CHAPTER VllI.-rCo-TINu [ I
I
, Mr. Trevlyn had the diamonds , which
I .
Were the wonder of the city , richly set ,
: ' and Margarie was to wear them on her
I I bridal night , as a special mark of the
i old man's favor. For , next to the dia-
mends : , the sordid man loved Margie
Harrison.
, Linraerc's gift to his bride was very
simple , but in exquisite taste , Mrs. Wel-
don decided. A sot of turquoise , with
his initials and hers interwoven. Only
when they were received , did Margie
conic out of her cold composure. She
snapped together the lid of the casket
containing them with something very
like angry impatience , and gave the box
to her maid.
"Take them away , Florine. instantly ,
slid put them where I shall never see
I
them again ! "
The woman looked surprised , but she
was a discreet piece , and strongly attached -
tached ! to her mistress , and she put the
ornaments away without comment.
The tenth of October arrived. A wet ,
lowering day , with alternate snatches
of rain and sunshine , settling down to -
ward sunset into a steady , uncomfortable -
able drizzle. A dismal enough wed- '
. ding-day. i
The ceremony was to take place at
nine o'clock in the evening , and the in-
vilcd guests were numerous. Harrison
"I
ra , Park would accommodate them royally.
Mr. \ Linmere was expected out from
the city in the six o'clock train , and as I
the stopping place was not more than !
, I five minutes' walk from the Park he
had left orders that no carriage need
I , be .sent. He would walk up. He
thought he should need the stimulus
of the fresh air to carry him through
I , the fiery deal.he said , laughingly.
The long day wore slowly away. The
preparation were complete. Mrs. Weldon -
don , in her violet moire-antique and
family diamonds , went through the
stately parlors once more to assure her-
self that everything was au fait.
At five o'clock the task of dressing
the bride began. The bridesmaids
were in ecftacies over the finery , and
they took almost as much pains in
! dressing Margie as they would in
dressing themselves ! for a like occasion. :
' Margie's cheeks ] were as white as the
II robes they put on her. One of the
girl suggested rouge , but Alexandrine
demurred.
"A bride should always be pale , " she
said. "It looks ] so interesting , and
: gives every one the idea that she real-
i
izes the responsibility she is taking up-
,
on herself - doesn't that veil fall
sweetly ? "
li
\ And then followed a shower of femi-
r ' nine expressions of admiration from the
'll , I I four charming bridesmaids. :
J "Is everything ready ? " asked Margie ,
'I ' wearily , when at last they paused in
their efforts.
"Yes , everything is as perfect as any
one could desire , " said Alexandrine.
! "How do you feel , Margie , dear ? "
"Very well , thank you. "
"You are so self-possessed. Now I
' should be ali of a tremble ! Dear me ! I
wonder people can be so cold on the eve
of such a great change ! But then we
t
are so different. Will you not take a
h glass of wine. Margie ? "
"Thank you , no. I do not take wine , j
t you know. "
"I know , but on this occasion. Hush !
that was the whistle of the train. Mr.
Linmere will be here in a few minutes !
Shall I bring him up to see you ? It is
not etiquette for the groom to see the
bride on the day of their marriage , until -
til they meet at the altar ; but , you look
so charming , dear ! I would like him
to admire you. He has such exquisite
taste. "
Margie's uplifted eyes had a half-
frightened look , which Alexandrine
did not understand.
"No , no ! " she ! : said , hurriedly , "do not t
bring him here ! We will follow etiquette - t
quettc for this time , if you please , Miss f
Lee. " i
" 0 well , just as you please , my dear. "
"And now , my friends , be kind
enough to leave me alone , " said Margie.
"I want the last hours of my free life 1
to myself. I will ring when I desire t
your attendance. " n
Margie's manner forbade any objec-
tion on the part of the attendants , and
they somewhat reluctantly withdrew. ,
. She turned the key upon them , and
went to the window. The rain had
