CHAPTER VIII.--bontinued. •And If he has passed," mid I, "why thou of course, he will pat up Ihls plate, and have his own house, and >we shall be losing our Edie.** I tried to make a jest of It, and to speak (lightly, but the words still stuck In any throat. "Poor old Jim!" said she again, and (there were tears In her eyes as she £/- isald it. "And poor old Jock!" she ivfc added, slipping her hand Into mine as we walked. "You cared for me a little bit once also, didn't you, Jock? Oh! is not that a sweet little Alp •out yonder?" It was a dainty cutter of about 30 tons, very ^wift, by the rake of her tmasts and the lines of her bow. She may have been rather less than a •quarter of a mile from the shore--so near that I could see a tall man with a peaked cap. who stood at the quar- ) ter with a telescope to his eye, sweeping it backwards and forwards along (the coast ^-Wbat cae they want here?" «*«d [Edle. "They are rich English from Lontdon," said I, for that was how we explained everything that was above our (comprehension in the Border coun- *ties. We stood for the best part of ian hour watching the bonny craft, and then, as the sun was lying low on a icloud bank end there was a nip In jthe • evening air, we turned back to (West Inch. As you come to the farm house from Mm front you pass up a garden, with (little enough In it, which leads out [by a wicket gate to, the road. On the Irlght of this gate, on the garden side, *was a bit of a rockery, which was said fto have been made by my father's , tmother many years before. Well, as iwe came In through the gate, my eyes „ (fell upon this stone heap, and there ! yas a letter stuck In a cleft stick inpon the top of it. I took a step for fward to see what it was, but Edle Isprang In front of me, and, plucking lit off, she thrust It Into her pocket. "That's for me," said she, laughing, Bat I stood looking at her, with face which drove the laugh from her lips. "Who is it from, Edief* I asked. She pouted, but made no answer. "Who Is it from, woman?" I cried. •"Is It possible that you have been as •false to Jim as you were to mef" "Bow rude you are. Jack 1" she cried. ' "I do wish that you would mind your WWB business." "There is only one person that Mold be from," I cried. "It is from this man De Lapp." "And suppose that yon are right, Jack?" The coolness of the woman amazed rd enraged me. "Ton confess it!" cried. "Have you, then, no shame left?" "Why should I not receive letters from this gentleman?" v *B6cause it is infamous." "And why?" /p " "Because he is a stranger." ^ , . "On the contrary," said she, *1m Is ;> any husband." "And you it Presbyterian!" „ "He wished it to be in a Catholic church." , "When was It?" "On Wednesday week/* I remembered, then, Ukitthat day she had driven over to Berwick, while De Lapp had been away on a long walk, as he said, among the j hills. "What about*Jim?" I asked. ; "Oh! Jim will forgive me." "You will break his heart and ruin his life." "No, no; he will forgive me." "He will murder De Lapp. Oh, Edie! how could you bring such disgrace and misery upon us?" "Ah, now you are scolding I" she cried, and down came the window. I waited some little time and tapped, for rhad much still to ask her; but she would return no answer, and I thought that I could hear her sobbing. At last I gave It up, and was about to go inte the house, for It was nearly dark now, when I heard the click of the garden gate. It was De Lapp himself. But as he came up the path he seemed to be either mad or drunk. He danced as he walked, cracked his fingers in the air, and his eyes blazed like the will-o'-the-wisps. "Voltigeurs!" he shouted--^"voltigeurs de la garde!" --Just as he had done when he was off his head, and then suddenly "En avant! en avant!" and up he came, waving his walking-cane over his head. He stopped short' when he saw me looking at him, and I dare say he f«St a bit ashamed of himself. "Halloo, Jack!" he cried, "I didn't thought anybody was there. I am In what you call the high spirits tonight." "So ii seems!" said I, in my blunt fashion. "You may not' feel so merry when my friend, Jim Horscroft, comes back tomorrow." Ta, ta, ta!" cried De Lapp "I see that you know of our marriage. Edle has told you. Jim may do what he likes." You have given us a nice return for having taken you in." "My good fellow," said he, "I have, as you say, given you a very nice return. I have taken Edie from a life which is unworthy of her, and I have connected you by marriage with a noble family. However, I have some letters which I must write tonight, and the rest we can talk over tomorrow when your friend Jim Is here to help us." He stepped toward the door. 'And this was whom you were awaiting at the peel-tower!" I cried, seeing light suddenly. * 'Why, Jack, you are becoming quite sharp," said he, in a mocking t'one, and an instant later I heard the door of his room close and the key turn in the lock. I thought that I should see him no more that night, but a few miufes later he came into the kitchen where I was sitting with the old folk. "Madame," said he, bowing down with hl9 hand to bis heart in his own queer fashion. "I have met with much kindness In your hands, and It shall always be In my heart. You will ac cept this small souvenir, and you, also, sir, you will take this little gift which I have the honor to make to you." He put two paper packets down upon the table at their elbows, and then, with three more bows t'o my mother, he walked from the room. His present was a brooch with a green stone Bet in the middle and a dozen little shining white ones all round It \We had never seen such things before and did not know how to set a name to them but they told us afterward at Berwick that the big one was an emerald and that the others were diamonds and that they were worth more than all the Iambs we had that spring. My dear old mother has been gone now this many a year^mt that bonny brooch sparkles at the neck of my eldest daughter when she goes out into company, and I never look at it that I do not see the keen eyes, and the long, thin nose, and the cat's whiskers of our lodger at West Inch. As to my father, he had a fine gold watch with a double case, and a proud man was he as he sat with It in the palm of his hand, his ear stooping to hearken to the tick. I do not know which was best pleased, and they would talk of nothing but what De Laj)p had given them. "He's given y<m something more, said I, at last "What then, Jock?" "A husband for Cousin Bdle*' light. As 1 came out int'o the passage a wind struck upon my face, and there was the house-door wide open and the gray light drawing another door upon the Inner wall. And when I looked again, there was Edle's room open also, and De Lapp's too, and I saw in a flash what that giving of presents meant upon the evening before. It was 4 leave-taking, and they were gone. My heart was bitter against Cousin Edie as I stood looking Into her room. To think that for the sake of a newcomer' she ceuld leave as all without one kindly word or as much as a handshake. And he, too I I was angry and hurt and sore, and I went out into the open without a word to my father, and climbed up on to the moors to cool my flushed face. When I got up to Corrienralr I caught my last glimpse of Cousin Edie. The little cutter still lay where she had anchored, but a row-boat was pulling out to her from the shore. In the stern I saw a flutter of red, and I knew that It came from her shawl. I watched the boat reach the yacht and the folk climb on to her deck. Then the anchor came up, the white wings spread once more, and away she dipped right out to sea. I still saw that little red spot on the deck, and De Lapp standing beside her. They could see me also, for I was outlined against the sky, and ihey both waved their hands for a long time, but gave It up at last when they found that I would give them no answer. I stood with my arms folded, feeling as glum as ever I did In my life, until their cutter was only a square, flickering patch of white among the mists of the morning. It was breakfasttime, and the porridge upon the table, before I got back, but I had no heart for the food. There's a letter here from him," said my father, pointing to a note folded up on the table. "It was in his room. Maybe you would read It to us." „ It was addressed, In big letters, to "The Good People of West Inch," and this was the note which lies before me, all stained and faded, as I write: 'M Road tit Australia Crosses InhatpltiWe and Waterless , ^^trttch of CounUjr^ FIVE YERRS 10 WILD Oaring and 8kill of Engineer* Con* quers Most Desolate Waste In "PTCrtd--Heat and Insists Mltice '« !

