Beneath the coat he had so cnrefully buttoned nert ss his ample toest he was faultlessly attired. Faultlessuess i:i all things was Burr Pendleton's ehiefest hoi. by among many, and on this par ticular occasion lie had been more im portunate than usual. The reason was obvious to the man who waited upon him and whose attentions, always strictly correct, were on this occasion imbued with a touch of indescribable tenderness. "Is there anything more, sir?" lie in quired, . stepping backward two or three paces and regarding his employ ermaster would be a more appropri ate tt-rm in this case with a glance that was almost reverential. , 'Nothing, James ah. jes, the ease of pistols.'' was the indifferent reply. "Will you not permit me to take them to you, sir?" asked the valet ea gerly. "No. I will take the case with me. You are to remain here, James, and on 110 account leave these rooms until I return or until some accommodating frlond calls to tell you that I am net likely to d ) so." "if the matter were to be settled at fence, sir, instead of with pistols, I Should fee! better, but" An imperious g-rstur" interrupted further remark by the servant, and a moment later Burr Pendleton said quictiy : "Perhaps you had better fill my cigar : case, James. I may not have enongn with me. On the table In my dressing room you will tind several letters that I have written during the day. If I do not return that is. if I am not here by 11, on tomorrow you will see that they are delivered. I refer, of course, to such of them as can be delivered. The others you will post. Among them is one for yourself, but 0:1 no account are yu t() open it before 12 o'clock tomor row, or we wIl say a quarter past 12. How much ready uiouey have you at hand, James?" "Something over ?2.000 in American mouey, sir. It is in the secretary. Shall I get it for you?"' "No. 110. I do not want it. In the event of your reading the letter to which I have referred it will tell you just what to do. The amount you have 1 will be sufficient for your expenses. I ! think. That is all, I believe. No; there ( Is one thing more." j "l'es, sir." j "Among the letters you will find oue i addressed lo Mr. Craig Wyndham. I ; think I would prefer that you should 1 i deliver that In person, James. I have : remembered everything else In the let- ter to you. What time is it? Half past 8?" I will be late at the opera." "And ycu will not return here after the opera, sir?" "No; at least not before tomorrow. The meeting is to be at 5 in the morn ing. I am booked for supper at the Concordia at 1, and it will be 4 or thereabouts before we break up. Cap tain Agramcnte is to be one cf the party, and doubtless we wiil go to the shooting gallery in San Felipe Neri aft erward if there Is any time to spare. After that" The abrupt pause was suggestive, and tears gathered in the eyes of the valet. For a moment he remained Irresolute; then he stepped suddenly forward and extended his right hand toward his master.

"God bless you, sir." The door opeued and closed, and James was alone, but a long time pass ed before he moved from his position In the middle of the floor, and only God and himself knew what words he whis pered during those moments of silent agony. It was true that Burr Pendleton had an engagement at the opera that even ing, but it is also true that ho had no intention of going directly from his rooms in the Hotel Gilo to the theater. The idea of being late in keeping his engagement to hear the divine Patti '"f-'ue aiiu was carried rowaru au Francisco street, thence through the j Avenide. Jaarez past the Alameda and! El Cnball'ln noil nut- rnmi 11 the famous Passeo de la Reforma.

The hour was rather early for the frequenters of ihe place, aud only rife Just owe aspirated breath vf surprise cs j i-.ipcdhiui. j three of the tables were la operation. ' Pendleton did not bestow so much as a : glance upon any cf them, but strode the length of the salon, passed out ; ; again upon the pia::za c.d down j among the network of graveled paths j which dissected into every conceivable j design the luxuriant vegetation cf the i garden. lie followed one of these i paths until It ended abruptly at a rus I tie summer house. j December nights, even in and near the City cf Mexico, are chilly if not cold, and the fur lined coat that Pen dleton wore was by ro means a bur den. As he approached the summer house he drew the collar around his ears .no passea msiue. ferceiving ! that he was the sole occupant, he lighted a cigar and stood with his back ' against a section of the framework ' while he awaited the absent party to the tryst. Ten minutes later his pa- ! tience was rewarded. Pendleton could hear the sound of approaching footsteps cn the gravel, and presently the vine shrouded doer- way was darkened by the figure of a j woman closely veiled. Behind her, six I feet away, was unother, but instead of j the lace mantilla which decorated the I head while it concealed the features of her companion she was covered by a dark colored serape, and even in that dim light which was almost darkness It was easily perceivable that she tilled tiie capacity of duenna. Pendleton cast his cigar aside and, lifting his hat. bowed low. "I am glad, senorita, that I arrived before you did, since it has spared you the unpleasantness of waiting," he said. "Your message assured me that you speak English and that your serv- ant does not, from which I decided that you preferred me t use that tongue. Will you be seated, senorita?" She was silent a moment before re- plying, as If she lacked the courage to 1 speak, but at last, in a low voice that j was Indescribably sweet, she said slow- ; ly: j "I thank you a thousand times, se nor, not only for your kindness ia com ing to me here, but also for the secrecy that I feel assured you have imposed upon yourself at my request." "You may be assured of that much, senorlta." "If you will indulge me still further, I will remain in the doorway as I am now. My position serves two purposes, siuce I remain In full view of the serv ' ant and at the same time screen you from observation. I asked you to meet ; me here, senor, because I knew that I was less likely to be recognized in this : place and also because the grand opera , in the city has attracted nearly if net -ht iderf ifv " denorewv aonorej. ! quite all of those who might . me. i Pendleton bowed, but made ; Presently she continued !

