A CHANCE MEETING BY -THE DUCHESS. (Copyright, 1895, by Irving Bacheller.) (Continued from Wednesiay’s Star.) 1. Downstairs, Lillan has drawn her aunt out—across the road—and on to the espla- nade, without speaking a word. Here, however, in the shade and the privacy, the torrent of her angry fear breaks out. “Aunt Bessie,” bursting on Mrs. Mus- grave like a sfnall volcano, “did you know of this?” “I think fo,” says Mrs. Musgrave, slowly, and as if taking an inward glance at her memory. “I really think so. “You did! You planned it all? You can stand there before me and acknowledge ite “Well, it’s difficult, but I'm doing my very best, my dear; I'm stronger than I thought,” says Aunt Bessie, who is doing her best to subdue an inclination toward inextinguishable laughter. “All your disgraceful maneuvering will be of no use, then,” says Lilian, her eyes flashing. “I shall go home tomorrow. Nothing shall keep me here! I shall go home in the morning.” “The very fact of his being here would——” Somebody has come up to them. A tall young man, with a charming face, that has @ suspicion of humor in it. “Isn't it perfect?” says he, Hghtly. “I made sure I should find you here. It is the one place in the world where to stay in- doors night or day is an Impossibility, 30 “Nothing shall keep me here.” long as one can stay awake.” He turns pointedly to Lilian, who Is gazing out on the moonlit water as though unaware of his presence, yet all the time she is won- dering if he had heard her last words. Surely not; his marter is free from embar- rassment, not an arriere pensee in it. “Your first visit, Miss Blake?" “Yes, her first!’ says Aunt Bessle, hur- riedly, who feels a storm brewing. “First impressions are always best,” says Lansdale, whose lips twitch humorously. ‘You will stay for some time?” “For a week,” says Aunt Bessie, prompt- ly, for which speech the girl could willingly have killed her. To go tomorrow after that would be impossible. It would look like running away from him. No, whatever it may cost her, she will remain; she will be even friendly with hi: she will let him see that his belng here is a matter of the most perfect indifference to her, and just at the very end she will say something, just a mere word or two, and quite polite. That will will let him know how distinctly displeasing he is to her, if not, indeed, ab- solutely hateful. It is in accordance ‘vith this resolution that rext morning she meets his proposal to go out boating with him in an amiable, if distinctly careless, fashion. The fact that she adores boating, that Aunt Bessie wouldn't go with her, and that a boatman is generally a bore, has perhaps something to do with her going, but she herself puts it down to the “resolution.” And for three days she goes out boating with him, always with the same self-contained, cold, indiffer- ent air, speaking to him as little as pos- sible, and giving him to understand silently that, though she acknowledges the cous ship between them, he himself is of no a count at all. And Larsdale, who had b: gun by being amused, has grown curio and perhaps a little resentful. Today, Thursday, and the fourth of the!r acquaintance, has’ opened with a warm, faint, driving mist, that les like a soft cloud on the brows of Hungry Hill and the Sugar Loaf, wrapping them in a garment of purple haze. It is not sufficiently wet, however, to keep any one at home, and in the morning ian had acceded to Lans- dale’s request that they should take an- other look at Cromwell's bridge, and had from that wandered on into the lovely woods almost within reach of Lord Ban- try’s shooting lodge. They had, of Course, seen it all before, and it was Eke a fare- well visit, as, of course, tomorrow will be their last day—Aunt Bessie having decided on returning home on Saturday. Always somewhat taciturn when with him, Lilian had been singularly so this morning, and it 1s with a sort of dogged pertinacity that Lansdale asks her at the hotel door on their return if she is too tired to go out for a row. A good deal to his astonishment, she acquiesces at once, and Geoffrey, hav- ing secured a very satisfactory luncheon made up in a dainty basket, they start. But here as on land Lillan’s reserve con- tinues. “Why the deuce does sne come if she can’t stand me?" says Lansdale to him- self, with pardonable irritation, and, fall- ing into her mood, he, too, refrains from speech, until the sound of the oars and the musical dashing of the water against the sides of the many islands by which they go, is all that breaks their silence. They land at Garnish Island, and go up to see the Martello tower, an old man with the keys following them. And perhaps it adds to Lansdale’s sense of injustice that Lilian talks gayly to this old ancient, “Let's have it out.” laughing her soft, musical laugh, and going into