But the great Victorian desert lay between, a barren, inhospitable and waterless stretch of country. Not a rivulet is to be found In the whole of this vast region.

Worse still are the Intense heat and the bloodsucking insects which abound. *s Five Years Required. 4 The fact meant a five-year battle against terrible odds.

I whistled when I came to these words, written under his name; for though I had long made up my mind that our lodger could be none other than one of those wonderful soldiers of whom we had heard so much, who had forced their way Into every capital of Europe, save only our own, still I had little thought that our roof covered Napoleon's own aide-de-camp and a colonel of his Guard. tfiat Have BiMlirfb in Traditions Will Soon Be Only a Memory.

Mexlcall, Lower California.--One by one the resorts whose names have bulked large in the traditions of the West are meeting an end. Latest to go is the "Owl" at Mexlcali, which Its operators and officials of the Cantu regime in Lower California freely admitted had paid large sums for permission to operate. In the Owl were to be found all the attractions that went to make up the typical dance ball of frontier days. The building itself was new, the "old Owl" having been destroyed by flre last February, but the traditions of the place were much the same and those familiar with the older establishment were at home in the new. A Busy Plaoe. The old Owl was a huge, barn-like structure. Gaming tables and some pool and billiard tables, surrounded by high seats for spectators, occupied Its front spacea Along one side ranged a lengthy bar, where In busy time ten or a dozen bartenders were no unusual sight. Further back was a stage with flimsy scenery, curtained "boxes," that were strongly remlnl% (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Much of the costly gambling paraphernalia that was used ,ln this old establishment was saved when the building burned and was used later in the new "Owl." Ordered to Close. September 4, when orders came from Mexico City, where the new government had frowned upon the gambling and other conditions along the International border, to close the pladb, a dramatic scene was enacted. Manager Coburn read the order, looked for a moment over the crowd of hundreds, representative of nearly every nationality, and summoned the house police. He gave them hasty Instructions and they, starting at the rear of the main room and shouting the word as they want cleared the place within a minute or two of all except the dealers, lookouts and other employees.- Many Chinese, not understanding the order, stampeded through the doors to the street The dealers quickly gathered up the big piles of silver coins and the gambling paraphernalia. , Soon the arch of lightsy above the entrance, that spelled out the name of the place, flickered out. The "Owl" was closed. According to the order from Provisional President de la Huerta, it never la to re-open. A intervened, little grading work was necessary. It was simply a case oi making an even bed on which the sleepers were quickly laid. Then came the placing of the steel rails across them by means of a track layer, and spiking and bolting them. Very trying, however, was the heat particularly during the summer months. It was often impossible at midday to touch the steel rails or handle a shovel without fear of blistering the flngeris. The men had to be provided with rubber gloves to enable them to handle their tools, and also to save their finger nails from splitting, and wear masks as a protection against the insects. Life was only made possible by a liberal daily supply of Ice, Obtained from the refrigerating cars attached to the construction trains Which followed them. Discover Water. At Intervals of 50 miles or so, water tanks were built the intention feeing to ose these In connection with the working of the trains. They were to be supplied with water pumped from the reservoirs at Kalgoorlie. But after two and a half years' work, during which the track had progressed at the rate of about a mile a day, the engineers realized that If a really efficient service was to be maintained the proposed method of obtaining water would have to be modified. So they sent for a boring plant, and at a point 350 miles from Kalgoorlie began boring for water. Everyone shook their heads, declaring there was no water In the whole of that barrel* land. But at a depth of 1,300 feet water was found. This discovery of water not only relieved the engineers of considerable anxiety and greatly lessened their work, but it has changed *he "vhole aspect of the country.

