blow.
"You think you will win Blanche and
get her money" she replied, with
guarded rancor, shut you might as well
renounce your intentions; she'll never
look in your direction. She can see
what has influenced YOU"
"My God! Mrs. Goddard" exclaimed
the young man, with look of deep
pain. "don't misjudge me. If I have
dared to feel the most intense admire
ton for her, I have not entertained even
the. slightest hope of ever gaining her
favor. No man could live near her, and
see her constant misery and witness
her beautiful character and nature and
keep from admiring her, but as to dar-

"Good-by, Mr.. Talley; don't forget

but he seemed too deeply stunned to re-

peared down the road he turned and
saw Blanche standing by his side. In
stead of watching the departing We

fixed, inquiring gaze.

questioned, considerably.
"Nothing-only-" he stammered.
"I-I-she-"
Wonders will never cease" said
Blanche. care you, too, in love with

declared, recovering little of his

She looked into his face thoughtful

"You certainly had the queerest
look on your face I ever saw on it.
She must-did she say anything that
hurt your feelings?"
"She intimated that I was showing
myself capable of very presumptious
intentions" he answered, desperately.
"She is so strange" sighed our her

A carriage was entering one of the
gates at the foot of the sinuous drive.
"It is Lottie Dean,' said Blanche

turned the young man, and they
crossed the venanda together, and
stood on the steps waiting for the ad.

CHAPTER VII.

In the morning, before the hour for
leaving for the ship. Goddard saw his
wife walking about in the cherries
garden. The day was moderately
warm and still. and the sun shone
clearly. He went out and joined her.
His face was careworn and sallow.
She looked up as he approached.
"a beautiful day. to sail on" she
said, with bewitching smile.
eyes, indeed" he said, looking her
over from head to foot. He discov-
cred fresh charms in her in the new
gray travelling dress and hat. These
things made the parting pangs in his
breast all the more keen.
81 see you like my gown" she said.
reading his admiration in his glance.
cit is pretty, isn't it?"
Eyes. it is very pretty, but that is
not wonderful. You never wore any,
thing that wasn't just what it should
be-"
She glanced at the veranda, on the
edge of which stood her trunks, hand
bags and rolls of steamer rugs, pill
lows and a deck chair.
"You see James has got erything
ready"
"But Mrs"
"Oh, Lucy has agreed to meet me at
the ship, of course! She won't fail,
you may be sure.''
Mrs. Goddard took a sealed envelope
from her pocket and gave it to him.
Don't, under any circumstances,
lose or misplace these" she cautioned
him.
"But what are they?' he asked, feel
ing small object through the paper.
''It contains a card and key, dear.
The card is the address of private
letter box on Sixth avenue, and the
key is to open, whenever you like.
box No. $685."
Goddard fumbled them distastefully
without comment for moment, but
with furtive glance toward the
house, his wife took them from him,
and with a playful air put them into
the pocket of his coat.
"You know," she explained, with a
little frown, ''it may be that shall
want to write to you in some other
way than by directing my letters to
Lyndhurst."
'Oh, Jeanne, these awful-awful de-
tails
"And here is London address" Mrs.
Goddard interrupted, her tone sharp
and businesslike, as she gave him an
other card. ''It has only Mrs. Nolan's
address and name on it. All your let
tiers must be sent to her."
He stood so helplessly before her that
she had to place that card also into his
pocket.
ST am almost afraid you will be too
weak and silly to do all tell you," she
said, sharply. eff you fail, shall never
see you again, and" She did not fin
ish her threat, but the suggestion of it
had the desired effect on him.
SCI will try to do all you want, Jeanne,
and hope it will result in our ultimate
happiness"
After breakfast, as they all stood in
the dining-room, the carriage drove up
to the door, followed by wagon to
move the luggage. Then Mrs. Goddard
shook hands with Blanche and wiped
her eyes ON her handkerchief.
''Good-by." she said; do kiss me
again."
Blanche complied; her own eyes were
dry and full of sweet, childlike wonder.
The almost sleepless night she had
passed had only deepened the mystery
which, in her eyes, enveloped the wife
of her guardian. Mrs. Goddard moved
gracefully ont into the hall, stin WHIP
ing her eyes. Talley followed. his man

SONG OF THE HUMAN.

.
A song OF merry cheer,
Full Of lieht-hearted mirth and gay,
OF children happy in their play;
"A song to charm the listening ear
OF God or man to hear.
A song Of faith and trust,
OF youths unbounded confidence
In Heavens o'erruling providence
To save the righteous cause and just
Out from the battles dust.
A song Of courage high,
OF readiness to face the foe,
To ward the thrust. to deal the blow;
OF resolution not to fay,
To conquer or to die.
A song Of victory won,
OF right defended on the field,
OF honor saved with dinted shield
With torch alight, the long course run,
All OF life's duty done.

PEAR SYRUP.

