Thornton sat in a large, comfortable
sasy chair in his brother-in-law' we'll
furnished library, with moody express
zion upon his handsome face. He was an
attractive and popular young man, with
an income OF several thousand 4 year,
but in spite of these pleasant facts, life
10 him was not entirely bed OF roses.
TO tell the truth, it was at present very
much like 10 bed es thorns. Hence the
moody eXptesiion.
Cupid was to blame for the trouble, of
course. When handsome young fellow
with several thousand q year sits around
looking moody, Cupid is usually TO blame.
A singing arrow coming from the direc-
ton of certain fiat on Grace Street
had made painful wound in this young
mans heart-a wound that ached and
burned and would not heal. He had tried
all manner of cures. but each, in its turn.
had failed-nniserably There was abso-
lutely no cure for this wound except the
touch of a pair of soft lips and q certain
expression In q pair of hazel eyes. and
this one and only cure was not to be
obtained.
II might have been obtained if it had
not been far his objectionable jealousy
If lie had not spoken 50 hastily that
evening when he went in unexpectedly
and found Wickham sitting close very
close, beside her on the red sofa, and
looking up into her face with that ex-
preston of alteration in his eyes. If
Thornton had only held his tongue-later.
But, confound ii, how the deuce could a
fellow stand some things and hold his
tongue. Not easily. unless he happened
TO be deaf, dumb and blind. and Thornton
perhaps unfortunately. possessed none
of these affections.
In his desperation he almost wished he
had been struck suddenly with all three
just before he entered the fiat on Grace
Street that terrible evening. He heaved
great sigh and clenched his teeth.
There came n wild CHATTER on the stair
and the library door was thrown oper
to admit the pride and joy of the house.

IMMIGRATION COMMISSIONERS

GER HELP TO PAY THE FINE.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 21.-
Collector of the Port Frederick STRAIT
ton yesterday imposed a fine of $1,000
on the Nippon Maru, which brought
five passengers from Honolulu, it being
contrary to the law for a boat of for

money for the privilege of arriving

had waited for the Sonoma.
Among the passengers brought on
the Nippon Maru was Frank b. Sar-

is said, however, that his payment will

Notwithstanding the stormy weather
yesterday the Bartenders League held
its picnic at the Walla Walla County
fair grounds. There was a good at
tendance. Dancing was the principal
amusement of the day and evening.
The rain prevented the sporting pro-

though the people were given a little
excitement when Doc Brunnell and
Miss Elan went half mile heat in the

in beating the. big horse. The time of

ing a franchise tax on railroad proper
tv in that state, was decided by the
s,,nreme court today favorably to the
state. the opinion being delivered by
Justice Holmes. The case covered the
taxes for the years 1900, 1901, 1902,
1903 and 1904, and the amount involv-
ed was $SS9,375.
The law provides for a tax on the
franchises of railroads on the capital
stock at the rate of ~ mills on the
dollar in proportion to the equipment
used in the state of New York The
fax authorities levied the tax on all
the rolling stock of the company on the
theory that none of it is continuously
empIoyed outside the state. The rail-
road people. on the other hand, con-
tended than on an average not to ex-
coed two-thirds of the rolling stock
is engaged within the borders of the
state. The decision turned upon the
question of the permanent status OF
the cars, and this court held to be
in New York regardless of their alb

Secures Rights Of Way from Farmers
for the Projected North Coast
Railway.

CONNELL. June 4.-Representatives
of r. E. Strahorn head promoter for
the North Coast road, have been in
Council and vicinity for the past few
days securing rights of way from sew
eral of the farmers through whose
domains the corrected lines of the old
S. c. r. r. R.; now the property Of
the North Coast, have been made.
Upon taking over this grade, Mr.. Stra-
horn found that several miles of it
east and north of Cornell would have
to be changed on account of high
grades to make it meet the require
ments of the company as to grades.
Upon going over the road and care
fully inspecting it's grades, it has been
found by Mr.. StrahOrn that in some
places it has a two per cent grade,
a grade that exceeds the highest per
cent permitted by the company, hence
the change in part of the present
roadbed.

lessee and manager of the Hotel Col
fax. publicly thrashing H. w. Living
stone. owner of the hotel building. The
fight took place on Main street. Ma
loney knocked Livingstone down sever
al times. blackening his eyes and cut
ting his face severely. Sheriff Canuts
separated them.
Livingstone is a pioneer and is said
to be the wealthiest resident of Colfax.
The quarrel which ended in the fight
is said to have started over Living
stones refusal to pay more than $40
on the cost of recalcimining the build
ing. which was recently damaged by
fire. although he had collected $3.50 in
surance for damage to calcimine. Liv-
ingstone's face and eyes are discolored
as a result of the thrashing he re-
ceived.
