CHAPTER vi.
BESIDE BEAUTIFUL WATERS.

When CASTOR tried to sleep, he
found it impossible. His brain
was on fire, every nerve culver
ing with some new mysterious
power and his imagination soar
ing on tire1ess wings. He rolled
and tossed an hour, then got up,
and sat by his open window look
ing out over the city sleeping in
the still white moonlight. He
looked into the mirror and grin.

What is the matter with mel"
he exclaimed. Il believe I'm
going crazy"
He sat down and tried to work
the thing out by the formulas of
cold reason. Its perfectly abb
surd to say I'm in love. NV wild
romancing about a passion that
will grasp all life in it's torrent
sweep is only a boys day dream
The world is too prosy for that
now"
Yet in spite Of this argument
the room seemed as BRIGHT as
day, and the moon was only a
pale sister light to the radiance
from the face of the girl he had
seen that day. Her face seemed
to him smiling close into his now.
The light of her eyes was tender
and smoothing like the far away
memory of his mothers voice.
It's passing fancy" he said
at last, after he had sat an hour
dreaming and dreaming of scenes
he dared not frame in words even
alone. He stood by the window
again.
What a beautiful old world
this is after ALT" he thought as
he gazed out on the tops of the
oaks whose young leaves were
softly signing at the touch of the
night winds. Turning his eye
downward to the street he saw
the men loading the morning
paper into the wagons for the
early mail.
L wonder what sort of report
of my speech they put in?" he
exclaimed. Unable to sleep he
hastily dressed, went down and
bought paper.
On the front page was a flatter-
ing portrait, two columns in
width, with report of his speech
filling the entire page, and an ed
itorial review of a column and a
half. He was hailed as the com
ing man of the state in this edi.

his own greatness quoted his
nerves and he fell asleep. He

as wide awake as though he had
slept soundly all night.
I must be threatened with

been worrying about since I was
a boy!" he laughed as he slowly
dressed.

But am going on that train,
that's the question:"
The fact was, now he came to
think Of it, there was no need Of
hurrying home. lie would stay
a while and look this mystery in
the face until he was dis
illusioned. Besides he wanted
to find out what McLcod's visit
meant. He had a vague feeling
of uneasiness when he recalled
the way Mcleod had assumed
about the generals house. He
had told Sallie he must hurry
home on the mornings train for
no earthly reason than that he
had intended to do so when he
came.
So after breakfast he wrote
her a little note.
My Dear Miss Worth:
My train left me. Will you
have compassion on a stranger
in strange city and let me call
to see you again today?
CHARLES CASTOR"
He waited impatient1y until he
heard his train leave, and then
told the boy to make tracks for
the generals house.
A peal of laughter rang through
the hall when Sallie's dancing
eyes read that note.
oh! the storyte11er'' she
cried.
And this was the answer she
sent back.

I'll take you to drive all by N.Y.

The negro came up grinnine
in hopes of another quarter.
Did you tell that young lady
anything about when I wrote
that note?"

He walked with bounding steps
his being ting1ing to his fingc
tips with the JOY of living. The
avenue leading the full length of
the city toward the generals
house was two miles long before
it reached the woods at the gate.
1t SCENE d only a step this morn
ing.
AS he passed through the cool
shades of the woods a squirrel
was playing hide and seek with
his mate on the old crooked
fence beside the road. His lit
tie nimble mistress flew up a
great tree to it's top most Dough
and chartered and laughed at her
lover as he scrambled swiftly af-
ter her. She waited until he
was just reaching out his arm
to grasp her, and then with an
other scream of laughter 1eaped
straight out into the air to anoth-
err tree top, and then another and
another until lost in the heart of
the forest.
I wonder if that's going to be
my fate!" he unused as he turned
into the gateway.
Again the majestic beauty of
that cleaning mass of ivory on
the hill with it's green back
ground swept his soul with it's
power. It seemed a different
shade of color now that he saw
it with the sun at another angelo.
It's surface seemed to have the
soft sheen of creamy velvet.
He paused and sighed. why
should I be poor? If I only had
house like that I'd turn that big
banquet hall on the left wing in
to library, and I'd ask no
higher heaven!"
And b fell to wondering, if it
would really be worth the h aving
without the face and voice of the
girl who was there within wait
ing for him. No, he was sure of
it this morning for the first time
in his life. The certainty of
this conviction brought to his
heart a feeling of loneliness and
despair. When he thought of
his object poverty and the long
years of struggle before him, and
of that beautiful accomplished
young woman rich, petted, the
belle of the city, the gulf that
separated their lives seemed i'm;
passablc.

to himself as he looked u p at the

and fluted capitals.

revelation of her power over

DESERTS HIS WIFE AND
breaches THE GOSPEL
Rev. HyIton Returns After 27 Years
and Persuades His Son to Follow Him.

