WINGED her that Jack was not there.
AS they appeared on the steps the
laughter and voices ceased, and a we'll
bred glance of curiosity was turned
upon her.
Lady Bell was, however, equal to the
occasion.
Come along, Una," she said, gayly.
Fanny, will you make room beside you
for Miss Roller"
The Countess Of Pierrepoint smiled
How do you do, Miss Rolfe!" she
said graciously. 81 hear you were at
Lady Bells dance last night; why did
you let her hide you SO completely?"
Una was silent.
Fortunately Dalrymple made so
much hustle and fuss in starting, that
conversation for a minute or two was
impossible; and before that minute
or two had passed, Una had gained her
lself-possession
Seated about, she recognized several
of the people Lady Bell had pointed
out on the preceding evening: Lady
Clarence, Mrs. Cantup, the Marchio-
ness of Fairfield. Beside Dalrymple,
who had all his work cut out in keep
ing the four spirited nags in good con-
duct in the crowded London streets,
sat, as matter Of course, Sir Arkroyd
Hetley, while one or two other men
one of whom she heard addressed as
the viscount-was with the ladies.
Had Una been naturally nervous, her
timidity could not long have existed In
such an atmosphere.
Her companions were among the
highest in the land; but there was less
reserve and ceremony than would
have been found in a similar gather
ing of middle-class people. The men
were laughing and chatting, even and
again turning round to make some
Hght-hearted remark, or pass some
joke round. They were all, it was
evident, bent on enjoying themselves.
Very soon Una found herself brought
into the conversation, Lady Bell talk
ing to her continually, and pointing out
the lions Of the road.
The roses came back into Unas face
in full bloom, her heart beat more
lightly, and her spirits rose as the four
impatient horses dashed along the
roads which now ran through the beau
tiful vicinity of Richmond.
She had -almost-forgotten
that Jack was not there, when happen
ing to glance round suddenly at Lady
Bell, she saw her looking dreamily be-
fore her, evidently lost in thought, with
a wistful dropping of the bright red lips
and disappointed shadow in the dark
eyes.
Then Una knew that it was not only
she herself who felt the absence Of
the missing one.
However, Lady Bell soon rallied,
and when they drove up to the hotel
she was as bright as ever.
To be continued.

She held out her hand-not a tiny,
meaningless one, but long, shapely
eloquent hand-and put it, into his
broad, strong one.
"Good-night!" she said, and her voice
grew wondrously low and gentle in its
caressing, clinging tones. Good
night"
Jack felt the slender fingers, warm
through the thin gloves, cling round
his fingers.
Goodnight" she said, huriedly.

THE LUMBER TRADE
As Seen by the West Coast
and Puget Sound
Il umberman.

The shingle manufacturer who can and
does not shut down is certainly not
posted on conditions.
If there is any strength in numbers,
the petitions for a forty.cent rate should
bring the desired results.
Whether you are controlled" or not
controlled" you should shut down your
single mill at once.
The shutting down proposition might
be extended to the saw mills. A vaca-
ton OF one month now could be taken
without any expense.
Another trans.continental road to
Washington and Oregon offers most
attractive field for capital. The business
is already at hand.
The year 1904 should not close until
every lumber manufacturer notifies his
employees that sticking plckaroons in the
face Of clear stock must stop.
When there are two carloads of shin
giles and only one wanted, the buyer will
come pretty near setting the piice.
Shingles and sugar are ruled by the same
trade laws.
The fire at Baltimore and the one at
Aberdeen, Washington, were alike pecu-
liar in the fact that the lumber interests
in neither suffered to any great extent.
1t can only be hoped that their good
luck will follow them into the Lberless
beyond.
Washington pine has recently been
called gray fir" That wood has had
enough names to please colored
mother. Once en- time it was called
Alaska pine. Under all names it has
behaved veil, and is growing in the es-
TEEN Of all who know good lumber.
As one OF the side issues in the lum.
Der trade of Washington, the manufac.
turing Of cross-arms is worthy OF note.
Last year perhaps one thousand cars
were manufactured and sold. These
average about 1000 arms to the car. A
high grade of fir is called for to satisfy
the users Of arms.

TAX TITLES GOOD.
U. S. Supreme Court Strengthens Them
Greatly.

Greatly.
The supreme court OF the United
States on Feb. % handed down a decis-
ion which is Of great interest to all
persons holding tax title to land.
The case went up from Nebraska and
covers the very point in which the cases
of this state are most attacked, and the
one attorneys must feared. This was
tie point OF necessity OF notification of
all claimants, or lien holders. The
supreme court holds that where the
taxes have been paid and due process
has been taken under the state law oil
foreclosing the claim, that deed must
issue.
In the Nebraska case it was claimed
that due notice of foreclosure had not
been given, and the case was brought
under the Fourteenth amendment which
provides that no man shall be deprived
of his property without due process o.
law.
The court sustains the state in it's
collection of properly assessed taxes. 1t
is the most important decision on this
particular phase Of the law rendered in
years.
