The chapter describing the betrothal OF
Theodosia and Denis ia entitled "The
Betrothal in the Storm" We find her wet
through at the end of II: "She was limp and
unconscious. He wrapped her in his long,
heavy cape, and calling csrria Ga from the
Cliff House he placed her inside and gave
her warm drinks When he had taken hes
home he stood outside her chamber window
until the light was turned out. He did
not know that she cast away all her clothing
and went shudiering to sleep" We infer
from this that the effect Of the warm drinks
had been dissipated and that the chill OF the
discarded and saturated raiment had re-
asserted itself at the last.
In the duel the Prince was hit. He over
estimated his injury. A he fell he muir

FORFEIT TO TME UNITED STATES,
SECRETARY ROOT ALLEGES.

Tho Government Gives the Merchants
Company Thirty Days to show That Com
troll ffas Not Passed tn Another Bridge
Company. I'm Violation OF Charter.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4,--Secretary Root
issued an order TO the Merchants Bridge
Company Of Sc. Louis to-day requiring it
to show cause within thirty days why the
Government should not take possession
Of the great Merchants Bridge across the
Mississippi River.
When charter was granted for the con-
struction Of this bridge a provision was
inserted to the effect that il ever the Mer-
chants Bridge came under tho control
of the owners Of any other bridge across
the river at 81. Louis the charter should be
forfeited and the bridge become the prop
erty Of the United States.
This provision was inserted because OF
the desire TO prevent the owners OF the
Eads Bridge, known as the Terminal Assoc
citation. from acquiring control Of both
bridges and raising the rates Of traffic.
Recently charges we're made that the
Merchants Bridge and the Eads Bridge
had practically come under the same con-
troll One OF the papers sent to the war
Department, an showing that both bridges
were under one control. was circular
letter sent out to investors by J. P. Morgan
4 Co., asking for subscriptions to new
bond issue Of the Terminal Association.
and saying that the Terminal Association
derived considerable revenue from the
Merchants Bridge.
After consulting with Judge Advocate
General Davis to-day it was determined to
give the Merchants Bridge Company and
the Terminal Association thirty days in
which to show why the Government should
not declare the charter forfeited and inn
mediately take possession Of the bridge.
The authority for doing this without
first going into the courts is derived from
the wording of the charter granted by Con-
gress which says that such action shall be
taken without legal proceedings.

A Good Story OF Illinois.


There is good deal that 10 refreshing in
the story called True Love- by Edith
Wyatt Mcclure. Phillips 4 CO... A realistic
story Of Chicago and Of Centrevillo in Hi
nois. II has amusing qualities. by reason
Of which It's realistic quality will hardly
suffer. This, notwithstanding anything
that may be thought by Mr.. Hamlin Gar
land and the Chevalier Fuller. There are
good characters in it--Norman Hubbard,
with his piatitudinous philosophy; Inez
Marsh, who reyered and thought that she
OWNED intellect; Emily Marsh, who had
freckles, but no affectatiors Dick Cotton,
who ran the Parker House in Centrevile;
F, Thirley Thompson. author Of the novel
called "Chillingsworth, title approved
by Norman. who found it so cold and
powerful Inez thought OF Goethe. Aris-
totle, Emerson, Browning, Nietzsche and
Norman as group that would joyously
understand each other. Il believe" she
said of Norman. picturing him in the COM
pany OF those other philosophers. "that he
would perfectly understand them and
speak readily to them. and know just what
they would say next -be really one OF them. "
But she did not marry Norman-she married
the novelist Thompson. and learned Chill
lingsworth" and ~ tn Springtms' by
heart
We should like to drive over the Centre
vile high road with Dick Cotton and Emily
and have supper at the Parker House after
ward. Such long and white and sunlit
road along the river bluff and through the
vast reaches Of corn. Such a handsome
and comfortable place Of entertainment
to conclude with. They went through
the long halls, passing an occasional travel
ling man, through the new wing, the bridal
chamber. the ballroom, with dazzling
glass chandelier, the billiard room, the
power house and the dining room. They
saw the new electric bells, the new billiard
cues, the new mosaic floor, some artificial
palms and music box of twenty tunes
which tinkled the waltz from The Gypsy
Baron AZ they wandered around the lobby
and the red velvet parlors' There is your
old mellow faded inn, and there Ia this inn,
and for our part we like them both. Be-
sides, there were thirty fine horses in the
stables, and there was blacksmith's shop
in operation, and "the supper consisted
of beefsteak, baked potatoes, scrambled
eggs, coffee and buckwheat cakes with
syrup"
We like the realism and we like the fun
"Wss Chillingsworth really lame?" Inez in
quires OF Thompson. "Oh, yes" explains
that great and fattered novelist, He has
a slight limp. 1t fascnates people, like
everything else about him. Hexshire
Hugh's young wife falls in love with him
for it. Chillingsworth can't help that,
of course He does nothing to attract
her. He simply limps into the room. and
she "a lis in love with him"
An unusually satisfactory and good
story, of which we fear we have given a
rather poor notion. But we have tried
to do little better thai the title, which
we do not consider to he very strong or
happy.

one swing OF his trunk, knocked Brown
into corner in an unconscious heap. Dur
ing the excitement attending the rampage
half VI the trainers, the managers of the
show and Bostock were endeavoring to
capture the beast and chain him up.
The trouble began at 4 o'clock. after the
elephant, whose legs are crippled with
rheumatism, had recovered from the effects
Of cocaine, administered the night before.
Tommy tugged until he finally tore up the
planking to which he was chained. Then
he upset the monkey cage. Some one In
the excitement pulled the fire alarm. and
the approach of two engines added to the
uproar
Brown was knocked out before he could
do anything, and for a half hour there was
plenty OF trouble. Lions roared and the
other animals, aroused by the racket made
by the elephant, protested vigorously,
Bostock and several others, armed with
pitchforks, finally drove the elephant on
trapdoor. which dropped him into pit
seven feet deep. There he was chained.
