I flnf myself snylng unconsciously , though I usei to comfort my heart by revelling In my ad miration cf her rich costumes and slogan' ' homo , luxuries to which I never hopsil to as- plro , and often In my adoration of her love llness I would call her the queen of tin roxebud cardon , With her winsome face and luxuriant ttesses , rn which the sunshine was forcvoi comlnR and solng , > hc was queenly , nnd th ( fascination In the depths ot her eyes , thi color of dew-wet panslcs , was enough tc enthrall a more fastidious soul lhan mine for Leo Summerton had worshipped at lie ; shrine for a quartet of years. And she hac smiled on him encouraRlHRly. and It seemsc for once Uiat the course of trur love wai running exceptionally smooth , but "tho wel laid plans of mice nnd men gang oft aglcy. ' Early ono lovely Juno there came among u : a young artist , claiming to bo from the city and an Invalid. At any rst * . his stay nl Meadowslde , ho convinced them , was for hlf health and to obtain a few sketches ot roa ! rural scenery. He wau not n bad looking fel low In the main , yet , under his pleasanl exterior there lurlccd an ovll , deceitful nature , I felt sure. I said as much to Olivia ono evening as we loitered along the path across the fields. I had been to spend the day with her. anil she came homo with me as far as Pebble brook , \\hlch divided my humble home from her father's beautiful farm. "Olivia. " said I , "you arc forgetting Lcc Summerton allogcther , nnd the way you smllo on this evil-looking fellow promises nc good to you , either. " * "J'oolil" she answered , elevating her cycr brows as If surprised. "Lee really has nc claim on my affect Inns and Mr. Norcross Is our guest ; I must bo enlcrtalnlng Lee Sum- merlon , nolwllhslandlng. " She ullered this last In rather an uncer tain tone and with n decided shrug of hei pretty shoulders. She never had spokei so llghlly of her lover before and I did no' ' half like Iho seeming Infatuation for tlili ovll genius , .Norcross. Wo walked on foi sanio time In silence , she galhcrliig Etra ) daliiiey by the way and I busy thinking. "Look hero , Olivia , " I said , presently , " 1 don't want to Interfere wllh your affairs , ex- nelly , but you musl nol care for this fellow ho ID only a pretender , I verily bellovo , am' you should discountenance him. And whllt I am ppcaklng I may as well loll It all. " "Do ! " she cried , ' with much warmth am rising color , "mako him out anything you please. If it adds to , your satisfaction , but al ! you can say will not change my heart lo- ward Mr. Norcrosa' In Hie least. I may as well confess now that I prefer him to Lee Summorton already. " She shut her lips de > clslvelyhllo h'er fa'tr cheeks reddened ami paled alternalcly.1 I 'gazod at her In amaze' mcnt. " don't ' wllh recllal "Why you 'go on your Instead of looking al mo K > ? " she asked , prcacnlly. ! k I had forgollen for the moment what 1 had said , so great ' was my lll-conccalct chagrln at this confession. "Well , " BJld Ii recovering myself , "then Isn't much to s > ay aller you've gene so fai as that with a strangfar ; but , Olivia , did you pot notice , when wo loaslngly said to him that wo wore In receipt of letters of In quiry concerning'him ; how startled and how guilty. If I majv express myself plainly , lie appeared ? " , "No ! " she answered , bluntly. "Well , ho dldf > AndI've , noticed twice be fore that the receipt pf letters In your famllj rendered him unnecessarily nervoua. Anil aa tp .your preference , , , wJUen ao .S.timmertori Is In the L > alaiie , , > \vliy. I aik pained and surprised at your decision. To prefer this fellow , , of whom you know nothing , to an accomplished gentleman , whom you have known for years , Is absurd. I should nol think any sensible girl would do this fuollsl : thing , least of all Olivia Alcott. " "I am graleful , " she replied , "for your advlco and warning , but they como a lltllc too late , as oil good things do , I presume , for I love that 'fellow. ' " "Is your father willing for this change ? I asked , with a pain at my heart. "Father doesn't know of It in the least , nor mother , either ; It's my own Individual secret , wholly my own , Edith Klngsley , " turning away from mo and looking across the field toward the suns-el. I wanted to shake- her , but I only said : "For shame , Olivia Alcott ! To grieve the thrco beat friends you have , and , In the end , breik their hearts. Is something very wicked. ' " "You're puritanical , " she answered lightly Then added , coaxlngly ; "If I Invite you to my wedding , and prove to you that Lea Sum- merlon doeun't love me , you will think bet tor of me , will you not ? " "You never can prove anything of the kind , and as to attending your wedding , If celebrated with that rascally Norcross , why I'll never come ! " "Complimentary , I will admit , to my In tended husband , " she answered slowly , as she looked at me In a puzzled manner. "I am In earnest , nevertheless , " I retorted , bprlnglng over the brook , on the stepping slones , for wo had reached the dividing line. "And so angry with mo , too , " she- murmured , n a frightened tone , with n look of appeal on icr lovely face. "No , " I answered , "not angry , but terribly dlwppolnted In you , Olivia. 1 thought you : iad a beller heart , and were true. " "To Leo Summerton ? " she questioned. "Yes ; and to everyone elm , " I replied. "Well. 1 am sorry , " she said softly , kissing icr hand to me across the brook as usual , 'Oocd night. " And I answered my friend for the lust time acrpss the Ilttlo rivulet , 'Good night. " In the clover lot I met Leo Summorton , and his anxious face Irrltaled mo ay he asked : "Is Olivia at homo Ihla evening ? " Then Ihe spirit of evil took sudden pos session of me , nnd goaded by the memory of icr words , I burst out with , "Yes , take good care of her Invalid ? she has forgotlen her old nnd Iruo friends for that putty face. " "Oh , Miss Klngsley , " pleaded Lee , "do not nay such cruet things of MlM Alcott ; " lion hs asked hurriedly , "You don't believe she cares for him not In particular , do you ? " Ills face wore u look of entreaty as hli loncst eyes watched mo In earnest , rcsolule quesllonlng.

