CONCLUSION.

In her career as the wife Of west

guests. and she made no very deter.
mined objection when her husband tel.
ephoned that he was bringing Lie az
well a. Lee Virginia to stay at Elk
Lodge for few days. The revelation

women had las Lie put IT. made a
whole lot Of difference" 70 Mrs. Red
neld. It naturally cleared the daughter
Of some part Of her handicap. and It
had also made the mothers attitude
less Objectionable.
| She had seen Lie but once, and that
was in the distorting atmosphere Of
the restaurant, and she remembered
her only as . lumpy. scowling, loud
voiced creature with blowsy hair and
q watchful eye. She was profoundly
surprised. therefore. when Lee Viz
ginia introduced quiet spoken. rather

mother.
I'm glad to see you, Mrs. Wether-
ford" Eleanor said. with the courtesy
which was instructive with her.
I'm mighty obliged for the chance
to come" replied Lie. II told Rsddy

he said, Come along and Lee she

Ross had not yet arrived at the cab

expect him till after dark. HE prob
ably slept late. and, besides, there are
always delays on the trail. But don't
worry. Swenson will ride to the top
Of the divide with him and II 1t seems
necessary will come all the way"
This feeling Of anxiety helped to
steady Lie. and she got through the
meal very well. She was unwontedly
silent and little sad as well as con-
strained. She could see that Lee fitted
In with these surroundings, that she
was 1T home with shining silver and
dainty dishes, and she said to herself:
II could have been something like her

 with the rapid current, and then also went under.
 After 40 minutes the corpse of the father was brought to the bank, ana aaiG an hour later that of the child was found. At the same time a man came in great ox- Icitement to the nearest police station. He
 said that he had just received letter from his brother-in-law, telling him that The intended to drown his daughter and to commit suicide himself from the Pont Neuf He was a nurse at the Charite hos lpital, and there had been difference be- tween him and his wife. They separated la month ago. and the child was left in lcare of relatives. The mother had ne4n- while instituted a suit for divorce. which Iexasperated the man so much that he threatened several times to kill her daughter and to put an end to his cwn life. His brother-in-law went to the man s house as soon as he had received the ct ter, but he was already gone. He then
 went to the police, and after telling the story he was informed of what had hap lpened.

CONVICT MARRIED
 IN UNIQUE MANNER

Paris, September 9.--(Special) 1.-The town hall of the Fourteenth Arrondissement of Paris has been the scene of curious
 marriage. A vonvct, provisionally sen fenced to eight years hard labor, who may receive several years more at the end | of another, trial in october, was there duly land legally married to a young woman named Blanche, a distant cousin. The lconyict whose name Is Contier, has been found guilty of burglary and various lother offenses. Next october he Is to be tried for another burglary outside Paris. lIis cousin Blanche was at the trial She admitted that she was in love with him land was engaged to him. Whatever would be the sentence she would be true to him. She would marry him. even if Inc wore the convict's stripes.
 | Cortier was affected by her fidelity, for getting his past and thinking only of his future He sent word to Blanche that he was willing as soon as she could ar lrange it. The prison authorities were ap- piled to and gave their consent. Two municipal guards fetched the convict at the prison. They were to see that he should not miss his way, at the same time to act as witnesses.
 Cortier was led up the wedding stairs to the wedding hall of the Marie. An attend ant in bright uniform soon appeared. followed by the assistant mayor. The bride next appeared with her two wit lnesses Blanche wore a white wedding dress and orange blossoms. Her two wit |nesses sat down. She walked over and stood beside her f1ance, holding his hand for long time--the only hand that was
 free for the other was tightly held by the municipal guard. The papers were then spread out. and found correct. There
 was determined. almost a proud yes from each. They pressed one anothcr's hand again very warmly, spoke a few words, signed the marriage register. and then separlted. the one to work and ex- plate. and the other to wait faithfully for lejght years at least

THROWS DAUGHTER
 FROM POINT NEUF

Paris September 9.-(Special )-Pont Neuf, which has seen many a drowning incident before, has witnessed one more, and a cruel one A father threw his own daughter, little girl of ,, into the river, where she was drowned, and then plunged in himself to put an end to his life. The Iscene was in the evening. Many people had come to the banks of the river to enjoy the cool air. The man was seen crossing the bridge from the left with the little giM walking by his side. As she was walking over the bridge the child was chattering pleasantly, and had not the slightest idea of the intentions of her father.
 Suddenly he seized her by the waist and flung her over the parapet into the river. Little Pauline screamed. A number of people who had seen the desperate act rushed to the edge of the quays and boat men got into boats to row to the rescue. But the child, paralyzed probably by ter TOT, had sunk beneath the surface with

up children. And if you lower your eye brows to them and repulse their familiari- Ity trey will retire into their corner and
 not say another word.'
 M. Bertaut concludes by saying that his
 dearest dream is that some day the
 French, like the English. will have hotels
 which display the warning, "No Ger
 mans"
 What with the heat and the Moocish
 lquestion, Parislans are almost becoming Comparisons have been made between 1911 and 1911. The question lis asked whether at the interval of a cen |tury, astronomical, atmospherical and po- |ltical events are not repeated. The sum mer of 1911, we are told, was exceptionally lhot, but for all that the thermometer did |not rise above SS degrees. This year we have seen it rise, in spite of our .ndig- |nant protest, to 9S degrees. If the SS de grees of 1911 were followed by the horrors of 1872 at Moscow, what are we to expect |of the 9S degrees of this year, if the Mo rocco question is not settled?
 In 1911 there was much talk of the comet Kiess, the very comet that astron- omers are again spying at the end of |their telescope this year. Why cannot this comet keep out of the way just when we are in the midst of Agadir and 3S de- lgrees heat? But the vintage of 1911 was wonderful. For years after people talked |of the Win de la comte."
