A QUESTION of COURAG
A DIVERSITY OP OPINIONB.
Kind-hearted Mrs. Ludlow, overflow'
ins- with the sympathy which is the
meed of troubled lovers at the hands of
affectionate and disinterested woman
kind the world over, waited impatiently
for her guest to make, his appearance
on the morning following his excursion
with the colonel. Breakfast was ready
and waiting, and the small hostess hov
ered about the table, deftly arranging
the china and adding a last touch of
artistic negligence to the bowl of roses
forming the center-piece, pausing now
and then to glance out of the window
at the figure of her husband poised con
tentedly on two legs of his chair and
reading the inevitable newspaper.
Presently she went to the door. "Tom
I wish you'd call Air. Kingbrand; Aunt
. Mima's boon up twice, and the break
lust's getting cold."
Ludlow burst his way out of the laby
rinth of news and tramped heavily up
stairs to the door of the guest s room
"Hugh!" he called. "Oh, Hugh! going
to lie abed all day?"
There was no answer, and he opened
the door. The bed had not been occu
pied, and it flashed upon him that-R'uig-
brand had suddenly acted upon the hint
that he might find it impossible to en
dure the ordeal of a formal leave-tak
ing. Ludlow went downstairs, trying
to think of some way of telling his wife
- without reflecting too severely upon hit
friend's lack of courage. ,
"Yon said Kingbrand went up witr
the colonel yesterday, didn't you?" ht
asked, hoping to gain time.
"Why, yes; they drove off togethe-
about three o'clock."
"Well, he didn't come back. Perhap'
the Latimers kept him."
Airs. Ludlow looked puzzled. "I hard
ly thought he would stay. I rather ex
pectcd him back to tea last evening
It isn't like turn to stay away withon
XAdlow looked puzzled. "I hardly thought-
be would stay
saying something or sending word
: She seated herself behind the coffee
nrn and touched the bell for Aunt
Mima. .
"Oh, I don't know about that." re
plied her husband carelessly, taking his
place opposite. "A man's liable to do
anything when he's a badly hipped as
Hugh is."
"Please, Toin, tell me all about it,
won't you ? I can't get a word out of
Hester, and Hugh, goes about looking
like a man who had losfall his friends
in a single night."
"I don't know anything to tell, except
what is evident enough to a man up
a moderately tall tree. Hugh has
about as pronounced a ease as I ever
saw develop in so short a time, and it'll
go hard with him if he doesn't win. If
Hester should refuse him, I shouldn't
be surprised to have him leave us
without a word; it would be very much
like him." So much good-natured Tom
Ludlow ventured on the chance that
Hingbrand had carried out his fhreat
"Whv should Hester refiiKH him?"
J . ""Rless Trt v Rniil! hnw Khmilrl T lfnnw?
rm not in the young woman's confidence;-
and, besides, I don't know that
she has.".
. Ludlow hurried through his break
fast, and breathed freely again when he
was well out of ear-shot of his home.
Tm a lucky man!" he chuckled;, "five
minutes more, and she'd have had the
whole story out of me, and 1 really
mustn't tell her that not yet awhile;
- it d be cruelty to animals. I'd like to
know if that addle-pated rascal has
actually taken French leave. I must

comes down to-day."
the colonel did come down, but Lud
low learned nothing more than that
Kingbrand had left "The Laurels" quite
t-arly in the evening, that he had in
sisted upon walking, and that he had
taken the north road instead of turning
uiwaru lregurmen. juiuuow guarded
his inquiries carefully, but the colonel's
hospitality took the alarm at Once.
"Do I understand that youh friend
didn't come home las' night?" he asked.
Ludlow admitted it, and hastened to
add that Kingbrand was sometimes
rather erratic in his movements. '
' ""I reckon it would be something a
little mo' than erratic if he camped out
on the mountain all night; thah's no
' house this side of Squire Craven's, an'
that's a good ten mile." '-'.. '
"Perhaps he went on down the road
to Dunbar," suggested Ludlow; "he's
good for a long tramp if he felt like it.
He'll turn, up all right." .
The colonel looked thoughtful. ."I
hope so; indeed, I do. Hes a mighty
fine young gentleman, and we-all think
a heap of him up on the mountain. He
told me yeste'day that he was going
back to New York bef o' long."