ecstasies with him, over the magni- flcent view below. She had hitherto seem- ed unsympathetic to Lansdale, who has fallen in lova with Glengariff, but now he knows how full and deep is her appre- clation of it. And, indeed, the living ture that les before them could hardly be surpassed—the soft, clear bay, with its blue waters rippling round its many islets, the lovely weeds growing to the water's edge, the grand old mountains, severe, mysterious, clad with their purple heather, and the glimpse of Glengariff Castle amidst the foliage. Everything seems so old, so still, that it seems a relief when, from a little rock crowded with sleepy gulls that have seemed for the last five minut of it, the gray birds suddenly ris with one consent and float awa visions across the dark bosom of the w hall we row once mora to Proud river?” says Lansdale, when they are again In the boat. “Yes; it is very pretty there,” says Lilian, with enthusiasm. es ter have some wa: luncheon on our I think I should like something to eat,” says Lilian, absently. Geoffrey could have shaken her. “Look here,” says h down his cars. They have finished lunch- eon and Lilian ts amusing herself throwing the scraps to the big white swan, who always follows them in their excursions, with a view, no doubt, to luncheon on his own part. “Let's have it out.” “Have what out?” She has reddened, paver “Well, all this absurd nonsense. You thought I came here in an underhand sort of way to see you—to ‘boldly’ judge of you? “Mr. Lansdale!” presently, laying h “You did think that.” There is a touch of sternness in his voice that angers her. “Well, it looked very like it,” says she, defiantly. “Come to that, why should I not have thought that you had come here to see, to jndge of me?” Miss Blake frowns. “That Is a rude speech?’ says she, coldly. “Do you wish to have a monopoly of the rudeness then? However, I merely made that remark to give you the chance of see- ing how things might look from the other point of view.” “You will take it back, however,” with @ touch of hauteur. “Certainly I congider it quite as unlikely that you should act in that way as that’— deliberately—“I should. Besides, to set your mind quite at rest, I may as well tell you that I came here principally to meet, not you,” with a slight smile that is a lit- tle ironical, “but a friend of mine, who ‘says Lillan, indifferently. “She seldom is,” with a shrug. ‘“How- had a line to say she will be “Oh! avail her to hide the distinct start of sur- All her self-possession does not prise that follows on his words. “I dare say you have heard of he goes on Lansdale. “Letty Linton—she ts a distant cousin of mine, and I suppose of yours, too.”” “fT don’t think so,” coldly. “Miss Tin- ton? Yes. I believe Aunt Bessie has met her in England. A tall girl, and’—slight hesitation—‘‘good looking?” “More than that.” “Pretty?” 4 “Lovely says Lansdale, with enthu- s'asm. Silence. Miss Blake has gone back to the feeding of the attendant swan, and Gceffrey seems filled with agreeable thoughts. e (To be continued on Friday.) —__—_+-e+—___—_ RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER. Secietary Herbert's Address at the New Government Park. . At the exercises last night at the Chicka- mauga Park Secretary of the Navy Her- bert spoke, in part, as follows: “Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens: This gathering, considering the antecedents and the present purposes of those who compose this audience, has no parallel in history save in our own country. I am glad to take part in it, and glad of the opportunity to say a few words in commemoration of the heroism displayeil by our countrymen in the mightiest, the bloodiest, the most heroic struggle that ever was recorded in the book of time; a war that solved ques- tions that could be solved in no other way, @ war that brought peace—enduring peace —between hostile sections; a war that set- tled firmly the foundations upon which rests the greatest among the governments of man. The verdict of our civil war has been accepted as absolutely final. “Our government has done and ts doing what no other government has ever at- tempted or countenanced. We have pub- ished fully and fairly the official records of both armies during a civil war, and we are now publishing a complete record of both the Union and confederate navies. We conceal nothing on either side from the world, from ourselves or our posterity. And the soldiers of the two armies are fraternizing as soldiers who had fought each other never fraternized before. We do not forget to mourn our comrades who fell, but meet here to do honor to their memory; w2 also contemplate with a pa- triotic pleasure and pride that knows no bounds the splendid exhibitions of Ameri- can manhood that lit up every battlefield of the civil war with a halo of