Were it hot fOr the idea that the strikers are "dictating" the company would not persistently refuse to change the superintendent. It is this idea which canass so much trouble.

This fact is apparent Whether or not the charges against the superintendent can be specifically substantiated or not, the fact remains ,.v that the men have no renpect and loss confidence in their superior.

Tkat Vfreauiit'* Inv«itla»«tow.' The recent investigation of charges against Firemen Wheatfill and Bilby, by the committee and which lead to Hlby's discharge deserves additional mention from the fact that, inadvertently a certain amount of injustice was done, not only the principals in that trial but other members of the department The charge against Wheatfill and Bilby was that they took oats, belonging to the city, from headquarters without permission. Wheatfill was wholly exonerated and immediately restored to duty. Bilby, bad the taking of the oats been the only cause for complaint would have been given "a jacking up" and returned to work. In his cascj however, there were a number of private bills against him which had been placed in the hands of the committee for collection and upon this, and for this reason, alone, he lost his head. It has been frequently the case on the department when tho men were going off on a fishing or hunting expedition and starting early in the morning with their own or hired teams they would provide tlemselves out of the public crib with several "feeds." This has been customary and heretofore been allowed. It has been simply an irregularity—nothing more—and it is this that the present committee will in future prevent. Chief Jones regretted Bilby's loss to the department and expressed himself to the effect that the department never had a better driver or one more careful and painstaking with his team, and tliat Bilby was "as good a man with horses as ever pulled a line over a horse's back."

A Big PtMtntoin Ship.

The largest phantom of the deep ever heard of was that of the old Frisians. This was the Mannigfual, which was so large that the captain had to gallop about on hontebaek to give his orders, and whose masts were so high that boys going aloft to attend to the sails came down gray headed men. It was in trying to pasw the Strait of Dover that this huge vessel scamped the rocks, and so made the white cliffs of Albion, And yet, perhaps, she was not so hugs after ail as the French phantom Chassc-Poudre. This vessel was so long that she took seven years to tack and her eshfas were the circumference of St Peter** dome. Twenty thousand men could maneuver on her maintop, and in order to n«»iHtekm the crew when seat aloft cAch hlcck was fitted up a» a tavern. But this phantom ship was manned by good and deserting mariners, who found little to do and plenty of meat and drink on hoard of her.—Chambers' Journal,

Some Odd Books.

At Wnracnstein, in Germany, there is perhaps one of tho most curiously original collections of books in the world. It is really a botanical collection. Outwardly each volume presents the appearance of a block of wood, and that is what it actually is but a minute examination reveals the fact that it is also a complete history of the particular tree which it represents.

At the back of the book the bark has been removed from a space which allows the scientific and the common name of the tree to be placed as a title for the book. One sido is formed from the split wood of the tree, showing its grain and natural fracture the other side shows the wood when worked smooth and varnished. One end shows the grain as left by the saw and tho other the finely polished wood.

On opening the book it IS found to contain the fruit, seeds, leaves and other products of tho tree, the moss which nsnally grows upon Its trunk and the insects which feed upon the different parts of the tree.

Thene are supplemented by a well printed description of the habits,, usual location and manner of growth of the tree. In fact, everything which has a bearing upon that

been found in the lako at park, Basingstoke, the seat of

Lord Alexander RusselL It had apparently met its death in the vain attempt to swallow one of its own species weighing nine pounds. The two fish, in the position in which they were found, are being stuffed at Winchester. Pike have died in this manner before, and it is doubtful whether or not these should bo regarded as in* stances of voracity or pure accidents. Pike, like many other fish, .frequently do battle, and It has been suggested that when two savage fish rush headlong at one another the smaller one might «wily enter the jaws of the larger. Once in there would be no getting out again, for the pike's month is lined with hundreds of sharp teeth, which, tike those of the shark, point throatward. As an undoubted instance of pikish voracity there is an unusually well authenticated record of a pike of two pounds first swallowing a taront of one pound, and shortly afterward, while the tail of the trout was still in Its throat, seising an artificial bait three and a half inches in length.—-Pall Mall Oasette.,.. us

