scorn adequately MT. Higbee came per- ilously near to snorting. What do you suppose 2 girl like that cares for love-? She was dead in love with the nice long yellow-backs that I've piled up because the public knows good ham when they taste it. As for being in love with Henry or with any man say. young fellow, you've got some thing to learn about those New York girls. And this one, especially Why. it's been known for the three years we've been there that she's simply hunting night and day for rich hus- band. She tries for 'em all as fast as they get in line"
 Henry was unlucky in finding that kind. They're not all like that--those New York girls are not" and he had the air of being able if he chose to name one or two luminous exceptions
 "silas." called Mrs. Higbee, "are you telling MT. Zines about our Henry and that Milbrey girl?"
 Yep answered Higbee, T told him.
 About what girl?-what was her name?' asked Perciyal in a lower tone.
 "Milbrey's that family's name-Hor- ace Milbrey-"
 Why Percival interrupted. some what awkwardly. T know the family -the young lady-we met the family out in Montana few weeks ago."
 Sure enough-they were in Chicago and had dinner with us on their way out"
 T remember MT. Milbrey spoke of what fine claret you gave him."
 "Yes. and wasn't stingy with ice either. the way those New York people always are. Why. at that fellows house he gives you that claret wine as warm as soup.
 But as for that girl" he added say. she'd marry me in a minute if l wasn't tied up with the little lady over there. Of course she'd rather marry a sub-treasury; she's got about that much heart in her-cold- -blooded as German carp. She'd marry me- she'd marry you. if you was the best thing in sight But say. if you was broke. she'd have about as much use for you as Chicago's got for St. Louis.'

AERO CLUB ASCENT Charles Levee Makes Balloon Call on Farmer De Witt. WEST POINT VISITOR LANDS IN DARK Aeronaut. Fearing snowstorm. De- seconded From Aioft In Open
 Field at Hurley. Near
 

WEST POINT. x. r., Feb. 13.-A dispatch from Kingston, x. Y.. says that Charles Levee. the aeronaut who ascended in balloon from here under the auspices of the Aero Club of Amer ica, descended at o'clock at night on the farm of Matthew Ten Eyck De Witt al Hurley, five miles from there. Levee said he was afraid to stay up in the dark clouds that seemed to him to threaten a snowstorm.
 Mir. De Witt and his family helped Mir. Levee 10 pack up his balloon and made him comfortable for the night.
 The balloon landed gently in the open field 200 yards back of the farm house. It was not damaged A particle.
 The Frenchman made his way 10 the rear door of the house and knocked for admission. It was the first intimation that Mir. De Witt and his family had that Levee was anywhere in the yicin- fly.
 He seemed somewhat excited" Mir. De Witt said. but he was much cooler d der the circumstances. He said his trip had been pleasant and easy one and that the balloon had acted perfect ly.
 He could have stayed aloft three or four hours longer. hut ii was getting so dark and there WAS such storm brewing that he was obliged tp throw his ballast overheard and afterwarl descended. He was very enthusiastic about West Point as a starting point. The conditions there were ideal. he de clsred. for q balloon ascension. He told me that he intended tb try another airship cruise in few weeks.
 Just before making landing his anchor caught in some of the treetops and he was obliged to cut il loose"
 More than I.OuO persons. including members of the Acre club. officers and cadets of the United States West Point Military academy and about fifty la dies. saw the balIo.n go up st West Point Among the Aero club members were Augustus T. Post. Psul Mor- quet. pr. Julien P Thomas. ]. C. Me Coy. John r. O'Rourke. Carl Dienst- bach and Count George dc Portanier ie Ia Rochettp. Among others present were Leo Stevens. the aeronsut. who wanted to % tIp with Levee. but could not because the gas pressure was not sufficient for two men. and A.

A CASE or rHuMps.
Tarfmen Deny Truth of Foul Play #h6 With Lon Dillon.

CLEVELAND. O., Feb. 13.-The story from New York involving F.. K. Smath- CTS in scandal built around his pos session of the 5000 gold trotting cup won with Major Delmar from Lou Dillon at Memphis in 1904. wherein the mare is alleged to have been "doped." is denied by Cleveland horse men. Private telegrams from Mir. Smatlers in New York and Willard Sanders in Pleasanton, Cal, deny the charge The telegrams follow:
 Smathers-In filing my answer I denied the charge as being absolutely false. You of all men should guess who is back of the whole matter.
 Sanders Story absolutely false. I have aever made affidavit of any kind regarding Lou Dillon's race with Major Delmar at Memphis or any other place.
 H. K. Devereux of Cleveland. one of the most prominent amateur reinsmen ill the country, witnessed the race for the cup.
 Just as the horses turned to score for the first heat" said Devereux. T heard Willard Sanders, who was train- ing Lou Diikn, say to Billings that the trotting queen was in perfect condi- ton. But she had covered scarcely a quarter of q mile before it was seen that something was wrong with her. She could not keep up her gait. and a q n.N~ f0 one at the rate she was going.
 ''The heat was finished in very slow time, and in the second heat it was plain that the mare was in no condition for d race. An examination by q veterinary disclosed the fact that her stomach was ill bad shape. No definite statement concerning her ill., ness was made. It was called case of the thumps."
