carelessly with one. hand, while she
watched tho retreating figure.
In a very short tlmo, Gregory found
himself alono In tho parlor. Abbott
nnd Clinton had withdrawn ratlier
awkwardly, Mrs. Gregory had melted
nway unobtrusively, and Fran, last of
all, had given tho piano a final bang,
and darted out of tho house.
Gregory Btood pale and miserable.
It seemed as if all tho world had de
serted him. Tho feature without
Graco would bo aa dreary as now
seemed his past with Fran's mother.
He Buffered horribly. Waa suffering
all that lifo had left for him? Per
haps ho was reaping but Is thero no
ond to the harvest? Ono sows in bo
brief a tlmo; is the garnering eternal?
A bell rang, but ho was not curious.
Voices sounded at tho front door, foot
stops passed, then silence once moro
silence and despair. Gregory wont to
the open window, nnd leaned hoavlly
on tho sill, taking groat breaths, star
ing dully.
Footsteps were heard again. They
wore near by. Thoy stopped nt the
door thoy were hers. Gregory start
ed up with a low cry of reanimated
hope. Whatever happened ho was
about to boo Grayo Nolr orico more.
CHAPTER XIX.
Tho rirst Victory.
When Graco re-entered tho pat lor,
to find HamJUon Gregory alone, her
eyes were full of reproach without
tenderness. Ab sho came straight
toward him, an open lettor In her
hand, his body grow oroct, and his
brown eyes, losing their glazed light,
burned from tho dopthH. r
"Read It," Graco said, in n thin,
brittle voice. ,
In taking tho lotter, Gregory touched
her hnnd. With recaptured alertness,
ho hold the missive to tho light, nnd
read:
"My Dear Miss Nolr:
"This is to omclally otter you tho

store, now that Hamljton Gregory has
decided to make Fran his secretary.

everything will bo arranged to yoiir
satisfaction. I am,
ltOmoHJULlNTON."
Gregory looked up, and marked
the flxodnoss of her gaze. It seemed
to call upon him to avenge an Insult.
Ho couldjmly bluster "Who brought
this thing hero?" Ho liung the note
upon the tabic,
"A messenger." Grace's look did
not waver.
"Tho lmpudenco!" ho exclulmod.
"Tho affront! ,r
"Howeyor," Bald Grace, "I presume
It Is final that I am dismissed ?"
"But hiK uiihofciuly haste in sending

"And you inuuii to luke Fiml 111 liiy

"Is ho sure that tho girl Is no im

Ho cried out impetuously, "Shall I
toll you why wo must part?"
Graco returned with a somber look,
"So Fran is to have my place!"
Gregory interposed passionately, "It
1b because I lovo you."
"So Fran Is to bo your secretary!"
sho persisted,
"Graco, you havo read my heart, I
have read yours: wo thought we could

"I lovo you, Grace I adore you.

Graco coldly withdrew her hand.
"In splto of all you say, you havo en

"No ono can tako your place, dear."

You speak of being master of your

know you lovo me. What 1b thert; to

"But others would Fee. Others

The Enemy Triumphs.

havo struck a blow ngalnst Grace Nolr
had sho not recognized "the fact that
when one liko Graco wears tho helmot
of beauty and breastplate 'of youth, tho
darts of tho very angles of Justice,
who are neither beautiful nor young,
aro" turnod aslde.t Helplessly Mrs. Jor
ferson had watched and waited and
lwt bholll thnro wns no moro Drag
on. Fran had said she would do it
nothing could have exceeded tho con
fidence of the old lady to tho new sec
retary. x
Mrs, Gregory's sense of relief waa
not so profound as her mother's, be
cause aho could not think of Grace's
absence except as a reprieve. Surely
she would return but the present was
to. bo placidly enjoyed. Graco was
gono. Mrs. Gregory's smilo once more
reminded Fran of tho other's half-forgotten
youth. When a board had lain
too long on tho ground, ono finds, on
its remove!, that tho crass la wlthpredi
all tlfu same, the grass feel 3 the sun
shine. Fran thanked herself that Grace was
no longer silhouetted against tfcn hori
zon, and Gregory, remarking this atti
tude of self-congratulation, was thrown
moro than ever out of sympathy with
his daughter. Fran was Indefatigable
in hor duties, aa secretary, but her
father felt that It was not tho name.
Sho could turn out an Immense
amount of -trork because she. waa
strong nnd playing for high stakes
but sho did not havo Grace's method
ical ways ono novqr know how Kjan
would do anything, only that she would
do it. Grace was all method, but moro
than that Ino was as Gregory phrased
It to himself she was all Grace.
Gregory missed her every minute of
tho day, and the harder Fran tried to
fill her place, the mote he resented It.
Fran wns separated from his sympa
thies by tho chnsm In his own soul.
Tho time came when Gregory felt
that he must seo Grace again and be
alono with hor. . At first, ho had
thought they must not meet apart
from the world; b, by tho end of
the week, ho was wondering what ex
cuse ho could offer .to Induce her to
meet him not at Miss Sapphlra's,
whore she now boarded, not at tho
grocery where Bob was always hover
ing about but somewhere remote,
somowhoro safe, where they might
talk about but he had no Idea of tho
conversation that might ensue; there
was nothing definite In anything save
his fixed thought of being with hor,
As to any hatm, thero could be none,
He had so long regarded Grace as the
bost woman In tho world, that even
after tho day ot kisses, bis mind con
tinued in its Inertia of faith even tho
gravitation of material facts was un
able to check Its sublime course.

