Tfe Lovers' Meeting.
LUCENT! was ia an erenlnjr j?cctrn
of a white filmlness tbat re
vealed -with modest truth the
" jrracious lines of the slender.
lisome form. A deeper rose blossom
il warmly In her cheeks, the tender
bow of the lips was slhrhtly parted t
a tremulous smile of rapture. On the
man. too. a sjh:i was laid, like unto
hers, yet unlike, for where she knew
niru in tb fir?t Instant Us memorj
did not stir as jet, though the exqui
tite chrrm of lur there thrilled him
with lonrinrs aew and masterful.
The voluminous oie of Blount, mak
ing the introductions, freetl the twain,
in pnrt nt least, from the enchant
ment fallen upon them.
Wninwright mannced arcfully to be
Ik-sMc the irl as the jreteral exodus
was berrun. lie was filled with an un
rcasoTi'i! indignation that wholly ob
scured his sense of humor as he heard
the dialogue between Dr. Forbes and
Jlrs. Blount as they passed on their
, way toward the door,
i "Your daughter is a dairty creature,
'rs. 1'lountJ the physician was say
Iiig with enthusiasm.
Mrs. lUount sv.ept an approving look
ovcr her own majestic frame.
4 ' Yes. All our family are just like
that."
Keally. the woman is indecentr
was Wninwright's angry thought.
Come on. Cortland,". Forbes called
over his tbouluer af he reached the
.iway. Walnwright turned again
to the girl beside him. The others
were all out of the roorj now. and
Fhe looked up at him with a little
Kniile, .so witful that it set his pulse3
liounding in a wild longing to comfort
bi-r why, for what, he knew not.
"Shall we go now?" she asked tim
idly. "Yes no that is, wait, just a mo
ment." Then, as she fared him with
a certain shrinkiEg bravery born of
long yearning, their eyes net and held
In a lingering look that stirred each to
the deeps. -And. in that look, the
man's memory stirred and leaped to
lif-.
Amazement crept Into the lines of
liis face, and awe dowed in his pierc
ing ejression. The girl stood rigid,
pale from stress, waiting patiently of
Ixvly. with an inflnite impatience of
the heart.
"I I can't be mistaken," Wain
wrlht murmured. Ilis voice grew,
firmer, vibrant with convi-.-tion. subtly
c-a resting: "Surely it's the same little
girl. Oh. surely it's my little savior of
the Chicago street, isn't it? Tell me!
Hut I kuowT' Tiie final words rang
triumphantly, though uttered so softly.
The girl's words came falteringly, for
her heart raced with happiness.
"Then you you remember me?"
Impulsively TVairiwrigLt ut out his
hands. With equal irupuNiveuess Lu
cpiib laid her slim fingers within bis,
warm clasp.
"Kemember you?" he cried, with a
Invgh of sheer Joy. "Well, yes, I think I

Th words sounded a melody of bliss
in the depths of the girl Ueir.g.
"After all these years!" lie breathed
The rigidity of her pose relaxed.
"Yes. after all these years." he half
whispered. "II is wonderful wonder-
fiiir'
"Yes." she agreed simply, nor dared
to lift her eyes to mc?t the warm re
gard that reached to her hirart.
"Not wonderful that I should remem
ber you," the man explained inanely,
juite unaware of his words in contem
plation of her loveliness. "Only won
derful that we should at last meet
raiii like this."
he spoke sedately enough, though
with a happy quaver in 1be mnsie of
her voice.
"They will be wfJting. 'Vl-'e must go."
But the glamour was still on the
mm. and he rpolie igali, bi tone
full of a reverent tenderness:
"U'hat a princess you've grown to

