looked hurt.
“I thought,” he said, “that you
likod Colonel North so much. Lady
Latimer does. I believe he is the fa
vored guest."
••What time does he leave in the
morning” I asked, for the sake of
showing some interest in him.
“Quite early," he replied. “He
has to bo at the Royal horse guards bv
noon.”
“He will come back, I hope." I
knew lie would not.
I understood why he had returned
to tlie house, and had gone to the
smoking-room where most of tho
guests could see him. Then, when
tho visitors were all gone, I went back
to Lady Latimer’s room. 1 found her
very 111. 1 told the maid that I would
sit with her and road her to sleep.
“I do not like my lady’s looks at
all, Miss Lovel,” said the maid. “I
am afraid that she has overdone her
solf. I should not wonder if she has a
bad illness.”
I sat with her tho night through.
She did not speak to me. She hardly
seemed to know that I was present.
She wept and moaned through tho
night in such a heart-breaking fashion
it made mo ill to listen.
She did not hoar, poor child, what
I heard—the quick galloping of ahorse
in the early morning. When it ceased
I knew that Colonel North had gone.
She was worse in the morning;
brain fevor set in; tho doctor was sent
for hurriedly. The visitors disap
peared.
ijora wiumer wa3 irigntenea to
death.
“Brain fever,” he said. “Why,
brain fever only comes to those who
have great trouble, and she has none
in the world, absolutely none.”
The doctor’s opinion was that Lady
Latimer had overtired herself with the
Christmas festivities.
“She had Colonel North to help
her,” said Lord Latimer; “I don’t see
how she can have done too much.”
But there was no gainsaying the
fact. She was ill for a long time, and
I was her faithful, loving nurse; but
the name of Colonel North was never
mentioned between us from that night.
It was New Year’s eve when Lady
Latimer fell ill, and the violets were
in bloom before she was able to leave
the house again.
“I want to go away from hero,
Audrey,” she said to me one day. “I
want to go out-of-doors, and I cannot
here; I cannot endure the sight of this
place, and the sound of the river
makes me ill.”
“I understood, after that scene in
the park; it was no wonder that she
could not endure it.
I spoke to Lord Latimer, and he
seemed pleased that she should have
a change. We went to Brighton. I
thought the life and brightness of that
sunny watering-place would be good
for her. I might as well have brought
a dead body to the seaside.
Once, and once only, terrible ener
gy came to her. I was sitting on the
cliff overlooking the sea, and she came
to me suddenly, holding an open news
paper in her hands.
“I have been looking for you,” she
said. “I want you to read'this; it is
your fault.”
I took the paper from her hands and
read that war had broken out at the
cape, and among others who had ex
changed to bo sent out there was that
well-known and highly esteemed of
ficer, Colonel North.
“That is your fault,” she said.
‘ ‘Do you see the honorable mention
of him as a brave soldier and a noble
man?”
“Yes, I do,’’ she answered.
“You may think me for that,” I
said. “I saved him as well as you.
English officers are men of honor, and
if Colonel North had stolen the wife of
his friend, they would not have asso
ciated with him.”
Her face flushed and her head
drooped.
“I wish,” said she, “that I could
fall from the cliff here into the sea.”
Decidedly, in those days, she was not
the most pleasant companion in the
world; but I knew the gnawing misery.
“I wish,” she said to mo one day,
“that Lord Latimer would leave Lof
ton’s Cray. I shall never like the
place again.”
Captain Fleming came once or
twice, but he did not remain long. He
told me that he had never seen any
one so changed as Lady Latimer. ' J
“When I think of her leading the
cotillon on Now Year's eve, in that I
wonderful dress of blue velvet and j
pearls, and then look at her as she is !
now, I cannot believe she is the same '
woman,” he said. \
it required a great calamity to |
arouse her, and, surely enough, one
came. It was the month of August,
two years and a half after that terri
ble New Year’s eve, and I was sitting
out among the roses making some lace
for her. I saw her coming toward me !
with a terrible look on her face. I j
was almost frightened. She wore a j
long white dress; her hair was un- I
fastened, her face white a3 death; her
eyes had an expression I shall never
forget. She held out a nowspapor to
me.
“Look,” she said, “and read, i
Heaven has punished me.” '
I looked. In the list of those killed :
at Isandula was Ihc namo of Colonel i
Philip North.
“You see it,” she said slowly.” 1
“Yes, I see it. Lady Latimer.”
“It was you who sent him to his
death.”
“Better the death of a good man f
than the life of a coward,” I answered. :
“Ho has died,’ she said slowly, “be- 1
cause he loved me.1’
“No; that is wrong*; he ha3 died a :
soldier s death, and you may bo proud :
of him. \ ou can love him in death, j
