|AUSSlA''S PREMIER
WHITES SUCCESSOR AS HIAD < OF GOVERNMENT.
N. Goremykin's Career-Long an Enemy of the Deposed Pre- mier-Said to Do .
 Weak Man.

The news in America of the down tall of Witte and his conservative policy for Russia has caused wide spread interest, for the> Russian dip lomat quite won the admiration of the American people by his able and dignifed conduct during the Russian. Japanese. peace negotiations. Witte's overthrow Is accepted in Russia as a victory for the reactionaries, and peo. pie in this country are asking what kind of man is to be his successor.
 M. Goremykin, the new premier, is not only regarded as . reactionary but the general opinion is that he is not equal to the task of facing the coming crisis. His elevation to the premier ship has created amazement. He has long been an untiring enemy of De Witte. He is largely interested in dairy farming, and, in fact, as a milk dealer supplies most of the milk used in St. Petersburg, and has been dubbed ''The Milk Dealer"
 M. Goremykin is considered . mediocre man, and is of insignificant

appearance as well as capacity. He wears side whiskers and looks like an English butler. While for some time he has been called liberal, it was only in contrast with such men as von Plehve and M. Sipiaguine. re- actionary leaders, both of whom were assassinated. He began his career in the ministry of justice. becoming assistant minister. from which post he was called in 1895. b a protege of the dowager empress. to become minister of the interior. The student troubles were just beginning, and Goremykin proved so lacking in en- ergy in suppressing them that he was removed and M. Sipiaguine given his place. Sipiaguine was a victim of his own harsh energy. for he was killed by terrorist bomb.
 While Goremykin was minister of the interior he had made report to the emperor. to the effect that the sto- ries of famine and suffering which were said to exist in certain provinces were untrue, De Witte. who then was minister of finance, thereupon pro duced documents to prove that the conditions in the interior were as bad

CHAPTER xxx.

~ROVE was three days In .Brier Dale after he came out of the
 woods. The Ally was now a sleek and shapely animal, past three years of age. He began at once breaking her to the saddle. and, that done, mounting, he started for Robins lnn. He carried a game rooster in a sack for the boy Tom. All came out with a word of welcome. Even the small dog grew noisy with delight. Funk Hoseiy, who had come 10 work for Mrs. Vaughn, took ebe mare and led her away. his shoulder leaning with en added sense of, ho-seuanship. Pol iy began to hurry dinner. fussing with the table and changing the position of every dish uItfl it seemed as if she would levsr b. quite satisfied Cover cd wteh the sacred old china and table linen Of her grandmother, # hsd. when Polly was done with S. very smart appearance indeed. Then she called the boys and bade them wash their hands and faces and whispered q warn. ing 70 each. while her mother announc- cd that dinner was ready.
 Paul. whats an adjectiveT said the teacher AS they sst down.
 "A word applied to a noun to qualify or limit its meaning" the boy answer ed glibly.
 Right! And what adjective would you apply to this table:"
 The boy thought a moment.
 'Grand,- said he tentatively.
 Correct. I'm going to have just such a dinner every day on my farm"
 Then you'll have to have Polly too" said Tom innocently.
 "well, you can spare her"
 "No. sir the boy answered. "You ain't good to her. She cries every time you 20 away
 There wes an awkward silence and the widow began to laugh and Polly and Trove to blush deeply
 Maybe she whispered. an he give her a taTkin' to-" said Paul
 Have you heard about Ezra Tow err said Mrs. Vaughn. shaking her head at the boys and changing the topic with shreud diplomacy
 Much; but nothing new" said Trove.
 Well. he svears he'll never cross the Fadden bridge or speak to any body in Pleasant valley
 ''whyT'
 The taIes. He don't believe in i'm provements. and when be tried to make q speech in town meeting they all jeer- cd him. There sin't any one good enough for him to speak to now but himself an'-an- his Creator"

