COMPARATIVE STATEMENTS.
Judge Lppmann Produces Auditors Statement to Show That Governor Has Misrepresented States
 Financial Condition.
To the INDEPENDENT:

of funds remaining m the State Treasury Jan. l, 1901, and Jan. l, 1906. The writer thinks these statements are opportune in view of the fact that Gov. Davis asserts on page 5 in his printed speech that when he became governor the state was S64, 900 in debt, and that HOW the state is entirely free from debt, an accomplishment of his ad- ministration.
 If this were true, the governor would be justified in asserting his pride, for putting the state in such an enviable condition financially. Unfortunately for the people, and the Governor too, it is not true statement of the actual financial condition of the state as it exists today.
 The Governor in his speech does not say anything about the condition of the treasury when he was inducted into office Jan., 1901, though his speech, taken as presented, would create the belief, that the state treasury was empty, when he went into office, and that the state owed $64, OO0.O0, all of which he has paid, and besides paying current expenses of state government and spending vast sums for per- manent improvement of the state institutions he says we have $3, ,855, 100000 in cash and con- vertible securities in the state treasury.
 A careful review of the two statements presented will con- vince any fair-minded man that the Governors assertions are without warrant, and grossly erroneous.
 A patent error is shown in the sum claimed to be in the treas ury by the Governor, the $3,- 855, 100000, and that given in the certified statement of the Auditor of State, which shows that on Jan. 1, 1906, the treasury con- tained 2,845, ,532.22. This shows a smaller sum than that claimed to be in the treasury by the Governor of more than 1,000,- 0OO.0 .0O.
 Notice should be taken of the different items that are con- tained in the two statements. All do not represent leash and convertible securities. Itshould not be difficult to note that only the currency can be assets and all the other items are liabilities against the state.
 The funding bonds and cou- pons attached belong to the per- manent school fund, for which a tax levy is made each year to pay the 3 per cent. interest that the bonds draw. This interest is added to the common school fund each year and distributed to the different districts.
 The county and city scrip be- longs to certain counties and cities, and on settlement day will be turned over to the proper counties and cities, the state not realizing a cent from the trans fer. The Governor Jones notes will not bring the state a cent, as they only represent money taken from one state fund to put into another for the purpose of paying a debt of the state
 The small difference in amount in the treasury Jan. l, 1901, and Jan. 1, 1906, $354, 16O. 80, prompts the query what has become of the vast eyrs that the Governor says have l. en collected during his term of office?

The WOman's Club.

One of the most delightful meetings the Woman's Club has had this season was held Friday afternoon, with Mrs. L. E. Willis hostess.
 The afternoon was devoted to the study of "The Lake School of Poets," with one exception, which was an excellent portrayal of Byron by Mrs. o. D. Watson.
 The papers of Mrs. L. E. Willis on "The Lake School of Poets. "
 Mrs. E. L. Boyce on "Chrys- tabel and the Ancient Mariner, " and Miss Dove Erwin on Wards worth's Love of Nature, drew special mention for their unusual degree of excellence. It was evident that each person on duty had fully mastered her subject, for the papers were presented in a most pleasing and impressive manner.
 The result of their efforts was a program which was thoroughly enjoyed and we went away feel ing that we had received an exceeding great reward. ''
 The next meeting will be held with Miss Dove Erwin, March 23, at which time the election of officers will be held and work for the coming year discussed.

asked Violet.
Let me see MISS he went away on the fourth

The clerk was puzzled. IF you mean that he

Violet did not show the man the letter which she
had in her pocket. Perhaps it was best that Dibbin
himself should read it first But she did say: He

instructions to-day for Mr. Di5bin to go at to

Not all the resources Of pert cockneyism awaited
that hapless domestic when she set eyes on Miss
Mordaunt She uttered helpless little wall of
dismay and retreated few steps, though she
half expected the wonder-strcken young woman
to use strong measures with her.

