the shock of hay If he had concealed him ¬ self in the barn for some specific pur ¬ pose would he court detection for the sake of playing a prank or to gratify a personal spite Hardly The hay badly piled and undermined had ooeyed the laws of gravitation Possibly in the ardor of eavesdropping- - the Greek had displaced the shock unwittingly He had studied the habits of Jap and his best girl and wishing to learn the exact condition of affairs in the house had turned his knowledge of sociology to good account Very slimy as Jap ob- served ¬ An Anglo Saxon blessed with the Greeks upbringing would have scouted such methods but the secretivg nature of Demetrius stimulated by ter ror of Burlington accounted satisfac- torily for everything The fellow was an out-and-o- ut poltroon Mark Gerard dined alone with Nancy and me He was in no mood to talk and g ulped down his dinner in gloomy silence Since we parted in the stable yard his manner had entirely changed From his gestures rather than from his words I inferred that he was intensely nervous I laid this to the charge of De- metrius ¬ and unduly irritable Nancy too seemed depressed and abstracted She replied in monosyllables to my few questions Nancy go to your mother said Ger- ard ¬ as the coffee was brought in I wish to talk with Mr Livingston We imshed our chairs from the table and lighted cigars Demetrius said Gerard is not a coward 1 merely bowed having resolved for the future to curb my tongue He proposes Gerard spoke slowly watching me narrowly between half closed eyes he proposes to take en- tire ¬ charge of of this madman You He rolled up carefully the loosened wrapper of his cigar and I chafing at the delay forgot my good resolutions and blurted out What disposition does he make v of me -