whereas you could not in life. You 1
may be proud of him, now he has re- i
deemed by a hero's death what was a .
coward’s crime.” I
■ y'--'
She cried out that I was hard and
| cruel; she wept as I have never seen a
| woman weep beforo.
i “I wcutld go all the way to Isan
j dula,” she said, “to kis* his face just
| once beforo thoy lay him in his grave,”
She was like a woman stricken with
death.
Captain Fleming came down in tho
samo sunny moimi of August, and ho
talked for hours about one who had
been tho hero of tho light. lie told a
hundred anecdotes of Colonel North,
of his courage, his bravery, his kind
ness; how ho was beloved by his friends,
worshipped by tho soldiers; how he
was always ready with kindly words
and generous help.
She listened with a white, sot face;
and spoke no word.
“I do not beliovo,” said Captain
Fleming, “that he had a blot in his
life.”
But wo two women, who knew
what a dark and terrible blot there
had been, said nothing.
Lady Latimer was like a woman
turned into stono.
Another groat event happened in
that month of August.
I Lord Latimer died quite suddenly.
| He had been unusually irritable, and
complained of not being well, but
no one suspected that ho was worse
than usual. His valet, going to wake
him one morning, found him doad in
his bed, and tho doctor said ho had
been dead some hours. There was no
need for any inquest; he had died
from heart disease from which ho had
suffered manv vears.
It was a terrible blow to Lady Lati
mer; not that she loved him but that
it brought her sin and her sorrow so
forcibly to her mind.
“How strange it seems that he
should have died first." she said to me
one day. “Oh, Audrey,” God has
punished my sin.”
Then Lionel Fleming became Lord
Latimer, and master of Lorton's Cray.
The old lord had left his wife a large
fortune.
“I shall sperd it all in charity she
said to mo. “There is but one interest,
one pleasure in life left, and that is
doing good to others.”
And it was perfectly true. If ever
any woman tried to make up for a sin
by charity and good deeds, Lady Lati
mer did.
The new Lord Latimer begged of us
to remain at Lorton’s Cray for some few
months. He did not want to take pos
ession until the spring of the year,
and he prayed us to remain there
Lady Latimer consented, and we lived
there in peace and seclusion until the
Christmas snow was on the ground
again and the New Year coming round,
[TO BE CONTINUED.]
LIVING IN A CHURCH.
A United States Senator Occupies One
as a Kesklence.
An ex-senator of the United States
lives in a church in Washington, and
seems to like it. Tho peculiar thing
about it is that the church in question
is still in a condition which would per
mit of the words of truth being ut
tered every Sunday from tho sacred
desk, and that the ex-senator is one of
the wealthiest men in Washington,
and could afford to dwell in the finest
mansion in the city, with all the re
finements of civilization. Everybody
knows tho picturesque and vine-clad
little church on Massachusetts avenue,
at the intersection of Eighteenth and
P streets. Ex-Senator Van Wyck, his
wife and young daughter have made it
their home.
Mrs. Van Wyck owns the property,
it having been bought by her husband
and presented to her as a little after
dinner favor the day they were leav
ing Washington for Nebraska, at the
conclusion of the latter’s senatorial
career. It has been the scene of High
Church Episcopal and Swedenborgian
services, but lately has been idle.
When Mr. and Mrs. Van Wyck came
here to attend to repairs then in pro
gress upon their own property, the
former suggested that they camp out
in their empty church. Mr. Van
Wyck has a horror of mounting steps,
and thought it would be a great scheme
to live on the ground floor. So they
moved to the church and divided off
tho auditorium by imaginary lines
into a parlor, bod rooms, dining room
and picture gallery. The pictures
they had stored away hero in plenty,
and a shopping expedition quickly pro
vided the necessary furniture. The
vestry was turned into a kitchen, and
the shining pipes of tho organ and
the decoration of the chancel helped
out the art gallery. Rugs, lamps,
small tables, easy chairs and sofas dot
the space all around, and papers and
books are in profusion.
With plenty of servants and every
comfort possible, the household spends
the days very enjoyably in its novel
quarters.
Piety In Practice.
An American hostess who wished
to make the best impression on an
English lord instructed her old negro
butler to address their guest without
fail by his proper title. Uncle Josh,
the butler, had never heard of any
lord save his Creator, and the lady’s
feelings can better bo imagined than
described when she heard Uncle Josh
say. “My Cod! Have a biscuit?”
The above deity proved to be a per
fect fraud, and when Uncle Josh was
told that his master hud lost consider
able through him,ho was heard to say,
“That’s what they gits for followin'
after strange gods."—Truth.

