Black Chip and White Plumes
The much over worked, willow
plume is a thing of yesterday, having
gone to a well-deserved rest in the
grave of styles passe. In its place
have come the aigrette, long popular,
but this year on the very crest of the
wave; and the always beautiful, al
ways serviceable ostrich plume, both
curled and uncurled. A graceful ar
rangement of the curled plumes is
achieved in the hat sketched above.
This model was of the fine black chip,
having a high crown and wide in
dented brim with most becoming
curves. This hat is entirely untrim
med except for the bank of white
feathers massed at the left of the
brim af.d drf oping gracf fully over the
crown.

A Mystery
Unraveled
By MARY G. COLBY
My father died before my mother,
and at, her death a woman who had
been In the family kept up the house
and took care of me. I was then a
girl of ten, not old enough to know
anything about my affairs or why Miss
Meade assumed the position she occu
pied. She was not an agreeable per
son, as I remember ber in those days,
but she was all I had in the world to
fove, and I tried to love her.
She gave me to understand that she
had promised my mother at her death
she would take care of me and bring
me up.
The only person who ever to my
knowledge came to see her was a
smooth faced professional looking
man, who used to have long conversa
tions with her. After awhile I learn
ed that his name was Cheatham and
that he was an attorney. There was
something repellent about him, and
whenever be came to the house I took
pains to keep out of his way.
One thing did not coincide with Miss
Meade's statement that she was sup
porting me. This was that while she
was miserly with regard to herself she
was liberal with regard to me. I had
all the expensive clothing I wished
and was never denied anything needed
or coveted. I was educated at the best
schools and at sixteen was sent to a
finishing school. One thing Miss
Meade positively forbade I was not.
allowed to visit any of my schoolmates.
The day before I was eighteen years
old Mr. Cheatham called to see Miss
Meade, and they had a discussion,
which, judging from their earnestness,
must have been a very important one.
I heard Mr. Cheatham say, "If you'll
leave it to me I can bring it out all
right without any great risk; if you
manage it as you propose you'll wreck
yourself and me too."
The words made no Impression on
me at the time, for I supposed they re
ferred to some private matter between
the lawyer and Miss Meade that did
not concern me. Afterward I thought
a great deal about them. When I came
of age. and especially after this inter
view, I noticed that Miss Meade was
very much absorbed about something
and appeared worried. To be worried
was unusual with ber, she being one
of the most composed persons I ever
met
r.I was now old enough to wonder
where the money that was spent on
me and I was spending came from. 1
put a few leading questions to Miss
Meade, which she parried. I began to
think there was some mystery in our
relations, but was not prepared to in
sist on knowing anything she did not
tell me of her own free will. Having
been brought np with the idea that 1
owed everything to her, I did not care
to risk "killing the goose that laid the
golden egg."
One day when she was not at home
I wished for something from the store
room. She always kept the room lock
ed, and no one knew where the key
was except herself. In a box contain
ing metal odds and ends was a bunch
of keys. I tried them one by one till
I found one that would unlock the
door I wished to pass. Protruding
from a desk was a paper, which 1 pos
sessed myself of. and found it to be a
letter written by my father to my
mother before they were married de
claring that he had given her up. since
he was poor- and she possessed a
princely fortune.
This was astonishing news to me.
How could it be that I was dependent
upon one who had been my mother's
household manager and must have aft
er my father's death taken a part in
the management of his affairs. I be
gan to surmise an explanation. I had
not heard either that my mother had
been rich or had lost her property. It
looked to me that the money I was
spending must be derived from that
fortune my father referred to. The
more I thought about the matter the
further I went in my inferences till I
began to suspect that Miss Meade had
taken advantage of my having fallen
into her hands when a child to get her
clutches on my mother's fortune.
I confess I did not know how to
move in the matter. Had I been a
man it would have beeD easier, but
for a girl not far past eighteen 1 could
see no way of uncovering the mys
tery. Keeping my suspicions from Miss
Meade, I resolved to secure advice
The father of one of my schoolmates
was a lawyer, and through her I se
cured ah Interview with him. He got
all the Information 1 conld give him
about my father and mother and prom
ised to look the matter up. It was not
long before through his daughter he
asked me to call upon him, and when
I did 'so he told me that my mother
bad died leaving a great deal of un
productive property, which was now
yielding a fine Income.
And this was the money on which I
was living and procuring all I wished
for. But what was Miss Meade's ob
ject in telling me that 1 was depend
ent upon ber?
My lawyer cautioned me to conceal
the fact that 1 had this knowledge and
went to work to investigate my prop
erty. He found that for years Miss
Meade, whom my mother had left my
guardian, aided by Cheatham, had
been endeavoring to involve the estate
In debt to ber. In time they would ab
sorb the whole property.
My lawyer put a stop to this and by
threatening criminal proceedings suc
ceeded in recovering the whole of my
fortune..

CATTLE MARKET IS
STRONG AND STEADY
The Portland Union Stock Yards,
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the week have been.
Cattle 1656; calves 977; hogs 2122;
sheep 7000; and horses 2.
The cattle market has heen strong
and steady throughout the week.
Good steers were not plentiful and
buyers had to fill their requirements
from medium grade offerings. Butch
er stock was a feature of the cattle
market.
The h'og market was characterized
by an advance of 40 per cent on the
week and by the arrival of the first
shipment of eastern hogs since early
in January. This is the period of the
year between the closing of the win
ters' feed and the appearance of stub
ble fed hogs, and in consequence the
local has fallen off. There 'are quite
a good many hogs in the country, how
ever, and with plenty of grain for fin
ishing purposes an adequate number
of hogs for the markets needs is
looked for from local territory.
Large offerings of sheep caused a
break in the market 15 cents to 20
cents. The first Mount Adams lambs
arrived Friday and although they sold
at a good price, killers had largely
taken care of their needs in the early
part of the week from a more inferior
quality.
