CHAPTER II.—Continued.
"The big chap In the lead is my
friend Pickering." I answered, and
Larry turned his head slightly.
"Yes, I supposed you weren't look-
ing at the women," he observed dryly.
"I'm sorry I couldn't see the object of
your Interest. Bah! these men!"
I laughed carelessly enough, but I
•was already summoning from my
memory the grave face of the girl In
black,—her mournful eyes, the glint of
gold In her hair. Pickering was cer-
tainly finding the pleasant places in
this vale of tears, and 1 felt my heart
hot against him. It. hurts, this seeing
a man you hnve never liked succeed-
ing where you have failed!
"Why didn't you present me? I'd
like to make the acquaintance of a fow
representative Americans, — I may
need them to go bail for me."
"Pickering didn't see me, for one
thing; and for another he wouldn't go
bail for you or me if he did. He isn't
built that way."
Larry smiled quizzically.
"You needn't explain further. The
sight of tha lady has shaken you. She
remind.-? me of Tennyson:
" 'The star-like sorrows of Immortal
eyes—'
and the rest of it ought to be a solemn
warning to you,—many 'diew swords
and died,' and calamity followed In
her train. Bah! tlies > women! I
thought you were past, all that!"
"I don't, know why a inan should be
past it at 27! Besides, Pickering's
friends are strangers to me. Hut what
became of that Irish colleen you used
to moon over? Her distinguishing fea-
ture, as I remember her photograph,
was a short upper lip. You used to
force her upon me frequently when
we were in Africa."
"Humph! When I got back to Dub-
lin I found that she had married a
brewer's son,—think of it!"
"Put not your faith in a short upper
lip. Her face never inspired any con-
fidence in me."
"That will do. think you. I'll have
a bit more of that mayonnaise if the
waiter isn't dead. I think you said
your grandfather died in June. A let-
ter advising you of the fact reached
you at Naples in October. Has it oc-
curred to von that there was quite an
interim there? What, may I ask, was
the executor doing all that time? You
may be sure he was taking advantage
of the opportunity to look for the red,
red gold. I suppose you didn't give
hiin a sound drubbing for not keeping
the cables hot with inquiries for you?"
He eyed me in that disdain for my
stupidity which 1 have never suffered
from any other man.
"Well, no; to tell the truth, I was
thinking of other things during the in
terview."
"Your grand father should have pro-
vided a guardian for you, lad. You
oughtn't to he trusted with money. Is
our bottle empty? Well, if that per-
son with the fat neck was your friend
Pickering. l"d have a care of what's
coming to me. I'd be quite sure that
Mr. Pickering hadn't made away with
the old gentleman's boodle, or that it
didn't get lost on the way from him to
you."
"The time's running now. and I'm
in for the year. My grandfather was a
fine old gentleman, and I treated him
like a dog. I'm going to do what he
directs in that will, no matter what
the size of the reward may be."
"Certainly; that's the eminently
proper thing for you to do. But,—but
keep your wits about you. If a fellow
iwith that neck can't find money where
money has been known to exist, it
must be buried pretty deep. Your
grandfather was a trifle eccentric, 1
judge, but not a fool by any manner
of means. The situation appeals to
my imagination. Jack. 1 like the idea
of it,—the lost treasure and the whole
business. Lord, what a salad that is!
Cheer up, comrade! You're as grim
as an owl!"
Whereupon we fell to talking of peo-
1 If and places we had known in other
lands.
We spent the next day together, and
in the evening, at my hotel, he crili
cized my effects while I packed, in his
usual ironical vein.
"You're not going to take those
things with you. 1 hope!" He Indi
cated the rifles and several revolvers
which I brought from the closet and
threw upon the bed. "They make me
homesick for the jungle."
He drew from its cover the heavy
rifle I had used last on a leopard hunt
and tested its weight.
"Precious little use you'll have for
|this! Better let me take it back to
The Sod to use on the landlords. 1
gay, Jack, are we never to seek our
fortunes together again? We hit it ofT
ipretty well, old man, come to think of
It,—I don't like to lose you."
He bent over the straps of the rifle
case with unnecessary care, but there
was a quaver in his voice that was not
like Larry Donovan.
"Come with me now!" I exclaimed,
wheeling upon him.
"I d rather be with you than with
any other living man, Jack Glenarm,
but 1 can't think of It. I have my own
troubles; £nd, moreover, you've got to
stick It out there alone. It's part of
the game the old gentleman set up for
you, as I understand it. Go ahe^d, col-
lect your fortune, and then, if I haven't
been hanged ill the meantime, we'll
join forces later. There's no chap any-
whero with a ploasanter knack at
spending money than your old friend
L. I)."
Ho grinned, and I smiled ruefully,
knowing that wo must soon part again,
for Larry was one of the few men 1
had ever called friend, and this meet-
ing lrad only quickened my old affec-
tion for him.
"I "suppose," he continued, "you ac-
cept as gospel truth what that fellow
tells you about the estate. 1 should be
a little wary if I were you. Now, I've
been kicking around hero for a couple
of weeks, dodging the detectives, and
Incidentally reading the newspapers.
Perhaps you don't understand that
this estate of John Marshal Olenarm
has been talked about a good bit."
"I didn't know It," I said lamely.
"You couldn't know, when you were
coming from the Mediterranean on a
steamer. But the house out there and
the mysterious disappearance of the
property have been duly discussed.
You're evidently an object of some
public Interest:,"—and ho drew from
his pocket a newspaper cutting.
"Here's a sample item." He read:
