In lome de- < free, control himself; he coul<L-speak ef the marriage with regret, but with- .cut paseion; he had even alluded. In "some cases, to Hyde's family and e** pectations.

But Bram was aflame wlti indignation; frst, If the mar- v^rtage were at all doubted; second, if were supposed to be a satisfactory to any member of the Van Heeias- ' ' kirk family.

It •eemed to hare a fascination for him, «ad for more than an hour he sat •anslng, with his eyes fixed upon the iateful words. Then he rose and went to the hearth. There were a few •ticks of wood burning upon it, but they had fallen apart He put them together, and, tearing out the notice, fee laid it upon them. It meant much store to Nell than the destruction of • scrap of paper, and he stood watch- Sag !t long after It had become a film «f grayish ash. Bram would not read It at alL He "was too full of shame and trouble at the event; and the moments went as ff they moved on lead. But after tea Jhe gathered a great nosegay of nar- c jeissus and went to Isaac Cohen's. He fc'-iwwit Into the store, and she seemed "/"• ife know his footstep.

Their acquaintance had evidently 'Advanced since that anxious evening when she had urged upon Bram the ^Intelligence of the duel between Hyde and Neil Semple; for Bram gave her ; the flowers without embarrassment, And she burled their sweet face In their sweet petals, and then lifted it - with a smile at once grateful and «onfldent!al. >. Then Bram told her all the little 1 things that had grieved him, and they talked as dear companions might talk. It was not more than an hour ere Cohen came home. He looked quickly at the young people and then stood by Bram, and began to talk court eous- ^ly of passing eventa. Miriam leaned, listening, against a magnificent 4hi? 1 '""apostle's cabinet" in black oak. Against its carved and pillared back- safe- " ground, her dark drapery fell to Ip*' almost unnoticed grace; but her fair pv(-v iace and small hands, with the mass j§| ; of white narclssua in them, had a H$c. .singular and alluring beauty. She affected Bram as something sweetly supernatural might have done. It was an effort tor him to answer Cohen; he felt as If it would be impossible for him to go away. But the dock struck the hour, a=4 the shop boy began to pot up the shutters, and the old man walked to •/. the door, taking Bram with him. ".^nen Miriam, smiling her tareweii, }i passed like a shadow into the darker <f Shadows beyond; and Bram went heme, wondering to find that she had cast out of his heart hatred, malice, fretful worry and all sneharitable- CHAPTER XI. At Hyde Manor, and Bran and Miriam |£\ In Hyde Manor House, there was - that stir of preparation which indl- | cates a departure. Hyde and Kather- toe were taking a hasty meal together. V, Hyde was in full uniform, his sword his side, his cavalry cap and cloak '•'.Vi;-"On a chair near him. They both rose •= together--{Catherine bravely smiling < ^away the tears and looking exceeding- ly lovely in her blue morning gown trimmed with frilllngs of thread lace, If:;/-;and Hyde, gallant and tender, but still with the air of a man not averse to go back to life's real duty. He took {Catherine in his arms, kissed away her tears, made her many a loving promise and then, lifting his cap and eloak, left the room. Evidently he had quite recovered his health and strength, for he Bprang very easily into the saddle, and, gathering the reins in his hand, kept the restive ' animal in perfect control: A moment he stood thus, the very Meal of a fearless, chivalrous, hand­ some soldier; the next, his face soft­ ened to almost womanly tenderness, for he saw Katherlne coming hastily through the dim hall and into the clear sunshine and In her arms wns his little son. She came fearlessly to his side, aad lifted the sleeping child to him. He stooped and kissed It and then kissed again the beautiful mother; and calling happily back­ ward, "Oood-by, my love; God keep 70s, love; good-by," he gave his u ^horse his own wild will and was foVv.' soon lost to sight among the tress of the park. Katherlne stood with her ehfld ta her arms, listening to the ever fainter ' beat of hoofs. Her husband had gone back to duty, his furlough had expir­ ed, their long, leisurely, honeymoon was over. But she was neither fear­ ful nor unhappy. Hyde's friends had procured his exchange into a mart regiment. He was only going to London, and he was still her lover, te She looked forward with clear tree as |< she salt gratefully to herself. "So happy am 11 So good Is ray husband i •a dear Is my child I 80 fair and •wast Is my boms!" I Katherlae we all aot bare py had the estrangement between herself and ker parents continued a bitter or a silent one. She did not suppose they would answer the letter she had sent by the fisherman Hudde, so, immediately after her arrival at Jamaica, Katherine wrote to her mother; and, without waiting for re­ plies, she continued her letters regu­ larly from Hyde. They were to a spirit of the sweetest and frankest confidence. She asked her advice with all the faith of a child and the love of a daughter; and she sent through her those sweet messages of affection to her father, which she feared a little to offer without her mother's media­ tion. But when she had a son, and when Hyde agreed to the boy being named George, she wrote a letter to him. The latter, full of love, starred all through with pet wards, and wisely reminding him more of their own past happiness than enlarging on her pres­ ent joy, made his heart melt. He could do no business that day. He felt that he must go home and tell Lysbet, only the mother could fully under- stand and share his Joy. He gave her the letter with a smile, and then walked up and down while she read It '"Well, Joris, a beautiful letter this