of wearing it;" and with an offensively
deep aalute, he terminated the Inter-
view.
CHAPTER VI.
At the Sword's Point
Nell's first emotion was not so much
one of anger aa of exaltation. "I shall
have him at my sword's point," he
kept saying to himself as he turned
from Hyde to Van Heemskirk's house.
Katherloe sat upon the steps of the
stoop. Touching her, to arouse her
attention. Nell said, "Come with me
down the garden, my love."
She looked at him wonderingly, but
rose at his request and gave him her
hand.
Then the tender thoughts which had
lain so deep in his heart flew to his
lips, and he woo'd her with a fervor
and nobility as astonislng to himself
as to Katherlne. He reminded her of
all the sweet Intercourse of their hap-
py Uvea, and of the fidelity with which
he had loved her. "Oh, my Katherlne,
my .wee* Katherlne! Who Is there
that can take you from me?"
"No one will I marry. With my
father and my mother 1 will stay."
"Tea, till you learn to love me as I
love you. with the whole soul. You
are to be mj&wlfe. Katherlne?"
"That 1 have not said."
"Katherlne, 1. It true that Capt
Hyde 1. wearing a bow of your orange
ribbon?"
"Yes. A bow of my St Nicholas rib-
bon I gave him."
"Why?"
"Me he loves, and him I love.
"You have more St. Nicholas rib-
bons? Go and get me one. Get a bow,
Katherlne, and give It to me. I will
wait ht-re for It."
"No, that I will not do. How false,
how wicked I would be, if two lovers
my color, wore!"
"Well, then, 1 will cut my bow from
Hyde', breast. I will, though 1 cut
his heart out with It"
He turned from her as he said the
words, and, without speaking to Joris,
passed through the garden gate to his
own home.
In the calm of his own chamber,
through the silent, solemn hours,
when the world was shut out of his
life, Neil reviewed his position, but
he could find no honorable way out of
the predicament. He was quite sen-
sible that his first words to Capt.
Hyde that night had been intended to
provoke a quarrel, and he knew that
he would be expected to redeem them
by a formal defiance. However, as
the idea became familiar, it became
Imperative; and at length it was with
a fierce satisfaction he opened his
desk and without hesitation wrote the
decisive words:
"To Capt. Richard Hyde of His Majes-
ty's Service:
"gjr—a person of the character I
bear cannot allow the treachery and
dishonorable conduct of which you
have been guilty to pass without pun-
ishment Convince mt that you are
,more of a gentleman than I have rea-
son to believe, by meeting a a to-night
as the sun drops in the wood on the
Kalchhook Hill. Our seconds can lo-
cate the spot; and that you may have
no pretense to delay, I send by bearer
two sword., of which I give you the
privilege to make choice.
"In the interim, at your ervice,
"Nell Semple."
He had already .elected Adrian
Beekman as his second, a young mad
of wealth and good family. Beekman
accepted the duty with alacrity, and,
Indeed, so promptly carried out his
principal's instruction., that he found
Capt Hyde .till Bleeping when he
waited upon him. Hyde laughed light-
ly at "Mr. Semple'. impatience of of-
fense," and directed Mr. Beekman to
Capt. Earle as his second; leaving the
choice of swords and of the ground
entirely to his direction.
Lightly as Hyde had taken the chal-
lenge, he waa really more disinclined
to fight than Nell was. In hie heart
he knew that Semple had a lust cause
ol anger; "but then," he argued, "I
would not resign the girl for my life,
for I am sensible that life, if she is
another's, will be a very tedious thing
to me."
All day Nell was busy In making his
will and In dl.po.lng of his affairs.
Hyde felt equally the necessity for
some definite arrangement of his busi-
ness. He owed many debts of honor,
and Cohen's bill was yet unsettled.
He drank a cup of coffee, wrote sev-
eral Important letters, and then went
to Fraunce's, and had a steak and a
bottle of wine. During his meal his
thoughts wandered between Kath-
erlne and the Jew Cohen. After it he
went straight to Cohen's store.
It happened to be Saturday, and the
shutters were closed, though the door
was slightly open, and Cohen was sit-
ting with his granddaughter In the cool
shadows of the crowded place. Miriam
reti eated within the deeper shadows
of some curtains of stamped Moorish
leather, for she anticipated the im-
mediate departure of the intruder.
She was therefore astonished when
her grandfather, after listening to a
few Bentences, sat down, and entered
Into a lengthy conversation. When at
last they rose, Hyde extended his
hand. "Cohen," he said, "few men
would have been as generous and, at
this hour, as considerate as you. I
have Judged from tradition, and mis-
Judged you. Whether we meet again
or not, we part as friends."
"You have settled all things as
gentleman, captain. May my white
hairs say a word to your heart this
hour?" Hyde bowed; and he con-
tinued, In a voice of serious benignity
"The words of the Holy One are to be
regarded, and not the words of men.
Men call that 'honor' which He will
call murder. What excuse is there in
your lips if you go this night Into his
presence?
