chosen. Everyone sympathized with the
statesman. who was mourning his only
son. and whose altered looks and bowed
frame eviuced the depth of his sorrow.
Darcy proposed to carry Lestelie TO
France and Italy, as soon as their nup-
tials had been celebrated, and enjoy with
her heightened sojourn on tfe Conti
nent; but this plan, in which the Cen
eral had cordially agreed, was desuneo
to be postponed. They were spending
their honeymoon III charming lite re-
treat on the banks of the Thames, ana
arranging their route from Paris, when
was to be their first resting place, when
a telegram recalled them to town. Gen.
Glenaughton had been stricken Win
palsy.
Gen. Glenaughton's dying bed would
have been lonely one, but for Lestelle
and Darcy. They watched beside lt
with untiring patience; and though
weeks and even months elapsed, they ala
not weary over their self-imposed task.
The General partially regained the pow
er Of speech; and when he sank peace
fully into the sleep from which there IS
no waking, it comforted Lestelle to re-
member how often his lips had called her
his child, his dear, thoughtful, loving
daughter; and how his last look had been
given to her, as she knelt by his pillow.
The widow never knew precisely the
reason that her husband had formed
such strong attachment to Darcy
young wife-the actress whose presence
beneath her roof she very much resent
ed; but hint from Ida, who was more
worldly wise, as we'll as more cognizant
Of the truth than her mother, warned her
to conceal her dislike. Lestelle, there
fore, after her husbands accession to
the Gienaughton estates, was treated
with great but hollow politeness by his
relatives; nor was it till the misery Of an
unhappy marriage, and the sutferlngs
consequent upon the accident, had de-
spoiled Ida of her beauty, and rendered
her a confirmed invalid, that she sought
Lestelle's affection, and acknowledged
her virtues.
It was some time before Miss Hill
conquered her nervous dread of Wyett
Paulton, and emerged from her conceal
ment; but she thankfully accepted Oar
cy's proposal that she should assist Les
telle in the management of her house
hold; and it was to her goodness of heart
that Paulton owed the assistance render
ed to him when his spoculations failed,
and he was living in obscurity at Bou-
logne, a splenetic, prematurely aged
man, who in the whole course Of his life,
had not succeeded in making a friend.
Before Gen. Glenaughton's death Les
telle had, with his concurrence, erected
q simple monument to the memory Of
her mother.
And very few of those who linger in
the secluded little graveyard to note the
beauty of the marble cross, and the flow
ers that cluster around it, are aware that
a yearly pilgrimage to this spot is made
by the happy and beautiful wife Of
Darcy Lesmere.

uhan Treas Go to Sleep.

Trees and plants have their regular
fines for going to sleep. They need to
rest from the work Of growing anu 70
repair and oil the machinery OF h1e.
Some plants do all their sleeping IN
the winter while the ground is frozen
and the limbs are bare Of leaves. In
tropical countries where the snow new
er falls and it is always growing
weather the trees repose during the
rainy season or during the periods OF
drought. They always choose the most
unfavorable working time for doing
their sleep, just as man chooses the
night, when he cannot see to work.

faltered, he obeyed Lestelle's injunction.
The first paper was that certificate of
marriage Wyett Paulton had read to the
young girl, craftily leaving out one word,
which completely altered its Specification.
The Generals name was John Arden
Lesnere; his dead brothers, Arden Ever
ard. BY emitting the John, this docu-
ment had been made to bear a very diff
ferent meaning to it's nearer.
The other papers were the affidavits of
the witnesses to the ceremony, and let
ter from an agent of Paulton's, who had
been employed to collect their testimony.
This epistle clearly proved that, although
both the brothers had quilted Halesby
together, it was the General who re-
turned, and had carried his unfortunate
bride to London.
There was a pause when Darcy finish
ed his task. With his deep sense of the
disgrace Gen. Glenaughton' deed entail
ed upon every one connected with him,
there mingled devout thankfulnes that
no stain rested on his fathers memory.
lie could comprehend now how thor
oughly truth and fiction had been blended
in all the General had told him. He
gazed at his uncle sorrowfully, as he sat
with his features still concealed. Les
telle moved a little nearer to the table
at which the General was sitting.
''Father!'-it was the first time that
name had ever crossed her lip-"when
my mother took her children and went
back to her own people, a forsaken wife,
those who befriended her urged her to
reveal the name Of the husband and par
ent who had forgotten the claim these
helpless ones laid upon him"
He did not raise his head, but his
attitude proved that he was listening in
tently.
''She would not be prevailed upon, and
she died plying and praying for the
lover of her youth. |, too, will do as my
mother did, and heap no additional
shame on your head, by asserting my
right to be known as your daughter"
Before either the General or Darcy
thoroughly compreehnded what she pro-
posed doing, she had thrust the packet
into the middle of the fire; another mo-
ment, and it was reduced to ashes.
She stood watching the light embers
futter and fall, then moved quietly to-
wards the door; but Darcy sprang after
her; he would not let her go alone, and
he was drawing her arm through his,
his eyes eloquent of the love and admira-
ton he felt, when hollow voice, full
of agonized entreaty, was heard recall
ing her.

