attended the special meeting held for
the purpose. The meeting at which
DR.. Manning was elected for one of
the most important church posts in
America, lasted only twelve minutes,
DR.. Manning having no rival in the
field. The unique ceremony of de
livering the keys" to Dr. Manning
was identical with that used at the
induction of the first rector of Trim
lty, DR.. Ford Compton, in 1896, and
has been adhered to ever since. Yes

cation marched in procession through.
the churchyard to the main door of
the church. The door was locked and
the key left in it. The senior warden,
in appropriate speech, presented DR..
Manning with the key. The new rec
tor then turned the key, opened the
door and led the way up the aisle
through the darkened church to the
altar, where prayer was offered to
conclude the ceremony
DR.. Manning was also vicar of St.
Agnes Chapel, in Trinity parish. He
was born in England forty years ago.
He was graduated from the Univer-
sity of the South, at Sewanee, Tenn,
and holds degrees from other South
ern colleges. Ordained in 1891, he
was appointed rector of Trinity
Church at Redlands, Cal, in 1892, of
st. Johns Church at Landsdowne,
Tenn, in 1896, and of Christ Church,
Nashville, in 1898, which post he held
till called to New York to join the
Trinity forces.-From the Christian

1t appears that the recent inter.
vention in Cuba cost the United
States some six millions of dollars.
And Cuba, observes the New York
Press, is expected to pay the
freight" But the terms are easy,
The President is empowered by Con-
gress to receive from the Cuban Gov
ernment from time to time such
amounts to reimburse the United
States as he may consider the Cuban
treasury then able to pay without
serious embarrassment. There is
a chance here for a difference OF
opinion between the Cuban Secretary
Of the Treasury and the President of
the United States in regard to the
meaning of the last six words of the
condition.

CHAPTER TX.

Next day the brother and sister
went out riding by themselves. The
game had been but poorly preserved
during Lady Cars sway, and had not
been of great Importance at any time;
so that Toms time was by no means
absorbed by the shooting to be had,
and Janet had begged for one long
ride with him before he went back
to school. 1t was bright September
afternon, the air crisp with an au-
tumnal chill, enough to make the
somewhat sluggish blood thrill in the
veins of the boy and girl, who were so
like each other and had certain
attachment to each other-more
strong, as was natural, on Janet's side
than on Toms. Lady Car had come
out to the door to see them ride away.
take care of Janet" she had said.
Beaufort's warning look, and her own
sense, very different from that of
Beaufort, that what she said would
not bear the least weight, prevented
her from saying more. But perhaps
she looked more as she followed them
with anxious eyes. Don't, Carry"
her husband said, as he drew her into
the house, don't show any distrust
of the boy"
"Distrust!' she said. 81 don't think
he cares what l show"
"My love! don't think so badly of
the children"
"Oh, no; I don't think badly of
them. They are so young they don't
know; but it is true, all the same.
They don't mind how look, Edward,
which must be my blame and not
theirs she added with faint smile;
chow should it be theirs? 1t is only
part of the failure. Some people
make no impression on-any one.
They are ineffective, like what you
say of wall paper or piece of fur
niture."
"These are strange things to say"
said Beaufort, gravely.
SILLY things" said Lady Car. "If
you are not busy, let us take stroll
about the gardens. have not been
out to-day"
She knew he was not busy, and she
had given over even wishing him to
be so. Desire grows faint with long
deception and disappointment; but he
was always kind-ready to stroll in
the gardens, or anything she pleased.

Must Label Inferior Fish.

AS many packers put up hump
back and dog salmon under fancy
names and thus sell them to consum-
ers who believe them to be superior
varieties, the Department of Agricnl-
ture at Washington, D. c., ordered
that these fish when canned should be
labeled with their common names.
The decision also says that the fish
commonly known as lake herring
should be SO called, but not desig-
mated "whitefish."

TRINITY's NEW RECTOR.

The richest church parish in the

that?"
Tom gave vent to a large laugh.
Did-what? Oh, 1 can't tell you all
he did. He rode like anything; flew
over every fence and every ditch that
nobody else would take, and enjoyed
himself That he did-till he mar
ried, which spoils all mans fun"
"Oh, Toni
well, it does-you have to give up
ever SO many things, and live like
an old woman / shan't marry, can
tell you, Jan, not for years"
"Then / shall stop with you, Tom,
and keep the house"
Don't you be too sure of that"
said Tom. II shall have too many
fellows coming and going to do with
a girl about the place.
"But you must have some one to
keep house. Mother said so, She is
not going to have me at Easton-that
am sure of; and if am not to keep
house for you, Tom, what shall do?"
said Janet, with symptoms of coming
tears.
Then Tom did what the men of a
family generally do when foolish
sister relies upon them. He promptly
thew her over. "You should not have
checked mother" he said.
