A young girl, whoea family had one

and turned away, for to her eya the
glow which Rom called health waa but
the hectic bloom of death.
"How beautiful tht itT ttld more than

truly Rom waa beautiful that night, but
like tht gorgeout foliage ot the fading

throng.
Juat then Ida and Mary were- an

Before Henry could answer, a young

"TbitT Oh, thtt'i Mlsa Howard, from

Later in the evening, William Bender
came, and Immediately Jenny began to
talk to him ot Mary, and the impresalon
b waa making. Placing her hand
familiarly upon hla arm, a though that
were it natural resting place, ahe led
him toward a group, of which Mary
accrued the center of attraction. Near

ceited ii he wn, he could not help no
ticing how differently h received Will
iam Bender from what tht hid himself.
"But ill In good time," thought he,
glancing tt Ella, to to how the wat ef
fected by hit desertion of her tod hit
flirtttion with her lister. She wtt stand
ing a llttlt apart from any on, and with
her elbow resting upon a marble atand.
ber cheeki flushed, and her eyelishea
moist with tht tetrt the dare not shed,
he wit witching with feelings in which
more of real pain than Jealousy waa min
gled, for Ella wat weak and eimpler
hetrted, tnd loved Henry Lincoln rar
better than euch tt ht deterred to be
loved.
"Of what ire you thinking. EllaT"
taked Rose, who finding herself nearly
alone, felt willing to convene with al
most tnyono.
At tb. sound ot her vote Ella looked
up, and coming quickly to ber aide, atld:
"It's to dull tnd loneiome here, I wish
I'd atayed tt home."
In her heart Rom wished ao, too, but
ah was too proud to acknowledge It,
and feeling unusually kind towtrd Ella,
whoto unetslneai ahe readily understood,
he replied: "Oh, I see you are Jetlout
of Henry, but he't only trying to teiM
you, for he cin't t Interested in that
awkward thing."
"But he la, I almost know he la, re
turned Ella, with a trembling of the
voice th tried la Vila to tubdue; and
then, fearing tb could Bat long r

twty from Rom, and nn hastily np to
tht dreatlng-room.'
Nothing of all thi escaped Henry s
quick eye, aad at sundry onptld bills
earn looming up before bla mind, be
thought proper to mtke tome tmendt
for hit neglect. Accordingly, when Ella
returned to the drawing room he offered
ber hit arm, asking: "Whit made her
eye. so red," and alyly preising her hind,
when ahe averted her face, laying:
"Nothing tbey weren't red."
Meantime, William Bender, having
managed to drop Jenny from bi arm, bad
atked Mary to accompany him to tht corj
aervatory. , At they atood together, ad
miring a rare exotic, WUIItm't manner
auddenly changed, and drawing Mary
closer to hi tide, ht taid distinctly,
though hurriedly: "I notice, Mary, that
yoo seem embarrassed in my presence,
and I hare, therefore, (ought thi oppor
tunity to ttinr you that I aba 11 not tgoin

which. If returned, would now glva me

bitter struggle to give yoo up, but rea
aon aad judgment finally conquered, and
bow I can calmly think of yon a some
time belonging to another, and wltn an
a brother'a confidence ean tell yon that
I, too, lor another not aa one I loved
yoo, for that would be Impossible, but
with a calmer, mora rational love."
All thit time Mary bid not spoken.
though the hind which William bid tak

bird; but when be came to apeak of lov
ing mother, th Involuntarily raised bit
bind to her Up, exclaiming, "It's Jenny,
It's Jenny!"
You htva guessed rightly,' returned
William, nulling tt the earnettnesa ot
bar manner. "It it Jenny, though how
inch t ttate of thing ever came about It
more than I can tell you." '
Fearing that they might be missed, they
at last retnrn-d to tlie parlor, where
ther found Ell nexi - l nt the piuoo, play
Ina a very snirin-d uol'sa. Henry, who
bottted ha "could wind her around bit
little finger," hid iiicceedt-d in coaxing
her Into food humor, but not at all de-
airlng her company for the reat of the
evening, be naked her to pity at tne t li
cit war to be rid ot her. When -tie loon
ad around for commendation from th.
one for whose ear atone ahe bad played
he law him aero th room wholly enj-
eroased with her alster.
Poor Ella! it waa with the tiddest
heartache ah had ever known thtt ahe
returned from a party which had prom
ised ber ao much pleasure, and which
bad given ber ao much pain. Bote, too,
waa utterly disappointed. One by on
ber old admirer bad left ber for tne ao
riety of th "pauper," tt the tecretly
styled Mtry, tnd more thin one during
the evening hid aha heard tne oeauiy
and "eraee" of her rival extolled by
thoM for whoM opinion aha cared the
mnat: and when at 1 o'clock in the morn

Ala, for thee, Rose! that declaration
proved too true!