Ludlow took this as a confession of
.lua suspicion, and. answered, accord
ingly: "Yes; he's quite anxious to get
back to his work." '
Here the matter rested, and the three
people who knew of Ring-brand's dis
appearance held widely different views
as to its motive. Mrs. Ludlow, finding
the. packed valises in the guest's room
reluctantly gave place to the carefully
insinuated suggestion of her husband
that the young man had fled because
Hester had refused him; Ludlow, some
what better informed, was quite sure
that the unceremonious departure was
due to Bingbrand's failure to win in the
battle with his weakness; while the.
colonel went home with a slightly-con
fused idea of the unaccountability of
authors and story writers, whose
vagaries led them to refuse the hospi
talities of a comfortable mansion for
the sake of spending the night in wan
dering about on the mountain. Impart
ing his convictions to Hester, together
with the information that Hingbrand
hud not returned to Tregarthen, he
awakened an emotion in the heart of
that ingenuous young woman which
had slept quite peacefully through the
unobtrusive wooing of her lover; and
her -quick intuition, finding a better
trajectory than the logic of the ethers.
went nenre.r the mark, filling her with
vague apprehensions for Itingbrand's
safety. She immediately recalled the
conversation of the previous evening.
remembering his abstraction and the
abrupt leave-taking. Then she recol
lectcrt that Henry had been the last one
who had seen him, and she quickly ob
tained nil the information that could be
gleaned from that source. It contained
a grain of comfort in the assurance that
he was not unarmed; but she could not
help thinking that the mere possession
of the revolver promised little for his
safety.
The following morning she mounted
Pluto and rode straight to Mrs. Lud
low's, in the hope of finding that her un
defined premonition of trouble was
groundless; but there had been no word
from the missing guest, and the small
matchmaker made an unsuccessful at-
temt to conceal her resentment toward
the girl who had, so ruthlessly demol
ished her beautiful air castles of domes
tic felicity.
"Where do you suppose he can be?"
asked Hester, when the conversation
had been brought around by carefully
guarded a pproaches to the object which
had- prompted her early ride down the
mountain.
"I'm sure f don't know," replied Airs.
Ludlow, trying to look properly severe.
"Perhaps he's lost on the mountain;
I'm sure I'm glad we didn't turn him
out to to get lost.
Hester looked mystified and hurt
"Why, Helen, do you mean that we
ought to have 'tried harder to keep
him?"
"I think you wouldn't have had to try
very hard, if you'd cared anything at ail
about him.
Hester blushed painfully and hesi
tated. "It would be foolish to seem not
to understand you, Helen, but but it
isu'tatall as you think; indeed, it isn't."
And her voice quavered a little at the
end.

Driving IiUM Horse.
There is a state law prohibiting cru
elty to animals, which is just as appli
cable in The Dalles as anywhere else,
and has iD times past been enforced in
our city. A delivery horse was noticed
this morning; with a lame foot, traveling
along very painfully, and requiring to
be urged with the laeh because of its
lameness.. A nail was perhaps piercing
the quick and each step cost the poor
brute excruciating pain. Whenever.'one
notices a lame horse being driven he
may know that the driver is either ig
norant regarding what is due to the
rights of a life, or that, baring knowl
edge of the pain endured by the animal,
he is too case-hardened to care for its
suffering. A selfish reason, if no other,
should inspire a driver to stable a borse
with a lame foot nntil it is well, for a
horse may be rained forever by a nail or
wound unattended to. .
Baldness is either hereditary or caused
by sickness, mental exhaustion, wear
ing tight-fitting hats, and by over-work
and trouble. Hall's Ren ewer will pre

THAT IRISH ESTATE.
"Ked
Band"' O'Kalll'a Descendants
Balra to ISO Mtliloaa. .
The story in yesterday' Chronicle
seems to bave had its foundation in an
article that appeared in the Catholic
Seatinel of July 9th. The Sentinel gives
Mrs. Tbos. Woods and F. H. Van Nor-
den as The Dalles claimants to the
estate, and a very romantic story is told
In connection therewith. -Below is the
Sentinel article:
A hundred and eighty million dollars
seems a sum far beyond even the dreams
of the very wealthy, to say nothing of
the ordinary, every-day person. Yet in
Victoria, B. C, living in a modest little
house on Herald street, are a family
that do not" dream, but look forward
with quiet confidence to possessing not
only this enormous sum, but a whole
Irish county thrown in.
Mr. A. P. Freimuth. who came here a
short time ago and now plays the solo
cornet in the Fifth Regiment oand and
wields the baton as leader of the Vic
toria theatre orchestra, is the husband
of one of the claimants to the estate of
the O'Neils of Antrim. Mrs. W. E.
