her. Then. with an activity astonish-
ing In one OF her years, she sprang upon
Henson and tore. the ring from his

Rupert himself. g an actually.
"Naseby was over, and, so the legend
goes, Prince Rupert found himself des-
perately situated and in dire peril Of

one Colonel Carfax, a near neighbor Of
Rupert Littimer; indeed, the Carflx
estates stin run parallel with the prop

Now, carfax v as hated by all those
who were attached to the fortunes OF
the king. Seeing that he was of aristo-

sides with Roupdheads. History has

But I don't see how the ring has
anything to do with"
With the family dishonor. No, I am
coming to that. We arrive at the time,
seven years ago, when my aunt and
Lord Littimer and Frank were all liv-
irg happily at Littimer Castle. I told
you just now that the Carfax estates
sdjoin the Littimer property. The fam
lily Is still extant and powerful, but the
feuc between the two houses has neva-
ceased. OF course. people don't carry
on a vend eta these peaceful DAYS, but
the families have not visited for centu-
ries.
There ives a daughter. Claire, whom
Frank Littimer got to know by some
means or other. But for the silly fam
lily feud, nobody would have known or
cared, and there would have been an
end TO the matter. because Frank had
always loved my sister, Chris. and we
all knew that he would marry her some
of these days.
Lord Littimer was furiously angry
when he heard that Frank and Claire
had got on speaking terms. He imperi-
ously forbade any further intercourse
and General Carfax did the same. The
consequences was that these two foolish
young people elected to fancy them
selves greatly ~aggrieved. and so a kind
OF RomSo and Juliet, Montague and
applet business sprang up. There were
secret meetings-meetings entirely in

which became romantic and passionate

 Case.

A lively contest Is on at Nome regarding Che townslte, q portion Of which Is claimed as a mining ground. The city council has filed a complaint In intervention, according to ajvlces brought by L. L. Bales, late arrival from Nome.
 Briefly stated, the facts as set forth in the complaint of Intervention, are; ln August last S. G. simpson applied for patent for the Simpson placer claim, em- braclng Iz acres within the city of Nome, and Including the premises occupied by Simpson & Co.,, on Front street. The ap- plcatIon was made In due course, and the Nome Shook Company adysrsed the pIo- ceedlngs, claiming that the company were the original loeators, and as such were en- titled to the townslte. Erik O. Lind bloom, who claims town lots within the Simpson placer clalm, also lnteryened by filing a motion of Intervention in the dls- trlet court
 The council, through It's city attorney, claims Simpson seeks to secure a patent to the ground ln violation of the rules and regulations of the interior department.
