With the coming of March Mrs. Al laire wu permitted to resume her walks in the immediate vicinity of the cottage, in company with Kate and the mulattress. A little later Andrew Hollister called at the house and satisfied himself that the health of the patient left nothing to be desired—that her physical condition was in every way satisfactory. Mental ly, it is true, there was no improve ment perceptible, and when Andrew Hollister stood in Molly's presence her condition wrung from him the admis sion that her mind was irrevocably lost. Lew Barker's position now became more and more desperate. Mrs. Al laire's fortune, which he had converted to his own use, had not been sufficient to fill the pit gaping at his feet. There was one way in which he might save himself, but it didn't seem as if the thing could be accomplished in time enough to do any good. While it was true that Mrs. Allaire was alive and well, it was also true that Edward Manson was in the very best of health. In the wariest and most underhanded way, so that his action might not be come known to Manson, Lew Barker had succeeded in unearthing this strange character hidden away in the depths of his wild lands in Tennessee. Strong and vigorous, hardly sixty yet, with his mental and physical endow ment at its best, Edward Manson led an outdoor life on these vast tracts of field and forest, working off his surplus vi tality by fishing and hunting, now on foot, now on horseback, managing these extensive estates without taking coun sel of anyone. He was the true type of those sturdy North American farmers who live to be a hundred, and the only wonder is how they can .bring them ■elves to die at aIL There was, therefore, no use expect ing any immediate results from this source. In fact, it looked as if the nncle would outlive the niece. All hopes which Lew Barker might have built up in this direction were mani festly toppling over, and he found him self face to face with inevitable disas ter. At this moment two-thirds of Mrs. Allaire's fortune had already been ex hausted and there now remained in Barker's hands but fifteen hundred dol lars. Pressed as he was on all sides by demands, this fifteen hundred dollars was like a drop of water in the bay of San Diego. But while it might be insufficient to enable him to meet his obligations, yet in case flight should become necessary there was quite enough to put him out of the reach of hS pursuers. And the time had come to act. Actions at law were now insti tuted against Lew Barker, both for swindling and for of trust, and It was not long before an order of ar rest was issued against him, but when the officers presented themselves at his office in Fleet street, they were in formed that he had not been seen since the day before. They at once went to Prospect cot tage in search of their man, but he had left the house in the middle of the night. On that day, May 17, upon reaching Prospect cottage, Andrew liollister made the discovery that' Molly's fortune had been entirely wasted. She waa left without a penny in the world. Her dishonest guardian had not even left her enough to provide for her imme diate necessities. Mr. liollister was not long In deciding upon the only course left open to him. It was to transfer Mrs. Allaire to some private es tablishment where she would be well cared for, and to discharge the nepo woman, whom he had always looked upon with suspicion. The retreat to which Molly was trans ferred by Mr. Hollister was tho private establishment of Dr. Bromley who had already attended her. Would these changes cause any alteration in her mental condition? It was hoped so, but all in vain. The same indifference was noticeable under her changed surround ings, and yet there was a slight modifi cation of her condition which tho keen eye of the expert did not overlook, a coming to the surface of a shred of ma ternal instinct amid this wreck of rea son. It was noticed at times that she was engaged in murmuring a lullaby as if she were occupied in putting to sleep a babe which lay on her bosom. But the name of little Walt never passed her lips. No tidings of John Allaire came dur ing the year 1870. And tho same thing could be said of the Barkers. All ef forts to unearth them had proved fruit less. No one knew whither they had gone or under what name they had con cealed their identity. The truth was Lew Barker had good cause to cry out against fate for not being able to main tain his position in his Fleet street office, for only two years after his dis appearance the contingency upon which his grand scheme was based, become a certainty and it may be said that he reached port only to go to the bottom. Towards the middle of June, 1878, Mr. Hollister received a letter addressed to Molly Allaire. This communication Informed her of the unexpected death of Edward Manson, who had been ac cidentally killed. While out hunting a rifle ball, fired by one of the party, had glanced and, striking him in the breast, had killed him instantly. Upon HUmrHf KILLED HIM INSTANTLY, opening the will It had been found that he had left his entire fortune to hia niece, Molly Manaon, wife of Capt Al laire. Making a rough estimate of realty and personalty, uncleared land, farm land, sheep ranches and mill property, the fortune left by the testator would figure up about two million dollars. Did the news of Edward Manson's death and of the large fortune left by him come to Lew Barker's ears in his biding place? It is impossible to say. Andrew Holliater, in his capacity as the committee of the person and estate of Mrs. Allaire, resolved to sell the Tennessee farms and wild and graz ing land. The board and treatment of Mrs. Allaire at Dr. Bromley's establish ment