f. .f s ..Ht X As Trove rode away he took account of all he owed those good people who had been mother and father to him. What pleasure 1t would give him to lay that goodly sum in the lap of his mother and bid her spend 1t with no thought of economy.
 The mare knew him as ono may know . brother. There was in her manner some subtle understanding of his mood. Her master saw 1t in the boise of her head, tn the shift of her ears and in her tender way of feeling for his hand. She, too, was looking right and left, in the fields. There were the scenes of boyhood newly but for ever gone, That's where you overlook me on the way to school" said he to Phyllis, for so the tinker had named her.
 She drew at the rein, starting play fully as she heard his voice and shak- ing his hand as if to say: "Oh, master, give me the rein. I will bear you swift ly to happiness"
 Trove looked down at her proudly. batting the silken arch of her neck. If, as Darrel had once told him, God took note of the look of ones horses, she was fit for the last Journey. Arriving at Hillsborough, he tied her in the sheds and took his. way to the Sign of the Dial. Darrel was working at his little bench. He turned wearily, his face paler than Trove had ever seen 1t, his eyes deeper under their fringe of silvered hair.
 "An' God be praised, the boyw said he. rising quickly "Canst thou make a jest, boy-a merry jest?' "Not until you have told me what's the matter"
 "IIlness an the food O bitter fancy" said the tinker, with sad face. M
 Bitter fancy?"
 "Yes. an O thee. boy. Had I gath cred care in the broad fields all me life an heaped 1t on thy back could not have done worse by thee.r
 Darrel put his hand upon. the boys shoulder, surveying him from head to foot.
 But, marry" he added, "'tis . mighty thigh an broad back"
 Have you seen my father?"
 Yes"
 There was moment of silence, and Trove began to change color.
 "And what did he sayf' 5s
 "That he will bear his burden alone. !.
 Then for a moment silence and the ticking of the clocks.
 And I shall never know my father2' said Trove presently, his lips trem- bling. God, sir, insist upon 1t! have right to his name and to his shame also.' The young man sank upon chair. covering his face,
 May, Soy, it is not wise," said Oar rel tenderly. Take thought of it. Thou'rt young. The time Is near when thy father can make restitution, aye. an acknowledge bis sin before the world. All very near to him, saving myself, are dead. Now, whatever comes. 1t can do thee no harm"
 "But care not for disgrace, and of ten you have told me that I should live and speak the truth, even though 1t burn me to the bone."
 -.So have I, boy, SO have I. But sup pose 1t burn others to the bone. It will burn thy wife an thy children an thy children's children and them that have reared thee. an it would burn thy father most of all"

the meadow.
 From its highest tier of g summer morning the notes of the bobolink came rushing off his Tyre, and farther down the golden robin sounded his pic colo. But chiefly it was the home and refuge of the familiar red breasted robin The inn had it's ancient GUS, toms. Each young bird, leaving his cradle, climbed his own stairway till he came out upon balcony and got first timid look at field and sky. There he might try his wings and keep in the world he knew by using bill and claw on the lower tiers.
 At dawn the great hall of the maple rang with music, for every lodger paid his score with song. Therein it was ever cool and clean and shady though the sun were hot. It's every nook and cranny was often swept and dusted by the wind. Its branches leading up and outward to the green wall were as in numerable stairways. Each separate home was out on rocking beams, with it's own flicker of skylight overhead For time at dusk there was a contln. ual futter of weary wings at the lower entrance, . good night twitter and a sound of tiny feet climbing the stair ways in that gloomy hail. At last there was a moment of gossip and then silence on every floor.
 There seemed to be a night watch in the lower hall, and if any green young bird were late and noisy going up to his home he got shaking and probably lost few feathers from the nape of his neck. Long before day break those hungry. half clad little peo- pie of the nests began to worry and crowd their mothers At first the old birds tried to quiet them with caress-, ing movements and had at last to hold their places with bill and claw As light came an old cock peered about him. stretched his wings, climbed a stairway and blew his trumpet on the outer wall The robins day had begun. Mid-autumn. when its people shiver- ed and found fault and talked of mov- ing, the maple tried to please them with new and brighter colors gold. with the warmth of summer in it's look; scarlet, suggesting love and the June roses. Soon 1t stood bare and de serted. Then what was there in the creak-and-whisper chorus of the old tree for one listening in the night? Belike it might be many things, ac- eording to the ear. but was it not often something to make one think of that solemn message: Man that h born of woman isrof few days and full of troubleT" They who lived in that small house under the, tree knew little of all that pssSed in the big world. Trumpet blasts of fame, thun- der of rise and downfall, came faintly to them. There the delights of art and luxury were unknown. Yet those sim pie folk were acquainted with pleasure and even with thrilling And impressive incidents. Field and garden teemed with eventful life and hard by was the great city of the woods.

