HOUSE Baseball Semi-Finals The local team journeyed to Sparta on Saturday and played the first game in the semi-finals. defeating Sparta 13 to 12. Manager Smith had difficulty in securing enough players on the short notice given for the game and therefore played G. Weeks as a fielder. This raised a protest from Sparta, which at a meeting of the executive on Monday evening was upheld and the game thrown out. Sparta received a decided defeat in a fast game here yesterday. when Eichenberg pitched the locals to a win of five to two. The real score should of been five to nothing as the first innings netted the visitors two presented runs, before Eichenberg struck his stride, aftef this innings he pitched stellar ball. This game is one of a scries with Sparta .to decide who will play Port Burwell for the Elgin-Oxford League Championship.. The return game is re-played in Sparta on Saturday. The score:— Sparta ---------------.......200000000—2 Tillsonburg ------- ------000401000—5 The line up:— Sparta—Gilbert, Martin, Brown, Car­ ter., Gorvctt, Thorne, Collins, Her­rington and Wright.

This was largely made possible by the exceptionally fine condition of track; owing to the work done by the Fair Board at con­ siderable expense. For instance the 2J0 pacers made the mile in 2.09% and the 2.50 pacers in 2.13%. The horse­ men could hardly believe their watches, therefore they measured the tracks and found it measured about twoo feet less than a mile and one tenth. One horseman who has follow­ ed the races for thirty-seven years said to the writer that he never saw or heard of such time and complimen­ tary remarks were heard on ail sides on the condition of the track.

The Waterworks Question The Mayor’a Reply to Mr. Tillson. To the citizens of Tillsonburg: » Mr. E V. Tillson addressed a letter to the ratepayers in this paper, pub­ lished on August 16th, 1928. In this letter Mr. Tillson, who is president of The Tillsonburg Waterworks Co., and also a shareholder in this same com­ pany. stated that he was viewing the transaction from a critical and un­ biased attitude. With the critical atti­ tude I can agree, but with an unbiased attitude I cannot agree for the reason that Mr. Tillson did not state the whole case, avoided certain very important de­ tails. Especially true is this with re­ gard to the Annandale farm situation. Mr. Tillson did not state that the An­ nandale farm collecting system is really divided into two parts, in so far as source of water is concerned. The one source is from the farm proper, and this is limited to a small section north of the C.P. R. tracks and a very small section south, and the other source is from a collecting line which begins somewhere in the neighborhood of the Beech Woods and is carried to a col­ lecting well called “V," at the north end of King street, and from there is carried to collecting well “K," at the corner of the steel works property, op­ posite Venison street, on Tillson ave­ nue. A short history of the negotia­ tions with regard to these two wells will be of interest and also will help to explain the true situation. When the Tillsonburg Waterworks Co. finally of­ fered to sell their system for $100,000. with the exception of the Annandale Farm section, these two wells were not mentioned. The council received in­ formation that these two wells. K and V, which were not situated on the farm property at all, were a very valuable source of water, and in fact that these two wells supplied about 75 per cent, of the water of the Annandale system, and that section on the farm property only about 25 per cent. The council, through their solicitors, notified the Waterworks Co. that they would do: buy the system unless these two wells wcr e given to the town. This the Waterworks Company absolutely re­ fused to do. and in fact the whole trans­ action was held up for about two month* because of the deadlock over these two well*. At this 'point it migh: be advisable to slate that Mr. E V. Tillson was asked by the writer why they were so anxious to retain these two wells, and Mr. Tillson'* answer was that they wished to assure a sup­ ply of water to the farm house, and he was asked whether the system on the farm proper would not do this and his answer was in the negative. Finally Mr. Ludwig, the Waterworks Co.’s solicitor, wrote to our solicitor in To­ ronto. Mr. Lawson, and stated that there did not seem to be any chance of a settlement over these two wells, as the company would not give them up. and the council demanded them, that the original arbitration proceedings might as well be reopened. Mr. Law- son's reply on behalf of the town was to proceed with the arbitration. Then, and not until then, did the Waterworks Co. agree to give the town these two wells, rather than go back into arbitra­ tion again. So this is the true situation, and the town will own wells K and V, which it has been admitted are the main source of supply of the Annan­ dale system, so that taking Mr. Till­ son' s statement that the Annandale system supplies 40 per cent, of the total water supply, and taking into consider­ ation that wells K and V supply 75 per cent, of this supply or three-quarters, then when we do not buy the system on Annandale farm we arc losing 10 per cent, of the total water supply now be­ ing used, and to offset this we arc get­ ting the Winskell line. whichS* not be­ ing used as a supply at the present time, but is in good repair and ready to be used at any time that it is required. Also there is a large stream of .water in Vienna Woods which is not being used at the present time and which can be utilized at any time that it is required. So where is your shortage of water? There is another angle to the Annan­ dale farm controversy. When our en­ gineer. Mr. Wynne-Roberts, first went over the system he was not in favor of buying the Annandale farm system proper because of tillage rights, etc., and we were very pleased when the Waterworks Co. offered us a proposi­ tion which did not include the collect­ing system on the farm. It is very im­ portant for the ratepayers to under­stand that we are not giving up the Annandale system at the end of two years; we arc not buying this system, and as a source of supply it is not a good buy. At the arbitration the Waterworks Co. put a valuation of $12,000 op the Annandale collecting system, and in addition to this there was the question of water rights which the town would have had to pay for : a total cost of probably $15,000 to $20,000. So if there is to be a shortage of water as Mr. Tillson predicts. Annandale farm is not the place to get it and pay (Continued on page 7) Interesting Items At Northway* —Orient full fashioned silk hose, silk to the hem. contour heel.

