FREELAND, PA., FEBRUARY 8, 1897. j
HARRISBURG LETTER.
Harrisburg, Pa., February 0, 1897. :
On Tuesday, when the old capitol of ]
Pennsylvania was completely burned
ti the ground, not a thing was saved but
some records. The house was in session
at the time the lire was discovered, while
the •senate had adjourned for half an
hour. The lire originated in the roof over
the senate chamber, what was the cause
is not known. While the fire was going
on the big American flag proudly floated
at the top of the pole, until the fiery ele
ments burned oil the rope, when the
wind carried it nearly a block away.
When it was announced in the house
that the capitol was on fire, some treated
it as a joko, but when shortly after there
was a terrible explosion from a burs ted
gas pipe, the members realized that it was
only too true, and quickly retreated.
The loss to the state is carefully estimat
ed at $500,000. The Insurance is SIOO,-
000.
The Cirace Methodist church, within
a good stone's throw of the old capital
building, has been secured for the reg
ular sessions of the legislature until a
new building is erected. The building is
two stories high with numerous addition
al rooms at the rear. The senate will
occupy the second story room, which is
large and can be nicely fitted up, while
the house will occupy the main auditori
um.
In my last letter I made brief men
tion of a skirmish between the Quay
and anti-Quay forces in the house over
a resolution to investigate the state treas
ury. Another round was fought last
week and the Quayites came out
ahead. The aiTair, at this early period
of the session, demonstrates that the
factional feeling is growing and is likely
to become very bitter as the time passes.
Bills have been presented in the
senate making it unlawful to tear down
or mutilate flags on public or private
buildings; to preserve the water supply
at the sources of the rivers of the state;
to secure uniformity with other states
in the observance of Memorial and La
bor days; to require tbe retention by
employers of alions sums sufficient to
pay the taxes assessed against them;
authorizing justices of the peace to im
pose sentences upon convicted persons
with the aid of a jury, and making con
stables of townships ex-officio lire war
dens for the forest fires.
Senator White has presented a resolu
tion on the subject of congressional,
senatorial and representative apportion
ment. Mr. White tried to have this ap
portionment bill passed last session but
was defeated by the order of Quay.
Another act is to insure greater safety
in theatres by prohibiting persons from
standing in aisles and lines a manager
SIOO and thirty days in jail for selling
tickets with standing privileges. An
act to prevent the bleeding of candidates
for office is also on the list. Bills read
in the house are as follows: Reducing
the maximum rate of tax allowed for
township purposes, from one cent to
three mills on the dollar; an act to en
large the competency of the wife to testi
fy against her husband; also, an act re
lative to actions by parents and child
for injury to the persons wrongfully
inflicted on the child; no license for the
sale of liquor shall be granted to a
school director and no liquor dealer
shall be elected school director; making
it a misdemeanor for any life insurance
company to insure a minor under twelve
years of age. Nissley.

