 When he reached the rotunda he found Alice alone. They searched everywhere, but could find DO trace of her. and then hurried home
 Has Miss Glenwood come ?" Alice asked the girl who answered their ring.
 Yes, miss; she's come and gone"
 Gone!" cried Alice, dumfounded Gone where?"
 T dunno, miss; she had a hack and tuk her trunk
 Took her trunk" Alice staggered back against the wall That will do. Susan" she said to the girl. who stood staring. open-mouthed
 She glanced at Ralph, He was very pale.
 Ralph Mason," she cried By all that's good, what have you done? ? There! Don't look at me like that! Go in and sit down, and l will see if can find out anything upstairs"
 On her table Alice found a plotted. tear-stained note. Dear Alice:" it read. Ralph has fallen in love with me, and he does not know. He will never forgive me. 1 can never tell him! l cannot see him. I have gone to Chicago. Tell him, Alice. Oh. am the most miserable. miserable, mis- erable of girls,"
 Then, after all Ralph did not know. He might forgive it from Glen; never from her She looked at her watch !: just five o'clock
 Ralph" she called, flying down the i stairs. She has started for Chicago Get hack-bring her back-if not go with her"
 Ralph got into Chicago in the even ing. He was tired. so went directly to a hotel, and to bed The next morn ing he enjoyed good breakfast, smoked a cigar and visited a barber shop. before starting in search of the seminary
 Tell Miss Mason gentleman wishes to see her" he said to the girl who stood waiting.
 Some one in the parlor wants to see you called the girl moment later, as she knocked at Glen's door.
 Now, to Glen, Ralphs passionate words had been utterly unexpected. She had wanted him to feel little sold when he found what a joke had been played upon him, but that things should take such a serious turn had never entered her mind. Her first impulse had been to get away. She knew what time the limited left for Chicago, so she had called hack and was driven to her uncle's. There she hurriedly packed her trunk, scribbled few lines to Alice, drove to the depot and took the train for Chicago.

Lad become or Alice.
 Let me go behind you said Glen, as Ralph offered his hand to help her down the first flight of steps.
 Are you not afraid of falling" he asked over his shoulder. Scarcely had he spoken when the heel of his shoe caught one of the steps, and he fell headlong. The flight was not long one, but 1t was quite fall. and Ralph stunned for moment, lay with closed eyes on the landing below.
 Glen was terribly frightened. She fairly flew down the stairs. She raised his head upon her lap, and kissed his white lips. "Oh, Ralph, my darling she cried Are you dead?"
 Ralph struggled upon his knees; his eyes were shining with passion. He caught her hands in his and covered them with kisses.
 If l were dead" he whispered pas sionately, your voice would call me back from the very grave, my angel!'
 For moment Glen stood with face blanched. eyes dilated and breath coming in gasps-then she wrenched her hand from his grasp and darted like a wild thing down the stairs.
 Ralph's first impulse was to hurry

An Inspiring Spectacle.
Sixteen hard-hit.ing, steel-belted
American battleships, gun-bristling
and burly of girth, but sparkling
white in their immaculate dressings
of peace, sailed away Monday under
the dazzling sun of a cloudless win
ter sky, on their famous twin-sea ex-
pedition of $4,000 miles along for
eign shores and changing climes to
the west coast of the United States.
President Roosevelt on the bridge of
the cruiser yacht, the Mayflower,
personally led the magnificent four
mile line of fighting vessels during
the first stage OF the voyage. From
Roads to the Horseshoe Bend of

fleets new home at the Golden
Gate. Then. when the wide reaches
of the sea were visible through the
wide-swung Capes of Virginia, he

COMMERCIAL COLUMN
Weekly Review Of Trade and latest
Market Reuorts.

r. @. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
OF Trade says:
Commercial reports indicate little
alteration for the past week. but
greater confidence In marked i'm
provement after January /. Holiday
trade monopolizes attention, in some
sections exceeding that OF last year,
although aggregate sales do not COM
pare favorably with 1906 to date.
Jobbing and wholesale lines are sea-
sonably quiet, while manufacturing
operations are curtailed, pending the
resumption of normal demands.
The supply of labor has not in
creased In ratio to the closed plants,
however, owing to emigration about
double that of last year.
Fluctuations In the raw material
produced some irregUlarity in the
tone OF cotton goods, but few net
changes occurred In prices. AS
neither manufacturer nor buyer
seems desirous of establishing a new
basis OF quotations the market is
nominally unchanged. The only di-
vision of the cotton goods market
that shows accumulation Is the ex-
port class. Certain lines of woolens
for next fall have been opened and
the market canvassed to some extent.
No definite tendency is noted thus
far, however. and many dealers pre-
fer to postpone presenting new lines
somwhat longer. There is a belief
that the cheaper lines will attract
relatively more attention than in re-
cent years, but there exists the same
uncertainty as to which variety OF
cheap goods will be popular.
Footwear shipments through Bos-
ton are much smaller than a year
ago, yet sentiment has improved and
wholesalers are expected to operate
freely In the near future. Less A.
nancial stringency helps the tone
and reports from statesmen are unani-
nous in declaring that no surplus
stocks are held by jobbers.
