"Shâ€"sh, yer softy ! D‘yer want to git "im nabbed ? Oggy‘s took the happles over to the meadow. _ You come along aâ€"me and we‘ll ‘ave a blowâ€"out." So saying, the last two speakers separatâ€" ed from their companions, and running round behind the workhouse, cautiously crossed the garden. This brougcht them to a stone wall, over which they clamâ€" bered. They were now in the meadow, and here, st;re enough, sittfni close_ to the wall, they found another little felâ€" low waking for them. It was Dr. Layiton of Olswick gramâ€" mar school who spoke. His audience conâ€" aisted of the ushers and pupils of that establishment. The announcement was not altogethâ€" er unexpected. . In fact, two _ young gentlemen were already secretly conâ€" gretulating themselves on having got off so easily. But their hopes were destined to be dashed to the groundâ€" the doctor has not finished. How much does he know!? "I said, young gentlemen," he conâ€" tinued, "that there would be no halfâ€" holiday; but I speak with a reservaâ€" tion. If I can possibly avoid it, it is not my plan to punish the whole school for the fault of a few of its members. [ call on those boys who robbed _ Mr. Hodge‘s orchard yesterday to give me their names. Unless I am greatly misâ€" taken, they will do so. Will those boys stand upt‘ While the fifty or so young gentleâ€" men at the Olswich graramar school were poring over their books in (the worst of tempers, and looking _ wistâ€" fully out of the windows at the cricket pitch, _ which now _ appeared doubly green â€" and _ smoothâ€"while, in short, these _ youthful aristocrats _ were extremely miserable, some twenty litâ€" tle paupers, inmates of the _ Olswick Union, were in the very wildest of high spirits. "The board" had just conciudâ€" ed its annual inspection, also its anâ€" nual luncheon, and its annual cigars â€"the last two forming, by the way, a very considerable item in the annual bill chargeable to the ratepayersâ€"and everything having gone smoothly, the chairman had requested the master of the workhous»e to allow the old pauâ€" pers a ration of tobacco and to give the children a halfâ€"holiday. _ _ OGILVIE WHITTLECHURCKH Then every one looked at every one else; the big boys began to look very fierce, and the small ones to look very red. Presently, the schoolâ€"bell rang, and all trooped in again and took _ their places as before. fiarkins and Rimington were already in theirs, looking very sore and uncomfortable, but Whittleâ€" church was not in the room. _ When every one was seated, the doctor tapâ€" ped his desk for silence, and proceeded to address the school: "Whittlechurch is expelled. He persisted in denying his guilt; and as ?, have often told you that I will not be responsible for the charge of a liar, I had no course but to send him back to his father. That he was guilty, there can be no doubt. W hen .\%r. lfodge's complaint reached me yesterday afternoon, 1 walked over to his farm, We went into the orchard, and there I saw his full name "Ogilâ€" vie Whittlechurch," cut on an apple tree. The work was quite recent; it could not have been done more than a couple of hours at most; and in the face of this evidence he still refused to admit that he had been in the orâ€" chard.â€"Let this be a warning to you, younq gentlemen. _ Never be tempted to tell a lie. If you do, you will most assuredly be obliged to tell a score more to substantiate it. But were you to tell a thousand, the end will be alâ€" ways the sameâ€"â€"detection." V”Am'uls-t a breathless silence, . two lads stood up in their places. "I have reason to know that there is another boy who ought to be standing up. I will give bim a minute to do so." The doctor took out his watch. What an age! that sixty seconds seemed! "Ogilvie Whittlechurch, stand up." The boy addressed was a slender delâ€" icate little fellow in the first form, but with an open and intelligent face, not at all the face of a sneak. Scarceâ€" ly seeming to take in what was hapâ€" pening, he obeyed; and then, seeing the gaze of the whole school concentrated on himself, burst into tears. "I am sorry," said the doctor sternâ€" ly, "very sorry to find that there is a boy in my school who can descend to a lieâ€"to find a boy who is _ mean enough to see his companions punishâ€" ed whils he himself goes free. _ The school may dismiss now, and leave their books out. There will be no halfâ€" holiday; we will resume work at three o‘clockâ€"Parkins, Rimington and Whitâ€" tlechurch, go to my study." 'â€"“_ls”trhc}o -no one else?