brushed against his stirrups. He
would tell Ollie how impossible 1t was
for him to 60 so far away as Europe
without letting her know Of his love
and asking her to wait awhile until he
should come back less crude and in
complete, better proportioned for hav-
ing measured himself by other stand
ards. What q chnrl he had been for
getting so vexed with her that morn
ing! Everything she said showed her
interest In him, and II she did prick
him with her little patronizing airs it
was the result Of her being the sole
companion Of the man who had to
look after him and his interests and
who doubtless had often consulted her.
By the time he reached the outer
gate to his own parklike inclosure
Olivia stood absolved In his loyal
heart. She was altogether lovely and
trustworthy. He. Tom Broxton, was
an Ill hammered cub. not worthy to
button her pretty boots. Sun never
shone upon sweeter maiden. 1t was
meet and proper! he should go through
some sort of probationary toll to rem
der him less unworthy Of her. He
never could be quite worthy Of her
oh, no. never! But she would be his
after q little while. all his. His pulses
bounded joyously. Life was assuming
roster tints with the passing Of each
moment 1t made him glad to think
1t would be in his power to crafty
her every wish. Let her wish for never
so costly or unattainable q thing.
For your sake. my sweet, / am glad
of all the wealth that Is mine. glad OF
the store of gems hidden away some
where, all for you. Ollie-all for you,
nv beloved! The breath Of wild
clematis filled his nostrils; birds piped
musically In the larch branches over
his head; splashes Of sunshine fecked
the brown earth Of the narrow bride
path. He whistled aloud In the full
ness Of his boyish content. At rapid
canter he swung into the open before
the Hall door.
A strange group clustered about his
front doorsteps sent him forward with
bound. Jessy was there leaning over
something that lay prone on the veran-
da floor. Martin. his own yard man,
was flinging his legs over the horse
Clarence Westover had ridden away
from the Matthews gate an hour be-
fore. Westover. was walking up and
down, with barred head and blanched
cheeks, wringing his hands and giving
wildly impossible orders to everybody
at once. Still, white and motionless,
Olivia, his Ollie. lay the central fig
ure Of this excited group.
Toms tall form was soon added to 1t.
He pushed Westover away without
apology. His grieved young face was
terrible In its stern wrath.
"You have killed her. How dared
you mount her on an untried horse"
Westover was too utterly miserable
to resent this masterful arraignment.
"An idoit fired a gun behind the
hedge. Both horses bolted. Broxton.
II she dies I'll blow my brains out"
"You have none to blow out" said
Tom, with brutal candor. Then, stoop-
ing and lifting the unconscious girl In
his arms, he swung rapidly through
the door and up the stairway, followed
by q wailIng and useless group.

The Canadian lucI,: Wins Again.

Montreal, Aug. THE Canadian
yacht Red Coat won from the Ameri-
can Minnesota yesterday in the inter-
national series for the Seawanhaka
cup. The result of the race shows that
before the wind, in light breeze, the
American boat can develop superior
qualities, as in the esecond leg, ostensibly
before the wind, she made gain on
Red Coat of AZ minutes, and again re-
duced lead by 81 seconds. But a
squall which developed during the last
two legs showed that the Minnesota
was not so good in the gale which
made the Canadian yacht the winner.
Minnesota finished minutes and 5S
seconds after Red Coat.

MISS ZIMMERMAN
NOW A DUCHESS
Daughter Of American Millionaire the
Bride Of the Duke of
Manchester.
Manchester.
(By Associated Press. J


LONDON, Nov. 19.-An inspection of the
register of the Marylebone Parish Church
to-day shows that the reported marriage
OF the Duke of Manchester to Miss Helene
Zimmerman, of Cincinnati, is true. The
ceremony occurred last Wednesday after
noon. The couple are now in Ireland.
When the Dowager Duchess of Man
chester was asked this morning # the
report Of the marriage was correct, she
denied it absolutely. She evinced extreme
displeasure at the idea of her son marry
ing Miss Zimmerman.
Subsequently the Dowager Duchess
went to the church, inspected the records
and found, to her great surprise, the mar
riage. had occurred.
Canon Barker, who officiated at the
wedding, relates how Mr.. Lambart, one
OF the Duke of Manchester's supporters,
when notifying him of the Dukes desire
to be married, described the prospective
bride as IAN American heiress with ten
thousand a year now and unlimited pros
poets. as her father is one Of the richest
men in America
According to the Daily Mail, the mar
riage was the outcome of a long and ro-
mantle attachment, but it was only last
June. to use the words of the Duke him
self, that they discovered they had been
in love with each other all the time
They will sail for New York next Sat
urday.
The Duke wishes it to be known that
he married for love. He has not asked,
and does not hope. for a dowry with the
lady.
..The couple will settle at Tangerage."
