My Lord and Iiis Daughter By CONSTANCE TYLER Copyright, 1*01, by T. C. McClure ? Mr. Thomua Hope of Chelmsford was not. only the proprietor of Hope'o bank, the owner of three or four factories .and the) recognised bus in esa head of the town, Jb?ut be waa president of three or four societies and charities and of high standing as a church member. .Whatever Mr. Thomas Hope aald or did w^Bj always the correct' thing. He .and hip wife could'have existed with out Chelmsford, but had they departed for other climes that town would have died-socially. It happened that Mr. Hope had to make a trip to Parla In Ananda! In terests. He spoke to no one ou bia way over. Several strangers dropped re marks to which he could have replied consistently, but he held himself aloof with true British reserve. When Brit ish reserve har money behind it, lt la a ?tone wall. Mr. Hope might have re plied to an earl or a lord had such a personage addressed him and had he been certain that there waa no Imposi tion. Tlie banker shuddered as he look ed over the common traveleis. Mr. Hope waa not Impressed with Paris. He had been there' before. It twas his duty to Impress Paris Instead, and when he departed, after a stay of three or four days, he felt sure that be bad done so and was very complacent over lt. . This self complacency serv ed to a certain extent to thaw out his reserve. That la, he deigned to show himself among his fellow passengers on the boat instead of locking himself up in his stateroom, but at the same time he let lt be seen that his dignity was not io be trifled -with. Suddenly something happened to the great man. A good looking young wo man approached him and, addressing bim as "My lord," asked the privilege of speech. Never before in his life had lie been addressed by a young woman -a strange young woman. His dignity iwould have received a fatal shock bad she not used the prefix. His flattered .vanity offset the shock. His wife bad several times averred that he looked like au earl, and now here was living proof that she was right. He put up bia eyeglass and gave the young wo man a critical glance and Indicated by a cold bow that she might proceed. She had a story to tell. She was an English governess who bad passed the last three years in &> Parisian family. As she bad great property expecta tions the family wanted her io marry one of the sons. Because she would net-because she had said that os an GSngliDh girl she would not marry an enemy pf ber country-she had been charged with purloining certain articles of jewelry an 1 driven from the house. The incensed family might even seek lier arrest. It was a pathetic story, with many embellishments, and Mr. Hope's heart was touched-his British heart. It .wasn't touched because the young wo man was good looking, but because she had continually addressed him as "My lord" and had appealed to bim as the British lion itself. She wanted bia protection while landing. That, French family might have set the minions of law at work and she might be arrested and haled back to Paris and thrust Into a dungeon for years without trial. Under the protection of "My lord," rwhnt officer of the law would dare lock twice at her? If they looked many times it would mean war between the two countries. Thomas Hopo listened, was flattered, and his .Iron bound dignity became as putty. For the first time In twenty years he had some human feeling about Mm. He cam? out of his shell and dis covered that there were joints In his backbone. Had that young woman made the mistake of appealing to him as i4Mr." or even as "Viscount" her petition would have been ignored, bat that little trick vof ?'My lord" worked like a miracle. She should land under - als protection, and if interfered with grim war and ali its horrors would burst on the country within two hours. Thanking bim over and over again sud [with tears in her eyes as she repeated, her thanks, the young woman returned to her stateroom and made some tri fling changes in her attire. Shortly aft erward the boat reached Its dock on the English aldo of the channel. Mr, Hope was ' ready to rise to the occasion, and th) girl walked ashore leaning on his arm. Ho had a cane In ?tye other hand, bis monocle In his eye, and he walked erect. He was the Brit ish empire! A While the baggage was bel?g Inspect ed there was a delay-that ls, others .were delayed. Aa for. Mr. Hope ana tiie young woman hanging oh his arm, they walked np to & customs Inspector/ 'A card was produced and thrust Into his hand, along with a Bank of. E?g land not?, and there was no Inspection cf the woman's four trunks. It never occurred to "My lord" that a girl flying from enemies would hardly have fpmf great trunks along with her. He saw them loaded into a van which was sus piciously convenient and was about to hand bia protegee Into a cab and re sume bis interrupted dignity when they ?were approached by a common looking British subject with what looked like a; tvnTa-t ?r. hU hna?. "Excuse me, please"-ha had bt?gun ^nen Ur. f?op? Interrupted him with: "Slr, are you addressing mo?' "x"-ye?/,air. I have here A warrant tor the arrest or "A warrant, tlrf* "tes, stir.

