s "is V CHAPTER X. (Continued.) "Better send the young people to fced, it 13 now daylight almost," suggested the elders, and they carefully pvoided looking at each other. That some terrible calamity had happened even Lady Jane, -whose first fear had been that the bride had run away, was fully convinced. "But, Leila, you will stay by me?" jjuavered the mistress ot the house, puddenly transformed Into a brokenpäown old woman. "I will, dear aunty," gravely said keila. "I shall see little Syb safe in ted, then I shall return to you." Leila Desmond, slenderly graceful, ott and caressing, womanly to the finger-tips, was yet one of those loyal, strong natures we turn to lean upon In the "day of trouble." Gervis gave her one look of reverence, then he placed his arm round that mother for wuorn he and this "perfect woman, nobly planned" had sacrificed themselves so fatally. Every Lour was bringing home to him the terrible blunder he had made In his life. Love between man and woman was God-given, to be prized as sacred; but under the specious pretext of sacrificing himself for the good of his house, he had torn love from his heart, and then sold that empty shell for gold. That it had been a bitter, sinful bargain he now knew. Perhaps this impending calamity which he was helplessly waiting for the new day to discover might be heaven's punishment for what he had ione. It was still and quiet in the old houe. There was a lull of expectancy until the daylight should come to allow action to be resumed. In Leila's room it was silent as the grave. Beside the white-draperied bed knelt Leila herself. She was praying, with frightened tears now no one was by to see them praying earnestly for the hapless girl who had shadowed her life. That something dire had happened Leila instinctively knew; but all she could do was to pray for help from above. "Leila! Sis!" A hoarse, shrill "voice made her spring to her feet. Close at her side stood Syb, shivering in her little blue dressing-gown, ber face working convulsively. "I can't keep it from you any longer! I dare not, though I do hate her fio!" the deformed girl was saying, her teeth chattering as much from terror a3 from col J. "Speak, Syb!" Leila gripped the thin wrist, her breath coming thick and fast. Syb knew, then! "I heard a cry. a smothered scream from the old oak chest, as I walked round the gallery; but I hated her so that I would not speak before! And "When I saw you, through the open door between our rooms, praying with sobs. I knew It must be for her. So I must tell, and you'd better be quick!" Syb slipped to the floor in a swoon. But Leila was already gone. With flying feet she was rushing downstairs from the third floor, where her bedroom and Syb's were. "Gervis! Gervis! Come, and come quickly! Bring Barnes!" When she had reached the gallery she shrieked loudly. Her voice, sharp with fear, rang through the old house and made Gervis leap to his feet. "It's Leila! She has found out something! Mother dear, stay here, I pray 70u!" He pressed Lady Jane back on her seat. "No one knows what we hxve got to face!" "Bring Barnes! Oh, be quick!" Leila's voice cried again in an agony of haste. Barnes, the white-haired old butler, was stiff and rheumatic. It seemed as though he would never reach the top of the wide, crimson-covered staircase, and yet the old man was doing his best, thou eh Gervis would fain have dragged him up two steps at a time. "Where are you, Leila?" he hoarsely houted. "Here! here! Quick!" Round the curve of the gallery they found Ixila, tearing frantically the holly and moss decorations from what had br-en a bank of greenery. The blood was trickling down her hand3 and wrists, as the holly tore them cruelly. But, unconscious of pain, Leila continued to pull, until the old blar.k-oak chest, which had been the foundation of the green bank, was displayed. "Press the sprinjr. Barnes! Nobody In Temple-Dene knows th secret but you. Press, for Gladdy's dear sake!" panted the girl, madly rxsi ie herself. "Whatever " Barne3 was beginning, and fumbling with hi3 spectacles. "Man, do as you're bid!" shouted Gervis, catching the infection of Leila's frenzy. And he dragged Barnes forward. Something In his blazing eyes made the old man pull himself together. He stooped forward. With shaking hands, he felt along the carvings; but how slow he was! The watchers caught their breaths and shivered. " 'Tis In the shamrock, I do mind trie. 'Tis b'und to be In the shamrock, the spring," he was muttering. In an instant Leila was on her knees, and there, among the carved loaves and flowers of oak, was a single dainty snamrock. It was the spring! Pressing It hard as she could, the carved lid clicked as It opened about an Inch. Then Gervis, with strong arms, forced it back on its hinges, and A muffled cry broke from his lips. CHAPTER XI. Lying huddled in the musty chest was a little figure In gleaming silver brocade, stained here and there with bunches of crushed holly berries. It was Gladdy, stiffened and Immov