Pendleton bowed again. "You fight with pistols?" "We are expected to do so." "May I ask the name of your second in this affair?" j "Captain Agramcnte." j She took one impulsive step forward and then, as if remembering that the j eyes of the other woman were upon j her, as hastily withdrew to her former position, but her voice was keyed a tone lower, and it was plethoric with Intensity when she spoke agr.iu. "I am the cause of your duel, Senor Pendleton," she said. "You?" he responded incredulously. "I have not even the honor of knowing your name, senorita. I am quite sure that I have neer heard your voice be- lili i t 011 accouai ot auj i unmu since 1 nave been in Mexico.' Again she was silent for a moment. ' Presently, in a tone so lowered that it , barely readied his sense of hearing,' she murmured: "If you will step to one side so that ! Maria cannot see you ami will strike a cerillo under tlie pretense of lighting your cigar, I will draw aside my man- 1 tilla. I think that will help you to un- ' derstand." j rendh ton obeyed the suggestion with I such promptness that she was not fully prepared for it. and the conscious Hush that suffused her face at her own te- ; mcrity was there still when the light ' of the wax match was reliected back upon him from her dark but brilliant eves. Just one aspirated breath of snr- I prise escaped him; then he turned ' away and leisurely lighted his cigar, j "Thank you," he raid, resuming his j former position cgaiust the framework ! of the summer house. I "Do. you understand now, Senor Pen ; uleton?' she asked. "I think so iu part, not wholly." "The duel must not take place." "It cannot be avoided, senorlta." "You are the chailecgin can withdraw." party; you "Impossible." "Captain Romero is the best shot in Mexico. He will kill you." "Quite likely." with an expressive thrug of his shoulders.

' Ho vas the orator of the day at a j Eouith cf July elebratiou held in one of the large theaie.s ia Washington uu- der the auspices of the Democratic Clubs of the District cf Columbia. The senator's appearance on the stage : was a signal for a tremendous cut- j burst of enthusiasm, and when the 1 l,--:!jt ct i'it.-1.- i-i, "Cpt'iT tf HrifW tn Old v'hgiuny" there was such a storm of cheers that I thought the roof would ue taiien oil. 1 ue eeuutor s speecn was all that my own or anybody's fan- '. cy could have painted patriotic, fer- j ; via. eloquent. After d willing upon j the glories of Americans in general he i touched tmou the glories of the Demo- : ciatic party. 'I hear a great deal." said he. "about the Democratic party being dead.