V - "But may I ask. slr"- persisted the Jffl?er he uodded bis head toward tho young woman. "Yen, may, air," replied Mr. Hope. J'Slng to tho occasion. -''This young 'adv jg jnvAl?ucmer, sir':" '"Then T beg a thousand pardons-a thousand pardons, slr," said the abash ed officer. Th? cab drove oS. Sir. Hope ra ia eu j bia hat In answer to the smile and tho "God bless you," and he never, never again saw the distressed English gov erness who had been obliged to flee from the enemies of ber country. He resumed his dignity and boarded a train for home, and to make up for having temporarily thawed out he greet*'J Mrs. Hope with a grant aa he arri voa. Three days later a man who would not be denied had an interview with him ia bt? private sanctum at the bank. The great Mr. Hopo met bim with a glare and a frown and began to road bim a lesion on his impudence in interrupting business men when they were engaged In financiering the gov ernment of Great Britain. But at the end of a very brief quarter of an hour the banker waa a much humbled man. He {earned that he had BBS lated a noted character to escape with ?our trunks full of plunder from a daring Paris robbery and that he had lied to do lt. Not only did the breath of scan dal menace his name, but the law was after htm in several directions. Even being Mr. Hope of Chelmsford would not save him. Mr. Hope had to go up to London, accompanied by his solicitors. He had to tell his story to police officials and others and submit to criticism. He had to advertise a reward for the cap ture of the young woman, and he had to sign statements anti affidavits until he was tired of them. Being the '?vent Mr. Hope he managed to get his neck out of the. noose after much bother, but the authorities did not succeed in arresting his "daughter." Answering the Emperor. The following story of Kaiser Wil liam II. and one of his generals is told by a biographer of the German emper or: At a review in Berlin the kaiser im patiently reprimanded old General von Keerschsldt for losing his wits at a critical moment. "'f your majesty thinks I am getting too old; I beg of you to allow me to re sign." "No, no," replied the emperor. "You are too young to resign Indeed if your blood didn't course turough your veins quite BO fast you would be a more useful army leader." On the evening of that day the kaiser and the general met at a court ball. The general was talking to some young ladies. "/vb, M* ra chela t," cried the emper or, "that Li right. Get ready to marry. Take a young wife, then that excit able temperament of yours will soon vanish." Thc general bowed low as he re torted: ? "I beg to be excused, your majesty. A young emperor and a young wife would be more than I could possibly stand." W!tr tia Bea? Fought. C. M. Bussell, the western painter, tells an amusing story of a bear fight which he thinks ls funnier than any humorous sketch he hos ever seen por trayed on a vaudeville stage. He had been out with a guide all day, and to ward evening they saw far down the road two bears sauntering along quite oblivious' of the presence of human be ings, as the wind was in the wrong di rection. Russell and his guide quickly Jumped behind va small thicket, and when the bears were within shooting distance the painter let fly and struck one of them fair In the side. The shot stunned the animal for a moment, and he was under the impression that, his mate had struck him a terrific blow when he was not looking. As there appeared to be no reason for this chas tisement, he proceeded to retaliate by attacking the other bear. About this time the guide took a shot at the as saulted animal, with the result that the brute was infuriated and imagined he had been struck with undue force by bis comrade. Upon this the two bears set to and had a terrific fight. Success Magazine. A Clo?? Baronin. The reputation held by Mr. Cobb of Cunby fer making the closest bargains bf any man in the region was sus tained during tho summer by his deal ings with several of his neighbors from thc city. , "Mr. Cobb," said one of these neigh bors whose orchard was in need of. pruning, "the man says he must have a longer ladder than mine, for when he's unlined the orchard I want hun to trim that scraggly elm just this side of the apple trees. Have you a ladder I could hire?" "Om-m, weH I s'pose,! nev," said Mr. Cobb grudgingly as he turned his lean face half away from his visitor's gase. "I've got one, but ifs kind of loose j'in ted toward the top. I'm not cal'latin' to put any repairs cn to lt, for I don't ever go clear to the top myself.