Auto Accident An auto mix-up. which might very easily have resulted much more seri­ ously occurred in front of the shoe factory Tuesday afternoon, shortly after the dinner hour. It appears that Mayor Glover of Crown Point, led, with hi* wife and two children, is a Packard, were proceeding north oc Breadway, and _ when directly in froet o: the shoe factory a Chevro- ict car driven by Harry Jone* cut directly across the street in front of the Packard, which resulted in a terrific cra*h. Fortunately neither car turned over and the occupants escaped serious injuries. It is said that Jone* was coming from the north, and gave no signal as to his intention of turning.

August 27th, 1928 | To the Editor of the News:— , Some of the property owners of the town, knowing that I have sunk a number of wells in and adjacent to the town, have urged me to make my ex­ perience known to the people, think­ ing it might be of some help to them in deciding how to vote on the water­ works by-law to be submitted to them on the 10th of next month. I am taking it for granted that the property owners of the town arc will­ ing to pay the Waterworks Company what their property is *• ’'" worth, and that this is what pany is willing to accept. In reading Mr. Tillson’s letter I notice a statement which ! think will be very misleading to a good many of the property ownerss. 1 refer to what he says about the water in deep wells. Associated with some Toronto friends I have put down a number of deep wells for oil. drilling into the rock, on the creek flats, and invariably, when we struck water, it was impregnated with sulphur and could not be used for domestic purposes, and 1 can therefore verify what Mr. Tillson says as to this. I have also sunk a number of wells for water in the town, and have always found an un­ limited supply of water without going »try deep for it. and have no doubt that three or four wells sunk fifteen or twenty feet below the present gathering pipe lines of the Water­ works Company will supply the town with water for domestic use for many years to come. The well at the creamery, for instances, is being pumped steadily, day and night, with a steam pump, and shows no signs of a shortage of water, and I would sug­ gest to the council, if they have any doubt as to this, that they have a well sunk east of Tillson Avenue to Port Burwell School Examination Results Mt Elgin School Report honestly the com- The following are the results of the Middle School and Matriculation examinations of the Port Burwell Continuation school: Harry Alward—Comp. c.

In 1926. there occurred in Canada 893 deaths from Measles, of which 2*4 were children under one year of age. Most deaths from measles occur under five years of age. The disease attack specially those under htree years. The older the child, the better chance has he of recovery.

August 20.—Motorists of Ontario who drive, a great deal will contribute substantially more next year to the revenues of the province, by way of gasoline tax. Those who cover only moderate mileage, or lay the car up for several months of the year, will not notice the difference so much, l»ecau»c there will be a counter­balancing reduction in motor license fee*.Some months ago Premier Ferguson intimated that higher gas tax was coming, but he did not say just when. To-day he announced that the in­ crease would be imposed next year. “We want to get as near as pos­ sible." he said, "to an equitable basis, so that people who use the service pro­ vided by our road system will pay in accordant with the use they get and the damage ,,,cy do-” The present tax on gasoline is three cent* a gallon. The premier gave no intimation as to'the propoaed increase in the tax or the proposed regulation of license fees.

