lions. represented by John Price, and
his efforts to spend his money creates
considerable fun. Beatrice Harlowe
made hit with her acting. and her
dash and ginger. Her acting OF the
part of the crazy queen, and the ef-
forts OF Comedians Price and Phil
Mills to humor her, convulsed the au-
dience.
Several interesting specialties are
introduced during the action of the
piece, and number OK new and
catchy songs are contributed by the
chorus.

Former Trooper of 18th Cavalry
Shoes Him After Struggle.
With eyes flashing, nostrils distend-
ed, ears laid back, mouth open and
whiskers standing sharply on end,
Satan, a vicious horse, gave desperate
battle with a brawny blacksmith yes
terday afternoon, says the Des Moines
Register and Leader. Satan determined
he would not be shod; the blacksmith
shod him single-handed, but in the tus-
sic had his left hand literally crushed
Several bones were broken and the
smith suffered excruciating pain.
The name Of the smith is H. W.
Brown, a former trooper in Troop D,
Eleventh Cavalry, who was discharged
here and took up his trade with Vro-
man.
Satan is a beauty; a little sorrel
weighing scarcely more than 1900
pounds, plump and full Of ginger and
fire.
Satan has always rebelled savagely
against the iron shoe. His very name
was given him on this account. He
has never been known to let a smith
shoe him without being bound by leath-
er straps until he could not move.
Brown is a wiry soldier, erect and
solid.
Satan was led In by a common
halter and tied to the ring in the side
Of the wall. With great leather apron
about his waist, Brown took the shoe
and approached Satan. Quick as
fash the horse wheeled and both feet
shot into the spot where Browns stom-
ach was-but Brown was quicker in re-
moving it

Tho way rhe1 Do At Fnirs.

A recent German paper gives an al
ecdote of a man who strayed into a
charity BAZAAR" and had a trying
experience.
He had made several quite unsatis-
factory purchases, not knowing how to
refuse the demands of the pretty sales
women, and at last, to prove that he
could make one sensible investment, he
bought a small match box, and carried
1t off in triumph and haste.
Examining it after he had left the
booth, he discovered that there was no
place on which to light the matches.
So, with the air of one determined
not to be cheated, he marched back to
the young lady Of whom he had bought
the box.
There is a mistake here" he said.
"You sold me this pocket match box,
and there is no place on 1t to scratch
the Matches"
my dear sir" said the young lady,
"you are quite right; l made a mis-
take. That is intended for jewel box,
and costs so cents more, If you please"
And what did you do2" asked a
friend, to whom he related his tale of
woe.

CHAPTER XVII.

Lynn Yeames had the sagacity to leave
Coneyford, and keep out of sight know
ing that he could do nothing to re-estab-
lish his character until he had got into
the farm where he was to work such
wonders or finding the bad weather that
succeeded the frost intolerable, or society
dull, or for some other reason that may
be clearer later on.
He had made himself very popular at
Coneyford with his charities, his reckless
riding, his agreeable manners, and his as
sumption of bluff, outspoksn honesty.
People were inclined to think even better
of him in his absence than when he was
amongst them, remembering the pleasant
side of his character and forgetting the
little slips which occasionally awakened
suspicion. He was spoken of as a fine
type of muscular Christianity. Miss Dali
rymple was constantly with these people,
and as it was generally understood that
a tacit engagement existed between her
and Yeames, they thought to please her by
talking about him, and sounding his

blacksmith's tactics, picked up in the
United States army, where bad horses
are plentiful. Advancing to Satan'S
side, Brown was ready for the next
spring and caught Satan sharply in
the flank with the point Of his elbow :
painful grunt was Satan's reply, and
he huddled himself in surprise in 8
corner.
The smith stopped to lift hoof, and
Satan, without moving his foreparts,
deliberately twisted himself in a posi-
ton to let fly one foot, but Brown
again escaped by springing aside; this
time, however, the smith trapped the
fellow and caught his left foot before
he had the leg stiffened There was

CHAPTER Xvi

The following week Miss Dalrymple
moved into her new home with all her
household; and one morning when 1 had
been to settle affairs with Captain Ran
ger, walked across the meadow, climbed
over the fence that separated It from
the Dingle paddock, and made my way
to the Cottage. 1 found everything in
its place, and the whole house as neat and
comfortable as if the tenants had been
there a year.
It seemed to me that had never seen
Nurse Gertrude to such advantage. Black
was certainly becoming to her, and her
dress was, to my eyes, the perfection of
grace and elegance, giving fullness to her
figure which, as have said before, was,
in my opinion, trihe too slight. Her
carriage was never wanting in dignity,
but / thought shs bore herself with the
air of one conscious of being mistress of
the house. Yet there was no stiffness or
formality in her manner; little Laure
herself did not welcome me with sweeter
smiles.
