CHAPTER VII.
At "The KINGS Arms

The news of the duel spread with
the proverbial rapidity of evil news.
Batayius heard the story from many a
lip as he went home. He was bitterly
indignant at Katherine, and hot with
haste and anger when he reached Van
Heemskirk's house.
Madam stood with Joanna on the
front stoop, looking anxiously down
the road.
Just as Dinorah said, THE tea is
served, madam" the large figure of
Batavius doomed through the gather
ing grayness; and the women waited
for him. He came up the steps with
out his usual greeting; and his face
was so injured and portentous that
Joanna, with little cry, put her arms
round his neck. He gently removed
them.
mo time is this, Joanna, for en-
bracing. A great disgrace has come to
the family; and /, who have always
stood up for morality, must bear 1t,
too"

Murder or Suicide?

The coroner's jury impanelled to in
vestigate the death of MILFORD A. S.
Vermillion, the young druggist who
was found dead behind the prescrip-
ton counter in his store in Salt Lake
City, on Monday night, declare the
young man was murdered. Death was
due to pistol wound With the cor
oner's jury agree many friends of the
dead man who insist that absolutely
no motive for selfdestruction existed.
Suicide, the police and county author
tiles declare, is the only theory that
can be accepted at this time.

IN THE LAST DITCH.
Russians at Port Arthur Can Not
Hold Out Much Longer.

A junk which left Lao I'll promon-
tory the night of August q has Just
arrived at Chefoo. She reports that
the Japanese have succeeded in &C.
cupying Antszchan fort as well as an
other fort, probably Etzshan, about a
mile southwest of Antszchan. They
have driven the Russians from the
parade ground, which lies about two
miles north of the harbor; they have
destroyed two forts at Chaochanko,
which is within the eastern fortifica-
lions, and they have advanced to a
point near Chaochanko. This news
confirms information received at Che
foo previously and which the local
Japanese were not inclined to believe.
The junk heard firing until mid
night of August %.
Scarcely a building in Port Arthur
remains unchanged. The town hall,
which was used as a magazine, has
been destroyed.
Four large warships unable to fight
are at Port Arthur. Only one ship,
vessel with two masts and two fun
nels, has guns on board
The fire of the forts not captured
by the Japanese, together with the eff
feet of land mines, is given as the
reason why the Japanese have not as
yet conquered the Russian stronghold.

TRANSFERS WILL WORK.
Decide to Give No Further Aid to
Butchers Strike.

The members of the Chicago Team
STEERS union who have been on strike
for several weeks in the effort to aid
the striking butchers at the stock
yards held protracted meeting Tues
day night to determine whether or
not they, should withdraw from the
strike. The meeting lasted until aft.
er midnight, and at times the argu-
ments were heated. 1t was finally de-
cided that the teamsters as a body
would refuse to give any further as
distance to the strike and the ques-
ton of remaining on strike or of go
ing back to work was left to the vote
Df the various local unions.

CHAPTER v.-continued.

Neil was intensely angry, and his
lark eyes glowed beneath their
dropped lids with a passionate hate.
But he left his father with an as
sumed colGness and calmness-
The sarcastic advice annoyed him,
and he wanted time to fully consider
ais ways. He was no physical COW
.rd he was a fine swordsman, and he
ielt that it would be a real joy to stand
with drawn rapier between himself
Ind his rival. But what if revenge
cost him too much? What if he slew
Hyde, and had to leave his love and
his home, and his fine business prs
poets? To win Katherine, and to
marry her, in the face of the man
whom he felt that he detested; would
not that be the best of all "satisfac-
tions?"
He walked about the streets, dis
GUESSING these points with himself, till
the shops all closed, and on the stoops
Of the houses in Maiden Lane and Lib
srty street there were merry parties
Of gossiping bellies and beaux. Then
he returned to Broadway.
Still debating with himself, he came
to a narrow road which ran to the
river, along the southern side of Van
Heemskirk's house. Coming swiftly
up it, as If to detain him, was Capt.
Hyde The two men looked at each
Dther defantly; and Neil said with a
cold, meaning emphasis:
AT your service, sir"
"Mr. Semple, at your service, and
touching his Ito the very hilt,
SIR"
"Sir, yours to the same extremity"
las for the cause, Mr.. Semple, here
1t Isl" and he pushed aside his en-
broidered coat in order to exhibit to
Neil the bow of orange ribbon be-
Meath it.
Il will dye it crimson in your blood"
said Neil passionately.
In the meantime, have the felicity
Of wearing it," and with an extensively
deep salute, he terminated the inter
view.

