But it was enough-- he said no more,, while madame, go­ ing a shade paler as.she watched the two young men, aastenod to ciose the interview. ' When Reggie left things were only what he had expected. Madame ab- solutely refused her consent, and de­ clined to see him at Chalfont again, so far losing her temper as to utter innuendoes and insults, which she could say with impunity, as a woman, but which would certainly have brought Reggie's whip across the shoulders of her adored son. Reggie, for his part, courteously re­ peated that the engagement was a fact, and would be known all over Rever- ton; he was sorry for her decision, but it would alter nothing, only cause, a little delay. Then, after a few words with Mollie,-he reluctantly tore him­ self away, and she heard the gate clang behind him and watched him down the road until she was blinded by her tears. you h could his dep <truc pale as he and he gave (a low whistle of Whatever he thought he wi® too wise to make his sweetheart tows uncomfortable than she already was. But she had to promise that on no account would she even listen to Henri, against whom Reggie's senti­ ments were Car from peaceful, and that if matters became worse she would take refUge at the White house, ffhltlter his mother returned in yeek's time. And then Kate came run­ ning back to announce her aunt's re- torn. • Reggie!" ejaculated Mollie, ris­ ing, and turning very pink.

"I know," she answered, with tremb- Wng lips. "You will take her away." "But she tells me she cannot be happy withput you, so we shall have to manage for yon to come, too," he continued. /"Now if you think that will be Jolly, and we shall be the best hwjher and sister going, never Jeal- *#us of each other, signify the --•mm In the usual manner by a kiss." he was more touched than he liked to •how when the little girl threw her arms round his neck in a transport of relief, happily unconscious of the ob staclep that might come in their way. It was this group that madame, fol- lowed by her son, came in sight of; great was her wrath. Nor was It to, ary way mollified when Mr. An rf&uther advanced politely, and, after tf* usual reelings,. informed her that Miss I/Rstrange had promised to be his wife, and he trusted that he should have her consent; he was sure of that of the trustees, who were old friends his father's. Madame was verj i*uave at first, though Molile knew the effort it must have cost her. She un- . Jf"t00d the firmly-shut mouth, the vIMalf-opened eyes; but, suave or not, J fre managpd to convey plainly her de- I «sion. She not only could, not sane- « the engagement, but Miss X* Estrange must be considered quite free. "I don't wish to be free," said Mollie •odly, over his shoulder. "I have given '.

