To-Day's Short Story. KATHIE'S ROMANCE. Kathie Fernald comes up the drive, a big dog trotting soberly at either side, crosses the terrace, with a nod and smile to the two sitting there, enters the open door as lightly as the sweet west wind that follows her, and goes upstairs unannounced, the brass- shod heels of her sma.ll walking boots clicking musically over the tike of the hall floor. "Do you not think Kathie Fernald pretty- and 'taking,' Doctor Majturin ?" speaks Juliet Ormond's slow, serene voice, with just a lazy lifting of the dark almond-shaped eyes to his face. I thought her beautiful last summer, and most charming," returns the gentleman addressed, half absently, yet taking exception to that participial adjective in spite of himself. Ah i" syllables the mellifluous voice, persuasively. "And not now? But why not, pray, if I may ask?" She seems changed, to my eyes, from the way ishe looked then," says Robert Maturin, frankly, yet with a troubled shadow on his honest face. I can see but one real difference about her, and yet to me it alters her whole appearance." "I suppose you mean the style of short-cut I hair which she has taken up?" with a shift- ing gleam in the slow, black eyes. -AVeil, it has become 'the fashion.' It is quite the I rage, too, among those youne women who are a little-no, not quite fast—I don't mean that exactly; but-well-just dashing enough to be fond of horses, dogs, toboggans, and tricycles"—(Dr. Maturin winces. Does not he himself remember how fine and fearless a horsewoman Kathie Fernald is, and that she own.s to a likiag for dog¡:!? And he knows she has toboganned at the Exhibition. But tricycle-s-oh, never !)-"a.nd it is also much affected by the literary and lecturing sister- hood. Besides, it is very becoming to Kathie, and she knows it; it is not everyone to whom it is given to wear baby curie eo bewitchingly—ehe never wae so perfectly chio in her liie. I think she is just m 'taking' as she can be." All this in the low, placid tone of languid criticism, watching its effect the while from under drooping eyelids. He makes an impa- tient gesture at the close. "I dont admire dashing girls, nor 'taking'! ones either; and as for ciucv I hate the word in connection with ladies. And short hair I do abominate, however becoming its wearer may think it; a tastefully arranged coiffure has more charms for me," with an approving glance at the well-kept black coils on hia handsome companion's head. She smiles & little; her masked battery has not been play- ing all in vain. And Kathie Fernald, sitting in unsuspected proximity a-o the open window of the room above, where she has gone to await her friend's return, inadvertently overheads it ail. She is a sha-pely, graceful girl, with some- thing irresistibly fresh and winning in her air; there is always a flash and a sparkle like that of new wine about her. It is the rich wine of life and youth, with health and strength at their untram.melied beat in the fair, quick body. She has a real sea-shell complexion, a. trifle darkened sometimes by sun and wind, but never much injured; wide, velvety, dark-grey eyes, and a wonderful crop of gold-bright ourlis cut short, and rippling evenly all over the fine little head, uninterrupted by any parting from crown to forehead. Now the red-rose lips quiver: He thought me boa-utiful last summer." Then the white teeth set: "Juiiet Ormond of all women!" Again: "He abominates short hair. forsooth!" But here the shining head cresta itself like a bird's—yet, oh, so proudly!—and there are no tears, but a steel-like flash in the lovely eyes that watch Doctor Robert Maturin aa he presently strolls alone across the lawn, lighting a, cigar as he goes, to aid his reflec- tions. Juiiet, Ormond watches him, too, with Mack eyes, lazy yet covetous. Yes, he is well worth winning, this handsome, frank young fellow, so earnest and sincere of heart, with his growing practice and the goodly property his father has left him. For —tell it not in Gat&-the fortune which the 1a.te Caleb Ormond has contrived at last to leave his faecina-tin.g relict is rather a shabby one, though she has skilfully covered all defects as yet. So she begins to weave her spell with "nods and becks and wreathed smiles" for Robert Maturing unwary heart; and indeed the manages to keep him at her side for the next two weeks, an apparently devoted cavalier, but well outside of that chatrmed orbit wherein Kathie Foriladd moves, a "bright, particular star." However, though out-side, some very lin- gering, pathetic, glances are cast over into that circie by this poor, beleaguered disciple of iBsculapius, who yet knows not how to heal himself. "Robert Maturin" It is the voice of a lovely white-haired lady, calling him sharply—an ola friend of his. and also of Kathie Fernald's. She has just intercepted one of those ltftfg, wistful looks with which he has followed that young lady, and stops him in passing. "Robert Maturin, you like Kathie Fernald very much, don't you?" with the abruptness of age and long acquaintance. "I'm afraid I do or did," he admits; then dreamily: "I thought-her sinnply perfect, onoe my very ideal of a most lovely woman. But new she is changed." A long pause. No, Mrs. WooLsan," he finishes at length, impa- tiently, "1. could forgive a woman anything, but this fashion of short hair, that is a folly I despise." "Oh, hush! For shame, to epeak like that of Kathie Fernald's hair!" cries the sweet -1,1 1 o rl tt i n/li r*n,nrut.lT7 14 Tf » vm n -i..j.J, ..I.I./U.L&"u.