Dolly, from childhood upward, had been intimate"wltk Jack, and they loved each other with all the ardor of their romantic young natures.

Betty sailed, and in a Few days he w%s out In mid o»ean, and, absorbed in his new duties, he scarcely ever thought of Dolly.

During the dfljr *Wtfwaa oa?ui!ied, *nd at night he felt so wearied that he was glad to kiss her mVaiature, invoke a blessing on her pretty head and fall ft9l66P»

Dolly waited 1ft vain for a letter, and' for the time being proved the old ada$e that ab*eno* conquer* love, by again mingling with society and resuming her «way over the too susceptible hearts of the village beaux,

The "oue little twelve-month" elided away and Jack came not. Then Dolly's t9nder heart reproached her tor the gaiety she b*d indulged In, and as week after week passed by and uo letter cauoe she grew so pale and ttua that ber father proposed sending her to th% Jiaiubrio^s climate on tb*i coast.

One of the most constant escorts Dolly had waa one James Harris, a bachelor of «reat wealth, who owned half the village.

One evening he requested of Mr. Page permission to woe his daughter, which was very graciously accoraei-. and the next d^y Dally received the following note: "DSAR MISS PI —I hare long felt the loneliness of my position, but had met no woman likely to suit my quiet hat "N and 'ber ola fashioned tastes un I had pleasure of meeting you.

The note wan rather amusing to Dolly, and she carried it down to her father's •tudy.

"Oh, papa." she exclaimed, banding it to bim, **aee how I am honored." Mr. Page read the note, aufi, glancing at bis daughter's laughing faoe, said severely "It Is an honor, Dolly. I have no doubt but what your heart has been touched by Mr. Harris' evident devotion. Ah, you would be queen of the town if vou married bim, my dear child." "Queen here!" echoed Dollyrseoruful•

Certainly. You can't expeet to rival the titled Raines of London. Julius Cseaar said, once upon a time, he would rather be first in a village than seoondln Rome." "Papa, do you want me to marry Mr. Harris?" cried Dollv, in amazement.

Mr. Page frowned. "Of course, my child. You will be the richest, the happiest,, the most hon

One evening in and, a' handsome, distinguished looking young fellow walked up to the bar of the Humbledon Arms, the leading inn of the village, and, requesting a glass of rum ahd water, sat down at one oi the side tables-, and as be slowly sipped his liquor he glanced over the top of bis newspaper at the assembled company. He seemed desirous of conversing, and the landlord, after eyeing him with some curiosity, murmured a surmise about his being from loreign parts. "Yes, air, you're right," said ttfe roung man, entering into conversation .mmediately. "I have been a sailor. I was' once well acquainted with a young fellow by the name of Clifford, who was from this town.

Possibly she remembered the compliments Jack bad paid ber on the auburn loftks that hung About ber ears. "We all knew Jaok Clifford, a very good boy. Mischievous, but better by far than some oT these cantin', long faced hypocrites," said the landlord, izing sternly at a melancholy, Uriah -«*p styje of a man. who was known ae the worst ohioken thief and the most regular attendant at church throughout the country. "Well, this friend of min»—tbia Jaok —was constantly raving about a certain Dolly Page. Is sbe still here? or has she married and gone away?"

There was quite an anxious tone in this last question, and the stranger eagerly leaned forward to hear the answer. "She is married, but hadn't l.o husband," replied the landlord enlgmatically. •Ah, do you mean—is ber husband dead?"

Yes,, sir, and her tether, too. After the letter's death sbe married James Harris, the fnillionaire, and they went up to London town. In one year he died, and *be oame down here again, where she is the pride ol our 4v" the joy of her friends."

The stranger opeped the conversation with a few worn out remarks on the state of the weather. Then, as the widow surveyed bim witn well bred surprise dipicted on her lovely face, he said, in a earelesa way "I suppose, madam, that you are wondering what the object of my visit can be? I have just come«from our mutual friend, Mr. John Clifford." "Jack! Is be not dead?" cried Dolly, stattlhg from her seat. "I—I beg your pardon, sir!" she added. "But lie was a quite a friend nf mine.

A quiet wedding followed the ftineral, and Mr. aud Mrs. Harris topk possession of an elegant villa on the Thames, at Richmond.

