self" she began, before he could say
word in exculpation.
Il should say every sort of excuse
full thing / could think of, knowing
very well that the most ingenious
lie would fall far short of atoning for
the ofense." he replied humbly.
Possibly it would be better to tell
the truth-had you thought of that"
she suggested, quite without malice.
Yes, l had; and 1 shall, if you'll
let me begin back a bit" He drew up
a chair to face her and sat on the
edge of it. You know 1 told you

lots while Major Guilford's little boom
is ono'
I'm trying to remember: go on. :"
well, l went yesterday morning
and returned late last night. Do you
know, it's positively marvelous!"
"Which--the six lots, the boom,
or the celebrity of your movements"
she asked with a stimulation OF deepest
interest
"All three, if you please; but I
meant the miraculous revival Of things
along the Trans-Western. But that is
neither her nor there
Il think it is very much here and
there" she interrupted.
see you don't want me to tell the
truth-the whole truth; but am de-
termined. The first man l met after
dinner was Hunnicott, and when l
made him my broker in the real es-
tate affair we fell to talking about
the railroad steal. Speaking of Mac
Farlane's continued absence, Hunni-
colt said, jokingly, that it was pity
we couldn't go back to the methods
of few hundred years ago and hire
the Hot Springs doctor to 'obliterate'
him. The word stuck in my mind,
and broke away and took the train
chiefly to have chance to think out
the new line. In the smoking-rOom
of the sleeper l found-whom, do you
suppose?'
ooh, don't know: Judge MacFar-
lane, perhaps, coming back to give you
a chance to poison him at short
range?'

"And he talked so long and so fast
that you couldn't get here in time for
dinner this evening? That would be
the most picturesque of the little fic-
tiCns you spoke Of"
Kent laughed
For the first hour he wouldn't talk
at all; just sat there wooden-faced

worn out all the commonplace began
On the Trans-Western muddle. At that
he woke up all at once, and before l
knew it he was giving me an expert
legal opinion on the case; meaty and
sound and judicial. Miss Van Brock,
that man is lawyer, and an exceed
ingly able one, at that"
''Cf course" she said coolly. "He
was one of the justices of the supreme
court of his own state at AZ: that was

| found that out long time ago"
And you never told me- said Kent,
reproachfully. We'll, no matter;
found out for myself that he is a man
to tie to. After we had canvassed the
purely legal side of the affair. he
wanted to know more, and l went in
for details, telling him all the infer
ences which involve Bucks, Meigs,
Hendricks, MacFarlane and the lot of
them"
Miss. Portals eyes were flashing.
Good, good, good!" she said. "Da-
vid, I'm proud of you. That took cour-
age-heaps of it."
Il did have to forget pretty hard
that he was the acknowledgement
and nominally one of the gang. But if
he is not with US, neither is he against
US. He took it all quietly, and when
was through, he said: You have told
me some things that knew, and some
others that 1 only suspected"
Was that all?" asked Miss Van
Brock, eagerly.
No; l took good long breath and
asked his advice
Did he give it?"
HE did. He said in sober earnest
just what Hunnicott had said i'm "a
joke: If l had your case to fight,
should try to obliterate Judge MacFar-
lane l began 10 say that MacFar-
lanes removal wouldn't help us so long
as Bucks has the appointing of his
successor. and then he turned on me
and hammered it in with a last word
just as We were leaving the train: L
didn't say remove; / said obliterate'

I've been hard at work ever since"
You are obliterating me-" said Miss
Portia- Il haven't the slightest idea
what it is all about

Farlane secured his reelection"

DOWN IN A SUBMARINE.

There's a charm that is hidden,
That none but We know
Down in submarine.
Though loudly the blasts On the surface
may blow,
No ripple is felt in our path here below
Down in a submarine.
The lightning may rend and the hurri-
cane sweep
While quietly down in the depths here We
sleep,
And anon we shall rise and SO silently
peep
At the battleships sailing on proudly.
Then, quick to the turn, We are after our
prey;
Our battles are won in sub-rosa way,
One little torpedo sent out wins the day.
We hear the report, but not loudly
Perchance we are struck
In the fathoms below
Down in a submarine.
Our exit from earth would be quiet, We
know,
Ensconced in our casket, we're ready to
Down in a submarine.
For go we all must, at the one, proper
time.
While you go prosaic. we go sublime.
(You go in prose and we go in rhyme),
And were ready when fate shall enthrall
The mermaids will welcome US all with a
smile,
As we join in the dance of a submarine
style,
And We'll rest in the halls of ocean mean
while,
Till the trumpet of Gabriel shall call u.s.

Englishmen and Art.

It has been said by wicked wi:
that the modern Englishman spells
art with 7 capital II. 1t is certainly
true that he knows little of art except
the commercial value of commodities
under this heading. He buys art treas
ures as speculation or an investment,
and the number Of men and women in
and out Of English society" who are
not amateur dealers, and the quantities
of curiosity shops there are throughout
the country, shows how large is this
traffic-London Graphic.

Yes: but particularly he is the adj

Miss Van Brock nodded.
Yes; the mother of my-of the
young person for whom l am the all

daughters hold some 5000 shares of

Never mind the fractions. The

woman; worthy understudy Of Mrs.
Hetty Green; SO she came to me for
advice. She had a letter from a New
York broker offering her "a fraction
more than the market price for her
1900 shares of Western Pacific"
'Well?" said Kent.
Meaning what did do? I did
what you did not do-what you are
not doing even now; l put two and
two together in the twinkling of .

ern Pacific at a fraction more than
the market when the stock is sinking
every day? l was curious enough to
pass the why along to a friend of
mine in Wall street.

said Kent, incredulously.
He told me what l needed to know.

gould man"

linemen say

leave it for a woman to point out
what you should have suspected the
moment you read that bit of gossip in

Her hand was on the arm of her
chair. He covered it with his own.

are my good angel"
She withdrew the hand quickly, but
there was no more than playful re-
sentiment in her retort.
Shame On you!" she scoffed.
What would Miss Brentwood say?"
Il wish you would leave her out
Of it." he frowned. You are con-
tinually ignoring the fact that she
has promised to be the wife of an.
other man
And has thereby freed you from all
obligations of loyalty? Don't deceive
yourself: women are not made that
way. Doubtless she will go On and
marry the other man in due season;
but she will never forgive you if You

A Russian doctor has spent a great
deal of time finding out what animals
can count, and has found that horses
can count more numbers than any 9TH
er animals. He states that a parrot
can count four, a cat six, crows ten
and some few dogs twenty But he
found horses that could count more
than this. One would plow across a
field 20 times and would then stop and
rest, but it never stopped at 10 or 81;
always just 20.

type in several ways, the most notice
able being the port hole" windows
and the most serviceable being the
new gearing which specially prepares

Consul Richardson, of Jalapa, re-
ports that the greater part of the fur

Mexico with proper effort, especially

BY reason of the efficient work Of
the department of commerce in in
vestigating foreign markets our ex-

The recent work CT special agents in
Mexico has convinced many that our

Latin country that likes our goods and
our business firms as does Mexico A
practice of establishing agencies and