PRAYER “We realize, O God. that there many voices in the world, and in confusion of their speaking we ar apt to forgej that Thou dost speak to us as well. Oftentimes Thy voice is not heard above the clamour of work and pleasure. Our attention is attract­ ed by so many things which appear to >e ot more consequence than the claims of Thy Kingdom. Help u» to follow the example of Jesus Christ who with­drew into the wilderness that He might be alone with Thee. We would from time to time shut out the noise of things hat we may hear Thy still small voice 'n our »oul». Amen." SCRIPTURE 1 Sam. 3. MEDITATION 1 Sam. 3: 10: "Speak; for thy ser­ vant hcareth." In a large measure we hear what we are t rained to hear. The master of music can hear the slightest discord made by the least important in­ strument in the orchestra. The car of the engineer is so attuned to the hum of the machinery that he can detect at once any slight nock, or click, that may mean something wrong. A naturalist is able to hear the huqjble song of a cricket amidst all the roar of traffic of the city streets. Scores who could not hear the cricket will stop at once if somebody drops a ten rtnt. piece. The same holds true in the realm of the spiritual. Samuel did not recognize God’s voice until under Eli’s instruc­ tion he was trained to do so. God is constantly speaking to us, but we will never hear his votfe unless we listen for it, and keep our souls sensitive to His call. We arc not deaf to the voices of money, or business, or pleasure. We have trained ourselves to hear such voices because we want to hear them. But we have so often allowed the claims of God to go unheeded, that His voice has ceased to reach our con­ science. We need to pray the prayer of the child Samuel. We need to keep with us the tenderness of childhood, for when we were little children it. was not hard for u* to hear God's voice. "Except ye become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.” HYMN I heard the voice of Je*u» say, "Come unto Me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon My breast." I came to Jesus as I was. Weary, and worn and sad, I found in Him a resting-place, And He hath made me glad." EAST GOSHEN Miss Margaret Moffct of New York is visiting her qpusin, Mr*. Delos* Sandham.

Sent for Trial On Murder Charge Woodstock, August 27, — Robert John Childs, 20, was to-day committed for. trial on a charge of murdering Gertrude Yelland in the Township of Oxford, on August 21). The prelimin­ ary hearing was before Magistrate Patterson, with Crown Attorney Ball presenting the case and A. S. Fergus­ on appearing for the accused. Very little evidence. was taken. Leslie Brown and William Pearson. drug clerks, testified to Childs having pur­ chased six ounces of chloroform from each of them. Dr. S. M. McLay testified that the girl had died from the effects of chloroform and that he had been call­ ed to Childs' home and had found the dead body in Child's automobile out­ side the house. Dr. Andrew MacKay, the coroner, corroborated Dr. McLay's evidence. Magistrate Patterson expressed the opinion that the accused could n-t be committed on a charge of murder, claiming the charge should be one of aiding and abetting a suicide, but the commitment was made on the charge laid and will go before the grand jury at the September assizes as an indict­ ment for murder. —I ■ ■ ■ - I I ■ — Norwich Resident Has Passed Away Norwich, August 25.—The sudden death of a well known resident ofrNor- wich occurred at his home early Sun­ day morning of Wm.

About 55 were present from Tillson- burg, Norwich, Simcoe, Richmond, and Mr. and Mrs. James Palmer from Rapid Expansion Program Of Western Fair Puts It Into the Forefront of Canadian Exhibitions. The best proof of the popularity of the Western Fair is in the thousands of people who flock to it in ever- increasing numbers every year. Somt come for instruction—to sec what the other fellow is doing—others for en­ tertainment; some out of curiosity— but al) come for a good time. Old- tiipcr meets old-timer; • friends renew acquaintances; families make it a re­ union—it’s the gathering place of Western Ontario and almost everyone is there. This year will be the 61st consecu­ tive exhibition of the Western Fair and by far the largest and biggest ex­ hibition it has ever held. In the matter of progress that of the Fair has always been exceptional, but during the past three years it has been phenomenal. Exhibits has increased both in number and size, entertainment facilities have doubled, visitors have grown to almost unheard of numbers until the Western Fair stands out to the forefront of Canadian Exhibitions Probably the most impressing evi­ dences of the Fair's progress is the number of fine buildings that have been lately erected. These buildings arc fine examples of the latest in ex­ hibitional architecture and include the Manufacturers* Building, the Confed­ eration Building and the Live Stock Arena, all of which will be centres of great ,in*erc‘* during the coming exhibition of the week of Sept. 8 to Sept. 15. The Western Fair Board has made arrangements to receive the largest crowds in history and have planner a program that does not leave a dull moment during the whole week.There are many things to interest everyone, young and old, and no one will attend this year's Western Fair that does not profit in knowledge and education gained through many happy hours.