would call for the expenditure of a very small portion uf the income which would be annually passed to her IB_*24J}g&Kß Wft BUTLER, P.A., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 18!K>. would in the end make her one of tbe richest women In southern California. I 'When IST9 had come in there waa none hopeful enough to think that it would bring any change whatever in . the situation, and yet it did. Tbe fact is that during the earlier months of the new year Dr. Bromley and the physi cians attached to his retreat bad noticed unmistakable symptoms of a change In Mrs. Allaire's mental condition. That calmness of despair, that stolid apathy which she had shown for all the petty details of actual life was interrupted by moments of emotional activity. It waa thought advisable to remove j her from Dr. Bromley's establishment, to take her back to Prospect cottage, back into her own room; and when this had been done there were on her part manifest signs of a realization of what had happened and of interest awakened by finding herself amid other surround | lugs- With the coming of the first days of spring—it was April then—the walks in the neighborhood of the cottage were resumed, and several times Mrs. Allaire was taken out on the beach of Island point. Her eyes followed the movements of the vessels In the offing and now and then she stretched he* hand out toward the horizon. But, un like the first experience, she made no effort to escape from Dr. Bromley, who walked by her side. Nor did the noise of the waves as they broke foam-laden, upon the sand affect her unduly. Waa there reason to think that In her imagination she was following the course of the Dreadnaught as she sailed out of the port of San Diego and her topsails disappeared from sight behind the cliffs? Yes, perhaps so, for one day she was distinctly heard to murmur the name of John! Yes, had it been that the Dreadnaught was to come sailing back again; could John have returned home at this time and have confronted Molly suddenly, possibly she might have recovered her reason, but, alas, what idle speculation was it to look for the coming of Johnl For this reason, Dr. Bromley deter mined to subject his patient to a shock —a dangerous remedy withal, but one which might be followed by the best results. On the morning of May 87 the two men called for Mrs. Allaire at Prospect cottage. Dr. Bromley's intention waa not to re-enact the heartrending scenes in any manner; but to place Mrs. Allaire in the exact position occupied by her at the moment when her mind received its direful hurt Mr. Hollister and he led her towards the steam launch, and hardly had she set foot upon the deck when her demeanor was such as to hold the attention of the two men spellbound. Apparently with an instinctive movement she walked to the bench on the steamboat side of the launch and sat down in the corner which she had occupied when holding her child clasped to her boeom. Then she turned her gaze down the bay, towards Point Loms, as if she were looking for the Flying Cloud at hei anchorage. The launch had already made about half a mile of her course, and Molly'a eyes had not been lowered to the sur face of the bay. She kept tbem directed toward Point Loma, and when at last she turned them In another direction, it was with the intent of watching the movements of a merchantman which, with every sail set, had entered the bay and was heading for the quarantine station. Molly'a face seemed as if transfigured. She rose to her feet, her eyes still riveted upon the incoming ship. It was not the Dreadnaught and she was harboring no illusion that it was. With a mournful shake of the head, she murmured: "John—dear John, you'll soon be coming back, too, and I shall be there to receive you." Suddenly she plunged her gaze down into the waters of the bay which now for the first she recognized. A pitiful wail escaped her lips as she turned to Mr. Hollister. "Mr. Hollister, Is that you?" she in quired, tenderly. "But my little Walt —my child —my poor dear babe—he is there—there—yes, I remember—l re member —" and with these words she threw herself upon her knees on the deck and the teara burst forth tumult ously. (TO BE CONTINUED.) HOURS WERE TOO SHORT. An Old La- labor and capital invested. This was one of those characteristic Democratic dodging planks which was intended to mean, and did mean, anything to any body. Mr. Randall stamped New York saying that it meant protection; Mr. Hurd stumped Ohio saying that it infant free trade; Mr. Mills stumped Texas say ing that it meant an income tax: Mr. Watterson stnmped Kentucky saying that it was exactly in line with the views of the star eyed goddess of reform. But the Democratic convention of 1892, when this identical plank was pre sented to it by its platform committer, overwhelmingly threw it out. and by a vote of 546 to 342 the convention de clared itself for free trade pure and sim ple. To have regard for any other pur pose, it said, in devising a tariff, than the one purpose of raising revenue, was unconstitutional. In dealing with thss plank Mr. Cleveland has twisted in evi dent distress. He means what the plank means, but does not dare to say so. In stead he says he believes what he always believed, and that every body knows what he has always believed, and that that onght to be enough. Finally he says the people cannot lie frightened by the specter of ini]>ossible free trade, which means, if it means anything, that the people must have confidence in him and his party, because they do not really mean what they say, and have not the courage of their cor.victions. This is certainly a curious ground on which to appeal to intelligent people for their suffrages. The