ceased falling , but the air was damp and
dense.
Her room was on the first floor , and
the windows , furnished with balconies , I
opened to the floor. She stood looking
out into the night for a moment , then 1
gathered up her flowing drapery , and' t
covering herself with a heavy cloak ,
stepped from the window. The damp I
eaYth struck a chill to her delicately
shod feet , but she did not notice it.
The mist and fog dampened her hair ,
unheeded. She went swiftly down the
shaded path , the dead leaves of the lin-
. den trees rustling mournfully as she
swept through them. Past the garden
and its deserted summer-house , and the I
grapery , where the purple fruit was s
lavishing its sweets on the air , and
climbing a stile , she stood beside a
group of shading cypress trees. Just
before her was a square enclosure , s
fenced by a hedge of arbor vitae , from ii
the midst of which , towering white and
spectral up into the silent night , rose a
marble shaft , surmounted by the figure
of an angel , with drooping head and t
folded wings. i
Margie passed within the enclosure Ii
and stood beside the grave of her par-
ents. She stood a moment silent , mo-
lionless ; then , for etful of her ht'idaJ
: < . . * -
' - - . . . . . - -
garment , she flung herself down on the
turf. ,
"Oh , my father ! my father ! " she
cried , "why did you doom me to such a
fate ? Why did you ask me to give
that fatal promise ? Oh , look down
from heaven and pity your child ! "
The wind sighed mournfully in the
cypresses , the belated crickets and
katydids ] droned in the hedge , but
no sweet voice -of sympathy soothed
Margie's strained ear. For , wrought up
as she was , she almost listened to hear
sbme response from the lips which
death had made mute forever.
The village clock struck half-past
eight , warning Margie that it was almost -
most time for the ceremony to take
place. She started up , drew her cloak
around her , and turned to leave the
place. As she did so , she felt a touch
on her hand-the band she laid for a
moment on the gate-as she stood giv-
ing a last sad look at the mound of
earth she was leaving ; a touch light and
soft as a breath , but which thrilled her
through every nerve.
She turned her head quickly , but saw
nothing. Something like the sound of
receding footsteps met her ear , nothing
more , but she was convinced that there
.
had been a human presence near her.
Where ? Her heart beat strangely ; her
blood , a moment before so chilled and
stagnant , leaped through her veins like
fire. From whence arose the change ?
She reached her chamber without
meeting any one , and unlocking the
door , rang for her attendants. The
house was in a strange confusion.
Groups were gathered in the corridors ,
whispering together , and some unex-
plained trouble seemed to have fallen .
upon the whole place.
After a little while , Alexandrine
came in , pale and haggard. Margie
saw that her white dress was damp ,
and her hair uncurled , as if by the
weather.
"Where have you been , Alexan-
drine ? " she asked ; "and what is the
matter ? "
The girl turned from white to crim-
son.
son."I
"I have been in my room , " she re -
plied.
"But your clothes are damp , and your
hair uncurled. "
"The air is wet , and this great house
is as moist as an ice-shed , " returned the
girl , hurriedly. "It is no wonder if
my hair is uncurled. Margie , the-the
- Mr. : Linmere has not arrived. "
"Not arrived ! It must be nine
o'clock. "
As she spoke , the sonorous strokes of
the clock proclaiming the hour , vibrated -
brated through the house.
"We have been distracted about him
for more than two hours ! he should
surely have been here by half-past six ! .
Mr. Trevlyn has sent messengers to ,
the depot , to make inquiries , and the 1
officekeeper thinks Mr. Linmere ar- . .
rived in the six o'clock train , but is
1
not quite positive. Mr. Weldon went ,
himself , to meet the seven-thirty train , ]
thinking perhaps he might have got ,
detained , and would come on in the
succeeding train , but he did not ar .
rive. And there are no more trains
to-night ! Oh , Margie , isn't it dread-
ful ? "

