The Story Told Anew.
In the dust and down a lane
Two walked hand in hand together;
Blew the wind and fell the rain,
Little heeded they the weather,
Cold March winds might storm about,
Warmth within mocked cold without.
Had the road been paved with gold,
They had never seen a shimmer;
Had" the stars left Heaven's high fold,
Night to them had grown no dimmer,
Karth, unto its widest hem,
Consisted of four feet for them.

it certainly was an odd looking con
veyance that had entered the gates and
was now slowly coming up the drive to
ward tho house; A large draught horse,
harnessed to a dust covered buggy, whoso
strained foreaxle, bent by the hist mile
of heavy road, lied slanted the tops of
the forewheels toward each other at an
alarming angle. The light, graceful
dress and elegant parasol of the young
girl who occupied half of its single seat
looked ludicrously pronounced by the
side of the slouching figure and grimy
duster of the driver, who occupied the
other half.
Mrs. Randolph gave a gritty laugh. "1

fashien, on the yxvd';"
“That's her hired driver, no doubt.
Hang it! she can't drive hare by her
self," retorted the major, impatiently,
hurrying to the door and down the stair
case. But he was instantly followed by
his wife. She had no id n o." permitting
a possible understanding to b e exchanged
ia their first greeting. The late J!.
L'Hommadieu had been an:e to imo.trt
a whole plan of intrigue in U single word
cad glance.
Hancilv Rose Aiallorv. already in tho
b»U, in a few words detailed tho acci
dent that liad befallen her to tho hon
est sympathy of tho major and tho cold-
Jy polite concern of Mr-. Randolph, who
In deliberately chosen sentences man
aged to convey to tho young girl the
conviction that accidents of any kind to
young ladies were to be regarded as
URly a shade removed from indiscre
tions. Roso was impressed and even
flattered by tho fastidiousness' of this
foreign appearing woman, and after the
fashion of youthful natures accorded to
her the respect due to recognized au
thority. When to this authority, which
was evident, she added a depreciation of
the major, I fear that some common in
stinct of fotuinino tyranny responded in
Rose’s heart, and that on tho very thresh
old of tho honest soldier's home she tac
itly agreed with tho wife to look down
upon him. Mrs. Randolph departed to
inform her son and daughter of their
guest’s arrival. As a matter of fact,
however, they had already observed her
approach to tho honse through the slits
uf their drawn window blinds and those
even narrower prejudices and limited
comprehensions which their education
hud fostered. The girt, Adele, had only
grasped tho fact that Roso had come to
their honso in fine clothes, alone with
a man in a broken down vohielo, and was
j moved to easy mirth and righteous won
der. The young rum, Emile, had agreed
with her, with tho mental reservation
that tho guest was pretty and must
eventually fall in love with him. They
both, however, welcomed her with a
trained politeness and a superficial atten
tion that, while the indifference of her
j own countrymen ia the wheat field was
! still fresh in her raeollccticu, struck her
with grateful contrast. Tho major's
quiet end unobtrusive kindliness natur
ally made less iniprensicn, or waa ac
cepted ;.s a matter of. cotuvo.
“Welb" said the major, cheerfully but
tentatively, to Ilia wife, when they were
! alone again, “she seems a nice girl, after
' all. And a good deal of pluck and char-
! acter, by Jove, to push on in that broken
Ur wai liutantly followed by his He.
The rancho of Maj. Randolph lay on a
rich falda of the coast range and over
looked the great wheat plains that the
young girl had jnst left. A house of
wood and adobe, buried to its first story
in rose trees and passion vinos, was
large and commodious. • Yet it con
tained only the major, Ids wife, her sou
anil daughter and the few occasional
visitors from San Francisco whom ho
entertained and she tolerated.
For the major's household was not
entirely harmonious. While a young
infantry subaltern at a gulf station he
||.vi been attracted by the piquant for
eign accent and dramatic gesturc.i of a
French creole widow, and—believing

