Tlio biggest real csttito deal of the year

other tenants will remain us they arc for

that the sulo means that Mr. Strong hus
lost any of his interest in Omaha. The
present building 13 a monument to his
enterprise. When completed , in 188 ! ! , it
was the largest and linest in tlio city , and
is yet looked upon as ono of the most sub
stantial of Omaha's business blocks. Mr ,
Strong , it is assured , will , before lone ,
erect another blocl ; oven more stately
and substantial tlmn the ono ho has just

stood for twenty years with no heir ap

the beautiful village of Hurslcy , about
seven miles north of Southampton , llur-
sloy is a quiet , shady nook , with broad
avenues lined with irrcal elms that inter-
inluclo their gnarled limbs in a natural
archway df surpassing loveliness. DC-
spilo its seclusion Hursloy has gained a ,
reputation in tlio outside world , from the
faot that John Keblo , author of the
"Christian Year" and other popular
works , Is buried in the lltllo cemetery
near the antique parsonage , whore ho re
sided during his life.
Just beyond the village limits stands an
imposing maiiMon , surrounded by many
acres of beautiful grounds that in years
gone by were a veritable paradise , so
perfect were they kept in point of land
scape gardening. The house stands buck
a milcifrpm the. highway on an eminence
lliat rises gradually from the entrance to
the magnificent uvenuo leading to it.
There was a period when llealhdalo pre
sented the picture of animated lifc.guosls
by the seoro co'ild be seen on tlio great
lawns of greensward , the merry shouts
of children echoed through the groves ,
while from the adjacent copsowood the
hunter's horn was regularly pounded
and Iho noisy hounds rushed frantically
to the chaso. The broad verandas of the
mansion at night were resplendent with
elegant costumes , worn by people of
wealth and rank , while within the
gorgeous drawing rooms were
brilliantly illuminated. In those
days the name of llealhdalo was
symbolical with grandeur , splendul
banquets , lovely women , noble men , and
She cromo do la crcmo ot English society.
oir Charles Heath was a man of the
world , passionately fond of social dis
tinction , and possibly vain of his iflagni-
fie nt estate and the imi versa 1 adtutni-
tie bestowed upon him by his guests.
15cmg an only son he was nurtured as
tenderly as : i ( lower , and as ho approached
preached manhood ho was la'ught to look
upon Iloathdale as htk'own ' and with all
tlio power and aristocratic bearing such
possession implied. , The lirst Lady
Heath , his mother , died when he was a
child , and Sir Charley bis father , lav
ished his whole love njfon this cherished
Son , the only remaining member of Iho
tannly. The son inhered all the haughty
mien and intelligence * of his race , und
acquitted himself creditably nt Oxford.
Ho was handsome almost to a
fault , and his commanding pres
ence. inspired that .deference and re
spect which ho invariably expected oven
from his most intimate. associates. Many
were tno snares laid for him by design
ing mothers and fair voung women , but
ho was alike implacable to thorn all. and ,
when in his twonty-'tlnrd year his father
"
died , Sir Charles "was unmarried und
came into the possession of lleathdalo ,
without a wife for his palatial homo and
no prospect for an 'heir , as the Heath
family was nearly extinct in the direct
line of male descendants. It was during
the following three years that Llcathdnlc
presented the life and gaycty previously
mentioned , and Sir Charles found the
grand old house a delightful homo when
tilled vith guests , though rather monoto
nous when loft to himself and servants.
About four years after his father's death
Sir Charles planned an extended tour of
the American continent , and Ileathdalc
was closed to the wo ld and loft in charge
ot an old family butler ,
Sir Charles .sailed for Now York and
nothing was heard from him for several
months , asi'lo from an occasional letter
to his solicitors in London. A year
passed und still Sir Charles did not re
turn , and lloalhdalo began to assume a
neglected appearance. Anxious friends
culled upon his solicitors for ne.ws , but in
vain ; tlio last letter received from Sir
Charles had been sent -from British Co
lumbia in the tenth month of his absence
in which ho stated that ho woujd proba
bly return in the spring , and with him a
mistress for Heathdalo. Five pears passed
and communication with the absent ono
had entirely ceased in fact , bo was lost
to his friends and to the world. His so
licitor advertised everywhere for inform
ation , though no light wan thrown upon
the mystery , and as time rolled ( in Sir
Charles Heath was forgotten by his asso
ciates , and Ileathdale. t'a&t going to des
truction for the want of proper attention ,
finally found its way into'chancory.
After all these years the solicitor in
London has obtained a faint clew to the
mystery of Sir Charles' disappearance ,
and to fully investigate tie | matter an
agout was sent to this province to find
their heir to the Heath property. From
this gentleman's version it appears evi
dent that the missing heir is now in
British Columbia unconscious of Ids
identity. Sir Charles visited Hriti.sh
Columbia in ho year 18.)8 , and , being
fond of hunting and adventure , .soutrht
Iho wildest spots for sport in the Selkirk
range with a small hunting party. His
companions were Americans , and not
wishing to bo received with thatimie-
hcribablo feeling of distance which a title
places between man and 'man , even un
der the most friendly eiroumslauces , ho
dropped the Sir from his name , concealed
his real identity , and was known to his
companions as plain Charlie lloatli ,
a jovial , kind-hearted fellow , brim
ful of racy riiuttni.soonccs of
travel , and generous Ho a fault. It
was about this period that the Caribou
excitement was at itf * cight , and , like
thousands of others , ( Irhrlio lloath and
companions were dravrn'thenee by stories
of fabulous wealth , 'i'llo cry of gold !

