And Maurice Raith, stricken to the heart
for the anger that had been in him, and
the injustice of his thoughts, did likewise.
And both of them took this Yvette Foy for
a woman most wonderful.
Yet neither of them knew how wonder
full For IL is not given to many to call
upon a husband and find discarded lover,
in ralment which she herself had provided.
In a single moment Yvette Foy had laid
aside her degree, had changed sides, had
become again the simple daughter of Mart n
Foy and Bon Chrentien. Yet not so much
ds a tinge of regret crossed her counte-
nance. She stood before these men even
as a modest maiden might do, confused by
the hearing of her own praises She cried
archly, like child that finds toy. well,
1 suppose 1t does not become me to ask, for
It has served cur purpose well enough this
time"
Indeed" said Maurice, looking at him
self in establishment in the morning light,
after the excitement of the stalk and chase
had ended Indeed, l know as little as
yourself, whence it came or how I came to
have it upon mel"
Yvette smiled subtly
''Or less!" she murmured, unheard OF
the young man. Then she added in a
louder tone "Methinks the place is even
yet unsafe--let us go home!"
And they walked back together. but La
Cavalerle was not the home at which
Yvette had meant to take her rest that
night nor they the eourtiers who were to
do her homage. Nevertheless, like a child
that will sleep anywhere, she accepted
Catinat and Maurice. since no better might
be, even complimenting the latter on his
uniform and how well he looked In it.
1T becomes you better than anything l
ever saw you wear!" she said. Then the
moment after. And l think she would

growled Catinat, grizzly. ''I, Abdias Maui
rel, will for the first time reveal to them
for what purpose cross is constructed.
AS Yvette had foretold, the townsfolk OF
Saint Veran, Camisards to the core and
hotly in earnest about the matter, received
Flower o. -the-C Corn with open arms. No
one could do enough for her. The maidens
ran for their mothers, their mothers for
cordials, and bade blankets be heated be-
fore fires. There we're feuds as to who
should entertain her, only decided by the
attitude of the entire young male popula-
tion of Saint Veran, which persisted in
hanging over her couch like devotes before
a shrine and vouching for the willingness
of their parents to receive her. So these
wise people finally decided that Flower-o'-
the-Corn should await the coming of her
father (of whose sermons they had heard
tho fame) in the house Of a certain child
less couple, Saint-ruth by name. The hus-
band had been formerly mayor of the little
hill town and he and his wife were exceed
ing willing to have the daughter Of the
famous pastor Of Geneva as their guest.
At La Cavalerie the old routine recon-
menced. The guards were shifted duly.
The trenches were dug farther afield.
Sadly Maurice went about his duty, cast
ing many a glance across the deep gorge
of the Dourbie, now blue and rose with
the exhalations of the evening, again like
a lcor, white and solid as though one
could walk across 1t as the cumul piled
themselves under the round of the moon
at all times a great gulf fixed which the
young man desired to pass over and was
not able.
AS for Yvette Foy, her attitud5 toward
Maurice quite changed. A kind Of
tender reproach, as II deeds ought TO speak
louder for her than any words-no more
small sisterly cares or frequency Of pre-
pared interviews, but rather a quiet, re-
gretful distance, absolute and elaborate as
the gulf Of st. Veran, guarded her about
In the air, as il were, forever lowered the
echoes Of the harsh words spoken on the
eve Of Flower-o -the-Corns flight They
made kind of halo for her.

Perhaps she was somewhat assisted In

DEEP HOLES Nv TIE HUDSON.
One at West Point. where a sO-Fathom
Line Failed TO Touch Bottom.

FIsHKILL LANDING, Aug. 1T Is we'll
known that there are a number Of deep
places in the Hudson, but few persons are
aware that places of n depth ranging from
20 to "a fHthoms ore frequently met with
south of the Highlands, The deepest spot
in the river is Just north OF West Point,
where flfty-fathom line failed to touch
bottom. It is in the narrowest part of
the river. where, during the Revolution,
a chain was placed as an obstruction to
British men-of-war.
Not long ago it was suggested by Gen.
John M. Wilson, Chief of Engineers, that
the enormous quantity Of stone taken from
Dykman's Cut could be dumped into one
of the big holes.
few years ago, when one Of the Hudson
River steamers was wrecked south of
Cornwall and afterward drifted to the north
dock, which is little east of the so-called
bottomless hole, diver was sent down to
examine the boat. He barely escaped
with his life.
The boat rested on what appeared to
be ledge, and began to sink rpidly; The
men on the surface felt the Juggling at
the ropes, and knowing that something was
wrong pulled the diver to the surfr &C. When
he told them of the bottomless pit that nearly
swallowed him the men all laughed, but
the diver got out Of his apparatus and re-
fused TO 60 down ag; in.
From Hiverstraw to Ossining the depth
of the river Is not more than seven fathons,
but of Fort Montgomery, where another
CHI in was stretched during the Revolu-
tion, it is IS fathoms, There is a hole
Off Fort Washington which shows depth
of "a frthoms.
At the base Of Gro Nest Ia stretch of
water 30 fathoms deep. There many
soldiers have been drowned while bathing
just south OF this is Il place whose depth
is not known. It is C, lied the Worlds
End. How it got the name is q mystery
of the dangerous spot.
At Blue Point n few miles above New
burgh, there is another deep spot where
scores Of skaters have lost their lives. 1t
is O. curious fact that over these deep holes
only the thinnest ice forms.
There are many legends connected with
these deep holes in the Hudson, and lots of
/ yarns about them are told by the old boat
men who ferry passengers across from
West Point to Cold Spring.

