The decision of the state su-

preme court last Tuesday declaring the Akers' irrigation law to beconstitutional, insures the rapidadvance of irrigation interests inwestern Nebraska. The fact thatthere has been some doubt as to thevalidity of the law has retarded theformation of districts for the con

. structioh of ditches, but as the, wayis now clear a number of new ditchesare likely to be built under the pro-

visions of the law. There arefTome,however, who believe thata iavorabledecision from the United States supreme court upon the validity of

. the measure would tend to increasethe marketable value of - the irrigation district bonds. We believethat these bonds will find a reason- -

ably good market without a decis- -

tion from that high tribunal.

Nebraska's only populist con-

gressman, Omer Kem, writes to aChicago newspaper in response to acircular of inquiry that he has in

.. mind legislation of vast importance to all the people and wouldcertainly present it to the comingsession of congress did he not be-

long to the hopeless minority. Inas-much as both branches of congress,the executive and the court, areagainst him, he hardly thinks hewill present anything in the way oflegislative (bills. Does this meanthat Nebraska is to secure no ben-f- it

from one of its six representa-tives in congress? Does it meanthat its populist congressman is tokeep locked up in his mind all thosegreat ideas of such vast importanceto the American people? Is he go-

ing to deprive his constituents ofthe advantage which his projectedenactments would bring? In thename of Nebraska we insist thatCongressman Kem introduce his

. . bills and let their merit win theirpassage. Bee.

SElATOK THTDUTOlf AST) THE 17. ?.Senator Thurston has prepared a

''bill dealing with tlie vexed Pacificrailroads question which, he willin-- s

troduce at the coming session ofcongress. The gist of this bill is:Take a statement of the govern-ment's claim against the main lineof the Union Pacific as it will standJuly 1, 18, between the Missouririver and San Jose and offer it tothe highest bidder who will giveforty or fifty per cent of the principal or interest snd make that tlie--iminimum, and thereby the govern-men- t

will get half of its claim,This claim to be sold to one pur-

chaser who will have complete con-

trol of the system and all its prop-erties. One court should have com-

plete jurisdiction over a foreclosuresuit that provides for the sale of

. the property to a purchaser com- -

raittee to be created as a corpora-tion. This plan meets with the ap-

probation of the stockholders andreceivers.

JUDGE JTEYTLLIAXDKIS KSHE.The Lincoln Journal of last Tues-

day contained the following bit 01political gossip:

Gloom in large chunks is gather-ing slowly but surely around Gov- -

ernor Holcomb's congressionalboom. The situation grows moreinteresting every time the Gover- -

in the recent election and the voiceof Judge Neville, a dyed-in-the-wo- ol

pop is heard in every breezethat sweeps from the west. Thejudge is credited' with having good,sound political sense and it is noinecessary to tell him why GovernoiHolcomb made three trips to BillGreen's district and did nothing iu

. the neighboring judicial district.The governor knew Bill Greenwould not be in, his way in the popcongressional convention, but he.feared tliat Neville would. Theaction of the governor in stumping

- Green's district and failing to turnhis band for Neville is now commontalk among the populist friends 01Neville, and that gentleman has a

"big knife ready tor use at theproper time. He is so angry thaiWhen he talks about it his voicecan be heard in the next block.

CHAPTER ILLThe conversation was interrupted by

that young lady, who came forward tomeet them, with both hands extended

! and her gown .trailing behind her in away that disgusted Tom beyond measure. He had read of women who woretrailing gowns, bat it had never beenhis misfortune to see one until now. Tohis fastidious mind it seemed shockingly untidy, and an untidy womanwas, in his opinion, the most pitiablespectacle imaginable'

"I. thought you were never coming,Tom, dear," said Daisy, taking Bishands in hers and smiling up into hisfaca "And now that you are here Ihave a great mind to keep you all tomyself.

"I want to get acquainted with him,'she added, speaking to Mr. Parkhurst"I presume you know that we are engaged to be married?"

"Tom has told ma I'll offer congratulations when we are alone."

"I believe he means to kiss me, " re-

plied Daisy, looking at Tom. "Shallyou allow that?"

' r1-wi- ll answerwhen I am sure of hisintentions," replied poor Tom. '

"He thinks you could .not make upyour mind to do it," said Daisy, turn-- .ing to' Mr. Parkhurst. "He doesn'tknow how we behaved when you werein Wheatlands, does he? It seems everso nice to Bee you again, dear Mr. Park-hurst. Let us sit together on that couchin thecorner, where we can ralk overold times."

"I thought you were going to giveyour exclusive attention to Tom?" .