takes me by surprise Surprise the word but feebly ex ¬ presses the condition of ny feelings Had Demetrius dared to make this sug ¬ gestion in the teeth of what had oc- curred ¬ in the cave And if so in the name of the Sphinx to what purpose knowing as he must know that I should refuse to become a party to his infamous scheme Was master in col- lusion ¬ with man Xo I couldnt be- lieve ¬ that What then The scoundrel was a consummate judge of character and he had had abundant opportunity to study the idiosyncrasies of Hugo Livingston He probably counted upon my promise of secrecy and by Jupi- ter ¬ the truth flashed upon me counted further upon my opposition and my subsequent dismissal from the service of Gerard I would try and balk him If Demet rius said I lightly is in the house I should like to talk this over with him Demetrius returned at once to Mark How far is it to the island I asked Not more than two miles I rose to my feet Mr Gerard I must see Demetrius to ¬ night Within two hours you shall have your answer He nodded and puffed at his cigar As you please he said indifferently The immortal Lincoln said that you could fool a part of the people all the time and all the people part of the time but that no man could fool all the people all the time In considering the relations which existed between Mark Gerard and the Greek this piece of wisdom bubbled up out of my memory and lent an agree- able ¬ effervescence to my reflections Gerard was a brilliant man in his way but I had come to the conclusion that Demetrius was the stronger mentally of the two and exercised a potent in ¬ fluence upon his master I still clung to my theory in regard to the Greeks cowardice otherwise I should hardly have trusted myself alone with him He had no intention I was convinced of meeting or nursing Burlington He was fooling Gerard He should not I decided fool Hugo Livingston The night was perfect an idyllic night for lovers The moon lolled lazily U lfxl 1 i 1 Mr fcSr He followed his master rospectfully into the house in the sapphire heavens The air was soft and odorous languid with the per ¬ fume of a million flowers And the voice of spring whispered her old old story Where are you going It was Nancy She flitted towards me a slender Naiad like figure il ¬ lumined by the silvery beams Who would not wish to be abroad such a night as this Miss Nancy Im off for a walk Ill go with you she replied Mam- ma ¬ is asleep and my father her voice hardened doesnt want me I hesitated If you dont want me too My scruples fled Im going to the island Miss Nancy Perhaps you would like to see Mark She made no reply and we started side by side not a yard between us In silence we paced down the path to the sea and descended the steps which led tb the sands I forgot Demetrius for- got ¬ everything save the one intoxicat ¬ ing fact that I was walking alone be- neath ¬ the stars with the woman I loved But what I forgot Nancy bore in mind Mr Livingston she said in confi- dential ¬ tones I have watched for this opportunity I want to ask you what I have not the heart to ask mamma and what I wont ask my father Is it something I can answer I think so Is it something I ought to answer Miss Nancy If you have my welfare at heart she whpered softly you will tell me the truth all the truth about this mysterious affair Hitherto Mr Liv ¬ ingston Ive taken persons and things as I found them Effects have inter- ested ¬ me rather than causes There is father for instance who has lived apart from us all these years I accepted that without inquiry but now it seems odd Where was the necessity The reason the cause must be a strong one Then again there is this mad socialist What is he doing- - at large And what is the nature of his grudge against us I dont ask these questions out of idle curiosity These questions Miss Nancy I can not answer You cannot or yon will not She spoke impatiently I hesitated What should I say Im old enough to know these secrets if secrets they be and strong enough to share my Anothers burdens Poor dear mamma how old she looked to ¬ night You can lighten your mothers bur v dens very materia ily by not attempting to shoulder them We paced on together but Nancy had moved farther from me as if repelled by my discretion When she spoke her voice had lost its warmth I shall not bother you again said she The fiend tempted me to reply Mj- - own secrets Miss Nancy I would share with you willingly One of them you surprised this rnoming I could not possibly have selected a less opportune time for such a bald statement Trulj- - when love enters mens hearts their wits often leave their heads Nancy with a womans consideration pointed out a loophole of escape Mr Livingston is the tide coming in or going- - out But my blood was up and the fever of spring in my veins Hang the tide I replied The tide of my life is setting towards you so strongly that I can stem it no longer Nancy sweet Nancy I love you A tremulous sigh escaped her lips I love you I repeated with a lovers foolish iteration I love you TO BE CONTINUED EMPEROR AND TAILOR Danger to Nicholas in 1S44 xVn Inci ¬ dent Which AVas Suspicions June 6 1844 This was the principal racing day and the course was exceed- ingly ¬ crowded Emporor Nicholas magnificent donation to the Ascot turf had become generally known and the reception of the rojal cortege was cheering vocifererous During the day some few attempts were made at getting up a demonstration of unpopularity but they failed signally and a ragged boy was arrested carrying about for gratuitous distribution a circular got up by the Poles wherein the assassina- tion ¬ of the emperor before he escaped from England was distinctly threat- ened ¬ and recommended The police commissioners showed one to me and every possible precau- tion ¬ was of course adopted by sprink- ling ¬ a number of constables in plain clothes among the masses on the course but I confess that I felt some- what ¬ uneasy know ing how easy it is for any enthusiast or desperado who is content to sacrifice his own life to take that of another About this time there was also an at- tempt ¬ b3 a mad or hot brained Pole to enter the emperors room This ob- ject ¬ he purposed to effect b3r imperson- ating ¬ a tailor from whom a pair of trousers had been ordered for his im ¬ perial majest3 ne offered Snip a large sum of mone3 if he would allow him to deliver these in his stead and the latter suspecting something wrong handed him over to the police who on search ¬ ing him found secreted about his per ¬ son a long thin knife or stiletto This incident did not tend to diminish our anxiet3 or sense of responsibilit3 for the personal security of our imperial guest and in spite of the frank and princely agreement of his manner and the ga3reties to which his visit gave rise I for one wished him with all my heart safe back again on the other side of tht channel Cornhill Magazine VICTORIAS CORONATION OATH Questions and Answers in the Royal Ceremony Queen Victorias Coronation Boll is described b3 Florence Ha3ward who copies from the official records the fol lowing- -

Because a doctor in the employ of thecity told her to be vaccinated instead ofmarried a fair young-- maiden of At-lanta

Ga jilted her fiancee on the eveof their marriage and received the virusin her arm instead As a consequencethe jilted lover is going- - to sue the cityfor damages for the loss of his brideFor several days past a force of physi-cians

¬

and policemen has been visitingevery home office shop and store in thecity vaccinating- - by force when neces-sary

gaged to the maiden and loves youngdrear i was not marred until the doctorcame upon the scene In his vaccinat ¬

ing i ounds he met the young womanwho demurred to being- - vaccinated becausij she said she was going to get mar-ried

¬

The old gentleman says the doc-tor

¬

dissuaded her from getting mar¬

ried saying-- that it would be better forher to get vaccinated than marriedThe girl finally consented to be vac-cinated

¬

and when the aged lover re ¬

turned to his promised bride he founda cool reception She flatly refused tomarry him giving as a reason that thedoctor had advised her that vaccinationwas better than marriage All he couldsay availed nothing She was obdurateand declined to marry

I am the sufferer the city is respon ¬

sible and it must pay me damages anda good sum too Cavaleri said

ANGELS UNAWARES

A figure by my fireside stayedPlain was her garb and veiled her face

A presence mystical she madeNor changed her attitude nor place

Did I neglect my household waysFor pleasure wrought of pen or book

She sighed a murmur of dispraiseAt which methought the rafters shook

Me young Delight did often winMy patient limits to outgo

Thereafter when I entered inThat shrouded guest did threatening

showThe snows of life to chill me fell

Where many a gracious mate lay deadAnd moved my heart to break the spell

By that ungracious phantom laidNow who art thou that didst not smile

When I my maddest jest devisedWho art thou stark and grim the while

That men my tune and measure prized

Without her pilgrim staff she roseHer weeds of darkness cast aside

More dazzling than Olympian snowsThe beauty that those weeds did hide

Most like a solemn symphonyThat lifts the heart from lowly things

The voice with which she spoke to meDid loose contrition at its springs

O duty visitor divineTake all the wealth my house affords

But make thy holy methods mineSpeak to me thy Surpassing words

Neglected once and undiscernedI pour my homage at thy feet

Till I thy sacred law have learnedNor joy nor life can be completeJulia Ward Howe in N Y Independent

CHAPTER VI ContinuedAiy tongue as usual had outstripped

my halting brain I was still in mysalad days and a novice in the art ofdialogue

I suppose said Gerard carelesslythat you have fallen in love with

NancyThe question took me so completely

by surprise that my stupid face flushedscarlet I began to realize that thisman whose bodily presence was so con-temptible

¬

was conversationally speak-ing

¬

dandling me in his armsI dont blame 3rou continued Ge ¬

rard in his most matter-of-fa- ct tonesShe is a pretty girl and very intelli-

gent¬

It would interest me to knowwhether er she

Xo she doesntThank you I like to be posted Xo

no dont frown I dare swear thatshe will say yes and you may live towish it had been no

He had dropped his tone of banter andspoke gloomily in sour raucous ac-cents

¬

This man had achieved muchthat the world prizes His keen brainand extraordinary acumen had bornehim triumphant upon the top wave ofsuccess Now that he had brought hisheavily freighted vessel into safe har-borage

¬

he had leisure to read the logand estimate the wTear and tear Iwatched him as he leaned back wearilyagainst the well padded cushions ofthe buggy and made a small calcula-tion

¬

Divide wealth as many millionsas 3 ou please by health subtract timeand what is left Answer the man be-side

¬

me haggard wizened prematuregray

So after all he had seen the com-plication

¬

of my falling in love withNancy had counted the probability asgain an extra rivet to bind me to hisservice What a puppet I had been

Im sorry the boy is from homehe muttered I should have enjoyedseeing him Demetrius is overcautious

a fault 011 the right sideHe asked me innumerable questions

about the lad displaying his talent forcross examination and with it his re-

markable¬

love for his son Mrs Gerardit appeared had been kind enough togive me more credit than I deservedand her husband expressed his appreci-ation

¬

of my efforts in a characteristicfashion

You are not giving me value re ¬

ceived he said brusquely but youvedone all I asked and more

I wondered whether Mrs Gerard inher letters had mentioned my excur-sion

¬

into Cupids domain and answeredthe question in the negative

Im a generous man Gerard con ¬

tinued with that curious inflection inhis voice which I had remarked when hehad pressed upon me his rarest winesand my stepdaughter 5 011 have found

out of course that she is my step-daughter

¬

will be handsomely dow-ered

¬

I dare say I shall give her a pic ¬

ture or two that Constable perhapsifIf I repeatedIf she marries the right fellow

TVhat I asked myself did he meanThat there was meaning behind everyword he spoke I could no longer doubtWhy did he remind me of a spiderWhy humiliating reflection did Icompare myself to a fly These ques ¬

tions were adequately answered laterOur talk for the present was over Thelights of the house were in sight Thefamiliar roar of the surf became louderand louder and the dogs a brace ofhandsome bloodhounds bayed melodi-ously

¬

By Jupiter said Gerard sharply--bhat is the voice of Demetrius

I strained my ears in vain but a largefigure loomed suddenly in the fore- -

groundThat you Demetrius my compan-

ion¬

shoutedYes came the measured response

it is IThe Greek however had no intention

ot stating his business in my presenceHe assisted his master to descend fromthe high butrerv and followed him re- -

ness an that mads him an tickles meJap laugiied loudly 1 had known for

some time that he and Demetrius wereunfriendly

So he scared youYes sir Ye see he bosses it around

the house but Im the chief here andont allow no monkey business on mypremises Well sir after you leftMary the housemaid come out an shean me had a leetle howdy do ShesDanish is Mairy an not one o yer scaryones Why

Get along with your story Jap Imin a hurry

Mary was tellin me about the doinswith the gentleman as was hurt angivin me the hull song an dance

Where were you JapThe honest fellow blushed By the

flickering light of the stable lantern Icould see his freckled face blazing

We was in the hay mow he said re-

luctantly¬

Where you generallj sit ehYes he admitted with a sheepish

grin Mary likes the smell o the hayGo on JapDye think he demanded eagerly

tnat ther Greek was on to the racketo me an Mary sittin in the hay mowGosh I guess he was stuck on Maryhisself Whv that accounts for themilk in the cocoanut Of course Wellsir when she got through tellin mehow the pore feller couldnt speak nor

rmove andShe went into all those detailsWhy yes an she had it straight

from Miss Nancy too Wimmen folksmust talk or theyd naterally go crazyWell sir shed got at last ter the endo the yarn an Id told her good --by anvi as wavin her adoo as she stood in thedoorway when all of a suddent a bigshock o hay comes a tumblin down anketches me right twixt wind an waterIt come nigh killin me an Mary tooWhy the girl most split herself a laffinAn Mr Livingston his pleasant voicehardened that ther Greek damn hissoul done it

I expressed my astonishmentHe done it outer meanness I never

suspicioned the cuss know in that thehay was kinder poorly piled an thatId bin keerless about the handlin ofit But jest before you drev up I hap ¬

pened ter start out fer the house anthen changed 1113 mind an walkedaround the barn Well sir as I comearound that ther corner I saw the Greekstandin like a statoo on a pedestialWhere did he come from Why fromthe mow o course He inped me offter the house an then crawled outHe must ha know n that Danish Maryan I was friens an he calkilated termake an everlastin scarecrow outer mebefore her the son of a gum I droppedonter his racket rigilt awaj the secondI seen him He come there a purposeId a thumped him good if it cost methis place but the dogs begun barkinthe Greek he speaks to em as if mo-lasses

¬

candy wouldnt melt in his mouthan the next thing-- I knew he was talkin with Mr Gerard But cuss him Illgit even

But Jap how do you know he wasreally in the mow

Why sir when I come up with thelantern I see the hayseed and stickergrass on his coat

I bade Mr Byers good night andwalked thoughtfully to the house Mydeductions in regard to this affair dif-fered

¬

materially from those of honestJap I could not believe that De ¬

metrius had willfully set rolling-- theshock of hay If he had concealed him ¬

self in the barn for some specific pur ¬

pose would he court detection for thesake of playing a prank or to gratifya personal spite Hardly The haybadly piled and undermined had ooeyedthe laws of gravitation Possibly in theardor of eavesdropping- - the Greek haddisplaced the shock unwittingly Hehad studied the habits of Jap and hisbest girl and wishing to learn the

exact condition of affairs in the househad turned his knowledge of sociologyto good account Very slimy as Jap ob-served

¬

An Anglo Saxon blessed withthe Greeks upbringing would havescouted such methods but the secretivgnature of Demetrius stimulated by terror of Burlington accounted satisfac-torily for everything The fellow wasan out-and-o- ut poltroon

Mark Gerard dined alone with Nancyand me He was in no mood to talkand g ulped down his dinner in gloomysilence Since we parted in the stableyard his manner had entirely changedFrom his gestures rather than from hiswords I inferred that he was intenselynervous I laid this to the charge of De-metrius

¬

and unduly irritable Nancytoo seemed depressed and abstractedShe replied in monosyllables to my fewquestions

Nancy go to your mother said Ger-ard

¬

as the coffee was brought in Iwish to talk with Mr Livingston

We imshed our chairs from the tableand lighted cigars

Demetrius said Gerard is not acoward

1 merely bowed having resolved forthe future to curb my tongue

He proposes Gerard spoke slowlywatching me narrowly between halfclosed eyes he proposes to take en-

tire¬

charge of of this madman YouHe rolled up carefully the loosened

wrapper of his cigar and I chafing atthe delay forgot my good resolutionsand blurted out

What disposition does he make v ofme -

to Europe at once in your charge MrsGerard needs complete change the boymust see something of the world andNancy of course will be counted inWhat do you think of my plan

Your plan I said drylj-- takes meby surprise

Surprise the word but feebly ex¬

presses the condition of ny feelingsHad Demetrius dared to make this sug ¬

gestion in the teeth of what had oc-

curred¬

in the cave And if so in thename of the Sphinx to what purposeknowing as he must know that Ishould refuse to become a party to hisinfamous scheme Was master in col-

lusion¬

with man Xo I couldnt be-

lieve¬

that What then The scoundrelwas a consummate judge of characterand he had had abundant opportunityto study the idiosyncrasies of HugoLivingston He probably counted uponmy promise of secrecy and by Jupi-ter

¬

the truth flashed upon me countedfurther upon my opposition and mysubsequent dismissal from the serviceof Gerard I would try and balk him

If Demet rius said I lightly isin the house I should like to talk thisover with him

Demetrius returned at once toMark

How far is it to the island I askedNot more than two miles

I rose to my feetMr Gerard I must see Demetrius to¬

night Within two hours you shall haveyour answer

He nodded and puffed at his cigarAs you please he said indifferently

The immortal Lincoln said that youcould fool a part of the people all thetime and all the people part of thetime but that no man could fool allthe people all the time

In considering the relations whichexisted between Mark Gerard and theGreek this piece of wisdom bubbled upout of my memory and lent an agree-able

¬

effervescence to my reflectionsGerard was a brilliant man in his waybut I had come to the conclusion thatDemetrius was the stronger mentallyof the two and exercised a potent in¬

fluence upon his master I still clungto my theory in regard to the Greekscowardice otherwise I should hardlyhave trusted myself alone with himHe had no intention I was convincedof meeting or nursing Burlington Hewas fooling Gerard He should not Idecided fool Hugo Livingston

The night was perfect an idyllicnight for lovers The moon lolled lazily

Mr fcSr

He followed his master rospectfully into thehouse

in the sapphire heavens The air wassoft and odorous languid with the per¬

fume of a million flowers And thevoice of spring whispered her old oldstory

Where are you goingIt was Nancy She flitted towards

me a slender Naiad like figure il¬

lumined by the silvery beamsWho would not wish to be abroad

such a night as this Miss Nancy Imoff for a walk

Ill go with you she replied Mam-ma

¬

is asleep and my father her voicehardened doesnt want me

I hesitatedIf you dont want me too

My scruples fledIm going to the island Miss

Nancy Perhaps you would like to seeMark

She made no reply and we startedside by side not a yard between us Insilence we paced down the path to thesea and descended the steps which ledtb the sands I forgot Demetrius for-got

¬

everything save the one intoxicat ¬

ing fact that I was walking alone be-

neath¬

the stars with the woman Iloved But what I forgot Nancy bore inmind

Mr Livingston she said in confi-

dential¬

tones I have watched for thisopportunity I want to ask you whatI have not the heart to ask mamma andwhat I wont ask my father

Is it something I can answerI think soIs it something I ought to answer

Miss NancyIf you have my welfare at heart

she whpered softly you will tellme the truth all the truth about thismysterious affair Hitherto Mr Liv ¬

ingston Ive taken persons and thingsas I found them Effects have inter-ested

¬

me rather than causes There isfather for instance who has lived apartfrom us all these years I acceptedthat without inquiry but now it seemsodd Where was the necessity Thereason the cause must be a strong oneThen again there is this mad socialistWhat is he doing- - at large And whatis the nature of his grudge against usI dont ask these questions out of idlecuriosity

These questions Miss Nancy I cannot answer

You cannot or yon will notShe spoke impatiently I hesitated

What should I sayIm old enough to know these secrets

if secrets they be and strong enoughto share my Anothers burdens Poordear mamma how old she looked to ¬

nightYou can lighten your mothers bur

v

dens very materia ily by not attemptingto shoulder them

We paced on together but Nancy hadmoved farther from me as if repelledby my discretion When she spoke hervoice had lost its warmth

I shall not bother you again saidshe

The fiend tempted me to replyMj-- own secrets Miss Nancy I would

share with you willingly One of themyou surprised this rnoming

I could not possibly have selected aless opportune time for such a baldstatement Trulj- - when love entersmens hearts their wits often leavetheir heads

Nancy with awomans considerationpointed out a loophole of escape

Mr Livingston is the tide coming inor going- - out

But my blood was up and the fever ofspring in my veins

Hang the tide I replied The tideof my life is setting towards you sostrongly that I can stem it no longerNancy sweet Nancy I love you

A tremulous sigh escaped her lipsI love you I repeated with a lovers

foolish iteration I love youTO BE CONTINUED