Democratic con vention declared at Chicago in favor of tlio repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on state bank issues. This has excited the profound alarm of every believer in a stable currency the country over. Those of our people who lived before the war will relnember the condition of congress and affairs when everybody was per mitted to start a bank and print slips of paper called money to the extent of his inclination. Millionsonmillions of more or less worthless money floated around the country, nobody knowing precisely what the bills he had in his pocket would be received for at the bank, nor indeed whether they were genuine or counter feit. The Republican party is fighting in this campaign for protection to Ameri can industries and American labor. The Democratic party is fighting for free trade. Mr. Cleveland dodgee the issue. The Republican party is fighting in this campaign for honest money—dollars of equal value, and that value 100 cents on the dollar. The Democratic party is fighting for wildcat money—an unlimit ed issue of meaningless paper. On this issue Mr. Cleveland is silent. CAMPAIGN TEXTS'. A TIMELY DISCUSSION OF TOPICS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE AND INTERE6T. The Work of the Ariniliilatratlnn Re viewed —Many Fact* Which Will Inter est Every Speaker, Writer and Voter. Contracting Two Arimlnlatratlona. [Special Corroapondence.] NEW YORK, Oct. 3.— One of the most interesting publications of the campaign has made its appearance in tho form of the "Republican Campaign Text Book." It is the result of much careful labor on the part of people thoroughly fa miliar with the political history of the country and of the two great parties, and as it is prepared for the use of cam paign speakers and writers great care has been taken to make its statements absolutely accurate and reliable. There fore the information which it gives is the more interesting. Mr. T. H. McKee, of 82 West Thirteenth street, has charge of its distribution, and, although it is a book of nearly 300 pages, mails It at six teen cents per copy. Hero are some of the things which it shews: It shows that the manufacture of woolen goods has prospered under the new and higher tariff as it never pros pered before, and that the wool growers have been so greatly encouraged that they increased the number of their sheep 1,500,000 in the first year under the Mc- Kinley tariff. It shows that the prices of woolen goods were lower under the McKinley tariff than before, and that no loss ha* resulted to consumers from the new duty. It shows that forty-two tin plate manufactories Uavo been establish!-! since the passage of the McKinley law, making tin of a quality superior to that made abroad, at higher rates of wages and a reduced price, the selling price being actually lower now than und-i the old tariff. It shows that the aggregate of domes tic exports in the 101 years under the constitution have beeu :|21,692,739,811 of which sum $15,639,818,791 occurred during the thirty years of protection, the total exports during tho seventy years being but $6,052,921,052. It shows that under twenty-two years of protection 41,362,000,000 poun U of cotton were sent abroad against 30, ton,- 000,000 pounds in the preceding sixtj years. Both these statements show tli>- fallacy of the Democratic claim that protective tariff closes the markets of other parts of the world to Ameiica. It shows that the product of the farms of the country has been greatly in creased under protection. In twenty years under protection we have ex ported |3,147,000,000 worth of bread stuffs against (1.260,000 in the prt d ing fifty years. The exports of mea* products under twenty-two years of pio tection have been 6,391,000,000 pounds against 1,490,000,000 pouiuls in eighty one years of low tariff preceding. It shows that under reciprocity th>-re has been an increase of many million-, of dollars in our exports to Central and South American countries, and that in many articles the increase has amounted to from 50 to 150 per cent. It shows that the Republican party has been the author and finisher of all the pension legislation enacted in behalf of the old soldiers. Nearly every pen sion bill before congress was voted against by more than half of the Demo crats in congress. A tabulation of the votes cast on the important pension bills enacted since the war shows 501 Demo cratic votes for the bills. 902 Democrats votes against them, 1,291 Republican votes for the bills and two Republican votes against them. It shows that the so called force bill is nothing more than an extension to all parts of the country of the eminently jnst federal election laws now in force in all the great cities, and which Mr. Cleveland am] his nubordidated made use of while he was president in theirefforts to re-elect him. It shows Mr. Cleveland's veto record a- a startling evidence of his hostility to the working people and the masses. His vetoes while governor included the me chanics' leiu law, *he bill making em ployers responsible for accidents from imperfect machinery, of inferior con struction of buildings, the bill forbid ding the manufacture of cigars in tene ment houses, the bill making ten hours a day's work for street railroad compa nies, the bill prohibiting elevated rail roods from charging more than five cents fare, the bill requiring all state printing to lie done by union workmen, the bill abolishing convict labor in prisons, tho child labor bill, and while president he vetoed tho anticonvict labor bill in 1886 and again in 1888. It shows that t level aid t m his message on I**. 0. th< • m ployment of federal convicts in manu facturing pursuits and the use bv tbe government of the products of the-.r labor. It shows that tbe average rate wages in tbe United States is fully d<>-; ble that in Orrat Britain.