"I have changed my mind. Tom hasra squint that makes my eyes ache andhis cars are ever so much too large. --Ithink I shall like him better if I seevery little of him. It is quite necessary,,yon know, that we should avoid becom-ing too antagonistic, foi;we muse spenda great deal of time together."

Daisy's voice "was soft and sweet, butverylear. .Tom was quite sure thatseveral of the callers who had happenedin had heard her allusion to his squint- -

"Shall you alloio thatt"ing eyes and his large ears the onlydefects by which nature had sought tomar an otherwise perfect exterior. Tomwas very sensitive concerning these de-

fects, and liis frieuds had humored hissensitiveness for so long a time that hehad begun to believe that no one noticedthem .hut himself. Miss Daisy's criti-cism did not serve to increase his lovefor her.

Tom tried to make himself entertain-ing to Stella Manning, another of Mrs.Ridgway's nieces, but he could not keephis attention from wandering to the lit-tle figure in the gay gown of black andyellow, satin sitting beside Parkhurst

"You don't like her dress, I see,"said Stella, following his glance of colddisapproval. "Daisy always-- did havethe oddest taste Mn dress, and no onecan persuade her that it is not perfect.Gray hair, smoked glasses, bare, armsand shoulders, painted face, corsets and

bustle. Did et r any one see such acombination?!'

"It is not modern certainly,' repliedTom, trying not to sheer. 'I believethere was a time when all society ladiesdressed in that way. In these days of

--common sense obedieuce to the laws ofbeauty it hardly seems possible. "

"Daisy has a perfect mania for col-

lecting old things. They sayit is acharacteristic' handed down from agrandmother, who would give as muchas would make a poor family comforta-ble for a jear to possess a rickety chairor a soiled head rest or any equally use-less thing that had been owned by aperson of distinction. "

"Do you know that to bo a fact?"asked Tom eagerly. It had occurred tohim that if such a mania could beproved he would have sufficiently goodgrounds for breaking his engagement toDaisy. The law was not meant toen-forc- o

marriage with one who had soquestionable an inheritance for the com-ing generations. -

"I do not "know Daisy intimately,"confessed Stella, "although she is acousin, but I have reason to believe itis a fact. A great many persons havetold mesa"

"Can you give me the name of any ofthemr"

"You Eeem to doubt me,J' repliedStella coldly. "I ought to have remem-bered that you would naturally requireproof of anything said against the younglady to whom you are betrothed. "

There was peculiar emphasis onthe word "young" that Tom did not failto notice, but what troubled him mostwas the very evident fact that Stellawas displeased. He felt that she had in-

formation which might be of great useto him, and that he must exert himselfto propitiate her.

"I asked," he said quickly, "not because I doubted you please believe Icould not do that but for an entirelydifferent reason which I should prefer jnot to mention just at present "

"I beg that you will aot mention itat all," interrupted Stella, with an as-

perity that caused Tom to wonderwhether there might not be more thanone of Sautter's cosinwho --had a bad'temper. "Excuse me, please," she add-

ed, with frigid politeaees. "L.wish tospeak with aua tie;"

Stella croMftd the room and pretendedto button bar aunt's glove while shemurmured : "Oh, my unfortunatetoogvei I'm dying tojaugb,' auntie. Icame very neargetting myseh! into trou-ble justaowl'

It was decided that craning that Daisy should attend her first reception oiltbe following week. It was to' bo givenat the ekgant home ofr the. De'Quin- -ceTi,"who were con s I tkered the wealth- -

j

Highest ofall in Leavening

Absolutely pure

lest, most refined anil most "benevolentfamily in the state.

" Will this dress do to wear?" askedDaisy of Tom when the reception hadbeen planned by Mrs. De Quincey andindorsed by Mrs. Ridgway. "I want toplease you," she added "since it willbe the'nrst time we shall appear in so-

ciety together. ""If you will pardon me for saying

so," replied Tom coldly, "I do not likethis dress at alL"

"Do you not like colors? I seo somany ladies here in white."

"I do not like colors, and I deteststripes and spots and checks and every-thing which tends to make a womanlook like a peacock. "

"I am so glad I have a white dress,"replied Daisy .as sweetly as if Tom had'not been in the least ungentlemanly inhis manner of speech. "It is of whitesilk," she added, "so stiff as almost tostand alone, and it rustles .when I walklike wind blowing through the corn.It has a train three yards long, andthere are no sleevea at all just a littlestrap over the shoulder. It is trimmedwith passementeries which sparkle withevery movement, and I have some beautiful jewels which were left me-b- y mygrandmother. Do not fear that I shallnot make a sensation. Even you, who,I am told, have broken the hearts of somany girls, cannot fail to bo satisfiedwith my appearance. It will bo simplystunning."

