Lady Latimer’s Escape.

No ono bot myself Insew how I
i dreaded that coming New Year for
| I-ady Latimer. She had left off hating
me now, poor darling; she told me site
j know it had all come ul<out for tho
bast.
"Yon acted rightly, Audrey,” she
said to me one day, when the dismal
; snow was falling, falling as if it never
meant to stop, and there was an un-
| utterablo stilln.*-s over evervthing
I round Lorton's Cray. "Quite right,
for you are a good woman, and could
not do otherwise; but now I love his
m. mory as I loved him in life. I feel
as if I should almost win heaven if f
could lie by his side in the grave. Ah!
ho has no grave; no_"
She burst info passionat * weeping,
an 1 I could say nothing to comfort her;
the dead man had boon the onlv love
of her life—the only worship that '
There appears to bo a silver lining
to the cloud that went a. far south as
Florida a fow weeks ago with tho
blizzard that froze $j,00u,OOJ worth of
oranges on tho trees. This same
blizzard killed tho white flios and
other pests with which tho orange
growers have to contend, and it"is
claimed that what oranges are left are
tho better on account of the visit of
tho cold wave.
Accidents, attended with great loss
of life on tho Mississippi and other
rivers, are not as common as they
used to be. Tho reason is that there
is comparatively little travel by river
now. In the first ten years after the
war there was a great deal of such
travel, especially on the lower
Mississippi, and several accidents,
accompanied with the loss of many
lives, are recorded.
It would not be surprising if, b -
fore long, both in this country an 1
Groat Britain eloctric energy were to
lie generated in the coal”fields and
transmitted to great industrial cen-
ters. A writer in an English review
advocates this plan of supplying
power, and argues that by its adop-
tion an immense waste of carrying
power. a< well as tho waste of coal in
transit, would be avoided.
It’s all right to "scatter seeds of
kindness” with tho hope of reaping a
reward—in heaven; but the man who
scatters his advertisements over every
church fair program, magic lantern
slide, fence board and gutter snipe,
noed not expect his business results
on earth. Concentration is the key-
note of modern success in every line,
says Printer’s Ink: the second hundred
dollars spent in any legitimate adver-
tising medium is worth three times a;-
mucli as tho first.
The people of Franco need not be
come excited over the idea that tier-
many is represented by numerous
spies whose business it is to find out
all they can about French military and
naval affairs. They should take that
as a matter of course. Franco has its
spies in Germany and doubtless the .
secure a great deal of \aluable infor-
mation. It is the policy of ail such
countries to ascertain as much as pos-
sible about what their rivals are do-
ing. It is probable that Germany has
full information in regard to mifitar-
and naval affairs in this country and
England, it is practically impossible
to keep such information from reach-
ing a nation that is interested in know-
ing the facts. a
A yeuv good way to get rid of the
plea of hypnotism in murder cases
would be to promptly hang the mur-
derer and tho person who does the
hypnotising, too. Minneapolis has
a very imporlant ease of this kind on
t-ial now, and it is to bo hoped that
she will set tho example.

I too late!
.She had been quietly content
to stay at tho old house, wrapped
up in her own sorrow and
J the good she was trying to do to uli
around her with her husband's legacy.
[ She did not know that all heaven, as
| it seemed to me, lay at my feet, anl I
j did not dare to stoop my hand and
pick it up. Lord Latimer found me
alone in the cozy boudoir one dismal
November day, when h" came to see
after the business of -onto of the es-
tate, and aimost before I knew what
he was talking about, he asked nn to
be his wife.
My fa"o sjmke what my tongue
' ouid not utter, and h*.* caught mo in
his arms and kissed me, not once, but
a dozen times.
I illiilk we have understood each
other all along.” ho said. "Look me '
in the face and tell mo that you will '
be my wife. Audrey, iny own."
I did not say it; I remembered inv I
mother’s words, and hesitated. Pres- 1
ently I told him what was in my heart,
and how I could never marry him
without the consent of mv parents,
and I doubt'd its being given. It was
not for me, Audrey Lovel, to aspire to
be mistress of Lorton’s ('ray
Latimer laugh ad, and said it was all
nonsense.
“Your father will consent,” h * said.
"} wiu ffr> to him to-day and bring vou |
his permission in an hour."
Hut my father refused flatly and un-
compromisingly, and would' give no
reason; and I went home broken-
hearted after I had seen mv lover ride I
away, with a dark look of 'det-rmina-
tion on his face, to ask for an oxplan-
atmn. I knew what mv dear mother’s
fear had been; that I should give my
heart away and have nothing in re-
turn. that Lionel Fleming was only
amusing himself by a flirtation witii
in ■ijshe did not know, dear mother,
what a loyal heart she was misjudging.
I heard my father's reason and it n ar
iy broke my heart. Never a rich
man. he had been struggling for years
with the difficulty of making both ends
meet, and the boys had grown daily
more expensive. He had seen a way,
as he thought, by a safe speculation!
to almost double his income b.- risk-
ing his small remaining capital: he
had risked and lost. He bad nothing
now but his stipend, never enough to
keep us in comfort: and mother was
going to take in two boarders to spoil
the dear home circle, and the boys
were to bo sent out into tho world us
they grew old enough to fight the bat-
tle of life for themselves.
I understood the refusal now, and i
could feel with my fattier in his ,.or-
rowful pride. We were a proud
race, we Levels, and it would bo said
that the vicar had angled for the new
Lord Latimer, and caught him for his
daughter.
Lionel pressed me very hard for tho
reason of the refusal; but I would nol
t' il him—how could I?—that I was
loo poor to come to him even proper-
ly appointed as to outfit, if by any
chance I should be allowed to marry
him.
"J shall be back at the New Year.
In3 darling, he said: taking me in
his arms, as if he had never met with
any rebuff, "and you will tell me then
what it all means, and we will get
out oi the difficulty somehow.”
_ ! would not see him at the New
' ear:I made up my mind to that. No
use for these heartaches, when no
good could come of them: so 1 begged
of Lady Latimer tolet me go home for
the holiday-time If would he tjj'» ln»t