"John Glenarm, the grandson of
John Marshall Glenarm, the eccentric
millionaire who died suddenly in Ver-
mont last summer, arrived on the
Maxinkuckee from Naples yesterday.
Under the terms of his grandfather's
will, Glenarm is required to reside for
a year at a curious house established
by John Marshall Glenarm near Lake
Annandale, Indiana.
"This provision was made, accord-
ing to friends of the family, to test
young Glenarm's staying qualities, as
he has, since his graduation from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
five years ago. distributed a consider-
wlth my f«xjt on the step, I waved a
farewell to Larry, who stood outside
watching me.
In a moment the heavy train was
moving slowly out into the night upon
its westward journey.
CHAPTER III.
The House of a Thousand Candles,
Annandale derives its chief Impor-
tance from the fact that two railway
lines Intersect there. The Chicago ex-
press paused only for a moment while
the porter deposited my things beside
me on the platform. Light streamed
from the open door of the station; u
few idlers paced the platform, staring,
into the windows of the cars; the vil-
lage hackman languidly solicited my
business. Suddenly out of the shad-
ows came a tall, curious figure of a
man clad in a long ulster. As 1 write,
it is with a quickening of the sensa-
tion I received on the occasion of my
first meeting with Bates. His lank,
gloomy figure rises before me now,
and 1 hear his deep melancholy voice,
as, touching his hat respectfully, he
said:
"Beg pardon, sir; is this Mr. Glen-
arm? 1 am Bates from Glenarm
House. Mr. Pickering wired me to
meet you, sir."
"Yes: to be sure," I said.
The hackman was already gathering
up my traps, and 1 gave him my trunk
checks.
"How far Is it?" I asked, my eyes
resting, a little regretfully, I must con-
fess, on the rear lights of the vanish-
ing train.
"Two miles, sir," Bates replied.
"There's no way over but the hack in
winter. In summer the steamer comes
right into our dock."
"My legs need stretching; I'll walk,"
I suggested, drawing the cool air into
my lungs. It was a still, starry Octo-
ber night, and its freshness was grate-
ful after the hot sleeper. Bates ac-
cepted the suggestion without com-
ment. We walked to the end of the
platform, where the hackman was al-
"Yes, I Supposed You Weren't Looking at the Woman," He Said, Dryly.
able fortune left by his father in con-
templating the wonders of the old
world. It is reported—"
"That will do! Signs and wonders
I have certainly beheld, and if I spent
my patrimony I submit that 1 got my
money back."
I paid my bill and took a hansom
for the ferry,—Larry with me, chaffing
away drolly with his old zest. As the
boat dre\y out into the river a silence
fell upon us,—the silence that is pos-
sible only between old friends. As I
looked back at the lights of the city,
something beyond the sorrow at part-
ing from a comrade touched me. A
sense of foreboding, of coming danger,
crept into my heart. But I was going
upon the tamest possible excursion;
for the first time in my life I was sub-
mitting to the direction of another,—
albeit one who lay in the grave. How
like my grandfather it was to die leav-
ing this compulsion upon me! My
mood changed suddenly and as the
boat bumped at the pier 1 laughed.
"Hah! these men!" ejaculated Larry.
"What men?" I demanded, giving my
bags to a porter.
"These men who are in love," he
said. "I know the signs,—mooning,
silence, sudden inexplicable laughter!
1 hope I'll not be in jail when you're
married."
"You'll be in a long time if they hold
you for that. Here's my train."
We talked of old times, and of fu-
ture meetings, during the few minutes
that remained.
"You can write me at my place of
rustication." I said, scribbling "An-
nandale, Wabana county. Indiana," on
a card. "New if you need me at any
time I'll come to you wherever you
are. You understand that, old man.
Good-by."
"Write me. care of my father—he'll
have my address, though this last row
of mine made him pretty hot."
I passed through the gate and down
the iona train to my sleeper. Turnio'
ready tumbling my trunks about, and
after we had seen them piled upon
his nondescript wagon 1 followed
Bates down through the broad, quiet
street of the village. There was more
of Annandale thau I had imagined, and
several tall smokestacks loomed hern
and there in the thin starlight.
"Brickyards, sir," said Hates, wav-
ing his hand at the stacks. "It's a
considerable center for that kind of
business."
"Bricks without straw?" I asked, as
we passed a radiant saloon that blazed
upon the board walk.
"Beg pardon, sir, but such places are
the ruin of men,"—on which remark I
based a mental note that Bates wished
to impress me with his own rectitude.
He swuug beside me, answering
questions with dogged brevity. Clear-
ly, here was a man who had reduced
human intercourse to a basis of neces-
sity. I was to be shut up with him for
a year, and he was not likely to prove
a cheerful jailer. My feet struck upon
a graveled highway at the end of the
! village street, and 1 heard suddenly
the lapping of water.
"It's the lake, sir. This road leads
right out to the house," Bates ex-
plained.
1 was doomed to meditate pretty
steadily, 1 imagined, on the beauty of
the landscape in these parts, and I
was rejoiced to know that it was not
all cheerless prairie or gloomy wood-
land. The wind freshened and blew
sharply upon us off the water,
j "The fishing's quite good in season,
j Mr. Glenarm used to take a great
pleasure in it. Hass.—yes, sir. Mr.
Glenarm held there was nothing quite
' equal to a black bass."
| I liked the way the fellow spoke of
j my grandfather. He was evidently a
; loyal retainer. No doubt he could
, summon from the past many pictures
j of my grandfather, and I deternls itf
to encourage his confidence.