What can I do foi you?" said a sleepy voice, as Mollie roused herself from the slumber into which she had fallen by the side of the bed. "Kittle, it is striking 12 by the hall clock; I had no idea it was so late! I will go down to the drawing room and get the cloves; we left them there, and they may ease the pain a little." Kate sat up in bed, looking as mis­ erable as a child with teeth ache can look, and Mollie slipped off for the cloves, closing the door softly behind her. It was Easter eve once more; not balmy and soft like last time, but cola and frosty, witn a cruel east wind howling round the house, like the night two years ago when Leonard Barlowe had so mysteriously met his death. The months that had passed had been full of trouble and ahciety to Mollie L'Estrange, and she looked paler and thinner; but the gray eyes were as fearless and sweeter than ever, for the trials had been bravely borne, and if she could not quite love her enemies, she had at least endeavored to follow that splendid precept and re­ turn good for. evil., Henri had been away for some weeks now; at first much to her relief, but latterly she had almost wished him back, for his mother's sake. Ever since his departure she had seemed con­ sumed with restlessness, growing daily more morose and gloomy, and break ing into fits of passion for the merest trifle, while she watched Mollie with suspicious eyes, never allowing her to see the Anstruthers, through whom alone she could hear from Reggie, for both knew that the ordinary post would not be safe. Stealing quieUy down toe dark stairs, Mollie gained the drawingroom, and, possessing herself of the bottle of cloves, was returning, when as she got to the door she saw a faint light at the top of the stairs. Who was abroad in the house this night of all others, when no servant would stir alone, when they vowed that the ghost of Mr. Barlowe walked in his haunts and a light had been seen in his study? Drawing back against the heavy plush curtains in the hall, she watched with beating heart as it came glimmer­ ing nearer, not exactly frightened, but with a ourious awe and dre$d, a feel­ ing that something was going to hap­ pen. A moment later, and madame-- a lamp in her hand, a str&nge, dazed glitter in her great blatk eyes--swept noiselessly past her and went straight to the study. , The girl's first thought was to steal up stairs again, her next to creep across the dark hall after madame, and look in at the half-open door, and so, unthinkingly, she witnessed a sight 'that froze the blood in her veins ano that she never forgot For had she followed her first impulse and gone upstairs, neither she nor Kate would have been alive when d&ylight dawned that Easter day. On such slight things as this do greaj. events hang! Madame put the lamp on h table close by, and then stole with cat-like step to the back of the chair before the writing table, where the detectives said that Mr. Barlowe must have been sitting asleep at the time of the at­ tack. Suddenly she raised her arms, holding them as if she had some heavy weapon la them, and went through the motion twice of bringing it down with terrific force on the back of some one's head. It waa, awful to see her face as she stood there, wild, fierce, watchful, her features working convulsively as she eyed the empty chair as if it were oc­ cupied, her dark hair streaming down the light dressing gown she wore, her breath coming In heavy gasps. ' After a minute she began muttering to her­ self, and leaned over as if to examine what was in the chair; then she went to the table and turned over the papers in a strange, troubled manner, her eye ev®r returning to that empty chair. "It is only what you deserve--what you deserve!" she muttered in a harsh, strained voice, addressing the chair. "You are a hard, bad man. I begged to you for' mercy for my child--my •on, my beloved--and you only laugh­ ed. What if he did forge your name? It was not for much. You are rolling in wealth your wretched wife's money --and we are poor, and Henri is young and extravagant But you shall not punish him. I helped you In the past » , . r JSSfcp***- mat I her* taken Unlaw into toy ova hands. I would die a thousand times rather than that you should expose my boy. Now you cannot say a word, and I take the proofs of his guilt and burn them!" She went through the motions-- phantomwise, yet strangely real--oi taking papere and thrusting them into the grate, apparently holding them down with the weapon she thought she held, doing it all in a strange, dull calm, which her twitching face belied. For some minutes she crouched over the empty grate moaning and wring­ ing her hands; then, when she evi­ dently thought the papers and weapons destroyed, she rose, appeared to drag what was on the chair to the window --which she threw wide open--and, before Mollie could move, she came swiftly out of the room, and, lamp in hand, went towards the kitchen. To describe the feelings of the hor­ ror-stricken girl watching her would be impossible'. As one act aftef'" an­ other of this terrible drama was played out before her she felt powerless to mbve, almost to think. All her senses were bound up in the effort to keep her trembling knees from giving way under her, for well she knew that to make the leart sound might cost her her life! No need to, ask again who killed Leonard barlowe. She had been how it was done; she had seen every­ thing--knew it was by his own sister's hand that the blow was struck. Yet frightened as she was Mollie's courage did not desert her. She de-* termined to see what took this wretch­ ed womah, whom she felt persuaded was mad, to the kitchen; so, with chat­ tering teeth, she gathered her skirts together, and crept silently through the d^irk passages after her. The lamplight guided her to the but­ ler's pantry, and there stood madame, holding her hands under a tap which she had not turned on, and muttering incessantly to herself. As she wrung the imaginary water off them and rubbed them on her skirt, it occurred to Mollie, with a cold chill of fear, that she was action by action following out Just what she must have- done that terrible night--that it was she whom the servants ,took for a ghost, who had frightened Kate by brushing past her in the dark. Suddenly madame's glance fell upon some knives lying on a table, and a gleam like fire flashed into her eyes, a gleam that had neither reason nor sanity in it, only cunning and fierce exultation. "iWhy not kill, them both?" she mut­ tered, standing still with a meditative look. "They are no use to Henri; the girl will not marry him; the child had better follow her father. Yes, yes; that will be best!" (To be continued.) To 1*urtfy Greater JVetou yorKg Bishop Henry IX.

Suetoty Caanot Shirk Its Responsibility • for Criminals. Now, of course it is the easiest thing in the world to pick out indi­ vidual cases where this highly effect­ ive and economical plan would seem Justifiable, but the obstacle which must everlastingly keep all such ob­ stacles out in the realm of purely vis­ ionary and impossible propositions is the fact that no man, or group of men --no, nor t)iat of angels, probably-- could ever be trusted to decide that such and such a person could not be reformed, but must die. There is the crux of the whole matter. That little word "very" which is supposed to de­ scribe the kind of vicious and crimi­ nal persons who are to be "gently and painlessly" assisted out of this world, contains the whole range of subtle, unknown and unfathomable qualities of character upon whose possibilities no human wisdom is competent to pass the final word. With Dr. McKim de­ claring, for example, that John Jones, aged thirty, whom he has carefully examined,, is incorrigible and should be executed, and John Jones' mother, who,' presumably, also knows some­ thing about him, declaring that there is that within the boy which, bad as he is, can and may reclaim him to useful manhood--where Is the Judge or jury that would venture to pass upon the awful issue? Oh, no!.