They thought I was daffing when I said that, but when they came to understand that it was the real truth, they were as pleased as If I had told them that she had married the laird. De Lapp was for all we knew, steady and quiet and well-to-do; and as to the secrecy of It, secret marriages were very common In Scotland at that time, when only a few words were needed to make a man and wife, so nobody thought much of that The old folk were as pleased, then, as If their rent had been lowered but I was still sore at heart for it seemed to me that my friend had been cruelly dealt' with, and I knew well that he was not a maa who would easily put up with it CHAPTER X. The Return of the Shadow. I woke with a heavy heart the next morning, for I knew that Jim would be home before long, and that it would be a day of trouble. But how much trouble that day was to bring, or bow far it would alter the lives of all pf us, was more than I had ever fought in my darkest moments. I had to get up early that morning, for It was just the first flush of the lambing, and my father and I were out l en the moors as soon as it waa fairly Before the Christian Era Romans Hon- •red Their Qods on the Mountain of Monserrat. Monserrat, the famous shrine In the Spanish province of Barcelona, Illustrates the effect which high mountains have on men. When you climb to the top of a high mountain you feel worshipful and at peace with the universe Monserrat Is an outlying spur of the Pyrennees which stands all alone, splendidly dominating a rich plain. It is one of the most ancient and famous of Catholic shrines. According to legend, many centuries ago an image of the Virgin was found at the top of the mountain, and It was impossible to move the Image. Thus It was shown to men (hat they should build a shrine on Monserrat In medieval times It was a shrine of unexcelled beauty and splendor. An emperor came here to kneel and to cover the great Byzantine church with gold. A queen walked up the mountain barefoot. The great and the learned of all the Christian world gathered at Monserrat Its greatness came to an end In the nineteenth century when the French sacked the shrine and carried away the orna ments. Now the church has been rebuilt and offers free lodging to the pilgrims who come there still, but the fame and splendor of the place have shrunk. Yet Monserrat will always be a shrine. Before Christ the Romans had a temple of Venus there and before that more than likely savages worshiped their gods on the mountain top. Worship veritably grows in the soil 6f Monserrat ' OLD CHANCERY JNN FOR SALE Famous London Building, 8ix Centuries Old, Will Be Offslll ^ at Auction.

Constantinople.--Nine vises an required to carry a traveler from Constantinople to Paris on the Oriental express, and the task is so great most travelers take steamers to Marseilles or Venice in preference to the jumbled rail trip across the Balkans, which necessitates endless controversies with officials at various frontiers. An American going to Paris by rail must start with the vise of the United States consulate on his passport then go to the Swedish legation to get the Bulgarian vise. The Serbian stamp is next in order. It must be followed by three Greek stamps. Then vises must be had of the Italian and the French military controls. Many passports are not large enough to carry all the stamps. An Englishman who recently attempted to get the collection on an old . passport as* hausted all the blank space In four calls. His embassy would not permit him to attach a blank sheet to his passport Consequently he had to have a new one issued and started over again on the round.

Washington.--The reduction In the quantity of tea Imported into the United Stales last year was not due to a falling off In the consumption, as erroneously reported, says George F. Mitchell, supervising tea examiner of the bureau of chemistry, but to the surplus supply brought In during the war and to high prices In the tea producing countries. As it was, the amount imported was slightly more than the normal annual Importations before the war though less than during the conflict and the tea was the finest on record. Thd large Importations during the war were due, according to Mr. Mitchell, to the fear on the part of the tea Importers that an embargo would be placed on importations inter. Last year with supplies on hand the Importers hesitated to bring In additional tea at higher prices. It Is probable that more tea Is being consumed since the advent of prohibition than formerly.