In Case of Failure on Part of Rail-

mission
GUTHRIE: The riRlit of the eminent
domain Is denied to any railroad or
other common carrier which does not In-
corporate under the laws of the state,
by a provision adopted by the consti-
tutional convention 'I'hursday afternoon.
The corporation commission l given
power to investigate all through freight
or passenger rates on oklahoma rail-
roads. and when they are considered ex-
cessive, It shall be the duty of the ok-
lahoma commission to notify the. officers
of the road* affected, ir matters am
not rectified the commission Is to pre-
sent the matter to the Interstate com-
merce commission, with the attorney
general representing the Oklahoma com-
mission in such cases.
A provision was adopted giving Justices
or the peace coextensive Jurisdiction
with the county courts as examining and
committing magistrates in all felony
cases, concurrent jurisdiction with the
county courts in all misdemeanor cases
where the punishment cannot exceed
$2(10 line or thirty days In jail, and with
the county and district courts in all
civil cases Involving not more than $-00.
All county, municipal and township of-
ficers shall receive the same compensa-
tion .'.s under Oklahoma laws and the
county Judge shall receive the same
compensation as probate judges in Ok-
lahoma territory.
The convention put the final quietus
upon the woman suffrage by tabling
tihe report allowing women to Vote at
school elections. The vole was U7 to
table arid 29 against.
In connection with the action of the
contention leaving the matter of quali-
fication and compensation of justices of
the peace and county attorneys to the
Oklahoma law. Delegate B. It. Williams,
of the new Harper county, asked that
no residence qualification be required
for county attorney, as there is not a
lawyer in Ills county and one will have
to be imported to run for county at-
torney.
A section was adopted giving cities
and towns upon majority vote of all the
taxpayers voting, right to acquire in-
debtedness beyond the constitutional
limit, when raised to establish or main-
tain public utilities owned exclusively
by the city.
The convention decided to make the
insurance commissioner elective. Sec-
tions were adopted prohibiting counties,
cities, townships or school districts from
acquiring indebtedness In excess of
their current Income, except upon a
three-fifths vote.
Final action was taken by the conven-
tion upon articles ot the constitution
touching the geological survey, immigra-
tion, militia, mines and mining, oath of
office, commissioner of charities, roads
and highways, federal relations and sev-
eral sections of the railway report.
It is likely that the republican mem-
berk of the convention will attempt to
have the constitution which they drew
up to be substituted for the one being
framed by the democratic majority, sub-
mitted to the people at the election in
the two territories provided by the en-
abling act.
Three Indians were convicted at King-
fisher a few days ago of having Mescal
beans in their possession. Kach was
fined $'-*) and given a five days' jail
sentence. Notice of appeal was given
and the Indians released on $:"<00 bond
each. The Mescal bean produces in-
toxication and Is prohibited by the gov-
eminent.
GOVERNOR OR LEGISLATURE
To Act as to Bringing Armed Men Into
State in Time of Trouble
GUTHRIE: Peter Hanraty of McAl-
ester Wednesday evening introduced in
the constitutional convention a proposi-
tion preventing the Importation of armed
men into the state except on application
of the legislative assembly or the gov-
ernor.
The provision was introduced at this
time to supply the place of a section
of the bill of rights which was elimi-
nated by the convention because it was
too drastic.
The Hanraty proposition is taken from
the constitution of the state of Montana
and provides that no armed person shall
be brought fnto the stale for the pre-
servation of the pence or the suppression
of domestic violence, except uopn the
application of the legislative assembly
or of the governor when the legislative
assembly cannot lie convened.
WHY THE MIN0|RTY
ASKS CONSTITUTION
ni 'TI I HIM: Delegate Henry Ahp Usued
a Iwo thousand word statement Betting
forth the objects sought by the adoption
of a republican constitution by the
minority members of the convention, In
substance as follows:
"I have been repeatedly asked by newg-
pnper men and others the purpose of the
republicans In the constitution conven-
tion In offering a complete constitution.
The republicans In the convention are
few In number. We do not feel that we
have any right of authority to bind the
party on any question we may submit.
As the party, however, to which we be-
long Is a constructive party and one of
policies and principles, we felt that to
be in line with the party we represent
we ought to offer something to the con-
vention as our united wisdom, even
though we might be few In number.
"While the work of I he majority Is lot
nently completed, It bus gone far enough
so that the purpose of the majority may
now be Interpreted and the general scope
and plan of the majority constitution
well understood. We believe that the
majority constitution contains many
things that will embarass the progress of
the state. We further believe that
while the provisions of the majority con-
stitution with regard to tlie regulation
of corporations on their face seem to be
drastic, they are drastic In the wrong
direction and will lie found ineffective to
furnish to the people the, relief from
burdens from w/llch they suffer.
"The plan of the majority constitution
docs not present a constitution and state
government that I's republican In form,
as required by the enabling act, and as
stated by the president of the constitu-
tional conception. This purpose prc-
vades and will prevade the entire in-
strument. ir a constitution Is prepared
and adopted by the people that is not
republican in form, the president of the
I'nlted States, courageous as be fs, will
have no alternative except to refuse Its
approval. With this In mind, we felt It
to lie our duty, to make the constitution
a suggestion In the way of a proposition
for a complete constitution that we be-
lieved that would meet the approval of
the people of the state,' furnish them the
relief they demand and need: would meet
the requirements of the enabling act and
permit Oklahoma and Indian Territory
to have and enjoy the boon of statehood.
If the majority think the document pre-
sented by the republicans Is not in the
interests of the people, we would be
glad Indeed. If they would submit the
two documents side by side, and let the
people choose between them,
SALARIES FOR STATE FIXED