American Cut Glanc- Its History and Value —How It Compare* with That of Other Countries —Wage* Much Higher Here, Qualities lletter and Prlees Lesa. Yesterday morning Dorothy came (ly ing in before breakfast. I was up to my rlbows in angel cake flonr, sifting it for the third time, but she flung one arm around my waist and with the other dangled n bank note with numbers ten on it before my face. "Listen, or I'll never let my breakfast cool off again to talk with yon," she exclaimed. "What I want of you i- to make your self presentable and t .me to town urith me. That real china yon gave me has gone to my head, and I won't have any bnt real things in my home, be they ever so simple,'' hummed she. "It's to be cat glass—tumblers, a dozen. Father has told me the name of a dealer—an old man, the first one in this country—who made the finest cnt glass. Now fly around." I flew around and we went down town. Mr. John Hoare, whose name Dorothy's father □ad given us, was in, and replied to onr unsophisticated interrogations and ejac ulations with much patience. I said, among other things, that niy friend and I wanted to make a little purchase and that perhaps he would tell us something about American cut glass. "There isn't any finer cnt glass in the world than some of us make in this country," said he, "and if the people don't know it, it is because for twenty five years yon could go tbe length of Broadway and not find a dealer who would admit that he bad American glass in his store, for the people were contrary, and their confidence was in foreign things. Wait a bit. "I've come to stay and you watch me,' I used to say. 'l'll have the American ladies with their pretty noses up in the air against what is made in their own country ask ing for glass made in tbe United States." And this is what the best of them do now, like yourselves, as I could show you by the books at home. "Do you mind that?" holding to the Ught a tumbler which Dorothy had been gazing at affectionately for some time. It was as pure as a mountain stream, and the brilliaut hues reflected on its prismatic surface were the wild flowers growing along the brink. "Thero's nothing better," said the vet eran; "but of course some are made with more work on 'em." "I hope it isn't too expensive," said Dorothy ajmoat pleadingly. ''Ten dollars a dozen, miss." "It is mine, then!" she exclaimed, joy fully clasping her hands. •Tin glad you're pleased, miss, and here's a bit of history thrown in. The sand it was made of came from Berk shire. Mans. The glass mixture cuets us fifty cents a {>ouud, and 90 per cent, of what you pay for the tumbler is for labor. Every oue of these little cuts has been gone into eight times with wheels or brushes. The men who make them are such as got ten or twelve dol lars a week in 1850, and the same get twenty a week now. Here is a tumbler with less work, which the retailer sells now for nine dollars a dozen, for which he got twenty dollars ten years ago. The difference comes because the demand for men is always increasing, and we make so many more tumblers that we can sell them that much cheaper. Now, miss (to me), you are going to ask about the imported ones, and here ia the truth. We don't pretend to sell for leas money, but we promise you that you are getting a tumbler more carefully designed and tut, and of purer glass tban an im ported oue for the same money. "When the ladies understand the facts, I shouldn't wonder if there w;ia a per manent quarantine against glass made by half starved wretches in the owld country." "Well," said Dorothy, "if we make our own glass here, and the poor things over there have no money from us, won't they suffer very much?" "Now, miss, tell me this: Are you ever after hearing of a drowning man being saved by another going down and drowning with him? No. You've got to pull him up; you can't save him by holding him down. This Republican protective tariff is a life preserver around a man. The poor suffering folks in the owld country must come over here and get on a Republican life preserver if they don't want to drown, for the water ia getting deeper over there, and John Bull's preserver* are made to fit the aris tocracy. "Here, mind this." It was a stopper from a glass decanter Tbe man that makes such things at my factory gets twenty-one dollars a week, and he got seven dollar-; in the owld country, where they don't lielieve in protecting the workingmen. Yet the spalpeen is vot ing for free trade and for only seven dollars a week here just to please Grover Cleveland and John Bull. Now, isn't he after Icing accommodated?" "In England an apprentice in this business gets only three shillings ami six pence a week for several years of his ap prenticeship. which lasts seveu years. In Austria, luat man standing by the desk, Jhmepb i logfl, of S2# Kast Ninth street, will tell you, he had to |>ay for his apprenticeship st. and g. t no pay whatever for three years. And I pay my apprentice- five or six dollars a week atthestart. I pledge m} word aatothoae facts, and think 11 »-r«- i-t no ls-tter illu.-. tration of the way this Republican tariff works." Then Dorothy and I thanked him; site gave him her address for tbe tumblers, and we said good day. "Hester," said she, as we were going up the elevated stepe, "it's just such brawn and brains and working for the little woman' that makes our republic what it is." "Yes," 1 replied, "and blessings on the country and the sort of government that helm a man or a woman, little or big. in the fight to make a living." GRACK KSTOEI; DRZW DOROTHY'S PRESENT.
