ipice face turned her plaintive noes to a
thin wailing. The grim faces OF the SER
wants, passing in and out, silently, ex-
cept for the jangling Of the big keys,
oppressed the spirits OF both. A sort OF
desperate recklessness possessed the low
ers,-they paced their rooms, in and out
OF those corridor doors, up to the line
beyond which 1t was death to pass; and
a great despair came upon them.
Winter gave way at last to spring,
and even on that bare mountain top.
where the world stretched away from
their view a thousand feet below, the
new balm came to renew the lovers
passion. Not once had Edwin taken pen
to write his defeat; not once had Henri
eta failed to gain courage from a fresh
sight OF the man who loved her. Some
times. in lull Of the everlasting noun

other to be brave and faithful
The earth was released from the grin
Of the snow, and young leaves came out to
clothe the trees on the beautiful New
Hampshire hills. At last the little lakes
that dotted a broad, green valley shone
up to the prisoners like bright jewels on
a warm, full bosom. Life, throbbing, new,
eternal. woke the flame Of love TO white
heat. The DEGREES of man seemed i'm
potent, unreal. Heaven-sent love, the
cry Of man to maid, and Of the spring to
young hearts, swept the lovers reason
and fear to the winds. A great cry, like
challenge to God, rang out from the
boys lips
my love do you fear death?" And
the answer, keyed to an exultant pitch,
rang back.

"Ah! then come" With the words
Edwin sprang forward to meet the on
coming rush OF the mad girl One step
over the white dead line, and the floor
was creaking like thin ice. Two steps,
and 1t was swaying like a showman's
net. With the touch OF hand to hand, the
frail foundation splintered and fell with
a crash in which were mingled the terri
fed scream Of the girl and the exultant
cry of the infatuated lover.
"Sir. my master babe me give you this

in a panic of wonder.
The youth opened the paper and read:

Tuberculosis Commission May Be Apot-
ished.
The members OF the state tuberculosis
commission have come to the conclusion
that their duties can be attended to
eficiently and conveniently by the state
board Of health, and in their biennial re-
port, soon to be submitted to the legis-
Iature, will take the unusual course OF
recommending the adjustment OF the
commission. They will also recommend
that the work of the commission be trans
ferred to the state board Of health, and
that a bill be passed by the legislature
transferring the appropriation OF $1,000,
which the commission has used anp2lally
in its work, TO the health board.
DR. W. N. Bryant Of Ludlow, the Sec
rotary OF the tuberculosis commission,
says the work OF the commission Is now
well organized and he believes Its FUR
Their advancement can be best carried out
under the auspices OF the state board OF
health. No appointment has been made
to hll the vacancy caused by the death OF
Henry Ballard OF Burlington, and II Is
likely that none will be made as the terms
OF the other members viii expire N
December and they consider their work
practically completed.

killed by dogs, IS run over by trains, %
wounded and killed by order Of commits
sioner and IL found dead from unknown

opinion that several hundred deer are
killed illegally annually. Under the floor
of a deserted shanty in Rutland county 1s
deer skins were discovered and in North
Duxbury ~ skins were taken from a box
partially buried. other similar cases have
| been reported. The deer are killed and
consumed in more or less Isolated com

Work ON Trolley Line to Bennington.

A large gang Of men from New Haven.
Conn, is busy laying the track for the
new trolley road from North Adams.
Mass, into Bennington. Although the
roadbed has not been brought to grade in
several sections along the line the laying
OF the tracks will be continued over all
sections on which the grade is completed.
At one place, not far from the Benning-
ton town line in Pownal the roadway
will be cut to depth OF IS feet through
a hard blue limestone. 1t will be late in
the season before the work will be com
pleted. 1t win also be some time before
other rocky cuts will be completed. The
time limit in the charter for building and
operating the road will expire December

thing may happen to prevent the opera
ton Of the line by that date. will petition
the legislature to extend the time to July

On the top Of Cardigan mountain in