A moment later he had bowed her an adieu not at the gate of Gordon House, but at the corner of the lane that led to it. Then, turning rapidly away, he went—not to the magistrate, or the beach—but to the Clifltown Hotel, dose to the depot, where he ordered brandy. “What devil's ill luck took me to Hamilton's thi* morning?" he mused, as he poured the fiery liquor down, with muttered curses upon the cow­ ardice that made hi* lips tremble *0, and hi* face turn so white. “1 can ac­ tually feel myself grow chill and pale I" he thought “Hamilton would have ac­ companied his daughter himself, if I had not happened in just at that mo­ ment I never dreamt of her going, when I offered my services I meant to send Aaron's down instead of going myself, and then report whatever in­ telligence he brought me. No one would have been the wiser, and just as much credit would have been mine. A* it is, here I am in the heart of the disagreeable business, and without the nerve of a mouse to sec me through it! The brandy will brace me up, though”—and he poured out another glass. “Now—what • first and best to be done. I wonder? No magistrate for me. if I can help it. The beach!— perhaps it might be wise for toe to visit the beach, and see if the tide ha* brought anything in. The wave* wash up develish queer things sometimes!" hi* ghastly pallor came back again at that thought. "Thi*—thi* governess had some love affairs, the paper says, —if any such thing as a—a letter—or marriage certificate should come float­ ing in, it might be prudent for me to be in the way—on Florrie'* behalf, of course!—and secure it I" With that thought spurring him on he made haste down to the shore; choosing the shortest way, that along the straight narrow street that led directly from the hotel to the beach. A few casual and seemingly indiffer­ ent inquiries at the hotel posted him as to the names and whereabouts of the fishermen who had figured in the newspaper accounts, and had also in­ formed him that the body had not yet been found. "And likely won't be now." the clerk added. “It's missed the third tide, you see. and the fishermen round here say that, when that's the case, the chance* are it ha* drifted out to sea. Poor girl! They say her death came of some love affair. The fellow must have been hard to please who threw her over, for she was a beauty." Tremaine was paying for hi* brandy as this remark was made; he answer­ ed, without looking up, but with an ugly sneer:“Beauty is so entirely a matter of opinion, you sec, and 4he 'fellow' in question may not have admired her as much as you do. Besides, very beautiful women can make themselves as disagreeable as the devil some­ time*. Of course I don't speak of thi* particular case, since I never saw the lady. But it seem* to me you have rather prejudged the 'fellow' in the case down here; and he wouldn't have a specially fair chance if he should show himself among you." To which the clerk replied, warmly, that the “fellow" in question wa* a most infernal scoundrel and murderer. "Whether he laid hands on her or not!" he cried, hotly, "a man is just a* much a murderer of he hounds a girl on to suicide as if he took her life with hi* own hands! And this girl was as sweet and good as she wa* pretty. I wish the cursed coward would show hi* black-muzzled face here—that's all!" Mr. Tremaine laughed cynically. “You wouldn't be so quixotic as to take the duty of punishing him on yourself, surely?" said he. “And black­ muzzled? Ah, to be sure; he had a thick black beard! Well, 1 hope you you'll catch your black-muzzled scoundrel, my friend; but. if he’* wise, he won’t be in a hurry to come to Clifftownl" And he walked away briskly toward the shore, leaving the outspoken and warm-hearted clerk to gaze after him. half angry and wholly puzzled. Queer fellow that muttered .... clerk. “And I fancy I've seen him be­ fore. too! Seems to have more pity for a beastly assassin than for this poor, unhappy, lovely girl! Ah. well—but that's because he never saw beauti­ ful Helen Clare!" Meantime the man who had "never seen Helen Clare" went hurrying down to the beach, keeping sharp eye* and ears for aught that he might hear or see by the way. The tide was out. and the shore lay, broad and bare, at low water, with little pools and eddies here and there, glancing and glittering' in the sun. Away down at the water’s edge a group of fishermen, and some children, were standing; and toward these Mr. Tremaine made hi* way. “Have they found her?" he mutter­ ed, as he went along. "Good God! what’s that—lying iu their midst up­ on the sand? They have found her!" He stood still, where he wa»—afraid to advance another step and called to them. "What's that?" be shouted. "What have you got there?" Then, as they turned at his