N 'OAT, iu Mr. Kingsnortli's trill," went ou the lawyer, itoJuc ins a leather poeketbook filled with important looking pa lmers "in his w ill" be repeated. Mrs. CLJi'-'jesU r stopped crying. "Eh? A "What?" said Alaric, beaming. "Did the dear old gentleman leave a will?" Even Ethel stopped playing: with 1'et and listened languidly to the eouver ratien. Mr. Ilawkes, realizing he had their complete interest, went on importantly: "As Mr. Kiiigsuertu's l"-g:l adviser up to the time of Lis untimely death I have come here to make you ae quainred with some of its contents." He spread a formidable looking doc ument wide open on ti.e table, adjust ed his pince nez and prepared to read "Pear old Natl" said Alaric reflec tively. "Do you remember, mater, we met him at Victoria station once '.vhen I was little more than a hahy? Vet I can see him now as plainly as if it were yesterday a port y. sandy haired old l'U 1: with three j" ly chins." "lie was white toward the end and very, very thin." said Mr. Ilawkes portly. "Was he?" from .Marie. "Faney that. It just shows, mater, doesn't it?" Ue lent eagerly over the table as Ilawkes traced some figures with a pencil on one of the pages of the will. "How much did u; leave?" And Alaric's vop?e rose to a pitch of well u.lir.ed interest. "Jlis estate is valued, rtpproximr ti'ly. at some 2X).fn0." replied the lawyer. Alarie gave a long. 1 iw w histle and smiled a broad, comprehensive smile. Etiiel for the fust; time showed a gleam of genuine interest. Mrs. Chichester began to cry azain. "l'erhaps it was my fault I didn't see Lim ortener." she saai. Alari;-. unable to curb his curiosity, burst out with. "How did the old boy s;!it it up?" "To his immediate relations he left" Mr. Ilawkes looked up from the will and found three pairs of eyes fixed on Lim. He stopped. It may be that constant association with the nw courts destroys faith in human nature; but. whatever the cause, it seemid to Mr. Ilawkes in each of those eyes was reflected the one dou.iuact feeling freed. The expression in the family's combined eyes was astonishing in its directness, in. its linrefjiceuiii-sHr It Ftruvl: the digniiied gentleman sudden ly dumb. W'.-il? Well?" cried Alaric. "How much? Don't stop right in the middle of an important thing 1-ke that. You make me as nervous as a chicken." Mr. Ilawkes returned to the will and after looking at it a moment without reading said: "To his immediate relations Mr. Kinzsnorth left. I regret to say noth ing." A momentary silence fell like a pall over the stricken Chichester family. Mrs. Chichester rose, indignation i!:isliing from the eyes that a moment einee showed a healthy hope. "Nothing:" she cried incredulously. "Not a penny piece to any one?" ven ture 1 Alaric. The fainu-st suspiciou of a smile Citted across Ethel's face. Ilawkes looked keenly at them and oesiv red: "1 deeply regret to say nothing." Mrs. Chichester turned to Ethel, who l:ad Iwgun to stroke IVt again. His own flesh and blood!" cried the jamr lady. "What v. shabby old beggar!" com nniit'd Alaric indignantly. "He was :Tways the -most selfish, the jnost" began Mrs. Chichester, when Mr. Hawkes. wlc had been turning over the pages of Hie document before 1 irn. gf?ve an ejaculation of relief. "Ah: Her.- v.c have it. This. Mrs Chi' h"sier. is bow Mr. Kingsnorth ex pressed Ids attitude toward his rela tions in liis last will and testament: "'I am the only member of t lie Ivingsnorth family who ever made any money. All my precious relatives either Inherited it or married to get it.'" "I assure you" begfii Mrs. Chi. hes tei. AJaric checker! her. "Half a moment, mater. Let us hear it out to the bitter i: 1. He must have been an amusing old gentleman." Mr. Hawkes resumed: " 'Consequent ly I am not going t" leave one ionny to relations who are already well pro vided for.' " Mrs. Chichester r rote-ted vehe mently: "I'.ut we are not provided for." "No." added Alaric. "Our bank's busied " ".We're ruined:" sobbed Mrs. Chiches ter. P.roke:" said Alaric ' "We'.ve nothing!" wn:hd the old lady,' ""Dear, der.'" said ttii- lawyer. ."How extremely painful !" -.