" "Oh , " she said , ncrvous > ! y , "I am going t Elton tonight on the evening train with Mr Norcross.

"Your parcntt nro going nlong ? " I couli not help but nsk. "No , " she nnswerod hurriedly , looklni nwny. "They don't know or even dream o my marriage tonight.

" BIO answered. "I shall not help you , " I cried , excitedly putting my bands behind mo for further em phasls. "I nm going homo. " "I might have known you would fall me , ' she sobbed , "when 1 need you the worst. " "I am going home , " I roltcrnled , taking m heed of her tcarsi "Don't tell molhcr , then , as you go down , she pleaded hyslerlcally , clulchlng my nnn. I wrenched awny from her , snylng : "Ploasi let mo alone. I am lee disgusted to pjy f word to your good mother. Good afternoon Miss Alcott. " "Oh , but you are pitiless nnd angry , Edith. I must marry Allan Norcross , because J love him so , nnd ho worships me. " "Don't apologize to me , Olivia ; go apolo gize to Lea Summerton ; apologize to yout own soul , " and I pulled away from her the second time nnd left the house abruptly , I was so dazed , so hurl , so excited tlint 1 hardly knew where I was going , when was It fate , nnd an evil one at that ? I met Leo Summerton by the brook. "You must not go over there , " I cried , "She Is going to bo married to that fellow , Norcross , Ihls evening , nnd her parents know nothing of It , cither. " I sank down on the mossy bank of Pebble brook nnd gave vent lo my ngcnlzod soul through n torrent ot lears. , "Oh God , no , " exclaimed Lee , staggering back ns It I had dealt him n blow. "An elopement ? " lie nsked , presently , looking down nt mo , whlto and fierce. "Oh ! yes ; nnd cannot you prevent II , Leo ? " I asked. Ah , luckless quesllon ! Ho Blood for n moment regarding me ; then , putting his right hand In his pocket , he withdrew It with a bltler smile of hatred and ser row. row."It shall never be ! I swear It to you , Miss Klngsley , " nnd ho turned on his heel and wns over the brook In nn Instant. I was certain I saw the gleam ot a weapon In his hand , and my heart seemed turning to stone. I went home sick , with n now nnd terrible fear ; nil night long I lay staring at the blank darkness and wondering vaguely If Leo meant to murder Allan Norcross. The next day nil Meadowslde was wild with excllement over the finding of the dead body of the artist. He had been found lying by the roadside nearMr. . Alcott's cottage , with a bullet hole through Ills temple. He had evidently fallen dead without even a struggle , and na the body had not been molested , the murder - dor had certainly not been committed for money. His purse and a line gold repeater were still on his person , and nolhlng had been dlslurbfd , someone musl have followed him tiom the city and killed Allan Norcross out of revenge , everyone thought. The whole circumstance was shrouded In mys- 'ery , however , and no ono remembered soe- ng any suspicious characters In the neigh borhood. The address of a friend wns found on n letler In his rooms at Meadowslde , and the lerriblo fate of the artist wns tel- egtnphed to the city. A man came nnd took the body back to the city with blm. "Too bad ! too bad ! " the stranger had said. "Too bad for Mrs. Nor- cross and the little one , but , after all , they're better off without him , as ho was a bad one , was Norcross , not fit to die In any way , let ting alone this way. Well , well ! " And the train moved off , carrying the dead body of Olivia Alcott's lover and some other be reaved woman's husband. Everybody thought that the mailer had been dropped , when suddenly It began to be whispered about that Lue Summerton might have committed the deed out of Jealousy , nnd finally sh&plclon shaped Itoclf into threats of arrest. I had not seen Lee slnco the parting by the brook , but what I know burned Into my brain until I thought I should lose my sanltr. No one seemed to Imagine Uiat I knew any thing of It ; perjtaps no one did , unless it may have been Olivia , but ever since the tragedy slier had been more dead than alive , seeing no one and talking to no one , but going about the cottngu duinb with grief and remorse , I hoped. One evening , being alone In my room , I heard a