voice, he saw the object that had sent a thrill of horror through his frame, and Io! it wa* a fisher'* basket lying on the sand. The fisherman who owned it—Bob Simmons—came forward. "Wa* you looking for master?" he said. Tremaine answered a* possible—mastering, with the horror that had so nearly master­ ed him; "I heard—up in the town—that you had found the—the body of—of the lady who was drowned. I thought, at first, you had her lying there at your feet, and I called to you, for I am not used to such terrible sights, my friend. Where is she?" “The Lord knows!" answered Bob the anybody. calmly a* difficulty. Take’aRide and you will know Simmons, solemnly and sadly. "But I don’t, sir. Why. who could ha* tell- ed ^e that ? All Clifftown knows as »he ain t come in. and like enough as she won’t now! Who telled ye?” “A man I met on the road," said Tremaine, impatiently. “I don't know him—I am a stranger here. But what of the young lady, then? I wa* told to inquire for the fisherman who found her hat—Peter Smith, I think. Are you he?" Bob Simmons took off hi* hat and scratched his head, as if considering about hi* own identity. “Peter's out in hi* boat, a-fishing,— that's what he is," he answered at length, as he had finally settled the question to his own satisfaction at least. "Peter went out with the morn­ ing tide, and won't be home till the evening. This here"—singling out a dirty, sun-browned, barefooted boy of eight or nine—"this here, now, is Peter’s son, leastways one of his sons; but I don't reckon as he's got any­ thing to tell you." Tremaine glanced indifferently at the child, who standing sturdily with bare, brown leg* wide apart, stared at him with merry and bold black eyes, and all the candor of childhood. “No." said Tremaine. "I don’t sup­ pose the boy can tell me anything. Perhaps you yourself know if any­ thing was found besides the cloak and hat that the tide brought in?" "The tide brought the cloak," an­ swered Bob, “but the hat wa* catched in Peter’s net, you sje. No. nothin* else. We've been a-lookin' for the poor thing's body, but it ain't no use. She’s gone out to the deep sea, I reckon, to feed the sharks." Tremaine shuddered violently. “What a beastly, revolting ideal" he exclaimed. “And yet, what matter? Why not shark* as well as worms? Well, it was her own fault," he added, moodily—"at least, so 1 judge b> all 1 hear," he made haste to add. "Well, my friend. 1 came down to the beach to make inquiries, in the interest of friend* of the young lady,—one of them is now at Gordon House,—I thought the sea might have brought some fresh trace—who knows what? The waves do cast up queer thing* sometimes—" Here Peter Smith's boy broke in foreilby.“You just bet they do!" he cried, excitedly. “You oughter seen the cur­ ious thing our little Pete and me pick­ ed up on the sand last night. Sea­ weed it was, I guess; all like thick hair, mister—curly and wiry and black. I could ha’ got ten cent* for it from Miss Gordon, likely ; shc likes cur'- ou* sea-things. Sakcsf but thi* hairy sea-weed was queer 1" _ Mr. Tremaine's pallor and trembl­ ing had returned in force—he stared at the boy quite blankly.“Why. that must be an odd piece of of sea-weed, indeed," said he, re­ covering himself, and speaking to the boy pleasantly. “I like curious sea­ things. too. Maybe 1 might give you twenty-five cents, instead of ten, if you'll scD it to me. instead of keep­ ing it for Miss Gordon."The boy's open and eager face clouded suddenly and sadly."Sakes! ain’t that too bad? cned he. "Twenty-five cent* for a sea-weed! But I ain't got it, mister. Mammy took it from us and threw it on the heart to dry. and druv us to bed for fightiti’; and this morning the hairy thing ain’t anywhere round, nor not even in the ashes, and mammy say* she just brushed it up and the fire caught it. Ain’t it too bad? It was the cur’ouscst sea-weed ever I see," added the boy; and then, with for future business, "if ever . another like it. I’ll save it for you. if you like, sir."Tremaine assented carelessly. "I should certainly have given you twenty-fire cents for it if your mother hadn't burnt it." said he. "Where is your mother’s cottage?" The boy pointed out a very humble cottage far up the beach, with a little patch of sea-grass before the door, on which some net* were spread to dry. Two ladies were—at the moment Mr. Tremaine turned to look—just coming out of the door. •'That’s our house," said the boy. "Hallo! mother's got visitor* there! Why. one of them look* like—" /X deep, savage, muttered oath in­ terrupted him. Mr. Tremaine wa* star­ ing at Mr*. Smith’s “visitors," with hi* face strangely drawn and pale. “Caught I" he muttered fiercely. "There's the very sharp, kecn-cyed ferret I wanted to escape! Curse that girl! She's