glory. “The soldiers of every state, from Maine to ‘fexas, from Oregon to Florida, won for themselves renown that will endure while history survives. The common opinion ip the south was, in 1800, that the Yankee had degenerated into a dollar hunter, and that he would not fight. Jn the north the bellef obtained that slavery had enervated the southerner till he had become a brag- gart and a coward. Political fury and tonal hate had destroyed mutual respect, the necessary foundation of fraternal fee ing. How quickiy all that was changed! The change began at the front. I remem- ber that from the battle of Fredericksburg, in December, 1862, till the battle of Chan- cellorsville, in May, 1863, the army of the Potomac lay opposite Fredericksburg, on the north bank of the Rappahannock, stretching for miles up and down the Stream. Opposite it, on the south bank, was the army of northern Virginia. Both armies picketed close up to the banks of the stream, which was scarcely a hundred yards wide. In all these months there was ro picket firing. There was a tacit under- standing that there should not be. better spirit animated in 1868 the sol- Giers whe two years before had for each other nothmg but hate. Month after month, as the years rolled away and as battle after battle was fought, the respect and admiration of the two armies for each other increased. During the thirty years that have elapsed since Grant refused to take the sword of Lee at Appomattox, as we Rave looked back at the past that ad- miration and respect has continued to in- crease. as we have looked around at the present we have come to confide in and rely upon each other, and here we are to- day, all met as brothers to do honor to the vallant hosts that fought at Missionary Ridge and Chickamauga.” Army of the Cumberland. It is doubtful if P. T. Barnum in his palmiest days ever saw such a crowd at his circus as assembled beneath one of his old three-ring tents in Chattanooga last night. Barnum used to claim that it seat- ed 15,000 people. If he told the truth, there must have been a greater number in it last night, for the space used for circus performers Was occupied by auditors, The oceasion for this great gathering was the revnion of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland. A large number of veterans belénging to the Society of the Army of the Tennessee, who came from Cincinnati, were present’ as guests. The veteran Gen. J. D. Morgan of Quincy, TIL, vice president of the society, and who is now past eighty years of age, presided in the absence of Gen. Rosecrans, the president. When the meeting had been called to or- der, Gen. Morgan introduced Mayor Ochs, who mado the address of welcome. Ke- sponse was made by Gen. H. V. Boynton, secretary of the association. Following Gen. Boynton, Gen. Morgan made’an address of welcome to the con- federate \eterans, after which Senator Charies Manderson of Nebraska delivered the annual address to the society. ‘The Orion Glee Club sang a song, when Scnator Manderson had finished. and Mr. Hilary A. Herbert, Secretary of the Navy, was introduced. As the secretary caine forward he was greeted with loud ap- plause. ; Lieut, Gen. Schofield, Gen. Daniel But- terfield and Gen. Horace Porter each in turn made a brief talk when Secretary Fierbert had finished. The meeting then adjourned. —_ ——— How He Took a Prisoner. From the Louisville Courler-Journal. A Vermont veteran tells a good etory of the fight of Burkittsville, Va., just before the battle of Sharpsburg: ‘The confeder- ates, overpowered, fell back up the hill, firing upon men from behind rocks and the natural defensive positions presented by the ground until they reached their artillery, where they made a more decided stand. Their riflemen took advantage of every possible cover of ledge and rock and tree. When Slocum’s division had become actively engaged Brooks’ and Irvine's bri- gades of Smith’s division were sent for- ward and bore a part of the final struggle. 's brigade was held in reserve. er a sharp action of three hours the crest was carried and 490 prisoners, 760 stand of arms, one piece of artillery and three colors were the prize} of the Union army. Our loss was 113 killed, 418 wound- ed and two missing. While climbing over a ledge I slipped and feil elghteen or twenty feet between two rocks. Rapid as had been my tumble I found myself pre- ceded by a confederate soldier. For an instant we glared angrily at each other, when the ‘reb’ burst out laughing, saying: We're both in a fix. You can’t gobble me, and I can't gobble you till we know which is going to lick. Let's walt until the shooting is over, and if your side wins I'm your prisoner, and if we win you are my prisoner.’ The bargain was made, but didn't that reb feel cheap when he found I'd won him?’ eee = Getting There by Degrees.

