was no indication of it.. Sometimes
she smiled at Thomas Fleming; and
sometimes exchanged word or two
with Mr.. Bates. Once he leaned over
and said:
You make. me think of poem
read somewhere; now, what was the
name of it? 1 can only remember
two lines:
"'In the fell clutch of circumstance,
have not WINGED or cried aIoud!'
That's as far as can go; but
that's what you make me think Of"
She turned, smiling, and finished
the verse. tits Henley's I am the
captain of my SOUL" she said. 81
have it somewhere; l copied it once,
because 1 cared so much for it. I'll
read it to you tonight, after dinner"
Dor Bates said, heartily, and
turned away to listen to Fleming,
who was on the stand Fleming's
evidence was as straightforward as
the man himself. Yes, Smith (now
deceased) had paid him in March,
1887, the sum of $17,4OO. Of this,
$4,000 was on a personal account;
$14,400 was for a parcel of land be-
longing to the Hammond estate. The
check was made to his order; he de-
posted it in his own bank account
and Immediately drew against it a
check for $14, 400 to the order of the
Trust. Then followed a very clear
and definite statement of that money
Smith owed him; a debt which he
was unable to corroborate by his
books, for the simple reason that his
books had been burned in the great
fire of that year. Over and over, back
and forth, round and round, the
prosecution went, gaining not an
inch.

Fleming, you'll go with us? You

she must go home. you will come
out with Tom this EVENING"" she
said. Dinner is at half-past seven;
you can dress at our house; and, of
course, you must stay all night"
Bates promised, and Fleming silently
squeezed his wife's hand. Amy's
eyes spoke to him.
The joyous and beautiful day
passed; the afternoon was gay with
congratulations but the succession
of friendly calls was fatiguing. At
last she had the house to herself.
She reflected it would be well to have
a little nap, so that she might be
bright and rested for the jubilant
evening oh, that poem Mr.. Bates
wanted to see! She had forgotten
all about it; she must find it before
she went upstairs.
The diningroom was satisfactory,
with it's ten friendly chairs drawn
up about the sparkling table And
her best dress was upstairs spread
out on the bed, with her slippers and
gloves; her f1owers-Tom would
bring her her flowers! She thought
to herself she would wear them, and
then put them away with her we'd
ding bouquet that had been lying, dry
and fragrant, for all these years, with
her wedding dress and veil. Signing
with the joy of it all, she climbed
YEARLY half way upstairs; then re-
membered Mr. Bates poem again,
and went back to the library, with an
uneasy look at the hall clock She
would not get much of nap! And
the chances of the nap lessened still
more, because she could not at once
find her Commonplace Book, in

CCTUSED to insist that this is the
best of all possible worlds" re-
marked the druggist, "the
more I read the newspapers the more
I find that belief slipping. There is
so much ingratitude in the world that
man can't shake a stick at it. I was
reading hideOus story in the newspa-
perS. this morning.
IAN old woman in a small Wisconsin
town was taken to the poorhouse the
other day, and the journey broke her
heart. In her better days when she
was able to work and earn money that
woman made a business of adopting
children and giving them a chance il
life She reared three girls, and all or
them married well, and live in comfort
able homes at this hour. And not one
of the three would lift a finger to keep
the old woman from the poorhouSe.
Such a story as that makes a man won
der whether human nature isn't rem
Eant counter affair"
Before man makes up his mind to
condemn the human race because OF
such a story" said the village pa
triarch, The should be sure that the
story is true It is a notorious fact
that unreliable stories do get Into the
public print now and then, notwith-
standing the sleepless vigilance of the
editors. I have no doubt that there is
some foundation for the story, but If
pear that the three married orphans
can prove an alibi. There must have
been something wrong with that IN
fortunate old woman if the three re-
fused to help her out. 1t may be that
she made galley slaves Of them when
they were under her roof. Depend up
on it, they have good defence, but the
story would be spoiled If it were
printed We must have some regard
for art. and not spoil a good story by
digging up unpleasant details reflect
ing upon the heroine.
When I was a boy I was short OF
parents, and an old farmer named Pull

he'd give ne a chance to become presi-

100 Years Ago Today

One hundred years ago today the
battle Of Chrysler's field was fought
about 80 miles above Montreal, on the
st. Lawrence river. This battle was
fought by a detachment of the American
army under Brig. Gen. John P Boyd,
who was sent to dispense the British
at Williamsburg, and cover the descent
of boats carrying American troops on
the st. Lawrence. Col. Morrison was in
command of the British The Americans
lost about $40 men in killed and wound
e dand the British about half as many.
This defeat meant the utter failure Of
Gen. NilkinsOn's expedition against
Montreal. Immediately after Gen. Will
kinsOn recrOssed the st. Lawrence and
went into winter quarters.