so acute, and so daring— it only needs half a hint to set her suspicion* working. Curse it all! Why couldn't Florrie stay till I came. or. if she must come to the beach in person, why couldn't she come unaccompanied by Amy Gordon?" an eye I find confused—but calm|y smiling at his own absurdity in ever having at all been afraid of thi* impulsive girl. He could guess—just a* well as if he had heard their conversation- how the»e two girl*, one heart in their love for Helen, had “laid their heads together" and compared note* con­ cerning him. They stood now, arm in arm. m combined attack upon him. and he read in the piqant face of Amy sharp suspicion and distrust, and in the calmer, nobler feature* of Florence a cold contempt and scorn for the man who had. no matter from what motive, stooped to the baseness of a lie. "It can't be the same Tremaine whom you met that night." she had said to Amy. “for thi* gentleman did not know, Clifftown, and told* us he had never been here in hi* life. I should be sorry to think that my father’s friend and business associate would lie! Besides, what possible motive could he have for doing so?" But this riddle impulsive Amy could not pretend to solve. “I don't like Mr. Tremaine!" she cried. "If thi* is the same man. and he ha*—for any reason—told a falsehood, there will be the fact to give color to my instinctive dislike at least. I wish you would let me go with you to meet him. Miss Hamilton, just to satisfy myself." And Florence—who liked her new acquaintance—poor Helen’s pupil- very much, consented readily enough. She had learned two things from Mrs. Gordon, at least; First, that Helen had asked for no holiday, and spoken of none; and secondly, that Helen was a wife. For Mrs. Gordon's doubts could find no echo, in the breast of Florence Hamilton. Helen had declared herself a wedded wife,—the absolute truth of thi* state­ ment, from her lip*. Florence never dreamed 6f questioning. “Helen was truth and purity itself!" she cried. "If you had known her as I knew her. Mrs. Gordon, you never would have doubted her. Oh. that you had communicated with her brother, long ago. and given us a chance to save her." She heard with regret of Mr. Aaron Graver's visit, which had taken place shortly before her arrival. "Graver!" she said—“I never heard Herbert or Helen mention the name; and as for being Bertie’s solicitor- why. my father's lawyer arranged whatever business there wa* when old Captain Clare died. But Herbert may have had some legal advisor whom he did not mention to me. of course; if so, I think papa will know of him.” Amy, who had taken a great fancy to her new friend, urged her to re­ main overnight, but thi* Florence de­ clined to do. “For I promised-papa to come home on the evening train, and besides. Mr. Tremaine spoke of some business in the city, and is in a hurry’ to get back. And what can I do for poor Helen here?but papa's ,lawyer may be able to do something; when I tell him the facts," she said. "But if—if she be found. I will come the moment you telegraph me. Mis* Gordon. I should like to visit the place where she last wa* seen, my poor, wrong, murdered Helen.” She would not hear of suicide. Hel­ en had been miserably married to some villian, and her untimely death was hi* foul work. Thi* wa* her in­ stinctive conviction from the first, a conviction from which she never wavered.The two girl* went down to Peter Smith’s cottage together. “We may meet Mr. Tremaine there,” said Flor­ ence.“And if it be the same, don t trust him ever again." cried Amy. "If he has lied, don't trust him.” Thus it happened that when Mr. Tremaine and Amy Gordon met face 1y and brown prccatingly that she should be sorry to think that Mr. Tremaine had any such hopes—assured her earnestly that she never had liked or trusted him. and should be further from doing so now than ever. And yet'his explanation had seemed- to her reasonable. So >nuch so that she never even thought of mention­ ing to her father that which, she wa* sure, he would not consider deceit. In­ stinct alone made her shrink from Tremaine and doubt him. feeling convincd within her soul—in spite of his plausible explanations—that “Mr. Tremaine—for some reason of hi* own —had stooped to the baseness of a Hel" He laughed lightly, next day. to Mr. Hamilton, at the "foolish prudery" of girlish morals. How they took a man to task for a mere slip of mem­ ory, as if it had been a crime. "Just because I had forgotten the name of a place that I never was in except once in my life. Miss Gordon bad schoolboy whotreats me like has not learned hi* lesson well; and will do her little utmost toward preju­ dicing Florence against me. too. Not that her 'utmost' may be so little, after all." he added, gloomily; "girls are so impressible.

