Agatha, and the girl who desired To
marry was to receive a dowry amount
ing to the full sum of the monthly
stipends which she would have re,
ceiVed had she remained at the castle
for the entire two years. The same
provision for her companions was
made in the event of the real Agatha's
marriage before the expiration Of the
time. If any young man proposed to
the real Agatha, ignorant of her
identity, and she accepted him, she
was directed by the will to produce
left hand the betrothal ring of her
mothers family, gold ring set with
big cross of emeralds, as proof of her
identity as the real Agatha. Mrs.
Armistead and all the girls were to be
bound by oath not to reveal the identi,
ty of the real Agatha, and each OF the
after was to be likewise addressed as
the Honorable Agatha WyckhoT," by
suitors and servants, in order to pre-.
serve the secret. This condition could
be carried out without fear of recogni,
ton by the servants, as the real
Agatha had not been in England since
her early childhood. Thus her identi.
ty could be easily concealed, and, by
this means, if any proposal of mar,
rage were made to her it would be
from a man whose motives were not
mercenary. but purely those of natural
affection, which was the stepfathers
object in making the will
The will closed with the appoint
ment of executors and trustees and
then came the witnesses, the date, and
the place of residence.
Then we can stay in thus bully old
place for six weeks" said Vincent
'Hooray!" He's such a kid
The secretary smiled at his enthus.
iaSm, and Vincent must have thought
her smile very attractive. because he
drew aside and began to talk to heI
in low tones, while 1 discussed the will
with Mrs. Armistead, who seemed per
tectly willing to impart whatever in,
formation we desired. 1t was just like
Vincent to begin a Irritation with the
secretary, just as if there were not
six handsome girls Of his own station
in the castle. But anything feminine
will do for him as long as she has a
sweet smile or soulful eyes, or some
other equally trivial attraction. He'd
dirt with Mrs. Armistead herself, I'm
sure, If that estimable dame, beggins
her pardon, would give him a chance
ct am delighted, Mr.. Terhune," said
Mrs. Armistead, after we had seated
ourselves in the library, that you and
Lord Wilfred have decided to stay
with US, and think it would be well
to put OF our other visitors who were
20 come to US for this six weeks 1 do
not believe in having more than two
OF three young men at once. The time
is so very short"
TT would give us a better chance"
1 agreed, and she turned toward the
secretary. who was evidently in the
secret.
MY dear" she said, "as these gen.
tlemen are going to remain with US for
sixsweeks, 1 think it would be as well
If we put on the Pere -ale brothers
till the six weeks after that VIII you

At this a thought struck me and
turned to Vincent. And you had bet

change of plan"

LnueeU you must, sara MRS. Arm
istead, land, by the way, Mr.. Terhune,
If you and Lord Vincent wish, l can
provide you with copy of the will
It is difficult, l think, to remember all
it's conditions"
perhaps that's a good idea" I an
swered. TT is certainly an extraordi-
nary document; and what an extraor-
binary man this Fletcher Boyd must
have been, Mrs. Armistead, to conceive
such a plan as that"
Mrs Armistead laughed. Il think
he was" she said. 81 saw my brother
in-law only once in my life, but that
was enough to impress me with the
strength of the mans character and
his eccentricity. He was intensely
American-what they call a 'self-made
man over there, I imagine-and it
was his determination that his STEP
daughter the Honorable Agatha, in
spite of her English birth, should be
educated in America. To this her
mother agreed, on condition that she
should be allowed to bring her daugh-
ter out in England and that she should
make that country her home when her
schooling had been completed. Ac-
cordingly, when Lady Wyckhoff died,
the child being about IL years old,
Fletcher Boyd promised his wife to
carry out her wishes in that respect.
A few years later he began the work
of building up this old castle of Wyck-
hon and putting in every modern con-
venience, as you see, SO that 1t should
be ready for his daughter to live in
temporarily, before he established her
in London with some good lady to
oversee her presentation into society,
according to her mothers ideas"
This was a long speech for the
good Mrs. Armfstead, and she paused
for breath.
81 see," 1 commented 'tHe made a
very excellent job of it. Then. as
understand it, his daughter has never
been in England since her early child
hood?"
NO" said Mrs. Armistead. Poor
child, it's practically all new to her.
But l mustn't pity her! The way she
and those friends of hers take hold
of things passes my understanding"
"And where did she find so many ate
tractive girls, each bearing the Chris

MAKING BET
NOT GAMBLING

New York, Aug. 8.-The making
of an ordinary bet as distinguished
from the practice Of betting all COM
ers was declared by Judge Gaynor OF
the supreme court today not to be Il
crime. The case was that against
George Sterling. who was accused OF
violating the new anti-gambling law
by betting a basket of golf balls on
the result of golf game in Nassau
county, Long Island.
Justice Gaynor dismissed the case
against Sterling and ruled as fol-
lows: 1.-The difference between or
binary betting and gambling is too
plain to require words. An ordinary
bet is not a crime, whether made in
your parlor or on the golf links OF
racetrack, nor is the making OF a
note or memorandum thereof. but II
YOU hold yourself out to bet and bet
all corners or generally. or become a
general recorder of such bets or OF
bets between others, you are guilty
of crime

WILL IMPROVE
NAVIGATION

The government dredge boat
Wallowa has been assigned to duty
above the city, where 400-foot
dam will be constructed at the
head OF the Slaughter House rapids.
The dam will be built from the
Idaho side and will divert the now
of water from between the main
land and Cox's island to the chan
mel of the stream.
The work will require about sin
weeks. and after that time the Wa =
Iowa will be taken to the lowe
Snake river between Riparia AMI
the mouth of the stream for general
improvement work.
An inspection of the stream be
tween Lewiston and Riparia was
made by Major McIndoe and Cap
tain Winslow last Monday and thu
decision to make the Improvement
above the city was then reached
The construction of the Slaughter
house dam will materially increas'
the flow Of water in the main chan
mel and will greatly facilitate tn
navigation Of the stream between
Lewiston and Riparia.