Think what that was to hear fromhe lips of a girl to whom one was be-

trothed in a land where the perfectionof stylo was expressed in the words"beauty unadorned adorned the most;"whero jewelry and beads and passemen-teries were looked upon as relics ofbar-baris- m;

where only savages dressedthemselves iu colors ; where the naturalform and complexion were consideredmost beautiful; whero trailing skirtswere looked upon as an almost unpar-donable evidence of untidiness ! Thinkhow it must have sounded in the earsof p. man who. was the acknowledgedleader in the art of beautiful dressing.The fastidious Tom could not findwords to express his disapprobation ofthe gown she described. It seemed tohim that, in the faco of such utter lackof appreciation of the beautiful, nothingb'e could say would have the slightesteffect He was reduced to a state ofhelpless speechlessness quite foreign tofiim, but his companion chatted as incessantly as if she believed him to beinfatuated with her conversational pow-ers.

Tom could not but admit that herVoice was exquisitely sweet and wellmodulate It vibrated most pleasantlyupon his .sensitive ear, and its charmwas not diminished by the use of poordiction aid a faulty pronunciation. Itwould have been a delight to him tolisten to her could he have sat withclosed eyes, even though she talked onlyof trivial things. Sne reminded him ofthe characters portrayed in some of thenovels which were, supposed to representsociety as it was between the years 1870and 1886. In his fine condemnation ofthat age, as represented by Daisy, befailed to see that he himself showed ashare of the inheritance handed downby the parents of those days in that loveof luxurious ease which had been suf-ficiently strong to tempt him to placehimself in his present unhappy position.. "I think, Mr. Wainwright," saidDaisy quite suddenly, "that already yourepent your proposal. Am I not goodenough in your opinicn to help youevade a tax which every honorable manshould be willing to pay? Or do youthink yourself worthy of the best, nomatter what tfee you wish to make ofher? Does your exquisite taste r6b youof the instincts of true manhood?"

There was a touch of sarcasm in thesoft voice that cut Tom like a knife. Hetried to give her to understand that hewould not tolerate such insinuations,even from a woman, but he could notspeak. She had shown him a, picture ofhimself which he despised, yet whichhe could not deny.

"I intend," continued Daisy, risingand confronting him, "I intend to holdyou to your proposal, because it suitsmy convenience to do so, but I wish youto understand that you have not inspiredmy respect and that I do not caro to secyou except when you must appear as myescort I am disappointed in you. X hadthought, judging by what my cousinwrote, that you were a gentleman."

"MayX ask howl have displeasedyou?" asked Tom coldly.

"You have shown that yon are disap-pointed because I am less beautiful thanSander pictured me. Do not try to denyit. I have seen it in your eyes from theBrst, butr I should like to ask who andwhat you are that you give yourself theright to criticise my personal appear,ance. A man who, to continue his selfishindulgence, will-reso- rt tcTsuch methodsas I am helping you to carry out, andwho, instead of showing proper appre-ciation of my good intentions, sulks ina manner most conspicuous and insult-ing because I am not beautiful as a pic-

ture!; You shall carry out your part ofour contract, Mr. Wainwright, or sufferthe consequences I shall expect you tobe here in good season to escort me toMrs. De Quincey'e, but I do not care tosee you again in .the .meantime.- - vYouneed not fear that I shall exact muchsttsbtibii- - fnom you when once we arethere.-- I am not quite so unattractive asthat would imply."

She swept him a mocking bow, and,walking away with the air of an em-pres- a,

joinedthe party of young peoplewho had gathered around the piano in I

me music room. u.ne next moment xomheard her singing with young De Quin-jce- y;

and, angry as he was, he coulel nothelp paying a silent tribte:to her beau-tiful voice. "j:"If she were only half civilized," hemused, "and not quite so ugly but,.no,even bor voice does not make her en-

durable!"Tom quietly left the house, without a

word of parting to any one, and madehis way to his own room. He had neverbeen more thoroughly wretched. He feltthat, in one respect, Sander's deecrip- -.

tion of his cousin had not been at fault

punishment it would be to a man. to beobliged to go through life with such avirago 1"

CHAPTER IV.During the days which followed, Tom

grew thin. His appetite fled, and linesof worry were deeply drawn m his face.His lawyer assured him that he was afool for showing his annoyance so plainly and by that means giving his friendsso good an opportunity to discuss his affairs.

"They will mistrust that you are hardup," ho said, "and then you will loseprestige. I am ashamed of you, Tom.Why don't you brace up and bo a manabout it?"