So that al­ together. Mr. Tremaine felt himself so ill at ease, that on their arrival at the depot, he placed hi* fair com­ panion in a carriage, and excused him­ self, upon the plea of business, from escorting her to her home. He may have had business indeed. For, as the carraige containing Flor­ ence rolled away, a respectable-look­ ing, white-haired man—who carried a square package under one arm—came out of the depot, where he had been waiting a long,time—and beckoned earnestly to Mr. Treaine. was ’’SALADA” Never before has such eare been used bl preparing tees for the public.

PHONE 530 CHAPTER XXIV Confidences. “I had not the least intention of denying my acquaintance* with Cliff­ town, though it is of the slightest, said Mr. Tremaine, glibly. “The fact is. I did not recognize the name. The friend whom I expected to meet here the other night—on the occasion of my seeing you, Miss Amy—ha* always •poken of the place to me as 'Black Rock Point,' afid I had forgotten that it* true and lawful name wa* Clifftown. 1 was never here in my life until that occasion, nor since then, until to-day."■What was the name of the friend you came to meet. Mr. Tremaine?" asked Amy. looking bravely and fix­ edly into his eye*. "Smith." he answered; looking quite as boldly back into her* again, with a sort of defiant smile. "John Smith. Miss Amy. I doo't think he is any ac­ quaintance of yours, though', and I didn't meet him!"In his word*, and tone, and manner, there wa* such evident comprehension of her dislike, and defiance of her sus­ picions. that Amy drew back—with natural girlisW timidity— and baffled. After all, her doubts of him were in­ stinctive merely, without a particle of actual fact to bultd a foundation on. But if she had known that, in spite of hi* bold, indifferent, careless air, the meeting with her, and her recogni­ tion of him in Florence Hamilton's presence, had so far disturbed him a* to drive all remembrance* of Peter Smith'* “curious sea-weed" from hi* mind, she might better have appreciat­ ed the importance of the dew which Fate had given into her ignorant hands; as it was, she only blamed herself again for a groundless preju­ dice against Mr. Tremaine, and knew not that she held a dew at alt “But don’t trust him, Mis* Hamil­ ton." she whispered, as she drew Flor­ ence a little apart in order to bid her good-bye. “If you begin by trusting him you'll end by marrying him;—oh, I've got sharp eyes! I can read Mr. Tremaine's wishes I so pray don't trust — I" Florence—while she replied de- CHAPTER XXIII “A Recognition." There was no one to answer these questions, however, and nothing for him to do but hasten toward the ladies who had seen, and now stood waiting for him. A* he approached— masking his annoyance by a courte­ ous bow and smile—Amy Gordon ex­ claimed aloud, in her impulsive wav: “Why. of course it is the same Mr. Tremaine! How do you do, Mr. Tre­ maine? I hope the sight of me, thi* afternoon, will be more welcome to you than it was the other night, when, I am afraid, you wished upon me— malediction!"The word, from those sweet, refin­ ed. and girlish lips, rather startled Florence Hamilton; but it sras the tone and manner in which the word wa* spoken that absolutely electrified Mr. Tremaine. It conveyed at once a challenge and a defiance. An older. . colder, more expericnvcd person would have given him neither of .these. It was as if she had said to him—"I suspect you—I know not why. or of what—but I suspect you, and I am your enemy." And Tremaine, having thus been shown hi* opponent's hand, wa* on hi* guard accordingly. He kept hi* temper and self-posses­ sion perfectly, and answered Mis* Amy with a half reproachful smile. “You are very »c*«c ujion me tor an involuntary impolitenc**, he »aid. "It wa* not for you that I meant that uglv word. Can you not forgive me?" She tossed her saucy little head with an air that implied that she esteemed him and hi* sin* scarcely with for­ giveness."I might accept your apology, if I could believe it sincere," »hc said. "But I doubt your sincerity. Mr. Tre­ maine. Why did you tell Mis* Hamil­ ton you did not know Clifftown—that you never had been here in your life?"