as compared with what she expects to re-
ceive In dividends when the plants are
ready for operation, and would be no in
ducement to her to undertake the work
she is now doing. She has gone into 1t
with the masculine spirit OF multiplying
capital by the development OF natural re-
sources.
In perhaps no other way has this woman
displayed her keen business sense more
fully than In the securing Of the pEssa ge
Of a BILL at the last session of the Arizona
Legislature, providing for tie exemption
from taxation Of her companies for term
OF years; BY this means there is an an
nuGl saving OF many thousands of dollars,
which is OF great Importance during the
first yeers, when such w.st sums Of money
are being expended, with little or no re-
turn.
The idea was Mrs. TUFTS own, and she
undertook IL with the knowledge that the
Democratic party, which controlled the
Legislature, had a plank In its platform
opposing concessions OF al kinds. She
had her attorneys draw up the bill, which
she took personally to Phoenix, making en-
individual canvass of the members OF both
houses. She argued that her companies
were pioneers In an enterprise thTt would
be Of lasting benefit to the Territory, whose
mineral resources are its chief claim to
wealth, and whose surface has only been
were bringing Into the Territory several mill
ions Of dollars, a large percentage of which
would be distributed there in wages. So
potent were her arguments that when the
bill came up it was presented by the leader
Of one Of the three factions into which the
Legislature il divided, seconded by the
leader Of tho second, and supported by
the leader Of the third, securing all but
three votes.
And for all Mrs. TUFTS business ability,
she Is very much the woman. She kas
not sacrificed an iota OF her femininity.
She Is frankly fond of her pretty gowns, and
looks uron them as part of her c. pitsl, be-
lieving that it is just as legitimate for the
business woman to make the most of her
femininity as for the man to push forward
by the sheer force Of his personality For
this reason she counted the money paid to
her dressmaker well spent when she went
to Arizona with q trlnkful Of the hand
soonest gowns which had ever been seen
at the capital.
Quite as frankly does she d'sc vprove
OF a business life for women. She holds
that they were never intended for the strug-
gle, justlfying herself and her inconsist-
ency by merely saying: What else could
l do when was made woman with
mans brain?"

BURIAL PLACE FOR PRIESTS.
c atacombs Under the New Mortuary Chapel
in Calvary Cemetery.

IN calvary aeNetefy.
One of the Oldest customs Of Christianity
is to be introduced in America by Arch
bishop Farley, who plans to erect for the
Catholic clergy of this diocese mortuary
chapel, and build extensive catacombs in
Calvary Cemetery. A new chapel has
been contemplated for several years, but
the addition of the catacombs is due to
Archbishop Farley He conceived the
idea during his stay abroad last year. when
he saw how fttingly were the clergy OF
the Old World inferred. and contrasted
the poor system used in this country.
II is proposed to erect the new chapel
and build the catacombs on the site Of the
present small frame chapel near the centre
Of the older section OF Calvary. The chapel
will be constructed in the form of Latin
crpss. and will be about 80xl2O feet, with a
tower rising to a height OF about ninety
feet. 49,
The impressive portals will be surmounted
by scuptured representation OF the
Resurrection. On each side OF the sanct-
uary marble stairways will lead up to the
high altar. Between the stairways
wide fight OF marble steps will lead down
10 the catacombs through vaulted pas
sage. At the extreme end OF this Ia the
lower sanctuary. Surmountlng the tower
will he an heroic figure of Christ in the
attitude of bestowing blessing, while below
on the front chapel wall and surrounding
the large sculptured panel Of the Rcsurrec-
ton will be carved. Il am the Resurrection
and the Life.
Work will be begun ON the catacombs
in tho fall, but it ia calculated that 1t will
require several years TO complete the whole
work. The cost will be betrayed by the
500 priests Of this diocese, ,rchbishop
Farley contributing largely 10 The fund.

Many of the fine all-over batiste en-
broideries which have been so modish
and so beautiful this season are marked
down to the cost price, and even below, to
avoid carrying them over, although they
will undoubtedly be worn next summer,
and these sheer embroideries make lovely
blouses. One house is showing such
batiste all-over embroidery in delicate
ecru with slight touches of dull green or