She had some female friends renting

that I bail no sympathy with them;
they could do very well without me.
And so it came alsiut thut I was at

but a tremendous Sli ce is. A eh vk
for a largo sum was liedn.e |, ami a
request that at his leisure the Hover-
•’ml Archibald Lovel would go to
town ami confer with them alsmt the
remainder.
My father accepted It un*tih|M«'tlnf-
l.v. I lut I nn doubts as to whore tho
money came from, hut I could not
littoi* them. I expected I should see
Uonol before long, and I did. I met
him in tbe lane lauding to tho \ ieur-
age. and lie liont down from bis Mid-
dle, and said something iilmiit the sil-
ver lining turning up. I could not
b"tray him. Tho revulsion of fooling
nficr > • much relief would have broil-
on inv father's heart.
So I was very happy when the lust
day of fhc old year dawn si bright and
clear, as it had dawned on that day
that seemed in the fur past now,
though it was only three yours ago.
I iii' day could never be otherwise Hum
a sad one for me, * thought; it will
never lto a sad one any more now.
My father had been to Lon Inn and
learned that, instead of Isung a ruitied
man, as ho h.diovod, ho was richur
than ho ha I been Indore; and I hud
won him over to sa\ that perhaps, in
tho future, if things went well with
him, lie would withdraw the decisive

the permission would lie given. Lion I I
was coming to the vicarage in tho I
evening, and ihen—ah then! I could
hardly pi rsua. d myself that it was all
real, and that I should not wake from
a blis-ful dream, and find the two
!warders invading our happy home,
i and tho dear boys gone.
It was growing dark and I was sit-
t.ng up in the old nursery, so full of
childish m mories of mischief and fun.
Wiii*n Mihie, a tali slip u a girl now,
an i a |»ei'.son of importance in her own
eyes, as tho datight :r of the house an 1
mother's right hand, came tip with a
mysterious look on her face.
' I'her 's some one asking for \ on,
Audrey, dear.” she said.
"l or »’1'' 'Vho is it:'” I said with a
sudden chill at my In art, for I fancied
something must have happened to
Lionel.
"I don't know." sho said. "It is
you he wants; I told him father an l
mother would not be long before they
came in. but ho dobs no' want them.”
"Where is he?”
"in the hull."
Millie evidently did not think much
of my mysterious visitor. I hastened
down, an 1 there, under the lump, i
stood a tall, white-haired man. rather
shabbily dressed, who turned sharply
as ho heard my footsteps, and spoke !

to mo.
"Miss Lovel, ho said, "I have come

Who was speaking to mo? What

I heard u voice say something about

tail figure vanished in a sort of uiNt,
and everything was black around me.’
It was in Lionel’s arms that i came
back to life; my head was on h!s
shoulder, and my mother was standing
by my side.
"'es. it. is true, dear," sho said,
answering the question my eyes asked.
"ill- colonel is not dead. Ho has
com - back after almost incredible
hardships and escape-:. He did not in-
tend to frighten you so."
He came to my side, a wan shadow
of a man, utterly unlike tho glorious
specimen of manhood that I remem-
bered so well, and when 1 was quite
myself agaiu. lie asked me if Lady
Latimer would welcome him.
“1 should like to know tiiat -lie for-

can nover be anything more between
us. it would be a comfort to know
that."
"Mi" will only think of mo as .-he.

poor, maimed creature, not lit for a

MARTIN.
Senator < handler .Mnke« Such a Motion
in the Sen ii to.
Washington, Fob. 2.—Yesterday's
brief filibuster in tbe senate, which
was precipitated by Senator t hand-
ler's motion to declare the seat of
Senator Martin of Kansas, vacant,
was the beginning of tbo tactics
which some of the Republican sena-
tors have decided upon for the pur-
pase of delaying legislation and is so
recognized by tbo Democrats and so
confessed by some of tbe Republi-
can*. Senator ('handler, when asked
for an explanation of the meaning of
his resolution, replied:
“Wi mean to get Martin out if wo
can, and after that is accomplished,
to get Roach unseated and have Re-
publicans elected in their place.
With this done and with the uow Wy-
oming and Montana Republican sena-
tors senators seated and with tho
Washington vacancy filled by Repub-
licans,we will not only have the Dem
oerats in a minority, but we will come
near having a Republican majority.
Wc shall then be in a shape to bring
relief to the country by settling the
finantial problem, which the Demo-
crats have shown themselves incapa-
ble of doing while in the majority."
Mr. Chandler declared himself ir.
earnest.
Mr. Faulkner did not regard the
filibuster as a serious matter and said
it was intended to temporarily delay
matters until the Democrats should
announce their order of business,
which would be done soon.