Steubenville Dispatch to Ohio State Journal. If ever a man bore a charmed life Nathan Porter of Cross Creek township is that man. He has met with a number of acci- dents that would have ended the life of any ordinary human being, but Nate seems pos- sessed of as many lives as a cat. He is just now going about after having been kicked squarely in the forehead by a horse. His apple orchard is on the side of a hill, and he has fallen out of nearly every tree on it several times and never was more than shaken up. Some years azo a log rolled over him as if he had been made of rubber. Then he went to a picnic and ate ice cream that po!soned everybody else, but beyond a little sick spell he never felt any discom- fort. Several years ago his physician told him to settle up his business affairs and prepare for the hereafter, as he might live two years and he might not live more than two days.

Durrant’s movements in Emmanuel Bap- tist Church were described to the jury at San Francisco yesterday by the prosecu- tion as he appeared after his alleged trav- els from the Normal School on the after- noon of April 3. From the time he entered the church, bout 4:30, it is the claim of the prosecu- tion that he was occupied until 5 o'clock in perpetrating the murder. At 5 he was seen in the church by another witness, George R. King, the church organist, who occupied the stand all of yesterday. The murderer of Blanche Lamont, after having killed her, locked the door to the belfry, broke the lock and took the knobs off the door and threw them under the bel- fry door. It was then necessary for him to cross a space above the ceiling to a rear garret of the church,from which there was a passage down to the basement. It was -lown this rear pessage that Dur- rant came when he burst on King’s view. He stopped in a space between partly opened folding doors when he saw King sitting at a piano in a corner and when King asked him what was the matter he aid not at once reply. When he did reply it was to explain that he had been fixing a sun burner above the ceiling and that he had been overcome by escaping gas. Durrant’s appearance was so startling that King ran to a drug store a block and a half distant at his suggestion, to get him a stimulant. Upon first cntering the church King had detected the odor of escaping gas, the only thing in his testimony faverable to Dur- rant, and this led him to enter the closet used for a library where the body of Min- nie Williams, was afterward found. At that time he did not see Durrant’s coat and hat in the room adjoining the closet, but after his return he entered the room with Durrant and the latter’s coat and hat were then lying on a box. The door to this room was usually lock- ed, but when King arrived at the chureh he found the door open. Oniy Durrant and King bad keys to it. Miss Lucille Turner was on the stand for a few minutes to say that she was not in the church on the day of the murder. Her testimony was to clear up a point left in doub* by Mrs. Leak, who had testified that from her front window she had seen Durrant enter the church with a young lady she said looked like elther Blanche Lamont or Miss Turner. The case went over till Friday on ac- count of the Jewish holiday today, to ac- commodate two of the jurors. The prosecution will complete its direct case early next week. The opening state- ment of the defense is waited with much interest. It will be the first intimation of what :t expects to prove. It has been said that an alibi for Durrant would be shown, and, further, that another man than Dur- rant went Into the church when the pris- oner fs said to have entered it. see Unfortunate Misapprehension.
