In :be same instant one of the men

planter in the back of the neck.
"You curi" cried Norton, as he
wheeled on him.
"Ltemt. him—let him have it!"

It was mid afternoon of the day fot

"The doctor says he win soon be

'Betty. | wjsn you wouldn't go

authority.
"You needr/t distress yourself. Tom.

• !••••» .
At Thicket Point Charley Norton,
greatly excited, hobbled Into the li
brary In search of Carrington. He
found him reading by tbe open win
dow .
“1 '-ok here. Bruce!" he cried, "it’s
ed; she's going to marry me! !
Can't you wish me joy?"
Carrington held out his band.
"You are not going to take any
nsks now. you have too much to live
for." he said haltingly.
“No. I'm fo keep away from Belle
1'said Norton happily. "She In
slats on that Everything la to be
kept a secret until we are actually
married; It’s her wish—”
"It's to be soon, then?" Carrington
asked, still haltingly.
“Very soon.”
There was a brief slleDce. Carring
ton, with face averted, looked from
the window.
“I am going to stay here as long as
you need me.” he presently said. :
"Miss Mairoy asked me to, and then
1 am going back to the river, where 1
belong.”
i
Betty ate supper with big Steve
standing behind her chair and little
Steve balancing himself first on one
foot and then on the other near tne
door.
The' long French windows, tnelr
curtains drawn, stood open. She
wandered down to the terrace. There
was the sound of a step on the path.
1 Betty turned. It was Carrington who
| stood before her, his face haggard.
Without a word he stepped to her
side and took her hands rather rough
*
“What am I to do without you?"—
| his voice was almost a whisper.
■ "What is this thing you have done?"
Betty's heart was beating with dun
| sickening throbs.
"If you had only come!" she
moaned. “Now 1 am going to be mar
j ried tomorrow. 1 am to meet him at
the Spring Bank church at ten
j o'clock.”
“How can I give you up?” he said.
hl3 voice hoarse with emotion. He
put her from him almost roughly, and
I leaning against the trunk ot a tree
buried his face in his bands. Betty
watched him for a moment in
wretched silence.
"It's good-by—” he muttered.
She went to him, and, as he bent
above her. slipped her arms about ms
neck.
"Kiss me—" she breathed.
He kissed her hair, her soft cheek,
then their lips met.
Another hot September sun was
! beating upon the earth as Betty gal
loped down the lane and swung her
horse'S head in the direction of Ka
I leigh. She would keep her promise
to Charley and he should never know
w hat his happiness had cost her.
Norton joined her belore she had
i covered a third of the distance mat
separated the two plantations.
"We are to go to the church. Mr.
Bowen will ne there; 1 arranged with
him last night; he will drive over
with his wife and daughter, who will
be our witnesses, dear.".
Afterward Betty could remember i
standing before the church in the
Perce morning light; she heard Mr.
Bowen's voice, she heard Charley's
voice, she heard another voice—her
own, though she scarcely recognized
It.
'Til tie the horses. Betty," said
Norton.
He had reached the edge of the I
as the shadows deepened he was aware
that Betty was coming swiftly toward
him.
“I’m shot—” he said, speaking with
difficulty.
"Charley—Charley—” she moaned,
slipping her arms about him and
gathering him to her breast.
He looked up into her face.
“It’s all over—’’ he said, but as
much in wonder as in fear. “But t
knew you could come to me—dear—"
he added In a whisper.
She felt a shudder pass through
him. He did not speak again.
CHAPTER XVI.
The Judge Offers a Reward.
The news of Charley Norton's mur
der spread quickly over the county.
For two or three days bands ot armed
men scoured the woods and roads,
and then this activity quite unpro
ductive of any tangible results ceased,
matters were allowed to rest with the
constituted authorities, namely Mr.
Betts, the sheriff, and his deputies.
No private citizen had shown
greater zeal than Judge Slocum Price.
One morning he found under his door
a folded paper:
“You talk too much. Shut up. or
you’ll go where Norton went.”
A few moments later he burst in
on Mr. Saul.
“Glance at that, my friend!” he
cried, as he tossed the paper on the
clerk's desk. “What do you make of
it. sir?”
“Well, I'd keep still."
The judge laughed derisively as he
bowed himself out.
He established himself in his of
fice. He had scarcely done so when
Mr. Betts knocked at the door. The
sheriff came direct from Mr. Saul and
arrived out of breath, but the letter
was not mentioned by the Judge He
spoke of the crops, the chance of
rain, and the Intricacies of county
politics. The sheriff withdrew mysti
fied. wondering why it was he had
not felt at liberty to broach the sub
ject which was uppermost in his
mind
His place was taken by Mr. Pegloe
and on the heels of the tavern-keeper
came Mr. Bowen. Judge Price re
ceived them with condescension, but
back of the condescension was an air
of reserve that did not invite ques
tions. The judge discussed the exten
sion of the national roads with Mr.
Pegloe. and the religion of the Per
sian fire-worshipers with Mr Bowen;
he permited never a pause and they
retired as the sheriff had done with
out sight of the letter.
The judge's office became a per
fect Mecca for the idle and the curi
ous. and while he overflowed with
high-bred courtesy he had never
seemed so unapproachable—never so
remote from matters ot local and con
temporary Interest.
“Why don’t you show ’em the let
ter?''* demanded .Mr Mahaffy. when
they were alone. “Can t you see they
are suffering for a sight of it?”
“Charley—Charley!” She Moaned.
oaks fchen from the silent depths or
the denser woods came the sharp re
port of a rifle. The shock of the but
let sent the young fellow staggering
back among the mossy and myrtle
covered graves.
For a moment no one grasped what
had happened, only there was Norton
who seemed to grope strangely among
the graves. He had fallen now. Even
"All in good time. Solomon." He
became thoughtful. "Solomon. 1 am
thinking of offering a reward lor any
information that will lead to the dis
covery of my anonymous correspond
ent," he at length observed with a
finely casual air. as It the idea had
just occurred to him. and had not
been seething In his brain alt day. j