passion more than an offset to the en

with the memory of various marital in
fidelities, were all hap lata husband had
t'-R luif-rrhod proposed, been accepted
And promptly married to her. Before
ho had obtained Us captaincy she had
partly lost her accent, and those dramatic
gestures which had accented tho passion
of their brief conrtsUp began to inten
sify domestic altercation and the bursts

ing herself on her second husband
for the faults of the first is not
known, but it mas certain that she
brought an unhallowed knowledge of
the weakneueo, cheap cynicism and
vanity of a foreign prSaeoaesor, to sit in
judgment upon the simple minded and
chivalrous American soldier who had
IHPCpeded him, and who was (fi fact thS
most Joyoi pf husbands. The natural re-
,uR pf her skepticism was an espionage
and criticism of tho wives of the major's
brother officers that compelled a fre
quent change of quarters. When to this
was finally added a racial divergence w vuau v:j lu ,, „„.^ u

Blie opened her window and looked
out. The moon, a great silver dome,
was uplifting itself from a bluish gray
! level which she knew was the distant
plain of wheat. Somewhere in its midst
appeared a dull star, at times brighten
ing as if blown upon or drava upward
In a comet like trail. By some odd in
stinct she felt that it was tho solitary
forge of the young inventor, and pictured
liim standing before it with his ab
stracted hazel eyes and a face more be
grimed in tho moonlight than ever.
When did ho wash himself? Perhaps
not nntil Sunday. How lonely it must
bo out there! She slightly shivered and
turned from the window. As she did
so it seemed to her tliat something
knocked against her door from without.
Opening it quickly she was almost cer
tain that the sound of a rustling skirt re-
1 treated along the passage. It was very
late—perhaps she hail disturbed the
house by shutting her window. No
doubt it was the motherly interest of
Mrs. Randolph that impelled her to
softly come and look after her. And for
once her simple surmises were correct.
For not only the inspecting eyes of her
hostess, but tho amatory glances of the
youthful Emiio had been fastened upon
her window nntil tho light disappeared,
and even tho Holy Mission Church of
Ban Joso had assured itself of tho dear
child's safety with a large and supple
car at her keyhole.
The next morning Maj. Randolph took
her with Adele in a light cariolo over
the ranch. Although his domain was
nearly as large as tho adjoining wheat
plain, it was not liko that monopolized
by one enormous characteristic yield,
but embraced a more diversified prod
uct. There were acres and acres of po
tatoes, in rows of endless and varying
succession. There were miles of wild
oats and barley, which overtopped them
ns they drove in narrow lanes of dry
and dusty monotony. There were or
chards tif pears, apricots, poaches and
nectarines, and vineyards of grapes so
comparatively dwarfed in height that
they scarcely reached to the level of their
eyes, yet laden and breaking beneath
the weight of their ludicrously dispropor
tionate fruit. What seemed to bo a vast
green plateau covered with tiny patches,
that headed the northern edge of the
prospect, was an enormous bed of straw
berry plants. But everywhere, crossing
the track, bounding the fields, orchards
and vineyards, intersecting the paths of
the whole domain, were narrow irrigat
ing ducts and channels of running water.
“Those," said the major poetically,
"are the veins and arteries of the ranch.
Come with mo now and Til show } on
its pulsating heart," Ooaoendiag from
the wagon into pedestrian prose again
ho led Rose a hundred yards further to
a shed that covered a wonderful artesian
well. In the center of a basin a column
of water rose regularly with tho even
flow and vdlume of a brook. “It is one
of thef largest in tho state,” said tho
major, “and is the life of all that grows
i here during six months of tho year."
Pleased as the young girl was with
these evidences of the prosperity and
position of her host, she waa St rook,
however, with tho fast that the farm
| laborers, vino growers, nursery men and
all field hands scattered on the vast
estate were apparently of tho same inde
pendent, unpastond and unprofessional
| character as the men of the wheat field.
There were no cottages or farm build
ings that she could see, nor any appar
ent connection between the household
and the estate, Far from suggesting
tenantry or Retainers, the men who wore
working in tho fields glanced at them
money to work it, and doesn’t ride
around in a buggy with a conple of
charmingly distracting young ladies.”
And do they all i nure alike?*’ con
tinued Rose, Ignoring the pleasantry;
“big and little—tliat young inventor
with tho rest?”
She stopped. Sue felt tho ingenue's
usually complacent eyes suddenly fixed
upon her with an unhallowed precocity
and as quickly withdrawn. Without
knowing why, she felt embarrassed and
changed tlie subject.
The next day they drove to the Con
vent of Santa Clara and the mission
college of San Jose. Their welcome at
both places seemed to Roso to bo a
mingling of caste greeting and spiritual
zeal, and tho austere seclusion and re
serve of those cloisters repeated that
suggestion of an old world civilization
that had already fascinated the young
western girl. They made other excur
sions in the vicinity, but did not extend
it to a visit to their few nc-ighliors.
With their reserved and exclusive ideas
this fact did not strike Rose as peculiar,
but on a later shopping expedition to
the town of Ban Jose a certain reticence
and aggressive sensitiveness on the part
of the shop keepers and tradespeople just win
toward tho Randolphs produced an un- (inirors '
pleasant impression on lier mind. She "
could not help noticing, too, that after
the first store of astonishment which
greeted her appearance with her hostess
she herself was included in the antagon
ism. With her youthful prepossession
for her friends, this distinction sljo rc-
mto a statute of Alexander,
"with a city in the rijfht hand
and a reservoir in the left.”

