A gloom was cast over society this
week by the death of two of the
most popular matrons in the city. In
the death OF Mrs. Anna Lee Parham
and Mrs. Henry Bradley two of the
noblest women Of the city are lost.
Many Of the parties and dances for
the week were postponed.
Fourth of July came this week but
the older folk were willing to sit by
and see the younger Americans keep
tie day with crackers and noises.
Still many had quiet day in the
country, where dinner was served
and good rest taken.
Thoughts that the summer Is rap
idly departing and with theehottest
part on hand society turns to the
summer resort and country and a
rest from the strenuous life. So next
week we may look forward to chiefly

CHAPTER XIII.

Madame Midas had experienced pow
erty and the coldness of friends, so was
completely disillusionized as to the disin-
erested motives of the people who now
came focking around her. She was very
wealthy and determined to stop in Mel
bourne for year, and then go home to
Europe, so to this end she took house
at st. Kilda.
Vandeloup called on Madame Midas the
day after she arrived, and Mrs. Villiers
was delighted to see him. Having an OBJ
ject in view, of course CASTOR made him
self as charming as possible, and assisted
Madame to arrange her house, told her
about the people who called on her, and
made cynical remarks about them, all of
which amused Madame Midas nightly.
She grew weary # the inane gable and
narrow understandings of people, and it
was quite relief for her to turn to Van
deloup, with a keen tongue and clever
brains.
Vandeloup had prospered in his little
venture in the mining market for the
Magpie Reef shares ran up rapidly. A
telegram was published from the manager
stating q rich reef had been struck. Speci-
meuS OI the very rlCneSC KIM were QlS-
played in Melbourne, AMI the con6ding
public suddenly woke to the fact that
golden tide was flowing past their DOORS
They rushed the share market, and in two
weeks the Magpie Reef shares ran from
-FOUR shillings to as many pounds. Vande-
loup intended to sell at one pound, but
when he saw the rapid rise and heard
every one talking about this reef, he held
his shares till they touched four pounds,
then, quite satisfied with his profit, he
sold out at once and pocketed nearly ten
thousand pounds, so that he was provided
for the rest of his life.
Kitty meanwhile had become a great
favorite with the Wopples family, and
they made a wonderful pet Of her. OF
course, being in Rome, she did as the Ro-
mans did, and went on the stage as Miss
Kathleen Wopples, being endowed with
the family name for dramatic reasons.
The family were now on tour among the
small towns of Victoria, and ssemed to
be we'll knewn, as each member got a re-
ception when he or she appeared on the
stage.

glaze.
This particular mine, l suppose you
mean" said CASTOR, with yawn, very
likely it is. However, am willing to
take the risk. Good day! See you at
four" and with a careless nod NJ. Vande-
loup lounged out of the Office.
He walked along Collins street, met
few frieads. and kept lookout for Kitty.
He, however, did not see her, but there
was a surprise in store for him, for turn
ing round into Swanston street he came
across Archie Mcintosh. Yes. there he
was, with his grim, severe Scotch face,
with the white frill round 1t, and CASTOR
smiled rs he saw the old man, dressed
rigid broadcloth.
"Ah, laddie," said Mcintosh, irritably.
"Have ye seen anything O. the girl that
rim awayT
"Oh, Miss Marchurst {" said Vande-
loup, smoothly, ready with lie at once.
mo, I'm sorry to say I've never set eyes
on her."
1.-THE mistress is just crazy about her."
observed Mcintosh, querulously; "and
she's looking all through the town to find
the poor wee thing"
81 hope she WILL" said Vandeloup, who
devoutly hoped she wouldn't.
Vandeloup took Mcintosh to the club
and introduced him all round as the man
ager Of the famous Pactolus. All the
young men were wonderfully taken up
with Archie and his plain speaking. Fi-
nally he left Vandeloup to 60 down to
Madame Midas at st. Kilda, and bearing
a message from the Frenchman that he
would call there the next day.
Archie having departed, Vandeloup got
through the rest of the day as best he
could. He met Mr.. Wopples in the street,
who told him how he had found Kitty,
quite unaware that the young man before
him was the husband who had deserted
her. Vandeloup was delighted to think
that Kitty had not mentioned his name,
and quite approved of Mr.. Wopples' in
tention to take the girl on tour. Having
thus arranged for Kitty's future, CASTOR
went along to his broker, and found the
astute Polglaze had got him his shares.
Going up" said Polglaze, as he hand
ed the scrip to Vandeloup and got check
IN exchange.
"Oh, indeed" said Vandeloup, with a
smile. II suppose my two friends have
begun their little game already" he
thought, as he slipped the scrip into his
breast pocket.
"Information?" asked Polglaze, as Van
deloup was going.
"Oh! you'd like to know where got
IT," said NJ. Vandeloup, amiably. Every
sorry Il can't tell you; but you see my
dear sir, am not woman, and can keep
a secret" "a
Yandeloup walked out, and Polglazs
looked after him with a puzzled look,
then summed up his opinion in one word,
sharp, incisive, and to the point.
Clever" said Polglaze, and put the
check in his safe.
.'Bcbe Is out Of my way" thought Van
deloup with a smile II have a small for
tune in my pocket, and" he continued,
thoughtfully, Madame Midas Is In Mel
bourne. think now," said NJ. Vande-
loup, with another smile, that I have
conquered the blind goddess"

CHAPTER XZu

When Kitty left Mrs. Pulchop's resi-
dence she had no very definite idea as to
what she was going to do with herself.
Her sole thought was to get as far away
from her former life as possible-to dis
appear In the crowd and never to be heard
OF again. Poor little soul, she never for
msment dreamed that 1t was a case of
out Of the frying pan into the fire, and
that the world at large might prove more
cruel to her than Vandeloup.
She went into town and wandered about

CORRUPT OFFICIALS.
The Arrogance and Turpitude of Mir.
 Harriman's Reported Boast.

The Arrogance and Turpitude of Mir.
 Harriman's Reported Boast.
 In the Presidents letter to Congress- man Sherman, at the beginning of the controversy with the railroad mag nate, MT Sherman is quoted as having told the President that Mir. Hartman said he was indifferent to the success of "Hearstism and the like" because these people were crooks, and he could buy them. It is also alleged that Har- riman told Sherman that he could buy legisla ators, executives and the courts when he needed them.
 It is perhaps remarkable that MT. Hartman should have expressed such ideas, but 1t is not strange that he should have entertained them. There is unfortunately a widespread opinion that the rapacious wealth MT. Harri- son represents generally entertalns these ideas and that hey are not en- tirely groundless, though the magnate may have expressed them rather too broadly This part of the correspon- dence contains charges of the most se- rious nature against the railroader, and charges which he has not yet met ade- quately. Whether the allegations of Mr. sherman be true or not, they are calculated to do infinite harm, the more so because some color of truth is given them by well-known occurrences which have frequently well nigh appalled, those who have a patriotic desire for the continued welfare of the govern M 1t- expression to such opinion the matter should be driven home, and if he did not he should establish the contrary.
 There is a lamentable lack of oonh- dence throughout this country in pub lie officials and their integrity, and persons making such statements should be required to establish their truth. The. general belief is that this condition of affairs has resulted from the cor rupt practices of railroads in their dealings with legislatures, the congress and even with the courts, and it is in tolerable that a railroad magnate should boast of such condition of af- fairs
 The arrogance of the statement at tributed to MT. Hartman is quite as disagreeable as it's turpitude. This ar rogance must receive a check sooner or later, and the sooner it is applied the better it will be for the welfare of the community.-New Orleans Times-Dem- ocrat.
