What did she care this night that

There was no man for her In ali

The anniversary but served TO lnten-

much to be done in preparation TOT

The sun set clear but left chill the
air on a November day among the
New Hampshire hills, whose leafless
trees shook their branches mourn
fully as the northwest winds passed
them by.
The promise of the next day was
bright. despite the cold, which brings
no terrors to the New England spirit,
long Injured to the blasts from the
north. 1t was Thanksgiving eve, ana
no other day of all the year brings
such gladness to those born where
Thanksgiving day first had its being.
Poor. indeed, was the household that
had not ready it's glorious pies OF
pumpkin, nor its plump, fat turkey IN
readiness for the coming of the NOR
row. Few were the hearts that had
been unable to forget what of the
mast was sorrowful that they might
hail and welcome this day OF home
bringing and home joys.
Since they could first recollect, aye.
since the days of their fathers and
fathers fathers, it had been so, that
with pure glad hearts, grateful Tor
benefits the day should be heralded
and kept throughout. To greet II
otherwise would be dishonorlng Oh
The mothers who bore them and the
sires from whose loins they sprang
Yet in a neat, white cottage, half-
hidden beneath one of these great
bleak hills, was young woman VINO,
in Difference of parental authority and
the traditions of her people, refused
to enter into the spirit of the season
Dolly Benson was an only chlld and
if the truth must be told, somewhat
spoiled although a very pretty one.
She had had her way since she could
remember. and even yet, although
nearly two years had passed, she
could not understand why her parents
had refused to let her marry Jabez
Jackson.
He too, was an only son, and his
mother a widow. They, JaDez ana
she, had been playmates in childhood
and lovers since before they knew
the meaning of the word.
To be sure, his mother was poor,
but DoIly's father had enough and to
spare There was no reason IN the
world for refusing him.
She hated everybody, she declared,
this night. The world was hateful
and everybody in it. She could not
understand why anybody could have
the heart to be thankful for anything
1t was just two years this very
night that Jabez had asked her to
marry him. Two years ago tomorrow
her father had sent him away with
out hope.
Then he had enlisted and gone
away TO the Philippines. Stories

Sucking.
The Vale is country residence
worthy of such wealthy and fashion
able people as the Newtons.
1t is large, modern house, furn-
ished with every convenience and sur
rounded by well-laid-out grounds, with
all their proper stablings, outhouses,
farmyards and paddocks. A park
just large enough to be pleasant and
small enough to be devoid of the
trouble which clings to larger tracts
of forest land, stretches at the back
of houses away to the pleasant little
river DON.
At the end of the park, and hidden
from view by the trees, stands an old
house nearly in ruins. No romance
attaches to it, and no mysterious
phantom parades it at midnight.
1t is a pretty, tumbledown place,
empty, tenantless, and all but useless,
for the owner has not been seen for
years his very name is not known, 1t
| has passed out of the remembrance OF
the village folk.
| Old Daniel Newton, Stella's father
wished very much to buy the old
place and the land upon which it
stood, but the matter was found to be
entangled in so many lawyers webs
that Mr.. Newton had abandoned al
thought of adding it to his other es
| tate in despair, and the Hut, as the
people Familiarity called it, was left u
its natural cobwebs and dusty ruin
The Vale was rather solitary, there
being no near neighbors of its owl
class, but it was always well fillet
with visitors and country cousins, AMI
did not feel dull.
The nearest house of any import
ance was shooting box, three mile
distant.

empty at Christmas, there being iii

It was a sea nymph rising from a

crested wave.
The waving locks were of marvel
Gus grace, the face was sweet, pass
ionate beauty. But 1t was not the
beauty which so deeply attracted her;
it was the weird strangeness of the
fact that the face resembled hers!
Resembled? Nay, it was an exact re-
Election in all save color.
She turned to a mirror, then stared
at the marble face again. Yes! She
was not the sport of fancy. The face
was hers!
Then the lamp quivered in her
hand A mysterious half-awful and de-
licious sense of the supernatural fell
on her.
Her face went from red to white,
her lips were tremulous. She turned
and found Sir Richad Wildfang stand
watching her.
With quick, impetuous movement
she set the lamp on the bracket and
confronted him.
She forgot everything save the in
Gignation which filled her at his spy
like presence.
"Sir Richard" she commenced, and
there was. the same ring of resolute
woman courage in her voice that rang
in it when she was stung into retort.
ing upon Mrs. Newton, "Sir Rich
ard"
"Ah! Here you are; why, where
have you been?" exclaimed Lord Mar
mion, who entered with Mrs. Newton
on his arm.
1--WE have been admiring your latest
acquisition, my dear fellow" said
Sir Richard, waving his hand toward
the statue as he offered the other to
Miss Newton. 1T is very beautiful
Miss Newton was quite struck with
it."
"Were you? Well, don't wonder at
it." said Lord Marmion. tits an excel
lent bit of sculpture, but do you know
bought 1t for another reason than
it's intrinsic worth? Can't you guess 2"
mo; really / can't" said Sir Rich
ard
"Can your said Lord Marmion,
turning with laugh to Stella.
NO. she replied, family, dropping
Sir Richards arm and going over to
her mother.
mo? Well, that's strange. Surely it
can't be my fancy. But do you know
thought when saw it that it was like
you," and he smiled at Stella. Don't
you think it is?'
"I-I-don't know" she replied, still
family.
ct is a little, perhaps" remarked
Sir Richard. TT is difficult to say. Who
is the SCULPTOR"
ooh, a new man, a young fellow
named FeIton-Louis FELTON,. Quite
character in his way. Comes of very
old family, you know, but very poor.
Proud into the bargain"
Louis Felton," murmured Stella,
unconscjously.
IT beg your pardon" said Lord Mar
mion.
Il did not speak," she replied, look
ing UP at him.
He saw she was pale, and held back
the curtain for her to pass out, saying
as he did So:
1.-THE next is my waltz, Miss New
ton! DON'T hide away anywhere. 1t
is the last waltz"
But she would not dance any more
that night. Her headache had returned
and she would go.
Stella was resolute sometimes, and
when she was, Mahomet's mountain
was not more fmmovable.
So the Newton carriage was brought
around, and attended by train of
Gespairing courtfers, beautiful Stella
departs with that name ringing in her
ears and the strange mystery of the
sea nympif. to haunt her dreams.

ManipulatOrs
Beat BOOkieS
In Northwest
Advance Information Enables
Gathering In of Easy M Oney
i'm Half Dozen Cities

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept. 2>ARacin
men of northwest cities, including Sc
attic, Everett, Spokane, Walla Walla,
Portland and Butte, it is alleged, have
been victimized by a shrewd gang of
race news manipulators, who operated
for two weeks from NHnoru park with
great success by beating the regular
wire racing report with a code. Sat
urday detectives at Minoru park dis
covered the game, and as the result OF
the capture of two men who gave their
names as Plummer and Moon, the op-
Grafton has been stopped. though not
before the schemers had cleaned UP sew
eral thousand dollars on their advance
information.
The regular racing report at pres
ent is sent out from the Western Union
office. and is obtained from the track
by long distance telephone. This is
a slow process, and the alleged con-
spirators, it is said, took advantage
of the fact to get the results on tele-
phone before the regular report was
put on, and in consequence they reached
the telegraph several seconds ahead and
sent out the names of winners in a
code The result of this was that while
betting was still going on in other
cities, and before the regular wire ad-
vices were received certain persons in
each city received the results in time
to place bets on the winning horses.
There seems no legal way in which
to punish the alleged perpetrators.
