lose it he did, and nothing the wait
er could bring sufficed to tempt him.
He forced himself to eat a little in
sheer desperation, and afterward
went to the great rotunda to smoke
a cigar. To his great disgust, the
tobacco brought on a return of the
vertigo which had assailed him on
the levee; whereupon he paid his
score and took cab for the train,
meaning to go to bed and try the
effect Of forgetfulness.
The experiment was a success, tenn
porarily, at least, and he was asleep
before the Pullman porter came to
adjust the screen in the window at
his feet.
The train was made up ready to
leave when a hawk-faced man saun-
tered up to the steps of the Pullman
and 'pecked. at the porter.
''Much of load tonight, George? '
mo. sab; mighty light. Nobody
yet but de gen1'man from the Marl-
borough"
"a gentleman from the Marlbor-
ough? When did he come DOWN."
The porter knew the hawk faced
one only by intuition; but Griswold's
tip was warming in his pocket, and
he lied at random and on general
principles. -
Been heah all de evenin'; come
down right soon after supper and
went to bald like he was tarr'd."

But the wheels began to move, and
the hawk-faced one had turned away.
Whereupon the porterscntslaisssim

chose to make would do. But he got
out the plan and busted it, and in the
putting together of heads over it
many miles of the gap of unacquaint-
ance were swiftly and safely over
passed.
When the sittings were finally
chosen she found her purse.

time from your business to wait on

But at the word she was in fut-

IF it is too much, put the difference

the rector's salary, as little .dona-
ton from poppa. you know"
Thus the small matter of business
was concluded, and Miss Grierson
rose to go.

THE MlLKWOMAN.

She was tall and strong, and she walked
along
With firm. substantial tread,
Like one who knows that wherever she
goes
Sheis earning her daily bread
Yet she is aware that her face is fair:
But she also understands
That the best Of her charms are her stout
red arms
And her strong. Woodworking hands.

AS Is fond of an easy life;
but II get man, shall do what can
For TO make him a working wife"
Then she went on her beat through the
busting street
With a step like martial mans:
step that suits her iron-shod boots
And the weight of her clanking cans.
There were many who eyed her stately
stride
AS she moved through the yielding crowd,
With her hands on her hips and a smile on
her lips,
And look both calm and proud.
They could not see what was clear to me
That the Hottest lady there
Might envy the part in Dame Natures heart
Which Is owned by Kitty Clare.

one pair of eyes looked, and turned
to look again.
Miss Margery drove~daily in good

outing had an objective other than
the spectacular. Wherefore, when the
housekeeping English horse had meas

was sent on across the railway track

The interruption was of Raymer's

A KnaVe Of
Conscience
By FRANCIS LYNDE.
(Copyrig 1T 1900. by Francis Lynds.)
CHAPTER XIII.

Putting this and that together, it
was the Griswold of his earlier New
York days-the days of the slender
patrimony - who presented himself
at the counter of the Hotel Marlbor-
ough. The clerk was graciously af-
fable.
Glad to have you with us, Mr..
Griswold. Will you have a room?"
Griswold thought not; not in any
case if he could get late train to
his destination. This brought on a
question and answer. There was a
train. and the clerk did know some
thing of Wahaska; knew much, in
fact, since he had lived there.
Griswold pumped the man dry, and
Mt the end of the pumping process
knew as much about the Minnesota
town as he could have CLEANED from
a six months residence therein. Aft
erward, he went to supper in the
cafe, meaning to go thence to the
waiting Pullman at the Terminal
He was scarcely out of sight be-
fore the diminutive Irishman who
had driven him came to the counter
and made cautious inquiries of the
clerk, touching the name, address
and intentions of his late fare; all
this on the pretext that the fare had
overpald him.
The clerk knew his man and in
dulged him, even going so far as to
write Griswold's name and intended
address on card for him. Where
upon, instead of waiting for Girls
wold's emergence from the cafe, as
he promised to, the cabman disap-
peared.
Griswold had n quarter of an hour
of purely philistine contentment
while he was waiting for his supper.
At last the difficulties were all in the
past. He would resume his name
and his plans; and these last took
on all the roseate hues of their
birthday.
He would go to Wahaska, settle
down to his work, study the people,
be helpful and generous and brother
loving, using the money he had won
for the betterment of his kind. And
In time he would meet Miss Farnham
on her own ground, and she would
see the demonstration of his theory
see and be convinced. But lust
here he remembered that he could
never convince her, because she could
never know; and from this he passed
to many curious questions touching
his. own feelings for this young WON
an who had been thrown in his way.
He had been calling her a faultless
authors model; was she only that
to him? Assuredly she was much
more. and when he had gotten that
far. it was only step to the admis-
sion that he was frankly in love with
her. The admission opened up a
prospect for which there was no word
save grievous. For since he could
never stoop to win her under false
pretenses, she might never be won
He knew well enough that all the
good deeds he could ever do with
the stolen money would not atone;
that in the moment OF fruition heI
conscience would condemn him and
cast him out.
Perhaps it was this thought, as
much as the threat of coming i'll
vess, that made him lose his appetite
a. soon as his supper appeared. Blu,

effective January 20. On the same
date the resignation of Mr.. Egan from
the Denver G. Rio Grande system,
where he has been acting as general
superintendent, takes effect.
Mr.. Egan came to the Rio Grande
system early last year to succeed w.
He was brought from the east by Mr..
Herbert and is regarded as a good
railroad man. Previous to being with
the Rio Grande he was superintendent
of the western division of the Grand
Trunk system.
The vacancy in the general superin-
tendency of the Rio Grande may fall
to d. Hardy, at present superintend-
ent of the Pueblo division. Railroad
men will watch the appointment OF
Mr.. Egan's successor, as it may out
line the policy of the new manager as
favoring the promotion of old EN-.
ployes as occasion offers instead of
filling the s~ub-executive positions with
imported men.
At Manager Edson's Office the an.
nouncement was made that Mr.. Egan's

and would not be for several days.

GRANTED A TOLL TRAIL,
r. n. Cameron Secures the Exclusive
Right to Use Bright Angel Trail
to the Grand CANYON.

X. II. Cameron received notice
through Forest Supervisor Breh that
his application for the exclusive use
of the Bright Angel trail, as a toll
road, had been granted him by the
secretary of the interior, says the
Flagstaff Sun.
This trail is at the rim of the Grand
Canyon at the end of the railroad,
where the Bright Angel hotel is locat-
ed.
This concession vas granted Mr..
Cameron because of his having located
the trail previous to setting aside of
the Grand Canyon forest reserve,
and complied with the territorial laws
governing the use of public lands.
The Santa Fe railroad company made
a considerable of a fight to secure this
privilege, but during his presence in
Washington, Mr.. Cameron fully con-
WINGED the department of his legal
claim 10 the trail. The concession is
a valuable one, and it is expected that
Mr.. Cameron will soon erect build
ings, a toll gate at the head of the
trail, have a stable of saddle horses
to accommodate tourist traffic into the
canyon, and collect toll from outside
persons who wish to use it. Mr.. Cam
eron is to be congratulated on his
good fortune in getting his claims
passed upon favorably, and he will
undoubtedly o make himself popu-
lar with the travelling public.
