CLASS 10 GO OUTING
AT THE RESERVE.

J The members Of the Class of 'ol
fin shed their con- m :nement h larl y
in a most delightful way. After all the
worry and excitement incident to COM
mencement. tired and weary nerves
we're rested by a quiet days outing at
the Reservation. The start was made
before sunrise. and when the cool morn
ing air had sufficiently sharpened every
appetite, q real campers breakfast. con-
sisting Of bacon, eggs, bread and cof-
ice, vas prepared and most thoroughly
enjoyed.
After the Reservation was reached
the camp was pitched under the
spreading shade Of the tall poplars
that line the river bank. and amid such
pleasant and restful surroundings the
hours passed all too quickly. Some
enjoyed a plunge in the inviting waters
Of the river; others devoted their en-
ergies in securing some remarkably
}ne photographs. while others just
dreamed the hours away.
After a delightful lunch the time was
passed in calling to mind the many
pleasant features Of school-day associ-
atoms. and as story after story of vari-
ous escapades and achievements went
the rouhd the harsh lines OF the more
disagreeable phrases and ~recollections
Of school lie begun to suffer and the
never to be forgotten pleasant expert
ences and memories 50 dear to the
alumnus commenced to stand out
more and more clearly and distinctly.
The ride home In the moonlight
was not the least pleasant feature Of

remembered than the last day spent so
quietly and so thoughtfully by the
banks Of the pleasant Truckee.

MIR. Root Hard to Interview.

Clever reporters who know Secretary
Root fight shy OF interviewing him.
One Of the famous scribes OF a New
York daily said:
Interview Root? That's very easily
said, but almost impossible to do. I
have tried a dozen times, and every
time he interviewed me without my
knowing It,"
On one occasion a Washington poll
tician alluded to some street brawl in
Cuba as a riot. His statement was
promptly questioned by a friend. and
he turned to the secretary and said:
1T may have been only a brawl. but
/ know that wherever there is a smoke
there is fire."
The secretary looked up quietly and
remarked:
Which o suppose to be the case
with your Havana"
When president Of the New England
society, some one asked Mr.. Root:
Why is 1t hat although all good
New Englanders are said to go 20 Par
is, In reality they go to New York;"
The secretary thoughtfully respond
ed:

but 10 New York to live.'-Frank Les

from her wild words, that her excite.
ment was caused chiefly by some mis-
understanding of the facts that had
taken place.
With the resolute quickness tina
characterized her on all occasions OIL
she was by the side of Mrs.
Mowbray in a moment, and with a few
words had Gained the mothers frantic
excitement.
Placing her strong, white hand on
Mrs. Mowbray's shoulder, Mrs. Martin
said. in firm. quiet tones:
Your daughter is well. You have
| misunderstood what has occurred. 1t
Is my poor brother. Philip Grayson. who
has been murdered"
Mrs. Mowbray ceased wailing and
calling on Clarice instantly. She did
not at once take in the full meaning of
Mrs. Martins words. but h under
! stood, vaguely, that her daughter was
safe.
Your brother-Philip Grayson!" she
repeated. in a dazed manner and then.
suddenly comprehending, she burst into
tears. For some moments she wept, In
a weak. hysterical way, IN then she
spoke. calmly enough: I'm sincerely
sorry. Mrs. Martin! What a very. very
shocking thing! And my poor child.
Clarice-let me go to her. How does
she bear up under such an awful ca.
lamity?"
"Well we don't know yet" Mrs. Mar
tin returned, with a degree Of con-
tempt hi she took no trouble TO con-
ceal. but. in view OF your late re-
marks. we cannot reasonably expect
your daughter TO be much overcome
by losing a husband whom she was
forced to marry while her heart be-
longed to her more favored lover"
Mrs. Mowbary flushed holly that her
own words were being flung back at
her. and by one whom she felt. instinct
lively. was an enemy to herself, as we'll
as to Clarice.
She could have bitten her tongue with
vexation that it should have waggeu
so indiscreetly. And Mrs. Martin had
spoken in 80 loud a tone that her words
had been heard by all the servants, as
well as by DR.. Sprague. who had been
standing close beside her.
1t was already evident hat all who
had heard her words, and Mrs. Martins
spiteful repetition Of them. now put
their own construction on them. and
Mrs. MOwbray had a vague feeling
that, In some way, she had n her
daughter serious harm.
That she had actually directed suspi-
cion toward Clarice by supplying a rea-
son why the bride would gladly have
rid herself OF an obnoxious husband,
did rot suggest itself to her silly brain:
but Brian Mowbray vas quicker TO in
terpret the meaning OF the looks and
whispers that were now being ex-
char ged by those about them.
He speedily cached his wife's side,
and. seizing her hand, drew it forcibly
within his arm, where he held it with
no gentle pressure.
BE silent now" he whispered. in a
hoarse. angry whisper. Heaven knows
what harm you nave already done with
that silly tongue OF yours. Keep quiet,
and DO no more"
His angry words and manner passed
unnotiCed, for at hat mOment the po-
lice arrived, and while everyone mad,
way for them, the attention of al! pres
ent was centered upon them.
So extraordinary and unexpected Il
crime. together with the position and
well known wealth of Philip Grayson,
had created a sensation, even or the
police force.

CHATTER ".
A Mystery.

When the momentary stupor Of
amazement was over, the Mortified SER
want was the first to make use of her
voice.
With alf-articulated expressions
of terror the girl ran shrieking from
the room, her alarm increasing instead
of growing less as she fed from the
shocking sight.
Hysterical and terrified. she was soon
In the midst OF her fellow servants,
and in a few minutes 1t was known TO
every one in the house that Philip
Grayson, who had been the master Of
it, lay up stairs, foully murdered.
There was a scene of wild confusion
guests shocked and distressed. women
fainting, servants gossiping.
And all this while the newly-made
mistress of the mansion remained In
her own room, the door of which was
still fast locked and bolted, the last TO
learn Of her sudden and terrible widow
hood.
With an irrepressible shudder, Mrs.
Martin turned from the sight of the
dead face. Hardened and cruel though
she was, both by nature and expert
ence, her heart sickened and her brain
reeled at the realization OF that which
but an hour before she had eagerly de-
sired and even hoped for.
Feeling that every vestige of natural
color had fled from her face, she tore
of the thin tulle veil h always wore
in public, and hastily wiped away her
false complexion.
Tho Selicnte, perfumed handkerchief
that she used was one CT many that
had formed a part OF the splendid
gifts presented TO herself and her
daughters by her ever-gsr crocs broth
er Philip. who now lay, as she had so
often OF late wished to see him, dead
before her.
Was IL that token of his constant
thoughtfulness. or was that she was
not really so callous or so stony-heart-
ed as she had believed herself TO be,
that explained the sudden moisture
which rushed TO her eyes and flowed
down in scalding tears over her paIlid
checks?
with a great effort she summoned
back something Of her customary com
posture. and walked toward the stairs;
but her limbs scarcely served to bear
her: she reeied. aS one stricken with