}" asked _ the doctor. There had been a paperâ€"chase the day before, and the hares on their reâ€" turn journey had passed Hodge‘s _ orâ€" churd with the hounds close on their heels. _ Of course, at this, the most exâ€" citing part of the whole chase, none of the bigger boys, nor the good runâ€" ners among the smaller ones, ‘would have turned aside for all the orchards in the county. _ But the three unforâ€" tunates who were interviewing the doeâ€" tor were known to have stragglied earâ€" ly in the day, and nothing was _ more likely than that they had yielded to the temptation of lightening some of the overladen apple trees of their goldâ€" en burden, more especially as Farmer Hodge was the avowed enemy of _ the school, and _ was said to â€" have sworn to make the next boy he caught acquainted wwith his cartâ€"whip. But how the doctor had "bowled out" Whitâ€" tlechurch, no one could imagine. 8 Fifty boys do not allow themselves to be robbsd of an afternoon‘s cricket without some retaliation; and many were the threats indulged in of "bedâ€" room lickings" and "monitor thrashâ€" ings" to be afterwards administered to the unhappy Whittlechurch. _ Besides, to do them justice, English schoolboys have a strong sense of honor; and if a master will but show by his conduct that he appreciates and trusts in this sense, public opinion is always against a boy who takes advantage of him. CHAPTER L 1 "There will be no halfâ€"holiday this "‘Ave I got ‘em!" replied the other, eontempluouslx. " D‘ yer think I‘ve left ‘em behind ?" And producing a piece of sacking tied up in a bundle, be proâ€" ceeded to undo the knot, thus allowing to roll out a store of fine ripe redâ€"cheekâ€" ed apples. "O blimy ! ain‘t they prime?" "‘Ere‘s one for you, Bifl; ‘ere‘s one for Charlie Miller; and ‘ere‘s one for me. ‘Ere‘s two for you, ‘ere‘s two for Châ€"â€" Douse it, and cut ! Can‘t yer see the lSquu-e comin‘! My! ain‘t ‘e runâ€" nin‘ t‘ * ‘Ave you got ‘em, Oggy ?"â€"‘Ave you got the {appiea t" they both asked at once in an eager wihisper. The two lads who had just come were over the wall again before he had finâ€" ished speaking. But the one who had been distributing the apples stayed for a moment to tie up the bundle; then, Ix‘mt as he was about to follow them, e suddenly saw the Squire trip up and fall heavily to the ground; and at the same time realised what he had not noticed before, namely, that the gentleman was not pursuing himself and his companions, but was trying to escape from an infuriated bull, which now made its appearance through a gap at the other end of the field, rushing madly, head down, straight for where he lay. What impulse prompted him he never knew. Had he waited but a fraction of a second, to think, he would most probably have followed his comâ€" panions, But be did not think. He ran as hard as he could go to where the gentleman was lyingâ€"the bull was now within six yardsâ€"picked up a stone,and threw it at the animal with all his force. It hit the latter between the eyes. The effect was instantaneous. The bull stopped short, tossed his head, halfâ€" turned round, and then catching sight of some blankets hiung up to dry, which were fluttering in a cottage garden near by, made off in that direction at the top of his speed. hests s him ?" *Yes, sit.‘" _ "Mr. Saunders‘"â€" "Yes, sir." ‘"‘That lmfy bas just saved my life at the risk of his own, and I intend to adopt him as my son. Inform the guarâ€" dians, please, and let me know their answer." "Whâ€"whâ€"what! sir?" * Colonel Forward had acted, as we have seen, quite on the spur of the moment; and it was not until he came to think the matter over calmly,while smoking his afterâ€"dinner cigar, that he fully realized the magnitude©: of the step, and the great responsibility which he was about to incur. At best, it would be a hazardous experiment. Howâ€" ever, having undertaken it, he would spare no pains to make it a success. And he determined that it should be through no fault of his if Ogilvie Forâ€" wardâ€"for so he intended to name him â€"turned out anything other than an honourable English gentleman. He did not care much for the neighborhood, and had long meditated selling his preâ€" sent residence. Now, it was clearly his duty to do so at once,as it would never do to brintg the boy up within a stone‘s throw _ of his old companions. This point settled in his own mind, he sat down and wrote the necessary instrucâ€" tions to his solicitors, smoked another cigar, and went to bed. ; "Not very good, sir; but quite clean. The matron has them now. But there was no mark on them, sir, nothing at all; only _ "Ogilvie Whittlechurch" written on a piece of paper and pinâ€" ned on to his }mck, as you might label a parcel." _ _"And is that all you know about "How was he dressed?t _ Were his clothes good t" _ "We have never been able to find out who he is, sir. He was found one morning in the garden, wrapped up in suro ‘[ raye ¢suf sem 31 ‘[meys v hare ; remember it perfectly. He couldn‘t have been there very long, beâ€" cause the shawl was bardly damp, and the dew had been very heavy. But we never knew who put him there." _ ‘I say that I wish to adopt Ogilvie Whittlechurch,. Surely that is plain enâ€" ough, Now, if you will kindly lend me your arm as far as my houseâ€"thanks." Meanwhile, the Squire, who had twistâ€" ed his ankle, had with some difficulty got up ; and leaning partly qr the boy and pa.rt‘lxy on his stick, hobbled to the gate. " What is your name, my little man?" he asked. " Ogilvie Whittlechurch, sir.