D. WttDER When Miss Mabel Wlllmarth wrote her lover, Edward Auchinkloss, that un tier her parents' orders she must break , With 'him he was very badly cut up. He did not blame Mabel; she was not - much over seventeen years old cer tainly not an age at which a girl is warranted In marrying counter to the express wishes of her parents. Auchinkloss was permitted to call , upon Miss Willniarth to say goodby, i after which he was expected to refrain ; from visits or communication. He ' found her as much averse to breaking I with him a he was to breaking with j her, but he also found her resolute in her determination to obey her mother. I "Father and mother," she said, "have i only me. If I marry you iu opposition ! to their commands a barrier will be i raised between them and me that will I never be removed. Besides, mother ' bas convinced me that couples usually ' grow together, irrespective of any at : tacbments for others either husband i or wife may have had before inar I ringe. We must make the best of the present for the sake of the luture. !You will marry another girl and I will i be nothing to you. I.suppose l suau j "Forget me?" ; "I don't know. It ; doesn't seem to j m? now that I can." i "What you have said has, of course, ome from your mother. It is too wise to be spoken by a girl of seventeen. ;But I confess that it is wise, or seems t to be, and I would not for the world 1 morsiifiil vou to do an unwise thing. rm thins I wish you to tell me: Has ' mot your mother some one in view for you who she ttiinKs win oe awe i" ive you more than l ; wiit do von ask that question?" itj.onCa nnUl verv recently both j Ue and your father seemed to be well 1 aaHsfled vAtb me for a sou-in-law." i ! "Mother especially enjoined mo to leny nothing to yon about auy future i relations between me and any one else. the says that, having broken witn you, you are not supposed to take any fur ther interest ia me. Surely you can not be expected to approve of any man that she I mean I might marry. "RIeht again that is, it your sen tence had been finished as you began Jt. You should have finished 'that she utiight select.' Nevertheless it is evl Ident that some one has been selected Xor you, and naturally I am especially tonxious to know.who tne reiiow is, ! "The fellow ?' I "Well, the gentleman." 1 "Your use of the word shows that mother is right l'ou would naturally Ibe prejudiced against any man I might .marry." . : He tried for ar aour to induce her to tell htm the naiae of her new fiance. 'but, having promised her mother that ehe would answer no questions wir.n regard to her future, she stood firm. IFlnally he asked her if he should write a number of names on a bit of paper to tell him whether the name he wish- j led to know was on the list. Since the knan was a newcomer and she did not believe- Auchinkloss had ever teen or jheard of him, she const-nied. He wrote Itwenty names on the paper and hand ed it to her. She handed It back to him with a request to be released from her agreement , Auchinkloss released Jier and immediately took his depar ture. 1 Several weeks rolled around, and Mies Wlllmarth saw nothing of her discarded lover. She did not even meet him on the street. This was sur prising, because the town in which they lived was small. More weeks pasted with like result His place was not suppliad by the new suitor, be 'itause Mr. and Mrs. Wlllmarth had de I tided that he might not pay their daughter any attention whatever till IBhe had passed her' eighteenth birth- I day. Then the couple might be en- rgaged, but for a year before marriage. Such an arrangement prevented any lme from linking the two names to tgether. l Four months passed between the i 'time Auchinkloss was discarded and Mabel's eighteenth birthday. The lat ter had passed and the engagement ibnd been made, though not announced, when the new appointee was arrested jone day on a charge of giving a check ion a bank where he had no account Other claims against him followed tbe 'brat, and It was not long before pret- ky black record came, to light. The (engagement between him and Mabel (wan broken without any one outside jtbe family knowing that it bad oc- . KurriL ' '. Then one day Auchlnklosa nppeared t the Wlllmarth borne and wat re stored to favor. "Yon remember," be asked, "our con. rversaUon when I was dismissed about 'a natural prejudice on my part as to the , one who would take my place? Well, jthat prejudice served a purpose. It twai I who unearthed your new lover." ;j "You? Why, you didn't know bis ' Xante." . j "I did. His name was the only name Ion the paper I handed you that was ' foot fictitious. 