NHE garden was the ordinary
one, but with top heavy atltli-
lions beyond and behind its
neighbor OH either side. And
the arbor was, SO to speak, in the bot
ties neck. There was no getting to
the meadow without passing within a
yard or two of its rustic portal.
There was, however. a shallow shrub
berry down either wall of the original
garden, and when Daintree had been
alone about a minute the laurels OH his
left began a risky rustic IN the. still
evening air. Luckily he was already
in too deep contemplation of his last
and dngriest wound to hear aught but
the girls voice and his own still ring
Ing through the arbor. But as for
Claire, one moment she held her
breath in horrid certainty that lie had
heard; in another she was satisfied
that he had not and had forgotten his
existence the next. Indeed, by the
time she looked upon the meadow,
asleep beneath its soft gray covcrlet Of
dew, the wide world contained but one
live man, and he was at the gate upon
the farther side.
Yet was he? Around the meadow
ran gravel path, upon which she
thought her feet battered loud enough
for NIL the world to hear. Then she
dropped the key in reaching it from its
accustomed crevicc. and 1t rang upon
the gravel, and in her nervousness she
was m age fumbling mt the lock. Yet
no sound of hers brought word Of
greeting from the other side. He had
not come! AS she pulled the cato
open she felt certain of It; and then
beheld and heard him, advancing
shyly through the sibilant grass, with
some white thing in his hand and
young moon just risen over Primrose
hill.
'Tom," she cried softly, "you are

A great chill struck to the girls loyal

her awake, now doubt no more. ueP

Villains address! Oh. Claire, he Is not

Claire answered with deliberate res
eryations. Her duty was clear as the
stars. Tom and Blaydes must be kept
apart-that night at all events. Then
many things must be done, but quietly
and with due forethought Above all,
no fresh fuel must be added to the vim
dlctlve fires now smoldering in her
lovers speaking eyes. So Claire decid-
ed to keep to herself her own opinion
of Captain Blaydes.
She had noticed without comment
tho heavy stick lying in tho grass,
She turned faint at the thought of her
fiery Tom encountering the captain so
armed md SO aggrleved, but she In
sisted on his telling her of his wrong.
Tom promised not to seek an inter
view with Blaydes for two clear days
and not to harm him then, and. on this
understanding Claire at last confessed
that the captain had taken rooms for
the summer In the village of West

CHICAGO, Aug. 30.-Reduced one
way rates in connection with home
seekers excursions are TO be abOl. shed

and after January l next. Originally
these rates Were put into effect to pre-
vent the scalping of homeseekeis'
tickets.
Since the passage of the Hepburn act
it has been held 10 be illegal TO make
these reductions without giving so
days notice and filing special tariffs
with the interstate commerce commits
sion, and this involves considerable la
Dor and expense, to avoid which the
Western Passenger association voted
to abolish them, provided the south
western roads would do the same. BY
vote taken in the southwestern pas
senger bureau they have now agreed
to do so.
Another change which will be
brought about by the passage of the
2-cent passenger rate laws il. several
states is the abolition of the certifi-
cate form of ticket. Western anu

away with it at the end of the present
year.

RAILROAD MEN BELIEVE SHRINK.
AGE IN STOCK WILL COST
MAGNATE CONTROL.

That James j. Hill will lose the
Northern Pacific or that control NJ
the road has already passed from him
is the belief of Portland railway men.
The best that Hill can hope to do
they say, is to retain for the Great
Northern it's half interest in the Port
land q Seattle. 1t is also understood
that he will be able TO keep his inter-
ests in the Burlington
But as for the Northern Pacific prip-
erty it is believed this will not much
longer be known as a Hill interest. The
principal reasons are the Shrinkage
of Hill securities in the stock market
to one-half of their former value.
This means heavy losses to those hold
ing enough of the securities to con-
troll two big transcontinental railroads.
Hard put for money and forced To re-
aliZe at the bottom of the market. Mr.
Hill is understood to have suffered
heavily. That the slump in values will
cost him his interests in the Northern
Pacific is believed.
The new owners of the property are
not known as yet but it is thought that
j. PierpOht Morgan is a big factor in
the quiet buying of Northern Pacific
He is credited with the purpose of
playing large part in the future his
tory of the road and of acquiring a
position of greater authority in the