WORK OF DYNAMITERS.
Hundreds of Lives Endangered in At
tempt to Wreck Reservoir.


tempt to Wreck Reservoir.
Before daybreak Tuesday the gates
at the head of ST. Marys, Ohio, reser-
voir were blown up by dynamite. The
report of the explosion was heard for
miles. The buildings here we're sha1-
en- and windows were broken. Intense
excitement prevails. but every pre-
caution has been taken to prevent a
flood. Many consider the reservoir a
menace to surrounding farms.
If the explosion had blown out the
entire bulkhead and opened the food
gates hundreds of lives doubtless
would have been lost. This bulkhead
is one through which the Miami &
Erie canal is fed and the reservoir is
the largest artificial body of water
in the world Bloodhounds have been
put on the trail of the dynamiters.
There has been much i'll feeling
among the people living in the vicin-
ity of the reservoir, owing to the
widespread belief that the banks Of
the big body of water are not safe
Notwithstanding the state has spen;
large sums of money in Strengthening
the earthworks.

were accorded senator, congressman,
three electors and sport-term uni

CHAPTER vi.
At the Swords Point.

Neil's first emotion was not so much
one of anger as of exultation. 81 shall
have him at my swords point" he
kept saying to himself as he turned
from Hyde to Van Heemskirk's house
Katherine sat upon the steps of the
stoop. Touching her, to arouse her
attention, Neil said, Come with me
down the garden, my love-"
She looked at him wonderingly, but
rose at his request and gave him her
hand
Then the tender thoughts which had
lain so deep in his heart flew to his
bps. and he wood her with a fervor
and nobility as ASTONISHING to himself
rs to Katherine. He reminded her of
all the sweet intercourse of their hap
by lives, and of the fidelity with which
he had loved her. ooh, my Katherine,
my sweet Katherine Who is there
that can take you from me?"
mo one will l marry. With my
father and my mother l will stay"
Eyes, till you learn to love me as
love you, with the whole soul. You
are to be my wife, Katherine?"
THAT have not said"
Katherine, is it true that Capt.
Hyde is wearing bow of your orange
ribbon?"
yes. A bow of my St. Nicholas rib
bon gave him.
"Why?"
me he loves, and him love-"
you have more st. Nicholas rib
bons? Go and get me one. Get bow,
Katherine, and give it to me- l will
wait here for it."
mo, that I will not do How false,
how wicked l would be. if two lovers
my colors worel"
well, then, I will cut my bow from
Hyde's breast. l will, though l cut
his heart out with it."
He turned from her as he said the
words, and. without speaking to Joris.
passed through the garden gate to his
own home.
In the calm of his own chamber,
through the silent, solemn hours,
when the world was shut out of his
life, Neil reviewed his position, but
he could find no honorable way out of |
the predicament. He was quite SEN
sible that his first words to Capt. !
Hyde that night had been intended to /
provoke a quarrel and he knew that |
he would be expected to redeem them
by a formal defiance. However, as
the idea became familiar. it became
and at length it was with
a fierce satisfaction he opened his
desk and without hesitation wrote the
decisive words:
TO Capt. Richard Hyde of His Males

conduct of which you
lave been guilty to pass without pun

 Perkins is originally from New Hamp- shire, and is endorsed by the New Eng land senators. Among them are Sen atOrs Dillingham; and Ga..luger.
 The California senators are urging Roberts claim.
 Although Brady's term eS9trcs next month, it Is uoy certain that the ap- pointmeut will be made uu-i, late in the summer. The governor left for the west today, after seeing the president and Secretary Hitchcock. The latter Is not strongly impressed w.,b Brady s strength, but is no, opposing his reap pOintment.
 The president desires to make it known that the governor now has the best chance of winning, and unless the situation changes materially, he will get a commission for his third term.