TBRRfi fiAUTE DAILY

CHAPTKll XVIII—Continued. And though AelUo Tfhvers, noting the sudden silence, burst into an immediate and utterly irrelevant lament over the loss of the Maltese kitten—which had not been seen all that day

No woman could fail to read the story no woman could see his face, his eyes, his whole attitude and expression, and not read theiyin that old, old story that grows sweeter with every century of its life. That be jhould be inspired with sudden, vehement love for her exquisite Nell was something she could readily understand bat what—what meant her downcast eyes, the flutter of color on her soft and rounded cheek, the shy uplifting of the fringed lids from time to time as though in response to eager question or appeal? Heavens! would that train never come? The whistle was sounding in the distance, but it would take ages to drag those heavy Pullmans up tho grade from the bridge where they had yet to stop. She could almost have darted forward, seized her sister by tho wrist, and whispered again the baleful reminder that of late bad had no mention between them—"Thou art another's but in her distress her weak blue eyes sought her husband's face. He saw it all, and shook his head. Then there was nothing to be done.

As the train came rumbling finally into the station she saw him once more clasp her sister's hand then, with one long look into the Sweet face that was hidden from her jealous eyes, he raised his forage cap and stepped quickly back to where his horse was held. Her husband hastened to her sido: "Kate, I must speak to him. I dont care how he may take it. I cannot go without it."

They all watched the tall captain as be strode across the platform. Every man in uniform seemed to know instinctively that Rayner at last was seeking to make open reparation for the bitter wrong he had done. One or two strove to begin a general chat and affect an interest in something else for Mrs. Rayner's benefit, but she, with trembling lips, stood gazing after her husband and seemed to beg for silence. Then all abandoned other occupation, and every man stood still and watched them. Hayne had quickly swung into saddle, and had turned for one more look, when he saw his captain with ashen faco striding towards him, and heard him call his name. "By JoveP muttered Ross, "what command that fellow has over himself 1" for, scrupulously observant of military etiquette, Mr. Hayne on being addressed by his superior officer had instantly dismounted,and now stood silently facing him. Even at tho distance, there were some who thought they could see his features twitching but his blue eyes were calm and steady—far clearer than they had been but a moment agone when gazing good-by into the sweet face they worshiped. None could hear what passed between them. Tho talk was very brief but Ross almost gasped with amaze, other officers looked at one am other in utter astonishment, and Mrs. Rayner fairly sobbed with excitement and emotion, when Mr. Hayno was seen to hold forth his band, and Rayner, grasping ft eagerly in both of his own, shook tt once, then strode hastily away towards the rear of the train. Itis eyes were filled with tears he could not re press and could not bear to show.

That evening as the train wound steadily eastward into tho shadows of the night, and they looked out in farewell upon the slopes they hand last seen when a wintry pale swept fiercely over tho frozen surface and the shallow ravines were streaked with mow, Kate Rayner, after along talk with her husband, and abandoning her boy to the solo guardianship of his nurse, settled herself by Nellie's side, and Nellie knew that die either sought confidences or had them to impart. Something of the old, quizzical look was playing about the corner of her pretty mouth as her elder sister, witk feminine indirectness, began her verbal skirmishing with the subject It waa some time before the question was reached which led to her real objective: "Did he—did Mr. Hayne tell you much about Oancyr "Not mudi.

to bo found when they camo away—It was upelcss. The effort was gallant, but the flame in her cheeks betrayed her as, throwing his reins to the orderly who followed him, Mr. Bayne dismounted at tho platform and came directly towards her. To Mm Kayner's unspeakable dismay, ho walkod up to tho trio, bowod low over tho little gloved hand that was extended in answer to the proffer of his own, and next sho saw that Royce and Foster bad, as though by tacit consent, fallen back, and, coram publico, Mr. Hayne was sole claimant of the regards of tier baby sister. There waa but one comfort .in the situation: tho train was in sight. Forgetful, reckless for tho moment, of what was going on around her, Sho stood gazing at the pair.