DECEIVER EVER.
BY GWENDOLEN OVERTON.
Carey Churchill Carter Clianning,
first lieutenant, Nth cavalry, died sc
long ago that most of his story is for
gotten, though it was a very great won
der at the time. Everybody connected
with it is dead also—his mother and
the other two women —and so many
first lieutenants have filled his place
since then that no one's heart is likely
to be wounded by repeating it.
He was a superb great fellow—as all
(the men in his regiment were said to be
in thcee days—of the big, blonde, and
•brave type, knowing neither fear noi
failure, and his fascination was some
thing that has become a tradition in the
service. So many girls—aye, and mar
ried women, too—had loved him that
the shores upon which he had touched
were strewn with wrecks.
The hearts of all those women hud
been broken, actually broken, not
just dented a little, as is
usually the cose in such affairs; their
lives were openly ruined, yet Channing
kept himself free of blame. Not one
could say "he should have done thus 01
so," he never committed hjmself, he
never acted in a compromising fashion
in the presence of a third person. But
the women who ran insanely onto the
desert of disillusion, followed the elus
ive pillars of the smoke of his words and
the fire of his looks, never again passed
bf yond into the land of content across
the wilderness. They despised them
selves in that pitiful fashion that wom
en have, but they loved him always—
for such is the way of their kind.
It had been his good fortune to have
dealings only with women who either
thought of him alone, forgetting them
selves, or with those too gentle to de
nounce him. Then, too, he hnd man
aged well; there was never any definite
proof. Hut in the early summer of 'BS,
the pitcher that had been carried
ninety-nine times to the well narrowly 1
escaped being broken.
The bride of Capt. Morton, having
seen fit, with due encouragement, to
fall in love with him, threatened to be
come unmanageable. She was a most
wonderfully attractive, feminine little
thing, but. she was neither of the self- :
Immolating nor of the concealing sort.
Having lost her heart, she lost her head, j
and Channing was in much, danger of
having his methods exposed.
His captain advised him: "Channing, 1
you'd better take a leave and get out for
a bit."
"Why?"
"Well, it's a delicate subject, but ,
Morton's an old friend of mine, and 1
don't want to see his wife disgrace ,
him."
"But what have I done? lam as in
nocent as a baby; and besides I think
you are mistaken." *
"We all exonerate you. It's not your
fault; but lam not mistaken. It's evi
dent to the whole post. Take my ad
vice and go see your mother like a duti
ful son."
Channing was flattered, but he was
also frightened; nevertheless, he was
undecided.
There was a hop there that same
night. Mrs. Morton was there, and it
was her actions that determined Chan
ning to take Capt. Lytton's counsel.
She was already in thehoproom talking
to the latter when Clianning appeared, ;
and the moment she saw him, standing
tall and graceful and indifferent in the
doorway, she grew so white that the
whole room noticed it, and she trem- !
hied, visibly. She realized her paleness
and knew that Capt. Lytton's quick
movement to put himself between her
and the watching eyes had been una
vailing.
Her own soft eyes filled as she raised
them piteously. "YOll see what a spec- '
facie I am making of myself. I can't
help it. I've tried hard. There's
nothing for it but to go away or break |
down."
"Poor little girl! Come away, then." j
"If you will just take me home, and
tell Dan 1—" she stopped, losing the
thread of her words, for Channing was
approaching.
Capt. Lytton offered her hie arm.
"Come, quickly," he said.
"Just wait a minute, please—just till
I tell Mr. Channing I can't stay for our |
dance."
She had flushed up and her eyes were
brilliant. She put out her hand to
Channing, drew it back, and again
stretched it forth, confusedly.
He took it and pressed it—yes, she
was sure he pressed it, almost. "The
third you promised me, wasn't it?"
"Yes, I think so," she answered.
Capt. Lytton turned on his heel and
walked away.
At the end of the third dance, while
they strolled together up and clown
the line, Channi.ng experimented to see
how far she would go. To his conster
nation he found that she would stop at
nothing short of blazoning he?* infatu
ation from the housetops. A scandal
was not what Channing wanted. He
was very gentle with her, but she wept
end said all manner of foolish things,
until Capt. Lytton came upon them and
took her home.
Very soon after this the lieutenant |
went on to visit hislmother. She was a '
Virginian, of the conventional poor but
proud order; and she lived on what hod
once been the kitchen-garden of the
family estate. Quito as often as not.
she was on the point of hunger, when
