Bert was with them. He bad taken a sudden fancy to his 'own home of late, and while usually} leaving his father and Beatrice to thelr tete-a-tete dinner, and for and hour or two of happy solitude afterward, he had formed the habit of joining them at about nine o'- clock, for an hour of talk before bedtime. "Dad, going after that Kreutz- mann thing?" the son asked. Bea- trice looked hopefully at her hus- band, from the luxurious couth where she was deep in pillows Any subject of interest that those two could find in common she found herself seizing with fervor and hope in these days Bert's attitude was distressing his father deeply; every day, every hour, of his cheer- ful idling and wasting was exas- perating to the older man, and un- til the boy established himself somewhere, doing something, his presence was always a possible source of friction and consequently a cause of anxiety to Beatrice, "The boys at the office will make a try for it," Hugh answer- ed, lowering his hook, glancing over at his son, from his deep red Jeather chair by the fire, and ar- resting his book, on the way back, for a smile at Beatrice. , "And you too, Hugh!" she sald guickly and jealously. He laughed at her tone. "What would I want of fifty thousand dollars?" he asked mild- ) ly. ¥ uot, it isn't the money, Hugh!" Beatrice exclaimed ,with her char- acteristic eager animation. "But the fun of winning! And then we'd have to go to California, wouldn't we?"

The riding academy was right next door, and I used to see Carter Merritt riding around the ring and jumping. And then afterward I'd see him in that bright yellow car--" "He drank," Hugh contributed briefly, as she paused. "Yes, I know he did," Beatrice felt. .and chilled. ~ For some reason Hugh seemed dis- pleased. "Was he--had he been d when he was killed?" she ventured. / goo 311 "Coming. home from the old country club," Hugh assented with a nod. "Was he married, Hugh?" "Married, and had two children.

One of those men who make friends everywhere! He had the most wonderful smile, I rememper ~-well, it was just Bert's smile." "Yes, he was like Bert." Hugh sald it shortly, unemotionally. "And Bert makes friends every- where, t00," Beatrice went on, enthusiastically, "After all, we oughtn't to judge a nature like that, Hugh. Wherever he goes he's spoiled and adored and madev much of--your mother just wor- ships him." "Did he take you to the lecture this morning?" Hugh asked abruptly after a while. "Who, Bert?" Beatrice counter- ed surprisedly. For from his ab- sent expression she had supposed his thoughts to have wandered far away from his son. ""Bert."' "Oh yes. Didn't I tell you at dinner? He drove me In the clos- ed car, and I came straight back to bed, and he was just like a girl--" Beatrice broke off to laugh, "Just like a girl about helping me," she resumed. "He hung up my coat and put my hat away, and when Nelly came in he was trying to fold up the big cover to my bed, 1 wasn't one bit tired; I don't know when I have ever laughed so much in my life. It was a silly sort of lecture about Indian dialects, and Bert began to make up a dialet of his own, on the side, and of course, yau know, when you can't laugh ?--8eatrice explained, with her ruffled satiny head dropped on one side, and her eyes full of laughter at the mere memory of it "You can go to California any ! ime _that you want to, Bee", ho | -- + in i rn said.

PROTEST AGAINST ELEMENTS 1S MADE FOR LOSS OF SHIP te ET Which Caused Vessel : to Sink © Halifax, N. S., Mar. 23.--A quaint description of the loss of the Nova Scotia schooner Mayotte more than a year ago, while bound for Porto Rico, and the rescue of her crew by the Canadian steamer Pathfinder, is con- ments recorded by the Boston Insur- ance Company as follows: : "By this public instrument of pro- test be it known and made manifest to all whom it doth or may concern that on the 2nd day of February in the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and twenty-eight, be- fgre Cecil H.

Himmelman and requires me to ex- tend his said protest, and with the said Jaseph A. Himmelman came William Decoursey, mate, George Myra, and Albenus Helstrom, sea- men, all belonging to the said ship, who did severally, duly and solemnly declare and state as follows, that is 0 say: "That on the 27th day of January, last, the said ship being then tight, staunch and strong, well manned, victualled, equipped and provided with all things necessary and essen- tial for a ship of her burthen on her intended voyage, and being laden with a cargo of dry and pickled fish, they, the said appearers and the rest ©f the crew, set sail in the said vessel from and out of the Port of Lunen- burg, bound on a voyage from thence to the Port of Ponce, in the island of Porto Rico.

"No," said Beatrice subsiding, "but it would be such fun to have you win it!" '"I'l1 try for it," Bert suggested, "and take you along if I win, el!" "I wish you would--no, not take me along," she said, laughing, "but really try for it." 'And she across at his father for sympathy. But Hugh was looking into the fire, with an odd expres- sion on his face, and did not meet ther eyes. There was affection enough, but there seemed to be little sympathy between father and son. 'When Bert had gone to bed, still connecting Hugh's serious look with the poy, she spoke of him somewhat uncertainly: "He is lazy, Hugh, and he does- n't seem to have settled down yet. But his mother's 'death, coming Just--he was telling me yesterday 'm--=just when he was beginning to discover how much he loved her, | and then those years in.