1 bad heard of him sev eral years before and had not heard 'inny good of blra, I went away and spent weeks tracing bis record, and tonally put those be bad swindled on iHiisftck.". "Yon don't mean It!" I "But for me yon might have married h swindler." All of which goes to show that our "worldly . wisdom doesn't count for tMlcb. UNDER THE OCEAN Changes In the Sea Floor From Shore to Shore. THE BIG MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE. My brother Tom was killed at the battle of ShUob. We were in the same company and at the time be was shot were reDClliin! one of those sledgeham mer attacks General Johnston hurled! against us like blows upon an anvil. I saw Tom turn around and fall on bis face. There was a pang, and then' I was like a madman. The Confederates were right on us, and we were fighting them band to band. I forgot danger and, poked and clubbed with my mus ket, fighting for vengeance. They said afterward that my "brav ery" held the otners, ana we arove them off. Then J. took Tom in my arms and carried blm to the rear. They came at us again and again, and every time they came I fought them more fiercely. , They did not give me time to cool off. But when the aun set on the last day of the fight I lay on the ground physically used up, and sorrow took the place of revenge. When the term of enlistment for my regiment expired we were mustered out. Many of the boys re-enlisted, but I did not I thought I bad seen enough of war. But a war fever is like any other disease It must run Its course. Whenever I heard a drum beat a dls tant shot the sound of martial music, I grew restless with a desire to be again tramping, fighting, in among the living and the dead. I resisted as long as I could, then gave in and enlisted for another "three years or during the war." During this enlistment I was with the arm; marching to the sea. One evening soon after sunset I was mnrch ing with my company when I felt ill and was obliged to drop, out of the ranks. I sat down beside the road, and after awhile, feeling better, I got up and staggered ou. Iu the west, above where the sun had set, the twi light still lingered, but about me was the verge of dapkuess. "Suddenly I was conscious of some one walking beside me. I was too tired aud ill to be es pecially Interested in who was there. I supposed him to be some straggler like myself who was trylngj Jo get somewhere, and that he would Boon go ahead of or drop behind me. But he did nelthen. He kept just so far away from me and a little to my rear. I remember once or twice looking for him, but either on account of the dark ness or because he was at the time far ther away from me or for some other reason I didn't see blm, or, if I did, it was but indistinctly.- ' "' But somehow it got into my bead that my brother Tom was beside me. If I bad been asleep I would have said that the feeling was something like a dream, but I was awake. Moreover, I didn't see Tom. I only felt his pres ence. I felt so ill and so exhausted that I didn't concern myself about this presence of the dead. My sensibilities were at a very low ebb, and it was all I could do to get on. I doubt if even I bad seen Tom walking beside me and he had talked with me I would have bad any ability to exercise the faculty of wonder. However, my consciousness of the presence of my brother remained with me till I saw a campfire to my left and the silhouettes of some men between it and me. I sheered off, and as I did so it seemed to me that the figure be side me parted from me. I staggered up to the persons about the fire and fell on the ground. They were making coffee, aud one of them held a tin cup full of it to my mouth and poured what seemed like a new life down my throat I tried both coffee and whisky for a bracer from fatigue, aud found the coffee in finitely preferable. Under the stimu lant I felt refreshed and lying fiat on the ground with my bead on a pile of dirt I slept till morning. Then after another cup of coffee an1 some bard- tack I felt strong enough to bunt up my command. While doing so I pass ed some Confederate prisoners. One of them accosted me. "I say, young man, who was that with you last night?" "What do you mean?" I asked.' I bad never seen the fellow before and couldn't make out what he. was driv ing at "Just before dark some of us were hanging on the rear of yon uns, lay ing fo' stragglers. I saw you drop out and I Jnst thought I'd pick you off, But it woulJu't be safe to do It till tbe column got out of earshot When you. got up I shadowed you, and was draw ing ahead on you when another man got in between you and me. I hadn't calculated on any one else being there and didn't like to shoot because didn't know who be was, for fear might kill one of our boys. - "He kind o' flickered in what little light there wat between you and me, specially whenever I raised my gun to shoot What made me curious about him was that be kept getting in my way whenever I got you against tbe ky where I could get good aim at yon. Who was he anyway?" "There wasn't, eu body walking be side me that I know of," I replied. What else conld I say?. I felt as surely as It I knew that Tom bad protected me. But I had no intention of telling a stranger who confessed that be bad tried to kill me that I bad been saved by a ghost. He would bare laughed at me or thought I was daft. One thing this experience did for me during the rest of the war, I bad no feeling of fear. I didn't bellev could be killed. It Starts at Iceland and Biaeots the Ocean Down Almost to Cape