Helen flushed. If Mrs. Dalton
thought that was hospitality. she
thought it was exceedingly rude.
In few moments Mr.. Dalton
brought in the two glasses, and drew
up a little table to place them on.

her glass remained untouched.

Vigorous objection to the demand

three days, were given all information,

advised to take the New York resuil-

Instead they published a voluminous

Under the authority granted by an act
OF the. general assembly of Virginia,
passed at its last session. supervisors of
counties and councils Of cities and
towns are granted authority to appro-
pirate public funds for the purpose of
defraying 1.-The railroad fares of Con-