"I wish you were in my boots, Park-hurst" began Tom.

"I should liko it of all things, myboy! Handsome, refined, popular,wealthy what more can a man ask? Asfor Miss Daisy, you are blinder thanyou need to be about her. She has a er

of attraction that more thanone of your acquaintances seems to ap-

preciate. I saw her out riding yesterdaywith young De Quincey and today withWalton Humphrey. ' '

"You didn't!" exclaimed Tom inamazement.

"I certainly did. You might liaveseen her also had you not been mopinghere in your room. There have not beenso many callers at the Kidgways inyears as there have been since Miss Daisycame to the city."

Tom brightened up under the influ-ence of the lawyer's information. It iswonderful how much easier it is to en-

dure a person when one discovers thathe-i- s sought for among the idlers of so-

ciety. Tom began to think that he mightat least endure what Do Quincey andHumphrey deliberately sought. He be-

gan at once to make preparations to at-

tend the reception at the De Quinceys.Half an hour ago he had decided to sendword that he was too ill to go, trustingthat she micht accept tho excuse. Hedecided to dress himself with even morethan his usual care and to appear sobrilliant that his unhappy manner dur-ing that last evening at the Kidgwayswould be credited to the premonitorysymptoms of tho indisposition whichhad followed. Ho was grateful now toParkhurst for having spread the reportthat he was not feeling well, althoughhe had been annoyed when his friendsfirst began dropping in to make inquiriesconcerning his health.

'i'oni never looked better tuan ne amwhen standing beforo the grate in Mrs.Ridgway's sitting room, waiting forthe appearance of Daisy. He heard hervoice in the hall, and, summoning a po-

lite smile to his face, turned to greether. The heavy draperies before thedoor were pushed aside. Tom advanceda step or two and stood faco to facewith a vision of loveliness which fairlytook his breath away. The smile becamemore genial as he 'softly explained thathe was expecting to seo Miss Blake.

"I am Miss Blake," replied the girlquietly.

It was Daisy's voice surely, but whathad become of the gray hair and thesmoked glasses? Where were the heavyeyebrows which had met so sternly overthe glasses? Where was the unsightlyblack patch which had adorned onecheek? Where was the ugly wart whichho had seen on the side of her nose?

"You are disappointed once more, Ipercerre," said Daisy, breaking the un-

comfortable silence which had fallen be-

tween them."I presume I might as well explain,

Mr. Wainw,righr, that I have been act-

ing a part. 1 wished to convince myselfthat you were as perfect as my cousinSander repreeented you to be. Shall wego now? It is growing late."

" You were fortunato in having suchable assistants to make your little com-

edy so eujoyablo," said Tom coldly."Oh, you need not blame your friends I

No one wanted to do it at first, but Ipersuaded them to change their minds.Sander may not have told you that Iusually havo my own way. "

Once more Tom was speechless. Itwas not difficult for him to believe thatso charming a girl always had her ownway. He would have turned against anyfriend he had for tho sake of pleasingher, but to have his friends turn againsthim was different.

"I suppose Parkhurst knew," he saidafter he had helped Daisy into the car-riage and taken a seat beside her.

"Oh, yes," replied Daisy, changing tothe seat opposite, "Mr. Parkhurst knew.He was difficult to persuade, however!"

Tom thought how Parkhurst had triedto persuade him to appear perfectly sat-isfied with his engagement to Miss

"You arc disappointed once more, I per-ceive"

Daisy, and he could see that if he hadfollowed his lawyer 8 advico he wouldnow be-i-n .a. position to laugh at his tor-mentors. Tom realized that he hadblundered, and he' did not know how toretrieve himself. He cursed himself andall his friends, but that did not helpmatters in the least In a few momentsthe carriage would stop before the doorof the Do Quinceys, and the silence be-

tween himself and that vision of loveli-ness.oppo6ita-

rapidly becoming moreuncomfortable. Tom would have likedto establish & friendly relation before hemet his friends, thinking that by so do-i-n

c he could make his own position lew 1

cnmcuit."I presume," he began, "that there

m no expkrMtiom""I think I shall ted it easier to for

get if 'yosy,'Qhing," interruptedDaisy coldly.

Tom ventured no farther remark, andthe two entered the bouse, in silence.

"Why did youdo it?" asked Tom ofParkhurst, when a little later he hadthe pleasure of seeing Daisy surroundedby the most eligible young men in theroom and making herself delightfullyagreeable to every one but himself.