About two months after young Heath' :
advent in Caribou there came a tranger
accompanied by his daughter , then agir
of sixteen years. Nothing was known o

father , she was a mystery , and even her
name was not known , consequently she
was dubbed ono night in Oppenhoiiuer's
saloon by an intoxicated admirer the
Caribou Queen , and queen she was
indeed , to tlie rough men whoso
hearts beat secretly for her in
tilent love. Tlio father was a man
of gentlemanly bearing , past the imddlo
ago , and evidently an American , whose
fortunes had been swept away in that
country. For want of a bettor appella
tion ho was given the sobriquet of ' Old
Caribou.1 As thn months passed away it
was whispered through the camp thnl
"Old Caribou" had struck it rich , and
this belief beoamo more coitain from his
strange reticence. Various were the
sums attached to his claim , and thn
queen was placed in a now light before
the camp , as a cateh worth having. Despite -
spite his descent , Charlie Heath was con-
' -"is of till these things , and the very

lalo was madly in love with the ( . ' .it.
Jucc-ii. At lir.st his wits woio severely
. 'xoreised to shape excuses for visiting
Old Caribou's claim , but as time passed
on the old gentleman became loss rot'l- '
cent , und seemed to look forward to the
young man's visits with pleasure. Yet
ill lids did not tend to progress his suit ,
: md young Heath was obliged to bo oon-
' .ont with an occasional mnilo or nod ,
ivhluh only tortured his heart. Thu ,
nonths passed into a year.and the volute
loir became so wholly enraptured in tho.
low-found queen of his worship that
iiomo nnd friends were forgotten , and
iily ono letter Was written to England ,
il in that ho spoke of possibly bringing
lomo a mistress for llealhdalo. To win
IMS queen was his 1 fo. Ho pictured her
joautiful face in his palatial homo , and
n comparison with the great ladies of
rank he ga/.ed with pride on her Ittho
ind shapely form , and was well salisliod
ivith the comparison. It was early
wring of Charlie Heath's second year in
Caribou when fate gave him a chance to
won his lovo.
The winter had boon unusually severe. ,
il the hardship was too much for the
[ 'ailing stronth of old Caribou , llo was
obliged to give up work on Ins claim ,
mil lay for several days m a fever at his
: > rimitivu homo , llo continued to grow
ivorse until Iho faithful daughter became
nlarmed for his life and sent for young
'loath as Iho only friend of her father.
iVhcu the young man entered the qabin
10 found her weening by the bedside of
old Caribou , who was apparently dying.
She blushed as ho came up loher and her
'ovoly faeo was suil'iiSed with a deep
: olor , which , together with the large
ustronscyes , told thn secret of her heart.
In that one moment ho road his futo and
* no\v that ho had won his qnccn without
word. The silent love of months had
u unconsciously until it was the ono
dream of two lives. Old Caribou called
ho young man to him and tried to speak
n reference to his daughter , but
its tongue was paralyzed. As if
tivfning his thoughts young Heath
loliberatidy asked for the daughter in
narriage , at thusamo limo cxplaning. his
position in the world and rovoalimr his
dentity. Caribou smiled sarcastically as
istenod to the cloqnonl appeal , and mo-
: ioncd for a pencil and paper , upon
ivhich ho wrote : "Virgio , toll him all ,
and if ho then desires to make you his
marry him. " After the old 'gentle-
n in's demise ho was quietlv buried , and
Heath was loft alone with the Uaribon
liieeii. Ono pleasant night she told him
ilio history of her father's lifo , the details
> f whinh are irrelevant to this narrative
ind arc best unrelated. Sullicc it lo say ,
'lowcvor ' , that old Caribou was an ex-
bank president of San Francisco , who
had become involved in mining stock
speculation , and \yas obliired to lleo
ihe country. Love is beyond the com-
: iion principles of lifo that regulate
lie laws of social standing , and young

disgrace in his grave. A few weeks
: iftenvurd the Caribou Queen was marled -
led to Charles Heath , of ileathdule.ling-
iuul. It must not be supposed that she
wis without a dowry , for the rumors of
"Old CaribouV wealth wens well foiiHil-
ud , and within his treasure"bag many a
shining nugget bore pvidenco-of his. suc
cess. In fact , the claim was so rich that
yoniiK Heath concluded to remain an
other year nnd work It ere returning to
Kugland with Laity Heath. A now home
was built , and despite the marriage the
Caribou Queen was the ideal of many
miners , who were satisfied with ono
glance at her lovely face A year passed
.ind Caribou began to wane , the immi
gration ceased , and those who only had
moderate success loft the cam ] ) for tlie
jicw excitement on Skecne river. About
this time an event happened in Caribou
that created a great 'sensation. A
young miner called at Heath's cab
in regarding certain claim mut
ters , and lo his astonishment , tlie queen
appeared with a little b.abu in her arms ,
upon whom she gazed .with that indescribable
scribable- mother love wo have all known
once in our infancy. The news spread
throughout the camp that night , and the
occasion was duly celebrated al Opnen-
heimer's by u jollification , during which
many a toast was drank for the little
prince and liis mother. During the next
fall the sad event happened which caused
theestuto of Hcuthdulo to go into chan
cery. Charlie Heath was killed by fall
ing rocks in n drift of old Caribou's '
claim , and his boMy was never recovered ,

have never since been heard from. It is

agent is now in Hriti.sh Columbia , and if