How Radium May Be Found.

The United States government is
taking steps looking toward developing
the radium- producing resources of the
country The chief Of the geological
survey announces that he would like
specimens Of radioactive minerals,
and for the guidance Of those persons
who believe that they possess such
specimens it says that the simplest
means of detecting radio-activity IN a
suspected substance is by the use Of
a Photographic plate-the more sensi-
tive the better. The plate should not
be removed from its inclosing black
paper. The specimen to be tested
should be laid upon this black paper
in dark room and left there from two
to fifteen hours, a small metal object
having first been placed between the
specimen and the black paper on the
plate.
Instead of the metal object a few
small nails may be arranged so as to
form the initial of the owner and left
on the paper-covered plate below the
specimen. After thus remaining In the
dark room the plate should be devel-
oped in the usual manner. If the
specimen tested has radioactive pow
ers photograph Of the metal object
or Of the nail-formed initial will be
produced on the plate exactly as If the
plate had been exposed to the suns
rays. The test should be made, if pos
sible with from half d pound to a
pound Of the material.

WAYS OF COSSACkS

How They Are Organized and Mobi1-
ized-Superior Cavalry.
The latest and probably the most
accurate description of the CossackS
has been published recently in Paris
by Colonel de la Panouze, who is now
retired from active service, after a brill
liant career as French officer of cav
airy and military attache to French
embassies in some European countries,
says the Hartford Times. He says,
among other things:
"In, Europe the Cossacks operate
conformity with the ordinary cavalry,
but in Asia they are the only mounted
troops of the Muscovite empire.
In exchange for homestead and other
privileges the COSsacks are bound to-
military service, and to furnish their
horses, and equipment, uniforms, etc.
There are, according to the official sta
tistics published in 1900 by the i'm
perial commission, $50 regiments Of
mounted Cossacks, three divisions, fiji
ty-three sontnias or squadrons, eight
cen battalions Of infantry and forty
four batteries of light artillery-in all
100000 soldiers and non-commissioned
officers.
The mobilization Of the Cossack
forces is rapidly made, without great
expense of ink and paper The mill
tary posts in the immense steppes, not
being connected by telegraph lines, are
served by "gonzy," or couriers having
the best of the horses, and who stay
permanently near the province govern
ors in order to carry their orders to the
log dwellings of the Cossacks. When
the mobilization order reaches the CEN
trail military administration of the
province each gonetz starts, carrying
in his right hand a small red flag in
daytime and a red lantern at night,
crying, "The Gar calls you! NIobili-
zation!' In a moment all the village
is up.
On the high pole in front of the
municipal building red flag in day
time or red lantern at night is hoist
ed. All the men, accompanied by wom-
en- and children, start for the rallying
place. All the men are clothed in their
finest caftans, Of all colors. Nobody is
missing; even sick men refuse to re-
main behind. Those who would volun-
tarily remain behind would not dare
to return to the village; their mothers,
wives or sisters would gouge out their
eyes, as has happened several times.
The whole Russian Asiatic region
from the Ural Mountains to Vladivos-
tok is colonized by these Cossacks, to
whom could be joined the thousands of
converted Mongols living along the
frontier of Mongolia and Manchuria.
Innumerable re-enforcements in cav
airy can be drawn by Russia to push
toward the East. 1t is calculated that
there are $4,000 horsemen along the
railroad line of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
There would be great danger for Japan
If there was truth in the theory, adj
vanced by General Prjevalsky, that
90. 900 Cossacks would be sufficient. If
need be. to conquer the Chinese en-
Dire."
