turned away, and was soon hidden
by the branching trees. Lady Bayne-
ham looked after her in some sur
prise.

she said to herself; there is a whole
story written in it"

I'VE must do something in return
for all these invitations, Hilda," said
Lord Bayneham. 1T is more than
three months now since we returned,
and although we have had what one
may ca; parties every day, it is time
we did more. WHAT do you pro

Suppose we wait until then, and
give ball that all the county will

week. What do you saw?'
1t will be best, she replied, more
sedately; for though longing to see
Barbara, and enjoy ball, Hilda
looked forward with more awe than
delight to the visit of her stately
mother-in-law.
Hilda had almost forgotten the little
incident that happened in the sum
mer. Once or twice she thought,
with wonder and admiration, of that
beautiful, sad face. so worn and pale.
and then in her heart felt thankful
that those mysterious trials and
troubles which wreck other lives had
not Swallowed hers.
There was but one thing wanting to
make her perfectly happy-that was
the love of Lady Bayneham. If
Glands mother would give her but
one-half the warm affection she Law
ished upon her son or Barbara Earle.
| Hilda would be quite content.
Time passed so happily that the
days seemed one bright, long dream.
Christmas was drawing near, and
great were the preparations for the
coming festivities. The Oulston
Gazette informed the public that
Christmas would bring a party of
iIlustrious guests to the Castle, and
went on ir a state of wild rapture to
describe the gaities expected. A

in the political state of England had

usual garb; there was no snow or
frost when Christmas came, but, CON
trary to all natural laws, the weather
was even warm and mild. There
was an attempt at rain, a feeble
CLEAN of sunshine. but none of what
English people call reasonable cold"
| Notwithstanding The absence OF
snow and frost, there was no lack OF
holly and mistletos in the Castle.
It was many long years since Christ
mas had been kept in such royal state
at Bayneham nor was there any lack
of gaiety among the guests assembled
there.

SNAKE BLAMED FOR CRASH.

/ II drops AT woman Auto Drivers

In big automobile OF foreign
manufacture f. G. Burton of Boston;
Ralph f. Comstock of New York;
George Dillingham; of Newark; Miss
Comstock of Springfield, Mass, and
Miss Gould of Philadelphia were rid
ing from Plantsville to Waterbury
recently, says the Waterbury Conn.,
correspondent of the New York Her
aid. Miss Comstock was driving the
car and Miss Gould was sitting beside
her. The machine was moving at
about ten miles an hour and the pas
sengers were talking gayly
Suddenly Miss Comstock gave a
piercing chriek, 'shrank away from
the dashboard and tainted. No one
knew what had happened to her, but
there's was more serious need than
finding out. This was the approach
of Frank Scoville, a farmer, driving
horse and wagon, the latter filled
with cans of milk.
Miss Gould grasped the steering
wheel of the automobile and averted
a direct collision with the milk
wagon, but smashed it with a side
blow and swung it across the road,
the automobile driving into stone
fence so hard that it was put out of
commission.
Miss Comstock remained insensible
and her companions, who had been
severely Jared when the automobile
dashed into the fence, gave all their
attention to her. She was put into
another vehicle and taken to the near
est house, half mile away, where
she remained unconscious or hysteri-
cal for several hours.
Meanwhile the mystery of her fright
was still unexplained Scoyile had
suffered severely when the automo-
bile struck his wagon. reducing it to
lumber and scrap iron bis horse
was so frightened that it stood amid
the wreckage and would not bulge
until lured into milder ten Der by the
offer of corn. Scoyille received $50
from the automobiles to make
amends for the damages he had suf-
fered, and agreed also to say nothing
iof the collision.
While Miss Comstock was being
attended by Miss Gould and the
women of the farmhouse the men of
the party took the three state auto
mobile license numbers of Massa-
.chusetts New Jersey and Connect
cut off the machine and put them in
a suitcase.
When mechanics who had been sent
to repair the automobile drove it up
to the farmhouse they exhibited an
ordinary bleck snake which they had
found on the floor of the car. II had
been stamped to death apparently by
Miss Gould and the others who were
aiding Miss Comstock.
That the snake had fallen from a
tree or had been tossed up by the
wheel on Miss Comstock and caused
her to faint was understood at once,
and this she later confirmed. Miss
Gould almost tainted when she
learned that she had been tramping
around on the snake
Identification of the members of the
party came through a hotelkeeper,
who recognized them as his patrons
of last week, and pointed out the
hotel register in which their names
had been written.
