RANKEILOR‘S DIAMOND. BY CABRUL KIXG I was lying lazil swung in the cool limb of one of the great trees in the com- und. I was realising, somewhat uncom- ortably, the condition of my finances, and in my hammock, which i scribed a sweep with his arm, passing the rem. hung from a giant Officers‘ quarters, to the left. “ And that leads 3”â€"Only for an instant did I stand with bent brows ; then, as if”): ‘ brainâ€"wave' had flashed from the one to the f - I“ l kthe situation “Mel . other, we both exclaimed at once : “ Good izrfgggz: low: 310., to belief: an): gracious !

The privilege of playing guinea l, in Ashton’s rooms, with much )etter players than myself, and the not very heavy book on half-a-dozen sporting events, had combined towards the rapid result, as I could not help ruefully ac nowledging. As I mused, I became suddenly aware of a laughing face looking down into my ham. mock. Rankeilor, the captain of my com- pany, had swung himself noiselessly into the tree, and perched astride a rough limb that swayed alongside of mine. “\Vcll, Camp- bell,” was his gay greeting, “ you are enjoy- ing the dolce far made in the shade. I am just released from duty." “You are mistaken about the dolce," I replied. “ I am tasting the bitter, not the “sweet do~nothing," and shall have to taste it for some time to come.” “ I have been a bit remorseful over you, lad,” he said, speaking more gravely than was his wont, and without looking at me, scraping down gray fragments of lichen from the trunk of the old tree. “I have not for- I have been foolish enough myself; but I had no right to drag you into a like scrape. " “ Nonsense, Rankeilor l" I said hastily. “ I was just charging myself with moral supiueuess when you came upon me so sad- denlyfâ€"resolving to pull myself together, and resist even sixpcnny Nap in future l” He smiled his bright sunny smile. “ All right, lad. I’ll back you up.â€"-â€"1 am afraid I need not say what I came to sayâ€"to ask, rather. You could not lend me a tenner for two days?” I shook my head regretfully. “ 1 am completely cleaned out, Rankeilorâ€"not a rn cc left. And, what is worse, Ashton holds one or two 10113, which he must hold till next pay.” " Ashton holds them,” he repeated, a quick inipatientfrown crossing his features. “ Then you positively have not a single coin to throw at a fellow, Campbell ‘3” “ Not one, Raukeilor. I am awfully sorry; but”â€" “ Oh, never mind,” be interrupted, with ready kindness. “ I shall have plenty in a day or two, and may be able to give you a liftâ€"who knows '2” He reachede to the limb above, to steady himself for an elastic spring downwards. “ Hallo ! \Vhat’s come of your big rose diamond ‘2”I asked, looking at the empty setting of the ring he always wore on the little finger of his left hand. He, too, looked at the empty ring, and although he laughed, I saw that he had ehan ed colour, and his laugh, to my car, who new all his moods, bore an inflection of pain or vexation. “ Iâ€"shnll have it reset in two days at the furthest,” he answered. “ And I mean to make the Setting more secure.” W'ith a nod he sprang down, and vanished. I wondered idly why he had. shown some little confusion or annoyance at my question. The ring was a lady’s ringâ€"a large, exceed- ineg beautiful rose diamond, set «between two opals. Of course he was bantercd un. sparingly about it by his brother-officers, As soon as he had completely vanished, I threw down the trowel, and prepared to follow above-ground, when a single dazzling l point of light glittered like a star from ; amidst the dis laced earth fallen from the ' trowel, where had thrown it down. \Vith astrange, sinking feeling of genuine dismay l at my heart, I stooped, and picked upâ€"Ranâ€" keilor’s diamond I I had not time then, however, to speculate. Petersen was .al- 3 ready shouting, his voice muffled and indis tinct, as from a distance. I rolled the precious stone in acorner of my handker- ‘ chief, and sprang away to follow the man’s - progress. I replied to everyshout by stamps ing violently on the ground. As we had feared, we were led directly to the ‘ fort ,’ where all the moneys of the garrison were 1: packed and stacked from floor to ceiling. I What was worse, before the faint muffled ’ voice had ceased to lead me forward, I stood l within two or three yards of the back wall of the forts ! Evidently the tunnel was quite near completion : a sin le night’s hard work, a brick or two remove from the wall and the excavators would be richly reward- ed ! men, among whom I distin uished Captains Ashton and Fordyce, stood y the entrance. Plainly, they had been watching our move- ments, and must have thought them suspic- ious. ' Obeying a swift impulse, I lifted my handkerchief and slipped the jewel into my ' month, where it lay " rolled like a sweet morsel under my tongue.” I saw that Cap- tain Fordyce held the trowel in his hand, and Captain Ashton had just laid down the pickaxe. ‘ ~ ' “ Campbell ! You, Campbell ! It can’t be 1 possible ‘2” exclaimed Ashton, in amazed crescendo. “ Who would have thought or i believed it! I should sooner have named! any other man in the garrison, had I been asked to pick out theâ€"the delinquent.” “ The delinquent l” I repeated haughtily. “ How dare you use the word to me 2 I I have been discovering a bold and daring at- tempt to rob the fortâ€"an attempt that has come dangerously near to success too l Anqther night’s work would have finished he -â€"--- “ What did I tell you, Fordyce ?” inter- upted Ashton, shaking his head. “ I told you, when we discovered this tunnel yesterday, and resolved to watch it, that theâ€"the excavators would be sure to wear abold front, and proclaim themselves ex-, plorers only 3" l “ I will not submit to this 2" I cried with ' intense anger. I never was a patient man, and Ashton’s half-compassionate,half-cou- ; temptuous tone drove me wild. “ You exceed your authority, Ashton ! As for Petersen, he was ‘ obeying orders. I am going now straight to Colonel Pryor. to lay the whole infamous business before him. I ! think you will scmcely dare to SM. that shores of Nantucket and elsewhere in places You can’t lay tWO things at 01108." “ Yes.

His master’s carriage came before the door. The driver alighted to fix some- thing on the harness. In a moment Mimi climbed up to the driver's seat and took the reins in his paw. , The horses got fri btened and ran away. The driver got bad y hurt, the mtiage was dashed to pieces, and one of the horses was killed. For this caper the master administered to his pet a severe chastisement, and Mimi behaved well for some time. Finally get his pet used to brandy. indeed funny when drunk, but he became, the terror of the whole neighborhood. A, few weeks a 0 one of the domestics of the mansion too Mimi to the village inn kept by a Jew named Rabiuowitch, and treated him to a. glass of brandy. Twice afterward the bear came to the inn of his own accord, and got drinks from the innkeeper. On the third time, Aug. 21, he came, and, not finding the host behind the counter, Mimi unceremoniously rolled out the barrel of brandy on the floor, and tried to break it. Rabinowitch came in, and, noticing what the hear was about, made an effort to take away the barrel from him. A severe strug- gle ensued. The peasants, who were sitting around in the inn at the time, watched with delight the fight between the Jew and the bear. A son 15 years old and then the wife and a young daughter of the unfortunate innkeeper came in to his assistance ; but the enraged beast overpowered them all, When the peasants saw that the. innkeeper fell with a lacerated throat they ran away to alarm the village. When assistance came the whole Jewish family was dead, and the bear, reeling drunk, feasted on their bodies. Yet no peasant dared to lay hand on the pet of their nobleman until the latter came himself and shot his “ darling Mimi.” . LIFE IN GUBI‘ WEED. Mimi's master took a notion to All Sorts oréurious Animals That Journey With the Gulf Slr-cam's Current- It is surprising what curious creatures live in gulf weed. Not the least extraordinary of these inhabitants of the floating algae | which are borne on the current of the Gulf Stream is a little fish that makes its nest in the weeds. For its own protection from enemies, it is made so like the weeds them‘ selves, being orangecolored with white spots, that one cannot detect the scaly animal without actually taking a handful of the vegetable stuff in which it seeks shelter and scrutinizing it. The fish builds its nest by binding together bunches of the gulf weed with long, sticky, gelatinous strings. Its eggs are not laid in a" cavity, but are distri- buted. throu h the mass. Its very fins are finger-shape , counterfeiting the form of the weed-fronds. They are more like hands than fins, and are actually employed for walking through the seaweed, rather than for swimming. The fish utilizes them also in putting together its nests. The great Gulf current, in its course northward along the Atlantic coast and around the great circuit that forms with its eddy the famous Sargasso Sea of marine ] lgrasses, carries along with it an endless stream of life in connection with the gulf wood which floats upon it in “ windrows." The weeds, of varied kinds, bring with l them from the tropics creatures multifarious l conveyed by the mighty river of warm water through the midst of the colder ocean. l Most of them (liewhen the cooler latitudes i are reached, and thus it happens that the l larva: of many forms are found on the, They never live to grow up.