The transition from the lugubrious toucsof Mother Hubbard upon the discovery of her dog's death to the sudden joy ami triumph of finding him "uu and a iaughin" was one of the funniest things 1 ever heard. Stories cf Senator Daniel's Father. At Howling Green. Mo., where 1 live, one of my most valued friends and constituents is an old Virginia gentle man. John E, Sanderson. "Uncle John." as his friends call him, who has passed the psalmist's allotment of threescore and ten and who something like a half ! century t'go was high sheriff of Bed 1 ford county. Va. He loves to relate I anecdotes an 1 reminiscences of men : aud things In the Old Dominion. Sper.k j lag cf Senator Daniel one day. L'ncle John said: "He comes honestly by his courage and his eloquence. His father laud his grandfather before him were ! that kind of mem Both of them were Igteat lawyers His father and grand ; father were both judges of the court His father. Judge William Daniel. Jr., ; was judge of the circuit court, tna I Bedford was in his jurisdiction. I tell you he was a judg? that was a Judge. ! Whenever Judge Daniel spoke, it was the law and the gospel and accepted as such. The lawyers never jawed him back whe n he was ou the bench, however much some of them may have felt like it. He always went In for justice and equity. Always on the Right Side. "Oue time," continued Uncle John, "during the trial of a case In court a ; lawyer in cross examination tiian:iEeu t0 Blt tllP ltn'ss so confused that he dhlQ't know wl:al ,Mf vriS sa-v!"g" JuJSp Da,:il;'- who too In the s:tua- tior. at a glance, himself put several Qtlons to '' witness wtocti oi.-arpa up at. airs and gave the witness con- lidence to tell what he had to say Iu such a manner as to impress the jury with the fact that he was telling the truth and won the case. A few days after that the lawyer who had bullied the witness met the judge and said. 'Judge, do you kuow that I have heard you are accused of taking sides in court?" 'That may be true, sir,' said t'1' J":' drawing himself up to his n:!l height, 'nut 1 warrant you never heard of me taking the wrong side.' Judge Danisl r.nd Hostler George. "Judge Daniel." Uncle John went on. "was tail aud gattr.t. with a hawk bill nose and an eagle eye. When he held court at Liberty, the comity seat of Bedford, he always put up at the Terry ta vern. George, the in gro hostler at the favem. was a favorite with all the guests who patronized the house and was always sure of a fee when he leu out the judge's horse after the ad journment of court. One morning the judge c.me out and mounted his horse. George dutifully holding the stirrup. The judge look.-d at George, put his band in his pocket, and then. Joshing down at his horse, said: 'George, you ?Sfcoal you. I oughtn't to give you (his dollar. This horse doesn't lock as though it had boon haif fed. " 'Now. Marse .ledge.' said George, 'don't you go and tail: dat way. I done been a stuff dat horse a!! he could hole, but he Is zackfy like you Is. ir.ars ter he des can't hole enough to keep him from look In hongry.' George got the dollar." Nothing so fully demonstrates Sena- tor Daniel s popularity as tne rr.ct mat in his first race for the senate he had ror an opponent t.en-rai tltz-iiugu 1 and, having won the contest over of the royal family of Virginia, it plain to be secu that nob-.dy could i him. so he has beeu tv. i-o iinaiii- t mously re-elected, nobody tldnUing It ! i worth the while to rr.11 against bim. To sllow what a hold the Lee family I has on the affections of the people of i the Old Dominion. John Wise tells this story: Said he: "When Pitz-IIugh Lee was 1 governor of Virginia. I called 011 b:ni one morning, and while we were engag ed in a social chat a servant came into the room to tell him that a Chimimau named Wuu Lung craved for a.i audi euco with him. "Governor Lee jumped up ami with an air of mok cousteiiiatUi-.i e.vchihu ed: 'Why. now. I can't all., .v Wen Lung to walk tip here with that i :ua dry. I'll go down and it.' Ah. governor.' said I. 'Wuu Lung ha 110 light to your patronage anyway, vvah Lee has done more for you than any one else, lie made you governor of Virginia.' " D d If Ke Did and D d if He Didn't. Hon. Wiliiam II. Wallace of Kansas City tells the following: "At a church in a rural community one time, while the deacons were tak ing up the morning collection, one of them, becoming suddenly dcmci.tcd. walked out of the door with the mon ey he had collected iu his hat. leaving the audience too thunderstruck to move or utter a sound, finally the preacher broke the sikiue by saying, with great solemnity, as he gaznl at the absconding deacon, 'if !: walks off with that money, he will be d d.' , whereupon an old deacon exclaimed. ; 'Well, If he hasn't already walked o.T with it, I'll be d d.' " Played According to Nets. Hon. Jasper Talhert of South Caro lina told the following to illustrate how j Republicans stick to their party: i "Down Iu South Carolii.a," he said, : "there was a rich lean died, and th-.-y gave him a great funeral. On the way . to the cemetery the Land marched be- ' j hind the hearse playing the "Dead ; j March' in 'Saul.' Suddenly the buss j j horn croaked out a tremendous ear ', j splitting discord that drowned ail the ) j other music and frightened the hearse 1 I horsed so that they ran oh cud threw j : the corpse out, and that scared tke 1 ; other horses so that they ran off. and there was the very Old Harry to pay everywhere. The bandmaster hastened ; back to the bass horn and cxchuried: 'Have you gone crazy? What ia the 1 world made you play such a discord? ; 'Well, sir.' said the bass horn, '1 didn't I mean no harm, wouldn't have dune 11,11 lu iui 111c win iu 11 1 coiiio i;tve helped It. but the way of it Is this: You see, sir, a horse fly lit on my note- 1 r.... .v... 1.1 : a , 1 , : book, and I thought It wuu a cole, and i I played Ler.'" j Campaigning In Indiana. Judge J. M. Robinson, who is one of tlip nieiM'es-t Bint ii,(,vt lrM!'!:it ..P i'.o Indiana delegation, frequently coii tribute;; to tne hilarity of the cioTikroom j by stories t.f pioneer life. Just before congress adjourned he told this :,m -doto i cf eiriy d:iy campaigning in Indiana: j "In the early times of Indiana pod tics it was not unusual for congression al candidates to travel together, speak i together. rUif together and sleep to ; get her.