 w ed with white paper lay 5, on the blanket near his hand. He rose and picked it up and saw his own name in a strange hand writing on the wrapper. He turned it, looking curiously at seal and super. scription. Tearing it open. he found to his great surprise a brief note and a roll of money. Herein is gift for Mir. Sidney Trove." said the note. "The gift is from a friend unknown, who prays God that wisdom may go with 1t, so 1t prove blessing to both"
 Tr9ve counted the money carefully There were 5000 in bank bills. He sat . moment thinking; then he rose and began searching for tracks around the shanty. He found none. however, in the dead leaves which he could dis. tinguish from those of Funk and him. self.
 Tt must be from my father" said he--a thought that troubled him deep ly, for 1t seemed to bring i'll news- that his father would never make him. self known.
 He must have seen me last night" Trove went on. He must even have been near me-so near he could have touched me with his shand. If had only wakened.'
 He put the money in his pocket and made ready to go. He would leave at once in quest of Darrel and take coun. sel of him. It was early. and he could see the first light of the sun high in the tall towers of hemlock. The forest rang with bird songs. He went to the brook near by and drank of its clear, cold water and bathed in it. Then he walked slowly to Robins Inn. where Mrs. Vaughn had begun building . fire. She observed the troubled look in his face. but said nothing of 1t then. Trove greeted her and went to the stable to feed his mare.

 "Oh,, I do wish could go," said she presently, with a deep sigh.
 He thought of the $S2 in his pocket and longed to tell her all that he was planning for her sake.
 Mrs. Vaughn went above stairs with the children.
 Then Trove took Polly's hand. They looked deeply into each others eyes a moment, both smiling.
 ''It's your move," said she, smiling as her glance fell.
 He moved all the checkers.
 There came a breath of silence and a great surge of happiness that washed every checker off the board and left the two with flushed, faces. Then, as Mrs. Vaughn was coming downstairs, the checkers began to rattle into posi- ton.
 T won,' said he as the door opened
 But he didn't play fair" said Polly. "Children, I'm afraid you're playing more love than checkers, said the widow You're both too young to think of marriage.'
 Those two looked thoughtfully at the checkerboard, Polly's chin resting on her hand. She had begun to smile.
 "I'm sure Mr. Trove has no such thought in his head" said she, still looking at the board.
 Your mother is right We're both very young,p said Trove. es II believe you're afraid of her." said Polly. looking up at him with smile.
 "I'm only thinking of your welfare said Mrs. Vaughn gently. Young love should be stored away, and If it keeps, why, then it's all right x,
 Like preserves!'' said Polly soberly, as if she were not able to see the point. Against the protest of Polly and her mother Trove went to sleep in the sugar shanty, a quarter of a mile or so back in the woods. On his nrst trip with the drove he had developed fond ness for sleeping out of doors. The shanty was rude structure of logs with an open front. Funk went ahead, bearing a pine torch, while Trove fol lowed, the blanket over his shoulder.