'Tain't death!" quickly said old Barnes, glancing at their white faces. "See ye, Mr. Uervis, there's a row of air-holes down each side o'.the chest. I saw 'em made mj-self in the old squire's time, purpose-like, in case o' this very kind o' thing that's happened now!" But Gervis was not listening. He and others who had rushed to the gallery were carefully lifting the small, stiffened form. A mounted groom had already been dispatched for a doctor. "But something must be done at once," said Gervis, as they laid the unconscious girl on an Indian rug on the polished floor of the gallery. Somebody was trying to force brandy through the marble white lips. "Not a drop will go down! What are we to do until the doctor comes?" piteously cried Leila, who, kneeling down, had slipped her arm under the little sunny-brown head. "Fetch Mr. Ansdell!" commanded Gervis, with a sudden inspiration. Surely the American could give some help in the prtssing emergency, otherwise, what was the value of his socalled scientific reputation? ' Mr. Ansdell! Everybody then remembered that, oddly enough, the scientist had not been once seen during the hours of anxious search. It was curious, to say the least of it. And still more curious did it appear that no Mr. Ansdell hurried to the gallery in answer to the summons. "Never mind, here's young Doctor Goring himself, which is better," ejaculated Lady Jane, who had struggled upstairs more dead than alive from sheer fright, and looked on helplessly. "It's a trance!" at last pronounced the doctor, a young man. with all the latest medical and scientific theories at his finger-ends. "She has been hypnotized! Who has done this mischief?" He stood up and glanced round upon the awe-struck group sternly. There was no answer, and Doctor Goring went on wrathfully: "Somebody has got to answer for this night's work! The poor young lady has been brought to death's door, evidently, by some vile experiment. Now, then, clear out of this every one of you! Excuse my bluntness, Lady Jane, but this is not a moment for polite speech. I've got a life to win back if I can, and I can't have a crowd round me. Your ladyship can remain, and, yes, I must have Miss Desmond, if I've anybody." One by one the spectators departed from the gallery, and the young medical enthusiast set to work, with the result that in a quarter of an hour Gladdy feebly opened her lips and spoke. "I want Leila," was the whisper. And when she saw that it was Leila herself who was supporting her head the bride's round eyes closed contentedly. "She will sleep now. We must carry her to her bed," said Doctor Goring, well satisfied. "You are wanted, sir, at once," came an urgent whisper; while Gervis, lifting his wife in his arms, carried her away. "What! another case?" The doctor wheeled around, and he was silently beckoned to the quarter of the house known as the bachelors' wing. Lying back in his chair in front of a writing table, and grasping a folded paper, was a dead man. The room was in perfect order. There had been no assault, no murder, no suicide, so far as one could judge at the moment. But that death had entered the halfopen stare of the black eyes, the dropped jaw, and the marble hue of the long, lean fingers gripping the sheet of paper spoke all too clearly. little wonder that Paul Ansdell had failed to join in the search for the missing bride, failed to obey the summons for his helpful skill. "He has been dead quite a couple of hours," said Doctor Goring gravely, secretly wondering what would be the outcome of this double tragedy. "You must keep this business from the ladies as long as you can," he said, turning to Gervis, who had been hastily sent for. "There must be an inquest, of course; and, meantime, I should take possession of that folded paper. See, I've managed not to tear it. You'd best lock it away until you hand it to the coroner, Mr. Templeton." "Why," gapped Gervis, as he caught sight of the close, upright handwriting, "my wife wrote that! What villainy is this? See here!" "It was the last will and testament of Gladys Templeton, and, in correct legal form it assigned everything the testator possessed to Paul Ansdell of Montreal, revoking all former wills and codicils. The document wat duly signed, and the signatures and ad dresses of two Americans were appended. Not a flaw was there from beginning to end of the deed. "You hold the key that unlocks the whole of this night's mystery," briefly said the young doctor. "This unfortunate man must be a reckless adventurer, whose wits have put In his hands a most dangerous weapon. He is, we will discover, a criminal hypnotist, a so-called scientist, seeking some tool to further his own ends. Yea. yes; you'll seo we'll find out that's what he Is was, I mean," said the medical man. He was right In his surmise, as the inquest brought out, bit by bit, partly from papers belonging to the dead man, partly from the unwilling evidence of Gladdy. who had been more or less under hypnotic Influence since the night of the flro In the snow-shed. As for the villain's own death. It was proved to be from natural causes, and due to long-standing heart disease.

