The Heir of Rossmo-yne. BY MRS. K. llL'llIvi: COLLINS. '"And this Is your final decision, Miss Granger?1' Kslelle Granger's fair face flushed Impa tiently, and sho bent her golden head to hide her annoyance as she made answer: "It Is final, Irrevocable quite so, Captain Claveiing. Willi your all, lack of wealth you have seemed to me somewhat pre suming. Fancy mo in the role of a poor man's wifel And you are only a captain in the regular army and without fortune." He lifted his handsome dark headwllh a haughty gesture. "Your argument Is decisive, Miss Grang er," he returned coldly. "You may spare me a repetition of your various reasons for ejecting me. l!ut liaio I ever told you that 1 am without fortune?" Her great blue eyes dilated with a look of ilmost fear. Great Heaven! what If sho had made some mistake, nn cgieglous blunder? And Leonard Claveiing was handsome, rcllncd. noble and manly; there was nothing to ob ject to sayo that she had always- believed dm to be poor. She flashed about, contritely now, and extended her hand. "Iteally, Captain Clayering," she stam mered, "I only formed my conclusions from general opinion. You cannot blame me, sur.'ly." He smiled coldly, scornfully. "Wauie you? Xol" he retorted freezing- ly. "You are only acting according to the rinclplcs in which ou have been reared, I owe you a thousand thanks for your re- ection, sinco it has been tlie means of openlnc my eyes to the truth nnd tho know ledge of your true nature. Tho wo man whom I wed shall love tne for myself alone, or I will go to my grave tinwedded. I leave here on the first train, Miss Grang er. .My visit to this seaside resort has been a very pleasant one, I have lo thank you for much of Its pleasure, and" with a low bow "the lesson I have learned." He touched the white hand with his own for an Instant In llio bi Iciest nnd coolest of farewells; the door of the pretty reception room opened and closed, and Captain Leonard CUvcring.U. S. A., was a memory of the past to Kstclle Granger. Hut tho spoiled beauty stood gazing after the tall, soldierly figure with eyes full of regret and tears! "I love him!" she whispered softly to herself, "and If I had knewn that he was not poor I wou'd have accepted him! lint mamma warned mc that ho was quits In eligible! And she has sot her heart upon my captivating the rich Mr. lioss, of Itoss nioyiie, tho finest estate In Leulslana! I have never met him, but ho will soon bo here, and rumor says that he Is coming to seek a brldcl This Misslssliml watering- place Is famous as a summer resoit for Ihe most beautiful women of the South; and I flatter myself I can hold my own with the I best of them. Let Captain Havering go!'' she went on with a willful pout. "I shall be satltfied with no less a prize than the i owner of Kosstaoyner' She trailed her white draperies a mass of fleecy lawn and delicate laces from the room, and sought tho congenial Society of her mother;.! mercenary woman whose sole aim In cxlstcnco was to secure a billllant match for Kslelle Angry, humiliated, with scorn In his heart for nil womankind, Leonard Waver ing strode from the bote where this Inter- lew had taken place, and went down to the beach. lie wanted lo be alone for a time to think over the situation; then lie would pack his wardiobe, and the pebbly shores of Pass Christian would know him no more. Drawing his hat down over his eyes, ho turned to (he most unfrequented pattof tlio beach and huirled onward, All at once, In n lonely nook, he came to a halt as his eyes fell upon an unexpected scene. ' A slip of a girl a fragile little creature of not im re than fifteen with great daik eyes In sliange contrast to the tawny mane of red-gold hair which streamed over her shoulders. A girl witli a face full of posslblllties.but In her eyes' a wild despair, as believing her self to be all alone in this forgotten comer, she crouched at the foot of a great oak tree, her hat on the sand at her feet, sobbing bitterly. "Xobody cares for mc!" the sweet young voice was saying. "Mamma loves no one but Estelle! And I am always forgotten and alone and miserable. Only this mot tling I ventured to kiss mamma, and she re proved mc, nnd pushed me away from her, for fear I would rumple her morning dross; and she called me an ugly child, and said I was a disgrace to tho family. Oh, if it wouldn't be wicked. I would wish to dial" Captain Lconatd Clayering, standing not five feet distant overheard the entire solilo quy, and the moody look deepened In his handsome eyes. A sudden impulse prompted him. lie stepped forward and laid his hand upon tho glrl'd bowed head. She Hashed about and sprung to her feet slender erect as a dart. The color came and went upon tho sun- burncJ checks; the glorious dark eyes were blazing. "How dare you?" she panted Indignant ly. Ho lifted his hat with a courtly obeis ance. "I beg your pinion, Miss Valerie," he returned humbly. "Only I overheard your words, and sympathizing with you, thought I would venture some consolation! You and I are fellow-sufferers through the scorn and coldness of your sister." Tho great dark eyes sparkled, "So she has refused you?" the girl cried lightly. "Well, I could have warned you of the result before you asked heft Estella has set her heart on capturing the heir of Rossmoync." Leonard Claverlng started as though someone had struck him a blow. His face grew pale for a moment. My child, are you In earnest?'' he faltered. She laughed. "I ought not to tell tales out of school, Captain ( 1 im r i:g," she reluri e 1, "and tl.c ttuth ought not to be told at all times; but I will reiterate the truth; Kstellc Is deter mined to become Mrs. Hossiuoviih! For my part, I would not he so sure until I had seen him. Why, Captain Claverlng, they have never met." He threw himself carelessly don n upon tho sand beside her. There w as an odd ex- prcsMon upon his dark face. Valerie." he was beginning; bnt she checked him with a peremptoiy little ges ture. Captain Claverlng, only my most Inti mate friends call ine