is. And thou has a grandson of thy own name--a little Joris. Oh, how I long to see him! Would God he was here!" The face of Joris was happy and his eyes shining; but he had not yet much to say. He walked about for an hour and listened to Lysbet, who, as she polished her silver, retold him all that Katherlne had said of her husband's love and of his goodness to her. At last he rose and went Into the garden and she watched him wan­ der from bed to bed, and stand look­ ing down at the green shoots of the early flowers. About three o'clock he came Into the house with a firm, quick step. "Lysbet, thinking I have been-- thinking of {Catherine's marriage. Better than I expected, it has turned out" "I think that Katherlne has made a good marriage--the best marriage of all the children." "Dost thou believe that her hus­ band is so kind and so prudent as she says?" "No doubt I have." "See, then, I will send Katherine her portion. It Is for her and her children. Can I trust them with it?" "Katherine is no waster, and full of nobleness is her husband. Write thou to him, and put it in his charge for Katherine and her children. And tell him in his honor thou trust en­ tirely, and I think that he will do to all things right" "Lysbet?" "What then, Jorisr "The drlnklng-cup of silver, which my father gave us at onr marriage. It was given to my great grandfather when he was mayor of Mlddleburg. His name, also, was Joris. To my grandson shall I send it?" "Oh, my Joris, much pleasure would thou give Katherlne and me also! Let the little fellow have it I will tell Katherlne. But thou, too, write her a letter; for little she will think of her fortune or of the cup if thy love thou send not with them." And Joris had done all that he pur­ posed and done it without one grudg­ ing thought or doubting word. And Hyde was not indifferent to such noble trust He fully determined to deserve it As Joris sat smoking that night he thought over his proposal, and then for the first time It struck him that the Mlddleburg cup might have a peculiar eigEificance and value to Bram. When Lysbet stt down with a little sigh of content beside him and said, "A happy night is this to us, Joris," he answered, "God is good; always better to us than we trust him for. I want to say now what I have been considering the last hour--some other cup we will send to the little Joris, for I think Bram will like to have the Mlddleburg cup best of all." "Always Bram has been promised the Gullderland cup and the server that goes with it" 'That Is the truth; but I will tell you something, Lysbet The Mlddle­ burg cup was given by the Jews of Mlddleburg to my ancestor because great favors and protection he gave them when he was mayor of the city. Bram is very often with Miriam Cohen and--" Then Joris stopped and Lysbet waited anxiously for him to finish the sentence; but he only puffed, puffed and looked thoughtfully at the bowl of his pipe. "What mean you, Joris?" "I think that he loves her." "Well?" "That he would like to marry her." "Is shs so fair?" "A beautiful face and gracious ways she has. Like her, the beloved Rachael must have been, I think. Why do you not stand with Bram as you stood with Katherlne?" "Little use it would be, Joris. To give consent in this matter would be a sacrifice refused. Be sure that Cohen will not listen to Bram; no. nor to you, nor to me, nor to Miriam. "Say to Bram, 1 am willing,' and Cohen will say to him, 'Never, never will I consent' If you keep the Jew's cup' for Bram and Miriam, always you will keep It; yes, and they that live after you, too." At the very hour Joris and Lysbet were discussing the position of their son with regard to Miriam Cohen, the question was being definitely settled at another point For Joris was oot the only person who had observed Brand's devotion to the beautiful Jew HI. Cohen had watched him with close and cautious Jealousy for many months; but he was far too wise to stimulate tore by opposition aad be did sot believe to half measures. When he defined Miriam's duty to her he meant it to be in such shape as precluded argument or uncertainty; and for this purpose delay was neces­ sary. But it happened, that, after some months of negotiation, a final and satisfactory letter had come to him by the same post as brought Katherine's letter to Joris Van Heemskirk. He read its oonjteats with a sad sat­ isfaction and then locked It away until the evening hours secured him from business interruption. Then he went to his grandchild. She looked so pretty and happy and careless, that for some time he did not like to break the spell of her rest­ ful beauty. Then he said in slow, even tones, "My child, listen to me. This summer my young kinsman Judah Belasco will come here. He comes to marry you. You will be a happy wife, my dear. He has mon­ eys and he has the power to make moneys, and he is a good young man. I have been cautious concerning that, my dear." < There was a long pause. He did not hurry her, but sat patiently wait­ ing, with his eyes fixed upon the book in her hand. "I do not want to marry, grange father. I am so young, i do not know Judah Belasco." "Ytm shall have time, my dear. It Is part of the agreement that he shall nOw live in New Yerk. "Put from your heart or fancy any other young man. Have you not thought of our neighbor, Bram Van Heemskirk?" "He Is good; he is handsome. I fear he loves me." You know not anything. If you choose a husband, or even a shoe, by their appearance, both may pinch you, my dear. Judah is of good stock. Of a good tree you may expect good fruit" Bram Van Heemskirk is also the son of a good father. Many times you have said it." "Yes, I have said it But Bram Is not of our people. My dear, will you take your own way, or will you obey the word of tho Lord?" "My father, I will keep