&J.u. dI .u.J..1')' "'lit: misfortune was no worse. We—her friends- are proud of it, if she is not." "Misfortune!" in blank amazement. Is it possible you do not know why Kathie FcrnaJ.d wears short curls to-day? Let me teU you, then. She was at the Hart- woods' country house last autumn when it burned to the ground. Ah, I see you begin to guesss, but you don't know yet. You have thought it was a whim of hers to follow a. freak of fashion; but, no, there is not a more womanly woman alive than Kathie Fernald, and such a spirit, for ail her sweet face. I remember you have been long away, but I suppose you had hea,ro of this. Well, it so happened that the night of the Are there were only women in the houf-e, not even a manservant on the place, and the fire had made great headway before it was dis- covered at all; still, they had got safely out, and were standing about half dazed, as usual, on such occasions, when Kathie Fer- nald, who had been everywhere and helping everybody, rememhered a young .servant- girl, who was confined to her room by ill. nesa, and had been forgotten in the rush. It wasn't haif a minute before she had snatched a blanket which some one had brought out in the hasty flight, wet in the basin of the fountain near by. wrapped it a.round her, and was off like a flajsh. She went back into the fire-doomed hOUBe-that slight young girl-ilp the smoking stairways, and actually succeeded in dragging the frightened maid down and out into safety. I tell you it was a deed the most courageous man might wed have hesitated to attempt, for the smoke and flameis were dreadful, and the chance of escaping with life bnt narrow. Her lightness and quick strength saved her, though; ghe was not much hurt, after aJl- our brave Kathie—only a few blisters, which healed without sear, her health is so perfect. But her magnificent hair wts ruined—you know how luxuriant it was-bein,g unbound, most of it was burned to a, cirider, and it all had to be cut off close to the skin. It was a trial to her, for she was justly proud of it, that lovely hair; but she bears it bravely, tnough she, too, despises short locks," woman-like, finishing with this sharp thrust at her discomfited companion. A long pause. "Does Juliet Ormond know all thiÛ" he asks .at length, very slowly. Juliet Ormond? &he, too, was at the the time it happened; and with the utter absence of reason which diistfnguish.es some people at such times, she even was selfish enough to ask Kathie if she was going into the burning house again, to just bring out her jewel-case, which was on the dressing-table in her room. Mrs. Hart- wood told me the whole story; she said you should have aeen Kathie's eyes flash at this most idiotic request. I think I see how she looked now," smiHing across at Kathie her- self, who at this moment turns to approa-ch her eagerly, but, seeing who is with her, moves quietly aeide, a look of sudden hauteur dimming the epcvrkle of the sun- shine face. "Of course, Juliet Ormond knows it," goes on Mrs. Woolson; "and I am surprised then pauses, discreetly deciding to say no more, having, with ft woman's intuition, readily divined the whole, situation. So am I surprised," speaks Robert Maturin, quietly, in that pause, that 1 should be eoioh an unmitigated simpleton"; and he turns -away, chew-in«: the cud of eweet and bitter memories," yet with' his whole heart in a g-low of love and admira- tion for Kathie Fernald and her heroic deed. "I never meant you to know it at all," says Kathie herself, between smiles and tears, when, having sougiit her that same evening to plead his cause, he gently touches the soft cropped curls with a few reverently tender words straight from his full heart; "never, after you accepted Juliet Ormond's false estimate of me." But the only punishment she imposes upon him for his harsh judgment is this: &he decrees that he eball wait till the "behy, curls" ha.ve grown larog enough to "do up," before she will bend her bright hea-d to the wreath of "bridal 'bondage"; and so well he loves her, that though he feels even this to be a heavy penance, yet he bears it cheer- fully for her sweet sake.