that caused a breakdown at the crucial moment of his career. But the jury's verdict was the popular one "By the visitation of God," Five years have passed away. So many changes have happened to Temple-Dene and the Templetons that Lady Jane has come to look back upon the days when she wore faded silks and lived a sorely pinched life aa the happiest she ha3 known. Today she no longer wears her favorite blue, for Francis Templeton has gone to his grave, his heart eaten out by the melancholy nothing would dlapel. So Lady Jane wears widow's weeds and has learnt the old lesson that "contentment is great gain." The dainty American bride, so fragile and highly strung, never managed to weather the repeated shocks to her frail system. Like a broken flower she withered, until decline set In. In Leila's tender, supporting arms, her weak hands clinging tight round Leila's soft throat, Gladdy died peacefully. "Take care of my Gervis, Leila. You will do It better than I," with the wondrous intuition of the dying she whispered at the last. And now that the years have gone round, Gervis begins to think It 13 time I?ila was taking care of him. Between the two there Is a perfect understanding, and by and by their wedding bells will ring out; for though "sorrow endureth for the night, Joy is bound to come in the morning." (The End.)

WICKED CITIES. Hold Burglars ami Highwaymen a,r 'umeroiit In Gay Paris. Highway robberies have multiplied of late in Paris to so alarming an extent that it is scarcely an exaggeration to say that we live at present under reign of terror. Every morning the papers publish a fresh list of victims, says a correspondent in the London Pall Mall Gazette. The main thoroughfares are ' somewhat safer, of course, than the more out of the way streets, but even on the chief boulevards the belated pedestrian runs no inconsiderable risk as soon as the rush of traffic from the theaters is over. Bagshot Heath in the palmiest days of highwaymen must have been a delectable spot after dusk compared with some of the most respectable districts of Paris at present. In the olden days you were at least allowed to save your skin by parting with your purse, whereas the modern Parisian footpad does his best In nine cases out of tern to murder his victim either before or after he has robbed him. The unspeakable ferocity of the Parisian ruffian is, perhaps, the ugliest feature of the situation. He 13 seldom or never content with merely easing the "pante" of his property. His usual mode of proceeding is to begin by half killing his prey as the readiest way of preventing anything In the nature of resistance. Revolvers, knives, bludgeons, "os de mouton" and knackle dusters do their work effectually before there Is any question of securing the booty. Time after time it is the same old tale. The police come up, either attracted by the scuffle, or long afterward, on their beat, to find an unfortunate creature lying in a pool of blood, dead or in desperate straits. But there have been Innumerable examples of late of violence being resorted to solely with a view of satisfying the most fiendish Instincts of cruelty. On the whole, the police do what they can, but there are far too few of them. Even when they catch their quarry red-handed, which is the exception, as their rounds are few and far between, they are usually outnumbered and outarmed. Instances are common of their showing great bravery, but, as a rule, the best that happens is that they capture one or two of the ruffians, while the others make good their escape. Fortunately, the detectives supplement their efforts to excellent purpose. When one or two members of a gang are arrested their accomplices are generally run to ground before long. The trouble 13 that the supply of desperadoes seems to be inexhaustible. One band is no sooner under lock and key than another is rivalling its exploits. Still Digging for Gold. Mrs. Sarah MacDonald, a prominent club woman of New York, who went to Alaska three years ago In search of a fortune, writes to a friend that she was at the time of writing, packing up to leave Nome, where she has been for the last two months, to start for the southern part of Alaska. She was goin with a party to open a new ramp and mining district. She Is to be the recorder, and she declares that she has great prospects and greater expectations. She will be In this comparatively unsettled country all winter. Mrs. MacDonald was chairman of the executive committee of the New York Women's Press club when she left. Her goodby was, "I'll never come back unless I strike it rich." Her address now Is Muchagak, via Bristol Bay. Food' Lowr4t Daily VoU By actual r xperienco the Rusklnltes, a colony of socialists near Waycross, (la., have demonstrated what Is probably the lowest possible daily cost of food. They live at an actual cost per capita of less than 10 cents a day. Of course this could not have been accomplished except through co-operation. Everything they consume la bought at wholesale In large quantities and Is cooked in the community. In the community dining room tables are set for 300 people. Those who do not wish to eat with the crowd are allowed the privilege of purchasing company stores and cooking them at home. Ancient Iei In IMilladolptiU. The first deed conveying property to the proprietor of Pennsylvania, Willlam renn, Is written In old Dutch, and is now preserved In the city hall. The property was what Is now known aa Lemon hill, including the mansion and the Schuylkill river front, where the old Fairmount waterworks wm located. There Penn kept his barge and some rowboats, the barge carrying an admiral's pennant. It Is said there is only one man in Philadelphia who oftQ read this deed.