ROANOKE, Va, Sept. ia most
romantic affair became known here
today when Samuel Hylton, acconpa-
MED by his father. M. w. Hylton, aged
sixty-two. his wife and three small
children, left for Arkansas.
About twenty-seven years ago the
elder Hylton married Miss Sallie Mill
er, then eighteen years old. Three
weeks after their marriage Hylton left
home. Mrs Hylton would never assign
any reason for the mysterious disap-
pearance of her husband. From the
union a son was born, and he married
and has three children.
The father in the meantime was ac-
cCmulating snug fortune on an Ar
kansas ranch. and after seven years he
obtained divorce from his deserted
wife. He was married to a second
woman and nine children were born ia
them. His former wife never married
again. although many sprightSy farm
ers had offered her q share Of their
homes.
Some years ago the elder Hylton be-
came one of the most successful Bap-
fist preachers in Arkansas. Two
months ago he wrote to the postmas-
ter of Bent Mountain for information
regarding Mrs. Hylton No. 1, and re-
ceived a letter stating that she was
sun alive and the mother of a hand
some son twenty-seven years old, who
was leading young citizen of the
community and the father of three lit
tie girls. He then came to Virginia to
visit his son, and together they went
toVisit the wife and mother, where the
elder Hylton was received only as a
friend. The great inducements offered
the son to locate in the West caused
MIN to go with his father, and today
ne and his family bade the mother a
fond adieu.

Greater NorthrOp Field Will Be
Dedicated Today.

The members of the University of Min

formal debut of the season on Northrop
held this afternoon. when the new field
is to be dedicated with appropriate cere-
monies, followed by the first practice
game between the Gophers and the teams
Central high schools
The exercises are to commence at 2:45
with speeches by Gov Van SAINT, President
Haynes and Mayor Smith. Of st. Paul.
Fred b. Snyder, president of the Alumni
associati ton. will preside.
In view of the fact that the occasion
will mark the opening of Minnesotas
splendid athletic field. the finest in the
West, 1t is expected that the attendance
WI, exceed by far that at last years in
to get the stands in readiness for the
turnout.
The huge grandstand on the south side
of the field Is completed and only requires
few finishing touches. The turf grldiron
has been rolled until 1t has become firm
enough to stand the hardest kind of wear
and tear, and. while the field will be
bit slow, the players will be enabled to
perform at their best.
The field was marked off yesterday aft
ernoon and for the first time the rooters
got an idea Of what it would look like
after having the lime applied. The crowd
watching the practice fairly marveled at
the beauty of the new battle ground.
while todayS game is regarded as only
warming up for the Gophers every
man who will be given an opportunity to
participate in the two halves will be seen
at his best. as the showing made in this
contest will in a great measure decide the
future of the different players. The try
out will take In practically all the
members Of the first and second teams,
and the rooters WI be given a chance to
get line on the most prominent material
on hand.
Coach Williams has been at work with
his men. for nearly a month and every
day has brought improvement in the play
ing of his pupils. Many of the men were
green, and those who have followed the
practice see in the 1903 Gophers a formid-
able aggregation.
The Minneapolis Central and st. Paul
Central teams, who are to compose the
opposition today, have been practicing for
some time, and no doubt will give the
Gophers a good run. Coach Merrill of the
Minneapolis Central. has a large guam
tity of promising material, and is due to
line up fast bunch against the big fell
lows. ST. Paul Central will come up de-
termined to give DR.. Williams men hard
tussle. Minneapolis Central will probably
line up for the first half while the st.
Paul boys will draw the final period.
The varsity practice last night was
again light, but that was the result of a
misunderstanding on the part of the
scrubs, the latter going in before the
varsity had finished signal practice. AS
1t was a little punting and light work, such
as picking up the ball, was done. All the
work was of good quality, and with the
exception of Thorpe all are in fine condi
ton for the game today.

MILWAUKEE,. Wis, Sept IS. -
There were less than 800 baseball fans
at Athletic park this afternoon to
watch the Brewers play rings around
the pennantwinning Saints. Among
the number were thirty players of the
Denver and Milwaukee teams, of the
Western league, owing to the sudden
demise of that organization.
The Brewers won by score of II to
l, due to the excellent pitching of Ell
mer Meredith, who allowed the Saints
just three scattered hits.
The Saints were mixed as badly as a
Chinese puzzle. The infield was chang
ed around so that even Manager Kelley
would not recognize it. jackson PLAYED
second base, Wheeler played first, Geier
covered third, and Schaefer was in his
correct position at short
Catcher Sullivan played first base for
time until he tired of it and changed
with Jackson. Errors were numerous
on the part of the Saints and they
made mistakes which are not recorded
in the score. They did not give the
young pitcher, Freeman, any support
to speak of, and that youth, no doubt
wished he had one of the Northern
league teams back of him.
Freeman was effective at times, but
he was wild and gave six bases on
balls. hit two men and threw into the

There was a great deal of kicking at
Umpire Mullane, who made several
very close and questionable decisions.
Capt. Schaefer was on his dignity and
kicked every chance he had
The fielding of Dunleavy was a fea-
ture of the game. He made a couple of
swell catches. Shannon played the
best ball for the Saints.
The Brewers scored twice in the
third on two hits and errors. In the
fifth four runs came in on one hit, two
gifts and errors. Three were made in
the sixth on two hits, two bases on
balls and errors. Three hits and a gift
scored three in the eighth. The Saints
scored their only run in the seventh
on Unglaub's throw into the bleachers
and Flournoy's hit. The score:
