Chattanooga's Chamber of Commerce
is actively preparing for celebrating the
openi ng of the upper Tennessee to steam
boat transportation. The time for the
celebration has not been definitely fixed,
but soon will be. At a recent meeting of
the Chamber, Capt. J. F Shipp, who ac-
cympanied Colonel Barlow, engineer
in charge of the improvement, on the
trial trip tbr >ugb the canal, gave an in
tereating acconnt of it, and said: "I look
upon the canal as a great snooess. We
can say safely that, as the river now is,
it is safe for boats six months in the year,
and by some farther lmproveme ats it
will be possib’e for oar boats to ran all
the year.”

The Other Man’s Wife.
A MOST CHARMING STORY OF EARLY LOVE
BY JOHN STRANGE WiNlER.
CHAPTER I.
“We must ail die, and not the old alone,
The youLg have no exemption from that doom.”
) (The 'chill of death reigned over the
Bishop’s home Episcopal Palace at Blank-
bampton, the awe of a great change had
fallen over the old city. For on the pre
vicus day, Edward, by Divine Providence,
Lord Bishop of the Diocese, had been
carried to his last long home in the
Cloisters of bis Cathedral Church.
The townsfolks had scarce as yet begun
to wonder who would be the new Bishop.
They were full of the quite scholarly
graces of the departed prolate—they had
forgotten how often they hadblarred
him for not having been more prominent
among them, for beiDg so gentle, so full
or humility ana all those meek qualities
which, as a kind of rep to on; consciences,
we make a point of attribntirg to Christ,
and which almoBt universally we utterly
despise in the man! Yes, they had for
gotten all the irritations, the petty irrita
tions of the part; their spiritual head,
sanctified by great sufferings, had become
to them a dear saint in glory, whose
blameless life among them wcu’d be a
fright hereon to guide them on that
daik road which we must ail iread one
day.
Perhaps there Is no irony so caustic as
the iroDy of events! A great spiritual
lord was looming In the distance, the not
far distal ce, who would be in most things
wbat the- good folk or Biacli hampton hsd
wished in him who had just loft them; a
1 ig,heavy jowl* d man oi great dignity of
bearing, po: den us at d arrogant, a pat
ron of Christianity rather than a servant
of Cbrisl; a man w ho would make a ruie
of being promirent among his people,
who wcuid be their superior in things of
earth as well as in things cl Heaven, a
man who would seldrof the*® be affable
ard if he did vco' er Ten Xh 'j make all
Beholders wish fti^- ? with a ca ' n,r
uot, a man of the
Really, James, you have surprised me.
Certainly another cover must be laid. He
will probably stay to luncheon.”
And when she was left alone, Lady Gas
coigne knew both past and present as
clearly as if she had been Dr. Trevor
himself—she knew why so many men
who had loved her beautiful daughter
had ridden away hopeless and disappoint
ed, she saw it all plainly enou h now and
she went straight past the boudoir door
to her own room and never pat in an ap
pearance until the lunch boll rang
Meantime Lady Constance had gone
unsuspiciously to her visitor and found,
instead of a portly old Bistop, an eager
eyed, broad shouldered man who held out
two trembling hands atd came to meet
her with two eager words upon his lips—
‘ My darling—my darling ” and for an
swer Lady Constance went to him with
out any pretence of shyneas, like a child
to its mother.
‘-I did not know who it was,” she said,
with a gladdening in her v,fica.
And by and bye when her ladyship
came in, which she did with outstretched
hand. Lady Constance cried, “Mother,
you knew!”
“James told me,” she answered, and
then she looked rather hard at her daugh
ter and he d out her band.
“I am so happy, Mother,” Lady Con -
stance whispered with a blush.
“Lady Goscolgne—” began the Bishop,
when she stopped him.
“You need say nothing—I see it all,”
Bhe said. ‘ You shall talk to L^rd Gas
coigne presently. Will you give me your
arm down the stairs? ’
It was not usual for them to go down
with ceremony at that hour, and Lady
Gascoigne never felt the need of an
arm at any time, but during the few
steps they took together, the Bishop un
derstood that it was all light and that
his new honors made the way smooth
and easy for him.
And the Bishop gave the iuteil'gent
James a couple of sovereigns bt for-, he
left the heu-ie, to the furtuer enlighten
ment of that functionary.