-Poir.ful? That's rot The word Dis- umgr can it," corrected Alaric. FBG :- HEAR! By J.Hartley.Manners Mr. nawkes thought n moment. Tlien he said. "Under those circum stances perhaps a clause in the will may have a certain interest and an ele ment of relief." As two drowning people clinging to the proverbial straws the mother and .on waited breathlessly for Mr. IIawko3 to go ou. Etiiel showed no interest whatever. "When Mr. Kingsnorth realized that he had not very much longer to live he spoke constantly of his other sister. Angela." resumed Mr. nawkes. "Angela!" cried Mrs. Chichester in surprise. "Why. she's dead." "That was why he spoke of her." said Hawkes gravely. "And not a word of me?" asked Mrs. Chichester. "We will come to that a little later." and Mr. nawkes again referred to the will. "It appears that this sister. An gela, married at the age of twenty a certain Irishman, by name O'Connel!. and was cut off by lur family" "The man was ajj agitator a Fenian agitator. He hadn't a penny. It was a disgrace" Alaric checked liis mother again. Hawkes resumed: "Was cut off by I her familv. went to the I'nited States of America with her husband, where a daughter . was born, Afrj- going .hrough many conditions &- misery with her husband, who never seemed to prosper, she died shortly after giv ing birth to the child." He looked up "Mr. Kingsnorth elsewhere expresses his lasting regret that in one of his sis ter's acute stages of distress she wrote to hin asking him for the first time to assist her. lie replied: 'You have made your netl. m it. "She had disgraced the family. He was justified." broke in Mrs. Chiches ter. "With death approaching." resumed Uawkes. "Mr. Kingsnorth's conscience began to trouble him. and the remem brance of his treatment of his unfortu nate sister distressed him. If the chiid were alive he wanted to see her. 1 made inquiries nnJ found that the girl was living with tier father in very poor circumstances in the city of New York We sent sufficient funds for the jour ncy. together with a request to the fa ther to allow her to visit Mr. Kings north in England. The father con sented. 'However, before the young girl sailed Mr. Kingsnorth died." "Oh." cried Alaric. who had been listening intently. "Died, eh? Th.:t was too bad. Died lefore seeing her. Did you let her sail. Mr. Ilawkes?" "Yes. We thought it best to bring her over here and acquaint her with the sad news after her arrival. Had she known before sailing she might not have taken the journey." "But what was the use of bringing her over when Mr. Kingsnorth was dead?" asked Alaric. "For this ' reason." replied Ilawkes. "Ilealizing that he might never see her. Mr. Kingsnorth made the most remark able provision lor her in his will." "Provided for her and not for" be gan Mrs. Chichester. "Here is the provision." continued Mr. Hawkes. again reading from the will: "I hereby direct that the sum of 1.0K) a year be paid to any respect able, well connected woman of breed ing and family who will undertake the education and upbringing of my niece, Margaret O'Connell. in acordance with the dignity and tradition of the Kings norths.' " "He remembers a niece be never saw, and his own sister" And Mrs. Chi Chester once more burst into tears. "It beats cockhghtiug; that's all I can say." cried Alaric "It simply beats coeklighting." Mr. Ilawkes went on reading: "'If at the expiration of one year my niece Is found to be. in the judgment of my executors, unworthy of further inter est she is to be returned to her father and the sum of 250 a year paid her to provide her with the necessaries of life. If. on the other hand, she proves herself worthy of the best traditions of the Kingsnorth family the course of training is to le continued until she reaches the age of twenty-one. when I hereby bequeath to her the sum of .".000 a year, to be paid her annually out of my estate during her lifetime and to be continued after her death to any male issue she may have by mar riage.' " Mr. Ilawkes stopped and once again looked at the strange family. Mrs. Chichester was sobbing. "And me his own siater" Alari-.