what was coming. 1t was the first time IN
III t;e meetings with Holloway that the lat
ter had ever discussed a woman. But there
was that in his tone which Detokeiicu /" le-
spect amounting to alteration.
@She has virtues, the engineer WehO oIi,
almost as if to himself that are not paIci'
,'-''t 80 tboee who do not know her private life
She has sufficient means, inherited from her
father. to keep her in tair state OF luxury
She has everything Of education ana accom-, con-,
plishmcnt that money can give 10 one "lCf
,,,o+rro1 talent. She has that heritage OF
name which gives her the entry 20 the fnoss
exclusive society Of this continent ana
abroad She has been courted and petted,
and proposed to by distinguished men, Dy
titled men, and by mere ne 'er-do-Wels; yeC,
in spite of all this, and the fact that she mas
extremely wealthy connections, ana glri
love Of life and movement, she IS a nurse 70
her aunt. and that aunt is the only pennileSS
one of her family. Eve Waters knows the
globe like Baedelier, and yet she is con-
tented to come clear back here into unire-
ouented hills. in the hope that she can give
that duerulous invalid little health ana
lin stood and looked toward the lake,
visible only in its own dim light. Every
word had stabbed him, punctured his hope,
reduced him TO earths level, and blown
his dream farther away. 1t was as II he had
built a fabric on no irmer foundation than
a colossal vanity, to have it crash down
within the moment. Moreover, 1t was as II
this quiet engineer, wishing to warn him, the
miner Of the hills, against wadlng into a
homeless morass, had deliberately pointed
ont the impossiblity Of ever winning her
love Bewildered by tumult OF thoughts,
lin stood dazed for an instant, not knowing
whether TO be thankful, TO feel insulted or
angry. He stood as dumb as if stricken. lie
could not doubt the sincerity OF the engl-
neer's intentions. He could not take UNI
brage at words uttered for his benefit. lie
was compelled to see the naked truth, no
matter what the wound.
II seemed TO him afterward that he stood
there for a long time, listening vaguely to
the whisper of the wind rising through the
pines. the distant movement OF the water IN
the lake. and the lonely call Of night birds;
also that beside him stood a kindly man,
waiting for him to recover. And then, know
inc that he had dealt harsh blow, the
kindly man spared him embarrassment by
suddenly putting out his hand and saying:
"We shall be over tomorrow, and II my
wishes. and am sure those Of Miss Waters,
will bring you luck, your fortune is already
made -,
Then the engineer turned back toward the
house. walking with his resolute stride, each
foot beating its timely sound as he mounted
the steps, the door opened, and the miner
was left in a world that had abruptly become
joyless, hopeless, and melancholy.

plomats Monday night by Secre-
tary and Mrs. Bryan in honor OF
Ambassador Bryce, caused the
secretary to issue a statement
to-day explaining the incident
In it Mr.. Bryan made public for
the first time the fact that the
question of how the "teetotaler"
custom of his house would be
received in official society. was
discussed with President Wilson
before he accepted his portifolio'
I'VE do not intend to magnify,
by mentioning it, the Importance
of the non-use of wine at the din
ner given to Ambassador Bryce,
but as the papers have made
some inaccurate references to
the matter, the facts might as
we'll be known.
This was the first dinner
which we have given to members
of the diplomatic corps, and
therefore the first time when we
came into cotlict with the social
custom of serving wine at din
ner. The seven other ambassa.
doris then in the city and their
ladies' were invited to meet Am
bassador and Mrs. Bryce, and
as all the gentlemen present
were from foreign countries,
thought it proper to explain IT,
them the reason for our failure
to conform to what seems tc
have been customary in this
matter.
believing that the issue
should be met frankly in the be-
ginning. l told them, when we
sat down to the table, that Mrs.
Bryan. and / had been teetota.
slers from our youth. as had been
our parents before US, and had
never served liquor at our table.
That when the president was
kind enough to tender me the
portfolio of state, / asked him
whether our failure to serve
wine would be any embarrass'
ment to the administration, and
that he generously left the mat
to our discretion.
/ suggested that / thought it
unfair to assume that those
coming to us from abroad would
Judge Us harshly or be unwilling
to t0lerrte the maintenance of a
traditional custom, and express.
ed the hope that our friendship
would be made so apparent to
them aud our hospitality so
cordial that they would overlook
this weakness in US, if they re-
garded it as q weakness. My
remarks were applauded by the
company. and we never spent a
more enjoyable evening.
That is all there is to the mat