For Women Folk. HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES I No applicatton 18 better for lustreless ha. than salt. Rub well into the roots of the hair at night, then tie up in a, large hail- kerchief, or wear a nightcap. Brush ou^ the salt in the morning. Several applica- tions will show a marked improvement in the brightness of the hair. Ginger Beer I Five pounds of white sugar, a quarter of a pinit of lemon juice, 5oz. of bruised ginger, 4; gaJIons of water, and a. tables-poontful' of brewors' yeast Boil the ginger in three quarts of water for half a.n hour, then add the ougar and lemon juice, strain and free from pips, also the peel of six lemons grated. St.ra,in all through a cloth. When nearly cold, add the yeaat and a teaspoonful of essence of lemon. Let the whole stand four days, then bottle. It will keep many months. This quantity will moke enough to fill 100 bottles. fbtewed Cucumbers Take lib. cucumbers, Jib. onions, loz. butter, and one tea-spoonful of flour. After peeling the cucumbers and onions, cut them in slices about an eighth of aa inch thick, and fry them in burtter till well browned. Put them .into a saucepan with a quarter-pint of hot water or vegetable broth, Beaton with r and salt; let them stew till quite soft, add-the flour and butter mixed well together, and boil gently for five minutes. r To Crystallise Small Pears I Thinly pajre-fruit, but care must be taken not to remove or break the stalks. For each pound of pears, place Hlb. of loaf sugar in an enamelled-1 i.ned saucepan, with three- quarter of a pint of water. Set it over the Are, with the well-whipped white of an egg added; let it boil Up. and, when ready to run over, pour a. little cold water in to give it a check; but when it rises the second time take it off the fire, and M't aside for a quarter of an hour, daring which the foulness will sink to the bottom, and leave a black scum on the top, which take off gently, and pour the syrup into a vessel very quickly from the sediment. While this operation is proceeding place the pears in some slightly salted boiling water a.nd allow them- to just boil once, then leave them, in the water for twenty minutes; stand pears on a sieve to drain, then pla-ce them in the eyrup, and just bring to the boil. Remove the pears, drain, a,nd sprinkle them, on all sides with icing sugar, until they are quite white. Set them on a. wire rack in a very warm room to slowly dry. Any fruits my be thus crystallised; apricots, pineapples, and cherries are very successful dione in this way.

WELSEMEN IN FORM. Football Tourists Good Win. MASTERTON (New Zealand), Saturday. In fine weather the British Rugby football team opened their tour to-day with a match against a fifteen of Waerarapa. The attend- ance numbered 6,000. and the ground was in good condition. The visitors won the toss, and, playing with great determination, oompletely demoralised their opponents. In the fit half Ponty- Jones scored the first try for them, and then Gibbs got over twice. Neither of these tries was converted. Before the interval arrived 4-itson increased the visitors' lead with a capital try, and Harding was successful with the kick. "At half-time the British side led by fourteen points to nil. In the second half Waerara-pa improved considerably, and, although the visitors still held the upper hand, they were met by "r'Io11.nn rlMn.nf'. "T r ""I'1.1-i.ft"'I.a a/»Ariv1 t.rv for the British team, n which was not con- verted, and towards the end O'Leary scored a penalty goal for the home side. The British side thus won by 1 goal and four tries to one penalty goal. It was a very fast game throughout. Thej British team displayed fine combination in paasilng and kicking, their backs being excel- lent, while their forwards also played admir- ably.

The visitors were victorious by seven g,"als to nil. A large crowd witnessed the play. Considerable uproar arose during the match, the onlookers alleging that the Englishmen had infringed the rules of the game. The referee also found fault with the Englishmen's play, but he subsequently with- drew his remark, the visitors pointing out that they were keeping within the rules of the game as pljived in England. The crowd pek-ed the visitors with stones, but on-ly one of t.he team was hit, sustaining a small bruise on the head. It was only owing to the intervention of the police tha.t the English- men were able to leave the ground without further molest-a.tion.-Reuter. A later meseag-e says that altogether five of the English football team are reported to have been struck by stones, but with one exception only momentarily hurt, the blows not being severe enough to leave a mark.

