Farnham was speechless. like one

and now he had met an obstacle against
which II seemed that nothing could be
done. If he had planned his avowal, he
might have been prepared for rejection:
but he had been hurried into il with
no thought OF what the result would
lie, and he was equally unprovided for
either issue. In face of the unwaverine
voice and bearing of Alice. who seemec
ten times more beautiful than ever as
she stood before him as steady and un>
responsive as a young Fate. his hot
speech seemed suddenly smitten power

She did not dare to say another word.

him her hand; it was soft and warm
as he pressed it; and if he had only
known how much softer and warmer
her heart was. he would have covered
her hand with a thousand kisses. But
he bowed and took his leave. and she
stood by the lattice and saw him go
away, with eyes full OF tears and a
breast filled with the tenderest ruth

intention evidently was TO turn the
horse around and start him down the
path by which he had come. Farnham

Farnham walked down the path TO the
gate. then turned TO go TO his own
house. with no very definite idea of
what direction he was taking The inter-
view he had just had was still powerful
ly affecting his senses. He was conscious
Of no depression from the prompt and
decided refusal he had received. He was

thoughts were full OF his own avowoI
OF the beauty OF his young mistress
rather than OF her coldness. Seeing his

an instant. and then at his boots. with a
sudden recollection that he had intended
10 ride He walked rapidly TO the stable
where his horse was still waiting. and
rode al a brisk trot out of the avenue
for few blocks. and then struck off
into a sandy path that led to the woods
by the river side.

from his heart when he saw Alice de-

that such a thing could ever happen to

Even while exchang ging these few
words. Alice felt herself growing slight
" embarrassed, and il filled her with
dismay. II am a poor creature" she
thought. IF I cannot get this self-sat-
isfied gentleman out of the house with
out breaking down. I can't stand here
forever, though" and so she took a seat.
and as Arthur resumed his willow chair
with an air of content. she could not
but feel that as yet the slOirmish was
not in her favor. She called her angry
spirit to her aid. and nerved herself 10
say something which would promptly
close the interview.
His next words gave her the oppor-
tunity.

and she said firmly, Yes
But the effort was too great. and after
the word was launched her mouth broke
UP into, nervous smile. for which she
despised herself, but which she could
not control for her life.
Farnham was so pleased with the
smile that he cared nothing for the
word. and so he continued in tone OF
anxious and coaxing good-nature, every
word increasing her trouble:
You are wrong as you can be. / am
a much better groom than Andrews.
He has rather more style, admit. on
account Of his Scotch accent and his
rheumatism. But 1 might acquire
these. 1 will be very attentive and re-
spectful. / will ride at proper dis

The statement circulated on
the street last Friday afternoon
that the defendants in the suit Of
Jos. Bray against Gray and Bart
lev had the costs to pay, was IN
correct. The court dismissed the
$4,000 damage suit with de-
PENDANTS costs, which means
that plaintiff must not only pay
his own costs, but all of defend
ants.

entered till the jury was paid by
plaintiff. which she refused to do
hence the verdict was destroyed,
thereby saving Kennedy 500.
The plaintiff also saved. To
have received the 500 from
Kennedy, she would have had to
pay the $3.50 and costs.

COUNTY BEARS THE BURDEN.

A peculiar condition arose last
week over the paying OF the jury
in the case of MCGEE VS.. Miller
ct. al. The law provides that
the party in whose favor the YER
dict is given shall pay the jurors
before the verdict is recorded.
Their fees are afterwards insert
ed in a cost bill, which must be
paid b. the losing party, unless
he is execution proof; provided,
unless the winning litigant re-
covers more than $500 judgment,
he stands all costs.
In the above case, the jury
brought in verdict in favor of
Mrs. MCGEE and against d. c.
Kennedy for 500; but she and her
attorneys refused to pay the jur-
ors. AS she refused, and the court
had no legal right to ask it Of Mr.
Kennedy, it looked for while as
though the jury would get nix
for their five days services on
the case. The jurors refused to
leave their seats till they knew
where their money was coming
from. and might have been sitting
there vet had not Judge Brown
come to their rescue by making
an order that the county settle
the $50 bill.
The Judge certainly did right
under the conditions. In nc
other way could the jurors get
the So due each of them. But il
was the case of the county paying
the bill of an individual-a bill
which the law states the prevail
ing party shall pay. The Clerk
is still wondering where his pay
will come from.
Moral: o. The next legisla-
ture should enact a law requiring
the party who calls for a jury to
put up a bond for the fees. O.
The Clerk should, when asked
to do work for irresponsible par
ties, take advantage OF the stat
ute which permits him to insist
on prepayment of fees. Is.
Parties should not go to law un-
less they are able to raise sutii'
cient funds to pay their legltl
mate expenses.
In the above case both PLAIN
tiff and defendant came out OF
court without eitLe' receiving
a Judgment. As stated above
the law would not permit the
verdict against Kennedy to be