"Knew bo wouldl Why, Nellie, what do you mean? He didn't tell you that ho waa to seo Capt Rayner. He couldn't have known." "But knew, Kate and I told him bow the captain had suffered." "But how could you know that he would shake Ixknds with him?" "He promised me," ?S

The silence was unbroken for a moment. Nellio Travers could hear the beating of her own heart as she nestled closer to her sister and stole a hand into hers. Mrs. Rayner was trying hard to be dutiful, stern, unbending, to keep her faith with the distant lover in the east, whether Nell was true or no B&t she had been so humbled, so changed, so shaken, by the events of the past few weeks, that she felt all her old spirit of guardianship ebbing away. "Must I give you up, Nell? and must he, too?—Mr. Van Antwerp?" "He has not answered my last letter, Kate. It is nearly a week since I have heard from him." "What did you write, Nellie?" "What I had done twice before—that he ought to release me." "And—is Clancy's the only confession ou have heard today?" '"Pie only one." A pause, then: "I know what you mean, Kate but he is not tho man to—to offer his loye to a girl he knows is pledged to another" "But if you were free, Nellie? Tell me." "I have no right to say, Kate but"— and two big tears were welling up into her brave eyes, as she clasped her bands and stretched them yearningly beforo her—"shall I tell you what 1 think a girl would say if she were free and had won his love?" "What, Nellie?' "She would say 'Ay.' No tfoman with a heart could leave a man who has bojno so much and come through it all so bravely."

Poor Mrs. Rayncrl Humbled and chastened as ehe was, what refuge had she but tears, and then prayer?

CHAPTER XIX.

He sprang

up and

went right out with AM.

Within the week succeeding the departure of the itayners and Miss Travers, Lieut. Hayne's brother-in-law and his remarkably attractive sister were with him in garrison and helping him fit up the new quarters which the colonel had rather insisted on his moving into and occupying, even though two unmarried subalterns had to move out and make way for him. This they seemed rather delighted to do. There was a prevailing sentiment at Warrener that nothing was too good for Hayne nowadays and he took all his adulation so quietly and modestly that there was difficulty in telling just how It affected him. Towards those who had known him well in the days of his early service he still maintained a dignity and reserve of manner that kept them at some distance. To others, especially to the youngsters in the —th as well as to those in the Riflers, he unbent entirely, and was frank, unaffected and warm hearted. He seemed to bask in the sunshine of the respect and consideration accorded him cm every side. Yet no one could say he seemed happy. Courteous, grave far beyond his years, silent and thoughtful, he impressed them all as a man who bad suffered too much ever again to be light hearted. Then it was more than, believed he had fallen deeply in love with Nellie Travers and that explained tho rarity and sadness of his smila To the women he waa the center of intense and romantfc Interest.

Mrs. Waldron was aia object of jealousy because of tire priority of her claims to his regard. Mrs, Hurley—the sweet sister who so strongly resembled him— was the recipient of universal attention from both sexes. Hayne and the Hurleys, indeed, would have been invited to several places an evening could they have accepted. And yet, with it all, Mr. Hayfte seemed at times greatly preoccupied. He had a great deal to think of.

To begin with, the* widow Clancy had been captured in one of the mmingtowxa, wbereshebadsoaghtrefuge, and brought badt by the civil authorities, neariy$3,000 In greenbacks having been found in her possession. Bhe had fought like a fury and proved too much for the thofffk posse when first arrested, and not until thnsedaysafter hear incareermtionwaslhe entire amount brought to light.

cured for at Mrs. Waldren's, Poor old C3ancywas buried and on the way to be forgotten.