in the swift dusk of evening, when fur

with wailing and demoniac laughter,
or the silver bark of little foxes 1
echoed over the mist-veiled rice-fields,

comfortable deck chairs in a great,

SAVED J§ RUIN
Undermining of Winchester Cath
edral Stopped by Cement.
_
For Many Years the Historic Building
Has Been Cracking, Bulging and
Settling, Threatening to Col
lapse Completely.
London.—After a period of eight
centuries. Winchester cathedral now
. rests on a solid and immovable foun
: iation, saved from threatened ruin
Almost every day in the last few1 years
the movements of a diver in regula
! :ion dress have teen watched with cu
. nous interest as he entered or emerg
I ?d from the water beneath the founda
tions of the cathedral. He was at
work helping to save from ruin one of
England's noblest historic buildings,
and the successful issue of the under
taking has been celebrated by a
:hanksg;ving service in the cathedral.
For several years the dean and chap
ter of Winchester had been watching
ominous signs, such as cracks, bulg
ings and settlements, sure harbingers
of a collapse of the cathedral. From
the interior daylight could be seen
through the cracks; the latter grew
ever wider and wider. The walls on
the south side and the Norman tran
septs. un equaled for their majestic
simplicity, were riven in ell directions
The massive masonry of the Norman
builders had from the beginning
proved too ponderous for the watery,
compressible soil which forms the
foundation.
The first hole dug into the founda
tions revealed the cause of the whole
trouble—water—and acting on expert
advice, boles were dug in sections
through the top soil and chalk and far
through the peat. Then it was the
work of the diver in his usual diving
dress to enter the hole, remove further
layers of peat so as to allow the water
to rise into the cavity, and then to lay
a flooring of cement to prevent the wa
ter from sinking back into the gravel.
After the imprisoned water had been
removed by pumping the cavity was
filled up with brickwork in cement
Tbis extended from the floor laid by
East Front of Winchester Cathedral.
the diver up to the solid stonework of
the cathedra), showing like a roof of
rock overhead.
While the work underground was be
ing carried on. patiently and thor
oughly. seven anxious years, the
cracks in the walls, vaultings and
arches of the fabric were welded by
the injection of liquid Portland cement
from a squirting machine, a process
known as grouting, capable of being
so manipulated as to fill either a shal
low crack or a rent through the thick
ness of a massive wall.
Every crevice is now being repaired,
every flaw and displacement remedied,
every trace of instability in the foun
dations removed, and the cathedral
seems to stand as solidly as the
strongest building in the kingdom.
MAN'S SIGHT IS RESTORED
FalL Against Doer Gives George Mor
gan Hope for Complete
Recovery.
Wilmington, Del.—Becoming totally
blind fourteen weeks ago. George
M. Morgan Jr., aged twenty-three
years. 1351 East Thirteenth street, had
his sight restored to him through an
accident. About eleven years ago Mor
gan was struck in one eye with a
stone a small boy bad thrown at a
freight car. His sight was badly af
fected and last September he went
to St. Joseph's hospital In Baltimore
to have his eye treated. While sitting
in his boarding house fourteen weeks
ago he suddenly became totally blind
without any warning whatever.
He came to this city to visit his
j>arents on June 29. and he tripped
over a rug and fell, his forehead strik
ng a door-jamb with much force.
When he arose he found that he could
see the daylight and later develop
ments showed that he could see bet
ter than before he went to the hos
pital last yar.
He intends to return to the hos
pital to continue the treatment, al
though the physicians told him they
did not think he ever would he able
to see again. His mother was at
market at the time of the accident
,nd could not believe her son s glad
declaration when she returned until
he told her the color of her hat and
dress and described other things in
the room.