James Harris believed that he rendered his wife happy, but never, was man more mistaken. He bad a fault finding disposition, and was the worst kind of a wet blanket, so it rtay naturally be supposed that Dolly's mournful Bplrifs wtjre not enlivened, and that smiles were rarely seen on her -quiet classic features.

When they had been married a year, Mr. Harris was seized with a fit of apoplexy, which proved fatal. His widow, to whom he had left the bulk of his immense fortune, immediately sold her 'house and returned to her old home in Humbledon, where she played the p^rt of Lady Bountiful to the entire village. Gradually har cheeks became rosy, and her eyda bright, her gentle laugh and witty discourse' were again beard in the elegant assemblies she called together, ana some persons even asserted that if the right man came along Dolly would willingly change her nametlpr the second time.

TBRRE HAUTE SATURDAY E-V-ENlNGr MAIL-

A Treasury Romance.

kltftaf Rayne sat in the veranda and whistled "Within a Mile of Edlnboro' Town," while John Fenwlek sat In the parlor tpcl scowled fiercely at the portrait of that youqg lady hanging over the haantel. But scowling didn't seem to have any effect on the j&rtrait, and his sBgeraeemed to haveabout as much on the original.

The truth of the matter was there had been a lover's quarrel. They bad been engaged for pix months. That had been along time for Kitty to keep ber flirting propensities in oheck. But she bad done it, and eongratalated herself on the victory she had gained. Why is that just as soon as we tbTnk we have ourselves under control, something comes along to tempt us, and in a good many oases we find we are not masters of ourselves after all. I don't know why it is, am sure. Kitty didn't either. But just about the time she began to plume herselY on ber conquest Carl Davenport came along,and straightway up popped the old penchant for flirting. It seemed to her sbe couldn't held flirting with Davenport. He was handsome and jolly, and there was something about bim which seemed to dare ber, Sbe knew John wouldn't like It, that people would talk,, and that her mother would institute a course of daily lectures—but sbe kept on flirting.

John did oare, and by and by he spoke' to her about it. "You aren't jealous, I hope?" sbp said. "I'd never nave thought that Of you, JobnFenwick never." "No, I am not] jealous," he replied. "But I don't like to see you so thoughtless. Would you like to have me flirting with Miss Powell or Miss Covert as you flirt with Mr. Davenport?" "Oh, I shouldn't oare the least In the world," she laughed back. "It's real fun, John. Try lt and see."

That was all the satisfaction he got then. By and by he touched on the sub ject again, and they oame near having a lovers' quarrel. But John, who had a horror of lovers' quarrels, bad the good sense to stop belore they got to angry word) But now th0 quarrel had come in dead earnest. For half aa hour there bad been a tempest raging in the parlor. Kitty took up her position on the veranda and whistled to show how little she cared, and she scowled. To listen to her, he concluded at that particular moment ber sole object la lite was to see how manyruns aud trilla and otberembellisbments she could get into "Within a Mile of Eflinboro' Town." #'ai*rr-

At length he went out to her/ I want to come to some understanding In the matter," he said. "I'll tell you what you must do. Either stop flirting with Davengortt or—" "Or break off our engagement, is that it?" she asked with a balf flush in her cheeks. "Precisely," he answered, gravely. "I have borne it as long as I can. If you really care for him, of course it is muoh better for us to understand the matter. It you don't care for him, I have aright to nsiat—1' j" You insist!" she cried, with flasbing eyes. "You insist! I'd have you'understand, John Fenwick, that neither you nor any btber man can order me to act according to your sovereign will and pleasure. I shall do just as I please, sir." "Very well," he answered, sternly. "You understand the consequences, then." "I do," she said, scornfully. "You need uot wait for them. You can have your freedom now. Here's your ring keep it for soma woman who will allow herself to be dictated to, and will come and go at your royal will. Good morning, sir."

And then she went in and shut the door in his face. Kittle, from behind the curtain, saw him go away without once looking Vack. "To dare to tell mo what I must do, or must not do!" abe cried. "I'll show him!"

