She gave little cry of pleasure a.
they drove up to The Nutshell, as Da-
vid had named it. Here time seemed
to have stood still. The vine covered
porch. the flower beds, the old apple
orchard and the little rustic seat in the
arbor were the same. She went over
the whole pace. Every spot was re-
plete with beautiful memories. The
next morning she arose with a little
tremor of excitement running through
her veins.

light. delicate gown she was d0nning.
Her hair still waved softly back from
her brow with an occasional escaping
ring. as it had in her youth. Her
thoughts and hopes had brought deli
cate pink flush to her checks.
After breakfast she went through
the meadows and down the lane to a
piece of cool. dark woods that slirted
the river. Her heart beat almost pain
fully as she came nearer to her desti-
nation.
Il am a foolish Old woman" she told
herself. "Of course no one will be
therew
Some one was there however. A
tall. familiar form came quickly to-
ward her
"Oh, Davidr' she cried, with little
gasp. Il was afraid you wouldn't
come"
You knew l would" he asserted.
But wait"
He put his arms about her and half
led her through the woods. Not Il
word was spoken She guessed what
was in his mind and smiled happily
when he led her to a certain tree apart
from the others.
There" he said. Now l feel thirty
years younger, and. Helen, you look
not year older than you did when we
were here last"
"Oh, David! When | was left alone
there in that big house the longing
came to see you once more, but |
didn't dare hope you would come"

"Have you, David? | didn't want

Yes, | know. 1t was always Julia
and Walter but their day is over"

responsible for his turning aside from
the practice of law upon his entrance
to the bar and engaging in newspaper
work instead, in which he won a repu-
tation as writer on political subjects.
He took up story writing in connection
with journalism, and it was in this way
that he brought out in 1901 his most
famous work, "The Thirteenth Dis
trict," stirring novel of politics.
4 few years ago Mr.. Whitlock en-
tered upon the practice of the legal pro-
fesSion in Toledo. His interest in the
kind of politics represented by the late
Mayor Samuel NJ. Jones led him to
support that successful reformer with
enthusiasm He was one of the most
trusted friends of the Golden Rule
mayor" When the latter died the cor
pOration and machine politicians sup
posed that the rule of the Golden Rule
in Toledo was at an end, and stocks of
public service corporations took Il boom.
But Toledo had learned we'll the les
sons taught by the dead mayor, and in
the last election the novel writing law
yer, who had been nominated on a
Golden Rule platform, rallied the indie
pendents to his support and was swept
into office by a large majority.

through her portraits of the Chinese
dowager empress, TsiAn, and was for
eleven months a resident of the i'm

way she came to obtain the knowledge
of Chinese customs and character and
of the imperial family which she has
embodied in her book. Miss Carl was
born in New Orleans, spent her early
years in Memphis and eighteen years

where she studied under the best artists.

Ohio, like Indiana, bids fair to be-

mayor elect of Toledo, Brand Whit

son to round up the reform sentiment
of the Buckeye State in the conference
of mayors elect called at Cleveland.
Mr.. Whitlock is the author of The
Thirteenth District" Her Infinite Va

man upon whom the mantle of Golden

at Urbana in 1869 and is the son of
minister. the Rev. Elias d. Whitlock.

Prices FalI-ShrinIzage in Dealings
 Uncertain Close. New York, June 12.-The stock mar ket to-day did not fulfill the promise held out by Saturdays short market of a revived demand and higher prices for stocks. The selling attracted by Satur- days sharp rise in prices proved too much for the limited demand to absorb. The market yielded decisively and the first selling was followed up by addi- tional burdens of the same source. As the day progressed the pressure relax ed and prices made some slow recoy- cries. In a few stocks there was spe- cial strength, which offered a leader ship for the rally. The later dealings showed a marked shrinkage in volume from those ill the first hour, while the accumulated selling orders were being Eexecuted.
 The turn in the temper of the mar ket had no positive news developments to account for it. The fact was quick ly demonstrated, however, that the market was still strictly in profession l al hands. The movement of Saturday weakened the technical position by the reduction of the short interest in driv- | ing to cover some of the shorts who were alarmed by the evidence of strength in the market An element of potential strength was thus reduced. At the same time the quick extension of the long interest on the part of the professionals increased the weight on the market when the instability of prices was perceived.
 l The holidays, which were general tabroad, deprived the market of one possible source of the demand which might have been stimulated by the. developments of peace prospects. The government crop report, which appear 1 ed Saturday afternoon, proved to be the subject of such varying interpreta- I tions as are common in the grain nlar- kets at the critical period of the mak- ling of the crops. The special pressure fagainst AmalgamatedlC Copper was con- nected in the minds of professional op- orators with a campaign having it's
 source in Boston. The Metropolitan
 stocks owed their strength to infer IeHCeS IEpll lltc IICW ddSPASSo O@ SAAS
 Equitable Life Assurance society. Dis
 cussion of that subject was less opti-
 mistic than on Saturday, and it was
 urged that the forthcoming report of
 the state superintendent of insurance
 must be awaited to form definite Judgment on the new plan.
 The postponement of the call for the
 return of government deposits from
 July 1 to July 15 promised relief from
 one possible embarrassment of the
 money market in connection with the |half-yearly settlements. The tone of
 the weekly comments on traffic by rail- road officials showed some conserva- ltism.

sports, the principal event being a
tug of war between the towns of
Reading and Weathersfield, which
was won by Reading.

to make the principal address, was
unavoidahly detained, and the time
was filled in by old residents, who
gave "reminiscences of the early days
and life in the town.
At o'clock the little common in
front of the schoolhouse was filled
with an interested audience to whom
