CHAPTER VII.-Continued,

How glad ! am that my beloved nephew
has received an education" he continued
satirically. How very cheerfully I shall
welcome that university committee which
has an appointment with me tomorrow
They Will not receive a check, merely
they will receive full stop"
He walked over to the pier glass and
surveyed himself in silence. The ref1ec-
ton showed a man above medium height
of massive build, with the eyes Of an
eagle flashing out from beneath heavy,
overhanging eyebrows. a wide mouth and
a heavy chin. Bennington surveyed his
image seriously for several seconds, and
then grin stole across his grim features,
and he clinched his fists and shrugged
his shoulders.
Il suppose" he said to his reflection,
that there is no possible way to avoid
it-once fighting man. always fighting
man-and there's a blamed good fight in
ME yet
A queer. w1stful expression next came
to his eyes, and as he continued to look
into the mirror his mouth relaxed and
he became even little tender. And the
boy has fighting blood, too.' he said.
He's Banpington, he's Bennington
to the core. and 1 want him to fight with
me-" His lips hardened once more and
his eyes took on logged determination.
HE has to fight with me-
Bennington turned and started toward
the hall. but before he reached the door
Claude Lorrain, the count who had
thrown aside his patrimony, sauntered
through 1t. arrayed in perfectly fitting
evening clothes. The two men looked
each other steadily In the eyes.

Special CaOiegTam TO The Star.
LONDON. September 9.-An adyentur-
Gus career and an interesting romance
of the baronetage are recalled by the
death of Sir Harry Yelverton Goring OF
Tamworth.
Before his succession as eleventh bar
onet. the late Sir Harry kept a tobac-
conist's shop on Silver street, Tamworth,
and on the day the news of his success
sion to the baronetcy reached him he
was actually weighing out snuff The
ing. who married a daughter of the
third Viscount Avonmore. In New lea
land. Australia, Canada and India Sir
Harry had travelled extensively. He was
quite a young man when he went to
New Zealand. where his father was pri-
vate secretary to the governor, Sir George
Grey; but. finding no suitable vocation,
and after seeing some tough fighting in
the Maori campaign, he enlisted as a pri-
vate soldier in the Suffolk regiment.
He subsequently transferred to the Stat
Yorkshire regiment, in which he served
in India, and rose to be sergean. major
In 1856 he retired on pension Of Sc a
week.
He had large family, and he entered
the tohacconist business in Tamworth.
where he was living when, in 1897. his
cousin. Col. Sir Charles GorinR tenth
baronet, died He received the news
through an. acquaintance, who wired him
to look at the obituary column OF the
Times. The new baronet thought 1t was
hoax, but went down to the reading
room and there verified the news Sir
Harry subsequently retired from business.

Our Richest University.
From the Boston Transcript.


The State University OF Minnesota. Of
which George E. Vincent. well known in
this city. Is president, bids fair to be-
como the wealthiest university in the
United States. On some Of tho land
(such as every state university receives
from the state or the nation) granted to
this university iron has been found in
such quantities and Of such richness that
the endowment OF the university will run
into the millions. It is already ono of
the largest of state universities. and has
always been distinguished for its popular
strength and the stalwartneSs and
humanity of Its instruction.
There is good deal Of luck in such a
happening as this, because no one sup
posed, when this land was selected by the
authorities of the university, that 1t con-
tanned iron. AS a usual thing, the best
land in these western states that have
state universities is the prairie, or farm
ing land. because most fertile and certain
to last forever in productiveness. but
when the early settlers of Iowa, the state
they chose timber land, as most Of them
had come from Ohio. which was much
more heavily tirnbered In those days than
the prairie state Of Iowa, and thus they
supposed that the timber land would prove
of the most value. The reverse was ex-
actly the case, because nobody wanted
timber land, for the wood was Of little
financial value compared with the reye-
nues derived from purely prairie land in
big crops OF grain.

many another. thinks that a loose addi-

ample OF the general method: These
runners were young men. and they car
rled in their hands something that would
show to all the Indians that they came
from the chiefs. and they had knocked on
each lodge. and they had told the people
that lived there to be ready to move all the
things that they wanted to carry away with
them, and they must be ready to go on
certain morning" Contrast this s an ex-

one produced by a correct use Of connect

improperly used. Compare the two In the

most Weep in Their
Despair.

Special Cahlegram to The Star.
LONDON. September Summer at
Kew Gardens has resolved itself into
one long battle with the drought.
Already the losses in killed and Grip
pied plants are heavy. and unless the
enemy abates his attack. and that
quickly. the year is likely to go down
in the records as one Of the most dis
astrous ever known
Very few of the visitors who throng
the gardens daily have any idea Of the
prodigies OF valor with the hose and
watering pot which the perspiring
gardeners have achieved throughout
these long weeks Of destccating sun
shine
The deputy curator spoke OF all this
today with the air OF a man smiling
through his tears.
Cannot Water Everything.
I'VE have suffered badly" he said
THE men are watering all the time
but we cannot water everything. II II
goes on much longer there will not be
much left to water. The leaves are
falling off the trees as II it were au-
tumn; the grass is burned up Go and
see for yourself"
1t was true. The grass, normally an
emerald sward. is brown, and dry
leaves skipped along its shiny surface,
driven by the pleasant wind
The flower beds cry aloud Of dis
asters: there are blanks and failures
everywhere. The, physic garden is q
disheartening spectacle. though inter-
esting even in misfortune
Plants Gone to Seed.
In the flower garden proper the dew
astation is just as great. The plant
have rushed to seed, and the beds have
nothing like their proper brightness.
In the glass houses the day becomes
one ceaseless round Of watering. I'VE
water everything eight times a day."
said gardener in the palm house.