What proved the hardest problem for the garrison to solve was the fact that, while Mr. Hayne kept several of his old associates at a distance, he had opesdy offered his hand to Rayner. This was something the Riflers could not account for. The intensity of his feeling at tho time of the court martial none could forgot the vehemence of his denunciation of the captain was still fresh in the memory of those who heard it. Then there were all those years in which Rayner had continued to crowd him to the wall and finally there was the almost tragic episode of Buxton's midnight visitation, in which Rayner, willingly or not, had been in attendance. Was it not odd that in the face of all these considerations the first man to whom Mr. Hayne should have offered his hand was Capt Rayner? Odd indeed! But then only one or two were made acquainted with the full particulars of Clancy's confession, and none bad heard Nellie Trovers' request Touched as he was by the night of Rayner's haggard and trouble-worn face, relieved as he was by Clancy's revelation of the web that had been woven to cover the tracks of the thieves and ensnare the feet of tho pursuerfe, Hayne could not have found it possible to offer his hand but when he bent over the tiny glove and looked into her soft and brimming eyes at the moment of their parting he could not say no to the one tiling she asked of him: it was that if Rayner came to say, "Forgive me," before they left, he would not repel him.

There was one man in garrison whom Hayne cut entirely, and for whom no aae felt the faintest sympathy and that, 3f course, was Buxton. With Rayner gone, lie hardly had an associate, though the esprit de corps of the —th prompted the cavalry officers to be civil to him when be appeared at the billiard room. As Mr. Hurley was fond of the game, an element of awkwardness was manifest the first time the young officers appeared with their engineer friend. Hayne had not set foot in such a place for five years, and quietly declined all invitations to take a cue again. It was remembered of him that he played the prettiest game of French carroms of allthe officers at the station when he joined the Riflers as -a boy. Hurley could only stay a very short time, and tho subalterns were doing their best.to make it lively for him. Some, indeed, showed strong inclination to devote themselves' to Mrs. Hurley but she was too busy with her brother's household affairs to detect their projects. .Hurley had turned very red and glared at Buxton the first timo the two met at the club room, but the bulky captain speedily found cover under which to retire, and never again showed himself in general society until the. engineer with the scientific attainments as a boxer as well as road builder was safely out of the post

And yet there came a day very soon when Mr. Hayno wished that he could go to Buxton's quarters. He had in no wise changed his opinion of the man himself, but the Rayners had not been gone a fortnight before Mrs. Buxton began to tell the ladies of the charming letters she was receiving from Mrs. Rayner—all about their travels. There were many things ho longed to Snow, yet could not ask.

There came to him along and sorrowful letter from tho captain himself, but, beyond a few matters relating to the company and the transfer of its property, it was all given up to a recapitulation of the troubles of the past few years and to renewed expressions of his deep regret Of the ladies he made but casual mention. They were journeying down tho Mississippi on one of its big steamers when he wrote, and Mrs. Rayner was able to enjoy tho novelties of the trip, and was getting better, but still required careful nursing. Miss Travers was devoted to her. They would go to Now Orleans, then possibly by sea around to New York, arriving there about the 5th of June that, however, was undecided. He closed by asking Hayne to remind Maj. Waldron that his copy of Clancy's confession had not yet reached him, and he was anxious to see it in full. "The one thing lacking to complete the chaln is Oower," said the major, as he looked up over his spectacles. "It would be difficult to tell what became of him. We get tidings of most of the deserters who were as prominent among the men as he appears to have been but I have made inquiry, and so has the colonel, and not a word has ever been heard of him since the night he appeared before Mrs. Clancy and banded over the money to her. He was a strange character, from ail accounts, and must have had some conscience after all. Do you remember him at all, Hayne?" "I remember him welt We made the march from the Bi& Horn over to Battle Butte together, and he was a soldier one could not help remarking. Of course I never had anything to say to him, but we heard he was an expert gambler when the troop was over there at Miners' Delight" "Of course his testimony isn't necessary Clancy and hiswife between them have cleared you, after burying you alive five years. But nothing but his story could explain his singular conduct—planning the whole robbery, executing it with all the skill of a professional jailbird, deserting and covering several hundred miies with his plunder, then daring to go to the old fort, find Mrs. Clancy and surrender every cent the moment he beard of your trial. What a fiend that woman was! No wonder she drove Clancy to

"Will you send copies of her admbnon with Clancy's affidavits?" asked Hayne. [to
