The afternoon was spent in very mucl
the same way rs the evening before
Neither sister remained an instant viii
me after the other entered my company
and though the alterations We're les
frequent than they had been at tha

marked and less naturally accounted
that l made the suggestion which hac

noon.

pauses of our more than titful converse

of its great empty rooms? l know they
are mostly closed and possibly unfur-

in colonial architecture this would
rather add to their interest than detract
from it. -
Impossible, she was going to say,
but caught herself back in time and
changed the imperative word to one
more conciliatory if equally unvielding
Il am sorry, Miss Butterworth, to
deny you this qualification, but the con-
dition of the rooms and the unhappy ex-
citement into which we have been
thrown bv the unfortunate visit paid to
Lucetta by a gentleman she is only toe
much attached to- hope you will moi
expect me to talk on the subject-make
it quite impossible for me to consider
any such undertaking today. Tomorrow
l may find it easier; but, if not, be as.
sured you shall see every nook and cor.
ner in it if you so desire before you leave
the house,
"Thank you," I retorted dryly. 81

tastes an ancient room in time honored

"Which?''
She spoke more quickly than usual
and for her quite sharply.

Of Lucetta's namesake-she who rod,

had won her lovers heart away from

81 am glad she was so considerate
But why-if you will pardon me-did
she happen to light upon that? We have
not heard those incidents spoken of for
years.

her from suspecting any ute
rior motive on my part in thus intro
ducing a subject which could not be al
grateful to her. !

had been regained, but not so entirely
but that her voice slightly trembled.
THAT was before you came. hope it

you fortunate enough to have been
awake at that moment and to have seen
this spectral appearance
She shuddered was not mistaken
in believing | saw this sign of emotion,
for | was looking at her very closely,
and the movement was unmistakable.
Il have never seen anything ghostly

If | had been i'll natured or if l had
thought it wise to press her too closely,
l might have said:
"Then why do You look so pale? Why
tremble so visibly, you whom ! have

But my natural kindness, together
with an instinct of caution, restrained
me, and | only remarked:
"There you are sensible, Miss Knollys
-doubly so as denizen of this house,
which Mrs Carter was obliging enough
many as haunted"
The strengthening Of Miss Knollys'
lips augured no good to Mrs. Carter.
"Now l only wish it was, laughed
dryly II should really like to meet

which am forbidden to enter.
"You are not forbidden, she uttered
hastily. "You may explore it now if
you will excuse me from accompanying
you, but you will meet no ghosts. The
hour is not propitious.
Taken aback by her sudden amenity,
l hesitated for moment. Would it be
worth while for me to search a room

and yet any knowledge which could be
obtained in regard to this house might
be of use to me or to Mr.. Gryce. | de-
cided to embrace her offer. but first l
must test her with one other question.

CONFER ON CONSUMPTION.
AMERICAN CONGRESS OF TUBERCU-
LOSIS IN JOINT SESSION WITH MED
ICO-LEGAL SOCIETY.

The third annual meeting of the American Con-
press of tuberculosis, in joint session with the
Aiedico-Iesal Society. opened yesterday at the
Hotel Majestic. 1t is to be continued to-day and
Tomorrow and there to be meetings of the
delegates representing medical legal and scientific
bodies in various States. Canada, Mexico and the
Central and South American republics The con
cress has the Endorsement of the Department of
State ana invita- tons to foreign governments are
issued through United States ambassadors ana
ministers. The federal government is represented
in the congress by Captain Henry d. Snyder and
Surgeon W. c. Braisted Of the navy. and surgeons
T NJ Darlington and Preston III. Bailhache, of the
Marine Hospital Service.
There was a large attendance Of delegates at
1890 a m. when Dr. A. n. Bell, of Brooklyn. made
an address Of welcome. DR. Henry b EoIton'
president of the congress- read his annual ADDRESS,
urgns legislation for the suppression of cond1tlohs
tending spread the disease of tuberculosis ds-
ease which I is estimated. alicts one-seventh OF
the worlds population. President Hoton quoted
Professor Behring. who held that tuberculosis IN
man and cattle propagated by Identical pa
ciIIi and that the seeming differences between
human and bovine baCilH resulted from the ca
pacity of the bacill to accommodate themselves 10
the organ ism in which they lived. 1t had been as
serted that incubation with bovine bacillus would
produce the disease in other animal species: this