Whales are captured lu nets by the Japanese. The whulers put off from the shore as quietly as possible, and when they come within the proper dis tance of their objective the boats, which bavr hitherto worked In couples, separate and, dropping their nets as they go, work around to the rear and flanks of their expected kill. The nets are made in large squares, eu cb aide being about forty feet long. One net is composed of six squares iu Hue, and the squares are fastened to each other lightly. When all is ready the boats which have been worked around to the rear of the whale then 4gni menee to drive him gently toward tl?l* nets. Mov ing along lazily at first, the whale soon realizes that something untoward is happening and, hurrying forward, dashes on to one of the nets. This is the critical moment, and when the fisher men see that the whale ls well in the center of one of the squares they raise a great shout and charge in upon him. When the whale is about spent u mun chosen for his strength, activity, pluck, coolness and general fitness for his work then leaps upon bis back aud with a great triangular sbuped knife proceeds to cut two great gashes in his body just back o? his bead. Through the underlying blubber and these two gashes he passes a rope and, knotting it, makes a loop of it. He then repeats the same operation ns fur back on bis body as he cun. When the fight has been completely -knocked out of the whale, bouts range alongside of him, and by the help of the loops already mentioned the hapless cetucean is slung between them in such u manner as to minimize the danger of his car cass sinking. Then the boats form in procession, and, making for the shore, there com mences the most curious part of the whole affair. The whalers,, with real fervor and !n thc mest solemn manner possible, begin a chanting prayer for the ease of the departing spirit by call ing out "Joraku! J? raku! Joraku!" lu low, deep tones, IVon the third day after the kill a memorial service is held in the village temple, and prayers are offered for the repose of the dead whale's soul.-Chicago News. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. How many men work too hard? How many do you know? Every good husband is henpecked. That's all there ls to lt . Classical music ls like some people very hard to understand. It is said that a farmer gets the best work out of a farm hand who Is aspir ing to be his son-in-law. Perhaps one reason why a poor man lives longer than a rich one ls that the doctors don't take so much Interest In him. When an economical man suffers a ten dollar loss he cuts off expenditures reaching to $50 before he feels right ok?... ll. atvaui IL. If you have faults the idea ls not to humiliate yourself by acknowledging them ta your enemies, but to get over them if possible for your own good. -Aten ison Globe. Lcsplsg Treason. King William III. of England was passionately fond of the chase and made lt a point never to be outdone In any leap, however perilous. A Mr. Cherry, who was devoted to the exiled family, took advantage of this to plan the most pardonable design which was ever formed against a king's life. He regularly joined the royal hounds, put himself foremost and took the most desperate leaps In the hope that Wil liam might break his neck lu following him. One day, however, he accom plished one so imminently dangerous that the king when he came to the spot shook his head and drew back. It ls sn id that Mr. Cherry at length broke bis own neck and thereby relieved the king from further hazard. Rossini's Jealousy. Rossini was Intolerably jealous of all his musical contemporaries and partic ularly of Meyerbeer. In 1830 he heard "The Huguenots," and on listening to the performance from the beginning to the end he made up his mind that Mey erbeer had excelled him and deter mined to write no-more. He lived un til 18C8, but produced nothing for. tho lyric stage. His thirty-two years of .re tirement were spent in the pleasures of a voluptuary. He was particularly fond of good eating and drinking- and as sembled about him the youngest and gayest society he could attract to his. house. * A Rqnraanlan Custom. A strange, custom ls still observed In Roumanla which reminds one Strongly of Robinson Crusoe. When a servant has displeased his or her master the offender takes hts boots in bis hands and places them before the bedroom door of his master.

H?w (t Feels to B* Clutched by This Mar?n* Monster. My first experience of the octopus, writes Frank T. Bullen in "Crea tures of the Sea," was in a little bay in Stewart island. New Zealand. A small river flowed into this bay, not able for its fine flounders, and tho crew of the ship in which I waa then a sailor soon discovered that the easiest way of catching them was to wade about on the fine sandy bed with bare feet., the water teing only up to midthigh, and when*they felt the flat body wriggling under their soles to tread firmly and stoop, grop ing in the sand until they had tho flounder safe between finger and thumb. Then they would raise him and put him in the bag strapped across their shoulders. By and by we discovered that the nearer the sea the finer the floun ders, and so one sunny afternoon I was wading in the bay near tho mouth of the rivulet and picking up some lino specimens. Suddenly I trod upon something like a blob of jelly, tearing a eting, I made to step off, only to feel both my legs gripped in several places by something that clung as if it would eat into the flesh. I stooped and felt a long, whip like tentacle twisted around my right leg. I toro it off and felt a nausea which made me quite giddy. But no sooner had I removed ono snaky thing than another held mo and another and another. The water waa shallow, but I began to feel as if I must be dragged down, drowned and devoured by this horrible thing. fortunately ? retained ?omo pres