AT the door OF Baron Mainau'sapartment
stood two new travelling cases. which had
evidently only just arrived. Raoul's eyes
glistened when he caught sight OF them.
as II in spirit he had already crossed
mountain and dale, river and sea, and
was far away from Schonwerth, out in
the beautiful East
"Ah, I see my trunks are come. I am
glad" he said. joyously lifting the lid OF
one OF them, and trying the hinges and
lock. while Lame left him and went on 70
the housekeeper's room to give her orders
for the following day.
The housekeeping at Schonwerth was
no easy task for the young wife. The
Hofmarschall had silently acquiesced in
her assuming the control OF the house:
, but his penurious disposition. and being
obliged TO account 10 him for every far
thing she spent. made the duties an irk-
some and onerous task. His unlimited
suspicion, his fear OF being robbed OF even
one penny. and his belief that every one
deceived him. were daily sources OF anx-
iety and worry TO the young mistress
The only reason for his dislike to his
nephew's second marriage arose from
this cause; he feared that more money
would be spent and extravaganza and
luxury take the place OF his miserly
habits and mean, close expenditure.
Lame soon found out how he watched
her actions and interfered in all her ar
rangements and that nothing went on
at the castle that he did not more or
| less spy into a. far as was posi- BILE:
even her letters were always passed
! through his hands before they were

To her dearest daughters" Kindness.
and begged her To send some OF her
| riches a little OF her pin-money, 80 help
| her mother 90 recover her health
That the Hofnarschall had read this
| letter Lame had no doubt; but she was
convinced OF the fact by the malicious.
triumphant, fixed look he gave her when
she met him at dinner IN the dining
room or these constant worries. small
as they were she made no mention to
her husband In his presence the Hof-
marschall kept q guard on HIS temper
and tongue and treated her with
marked poiiteness and respect Besides
a. she thought 20 herself what advant-
age would she gain II she did complain;
and that. too. 20 one who would have
peace at any sacrifice? so she said moth

There was something OF a sensation
learned that Alvin Downey, the superin-
tendent for the Joy line in this city has
obtained a lease OF the property below
the bridg. known as the Clyde line dock
from the Thomas J. Hin estate for a
period of 10 years.
IL is stated that the JOY line has moth
Ing 10 do with the transfer and that MIR.
Downey conducted his negotiations with
Thomas Davis. the manager OF the es-
tate solely for himself. The wharf will
be used for the big ocean tugs that come
here with tows and will be fitted with
facilities for filing their ounkers with
coal and their water tanks as we'll as
'affording with a place to take on stores
OF all sortE.
There are a great many OF these big
tugs that come here from week TO week
and ss these are controlled for the most
part by two or three big transportation
companes, Mr.. Downey will act as the
local agent for them.
In case Of an opposition line OF river
tugs coming Ia here, rs has often been
euggested. the wharf which is 300 feet

and bracing. They drove out Of
town, across the river bridge and
along the main road for a mile; then
they turned into the bottoms on a
road that was seldom used. The
bottom overflowed badly at this
point; consequently there were thous-
ands cf acres of oak and hickory and
walnut forests which had not been dis
turbed. The owners hoped some day
to overcome the tendency to over
flow, and in the meantime considered
that the timber, while yielding abund-
ance of nuts was also growing into
value, being the surest and best crop
they could raise. Many went into