Horn. In Plaoea It Rita Above the Surfaoe, Forming Groups of Islands. . SENT.EOVERNOR CRAIG Board of Trade Prepares Al bum of Pictures Taken November 5 and 6. '' A sketch of the "landscape" ot the ocean bed is given by Dr. A. E. Ship ley in an article In the Edinburgh Re views -"The passengers and tbe crew of a liner racing over the surface of the Atlantic are apt to Imagine that under them Is a vast layer of water of vary ing depth sparsely Inhabited by a few fish. As a matter of fact the whole of this ereat ocean is teeming with life. If instead of taking ship we could take to-the water and walk across the bed of the Atlantic to America, starting from the shores of western Europe, we should In effect be traveling through a succession of new countries. Not only would the surrounding physical condi tions vary as we advanced, but the animal and plant life would vary in correlation with the altering physical conditions. "Walking farther and farther toward the depths of the Atlantic, we should soon lose all sight of the algae, and tbe shallow water fishthe plaice and sole, whiting, skates, dogfish and others and cod would give way to the megrim and the hake. The sea floor would gradually change from rock or gravel or stones to sands and ultimately to mud or' oozes of various tints, their original colors often modified by th action of the decomposition of organic particles in them and on them. AH these finer deposits are derived from the neighboring land and are blown seaward by offshore winds or washed down by rains and streams and carried out to the sea by rivers. "The distance to which fine matter in suspension may be carried is very great The Kongo Is said to carry its characteristic mud as far out to sea as COO miles, and the Ganges and the Indus as far as 1,000 miles. Except in the neighborhood of sucb great rivers a subaqueous traveler would soon pass beyond what Sir John Murray has called the 'mud -line,' a line that limits tbe terrigenous deposits everywhere surrounding dry land. Having reached this limit we must proceed warily, for at the mud line. at an average depth of a hundred fathoms, we shall find ourselves at tbe edge of the continental shelf, that rim which extends seaward to a varying distance from all land areas, the rim on which Great Britain rests. Beyond lies tbe continental slope, a precipice more or less abrupt and more or less high, descending by steep declines or terraced cliffs until depths of 2,000 fathoms are reached. "The Atlantic, compared with the other great oceans, has an unusually large ' area of comparatively shallow water. Of its total area 27.5 per cent la covered by wafer less than 1,000 fathoms deep; 18 per cent lies between 1,000 and 2,000 fathoms and 47 per cent between 2,000 and 3,000 fathoms; the remaining 7.5 per cent is still deeper. "At the foot of the continental slope lies an illimitable' plain of a uniform dull, grayish buff color, flat and fea tureless as tbe desert, and only diversi fied by an occasional at yet uncovered rock or wreck or the straight line of t recently laid cable. This plain con tinues with scarcely a change In scen ery or in level until we approach the great mld-Atlantlc ridge. As Bruce has shown, this ridge, which roughly bisects the Atlantic, extends from Ice land as far south as fifty-three degrees of south latitude, with a slight and quite inexplicable break fust under the equator. Tbe ridge runs almost parallel with tbe eastern contour of North and South America, which, i turn, as tbe ordinary map will show, roughly cor responds with tbe western contour of Europe and Africa. From time to time tbe ridge rises above the surface ot the 1 water, as in the Azores group, St Paul's rocks. Ascension, Tristan da Cunha and Gougb island. I'Havlng ascended the eastern and descended tbe western slope of this mld-Atfcmtlc ridge, , we should again traverse plains of grayish ooze far more extensive .'than any ' level land tract known to geographers, and at we approached .the America coast we should gradually pass through, In re verse order, the cones of life traversed when leaving Europe. On the eastern coast ot America the slope is much more gradual than on tbe western coast of southern Europe and Africa." An album," containing all the pic tures taken during the observance of Governor Lock Craig's "good roads days" in Buncombe county, has been arranged by Secretary N. Buokner of the Aahevllle board of trade and sent to the governor as a souvenir of this memorable occasion. This album .wltf doubtless be greatly prised by its recipient, since the work done during these two days was greatly appre ciated by him as a tribute from the people of- the state, and these pictures give a graphlo story or tne accom plishments in Buncombe, his home county. Governor Craig himself appeared In many, of the plotures, attired in overalls and wielding various Bcepters shovels, picks and plow handles. He is also shown in some characteristic poses addressing the people of the county on the Importance of good roads, which address was a feature of the last day, November 6.