Margie scrutinized

apathy.
" , _ _ , _ t. : _ _ . _ _ . . .
Something ; ; : had t ;
occurred to stir the composure of this 1
usually cool , self-possessed woman fear-
'ully. But what it was Margie could r
lot guess.
Mr. Trevlyn burst into the room , t ;
ale and exhausted. ,
"It is no use ! ' " he said , throwing
limself into a chair , "no use to try ate
to ; disguise the truth ! There will be e
10 wedding tonight , Margie ! The bride- v
groom has failed to come ! The scoun- t : :
Ire ! If I were ten years younger , I c
vould , call him out for this insult ! "
Margie : laid her hand on his arm , a i
strange , new feeling of vague relief g
pervading her. it was as if some great t ; :
weight , under which her slender 0 :
strength ; had wearied and sank , were
rolled : , off from her. t :
"Compose yourself , dear guardian ,

"I beg you not to suppose such a fl

She shook her head.
"Mrs. Weldon knows. I do not. "

"White camelias. I heard Mrs. Wel-
don ask him to fetch them. "
Mr. Trevlyn started up.
"I will have out the whole house-
hold , at once , and search the whole estate -
tate ! For I feel as if some terrible
crime may have been done upon our
very threshold. Margie , dear , take
heart , he may be alive and well ! ! "
He went out to alarm the already
excited guests , and in half an hour the
place was alive with lanterns , carried
by those who sought for the missing
bridegroom. .
Pale and silent , the women gathered
themselves together in the chamber of
the bride , and waited. Margie sat
among them in her white robes , mute
and motionless as a statue.
"It must be terrible to fall by the' '
hand of an assassin ! " said Mrs. Wel
don , with a shudder. "Good heavens !
what dreadful thing it would be if
Mr. Linmere has been murdered ! "
"An assassin ! My God ! " cried Mar-
gie , a terrible thought stealing across
her mind. Who had touched her in
the cypress grove ? What hand had
woke in her a thrill that changed her
from ice to fire ? What if it were the
hand of her betrothed husband's mur- .
derer ?
I
Alexandrine started forward at Mar
gie's exclamation. Her cheek was white
as marble , her breath came quick and
struggling.
"Margie ! Margie Harrison ! " she
cried , "what do you mean ? "
"Nothing , " answered Margie , recov-
ering herself , and relapsing into her
usual self-composure.
They searched all that night , and
found nothing. Absolutely nothing.
With the early train , both Mr. Trevlyn
and Mr. Weldon went to the city. They
hurried to Mr. Linmere's room , only to
have their worst fears confirmed. Pie-
tro informed them that his master had
left there on the 6 o'clock train ; he
had seen him to the depot , and into the
car , receiving some orders from him
relative to his rooms , after he had tak-
en his seat.
There could be no longer any doubt
but that there had been foul play some-
where. The proper authorities were
notified , and the search began afresh.
Harrison Park and its environs were
thoroughly ransacked ; the river was
searched , the pond at the foot of the
garden drained , but nothing was discov-
ered. There was no clue by which the
fate of the missing man could be
guessed at , ever so vaguely.
Every person about the place was examined -
amined and cross-examined , but no one
knew anything , and the night shut
down , and left the matter in mystery.
Pietro , at length , suggested Leo11' .
Linmere's grayhound.
"Him no love his master " said the
Italian , "but him scent kean. It : will
do no hurt to try him. "
Accordingly the next morning Pie-
tro brought the dog up to the Park.
The animal was sullen , and would ac-
cept attentions from no one save Mar
gie , to whom he seemed to take at first
sight. And after she had spoken to
him kindly , and patted his head , he refused -
fused all persuasions and commands to
leave [ her. .
Mr. Darby , the detective , whose ser-
vices had been engaged in the affair ,
exerted all his powers of entreaty on
the dog , but the animal clung to Margie ,
and would not even look in the direc-
tion of the almost frantic detective.
"It's no use , Miss Harrison , " said
Darby , "the cur won't stir an inch. You
will have to come with him ! Sorry to
ask ye , but this thing must be seen
into. "
"Very well , I will accompany you , "
said Margie , rising , and throwing on
a shawl , she went out with them , fol- ,
lowed by Mrs. Weldon , Alexandrine ,
and two or three other ladies.
Leo kept close to Margie trotting
ilong beside her , uttering every now
and then a low whine indicative of anticipation -
ticipation and pleasure.

LICENSE TO STEAL.
Success ! ! of a Young Lawyer in Proving ; :
His Client a Kleptomaniac.
"My : : first case , " said a well-known at- y
orney to a San Francisco Call reporter - l
porter , "was the defense of a negro
preacher , for stealing wood from a rail- I
oad company. A great deal of fuel had i
been lost from time to time , so when q
he culprit was arrested the company .
vas , so anxious to make an example of c
him that it end
employed special counsel
nd prosecuted the case vigorously. The r 'I
vidence against the old II
man was con-
incing. He had been sneaking around
he woodpile and was arrested while n
arrying off a load. tlPi
"I had subpoenaed about twenty wellp :
mown : men to testify to the previous olhi
cod character of the defendant. When hi
he prosecution case was closed I put tl
me on the stand and asked : h ! :
" 'Do you know the defendant's repu- N

McKinley newspapers tell their read-
ers that the imports of carpets have
been largely increased under the pres-
ent tariff. This is not true. Compare
last year's total of $1,361,465 with the
total of $1,580.814 in 1893 , under the
McKinley tariff. Why , the. annual av-
erage for the first three years of that
tariff was $1,413,211. or more than last
year's total. How McKinley has encouraged -
couraged the industry of lying ! - The .

