my family during the thirty years of my
public life II IS easy enough TO disprove
1t. but 1t is humilIating and terrible that
such things should be said of you and
me, my poor. innocent Alicia"
II was the very phrase which Gen
Talbot had so often used in Alicia S
presence, and Il always moved and
touched her, but not as II did now. With
her father. Alicia had ever felt sense
of triumph that she had 5aved him the
knowledge of much that would have
maddened him. but with her husband she
felt strange impulse to confess all. She
was, however not a woman TO act on
such impulses. and she remained silent
turning her head away. She could feel
at hrst the pity In Senator March's
glance. and then by intuition she felt.

emily he said. In a voice so stern that
She scarcely recognized it as his own:
Tell me. is il true? II you will deny
it. I will take your word against that of
the whole world"
II would have been so easy to say
NO, and Alicia could have said il
readily enough 10 any person on earth
except her husband. but something
seemed TO rise within her 10 forbid the
lie, and she remained silent; she either
could not or would not speak. All around
them was the silence OF the woods and
they were themselves so still that a
robin, more daring than his fellows
hoped close by their feet and ehirruped
sweetly 10 his mate After a long pause
Senator March repeated, in the same
voice:
"Wn you not speak? Am ! to be-

He stopped. and Alicia longed 10 speak.
but as before. no words came TO her
She rose, as II to walk toward the
carriage but she swayed so that her
husband took her arm TO support her
Then they went up the hill and. enter
ing the waiting carriage, were driven
toward the city. Not word was spoken
during the homeward drive When they
reached the asphalted streets. Senator
March directed the coschman 10 drive 20
the smart hotel where C0legrove had a
splendid suite ef rooms AHcia's trem-
bling heart sank lower; she thought It a
fearful bunder that Senator Marcb's
carriage should be seen al Colegrove's s
hotel, but Senator March had never in
ne 4'tC N''iCSe'cu di44 thlhs, ana ne was
too stunned 10 adopt any Of the small
precautions Of fear. When they reached
the hotel he alighted and said. with
somewhat Of his uusal composure. 10
the f00tman:

then, lifting his hat to Alicia. he walked
into the hotel
Entering the lift, Senator March went
straight to Colegrove's apartments. He
opened the door without knocking. and
turned into the study OF the suite. and
there found Colegrove sitting at a large
table. covered with books and papers.
with couple Of the greatest railway
lawyers IN America sitting with him.
Senator March bowed politely, and then.
without sitting down, said ooldly 10 Cole
grove:

Il must be allowed to interrupt these
gentlemen for a few minutes while l
speak with you alone
All three men had risen as Senator
March entered: he was too important
man to be received with other than the
highest respect, nor did Colegrove make
the slightest objection TO leading the way
into the next room. The light OF battle
was in his eye, and 1t was plain that he
was prepared 10 fight After closing the
door, he said at once to Senator March:
You have, Of course. seen the story in
the afternoon newspapers7 Much of 1t,
Of course, is a batch OF lies, a part of It
we have no reason to conceal and the
rest can be explained There is no occa-
sion for anybody to fall into panic.
Il didn't come here to discuss that with
YOU. replied Senator March, looking FIX
cdly at COlegrove.
You wish 10 know about your wife's
transactions with me?" calmly asked
Colegrove, carrying the war iLto Africa,
according 70 his invariable custom.
Senator March remained silent; he could
not bring himself to put into words what
he had come 70 ask COlegrove went
back into the next room, and, returning
In a minute, brought a tin box. which he
opened. Out Of il he took every copy,
every paper and letter which he had re-
ceived from Alicia March. and every note
in which she acknowledged receiving
money from him Then from a little book
he read the statement OF every dollar he
had ever paid Alicia March. Senator
March. sitting at the table with Cole
grove, read every piece Of writing In the
tin box. then, gathering them Up in his
hands. he put them carefully in his breast

Tomorrow" said Senator March with
out a tremOr. when the Senate is con-
vened. i shall acknowledge every charge
against me. / shall also claim that every
penny which went out OF your pocket to
my wife was paid 10 me. and I shall then
resign my seat in the Senate, telegraph
ing the governor Of the state tonight"
You are "a madman!' cried Coiegroye.
1T is the sanest act Of my life" an
swcred Senator March.
There is but one thing to do" per-
sisted Colegrove, "and that is TO deny
everything and call for proof"
Senator March smiled slightly

ferent standards. l see in your eye that
YOU mean 20 attack me in order 10 get
these letters and documents. Well. ii
would be OF no use. because my confes-
sion and resignation will not call for
proof"
Colegroye, for once staggered and at a
loss, allowed Senator March 10 open the
door into the next room where the two
lawyers stood talking in low voices. The
moment for using force was lost. and,
besides, Senator March's promise Of con-
fession and resignation put so new a
phase on the case that Colegrove was

Madison, April Sin the assembly
the Weber bill authorizing the estab-

by cities was laid over Senate bills
granting the use of the Wisconsin
military reservation near Camp Doug
las to the United States and for the
appointment of brevet second lieuten-
ants in the national guard from the
university regimental officers were
concurred in. Six bills were killed,
among them two socialistic measures
introduced by Mr.. Alldridge, aimed to
protect union men in their efforts to
prevent men from taking the places
of strikers or discharged workmen,
and to protect unions from liability for
injuring business and property.
/ Madison. April 9.-In the senate
the Lockney bill, relating to the man
ner of choosing city officers, was
killed Three bills were ordered to

to fix the boundaries of certain towns,
and the Burke bill relating to town
boards
Governor Davidson's first veto, that
on the Elkhorn cemetery bill, was re-
iected by the assembly by unanimous
vote 81 to 0. Mr.. Sprague, the
author Of the bill, delivered a half
hours speech in favor of passing the
Gill over the veto, and no remarks
we're wade against the proposition.
The governors theory was that it was
a measure concerning special rights
on city. The measure is of little
importance except local. Engross-
ment was secured of the residence

than could be secured two years ago

larry for further consideration and

The bin was introduced by Senator
Fairchild of Milwaukee, to cover such
situations as arose In the graft cases
In Milwaukee where defendants under
Indictment for crimes were discharg
ed without trial by decisions on tech
nical points. The district attorney
sought by mandamus to secure re-