There was no excuse in Hyde's lips,
even for his mortal iulerrogator. He
merely bowed again, and slipped
through the partially opened door into
the busy Btreet Miriam returned to
h6r place and asked plainly, "What
murder Is there to be, grandfather?"
• "It Is a duel between Capt. Hyde
and another. It shall be called mur-
der at the last"
"The other, who Is he?"
"The young man, Semple. Oh, Mir-
iam, what sin and sorrow thy sex
ever bring to those who love It! There
are two young lives to be put In death
peril for the smile of a woman—a very
girl she Is."
"Do I know her, grandfather?"
"She passes here often. The daugh-
ter of Van Heemsklrk—the little fair
one, the child."
"Oh, but now I am twice sorry!
She has smiled at me often. We have
even spoken."
Cohen, with his hands on his staff,
and his head In them, sat meditating,
perhaps praying; and the hot, silent
moments went slowly away. In them.
Mliinm was coming to a decision
which at first alarmed her, but which,
aB It grew familiar, grew also lawful
and kind. A word to Van Heemsklrk
or to the Elder Semple would be suf-
ficient. Should she not say it?
Perhaps Cohen divined her purpose,
and was not unfavorable to It, for he
suddenly rose, and, putting on his
cap, said, "I am going to see my kins-
man John Cohen. At sunset, set wide
the door; an hour after sunset I will
return."
As soon as he had gone, Miriam
wrote to Van Heemsklrk these words:
Good Sir—This is a matter of life
and death; so then, come at once, and
I will tell you. Miriam Cohen."
It was not many minutes before Van
Heemskirk's driver passed, leading his
loaded wagon; and to him she gave
the note.
That day Joris had gone home
earlier than usual, and Bram only
was In the store. He supposed the
strip of paper to refer to a barrel of
flour or some other household neces-
sity.
Its actual message wa„ "> unusual
and unlooked for. that it took him a
moment or two to realize the words;
then he answered the summons for
his father promptly. Mirium proceed-
ed at cnce to give him such Informa-
tion as she possessed. Bram stood
gazing at the beautiful, earnest girl,
and felt all the fear and force of her
words; but for some moments he
could not speak, nor decide on his first
step.
"Why do you wait?" beaded Miriam.
"At sunset, I tell you. Ii Is now near
it Oh, no thanks! Do not stop for
them, but hasten away at onc-J."
He obeyed like one In c dream.
Semple was Just leaving business. He
put bts hand on him. and said, "Elder,
no time have you to lose. At 6unset,
Nell and that d English soldier a
duel are to fight."
"Eh? Where? Who told ycu?"
' "Ofi the KUchhbok Hilt Stay not
for talk."
"Run for your father, Bram. Rrn.
my lad. God help me! God spare the
lad!"
At that moment Nell ant B]f* ww
on the fatal spot
Nell flung off his coat aad walstoeat
and stood with bared breast on the
spot his second Indicated. Hyde re*
moved his fine scarlet coat and hand-
ed it to Capt Earle. and would thea
have taken hla sword; but Beekman
advanced to remove also hla walitp
coat The suspicion Implied *y thla
act roused the soldler'a indignation,
and with hla own banda he tore off
the richly embroidered satin garment
and by ao doing exposed what perhapa
some delicate feeling had made him
wish to conceal—a bow of orange rib-
bon which he wore above hla heart
The sight of It to Nell waa like oil
flung upon flame. He could scarcely
restrain himself until the word "go"
gave him licenae to charge Hyde.
Hyde waa an excellent awordsman
and had fought several duels; but he
was quite disconcerted by the deadly
reality of Nell'a attack. In the sec-
ond thrust his foot got entangled In
tuft of grasB, and, in evading a
lunge aimed at his heart he fell on
his right side. Supporting himself,
however, on hla sword band, be
sprang backwards with great dexter-
ity, and thus escaped the probable
death-blow. But, as he was bleeding
from a wound In the throat, his sec-
ond interfered and proposed a recon-
ciliation. Nell angrily refused to lis-
ten. He declared "he had not come
to enact a farce;" and then, happen-
ing to glance at the ribbon on Hyde'a
breast, he swore furiously "He would
make hla way through the body of
any man who stood between him and
his Just anger."
Up to this point there had been In
Hyde's mind a latent disinclination to
•lay NelL After it he flung away
every kind of memory, and the fight
waa renewed with an almost brutal
Impetuosity, until there ensued one of
those close locks which It was evi-
dent nothing but "the key of the body
could open." In the frightful wrench
which followed, the sword, of both
men sprang from their hands, flying
some four or five yards upward with
the force. Both recoveeed their weap-
ons at the Bame time, and both, bleed-
ing and exhausted, would have again
renewed the fight; but at that mo-
ment Van Heemsklrk and Semple, with
their attendants, reached the spot
Without hesitation, they threw
themselves between tbe young men.
