dressed for dinner" she cried Il found
it lust as HiLadi sees it, when | came here
an hour ago"
The missive bore no stamp. 1t was
correctly addressed, and .Ermyntrude,
like every other woman, turned 1t over
and examined the envelop curiously be-
fore she opened it. She wondered who
had adopted this surreptitious method
of communication with her, but wonder
rapidly Welded to something akin to fear
when she read:
Dear Madam-It would have been better
for you and your relations had you departed
from Bannofka sooner, though 1t is probable
that you would not have been permitted to
go. On no account accompany Prince Meln1-
koff to the Dukhof Monastery when the ex-
cursion is proposed to you. 1t will be wise if
you dissuade your father and brother from
taking the journey. They should insist on
departing instantly for Saratoff and Moscow.
In any event, you must not visit Dukhof.
The letter was unsigned and undated.
1t was written in good English, but in
a caligraphy difficult to cipher. Ermyn-
trude, who was beginning to distrust
everything she saw or heard, resolved
at once to do that which she ought to
have done sooner.
Julie" she said, ''go and ask Lord
birmingham to come to me. He is in
his room; but he will not have retired
yet"
Her brother obeyed her summons
quickly Dismissing the maid, she told
him of the visit of Vladimir Sassulitch;
of his startling revelations; of Prince
Melnikoff's tacit acceptance of the mans
statements; and finally of the letter,
which she handed to him to read.
You are pretty deep, Ernie he
said, his brows wrinkling over the queer
events which EMBODIED them so mysteri
ously. Why didn't you tell me sooner
about these occurrences?
Don't blame me, Jimmie she said
humbly. Il acted for the best. l
thought that my own folly had brought
me into a position of some difficulty,
and | resolved to extricate myself
without dragging dad and you into the
quarrel
But Prince Boris took his dismissal

You have seen that for yourself. No
one could have behaved better than he |
during the last few days. | feel quite |
ashamed of myself, though have not
altered my mind in the least degree.
admire him, but l never could marry
him
This letter is very odd 1t suggests
dangers which it does not describe And
the writer evidently knows the Princes |
affairs as well as he knows them him
self"
That is the alarming feature of the
affair" she said, looking about the
beautiful room apprehensively, as if she
expected some apparition to appear.
He laughed at her action. 1T is non
sensical for us to bother our heads about |
local intrigues," he said. Within forty
eight hours we shall be packing up for
departure. Candidly, l shall be pleased |
to see you back in town; but if Melnikoff |
asks me | shall come here again next
year
But what shall we do about the ex-
cursion tomorrow? All arrangements |
are made. l heard the Prince giving in
structions for some special sleighs to be
ready at ten o'clock"

Il can be indisposed."
WELL do as you like. 1t is hard to
see what trouble can overtake you when
dad and l are with YOU
Dubious still, she yielded to his advice
"Therei" she said watching the letter
curling into black wisps as it was con-
sumed by the flames. 4 agree with
you, Jimmie. 1t is stupid for us to take
part or parcel in affairs which do not
concern us. l shall go with you to Duk-
| hof, and sit in the robber chieftains
chair, if it pleases me and it is clean
Il suppose you lock your doors before
you retire to rest?" asked her brother
laughingly.
Julie has a spare key Since my weird
visitor put in an appearance bar myself
against other intruders.'
Next morning they set off soon after
ten o'clock. Though the thermometer
registered fifteen degrees below zero, the
sun was shining, there was no wind, and
the air was as exhilarating as champagne
Two sleighs stood at the door Into the
first of these Prince Melnikoff handed
Ermyntrude, who was robed in sable and
fox, her feet being incased in felt over
shoes The comfortable vehicle was
loaded with furs, and to insure warmth
at the start, a hot-water bottle rested
among the furs at her feet.
Prince Boris was a splendid figure
in his astrakhan coat and cap, while the
driver, his curly beard shining with oil,
was a picturesque parsonage in a three
cornered fur hat and huge padded coat
tightly strapped around his waist by an
embroidered belt. A pair of fine horses
champed impatiently at their bits. Over
their quarters was spread blue-silk netting
to prevent the snow spurned by their
flying heels from being flung into Ermyn-
trude's face, while the reins were covered
with blue silk and held in the drivers
two hands.

| LILO hdiiN.
To-day Prince Me1nikof was in his
liveliest mood His talk was of ST.
Petersburg, of society, of the subtle differ
ences between the aristocracies of Europe
He never had been more interesting.
He treated Ermyntrude as an old friend,
and there was not the slightest suspicion
of the discarded lover in his manner.
She enjoyed the drive immensely.
The Prince had not erred when he de-
scribed the scenery as wild and lonely.
The road wound through wooded gorges
and across rocky valleys, while the fierce
looking Cossack escort added to the
picturesqueness of the journey.
They reached the monastery in time
for lunch. They saw the famous ivory
chair, and Ermyntrude fulfilled her vow
by sitting in it. Her action seemed to
scare the quantity attired monks who
were doing the honors of the place One
of them sprang forward to prevent her;
but he was too late. Prince Boris, who
flushed little, said something in Rus
sian, and the monk drew back, but the

The Sunday Law Bill

Among the many bills before the
present Legislature there is none
of more general interest than that
introduced by Representative
Quinn regarding the Observance Of
the Sabbath. 1t is not SO many
months ago since a sudden appli-
cation was made of certain obso-
lete blue laws which have long
been on the statute book. The laws
were. applied at the instance of the
Governor who made no secret
whatever of belief in the theory
that the best way to get rid of poor
laws is to rigidly enforce them.
The result of the enforcement is
we'll known by everybody and now
that the spasm has passed it is
very plain that the old time blue
laws are receiving exactly the
same respect that they did before

sanction.
There will be little quarrel in
this community with the propro-
sition to allow flowers to be sold
on Sundays. The opening of cigar
stores and soda, water fountains
will harm no one and the official
allowance of games in such man7.

do not pay the games themselves
