«& "But he does not love you, and I do!‘ cried the young man, passionately. _ "Love!" she exclaimed. "Do you talk of love? What have we in our world to do with love! No, no, my lord! If you love me, be my friend while that may be. Soon I shall be his wife, and then I must not see you again. It wauld â€"would be wrong." "But why should you be his wife if you do not wish?" he eageriy deimanded. "I mdst do as my parents wish," she replied, in a low tone. * This conversation took place a few days before the nh{ set for the wedding. The next onm renewed; and Rockinghan, em by his sucsess in at last -rklng of his love, pressed his suit with ail his force, which was not so much in itself; but under her skillful guidance had the appearance of being a great doal. 2 The spectatora watch Aubrey uqoq_nuv. to m mt e o e The spectatora watched and wondered. Aubrey seemed not to wee. The days fled by, ard the day of the wedding came. The whole social wotld had been invited; and no one was likely to be absent, since it was well known that Lord Aubrey had given carte blanche to have cvfl;'t{h. as It should be. The cuthedral was pmeked by a not: able pbhri.g.":hmo who had been inâ€" vited were early to seeure their wouts beyoud the silken lins; and the outside public filled all that remained empty of the vast edifice. es C s e Lord Aubrey waited in the dean‘s room, his groomamen with him.

The groomsmen lookâ€" ed at each other with glances of relief. "Lady Gertrude has come!" they murâ€" | mured. No, it was Lord Morsham only. . He was white and staring. "Aubrey, Aubrey!" he cried, "for you." He handed him a white, scented noto, direeted in the peculiar slanting handâ€" writing of Lady Gertrude. Lord Aubrey asked for permission to read it, with as much composure as if the event were the | most ordinary one. The spectators could hardly command themselved to respond. He opened it and read carefully, and without the change of a muscle. ‘Those who eagerly watched his face could make of it. When he read it through :o:.md it quietly, and said, in a calm l voice : "Gentlemen, I am sorry to have put you to so much trouble, Thete will be no wedding. Lady Gertrude has decided to marry the Earl of Rockingham. 1 trust you will all join me in wishing her a happy life." "It was without my knowledge," cried Lord Moreham. "She eloped with him a few minutes ago." Lord Aubrey shrugged his shoulders. He had not said anything of an elopeâ€" ment. However, it was out, and it was not imany minutes before the news had spread through the vast throng in the eathedral. Lord Aubrey went home as quickly as possible, and that evening reâ€" turned to Aubrey. It was whispered afterward that he had not been unprepared for the sudden change of mind. His groomsimen told how composed he was all the while; and everybody recalled how patiently . he had borne with Lady Gertrude‘s slights. Everybody wondered what had been in the note he had received. It would not have helped them _ much if they had known. It read: "Lord Aubrey,â€"â€"With the belp of the | "*~* Earl of Rockingham, whoso countess 1 shall ‘t:“withi: six hours, I am able to orgy qufits. ou may reciate how something of my faelingn‘v‘v’gen the formâ€" 'THE er wedding was interrupted."

When they all saw what they had been doing prices collapsec before the market opened. Russian cloth is dearer ow ng to the rise in the price of wool. The strongâ€" est cloth is made in the Simbrisk and . Kazan provinces and the best textiles in Ekaterinburg. The cloth trade is Kartly demoralized throuxl‘: the chief uyer being the "Inten ntzvo," or Government supply department which furnishes for the army, the railway staff, and the police. A sensatorial inquiry into its methods that has been proceeding for the past year proves it honeycombed with corrupâ€" tion. The scandal is felt at the Novâ€" gorod fair. This i; the third year that many of the cloth mukers have had to wait for their money from the Government pending the Senatorial inquiry. Some of them have been fined $50,000 for delivery behind contract date and simâ€" Ned e Et C â€" tank! ilar irregularities. Five factories have gone into liquidation, with Governâ€" ment fines as their largest debts. Others are borrowing money from the banks at 9 per cent. on the security of the Government receipt for the goods delivered. The panic in the supply department of the Government has arrested nearâ€" ly all new business from that quarter. YÂ¥et business conditions in general are so sound just now in the country that in spite of this drawback proâ€" duction is improving. â€" The winter market for cloth is good. The only manufacturers who have reduced their output are the five engaged on Govâ€" ermnment orders who had to liquidate owing to fines. Already the fair is benefiting by the assured good harvest in the majority of the prévinces of European Russia Comvicts Support Themselves and Sometimes Their Families.

When there are severâ€" al in together a teacher is obtained from outside and lessons are given reâ€" gularly. _ In the offices a record of each prisonâ€" er is kept during his stay. This serves to show whether the convict is irompt to obey the officials, whether he shows affection for his parents and relatives, whether he writes letters home and wheâ€" ther he makes progress or not in his studies. The main building at Sugamo is deâ€" signed in the form of a dumbbell, the two ends being divided into five ray stars. From the central watch stand the warder can see along the whole of the rays, which comprise 300 cells. And what cells! Think of it twenty feet high and double windowed. The convicts are housed in groups. In a cell of eight matsâ€"all rooms in Japan are measured by matsâ€"twelve conviets are accommodated. The floor is covered with mushiro or soft matting and on this the men‘s bedding is spread when they aroâ€"ready to turn in. Everyâ€" thing is spotlessly clean. ‘‘The chief warder stopped before a door at the extreme end of the corridor, and after trying a dozen keys succeed in throwing it open," writes a visitor. ""With some misgivings I entered. The room would have gladdened the heart of an amateur photographer. Not a single ray of light penetrated its walls. It was ventilated by means of small tubes that ran through the cement in such a way that they did not admit light. "*‘There are three forms of chobatsu (punishment) for insubordination,‘ said tge warder. ‘The first is confinement in an empty room, the offender being comâ€" pelled to sit on a mat without moving or speaking from morning till night. The second form is confinement in a similar room slightly darkened. _ The third and most severe is confinement in this totally dark room, the maximum punishment being five days.

Only one man reminded me of convicts I had seen in England. He was short in stature, the eyes were small and oblique, the forehead narrow and receding, the ears large and jowl flabâ€" by. His crime was manslaughter. "He was the chief actor in a drama of jealousy that was played to a fatal fin ish in one of the hovels of Tokio‘s East End. A faithless wife, a hypocritical friend, a surprise, and in the narrow hovel a fight to the death had been waged, the guilty wife the only witness. He did not look up as I passed him, this humble Othello. With marvellous dexterity he was fashioning in bamboo an angel with outstretched wings.

A skilled worker will make twenty sen a day, eight being his own again. Some of these men actually support their famâ€" ilies on what they earn in prison! As you know, the average coolie can live on fifty sea a month.‘ "It was natural that after parading this paradise I should doubt if Japan‘s treatment of her criminals led to a deâ€" crease in crime,"" concluded the visitor.