Ward, of Los Angeles, Mrs. Froimuth's
mother, is at present visiting her
daughter, and in the fail is going over
to Ireland on behalf of the American
heirs to claim the estate. From ' the
two ladies the history of the quest was
learned.
'The estate they say has been in chan
cery for something like fifty years for
want of an heir. Mrs. Ward's father,
John Falls O'Neill, was a younger son
of old Hugh O'Neill, the last to hold the
estate. Being a younger eon John Falls
O'Neill went to the United States to
seek bis fortune, and after remaining
for some time in St. Louie, got the gold
fever in 1849, and joined the stream
of
those who came to the Pacific coast
He was captain in the Black Hawk war.
and now lies buried at Quincy, Plumas
county. Now his descendants are look
ing eastward to a store of gold that far
exceeds the expectations that drew the
old "Forty-niner" to the West. '
Cant. O'Neill leaves five children
alive, Richard O'Neill, of Bakerafield
California; Charles Terrence O'Neill, of
Los Angeles; Mrs. Mary F. Bell, of
Froville, Col. ; Mrs. Theresa C. Wheeler
of Oakland, and Mrs. W. E. Ward, of
Los Angeles. There are three grand
children also Mrs. Freimutn, wno is
Mrs. Ward's daughter: Mrs. Tom
Woods, of The Dalles, Oregon, and F,
H. VanNorden, of the same place
children - of Mrs. Lizzie O'Neill Van
Norden, now deceased.
We are the only direct beire,"' said
Mrs. Ward. "We can trace our ances
try right back to the 'Red Hand' as the
first of our line was called. We have
bad lawyers working on the case for
years in England, and now they tell ns
that all we have to do is to come over
and claim our own. I have the family
seal and the old documents to prove we
really are the heirs to the estate, and
will take them over with me to England
this fall with my brother, Charles Ter
rence O'Neill, who is coming np here
soon to go with me."
There are other O'Neills who would
like to have a share of the millions, but
Mrs. Ward says they cannot prove their
descent, and it in only ber brothers and
sisters, her daughter, neice and nephew,
who will come into the estate. There is
a romantic story of how the first O'Neill
came bv his property and .his name of
the "Red Hand."
In the good old-faehiuned way of sov
ereigns Henry II conferred a great tract
of land in County Antrim on the one of
two suitors who would get there first.
Of these the Red O'Neill was one. The
time of the contest was fixed ; good
King Henry acted as starter, the course
being from Windsor Castle to the land
in question, the condition being that the
man who first laid hand on the land
should take the prize.
Away sped O'Neill and his rival for
the Emerald Isle and crossed the Irish
sea heedless of anything but of the land
greed that even in the present day has
actuated the wild rush of the "boomer."
Arrived at Lough Neagh, O'Neill's rival
secured the first boat, but' O'Neill was
sood after him in a second. The rival
was almost across to the strand, which
marked the limit of the promised land
and prepared to spring ashore.
O'Neill, to prevent the fair demesne
being ' snatched from him, drew his
sword, sliced off his left hand deftly and
with a mighty effort threw the bloody
hand ashore just before his rival sprang
trom his boat. The O'Neill's hand first
touching land made him owner of the
magnificent property for which the heirs
araj now etriving.
Last of Barth.
The remains of Mrs. Irvine were
brought to The Dalles on last night's
passenger train and the funeral took
place at 10 :30 this morning from the
undertaking rooms of Wm. Michel!. A
number of old citizens followed the re
mains to tbeir last resting place in Odd
Fellows cemetery. .
Mrs. Catherine Irvine was born in In
diana Oct. 28, 1838, and consequently
was 58 years of age. She was married
to John Irvine at The Dalles May 27,
1855, and has lived in this vicinity ever
since. Eight children bave been born
to them, four of whom passed-to the
silent shore before her final summons
came. Two sons and two daughters
still remain. Mrs. Irvine died in Salem
July 14, 1896. ' -

A Mathematical Problem.
Editor Chronicle:
If the people of the United States pro
duce $100,000 worth of silver bullion, sell
the same in foreign markets, and with
(he proceeds buy $100,000 worth of the
products of foreign labor, said people of
tbe United States will have added to
their wealth just $100,000.
Should the peopls of the United States
com said bullion into $200,UU0, they
could only get $100,000 worth of the
product of foreign labor for it;' but
would be bound to take it back and pay
therefor $200,000 worth of the products
of their labor. How much would the
people of the Unite4 States lose? An-weiv-$100,000.
Suppose the $200,000 coinage is kept
by tbe people ot the United States?