\ few days ago DR.. J. NJ. Carn, of
Centreville, this county, sent us Il
sample of syrup made from the lie
Conte pear, so commonly grown in
this section, and for which profit
able market is seldom found.
The syrup was made by Taylor
Williams, a prosperous colored far
mer Of this county. 1t is a beautiful
color, as clear as any syrup can pos
sibly be made, and has delicious
flavor.
y common cider press was used by
Williams in extracting the juice
from the pears, and the syrup waS
made in the usual way. 1t yielded
about One-siXth of one gallon of
syrup to six of juice, which We are
told by some syrup makers Is Il much
larger yield than can be secured
from sugar cane-if good, thick
syrup be made.
This may yet be the logical way to
turn LeCOnte pears to some value.
If such pretty syrup can be made
from them-with such yicld-it is
reasonable to suppose that sugar
might be produced from the same.

THE G. A, & F..

Hearing that Messrs. Saxon &
Hanks, the contractors Of the GeOr-
gia Pine Railroad, which, by the
way, is now known as the Geargia,
Alabama & Florida, had commenced
track laying in earnest, our reporter
walked out to the scene of operations
yesterday to see with his own eyes
the work in progress. The old say
ing that seeing is believing" is a
very true one, and what he saw out
beyond the city limits convinced him
that very soon our fair city will have
the long sought-fOr northern con-
nectiOn.
Arriving at the yard, part of the
Woodward tract, donated by the peO-
pie Of Leon county to the company,
our reporter fortunately found Mr..
Hanks and Mr.. Gansley, the en-
gineer-in-chief, from whom he was
able to obtain such information as
he desired.
There is now six miles of steel
rails on the ground, that will be laid
down as fast as men can do it.
Another shipload of rails will be
here by the first of September, and
that will complete the contract Of
Messrs. Saxon & Hanks.
Their contract is to grade, cross
tie and lay the track for thirteen
miles from this city, that is to say,
to a point one mile beyond the Ock-
lockOnee River. The bridging of the
river also comes in their contract.
At present they have some thirty
five hands at work making connec-
ton with the c., T. & G.. R. R.They
also have engine No. 4 of the G. A.
g. F., with Engineer Roberts, of
Bainbridge, in charge, which, with
four fiat cars, was busily conveying
iron along the line.
Mr.. Hanks said that they intended
TO complete their contract by the
middle Of September, and that to do
this work they will increase their
rack laying force as fast as hands
can be secured. When a full force is
secured they will, he says, lay from
one-half to three-quarters of a mile
of track in ono dow

BASE BALL.

The rain did not stop the ball
game, apd in spite of mud and
weather the home club met the Chip
ley club;at the park and played d six
inning game; then the rain set in
and oh how it did rain! The players
and spectators ran for the grand
stand like sheep, and climbed over
the railing like company attacking
a Philippine fort.
The game did not begin until late
and it was nearly 4 o'clock before the
umpire called "play ball" owing to
the fact that the guests and rival
mines were late in : arriving, due
largely to the weather and bad roads
between the city and Camp Hender-
SON
At length amid hoOtings and all
sorts Of cries the clubs got them
selves together and the game started.
The makeup was as follows: Talla-
hassee-Pagc, right field; Williams,
left field; McLin, third base; Bron-
son, catcher; Costa, second base; Ell
lott, centre field; Sheets, first base ;
Taylor, pitcher and Wilson, short
stop. The Chipleys were Hawk,
catcher; B. Ferrior, third base; Ket-
chum, second base; LiddOn, short
stop; II. Farrior, first base; Seasons,
right field; r. Hedgeboom, left field !;
r. FarriOr, centre field and IL.
Hodgtboom, pitcher. The umpire
F. B. Galloway, of Chipley, and Mr..
Garter, of Marianna, made the off
cial score.
The whole game was a very good
and close one. That is the teams were
well matched. 1t took some time for
the home clubtO getonto the 'sneak"
game Of the Chipleys but when they
did they began to forge ahead. If
the game had been played to the fin
lsh, the home team would have no
dOubf won. As it was the score stood
6 to IS in favor Of the Chipleys at
the end of the sixth inning, when the
rain came down in such torrents as
forced the umpire to call the game.
There was much fine playing sew
eral times throughout the game.
McLin's two curious fowls and fine
fly strike caused a shout and a yell.
OF the Chipleys, Hawks and H.
HOgcboom made fine strikes and did
well, Page made the finest catch
IN the game, and Bronson, Costa and
Sheets made fine plays. Page made
two!>cOres, one in the first and an
othtr in the third inning. Bronson
scored in the sixth as did Costa also.
Sheets scored in the fourth inning.
OF the Chipleys, Hawks made a
ScOle in the fourth; B. Ferrior in the
thiEl; Ketchum in the fourth; r.
Fersior one in. each of the third and
fouFth, and H. HogeboOm one in the
third inning. The umpire tried
faithfully not to favor the Chipleys,
but: he did eveiedtly, two or three
times.