One of the strangest is that called the Early Rising Associa­ tion, which recently held its annua! meeting in London. The organization adopteu resolutions declaring that ear­ ly rising was conducive to "healthy, enjoyment and longevity, which .are longer words than those used in the nursery rhyme, although there is no promise of wealth or wisdom. No defi­ nite action was taken in regard to the hour at which persons snouia rise. The general opinion was that sunrise was the proper time, although that made the hours of rising earlier in summed than in Winter. It would have been adopted, probably, had it not been that by the operation of the rule some peo­ ple could stay in bed later than 6 o'clock in the winter. The' general opinidn was that that was entirely too late to get up. Rising at sunrise in summer would mean going to bed at about 8 o'clock in order to get the traditional eight hours of sleep before getting out of bed at 4. This would seem a hardship to most people. It would mean deprivation of those pleasures that can be enjoyed only In the evening. However, enjoyment is purely a matter Of taste, as Sam Wel- er said.--Chicago Tribune.

A month ago< the actor's foot was painfully wounded in the duel scene of "Ham­ let," while he was playing at the Gar­ den Theater, New York. A falling sword struck the member and inter­ rupted the play for a time. Mr. Soth­ ern appeared a few times thereafter, but was forced to abandon his work.

It consisted of 121 clergy­ men and 80 laymen--10 of whom were lords and 20 commoners--together with four clerical and two lay commis­ sioners from the Church of Scotland. Thirty-five of those whose names were contained in the ordinance calling: the Assembly, whioh was dated June 12, 1C43, never appeared at the discussion, one or two of them having died about the time of the first meeting, and the others fearing the displeasure of the king. To supply the pipe of these ab­ sentees, some additional members, called the superadded divines, were summoned to attend. This notable assembly held its first meeting on July 1, 1643, and continued to sit till Feb^ ruary 22, 1649, during which time it met 1,163 times./ Its most important work was concluded long before. The Presbyterians formed a large majority, and exercised a corresponding influ<- ence. In doctrine the members were almost unanimous; but on the subject Of church government opinions ex­ tremely opposite were maintained with keenness, especially on the question touching the sphere and limits of the civil power in matters ecclesiastical, The principal fruits of its deliberation^ were the Directory of Public Worship, the Confession of Faith, the Shorter Catechism,, and the Larger Catechianj.

One of the most curious of duels^ says Tit- Bits, was the balloon duel in France^ which was fought In 1808. The com­ batants were M, de Grandpre and M. le Pique, who had quarreled--about a lady, of course. .This lady was one Mile. Tlrevit, an act Ass at the Imperi­ al Opera. On the appointed day M. de Grandpre entered the car of one bal­ loon, with his second, and M. le Pique, with his second, mounted the other in the Garden of the Tuileries, before an immense crowd of admiring spectators. When all was ready the ropes were cut, and the balloons shot upward for a dis­ tance of about half a mile above the earth. The wind being light, they were able to keep the distance of about eighty yards between each other, with which they started. On reaching the • Igreed altitude the signal was given to fire, M. le Pique missed, but M. de Grandpre*s ball went through the silk of the other balloon, which immedi­ ately collapsed. The car descended with frightful velocity, and both M. le Pique and his second were dashed to pieces. The balloon of the victor con­ tinued to ascend, and M. de Grandpre came back to earth some leagues from Paris. * The Ma4 Dog Bugaboo, What the newspapers so essentially report as cases of "hydrophobia" are, in reality, nothing more nor less than instances of people who have been bitten by dogs and frightened into hysterical conditions in which they in­ voluntarily reproduce all the supposed symptoms of "hydrophobia." It is a pity that our newspaper editors can­ not have a more careful regard for the feelings of women during the summer months and agree to suppress the re­ ports of cases supposed to be "hydro­ phobia." They make the public mind nervous, and do more to spread the silly notion of a belief in "hydropho­ bia" than anything else. Women have had their feelings played upon long enough by this foolish notion of *'hy- drophobia," and enough unnecessary suffering has been inflicted upon the dog, who is often killed for pothing but a popular fallacy. It is high time that common sense shoujd rule; that we should believe the fact that there is no such thing as "hydrophobia," and rid ourselves of this bugaboo of the mad dog.