How much as a nation have they gain
ed? Answer Nothing.

Editor Chroniclb: ' -
The question is frequently asked,
"Why is silver bullion worth less uow
than it was prior to the 'crime' of '73?"
There are many and varied answers to
that question, and from the scholarly
mass of incongruities we turn away dis
heartened, and look still farther for a
solution compatible with our common
sense. Our common sense teaches that
tbe circulation of. money, and money
only, cannot possibly add one iota to a
people's prosperity. It is the exchange
ot the products of human labor, which
brings comfort, gladness, morality and
civilization to the toiling millions of this
old world of ours. The business and
purpose of the money as nsed by civil
ized man is to stand in lieu of the prod
ucts of human- labor as they travel
through the various arteries of trmle.and
it is obvious that it must be a standard
to which all commodities are referred
for measurement as to value. Our com
mon sense says that the money which
will effect' the exchange of the various
objects of commerce, certainly and eco
nomically, is good.
Silver when stamped by a sonnd gov
ernment is certain, but very expensive,
It costs about forty per cent of its
stamped value, present standard, to pro
duce it. Forty per cent ia a big bonus
to pay for the scales to weigh with. The
gains of ye man prior to and since '73
has devised means of circumventing
this enormous production, and silver
money, coined money of all kinds, ex
cept in fractional parts of a dollar, is
being relegated to the shades of com
mercial oblivion, there to rest in com
pany with those life-seeking, liberty
crushing abominations of antiquity
the thumb screw and the rack. There
is reared instead of this gloomy, fore
boding monster, the grandest financial
system the world has ever known.
refer to that noblest monument to man's
mighty genius, tbe 'bank credit system
through which about 95 per cent of the
-business of the world is done today
The basis of this mighty commercial
structure rests on the broad foundation
of nature. Through this system -the
product of one section is exchanged for
tbe product of another with certainty
and economy. To illustrate: An east
ern manufacturer sells the merchants of
The Dalles $100,000 worth of goods.
His agent buys from the customers of
the merchants $100,000 worth of wool
fruit, wheat, etc. Through the banks
the exchanges are made with very little
expense to any of the thousands of the
parties interested. The bank money
checks are perfectly . sound, and so
long . as tbe dealings throughout are
sound, are equal to gold in any part of
the country. Thus we see the wool, the
wheat, the fruit and the manufactured
articles, exchanging with perfect free
dom and safety.
This condition of things - is not I
dream of the Utopiast ; but a reality.
That such a condition ia possible; that
we, the people of the world, and especi
ally we, the people of this grand repub
lic, have reached that high standard of
commercial honor which makes this
system of freedom possible, should cause
each heart to look in admiration for the
possibilities of the human race.
This grand innovation which has torn
from our hands tbe shackles of an un
natural money, is so completely in line
with the material law of commerce that
it is bound to endure and grow in favor
as man's morality grows.
The system is vigorously attacked by
demagogues, who' know only such wea
pons as prejudice, malice and jealousy
Tbey tell the people that bankers are
a bard lot; that they receive 8 and 10
per cent interest, open their banks at 9
and close at 4, and have a good time
generally at other people's expense.
Still our common sense continues to
whisper in a "still small voice" that
there is no justice In coining 100-cent
dollars from 50-cent bullion, and have
our dear old Uncle Sam guarantee' they
are just as good as gold, when tbe buyers
and sellers of the world have declared
by tbeir acts that they don't want them,
and don't use the dollars that are now
coined. To force Uncle Sam to sign
such guarantee would almost break his
heart, and entirely break his credit.
But let's go back to the question.
Silver bullion is not worth as much as it
was prior to '73, because the people
won't use it as money as they did then.
The bullion owner would like to have
bis 50 cents worth of bullion made worth
100 cents; so would the owner of 50
cents worth of wheat, 25 cents worth of
potatoes, etc., like a scheme of this kind
applied to his possessions.
We have simply outgrown silver as a
money. The general enlightenment ot
the matter which our public school sys
tem baa made possible, haa swept from
the earth nearly every vestige of that
horrible idea, "vicarious' atonement."
The world has grown strong in individn
ali8m. Now we have, standing at tbe
head of every successful cominercia'
concern, men and women whose moral
stamina lifta them out, far out, beyond
the reach of all temptation to do a
wrong commercial act.
This condition of things is realized by
the masses to a great extent. -The com
mercial men and bankers of today are
gods when compared to the Shy locks of
ye olden times, or ye political tricksters
of ye modern times. F. S. G. -
