obtained the facts from which he made
that leading article In the Star which
had so startled all Washington on the
evening of the Jeffrey wedding. That
they had come from some eyewitness
had no doubt, but who was the eye
witness? Himself? No. Who then?
At first he declined to tell me, but aft
er fuller understanding of my mo-
tives he mentioned the name of young
lady who, while frequent guest at
the most fashionable functions, was
not above supplying the papers with
such little items Of current gossip as
came under her own observation.
How managed to approach this lady
and by what means succeeded in
gaining her confidence are details quite
unnecessary to this narrative. Enough

she talked quite frankly to me and In
SO doing supplied me with clew which
ultimately opened up to me an entirely
new field of inquiry
We had been discussing Mr.. jeffrey
and Miss futile when suddenly and
with no apparent motive beyond the
natural love of gossip, which was her
weakness, she launched out into re-
marks about the bride. The ceremony
had been late. Did know 1t? A half
hour or three-quarters past the time set
for 1t. And why? Because Miss Moore
was not ready. She had chosen to ar
ray herself in the house and had come
early enough for the purpose, but she
would not accept any assistance, not
even that Of her maid, aud of course
she kepr every one waiting. ooh,

Jeffreys at their carriage door
previous to their departure from the
Moore house, and found myself com

at that moment a far prospect for me,
and could only reason from such
facts as l had been able to collect in
Washington
Fixing my mind now on Mrs. Jeffrey,
asked the cause of the many caprices
which had marked her conduct on her
wedding morning. Why had she per-
sisted in dressing alone, and what oc-
casioned the absorption which led to
her Ignoring all appeals at her door at

one answer suggested itself. Her
heart was not in her marriage and
that last hour of her maidenhood had
been an hour of anguish and struggle.
Perhaps she not only failed to love
Francis Jeffrey, but loved some other
man. This seemed improbable, but
things as strange as this have hap
pened in our complex society, and no
reckoning can be made with a wo-
mans fancy. II this was so--and

Two New Steamships for the
Liverpool Line. /
BIG AND FAST fR.IiurERs
Furness, Witty 6 Company Preparing
to Double Trade Between This Port
and LiverpooI-ship Chartered for
New Line to Antwerp.

II was learned yesterday that Fur.
ness, Witty & Company, Ltd, which
operates the Chesapeake e Ohio feet
Of transatlantic freighters between
this port. London and Liverpool, will
add two new steamers to the Newport
News-Liverpool line about January /,
increasing the number of ships in that
service to four The new steamers
will, it is understood, be considerably
larger than any of the. vessels plying
in the transatlantic freight trade out
of this port and will have a carrying
capacity of nearly 10000 tons.
The addition of the two steamers
to the Liverpool line will make an in
crease of nearly 100000 tons a year
in the export business OF this port and
au increase of about $4,000 tons per
year in imports. The steamers will
be fast for freighters and it is reckon
cd that they will each make 10 trips
per year
AT the present time it is not known
what vessels will be put on the line,
but it is very probable that the British
steamships Midas and .Tolosa, which
have just been purchased by the Fur
ness. Witty G Company. Ltd. will
be used in the trade. The Midas was
built at West Hartlepool this year and
the Tolosa has just been completed at
Stockton.
Furness, Witty & Company now
operates the British steamships Shen-
andoah and Kanawha between this
port and Liverpool and Powhatan,
Rappahannock and Allegheny between
here and London.
Some time ago II report was sent
out from Norfolk to the effect that
Furness. Witty & Company would
transfer a part OF its fleet plying out
of this port to England to a proposed
line. between Norfolk and England.
That report was emphatically denied
at the time by officials of, Furness,
Witty g. Company here and it was
said then that in all probability two
new steamers would be added to the
Liverpool Newport News line in a
short time.

BRAVE WOMAN

tBy Associated Press,

MOUNT HOLLEY. N. j., Oct. 3d.
Remarkable nerve and courage was
displayed by Mrs. John G. Sapp, living
near Pemberton. while driving to
Mount Holly with small girl in the
carriage
AS she neared Smaliey's corner she
noticed a. man walking along the
road. On one arm he had a bundle:
the other arm was thrown over, the
neck of COW that was walking along
with him.
Mrs. Sapp asked the man where he
was going, and for reply was told.
with on oath, that it was none of her
business. She replied that she thought
1t was. and ordered him to release
the COW. which she recognized as her
property.
In reply she got volley of oaths,
enough to brighten most women. But
The fellow soon found that Mrs. Sapp
was not to be trified with.
Handing the lines to the child, Mrs.
Sspp jumped from the carriage, and
with her whip she began lively tat,
too all over the fellow. who was un-
able to stand the punishment, and he
soon made himself scarce, leaving the
brave woman in possession of her
COW, which she drove home

Minnesota Wolves.

The wolf bounty law has cost the
State of Minnesota nearly $4,000 dur.
ing the year ending June 30, 1905.
The county auditors of the various
counties have sent in vouchers fo1
1914 wolves for which bounties have
been paid. This represents total
bounty of 2S,799.O0. The State pays
the bounty of $3.50 for each full grown
wolf and ST. for each wolf cub. The
bounties are paid by the county
auditors, who in turn collect from the
State. In some counties wolf hunting
is highly profitable. In Beltrami
county a bounty of SIG is paid for
each female wolf killed. OF this
amount the county pays $3.50 and the
State a like amount. Itasca county
drew the largest amount during the
past year S1,729. Otter Tail county
received s1,673 and Kittson county
