He paused. and Mrs. Clark looked
attentively at him, and then at Bar
bara, sitting with head bowed and
cheeks flushed. and a CLEAN of sud-
den perception of the truth began
TO shine out of the mothers face as
she turned again toward the min
lister. Barbara had never confided di-
rectly in her mother. but Mrs. Clark
had been blessed with n remarkably
beautiful and true love experience
in her own girlhood. and with all her
faults and misunderstanding of Bar
bara during the trial of her expert
ment with Mrs. Ward she had in va
rious ways come 10 know that Rar-
bara had grown TO have much inter
est in the brilliant young preacher.
Barbara had probably made Sc
rious mistake in not giving her moth
er frank confession. But Mrs.
Clark had never really supposed until
now that the minister might have a
feeling for Barbara. She began to
feel certain of il as she rapidly noted
Mr.. Morton's evident agitation and
the look that he gave Barbara az he
stopped suddenly.

enjoying ii very much.
She was reading the last chapter,
and even as she read she remembered
that this was the night when the
Christian Endeavor society at the
Marble Square church had the entire
service. There was no preaching aft
or the Endeavor meeting. which
closed about eight o'clock
II was half-past eight LAS Barbara
finished the beautiful narrative. and
her mother had thanked her and
made comments on the clearness Of
the style and its spiritual helpful
neSs, when the bell rang.
They had so few visitors, espe-
cially on Sunday, that they were
startled by the sound. But Barbara
rose at once and went TO the door.
When she opened it, she uttered
an exclamation Of establishment. For
Mr.. Morton was standing there. Ills
face was pale, and even stern, Bar
bara imagined, as he stood there.
May | come in?" he said quietly,
as Barbara stood still. 81 want very
much to see you and your mother"
Barbara murmured word of apol-
ogy, and then invited him 10 enter.
Mrs Clark rose TO greet him. and
the minister took the seat she prof
fered him.

spent freely on both sides. The Dem
ocrats were confident, but Pingree won
by about 5000 majority, the largest
vote ever given candidate for mayor
up to that time. Pingree's third term
was much taken up with fighting over
street railway franchises. 1t was
during this term that the potato patch
plan evolved. The plan proved sue
cessful and was followed In many 9th
er large cities. and earned for the
mayor the name OF Potato" Pingree.
Fourth Term.
In 1895 Samuel Goldwater was pit
ted against Pingree by the Democrats.
but Goldwater's candidacy was re-
garded largely as joke, and Pingree
had over 10000 majority.
Governor of Michigan.
The career of Mr.. Plngree as gov
ernor has perhaps no equal In the his
tory of any state. AS governor, Mr..
Plngree became conspicuous nationally
by reason of the excellent equipment
of the state troops he raised for the
Spanish-American war, and the rapid
ity with which he sent troops to the
front. In this he was most energetic.
When Gen. Russell A. Alger was be-
rated by the yellow journals Of the
east as secretary of war, Gov. Plngree
was the first to uphold him and criti-
else his detractOrs.
In the fall of 1898 Mr.. Pingree was
reelected governor by a plurality OF
10000. In 90 he secured the passage
OF street railway municipal owner
ship bill by the legislature, and later
endeavored to have the city buy the
street railways for 100000, and
though business sentiment was almost
unanimously against the plan, he car
rled 1t once through the common coun-
ell, and was only stopped intimately
by refusal on the part of Owner Will
son to extend the option on the prop
erty.
AS governor Mr.. Pingree secured the
passage of the law creating the state
tax commission, which has equalized
taxation throughout the state to a
great degree. He also after his adj
valorem taxation law was declared
unconstitutional secured an amend
ment to the constitution of the state
whereby the present al valorem bill
was made valid. He likewise secured
the repeal of all special railroad char
tiers in the state.
Inc Military DOdTu Scduudl is the
only spot of his political career that
has even a dark look and that comes
from those whom he stood by through
it all. those whom he considered his
friends and less culpable than others.
The banquet given by him in the
state capitol when carloads of viands
and wine. and decorations were used,
marked the end of his political career.
That he wrought well for the inter
ests of the people of his home city and
the state in many ways evidences on
every hand attest. That he made some
mistakes there can be no denial. That
he was an honest, fearless and prOduc-
tive politician all admit. He was well
fitted for the strenuous political life he
led by the inheritance of good blood
and a strong physique, by the very
climate of the state in which he was
born, and by his own rugged person
atty. His worth as Il man and a citi-
zen will not be fully developed till the
results Of his work bear fruit.