HUNTING WITH THE CAMERA.
K Dellahtfail aaitt Pro-tabl Way of
Ftalylna mra tair.
Of tb many delightful birds I had
the good fortune to know, the worm
eating warbler faintly hare afforded
me the greatest pleasure; for tbey be
come absolutely fearless of tbe cam
era, and tbey place degree of trust in
one that was as unusual as It waa de
lightful. Being anxious to secure pbo-
toftrsphs of tbe young, I paid frequent
visit to tbe nest and what a wouaer
fully concealed nest It was, tucked
away In a email depression and bidden
by the roots of an oak sapling. It would
forever have remained undiscovered by
me had I not, by lucky chance, observ
ed one of tbe parent birds visiting it
Only at first did the owners object to
my Intruding, and by varloua methods
did they try to coax me away from
their home. First one and then the
other would feign broken wings, and
half - rolling, half scrambling, tbey
would make their way down the ateep
hlUalde In tbe bope ot luring me away.
Then, finding that I waa not to be taken
In even by aucb an artful device, they
endeavored to accomplish their object
by scolding at me. In less than two
hour they quieted down and simply
looked on In alienee. Tbe next time
I visited the nest they made no objec
tions, and I Imagined tbey recognised
me, and realised that I meant no barm
either to themselves or to their young,
for these bad hatched since my last
visit
Pay by day I came to watch the little
fellows, and they grew rapidly, aa an
young birds da Finally they were
ready to make their first venture Into
the great world that, should not acci
dent befall them, was to be their feed
ing ground for many years to come.
Aa I looked Into the nest tbe family
of fledgllnga acrnmbled out ss though
tbey bad been scattered by some Invis
ible hand, so nearly etinultaneous was
tbclr action, and In less time than It
take to tell It eacb little mite ot down
and rust-colored feathers waa bidden
among tbe dead, crackling leaves with
which tbe ground waa strewn. Though
I had tried my best to watch where
each bird concealed Itself, it waa aome
time before I collected them all pre
paratory to photographing them. Of
course the parents were greatly excited
birds always are wben their young
first leave the nest and when the)
saw the entire brood captured by one
whom tbey bad considered a friend
tbey seemed to regret having placed so
much confidence In me. But only for
a very short time did their doubts con
tinue. As soon ss I placed the young
sters on suitable perch they both
ceased to utter that lisping note of anx
ious protestation, and to ahow that they
no longer feared ms tbey bopped about
on tbe camera while I waa arranging

Telluride, Colo., July 9. With the
positive information from Lieutenant
Governor Coates, a member of the
commission appointed by the governoi
to investigate the strike in the Smuggler-Union
mine, that Governor
Oman would not send troops, and
with the assurance from the mine
managers of the district that they
could not longer afford to close down,
Arthur L. Collins, manager of the
Smuggler-Union mines, haa conceded
several points, and a settlement be
tween himself and the Miners' Union
has been made.
This ends the strike, and many
miners will return to 4 work im
mediately. , '
Tbe terms of settlement are .looked
upon as a victory for tbe miners, and
tonight hundreds are celebrating in
Telluride. The tension of the last
four days haa been removed and the
miners and citizens alike are jubilant.
The agreement was signed after a con
ference lasting three hours. The
miners declare that the settlement is
a victory for them, but Manager Col
lins claima that he is satisfied and
that he has not conceded any material
points. The local union held a meet
ing tonight and declared the strike off.
By tbe terms of the settlement non
union men may be employed in the
Smuggler-Union mines. It is certain,
however, that the union miners will
not allow non-union men to remain
so any longer than they can help.
The union is permitted, through its
president or secretary, to declare a
man incompetent and order his dis
charge. Thi. feature of tbe settle
ment is distinct advantage to the
union, and will enable the union to
regulate unionism in the minec- The
secretary is given the right to visit
the mine at any time, snd can order
the measuring of the men's work
whenever he wishes, even though the
man has worked but one hour. ; He
can also order the payment of the
men at any time. Tbe Liberty Bell
and Tomboy mines, which were closed
during the Smuggler-Union trouble,
will also open again. The following
is the agreement :
First The company agrees not to
discriminate against the union or
the members thereof, and the union
and the members thereof agree not to
molest nor nor interfere with non
union men.
Second The union expresses its
entire disapproval of the recent out
rages. Third The company agrees to let
the president or secretary of the local
union have full access to its surface
property at all reasonable hours; pro
vided that the work of the men ia not
interfered with.
Fourth The union agrees to use
all its influence to stop the illicit sell
ing of liquor in Marshall Basin or
around the mine.
Fifth The company is to have the
right to let contracts to any men who
wiah to take them, all such contracts
to be on printed forms which are here
after to be drafted by a representative
of tbe union and representative of
the company.

New York; July 9. A dinner was
given tonight at the Union League
club to General Maximo Gomez and
General T. Estrada Palma, by W. E.
D. Stokes. Mr. Stokes was formerly a
member of the Cuban league of Amer
ica, and was closely identified with
the work of the junta, of which Gen
eral Palma was the head. The Cuban
general made a brief speech, which
was interpreted by General Gonzales.
General Gomez said he was deeply
touched by the remarkable reception
he had received in the United States.
Cuba and the United States, said the
general, belong together. It is only
a question of gravitation when they
will be one. But at present, after the
great struggle in which thousands pf
lives were sacrificed, and when men
returned to their homes only to find
their wives and children starved to
death in the restricted barriers in
which Weyler had them under his
policy of concentration, they felt that
they must have Cuban libre. It is
now fully realized. He said that
Cuba cannot get along without the
United States, but the Cubans want
to feel freedom. ' .
After dinner General Gomez said to
the newspaper men that he wished to
express his gratitude to the press of
the United States and ot the world tor
the great good they had done to the
cause of Cuban libre. He was sure
that the Cubans would now establish
their own government, 'and would
show" the gratitude they feel for the
help of the Americans in removing
the Spanish yoke.
