It was six o'clock when Donald |

that Donald should l>o at tho mills on

fusion tho cards woro got on out. and

Tho young couple were to stay at
the old Cameron place in Now York
till Marmaduke Cameron ahould re-
turn, hts Western affair* all settled.
Then the*- were to tako a long de-
lightful trip through Kuropo.
Finally amid a shower of rico nnd
old shoot laughter aud kisios. the
young couple drove away lo tho sta-

They positively coulil not got sents
together. F'or a time Donald sat ou

The noxt place to tho Cainorons had
boon lately bought by a wealthy Wost-

formerly noted for its simple, old-
lime dignity, was converted into tho
1 vulgar show placo of a rich man. Tho
house glenmed from afar with lonion-
huod paint; turrets aud towers jutted
out everyv. boro. Flowers and statutes
and fountains wore thrown all over
the lawns in a period disregard of

must come out all right Gieo told

A SPANISH ELECTION.
A New I (let ku the Way of Political
Schemes.
The Spanish regard for a fine
bull is well kuown. V'ery oTten the
animals of the bull-ring are as fr.m-
ous as tho toreadors, says the Youth’s
Companion. According to a report
in a Spunish paper this regard for
tho bull was put to a very new and
singular use in a town of tho province
of Toledo recently. An election was
being held in the little town of Oro-
posa, where tho ministerialists or
govern me nt party, and tho Carl is ts.
or Spanish * old liners. ” were nearly
of equal strength. Each party, there-
fore. was trying to prevent the other
from polling its full vote.
Tho polling had gone on. without
any apparent majority on either side,
until nearly the end of the day. All
at once all parties were greatly inter-
ested in tho appearance of a superb
bull, lead by a countryman, exactly
before tho door of tho voting booth.
Everybody took an interest in him.
l’reaently it was observed lhat as
certain voters approached the door
cl the booth tho bull made a lunge
toward them. Ibis frightened thorn
?o that they took to their heols and
did not dare to approach tho door
again.
But when certain other voters camo
up the bull stepped back politely and
let them enter. In course of time it
turned out that all the voters who
had boen frightened away wore min-
isterialists and all those who had been
allowed to voto wore Carlists.
When it was too late to change tho
nwult, and tho Carl ists had carried
tho day in Oroposa. it camo out that
the supposed countryman was a < ral-
ist ••heolor” in disguiso. and that, by
means of a braddod stick concealed
undor his flowing cape, ho goaded
the bull forward whenever a minis
terialist approached and urged him
backward when a Carlist hove in
sight
much damage could be dona If the
feeder should break and fall to the
ground it would emit a blaze which
would prove a warning to tho passers
by.