"Because, Tom," replied the old law-yer gravely, "I thought it would do yougood. So did Mrs. Ridgway, who, adyou know, has always taken a motherlyinterest in you. You will pardon me forsaying that you were becoming too firmly impressed with the belief that, thobest of everything belonged by right toyourself. Da not get angry with me forsaying so. Remember that I was an oldfriend of your father. ' '

Tom was angry. He was angry, andthe more he thought of it the angrier hobecame. It was quite natural that heshould bo, and his friends appreciatedthat fact, and boro with him as patiently as possible, believing that beforemany days he would be himself again

"jLoni, sam rariumrst, "take myadvice .and appear to enjoy yourself.You, look, like a thundercloud. Keepyour eyes away from Miss Daisy, Leaveher as severely alone as she could possibly desire and give your attention to theother young ladies, as you used to da"

This time Tom saw that the lawyer'sadvice was good, and he tried to act-up-- ,

ron it from that moment He .never spoke"rp Daisy unless jt was absolsary, and no ouo guessedOiCself denial he practiced mummo was soon on as gooa fwx9CW$verwith his friends and was tho idel of-k- P

ciety, as he had always been. Theyoung ladies raved over him, but hocould not win one smile from Daisy , ex-

cept when she thought it was demandedby the rules of politeness. She was thepersonification of iciness whenever-tho- y

happened to be alone together.At first Tom had laughed lightly

when his friends mentioned her evidentavoidance of him, but there came a timewhen he could not bear it and when hisflashing eyes warned them that it was asubject which he would not hear dis-

cussed. There came a time when Tomrealized that Daisy held, his happinessin her keeping, and that it was a matter of indifference to her. There werodayswhen he was filled with a fierce ex-

ultation at the thought that sho wasbound to him for a period of more thantwo years yet, and that no one couldclaim superior rights. There wero othertimes when he felt that to see herandto wait upon her and know that ho hadno part in her life was a torturo whichwas fast becoming greaterthan he couldbear. There were bright mornings whenho resolved to win her love or die in theattempt. There were dark nights whenhe thought of tho easiest and surestmeans of committing suicide. He hadplayed at love a great many times andenjoyed it. He was deeply in love nowand Was miserable.

How was it with Daisy? It is a ques-tion which that young lady wouljl havefound difficult had she tried to answerit, but she did not try. Sho had cometo the city fully determined to give thebest-- of herself to her music. She had re-

solved never ,to marry, at least not untilshe had won fame ia the musical. world.She had entered into tho engagementwith Tom principally becauso she believed that by so doing she would befree from importunities of other menwhich she might otherwiso have founddistracting. She was a very earnestyoung lady, who had brought the wholeforce of her strong nature to bow beforethe altar of her ambition. Even herpleasures were enjoyed with the thoughtthat such recreation, if not too often indulged in, would enable her to workmore profitably. It had amused her fortwo reasons, to play a part to deceiveTom she wished to know if sho pos-

sessed the qualities necessary to a suc-

cessful actor, and s! fancied that itwould be more enjoyable than it hudproved to bo to try the man whom hercousin praised so extravagantly. Daisywas inclined to be cynical in her opinions of men. When she had first seenTom's face, she had liked it. She toldherself afterward that sho might haveliked its owner better than she should,considering her ambition, had he notproved himself so little of a gentleman.Therefore sho was glad tliat ho had behaved just as he did. She believed shehad forever dismissed that subject withher disapproval of his conduct, and thatnow her heart was impregnable so far asho was concerned.

At first Tom's opinions and preferences were really a matter of indiffer-ence to Daisy, but no young lady likesto havo the most attractive gentlemanof her acquaintance attentive to everyone but herself. Daisy was not pleasedwith Tom's behavior. Had she shownher displeasure in tho ordinary way shemight soon have been tho recipient ofmore attention from him than shewould have liked at that time, but shedid nothing in tho ordinary way, andshe deceived even herself as to her opin-ion of Tom.

Sho realized that he made her uncom-fortable, but she said it was because hewas so very ungentlemanly. She wassure that she should always despise aman who judged people entirely by theirpersonal appearance. There was no de-

pendence to bo placed in one whose regard for another was regulated by thatother's wealth of natural attractions.Sho never listened when her friendsEpoke of the great improvement notice-able in Tom Wainwright during thepast year. Sho preferred to believe thatit was impossible for him to overcomethe only fault which she had been abloto find in him. She assured herself andothers that a man with such a faultcould pretend anything, but that he wasfalse at heart, and the heart did notchange.

houn's was proposed, and the proposalheartily indorsed by tho young people oftheir acquaintanceT Silas Calhoun witsthe proprietor of a largo hotel built onthe shores of a little lake miles awayfrom nowhere at least that ia the wayit was described by the. eathusiasticguests who congregated there every sum-mer for rest.