The rirl turue-1 away resolutely,

H. K. Fly company.
The days that followed this first
meeting were halcyon ones for the lov
ersfor lovers they were. Iovers they
had been. In a fanciful, dreamy, alto
gether extravagant fashion, since the
few seconds together In Chicago years
ago, with never a word exchanged be
tween them.
Bovers they were of a different sort,
from the instant of the association
brought about by the machinations of
the Master Mind. There was never
any tiniest suggestion of doubt on the
part of either. The love that had been
no more than a romantic chimera
was sprung into full, glorious life the
single reality in the nuiverse. the be
ginning nd the end of all things.
Little by little Walnwright, self con
ious. fearful as never before, dared
to profess his adoration. And. by so
much as be dared to speak, the shyly
dared to listen, until at last the su
preme confession ct them brimming
with ecstasy. For once. It seemed that
there was no obstacle to prevent the
smooth running of the course of true
love. The Blounts, concisely advised
by Andrew, welcomed Waiuwright as
a suitor for Bucene's hand. For the
rest the young man was his own mas
ter, the possessor of an ample fortune.
There was nothing to occasion delay,
and. as oou as a sufficient trousseau
could be assembled, the marriage took
place.
After a heavenly honeymoon season,
the bride and groom established them
selves joyously in a country place
near New York, with the admirable
Andrew in charge of a considerable
Ktaff of servants. The arrangement
was satisfactory to the Blounts. as
they were invited to a Ions visit with
their daughter and sou-In-law, before
leaving for their home in the west.
Of the various persons concerned in
this strange menage Walnwright was
most wholesomely happy, though even
Ids happiness was qualified. Yet the
element of peril.' the threat of Imper-manen"-e
which be faced, gave even
an added zest to the delights of love.
That which menaced him was the fa
miliar dread of wle mysterious ven
geance to be visited upon him. but this
dread was swollen to dimensions new
ly ominous. It was the very morning
following the wedding, in a remote ho
tel, whither the bridal pair had gone
secretly lest any oue know their where
abouts, that the blow fell.
As Waiuwright passed along the hull
way of their suit he perceived some
thing white under the outer door. On
examining this be found it to Ik? an
envelope lnaring n tyewrit;en adJress
to himself. Something in the look of
the unexpected missive sickened the
man. nauseated him with nervous ap
prehension of disaster. And his emo
tion was. indeed, justified, for on open
ing the euvcloie he plucked forth from
it a red card.
The day of doom, then, was near at
band.
It" took all the lover's strength of will
to hide from his bride the shock he
had sustained, but somehow he car
ried the effort through to success, and
Lucene had no suspicion that all was
not well with the man she so wor
shiped. But. at once on his return
from the wedding journey, Waiuwright
summoned Marshall, the Pinke-rton
agent, and directed the detective to
use every resource In an endeavor to
discover the mysterious- foe.
Nevertheless he was happy in his
life, happy beyond aught that he had
ever conceived as possible, for the love
between him and his wife was a er
fect love. The vengeance that threat
ened him was not one to make a brave
man weaken, for it was undeserved.
He had no sin on his conscience. He
could hold fast to his happiness un
dismayed. It was otherwise with Lucene. The
burden of gnilt drained her forces.
She had pleaded with Andrew in vain
for the privilege of open confession, of
the whole truth concerning ner past
life, to Ler husband. Such candor had
beeu the in?tinct of her innocence, and
that-.instiuct "was never slain, though
choked to silence by the siecious
sophLstries of the Master Mind. He
succeeded, however, in convincing her
sujierflcially that perfect frankness to
Ler husband would reie!. would drive
the lover from her arms.
If Waiuwright was the one most
happy in wholegomg wise it was the
Masler lind himself who found aa
unholy happiness in the bizarre situa
tion that he had contrived so cunning
ly for the ultimate accomplishment of
his revenge. Thus far in truth hi.s
success had been unequivocal. There
had been no failure anywhere in the
processes he had evolved for the con
summation of his revenge against the
man be hated.
In the drawing room of the Waln
wright mansion Blount was pacing to
and fro somewhat nervously, brooding
over many things and wondering
mightily as to-when he should be per
mitted to return to the tranquil pleas
ures of Laramie, Wyo.. where he knew
not fear and where he was resioeted
of all men. Mrs. Blount and Luceue
sat near each other by the windows,
looking out over the fast darkening
landscape. But presently Mrs. Blount
turned to her husband.
"My goodness. John:" she exclaimed
reproachfully. "I do wish son-in-law
would hurry up. Why, I'm so horri
bly huugry I'm fading away to a
shadow."
Blount halted.
"You really hrngry, mother?" he de
manded. "Hungry, mother?" she cried. "Well.
I guess yes! Why, I ain't had a mouth
ful since diu lunch. And I didn't
think much of that if you ask me so
there! Queer old soup!"
"You had some fried smelts liesides
the soup." the husband reminded her.
Lucene. also, turned toward the two
and smiled demurely.
"And you had three lamb chops,
hreaded."
"And some creamed potatoes," Blount
added. .
Lucene nodded assent.
"Yes. and some fruit salad."
"And three pieces of punkin pie,"
quoth the husband.

Lovers They Were.
"And a pot of chocolate.'' declared
the mistress of the house, laughing
outright.
"Dearie me." Mrs. B'.oimt faid huf
fily, facing the young wife. "To hear
you talk anybody M think you be
grudged me enough food to keep body
and skirt together."
Tarker, whom Andrew had brought
on to the new establishment, appeared
with the announcement that dinner
Fas served.
Mrs. Blount bolted in th? direction
of the dining room. But the westerner
turned courteously to his hostess.
"Come on, Lucene." he sail kindly.
The distressed girl, however, refused
with a shake of the head.
"You go, please." she directed. "I
prefer to wait for Cortland. He's in
the library talking imlitics with his
campaign secretary, but be must come
soon."
"With Mr. Marshall, eh? And does
he think he's going to be elected?"
Lucene forgot her trouble for a mo
ment In her interest over the political
fortunes of the man she loved, as
Blount had hoped she might.
"He's not sure," she replied animat
edly. "Mistress of the executive mansion
at Albany !" Blount sai l half banter
ingly. "Hum! Pretty soft for you if
he pulls it off, ch, daughter?"
Lucene laughed happily.
"Go to dinner." she repeated. "I
think 111 go and hurry Cortland up."
Blount went his way obediently
since he saw that such was her pref
erence. The dilatory husband made
his appearance to be greeted with an
exclamation of pleasure by his wife.
"I was waiting for you. Cortland."
she said fondly. "I couldn't bear the
idea of going iu without you. for I was
worried. You must not work so hard.
You'll get sick."
"Nonsense."' be answered gayly. 'Tm
as strong as an ox." He stooped and
raised her to hi.? side, drew her close
and the lips of the two met in a ten
der caress.
"Bat even oxen get sick sometimes, I
suppose." . " lAicene said, with a pouL
"Anyhow, we must go m to dinner.
You must hive food for work, like the
Leasts of the field, you dear. bi. silly