I He Ceased to Write
He Ceased to Write SCOTTISH LADY OBTAINS. A DIVURCEI Loo-d Dumdas, in Edinburgh on Saturday, h<eaTd the evidence in an action for divorce by Mrs. Madeline Lirndsay Dickson, or Oughters-on, res",ng in FAiiii-burgh, against Mr. Huigii Georgx, Cng-htcraoc. engineer, J ohajmesbnrg. Petitioner said 8hQ was a daughter of a brig-ade surgeoa. in the Indian Army, and was ma.rried to defendant in 1399. Bath she and defendant were at that time connected with the stage. Their married life was quite hqippy, and a child was born in 1901. Some of her husband's friends advised him to go to South Africa., and he did so. He coaged to write to her after a time or send her money, and in January, 1904, she went out to South Africa in quest of her hus,brand, whom she found at Johannesburg, wlhere he was employed at a. mine at a salary of L500 a year. It wae arranged that she should return to this country for the child, and respon- dent gave her a letter to a solicitor in Lon- don, in whose hands he represented that he had placed JS350 to cover witness's expenses. When she reached London she found there was no solicitor of tbte naime mentioned at the address given. A decree was granted.
A HUSBAND'S TRIALS
A HUSBAND'S TRIALS George Bird, a, rifle tester, employed a.t the Small Arms Factory, Bow, was charged on remand at Old-street Police-court on Saturday with ottempting to murder his wife. The evidence on the first occasion was that he stabbed her in the neck. He was said to have been sober, and his wife pro- fessoed herself unable to explain the oauso of the attack. At the renewed hearing the accused husband oalled fellow-employes, who stiid they bad known him as a sober, steady miiwi for twenty years. But they also knew tha.t his wife was frequently intoxicated, ,negloeoted her five children, and was a "nagger." Asked to explain these accusations, she promised to turn over a new leaf; and the magistrate, considering that the evidence against the wife made the case a very exceptional one, decided to suspend judgment for three months, allowing prisoner out on hiis own brvil.
EXCITING MOMENTS I
EXCITING MOMENTS I The story of some exciting' inoments was told at the Thames Polioe-court on Satur- day, when Asoron Salw-ay, Harris Lupinsky, Esther Cheloboliff, Annie Lrapinsky, and Ada Matgnow were charged with being concerned in harbouring beit/woert 601b. and 701b. of saccharine with i-nftent to defraud the Bevenrue. Mr. J. B. Davies, preventive inspector, and Mr. A. W. Oope, eupervisor, it was stated, went to a house in Commercial-road. When Mr. Oope entered a room on the second floor he was, it is alleged, seized by the defendants, who attacked him, amd in the struggle his right hand aad shoulder were badly hurt. MIM. Matzni&w, it vaa said, ran into a front j-ooen and locked the door, a.fter which she threw a large quantity of saccharine out 01 the window, covering the street and many of tihe crowd w'hioh had amlbled. While the woman was so engaged Sal way threw a quantity of saccharine out of the back wiaidow. Luptiinsky threw a. loTig-bladed knife at Mr. (bpe, and also throatened: him. but other officers entered the room. Ada Matssnow wae said to be the owner. The a-oeu&ed were remanded.

WELL-BEHAVED IN PRISONI
WELL-BEHAVED IN PRISON The magistrates at Ta-untoni on Saturday heard tho strange story of a man whose life ia alternately spent in prison and in roam- ing me native hills. The aocused is Robert Porwell, a vigorous-looking man of 35 years. The strange feature of Foxwell's career is that, although crimiuaMy inclined when ftree. his con-duot when he is incarcerated becomes all that oould be desired. He is described as one of the quietest and best belhjaved men ever admitt-ed to the county prison. Upon his release from prison recently he was again arrested for aaeged housebreak- ing and committed to the Somerset Assizes.

Secretly Wedded P I GOULD-SAGAN ROMANCE I According to the "Now York American" on Sunday Mr. Bttdenbender, Justice of t.he I Peace at Hoboken, New Jersey, married I Aladam-e Anna Goufld, the divorced wife of Count Boni do Castellane, to Prineo Helie do Sagan, j list before they sailed for Europe on April 11 aboard different steamships. The i wedding, besides being secret, Mr. Buden- bender admitted, was also very cloee to a miclnig-ht marriage. Everything had been arranged eeveal days in advance (eays the "Daily Telegraph"), with the idea of making the marriage as late as possible. About ten o'clock at night, Madame Gould and Prince Helie. who were at the Hotel St Regis, slipped through the kitchen and entered a waiting vehicle. They were driven directly to IDoboken, where the justice was waiting, with two witnesses, whom he provided. It is noteworthy that the "Now York Wold" on Sunday publiscs the statement that Madame Anna Gould told her relatives at the fa/miiy conrneil in New York that she intended to ma.rry the Prince, despite their, <xpl)'os'ition, and that her brother promptly detailed detectives to watch both parties. j The brother, under the terms of their father's will, can largely control Madame 1 Gould's allowance in case of a marriage contrary to his sanction. j