No. said Violet, advancing toward the voice;
but your maid seems to be alarmed by the sight
of You know me, Miss L Estrange. l only
wish l had discovered sooner that you employed
my sisters servant Sarah Gissing."
Ermyn was accustomed to stage situations. She
instantly grasped her part; for she fresh from
the interview with David, and there could be no
doubt that the unmasking of Hupfeldt
settled now as the third act of the farcical comedy
in which she would play the soubrette that night.

incoming train, had seen her, and
was pressing in close pursuit when
he tripped over luggage barrow
and fell headlong.
He was not much injured, but
shaken more than a little, and
when he was able to take up the
chase again, Violet had van
ished. Hence she was freed from
espionage, and van Hupfeldt
could only curse his useless en-
issary. The man Mel certainly
did rush about like whirlwind as
soon as he recovered his breath;
but Violet was in the post-office
writing to David, and securely
hidden from his ferret eyes.
Oddly enough, the first per-
son she wished to see was Miss
Ermyn L'Estrange. She remem-
bered the actress well, as she
had visited her once Oenny,
the maid, was out on an err
rand at the time) and it was
one of the many curious dlscrep-
ancies in the tissue of mingled
fact and fiction which obscured
her sisters fate that such Vola-
tile and talkative woman should
have written the curt little note
sent at Hupfeldt's bidding. Vio-
let could not understand the rea-
son, but she saw a loophole here.
The long journey in the train had
enabled her to review the infor-
nation she possessed with GER
tain clarity and precision hitherto
absent from her much bewildered
thoughts. In a word, there were
several marked lines of inquiry,
and she was resolved to follow
each separately.
She felt that she had gone the
wrong way to work in the first
frenzy of her grief. She was calm
now, more skilled in hiding her
suspicious, less prone to jump at
conclusions. Ali unknown to her,
the little germ of passion planted
in her heart by David's few words
in the summer house was govern
ing her whole being. From the
timid, irresolute girl, who chung
to unattainable ideals, she was
transformed into a woman, ready
to dare anything for the sake of
the man she loved, while the mere
notion of marriage with van Hup-
feldt was so loathsome that she
was spurred into the physical
need of strenuous action to coun-
teract it.
Soft was in a restrained yet bust
ness like mood that she climbed
the stairs leading to Miss LES
FRANCES fiat and rang the bell.
The door was opened by Jenny.

z" 7HEN the train from Rigsworth
~ brought Violet into Euston Station
~ she hurried through the barrier and

nearest post office. At this instant
a slight accident happened which had singular

if the need arises?"
Indeed you mayl" was the
impulsive reply. Il have wept
over your sisters unhappy fate,
Miss Mordaunt, and / ALWAYS
thought Strauss was a villain. |
hope that nice young fellow, Da-
vid Harcourt, who has been on his
track for months, will catch him
one of these days, and give him a
hiding, at the very least"
"Oh, you know Mr.. Harcourt?"
And then Ermyn L'Estrange
did thing which ennobled her
in her own eyes for many a day.
Yes" she said. He found out
that l occupied your sisters fiat
after her death; SO he came to see
me, and, if l may venture to say
SO, he betrayed an interest in YOU,
Miss Mordaunt, which, had such
a man shown it towards me,
would have been deemed a very
pleasing and charming testimony
of his regard"
1t was only line out of an old
play; but it served, and they
kissed each other when they said
good by.
Although Violet was startled at
alighting on such ready confirma-
ton of van Hupfeldt's duplicity,
there was a remarkable bright
ness in her eye, a spring-time
elasticity in her step, when she
emerged into the High-st. of
Chelsea which had not beer visi-
BILE a little while earlier. In
truth, she felt as thrush may be
supposed to feel after having sue
cessfully lodged the attack of a
hawk. Were it not that she was
treading the crowded streets of
London she would have sung for
sheer joy.
And now, feeling hungry, after
her long journey, she entered a
restaurant and ate a good meal,
which was a sensible thing to do
in itself, but which, in its way,
was another tiny factor in the
undoing of van Hupfeldt, as,
thereby, she missed meeting Da-
vid at Dibbin's office.
When she did ultimately reach
that unconscious rendezvous, she
found there the clerk who had
given David such interesting in
formation. This man knew Miss
Mordaunt, and had some recollec-
ton of the dead Gwendoline; so
he was civil, and assured Violet
that his master would return