LEGAL ADVICE.
Lawyer—If you wish to get off with
the minimum punishment, I'd advise
vcu 10 confess everything and throw
yourself cn the mercy of the court
Accused—But if I don't confess?
Lawyer—©h! in that case you will
very likely be acquitted for want o£
evidence
RED, ROUGH HANDS MADE
SOfT AND WHITE
For red, rough, chapped and bleed
ing hands, dry, fissured, itching, burn
ing palms, and painful finger-ends,
with shapeless nails, a one-night Cuti
cura treatment works wonders. Di
rections: Soak the hands, on retir
ing, in hot water and Cuticura Soap.
Dry. anoint with Cuticura Ointment,
and wear soft bandages or old, loose
gloves curing the night. These pure,
sweet ar.d gentle emollients preserve
the hands, prevent redness, roughness
and charring, and impart In a single
night that velvety softness and white
ness sc much desired by women. For
those whose occupations tend to in
jure the hands, Cuticura Soap and Cu
ticura Ointment are wonderful.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of each
free, with 32-p. Skin Book. Address
post-card “Cuticura, Dept. L, Boston.”
Wanted Minute Evidence.
Or fa, the celebrated doctor, being
examined as an “expert” on a capital
trial, was asked by the president
whether he could tell what quantity
of arsenic was required to kill a fly.
The doctor replied:
"Certainly, M. le President. But
I must know beforehand the age of
the fly, its sex. its temperament, its
condition and habit of body, whether
married or single, widow or spinster,
widower or bachelor. When satisfied
on these points 1 can answer your
question."
Badiy Frightened Fish.
“It was never so known before."
says Rankin Dunfre. a local angler,
who wasn't angling on the occasion in
point. “I was crossing the bridge near
home, swinging my lantern, for the
night was dark. I heard a great
splash, got down on the bank with
toy lantern to see the cause, and lo
and behold, a 16-:nch fish lay flounder
ing in the weeds. The lantern must
have scared him out of the water—
don't you think?”—Philadelphia Rec
ord.
Lacks Originality.
"Bilkins tells me that he has lately
subscribed for a new thought maga
tine."
*T hope its rerujal will inspire him
with some new thoughts. Nobody
talks about the weather more than
Bilkins does."
Corrected.
“Isn't that lady attenuated In
form?”
"Do yen think so? Now, I'd call her
real thin.”
More Time Needed.
“You must get three weeks' vaca
tion this year.”
“Why?"
“Two weeks aren't enough.”
“They're all I can get.”
“I don't care. You've got to have
three. Last year I had to come home
with two new dresses that 1 hadn't
had time to wear.”