J MALONE THE SMART MEN’S AND BOYS’ STORE A Woman Wronged (Continued from page 11) is a match for some women of twenty, and the vainest and most vindictive specimen of womankind I ever met. I'm afraid I have brought all this ill- will upon myself by flirting with her a little—innocently, of course—and look­ ing upon her merely as a precocious child. She has given me to under­ stand. however, that she was very much in earnest—in fact, that she was in love with me. I wa* fool enough to remonstrate with her on her folly, and tell her that she was but a child, and now I am reaping my reward. Jeal­ ousy. wounded vanity, pique—Heaven knows which of the many motives that sway female hearts—make her my enemy; and as I foresee a close intamacy about to spring up between her and Florence, doubtless she will eventually succeed in making Florence my enemy, too." The reader, who has had i into poor, honest, impulsiv Gordon’s 1 false this Hamilto.-q glimpse Amy utterly was: hut Mr. uch knowledge; therefore Mr. Tremaine’* words bore their intended fruit of prejudice in his mind, and dislike of his daughter's new acquaintance. The friendship between the two young girls ripened apace, neverthe­ less. For Amy. who never did any­ thing by halves, had quite fallen in love with "her poor, dear Helen’s friend." and took an early opportu- of coming to New York to visit her. Florence—whose desire to hear all that was possible. of her lost friend wa* very- sincere—urging her to remain fora few­ days, an invitation which wa* accept­ ed frankly, greatly — ------- and somewhat to secret annoyance. Each felt that the presence of this bright, shrewd girl was inimical to the success of his plan*. "She reads us like a book!" said Mr. Hamilton, with more regard for emphasis than for „ 2 what Florrie’s bright eyes don’t point out for themselves. " ’ will point out to her! It was so. indeed. Before she had been two day* and nights under Mr. Hamilton’s roof, Amy had fathomed the secret of his wishes. "Your papa is very fund of Mr. to Mr. Tremaine’s Mr. Hamilton’s grammar. "And thi* little witch Tremaine," she said, abruptly, to Flor­ ence, as they were disrobing for the night. "He would like him for a son- in-law." Florence blushed rosy red. and then turned very pale. Recent event. 2._2 driven this old nightmare from her thoughts of late, and she had flattered herself that her father­ having plainly seen her preference for Herbert, and having said no word of disapproval thereof—that her father had abandoned the idea. She knew, instinctively, that he had once enter­ tained it. To have it thus suddenly and positively presented to her con­ sideration once more,—and by a stranger.—and that stranger one for whose shrewdness she entertained a great respect—was startling to say the very least. "How do you—how can you possibly know?" she demanded, faintly. "What makes you think so, Amy?" Amy laughted significantly. “The lookers-on often sec most of the game." she said, with prccociou* wisdom. "Your papa is honest and good-hearted enough and loves you dearly; but Mr. Tremaine is a cunning villain, I am sure. One can some­ times sec Mr. Tremaine’s wishes in his eye* when they look at you. my dear- only sometimes, though, when he for­ gets himself, which is not often—and Mr. Hamilton evidently believes in him to such an extent that he thinks it would be an excellent thing even his idolized Florence to be ried to such a charming, clever able gentleman! And then they business interests in common, told me, which would make the riage so convenient for al! panics. Oh, you may trust my penetration, dear: I have watched them, and says I am very acute: rest that Mr. Tremaine’s wishes concern­ ing you are known to your father and approved by him to the full I" The conviction was not a pleasant one, and yet it went home to florrie’s heart. Why else was Mr. Tremaine theri so constantly? She found her­ self continually called upon to enter­ tain him. If she desired to go to any­ place. Mr. Tremaine was ever ready to escort her, and could not be refus­ ed without offense; if she, as some­ times happened, pointedly requested her father to take her anywhere. Mr. Tremaine would be certain to "chance upon them.” and thus make one of the party. And how could these things be unless with her father's aid and ap­ probation? She sat silent for a few­ minutes after Amy ceased to speak- sat. turning these things over in her mind—then drew a long breath thoughtfully. ’"I am afraid you are right," she said, al last: . Amy fell down suddenly on knees before her, and flung her soft arms around her, in her pretty, girlish, impulsive way. "And would you marry him?" she cried, almost passionately. "This man, who—if there is no worse to accuse him of—shows no sympathy, and feels none, for our grief, is as unconcerned and cool over poor Helen’s death as if we were mourning the drowning of some pct kitten! Oh, Florrie, believe that I am right in this also, that he is a bad, heartless man! All the fathers and mothers in the world should not make you marry him!" went on the little rebel, impetuously. "Oh, Florrie, surely you will not be his wife!" They were sitting near the open window—for the night was warm. Florence raised her dark eyes to the starlit sky, and spoke solemnly. "Never!” she said, quietly, but in intense, low tones. "Never, Amy! Let Helen’s fate, and in Helen’s fashion, be mine rather! Yes"—she went on with deliberate emphasis—"I swear to you that-I would rather walk out upon that lonely, dreadful rock, and cast than single mamma assured I am afraid you are right." her myself headlong into the sea, become the wife—even for one hour—of Mr. Tremaine!"