ence of mind, and, drawing my sheath knife, I reached down cau tiously to where I felt the main body of the thing, and, avoiding my bare feet, I stabbed steadily into the ^ntral part of the beast. I waa suc cessful, for presently I felt the clutch of tho tentacles around my legs relax, I saw the water stained with sepia, and I smelled the odor of stale musk, which all cuttlefish emit when disturbed. I felt quite certain that had I been laid hold of in water out of my depth by one of these creatures only a miracle could have saved me from drowning. The Reserved 8cnt. The train was crowded, with the exception of one seat. This had been refused to various people, tho lady who occupied one-half of it telling every one who tried to sit down that "this seat is reserved." Finally a little girl entered, followed by an elderly woman-her grand mother. The child called her grand mother to take the seat, but the imaginary owner objected, saying as before, "This seat is reserved." The eyes of the child were black, and they lighted up with indignation. She turned on the selfiah woman and said in a voice loud enough to be heard through the car : "I don't care if it ia preserved. It isn't fair to preserve a seat when my grandmother has to stand. Be sides, every one says my grandmoth er is a wonderfully well preserved lady, so she's just going to sit down hereP' And she did, to the enjoy ment of every one in the car save the woman who sat "beside her. Cincinnati Enquirer. A Singular Product of Hawaii. One of the most singular products of Hawaii is a vitreous lava known as 'Tele'B hair." It is a silky, fila mentous substance, olive green or Sel lowish brown in color, soft, but rittle. It has been thought to be produced by the wind catching the fiery spray thrown up from the great crater of Kilauea (which the Hawai ians long since personified aa the fire goddess Pele), but the real cause of the lava forming into such soft, silky fibers is believed to be the gas and steam escaping through tho lava. Nearly all the native birds of Hawaii use it as a nest building ma terial. -! A Queer Blunder. Man}' queer blunders are attribut ed to Marshal MacMahon of France. It is related of him that once when he visited the military school of St. \Cyr he encountered a negro cadet. The color of his skin at once attract ed the worthy marshal, who said, with some surprise : "Vous ?tes n? gre, n'est-ce pas ?" "Oui, M. le Mar? chal." "Ah, tres bien ; continues de ?'etre."

High above Bombay, on the freest and most airy spot of tho city and 300 feet ?hove tne level of the sea, ia situated the most peculiar ceme tery in tho world-the burial placo of the Pnraees. lt is called the Tow er of Silence. These Towers of Silence are found everywhere in Persia, where tho corpse, placed under tho open sky, is dried hy the sun and dissolv ed by the rain. But in Bombay, where the burial place is limited and where death and misery invite vul tures in greatest numbers, the dis solution is considerably hastened by these carrion eaters. The tower itself consiste of a stone wall thirty feet hir?h, forming a circle about 300 foot i!?diameter a roofless tower. Tho floor, made of cement, is an inclined plane, termi nating in a deep and wide well, lt is divided into three concentric circles, within which are standing side by side the low, open sarcophagi. These circles are connected by wide druin gutters, lending to the wall in the center of the building. The men are laid in the outer, the women in the middle and children in the inner cir cle. The whole inner construction re minds one of the inside of a classical amphitheater, only that in this tow er the players-the corpses and tho vultures-occupy the pince of the spectators, while tho center-the arena-is occupied by the wall, fifty feet in diameter. Having entered the iron door leading into the tower, thc khandiua immediately strip the corpae of all clothing, for Zoroaster has said, "Naked thou comest into the world, and naked shalt thou depart there from." Tho body io then placed in one of the vacant sarcophagi. In a few minutes the place is cov ered with vultures, which in the course of an hour devour every ves tige of flesh on the fresh corpse, while the blood finds its way through the drain canals down into the wall. The skeleton only re mains, as smoothly picked as though it had been cleaned in the chambers of an anatomical institution. In a few weeks the burning rays of vthe sun and the heavy rains have dissolved tho skeleton and piece meal worked it down the wall, where the remaining pieces of bones arc further dissolved in a mixture of lime and sulphur, while tho blood and fluids are strained through a heavy layer of coal and sand and enter the undefiled ground of the Parsecs as pure water. It is claimed that this mode of burial is the most cleanly of all methods and, from the standpok.' of hygiene, the most safe. Certainly as it is practiced in the land of its origin, where the forces of nature sun aaa rain-perform the entire operation, it does not appear at all horrible.-Los Angeles Times. Badly Written Letter*. Comedies without number have resulted from badly written letters. Charles Kingsley one night when his wife was desperately ill received a noto from Dean Stanley. He pored long over it. "I have every reason to believe," he said, "that it is n very kind letter of sympathy from Stanley. I am sure it is. Yet the only two words that I can even guess at are 'heartless devil.' " Lord Curzon once hod a lucky es cape because of his wretched writ ing. Sending off two letters, he put them into wrong envelopes and for warded to a relative one which con tained uncomplimentary references to the recipient. He received in re ply a note saying, "Can't read a word of your four pages, bvt guess you want some money, you young ras cal." And in the letter was a bank note. WOFFORD COLLEGE, HENRY N.
