Antoine, good. sturdy old Antoine,
had just been offered the position Of
foreman of a gang in the pineries at
the headwaters of the Lieyres. He had
worked in the lumber camps for years,
but never as foreman, forsooth New
ertheless he hesitated about accepting
it. There was poor little Marie, he
pointed out to Blake. What would be-
come of her?
Poor little Marie!' For the next few
days Blake did good deal of thinking.
Marie had never read Henry James or
Meredith, it was true; she had never
seen poster lady, never heard Ca
MILE and yet in her setting she was
perfect Moreover, she was the sort to
adapt herself readily to new environ
ments And why not?' he argued
finally to himself "She is pure beau
tiful and capable of the deepest, ten
derest feelings. What she has not is
the superficial gloss of society That l
do not want
One evening, pushing his book aside,
Blake glanced across at Marie, whose
eyes, as usual, were bent on her knit
ting. She was humming softly to her
self an old Canadian boat song:
"Descendez a ronbre,
Ma jolie blonde"
| Blake had often heard it above the
blow OF the oars in the rowocks. but
never had the words seemed so fitting
as tonight He rose suddenly and laid
a hand on Antoine's shoulder.
LET me take Mamselle Marie for a
little stroll in the Starlight he said
pleadingly. It's warm in here. 1 will
take good care Of her.
"Eh, m'sieu!' The old man dropped
bis pipe and gagged him silently for
a second with those black beaded eyes
of his. What he read in the younger
mans face must have satisfied HIM
for he said finally, with a little move
ment Of his hand: ct must not be far
See you, m'sieu? And it cannot be fol-
long
Outside through the dusk there was
a silvery glimmer. The woodland stil
seemed like a sigh. Blake looked down
closely into the little face beside him
In the mind Of the girl something in
detinable had arisen, something which
had stolen away all her gay caprices
and set her trembling.
ana petite blondew Blake used the
soft provincial word for sweethear
that Marie had used in her song. Hi.
tone was one of gentle entreaty; hi.
attitude was that of reverence.
'Ma petite blonde" he repeated, tax
ing her hand and lifting it softly to hi
lips, Il want you for my little wife
Will you let me take care of you al
ways?"
She looked at him with wide, sur
prised eyes and slightly parted lips.

you to take care of me?' 1t seemed
incredible.
For answer he drew her to him a
knight of old would have drawn

drafts of gazing; then with a super
motion of surrender Marie reached u
and put her arms about his head

ANOTHER CAR
Reform Leaders Threaten to Call As
sembIy and Choose One.

Chicago, July 10.-A special cable
gram to the Daily News from st. Pc
tersburg says:
From a most reliable source your
correspondent is informed that the To-
cal reform leaders of Moscow. most Of
whom hold official appointments, have
resolved that IL the czar should persist
in his unyielding attitude they will
convoke n national assembly and elect
another czar. Nicholas, however seems
to appreciate the gravity of the situa-
ton. His object in selecting Washing
ton as the site for the peace negotia-
tions and Count Muravieff as one OF
the ENJOYS was to gain time.
He hoped that in the meantime the
interior troubles would subslde and
that Gen. Linevitch, having been re-
enforced, would show the Russians in
a favorable light in the field Events
have upset these calculations. The
country is torn by revolution. Moscow
itself threatens to name a provisional
government.
Japan has now occupied the island of
Sakhalien and brought the war into
Russian territory. General Hasegawa
is fastening to invade the province of
Ussuri and thus the Japanese ENJOYS
will not proceed to Washington at once.
The czar will also leave for Moscow.
He will invade various Mayors of
cities now in conference there to meet
him at the Illinsky palace, where he
will declare his readiness to yield to
their request for reforms and will ask
for their support.

plow through hundreds of people if he
kept in his course, turned his horses

nearly all children, were in the track

TO GIRL
BULLET IN BRAIN
A SUICIDE INSTEAD OF AN ELoPE.
MENT.
His Fiancee Rushed to the Hotel Only
to Find Her Lover
Dead.

Chicago, July 10.-After sending a
note by special messenger to the girl
with whom he was to have eloped to
indianapolis tonight, notifying her of
his intention to commit suicide, Glenn
ent r. Beatty, a young insurance
agent, took room at a downtown ho-
tel today and sent a bullet through his
brain.
The first intimation the hotel peo-
pie had of the suicide was when a
handsome young woman, apparently
greatly excited, rushed up to the clerk
this afternoon and asked for the occu-
pant of a certain room. The clerk
called the room or the telephone, but
received no answer. The girl then
handed him letter which read:
MY Dear Josie: Prior to this letters
arrival | will have killed myself My
plans have been far-fetched, have ut
terly failed, and now have nothing to
live for. Keep a stiff upper lip and
push toward the mark in life. Good
bye, dear. GLEN"
Hotel employees at once rushed to the
room. burst in the door, and found
Beaty's body stretched across the bed
A note was lying on the table directing
that his brother, whose address was
given. should be notified
The young woman proved to be his
fiance, Miss Josie Wagner. The young
people had been engaged for some
time, but the match had been strongly
opposed by Beatty's mother and broth
er. Finally the couple decided to go to
indianapolis and be married there.
Miss Wagner said this evening that all
plans had been completed on Saturday
evening. She knew that Beatty had
been in financial difficulties for some
time, but to what extent she was un-
aware. When the letter, written on the
hotel stationery reached her today she
took a carriage and hastened down
town, but reached the place too late.
Beatty's mother and elder brother
declined this afternoon to allow the
young woman to see the remains. Miss
Wagner has been employed in a de-
partment store here, having come from