But there waa no need for words. Nell
fell senseless upon his sword, making
In his fall a last desperate effort to
reach the ribbon on Hyde's breast; for
Hyde had also dropped fainting to the
ground, bleeding from at least half a
dozen wounds. Then one of Semple's
young men, who had probably divined
the cause of quarrel, and who felt a
sympathy for his young master, made
as if he would pick up the fatal bit of
orange satin, now dyed crimson in
Hyde's blood.
But Joris pushed the rifling hand
fiercely away. "To touch It would be
the vilest theft," he said. "His own*
It 1b. With his life he has bought it"
At Ikt Investigation Nlnere Pet Coal
Baron on the Stand
8CRANTON, PA.: The lawyers for
the miners sprung a surprise on the
coal companies during the commission-
ers' proceedings by calling to the wit-
nesB stand J. L. Crawford, one of the
prominent Independent operators. He
is president of the people's coal com-
pany, which operates tbe Oxford col-
liery at Scranton. Mr. Crawford, who
has been attending the sessions each
day, was surprised to be called and h«
remarked as he took the stand, "This is
a new turn of affairs." "When did you
ship coal last?" asked Mr. Darrow.
"Yesterday." "What are you getting
for it?" "I don't know exactly." "Can
you come near It" "I can if I want
to." "Don't you want too?" "No sir."
"You are a party to this commission
and went to New York to see the coal
presidents?" "Yes sir." "Then you re-
fuse to give this commission that Infor-
mation?" "I don't think 1 am compell-
ed to tell." The attorneys for the oper-
ators objected to the inquiry proceed-
ing any further along the lines of what
a company's profits are. Mr. Darrow
said he called the witness to show that
the coal companies are able to pay tht
advance In wages asked for and h«
wanted to show that the companies art
well able to give the Increase asked foi
without putting it on the poor.

"BAIT" FOR WILD TURKEYS."
Senator Bat«-a Presented His Side of the
Committee on Territories
WASHINGTON: Senator Bate pre-
sented In the Senate the minority re-
port of the committee on territories fa-
voring passage of the house omnibus
statehood bill without amendment. The
report opposes the union of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory Into one state. It
shows minutely the condition each of
the territories proposed as to popula-
tion. wealth and general features of
territories, and says these are such
as call for Immediate statehood. It
Mhows both republican and democratic
parties in their last national conven-
tion adopted with perfect unanimity
platform planks recommending each of
the three territories by name for state-
hood. Such expressions, the report con-
tinues, should be respected by both
territories.
"But the amendment by the senate
committee on territories incorporates
the Indian Territory with the state of
Oklahoma without expression of the
Indian Territory to be either a state or
a part of Oklahoma. So far as your
committee has information, that alli-
ance may be a union of unwilling peon
pie and an undesirable connection. In
no case In the rast have the people
on any territory been compelled by an
enabling act to form a constitution
against their expressed will. However
much the people of Oklahoma may de-
sire joint statehood the Indians have
made no expression of any such de-
sire."
Reports from Madill say that the re-
cent rains have almost destroyed the
remaining portion of the cotton In tk
fields.
Hundreds of the Birds Have Fallen
Before Gun of Expert
Wild turkeys are still quite plentiful
In Bome portions of North Carolina
as they also are In Arkansas, Texas,
Indian Territory, Oklahoma and South-
ern Missouri, says the American Field,
but Just how long they will be plenti-
ful in any of these states is a question.
If the states possess a Gil McDuffle,
as does North Carolina, who. It I*
said, only a short time since killed
seven turkeys at one shot. It it
claimed that McDuffle has killed 1,500
wild turkeys and 700 deer in his time,
besides countless numbers of sn allei
game. The way he makes his war os
turkeys is by "baiting." He flndt
where a flock of turkeys use and h«
lays a train of corn to a locality whera
he can arrange a good blind. The
blind is made and corn is put out in
good quantity for the turkeys not fat
away, he being careful to place tht
corn In such shape that when the tun
keys feed upon it they will be well
bunched. He then secretes himself la
his blind and lies in wait for th#
turkeys. When they come and get
bunched up over the quart or two ol
corn, he turns loose with a shotgun,
and the slaughter is tremendous.
Fence of Elks' Horns.
A fence nearly 200 feet long at Llr-
Ingston, Mont., Is made entirely ol
horns of the elk—more properly called
wapiti. These animals, like the oth-
ers of the deer family, shed their
horns once a year and grow new ones.
The old horns are found in large num-
bers in «he forests and are used foi
various commercial purposes.

TOPEKA, KAN.: Breeders of thor-
oughbred cattle in Kansas say that the
Indian cattlemen of Oklahoma, Indian
Territory and the western states are
nmong their best customers. The In-
dians in these states and territories
are rapidly turning their attention to
the cattle Industry and are making a
success of It. They have found by ex-
perience that It does not pay .to raise
the poorest breeds and they are con-
tinually watching for the best bred
animals. Several Indian cattlemen
from Montana have been In Greenwood
county during the last week buying
registered Galloway bulls. The Indiana
say thitt the Galloways come nearer
filling the place and can easier adapt
themselves to changes in climate on
the northwestern ranges.