State of Pennsylvania, Erected Monu
ment to Cltlzrn-Sold'ler Who Was
Made Famous During War.
John Burns, tho citizen-soldier of
GettsburB, who was" mada famous In
history; In song and In story, was a
real character, sure enough. At tho
time of 'th battle he was high con
stable of the village, and revelled In
tho efflcc. lie had no special instruc
tions, but felt it to bo his duty to
pro-serve order In his bailiwick, and to
apprehend nil suspicious characters.
As tho two armies approached Gettys
burg, Confederate scouts and spies
appeared in tho town, and were
promptly nabbed- by Burns, who filled
tho lockup, tho basement of tho
church and a warehouse or two ond
wae still on his Job when on that first
day Buford nnd Heth got Into hand
holts around Culp's Hill.
From General Raynolds ho learned
that there was going to be a real bat
tle, and John decided to be in it.
Within nn hour John Burns, citizen,
approached Major Chamberlain of the
Ono Hundred and Fiftieth Pennsylva
nia, and begged to be allowed to fight
with that regiment Ho wore a blue
swallow-tall coat with brass buttons,
and a high hat, and carried a Long
John muzzlo loading rifle, his pockets
bulging with powder and ball. Colonel
Wlster finally told him to get behind
a tree and fight, and he did. Ho
fought all day, and was wounded three
times.
Ho was born In New Jersey In 1793,
and served In tho Mexican war, and
was one of the first to enlist In the
Union army, but tho ago limit retired
him. Ho was seventy-two years old
when tho Battle of Gettysburg was
fought, and died iu Gutljsburg in 1S72.
For his loyalty and bravery the stato
of Pennsylvania erected a monument
to IiIb memory, at tho very plnco
where ho fought the citizen soldier
alono and without a commander.
An Open Question.
Irato sergeant, to a bunch of raw
recruits whom ho was trying to
drill:
"Look hero, confound it; I won't
have this. Do you think I'm a fool?"
"Shure, sorr," answered one, "we
can't say, sor. We only came here
yesterday."
On the Zouave.
A Zouave rigged out in baggy breech
es, legglns and other picturesque par
aphernalia, was on picket with a sol
dier of a western regiment who was In
regular uniform.
Tho two were greatly astonished
when a rebel Jumped out from be
hind a log, looked about and dropped
pver as If dead. They examined him.
"There Isn't a mark on him," ex
claimed the Zouave.
"No," replied the other soldier. "I
guess he saw you, and Jes' laughed
hlsself to death."
High Praise.
Onclo Eben Jackson, an old col
ored mah nt Atlanta, Go., after Sher
man had whipped Hood, was ono day
watching a dress parado. Ho was
particularly Impressed with tho pomn
ousness and authority of a "Jlgadlor
Brlndle." "Dat," exclaimed tho old fellow,
with enthusiasm, as he watched the
general handlo the troops, "Is some
fin' mighty few white men kin do an'
no nlggera at all."
One Thing Frederio Remington Insist
ed on Whla Undergoing Medi
cal Treatment.
Augustus Thomas, in his recollec
tions ot Frederic Remington, relates
the following: "One Sunday morning
fc those later days I -wont with him
to the office of an osteopathic physi
cian who was treating him, The os
teopath was a slight man and not tall.
Remington, lying face downward on
tho operating tablo, presented a sky
lino so much hlghor than that of the7
average patient that the doctor stand
ing on tho floor lacked tho angle of
pressure necessnry to his treatment
Tho doctor, thereforo, mounted a
chair, from which ho stepped to the
tablo, and Anally sat astrldo of Rem
ington, applying his full weight to tho
manipulation which ho was giving to
tho spinal column. I hopo I'm not hurt
ing you, Mr. Remington?' said the doc
tor. Remington answered, 'It's all
right, doctor, as long as you don't use
your Bpura.' "