he concluded with n triumphant chuckle.
“He's as likely to lose his hundred
thousand to-morrow while his manners
will remain,” said Mrs. Randolph. “I’vo
uo faith in thoao sudden California fort-
uucr,!"
“You're wrong us regards Mallory,
| for he’s as careful tm ho is lucky, lie
don't throw money away for appear
ance, sake cr he’d have a rich homo for
that daughter. He could afford it.”
Mrs. Randolph was talent. “She is
, his only daughter. I believe,” she con
tinued presently.
i “Yes; ho has no other kith or kin,”re
turned tho major.
“Sho seems to be very much impressed
by Emile,” said Mr*. Randolph.
Major Randolph faced his wife qnick-
I ly. “In tho name of all that’s ridicu-1
Ions, my dear, you are not already
| thinking ot" he gasped.
“I should be very loth to give my
sanction to anything of the kind, know
ing t he difference of her birth, education
and religion, although the latter,I believe,
she would readily change,” said Mre.Kan-
■ dolpli severely. “But when you speak
! of my already thinking of 'such thiligs,' I
do you suppose, that your friend Mr. |
I Mallory didn't consider all that when he
i sept that girl here?"
“Never,” said Ute major vehemently; (
“and if it entered his head now, by
Jove be'd take her away to-morrow—al- I
ways supposing I didn’t anticipate him
; by sending her off myself."
Mrs. Randolph uttered her mirthless
i laugh. “And you suppose the girl would \
go? Really, major, yon don't seem to
! understand this boasted liberty of your
, own countrywomen. What does site i
care for her father's control? Why,
she’d make him do just what she wanted.
But," sho added with an expression of
dignity, “perhaps wo had better not
discuss this until wo know something |
i of Emile's feelings in tho matter. That
! is the only question that concerns us.’ 1
With this she swept out of tho room,
leaving tho major at first speechless with
honest indignation, and then, after the
fashion of all guileless natures, a little
uneasy and suspicious of his owq guilo-
icssness. For a day or two after ho
found himself, not without a sensation
of meanness, watching Rose when in
Emile’s presence, but be could distin
guish nothing more i han the frank satis
down and don’t caro whether
he lives or dies; he found new
strength, good appetite and felt
just like he had a new lease on
life. Only 50c. a bottle, at