the promise that I made you. I will do all that you wish." Cohen bowed his head solemnly and remained for some minutes after­ wards motionless. His eyes were closed, his face was as still as a paint­ ed face. Whether he was praying or remembering, Miriam knew not But solitude is the first cry of the wound­ ed heart, and she went away into it She was like a child that had been smitten and whom there was none to comfort But she never thought of disputing hef' grandfather's word, or of opposing his will. (To be continued.) DEAD MAN MAKES TROUBLI. Presence in 8plrit Form Obnoxious to His Successor. A colored family in Almagro has recently been broken up because of the nightly appearance of the wife's former husband, says the Danville (Va.) correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch. The fact that the man in question has been dead a year or two does not seem to affect in the least his desire to look upon the hap­ piness of his former helpmeet He invades the privacy of the woman's chamber, much to the annoyance of her present husband. He made one of his frequent visits the other night He was dressed entirely to white, and csme and stood at the foot of the bed. The living husband decided that the dead man had the best right to the woman's presence, and he dived I through the window, carrying the sash with him. The woman, who seems to have preferred the living to the dead, followed his example. The pair spent the night, thinly clad, un­ der the stars. I And now there will be a divorce suit the man refusing longer to live with a woman whose dead husband visits her in the night Insurance Has its Humor. An enterprising insurance agent induced an Irishman to take out an accident policy for his wife. A few days later, while conversing with a friend in his office, he was startled to see the Irishman rush in, brandishing fiercely a stout cane. "Ye rascal," hs yelled, springing toward the agent, "ye wanter cheat mer Fortunately the enraged man was disarmed and held faBt by the agent's friend, who was a powerfully built man. The Irishman, strugging to get free, shouted: "Let me git at the spalpeen. Think ov It, chargin' me folve dollars fer an acshldent ticket fer me ole woman, an' she jest broke her leg a-fallin' dewn shtalrs. Wot's the good of the ticket, anyhow?" One Child's Invocation. The five year-old daughter of a Cali­ fornia family has a habit of occasion­ ally wandering In her prayers said just before she retires for the night A few nights ago she finished "Our Father" with credit, but stopped after the opening line of "Now I lay ma down to sleep." "Go on, daughter," said bar mother. The little prayer ended "God bless father," and the rest cama after a short pause. "Well, dear, you haven't prayed for yourself," said the mother. "Oh. no! Well, then, God bless me and make me absolutely pure, Blank's baking powder!" Rothschild's Theory of Luck. The opinion of the elder Rothschild, who was certainly a most practical man, would seem at first glance to be a strong argument for the theory that after all there are "lucky" and "un­ lucky" men. He wrote to one of his sons: "Never have anything to do with an unlucky place or an unlucky man; I have seen many clever men, very clever men, who had not shoes to their feet; I never act with them; their advice sounds very well, but tbey cannot get on themselves, and It they cannot do good to themselveiw how eaa they da good to met" TH0USA9D8 Of AMXBICJJT8 FOE WESTXSH CAS ABA. "There will be thousands of Amer­ icans coming up here In the spring,'* was the remark made by a farmer from the vicinity of Langdon, North Dakota, when he arrived In Winnipeg, Manitoba, the capital of Western Can­ ada, a few days since. He was the ad­ vance guard of a large body who are following him, and he has already In­ vested in several farming sections for himself and others and purposes to take up his permanent abode In this country. He went on to say: "Hun­ dreds are coming from my district alone. I know this to be a fact for many of them are neighbors of mine. The chief topic of conversation with tho farmers is the coming Immigra­ tion in the spring. "The Impression general in the part of Dakota where I live that farmers can get from 10 to IS cents more a bushel for wheat on the American side of the line than on the Canadian has not prevented people from turning their eyes to Canada as a place to live In. They know they can get land to this country which Is every bit as fertile as that In Dakota at about one- quarter the price. It is safe to say that the exodus from Dakota into Canada this year will exceed the expectations of all Canadians."

A new word, and one of the best we have seen, is offered to the public by the English press, "oysterla"; mud with Its suggestion of hysteria it con­ notes the fear of typhoid from shell­ fish. The English oysters come most­ ly from the mouth of the Thames, and Londoners are in the midst of one of their frequent typhoid scares, and there Is a complete collapse of the oys­ ter trade.

German Cities Well Governed. The governments of German cities were, prior to the law of 1892. which Bismarck championed, notoriously corrupt through spoils of politics, but are to-day the models of efficiency and honesty. The prominent features of the law which caused their deliv­ erance are home rule, compulsory service of the citizens in municipal affairs, long tenure of office and civil service. Tea In Dalmstls.

"The railroads have been before the senate on their knees prayiug and praying and praying," said Uncle Joe In his preacher-like tones, and then, stopping a moment and looking about ihe house, he concluded to finish with an expression that might better ap­ peal to the understanding of many members and added: "And, gentlemen, let us call their band."
