent until the senate itself
removed the seal of confidence from the
convention. So that all that is now
known OF this convention is that it
amends the Clay yton -Bulwer treaty Of
1850 in such manner that Great Britain
yields to the United States the right to
build a Nicaraguan canal or canal at
any other point on the isthmus without
British anticipation. Most of the other
features in the Clayton -Bulwer treaty
are retained. This is notably true Of
Article No. 5, which guarantees the alb
solute neutrality Of any canal, and the
security of the capital invested. It is
understood that the United States con-
tinues upon itself this obligation to
maintain the naturalization of the cana.
which shall be, moreover, open and free.
1t is also believed that the treaty looks
to an undertaking on this Dojnt. RI