The letter or accept ance from Mr. Potter is especially en thusiastic. It follows: i - "I have your letter advising me that at a meeting recently ; held in Ashevllle a movement was started to form an organization to be known as the Appalachian Park association, and Inviting me to beoome one of the vloo presidents. ; "I am enthusiastically Interested in this movement and it will be a pleas ure for me to render any possible ser vice in order to further it. It goea without saying that I am not only de lighted to be named as one of tne vtoe presidents but consider to be so named distinguished honor." . Mr. Claxton Writes as follows: "If my name will 1e of any service to your association, you may use It in the way suggested in your letter of November fourth, that ia as one of the vice-presidents of the Appalachian Park association. I am In thorough sympathy with the purposes for which tbe association Is organled." Mrs. Cone writes in part: "I give my name gladly and hope I will be able to do my little shore In helping preserve our forests, - and making our part ot the country a Joy always for the people. ' Acceptances have already been an nounced of Governors William H Mann of Virginia, Ben W. Hooper of Tennessee, Cole S. Blease of South Carolina, Emmett O'Neal of Alabama and John W.

The letters received from all .these distinguished citizens have ex pressed unbounded enthusiasm in the movement started by the association," and these expressions, It would seem. should bring the people of Ashevllle and this Immediate section to a quick realization of the, importance of the movement, and the equal Importance of their co-operation; In the realization of Its purposes. - v In connection with the purposes of the association, which are to have the forest reserves of the Southern. Appa lachian region extended and the sec tion opened to the country for recrea tion, pleasure and health, it is of in terest to note that In the small country ot Switzerland there are Investments In hotels to the amount of 10. million dollars, and this amount Is Increasing annually. Many of those who have vlBited Switzerland declare that west ern North Carolina and this mountain region is the equal ot the European resort in every particular. If, there fore, the purposes of the Park associa tion are carried out, there seems no reason why the travel abroad should not. in great measure, be turned here, and the developments nere in a few years reach enormous proportions. It was decided by the city authori ties yesterday that no further ;i tlon would be taken in the maticr of the tax against the dairymen unyl next Monday, when Judge Frank Car ter will take up the case as one of the first to be heard, at the civil term of Superior court. Saturday was the last day on which the city gave the dairymen to pay the ; tax, and so far those who had refused to pay have not done so. Ae the next term of civil court , is Just one week off, it waB thought best by the city authorities, It is stated, that they wait until the test case against H. I Net tles Is disposed of. Mr. Nettles, who was president of the 'local dairymen's association, was one of the few who last year refused to pay the tax which the city Jevled on the dairymen doing business in tbe city. A friendly suit was then begun against Nettles In Superior court and has been continued several times. . ' .. At a recent meeting of the board of aldermen it was decided that the dairymen had to pay the tax by No vember 15 or cease te do business In the city. It is understood that either side that loses will appeal the case to the Supreme court for a final decision, and in case the city loeea it is not known yet just what action they will take in regard to the dairymen, . There are about 40 dairymen who have not paid the -tax, although sev eral who do business in the city have paid. . The new deputy collectors, recently appointed to serve under Revenut Agent Thomas H.
