Marion Barton was the only child Of
the multi millionaire, John Barton.
Those who knew the young. lady best
were wont to aver that she was a
feminine counterpart of old John. She
had undoubtedly inherited her fathers
obstinacy and pugnacity; and if she
had been less like him in personal ap-
pearance she certainly would have
been prettier girl. Her jaws were
square, almost to masculinity, and the
heavy brows and firm mouth indicated
an infexible will. The eyes redeemed
the face-clear, hazel eyes that looked
out on all the world, unafraid.
She was decidedly democratic in her
tendencies, and from earliest childhood
had chosen her companions according
to her liking, regardless of class, caste,
or position. There was burden lifted
from old Johns heart, when, at the age
Of twenty-four she bethrotIed herself
to Peter Van Rentsell, whose fortune
exceeded her fathers and who was
busily engaged in promoting it's in
crease.
"Thank God!'' piously breathed her
father, when she announced her en-
gagement; II have been in terror lest
it might be the coachman or my Sec
rotary. It would have been just like
her.
However, Peter Van Rentsell had
all the virtues that are popularity cata-
logued as belonging to the poor, but
honest" He was strong, sensible,
| hard working young man, who studied,
and travelled, and made money with
equal ardor.
i If John Barton could have chosen for
| his daughter, young Van Rentsell
| would have been the man Of his choice.
He was the heaviest stakeholder of thu
| D. M. & S. A.. he owned two-thirds of
the r. S. &, T. P. u, he had control

| freight vessels, and envious outsiders
said that the draperies and hangings
o fhis apartments were made of cou-
pon-gonds and government "sixes.'
| This may have been slightly exagerat-
! ed, but in any even his wealth was suf-
| f1cient to satisfy, nay, to delight old
John Barton, and that is saying q GOOD
deal. The Barton millions were chief
| ly in railroad and coal mines.
Extensive preparations for the we'd
ding were going on in the Barton man
sion, while miles away, a great strike
| was on in the Barton mines. Johr
Barton was exceedingly annoyed b!
many things in connection with this
strike. Public sentiment, as shown BY
| the press, was strongly against him
and Marion persisted in asking foolish
questions.
"Give your attention to your trous'
eau" he said, sharply, 'and don't both
er yourself about newspapers or strik
ing miners. They don't interest yo'
in the least"
But John Barton had reckoned with