ers was raised from $3,000 to J4.000 an-

but It was allowed to remain at $4,500
as fixed by the committee.
The salary of the attorney general
was rafsed from $3,800 to $4,000.
Ellis of Orlando made an unsuccessful
attempt to abolish the regular salary
of $4,000 per year for the lieutenant gov-
ernor and place him on a per diem of

Never Overlooked a Chance.
When Bishop Talbot, now of th
cental Pennsylvania diocese, was-
"the cowboy bishop" of Idaho and
Wyoming fie never overlooked an op-
portunity of securing contributions
for the missionary work in which he-
took t.ich delight. On one occasion,
while attending a meeting of church,
dignitaries in St. Paul, he was chatting;
with some other clergymen on the-
steps of his hotel when several ho-
boes came a'long. One of them ap-
proached and asked for aid. Bishop-
Talbot took him aside and afier a
short but earnest conversation the
other tramps saw something pass
from hand to hand. "What did he-
give you?" asked the other hoboes
when they all started away. "Didn't
give me nothing." was the disgusted
reply. "I gave him a dollar for hia

"Bright Sunshine All Winter," Is What
a Western Canada Lady Says.
Maidstone, Sask., Canada,

C. J. Broughton, Esq.,
Canadian Government Agent,
Chicago, 111. •
Dear Sir:
Being so well pleased with Canada,
we wish my father and brother to>
come here. Will you please send them
reading matter on Canada.
We have been here nearly a year
and ire delighted with this country.
We have lived in Illinois, Iowa, and!
Michigan and we find Canada away-
ahead of any of them. We have had
bright sunshine all winter so far, only-
two nice, easy snow storms. If it was-
not all right you know I would not
want my father and brother to coipss
here, but we think it is grand.
Yours truly,

His Coveted Sensation.
"There is one feeling I sure would
like to have before I die," said the-
thoughtful young man as he looked
up from the magazine story he was
reading.
"And what is that?" asked his com-
panion, who sat looking out of the
club window.
"I should like to feel a 'berserk
rage,' whatever that is, that all these
novel heroes have when things go
wrong with the heroine. But perhaps,"
he sighed drearily, "I shouldn't know
it if I had it. I might think it was
hives, or indigestion, or epilepsy com-
ing over me. It's an awful thing not
to have an education."—Judge.