peculiar noise at the window. I started , then listened with bated brealh ; It was repeated ; a low , muffled tapping. The thought came to mo that H might be ono of the lltllo swallows which had fallen from Us nesit under the eaves , so I opened the blinds carefully to Investlgale. It was Lee Summerton slandlng there In the shadows , his frice white and drawn with pain nnd his eyes with rcstlces gleam that made me ehudder Involuntarily. "Why , Lee Summortou ! " I whispered , ns ho put Ills hand over his mouth to signal mo to silence. "I have , come to say goodbye , " ho said , resting his elbows on the fill. "They sus- poet me of killing Norcross , but they can't provo It , " ho muttered defiantly , "Then don't go away. Lee , " I said , taking hold of his arm , "You did not do U , did you ? " Ho gave mo ono long , searching look , and Ihcn answered In nn unsleady voice ; "I never should have Ihought of It , had it not boon for my maddening love for her , but you will not give me away , Kdltli ? " "Never ! Le 8 Summerton. Trust moj" "I do , " ho returned , quickly , "and that's why I rame here this evening , The way It has turned out , I saved Olivia , for he was n rascal. I nm going away until this blows over , anyway. I may not como back foi years ; perhaps never , as I have nothing to como back lo now. Hut I have saved her , and that's ono comfort to take nlong. 1 could not help ehoollng the villain , you see , because I loved her so. " His voice went down to n passionate sob , and he leaned Ills head wearily against the shutters. Presently he continued : "Here U i Utter I want you to glvo Olivia , with your own hands , " He emphasized the last four words nnd nent on : "I can never have the courage to go lo her ; It will tell her all all. " Ho crowded the well-filled envelope "Into my hand , saying ; "I trust you , Edith ; goodbye , " and had wrung my hand In partIng - Ing nnd disappeared In the deepening nlghl before I had llmei to even say a farewell. The suspicion , fctrcngthened by Lco'a mys- toilous disappearance , now threatened pur- bull , but no trace of him could 1)3 found , So completely had he hidden himself that after a few vain efforts all thoughts of proi- Dcullon were given up entirely. I gav the * inlEslvo to Olivia , who bunt Into bitter weeping at the sight of Iho su bscription , but she revealed nothing of II3 corleiita , nnd , of course , I did not question lier. She never mentioned Lee's name lo 1110 afterward , with one exception , and that uaa when we road in a western paper the names of those killed in a railroad disaster ; among them "L.

In the pate light of the electric lamps , you notice the wide nnd Inrpo streets , nnd the whole town feem i to bo of enormous proportions , lint this Illusion Is dissipated , or , at least , HltOmiatetl , when jou put up at the Transvaal hotel , the only hotel In the city. It Is n. llttlu one-story house , -with a.root like that of n cottngo. In reality , Pretoria Is neither a town nor n vlUage. It is an Inimensfc'imrU. ' Inwhich bouses , vll'ns and cottages lire Hcattcred. II Is" tlip npprowl- ate capital of a republic of peasants. The streets and avenues , which arc bordered by Rlgnntlc eucalyptus trees , nro.

"The climate Is extremely variable. The mornings arc sharp and cold , and Inter on the beat becomes intense. One would require to have the robust constitution of n Uoer to bo able to stand these pxtrnordl- nnry changes In temperature. In pummer the hall htorms nro extremely dangerous , because the hailstones are big enough to I Ul'l any cno outright who does not take i the precaution to run for Hhelter when the cloud appears. "In the centPr of the town Is a lltllo old Dulch church , around which aie prouped I the principal commercial houpcs and public I buildings , the government palaceor , as It j is called , the Palace of n Hundred Hooms. ] In which the Parliament nssemb'.cs , nnd a'KO the Ministerial departments , the burpnua of the president of the republic , the supreme court and HIP court of appeals.

By thn nidp of this there Is n modest tribune , upon which thn impsldrnt of the Volksrnnd Is seated. This gentleman , after 'Undo Paul. ' Is the chief cltly.en of the republic.