By and by better thoughts came to her. "I suppose I was to blame," sbe said, reluctant to acknowledge it even to herfeelf. "But he needn't have«made a fool of being jealous of nae. He ought to have known that I didn't care for the goose of a Davenport but men can^t see an inch ahead of their noses. I'll let •him think I'm mad for awhile, and when he's bad time to be ashamed of himself, I'll come around a little and be good, and everything will turn out

Kittie's plan was good enough, but it failed to work. When she got ready»to take John back Into her good graces he had gone away, aad she didn't know where. The days slipped by, and Kittle hoped he would come Dack or writer but ber hope was a vain one. He had evidently taken her at ber word, and henceforth they were to be strangers to each, other.

And I was the only one.to blame," sobbed Kitty. "It was my doing, and I loved him."

It was a drowsy summer day. The wind was languid with waynth, and seemed to make a day more depressing in its Influence on the brain and body than it would have been if no breath of air had stirred the drooping leaves out side the open window.

Catharine Rayne stood at her desk in the treasury building at Washington, and went through her work in^ a mechanical* way. It was hard to keep her thoughtfon It this sluggish afternoon, when everything seemed ready to swoon for want of afresh breath of coolness to

r6A

grdat change had wftne into her life since she gave back John Fenwick's ring. A sudden collapse of the bank In which their money bad been deposited bad left her and ber mother dependent upon their hand's for* the bread they must eat and the clothes tbey must wear. It needed some such blow to bring out the stiength of her character.

A frl"i»d in Washington had procured her a clerkship in the .treasury department, and she had come there, bringing her mother, who was little better than an invalid. What she earned was enough to keep them comfortably, and she was thankful for that.

She had grown to be a grave and thoughtful wotiian. The years had come and gone sbj was thirty now, with silver threads begftmlng to show In her brown hair, and little lines of care about her mouth.,

In all these years she had beard but little of John Fenwick. She knew that be was getting to be a prominent man at tbe West. But that was about all. It had always seemed to her that they should meet again somewhere. Loving bim as she bad done, she felt what It is to lose, and in tbe bitterest way loss can ever oome to ns. Ever since they had known her In the treasury department sbe had carried that look of patient sorrow in ber eyea. "I am sure there must be some romance la Miss Rayne's past life," deelared Susie VBrnon. "I wish know what lt was." "She Isn't looking

There was a sound of volsea in the door, and one of thp treasury officers came in With some gentlemen. Visitors were so common that no one gave tbem bat a parting glance aa tbey entered, and tbep went on^as usual.

Catherine did not Jook up. But she became awiare, byaome subtle Influence, all at once, that some one was watohlng her. Sbe looked up and gave a little cry that was almost a sob. .. "Kittle!" It was John Fenwick's voice that spoke. It waa his hand tnat waa outstretched in welcome. "Haven't you a word Qf welcome for a fellow?" be said, looking downing ber face questioningly. "I am glad to see you, Jo bo," alms said, and then burst Into a sudden fit of weeping. "I have not forgotten in all these years," he said gravely. "Do you care for me, Kittle?"

She held up bsr band. He slipped tbe yellow circlet on her finger, and then and there before maiiy wondering eyes he kissed her. The weariness seemed to-have suddenly gone out of her face and life.

And Susie Vernon knew that there bad been a romance in Mies" Rayne's life, and tUat this was the beet and happiest part of it.

An umbrella figures in a recent Bo ton romanoe which might be termed "One Winter." As the suwy is told by a Hub correspondent ol a Detroit paper, on tbe afternoon of tbe 16th of last month, which was a stormy day, two people, with umbrellas tilted for#£rd, met in the driving storm. One was a hale and hearty gentleman of aboutflfty. years, and the other was a slight, little worfian, perhaps a year or two younger He was coming around the corner from the Washington street side she was going around the same corner from Winter street. Both wereln a hurry. Natural consequence, a sudden collision of utnbrellaa, tbe shook of which caused the little woman's feet to slip on tbe treacherous walk. The gentleman picked Jier up, thereby getting a good look at hei4 lace when, exchanging a few astonished exclamations, tbe pair recognized in eaeh other long-lost friends, aud walked off together. Thirty years ago sbe waa a factory girl in Lowell, and he was a medical student at Harvard. Both were poor in pocket, but rich in leve and hope he worked hard at study, and she worked bard to raise tbe money to help bim on through his course When the California fever broke out in 1849 be resolved to try a quicker .route to lortune, and started for tbe goldeu shore, sending back a letter of farewell to this young girl. Tbe upshot of tbe separation was that letters became less and lesa regu lar, and at lust there was silence.