GRESHAM AS PEACEMAKER. '
Extract* from I.-ttnrj to Bayard oa tha
Vcnernela Dispute.
Washington. April 18.—The published
correspondence of the state department
for 1884, made public yesterday, coil
t .Inn but two letters In reference to the
Veneruelan boundary dispute. They are
addressed to Ambassador Bayard at
London nnd are dated July 13 and Dec.
1 last respectively. The first letter re
cites the efforts made to have the dis
pute settled by arbitration and Eng
land’s gradually widening claims to ter
ritory and concludes with tho opinion
there are but two solutions of the ques
tion-arbitration or the creation of a
new boundary line "In accordance with
the dictates of expediency and consider
ation." The second letter Is a reference
to Britain’s contention that the validity
of her claim to territory In dispute shall
be a condition precedent to the sub
mission of the matter to arbitration and
hopes Mr. Bayard will succeed In secur
ing an honorable settlement of the
dlillculty
FIGHTING FOR THE OFFICE8.
Uov. Mosley of the Chickasaw Nation
lias His Hands Full.
St. Louis, Mo.. April 18.—A special
from Ardmore, I. T., says: "One hun
dred armed men are reported near Tish
omingo, the Chickasaw capital. Gov.
Mosely notified all sheriffs, constables
nnd deputies to report at once to him
for active duty. His Intention Is to dis
band the faction which Is composed of
Charles and Willi3 Brown and Noah
McMill as leaders, and their followers.
They claim to have been duly and
legally elected as sheriffs for the Chick
asaw country. The legislature, how
ever, Ignored their claims, and other
officers were Installed. This faction
holds that the legislature had no auth
ority to interfere, hence their deter
mined effort to Install themselves.
Bloodshed cannot be avoided."
HEARING IOWA LAND CASES.
Bettlen on Sioux City Railroad Grant
Claim Title Through Forfeiture.
Washington, April 18.—The United
States Supreme court is hearing argu
ments In throe cases to which various
settlers In Iowa, on the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul Railroad companies'
lines, are parties. The cases Involve
the ownership of about 22,000 acres of
land along the lines of these roads,
which the Sioux City company claims
was granted to it by the government
of the United States in 1864. It Is
claimed on the part of the settlers that
the railroad company failed to earn the
land by a failure to build part of its
line within the time specified in the
act. The lands have all been settled
and Improved, and are considered valu
able.
Trust Refineries Resume Work,
Philadelphia, Pa., April 18—Spreckels*
sugar refinery, which has been closed
for about two weeks by order of the
sugar trust, has started up again. The
resumption is looked upon as perma
nent, The plant is running on nearly
full time, but with a reduced force. The
refinery at Williamsburg, N. Y., which
was closed by the trust at the same
time, has also resumed work. The Mc
Cahan refinery, which is not controlled
by the trust, is running full time.
Wisconsin Arbitration Bill rasses.
Madison, Wis., April 17.—The senate
passed the O'Neill arbitration bill,
which has passed the assembly. The
bill provides for the settlement of labor
disputes by a commission of three, who
shall each receive $5 a day and expen
ses while actually engaged in their
duties. They are not given the power
to enforce their decisions. The law Is
In many respects similar to that in
operation In Massachusetts. An assem
bly bill providing for licensing street
car companies was concurred In by the
senate. It provides that a license of 1
per cent on the gross receipts up to
8250,000 be charged; above that 1% per
cent until the $500,000 mark is reached,
when 2 per cent shall be charged. This
■license fee is to be paid in lieu of other
taxes.