POPULAR IDEA.

Municipal Ownership Finding General Fator AcroM tha Ilorder. Woodstock, Ont.. Is a city of 10.000 inhabitants. While not a larg? place it is very progressive. Some time ago the Woodstock Electric Light Company was called to sell its plant to the city, and after demurring the deal wa3 eltected and the business was passed over to the municipality. Hereafter the plant will be run as a city undertaking. Kingston, Ont., with a population of 20,000, has notified the Kingston Light, Heat and Power Company of its intention to. proceed in a lawful manner to arbitrate to acquire the whole plant. The company's contracts expire in 1901. The property, valued at 1300,000, will probably soon be in the possession of the municipal authorities. If Kingston can own its electric light plant there 13 no reason why Bridgeport should not also go Into the same kind of business. The city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, has been carrying on its electric light plant very successfully during the past year. Consumers are receiving a cheaper and better service that when a private cjrporation was in control. PRESIDFNT OF PRESIDENTS. A IIttngiiihMl Lady Indeed, I Mrs. Mary K. Toole, of Wblting, Iinl. Whiting, Ind., Feb. 4. 1001 (Special.) The Presidents of the Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic have an association composed exclusively of the Presidents of the different State Associations. This Presidents' Association chooses a President, and to this very high and distinguished position Mrs. Mary E. Poole of this place has been elected. Mrs. Poole is thorough;' deserving of this great honor. Her devotion to the interests of the Association is very marked, and her experience with the old soldiers of the G. A. R. is wide. Mrs. Poole is never slow to take advantage of anything that may benefit the veterans, and her zeal has resulted in much that is good to these grand old men. She writes of her experiences: "Honor to wnom honor is due, and having seen the numerous cure3 effected through the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills, I gladly endorse them as being particularly effective to cure that dreaded disease of so many of our old soldiers, Bright s Disease and Kidney Disorders of different kinds. Kidney Disease soon poisons the entire system, and as a result the vital organs are attacked, and I have found that no remedy so surely, completely and quickly finds the weak spot and heals it as Dodd's Kidney Pills. "I have used them myself in slight attacks of biliousness and indigestion, and usually find that from three to four pills do the work." Such evidence from a lady of so much distinction and experience should convince any sufferer from Kidney Trouble that Dodd's Kidney Pills Is the remedy that never fails. 50c a box, six boxes for $2.50.

De Wet told thorn he had an important dispatch for General Rundle and if they would undertake to deliver it they would be liberated. All three gave their words of honor to deliver the letter, which was as follows: "Dear Sir: Please Ciain up these thre devils, as I catch them every day. Yours, De Wet."

Honor to W liom Honor I Due. The railroads have been greatly abused aa soulless corporations that were grinding the life blood out of the people. The great Galveston disaster ha3, however, revealed the fact that

i tbo managers of these corporations j have hearts which are susceptible of being touched by the cries of distress. Their trains were placed at the disposal of all those engaged In relief work on the coast. Provisions and supplies were carried forward free of charge, committees from every section of the state were furnished transportation, and when the refugees from Galveston began to pour into Houston and It became a serious question what was to be done with them the railroads solved the problem by furnishing transportation without charge to all who wished to leave and to any point they wished to go. Grand Master Anderson informs us that but for this fact Houston would have been overrun with people who had to be cared for, and that suffering and distress would have been largely increased as well as the cost of moeting conditions which would have prevailed. Pro. Anderson desires us, through these columns, to thank the different roads for the great service rendered his committee at Houston. If it were possible we would be glad to see parallel columns, in one of which should appear the acts of these railroad corporations in a time of great calamity and distress, and In the other the amount contriluitcd by the little two-by-four deniajroiics who are always trying to array the prejudices of the masses against any and every kind of enterprise.