- was moving restlessly about. "Keats anything I've heard of posi tively anything." Ethel was looking intently at Pet's coa t. Hawkes continued: ""Ou no account is l.er father to be permitted to visit her. and should the course of training te continued after the first year she tt.ust not on any account visit ner fathtr. After she" reaches the- a of twenty-one s-hc can do as she p.'ejses." " Mr. Hjwkes folded up the will with the air of a man who hud ruushed an important duty. Alaric burst out with: "I don't see how that clause interests us in the least. Mr. Hawkes." The lawyer removed his pince nez and. looking steadily at Mrs. Chiches ter, said: "Now. my dear Mrs. Chichester, it was Mr. Kingsnorth's wish that the ' - 4 , Hawkes Read the Kingsnorth Will, first lady to be upr-ro.tched on the mat ter of undertaking the training of the young lady should be you." Mrs. Chichester rose in astonish ment. "I?" Alaric arose in anger. "My mother?" Ethel quietly p::':.ed I'et's ear and waited. Mr. Ilawkes went on quietly: "Mr. Kingsnorth said he would be sure at least of his niece h::ving a strict upbringing in the best traditions of the Kingsnortbs and ihat. though his hister Monica was somewhat narrow and conventional in ideas I use his own words still he felt sure she was eminently fitted to undertake such a charge. There you have the whole object of my visit. Now. will you un dertake the training of the young lady?" "I never heard of such a thing:-' cried Mrs. Chichester furiously. "Iiidiculons!" said Ethel calmly. "Tush and nonsense:" with which Alaric dismissed the whole matter. "Then 1 may take it you refuse?" queried the astonished lawyer. "Absolutely!" from Mrs. Chichester. "Entirely."' from Ethel. "I should say so!" and Alaric brought up the rear. Mr. Ilawkes gathered up h'.s papers and in a tone of regret ventured: "Tin n there is nothing more to be said. 1 was only carrying out the dead man's wishes by coming here and making th" facts known to you. Mr. Kingsnorth was of the opinion that you were v?r'. provided for and that. oti!id'.; or' ill -sentimental reason th.it the girl wa: your own niece, the additional thou sand pounds ;t year r;lg!:t be welcome as. say. pin money for your dang!; ter." Ethel laughed her dry. cheerless lit tle laugh, -ria: Tiii money!" Alaric grew s"di!--u!y grave and drew his mother and si - ter out of Mr. Hawkes' vicinity. "Listen, nraier. Kikcl. It's a root thousand, you know: Thousands don't groAv on raspberry bushes when youi batik's gone up What do ye think eh?" Mrs. Chicliosier brightened. "It would keep things together." she said. "The wolf from the do-r." urged Alaric. "No charity." chimed in Ethel. (To lie Continued.) A Seienty-Year-OId Couple. Mr. and Mrs. T. B.

Yesterday afternoon a number of young people' wended their way to the green banks of the Missouri river for rn outing and to enjoy a meal out in the open air. On their arrival at the picnic grounds they were most awful ly hungry, and so they immediately proceeded to prepare the picnic sup per. When the supper was ready the merry picnickers gathered about the festive spread and with appetites whetted by the outdoor life, soon made the improvised table nothing but a memory. After supper various outdoor sports were indulged in, and then Jjke entire party enjoyed a de lightful boat ride down the river. It was about :30 when the merry pic nickers returned home, tired, but hav ing most thoroughly enjoyed the out ing. The picnickers were: Mis.se:s Clara and Anna Wohlfarth, Jessie Moore. Verna Hatt, Mr. and Mrs. August Cloidt and Paul Wohlfarth. I will make my regular visit to Plattsmouth on Tuesday, May 18th.

Miss llol.iregc made Plattsmouth a very short visit last week Thursday rn her return to her Massachusetts home. She was the guest of Captain and Mrs. Palmer. We are pained to chronicle the death of Mr. and Mrs. John Water man's infant daughter, aged two and one-half months, which took place last Saturday morning, and the funeral oa Sunday afternoon. The disease was chcleia irfanturr., which attacked the child on Thursday morning, Ihe 4th, ard with such violence as to end its life in the ; hort space of two days. This is the third child Mr. and Mrs. Waterman have lost since their resi dence in Plattsmouth. Our very good friend, the Rev. Mr. Blackburn, thought he would act the good Samaritan and wake George ' Tickler up, for fear he might be j drowned in the gathering waters. Lighting a lantern he waded over and ! knocked and paunded and th rowed cord wood at the door, but no George I waked up.