claim of the Northern Pacific railroad to
lands lying in Idaho within the limits

formed into a part of Coeur d'Alene

Indians ceded these lands back to the ,

Train Wrcckrrs at Work.
Cone, Texas. April 18.—An unsuccess
ful attempt was made to wreck a San
ta Fe passenger train on a bridge near
here yesterday.
A Pnternnl CJnvtrrmnent*
The Gentleman's Magazine: Regu
lations anil by-laws of all sortu appear
to add a scat to Herman existence; If
there is a bridge or tollgnto, the notices
there posted state that the ofilcisls lu
charge will not have to pay anything
when they go across, I have seen a
bridge with a special tariff for each an
imal—so much for a horse to cross, so
much for u goose or turkey! Level
crossings on the railways are very com
mon, but not very dangerous, owing to
the pace of the foreign train. However,
wh?n an official is kept all day to let
down the barrier and keep people back
it is also thought neocssary to put up
an enormous cast iron notice request
ing the public to “halt at the shut bar
rier." It is difficult to pass such a com
bination of obstruction, but one can do
so by jumping over tho barrier—a feat
which causes as much surprise as if one
were to walk on one's head in Eng
land. Not much is expected of tho
Herman traveler in the way of ngllity;
he is warned in tho trains that lie
“jumps off and onuthis own peril;"
another characteristic notice which
they contain is the request “not tosplt,
out of consideration for fellow trav
elers."

There is a lew In France in whleh

that a purchaser of a horse has nine

Did you ever stop to think how completely the Aermotct
Co. made the modern wiudaiiII busmens ? How it has monop>
olixed this entir# line of manufacture because of tts ideas,
inventions, designs, qnalitiot and prices, or forced others
to bo literal and servile imitators f Witness tho steel
th* back geared pumper, the high geared power
mul, the steel towers, fixed and tilting, th® galvanizing
0* work after completion, the grinder centrifugal feed,
tho improved irrigating and other pumps, tho all steel
polo saw—one of the mo3t popular things we ever put out
~the steel storage er.d stock tanks. Everything wo have
touched we have bettered and cheapened. It is the thing wo
havo delighted in and it h ■ paid. WohaveesUhlished a seoro
of branch houses, so us to h. v* all these goods near those who
want them. The Aermotor Co. has bet one more ambition. It
wants to build and fill one more new building. It has 2 acres
of laud at its present location unoccup.ed by buildings. It ex
pects to commence in Junetocovor that 2 acres with a single
Irndd^g, 7 stones high. This will give it 14 moro acres of floor
space. Then when the public demand requires more goods
than can be produced with this added space, it will refuse to
extend further, or make any effort. It will have done its share
demand. It will then turn away a'l new comers.