tent in her voice.

man!" be said affectionately.
Of a sudden be released her, put her
from him. to her hurt surprise. "That
poem," he muttered, and picked up a
book , from the nearby table, with
which he returned to Lucene. "Do you
know. I've found "some verses here that
might have been written for you and
me. Somehow it seems that one takes
to poetry naturally when in love.
Listen, dearest, to this ftanza:
"I have led l;sr home, try love,
My only friend:
There i none like her nnr?:"
A kis3 made sweet cacura in the
rhythm of the verse.
Then be read on:
"And never so warmly ran my blood.
And Fweetly on and on
Calming itself
The soft palm of the girl on his lips
brought the reading to an end.
"Oh, please, please you mustn't
you mustn't!" The low voice was
pleading.
"Why not?" Waiuwright demanded,
greatb' surprised by this insistence, a
little grieved.
"Oh. if you only knew! If you only
knew!" The words came waiiing. As
she uttered them. Lucene sprang from
him and turned her face aside.
"See here, dearest." Waiuwright ex
claimed, in much distress over her sud
den dejection. "You're not not wor
rying over anything, are you?'
"There's nothing the matter nothing
whatever. Only sometimes I I'm so
happy that I just know it can't possi
bly last."
Waiuwright smiled gently.
"You mean you're so Lappy that
you're troubled?"
"Y'es," she said, but she did not yet
lift her eyes to his.
"And that's all?"
"Yes. that's all." Still the eyes re
mained downcast.

L. A. Gibson, teacher of the Rock
Bluffs school, called on us Saturday.
John B. Furay, U. S. postoffice de
tective and special agent, was down
here Thursday.
Hon. H. F. Houseman of Chicago,
an old Wisconsin friend, paid us a
visit and spent Sunday here.
George Matteson of South Bend
was in Tuesday and gave us some fur
ther particulars of the P. O. robbery.
Prof. Martindale, county superin
tendent, called Monday. He has been
holding his monthly examinations
here.
Master George Spurlock of this city
was elected one of the pages in the
legi: k ture. He will make an excellent
one.
We neglected to make mention in
our last issue of the death of the in
fant child of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Mar
this, which took place the morning of
the 26th, the funeral being on Friday
afternoon. Rev. Mr. Burgess was the
officiating clergyman.
We neglected to make mention last
veck of the departure of Dick O'Neil
from Plattsmouth and the employ of
Mr. Carruth. He goes, we believe, to
Colorado. Dick was a first-class
workman, being one of the finest en
gravers we have seen for many a day,
and his sociability won him many
friends who will all wish him success
in his new home. His place is filled
by a Mr. Toogood.
Mr. Farmer, the man who was ad
judged insane by the commissioners of
insanity last week, was taken up to
Lincoln Monday to the insane asylum,
where his case can receive proper
treatment , and it is hoped he will
toon recover. Some talk of resistance
was made, we understand, to his being
sent there, which was extremely fool
ish under the circumstances, as such
cases need the skillful nursing and
care that can best be obtained at the
asylum and which his means or that
of his famliy or the chance help of
outsiders was totally inadequate to
give, and without which his presence
was becoming dangerous to the com
munity.
From South Bend: Quite a spell of
weather; business unusually dull dur
ir.g the past week, except with that
Iowa saloonkeeper, who is certainly
the most degraded piece of humanity
that ever came to South Bend. We
did not intend to be so personal in this
matter, but when a man keeps such a
"hell-hole" it is a crime to be silent.
From reliable authority we under
standstand that unless he stops that
"gambling business," that midnight
chin music, his saloon will be one of
the things of the past.
A fine blooded dog, owned by H. J.
Streight was recently poisoned. Sus
picion rests upon Cain; 'cause why?
(Mc) Cain was named after Able.
A few days ago a professional c. p.
was about town, noting down points
and playing euchre, and taking in the
boys. Having failed in one or two in
stances, he resolved upon a more ex
peditious plan that of robbing some
business house. Attempts were made
upon Streight's house, but failed. He
next tried Chas. Pinkham's back door, !
leading to the store. Here he was sue-'
cessful, and entering, he went
through the mails, literally raping
them, and obtained a registered letter j
containing ?20. He then clothed him-;