Valeric, without pi e- flx." How dignified she was. Tlie captain smiled slyly. She was quite a woman of the world af ter all. "Miss Valerlo" he corrected himself humbly "I am going away, and" he stopped short. The laugh had faded from her face, and she was strangely grave. "Going away? Oh, Captain Claverlng!" There was a strange tin ill lu the young man s heart. Somebody regretted him. Ah, that was something! "Miss Valerie," he said softly, "I am go ing away because It is best forme. lam going to Kurope. I have, business there which has been already too long neglected. I intend to remain two years. Let mo see, you will be seventeen then." She shook her head. "I shall be nearly eighteen," she Inter posed; "for my sixteenth bhthday will soon be here." Ah, yes! Quite patriarchlal,' he re joined. "Well, my dear Miss Vaierle.mav hope that If fato throws us together n two years from now, that you will still bear me In your rcmemberancc?" She was biting her red lip hard to force down the flood of dilution which threatened to burst all barriers. Hut child as she was, Valeric Granger's will was adamant. She turned bravely and faced Leonard Claverlng. He look the slim, brown hand lu his own ami gazed Into the beautiful eyes. white lily was pinned in tho lace at her throat; sha removed it and laid It In his baud with a little attempt at a laugh, which died a natural death. Seol" she cried lightly. "Your mem ory of me will survive ns long as that flower lives no longer. Keen It as a token, Cap lain Claverlng." He pressed It to his Hps, then hid It away n his breast just as the sound of footsteps and shrill laugiitoi reaction inciu, and a ;ay group came sauntering by. Captain Wavering arose, and with a low obeisance moved away. A few days later the Gi angers returned to their rty homo. Two years went by, bringing many and vailed changes. Kftolle Granger was still tinwedded, for the heir of Kossmojiio had never made his appearance, and she had gradually dropped all mention of his name. Lovers came and went with the years, but although many knelt at the fair Miss Granger's shrine,she had turned frnmtnem all. "I can neier forget him!" her heart cried passionately, "the rnly man whotn I ha to-ever loved I Leonard! If you would only come backr' Valerie, n. grown young lady now, had made her debut In soclcly.nnd wasreceived with enthusiasm. For, although her beau ly was not so great as her sister's, there was a naivete and a graco about her which were Irresistible. So Hal Lvnde- hurst thought, and straightway became her shadow. So evident was his Infatuation that the affair was considered settled, much to Mrs, danger's satisfaction, for Lyn'dehurst was very wealthy. One day Captain Leonard Claverlng- just home from Kurope walked down the street from his hotel In company with an acquaintance. "II hat's the news?'1 asked Leonard, lighting a cigar as he snunteicd on, "Oil, nothing much," retliricd the olh er, "unless ah, yes, you were acquainted with Miss. Valerie Granger, wcru you not, Wavering? ' "A ll'.tle!" "Humph! Well, she Is soon to be. mar ried to Hal I.yndehurst, Lucky fellow or he would 'je, only I understand that It is an entirely mercenary marriage on her part." Wavering turned upon him almost fiercely. "I don't believe It!" he cried. "Xobody could make me believe that Valerie Grang er would marry a mail whom she did not love!" He turned as bespoke, and there.comlng down the street, was Valerie Granger, fair and sweet, In the daintiest of costumes, in company with her mother. iV moment more nnd they had met. They stoppeusliort and greetings were exchanged, and when they patted again Wavering had promised to call that evening. He meant to find out the truth. If she was false, then all women were faithless. I'hat evening ho found her alone for a few moments, her mother having been called away. In n few words, Leonard Wavering told tier of his loye. "See, Valerie!" he snld, "my love has survived your lily, for here Is all that is left of it!" And he showed her hidden nway be tween tho leaves of his note-book tho shriveled ghost of a faded flower. She lifted her eyes lo his, and he read his answer there. And he knew then that the story of her marriage was all a mistake, and that she was his own forever. An hour later, nt Mrs. Stanley's ball. Leonard Wavering met Ills old love for the first time since his return homo. One swift glance from tlie beautiful blue yes, and she held out a while gloved hand. "Surely Captain Wavering lias not for gotten Ills old friend, Estelle Granger?" she queried. Ho took the proffered hand In his own. I'liere was not a thrill ot his heart: his lovo for her was dead and bulled. Hut they sauntetcd awav together out upon a moonlit balcony, and once alouo.he began: "Miss Granger, I claim your congratula tions. I am going to be married I" She fell back pallid and panting, her eyes full of anguish. "Leonard! oil, Leonard!" the walled. "and I love you sol" His Hps cuiied scornfully. "You are too late!" he mado answer, "Your love could not awaken the faintest response In my heart, Kslelle Granger! Hut the best the noblest love of my life, is giv en to your sister, who has promised to be come my wife at no distant day. So, Miss Granger, simple little Valnie will be Mrs. lioss, and the mistress of Ilossinoyno!'' She gazed into his face with wild, In credulous eyes, "Il'hat do yon mean?' she faltered. "I am Leonard Claveiing Itoss!" he went on tocxplaln. "There was a mistake made lu the name when I was first pre sented lu society here, and I decided-being a stranger lo allow it to remain bo for a time. 1 wanted to win souio tiuo wo manly heart that would care for mc, nnd not for the owner of Kossmovnc! And I have found her. She Is coming" And ho turned to greet Valet le. She took his arm and they moved away together, while Estelle Granger's eyes fol lowed them hi mad despair. She bowed her head; her heart aching Willi a dull, heavy pain that was awful to bear, "My punishment Is just!" sho said. FASHION NOTES. Hustles grow larger.