The free-trade Ananias of the New

with his carpets and tacks. The facts
won't indorse his theories. He twists
and turns his figures , but still his car-
pet lies won't keep down. His free-
trade tacks won't stand against good ,

Can't Afford Liquor or Cipari.
The internal revenue receipts of the
Gorman law have been quite as disap !
pointing as the customs. It was sup
posed that , with an increase of 20 cents
per gallon in the tax on spirits , there
would be a very material increase in the
receipts. Strangely , however , this 'lid
not happen. On the contrary , there was
a falling off in internal revenue receipts -
ceipts , and this has continued down to
the present time. The internal revenue
collections in the first nineteen months
of the new law fell thirty million dol-
lars , or more , below those of the first
nineteen months of the McKinley law ,
in spite of the fact that there was an
increase of 20 per cent. in the rate of
taxation upon spirits by the Gorman
law. The internal revenue receipts in
the last nineteen months of the McKin
ley law were over $260.000,000. So , it
will be seen that the Gorman law in
its first nineteen months fell thirty
millions behind McKinley law in its
first nineteen months as to internal rev-
enue receipts , and that it fell sixty
millions behind the McKinley law in
the closing ) : nineteen months of its his :

Free trade incr'se 275.780 $128,891 !
The 1895 figures are for the calendar
ear , this being the only complete
welve months under free trade in
fool. We leave our readers to imagine I :
n [ what direction "the industry of ly- i '
i\S" has been encouraged. Again we I
quote :
"But a very large part of the imports t
lassed as carpets is composed of east- If
rn hand-made rugs. The value of
eal machine-made carpets brought !
ito this country is small. "
We suppose that the Eastern "hand-
lade rugs , " made possibly by labor
tiat is even cheaper than the miserably
haid
aid British help , do not take the place
f American carpets , that people buy
oth when they need only one , placing
le rugs on top of the carpets , or , per-
aps , feed them cia moths m the attic.
10 ' matter where the rugs or carpets
ame from , each one of them takes the I
lace of an American product. I
Now let us see how "small" Is the
roportion of machine-made carpets.
ast year the United Kingdom sent us
56,267 square yards out of a total of
3,558 square yards of carpets import-
1 [ , over 60 per cent of the whole. Other
uropean countries sent us 245,696
tiare yards , leaving only 71,500 square
jrds sent here from Japan and other
untries In the orient and elsewhere.
s : for our exports of carpets , they were
,000 square yards less under free wool
1895 than in 1894.
There used to be some display of
cill : and artifice in the mendacious
ethods of the New York Times , but
e are sorry to note that it has now
'generated ' into nothing better than a .
undering , don't-care-a-hang , every .
ly sort of a liar , so that a ready refer- j
ice to the official democratic statistics
omptly exposes the fraud. But we
ppose it must lie for a living.

have been successful. But the spolia
tion of the United States by : bosses will
never be permitted. Naturally there
will be disappointment to some poli-
ticians , but it should not be tempered
with venom and spleen , or by the stim-
ulation of unjust and untruthful fabri-
cations.

Last week I remarked : that a man
might not set up in business as a " lawyer - I
yer , a doctor , a dentist , or even a drug-
gist , ' ' unless legally qualified. The + 5
words " , ' - " have '
"even a druggist" proved a
bitter pill in many chemists' shops. t
One chemist who has written

thinks : that I am laboring under a { r.
wrong . impression as to the training I.
' the much-abused druggist" has to un- I

show a sufficient knowledge before be- .

registered chemist and druggist , and sa .1

vending a few poisons. lie asks : me to t
come to the conclusion that he may
claim an equality with , if not prece ' ;
dence of a , qualified dentist.-London