there was no demand for the needle
work of her quivering old fingers. Her
son did not contribute to her support.
"All of my beggarly pay, and more,
too, goes *0 keep up appearances. My
regiment is great on esprit de corps.
I'd like awfully well to help you, moth
er, but 1 must hold up my end of the
row. lam n Channing." And she loved
him all the better.
While he was with her in the summer
of *BS, through sheer lack of excite
ment he became enamored of a certain
Anna TrafPord. lie asked her to marry
him—quite the Jast thin/* he would have
J expected himself to do—and sbe, being
| completely fascinated, consented with
out even a decent amount of hesitation.
It w<is arranged that in the lute fall she
should join Channing at the town near
est his post, and there be married.
In September, the unhappy Mrs. Mor
ton having gone hopelessly away to an
other garrison, the lieutenant rejoined
his regiment. lie mentioned the fact
of his engagement to no one, but pro
ceeded promptly to lure on another
woman, a girl of gorgeous beauty, a hot
blooded brunette, with the eyes of a
Jael, the brow of a Madonna, and a
sensitive, well-made mouth. She was
the only daughter of Col. Ross, mother
less, and betrothed to one Lieut. Haw
thorne, who had loved her since they
had been babies making mud-pies to
gether on the sun-hlasted parade-ground
of Camp Thomas. She broke her en
gagement, and she broke young Haw
thorne's heart; but her own turn was
to come.
In November, giving way ungracious
ly enough to AnnaTratTord's pleadings,
'Jhanning granted her permission to
join him at the railroad town. She was
very poor. Generally she was consid
erate and self-sacrificing. Now she
rlainored, and would not be quieted un
til a mortgage was raised on the
wretched little house that was all in
the world her mother and crippled sis
ter owned. Slio bought her ticket
with the money, and ten days after the
receipt of Chnnning's letter she was at
the meeting-place—alone.
She spent a day and two nights in
the mean little depot hotel, very nearly
Dut of her mind with loneliness, fright,
•mil at last an acknowledged distrust.
Then Channing's mother arrived, and
an officer met them with an ambulance.
Clianning was dying of a fever, the
mother told her. The doctor had tele
graphed for her, without her son's
knowledge, the day after the girl had
left the village. Then Anna re
proached herself for her suspicions
with unreasoning bitterness.
The drive to the post took two days.
*lt was a horrible experience for the of
ficer. The road stretched on, ou, on,
across desert and bad lands, where
even the greasewood and mesquite was
burned by the terrible sun. The old
woman sank from the dust and the
heat into an almost senseless state.
The girl, being young and strong and
alive, fought with the strangling dust,
gasped, twisted her small hands, and
bit her lips in a perfectly strug
gle. Sometimes, as the lieutenant sat
opposite them, he wished that they
20uld cry or make n sound.
The beautiful daughter of Col. Ross
was standing by Channing's bed alone,
when the doctor led the mother and her
young com pan ion in. Thelieutenanthad
been dead 20 minutes. The dark-eyed
woman did not turn, she hail forgotten
everything in all the world, save onlj*
Thanning's face. When the southern
jirl dropped down at the bedside and
screamed for her husband, she started.
"Is the poor thing crazy?" elm asked,
dully, of Mrs. Channing.
"No. Hut- she was not married to
him. Only she was to have been mar
ried at Santa Maria, two or three days
ago; I forget when. He sent, for her."
"That can't be true, because T am his
wife."
Mrs. Channing caught at the bedpost
with her shriveled old hand. "Non
rense!" she said.
"Indeed, it is true. Aren't you his
mother?" She put her arm tender!v
about the bent shoulders. "I though I
you were. You look like him. ne and
T were married last night at midnight,
when they told us he was going to die."
"Anna! Come away, Anna! You've
no right there. Get up. This girl's his
wife. Tie didn't love you. Tie married
ber. Tie married her —Inst nigl.t."
It was cruel, but Mrs. Channing had
gone mad.
For five years afterward Co 1 . Ross
eared for the insane mother of his
daughter's husband—even when his
daughter was dead.
Hut until Channing was buried In the
Traveyard on the hill, where the coyotes
ilug up the mounds at night, and the
prairie dogs barked shrilly, and the
snakes glided along the dry, baked
earth into their holes—until he was
buried there the two women stayed by
her. Their trust in the dead man never
faltered. The girl Relieved he had been
i Misnared on his death-bed; the wife,
j hat he had never loved the childish

pity—spoke lier convictions.

old woman muttering and scratching at

At last, eame the sound of a far-oIT
%'olley of musketry. The girl jumped

"The firing over his grave."