‘ "Queer name that for a pau{mr," he muttered. _ " Well, Ogilvie Whittleâ€" church, run back to the workhouse and tell the master that I want to speak to ‘him. Do you understand? Tell him thrag _Colonel Forward wishes to speak o ‘him." " Ain‘t yer goin‘ to tell ‘im to whack us for comin‘ in the meadow ? But you‘ll only tell ‘im of me,?" Will yer, sir?" "Oh Isee.â€"All right, my boy, I won‘t say anything about the others. Now, off you run, and fetch the master.â€"By "Humph! Always speaks the truth, and thinks of his companions before himself, besides being as plucky _ a youngster as one could wish to see. Why, the boy must have been a born gentleman!" Colonel Forward was evâ€" idently a bigoted aristocrat. _ "Never mind the trespassing, Mr. Saunders. I take an interest in the lad and want to know who he is. How did he come to the workhouse t" Heaven!" muttered the colonel as he stretched out his leg, which was rathâ€" ther painful, "but I like that youngster ext remely." s I die there is no one to carry on my name. Yet I suppose that this is the kind of step that one ought to think over before taking. But then I don‘t fancy that the boy thought tmuch when he saved my life just now. I wonder who he is. I don‘t ever remember havâ€" ing heard the name before; but it cerâ€" tainly does not sound a plebian one.â€" However, here comes the master, and I‘ll find out.â€"Ah,. Mr. Saunders, I want to ask you about that youngster, Ogilâ€" vie Whittlechurch. <( Who is he, and what is he f" * "Oh, the young scoundrel, sir; he told me that you caught him in your field; but I‘ll take good care that he doesn‘t do it again. He‘s the most misâ€" chievous boy in the ‘ouse, sir. But he‘s not allogether a bad lotâ€"he always speaks the truth." " Ob, p-i-lease. sir, we wasn‘t doing no ‘arm. Leastways, the other two wasâ€" n‘t. You‘ll only tell ‘im of me, sir? * What do you mean my lad? I don‘t understand." For a few moments he remained thinking; then, halfâ€"aloud, he muttered: ‘"Why shouldn‘t I% I‘m an old bachâ€" elor, and likely to remain one. When Will yer?"

However, he still had enough to live on; but, for his son‘s sake he regretted that it was not more. & his early workhouse training. As for the colonel, he has learned to love him more and more each year, and _ now blesses the impulse which prompted him From Eton, Ogilvie passed into Woolâ€" wich, and from Woolwich he was gazâ€" etted lieutenant in the Royal Enginâ€" eers. His detachment was stationed at Leith, where they were employed reâ€" newing the submarine defences of that port. When the main part of the work had been completed, several of the ofâ€" ficers, Ogilvie among the number, sent in their applications for _ leave, which were approved in due course. His plans were to devote a week to a _ short walkingâ€"tour in the neighborhood,which he had hardly as yet had time to see at all; and then to spend the rest of his leave with his father. Accordingâ€" ly one fine June morning, stick in hand and knapsack on back, he started on his travels. It was quite early, and, exâ€" cept for a few workmen, the streets were practically deserted. There were also a few sailors hanging about the dockyard gates. One of these latter, who â€" hbhad been sitting on a bundle against the wall, got up as he passed and followed him. Looking round a few minutes afterwards, he noticed that the man was still behind him. "I wonder if that man can be following me for any reasont" he thought, and then smilâ€" ing at the idea that he was getting as fidgety as an old maiden lady, he disâ€" missed the subject from his thoughts. It was a delightful morning, bright and exh la:ating, and under the combinâ€" ed influences of the freshness of the weather, his own light heart, he stepâ€" ped out briskly. When clear of the town, he stopped for a minute to readjust the straps of his knapsack, and, while doing so, ‘had leisure to irspect the sailor, who was a few paces oif. HMis appearâ€" ance was certainly not in his favour. He was about middie height, solidly built, with a short thick neck, and bullet ‘head surmounted by a fur cap. His face, which was adorned by a scrubâ€" by black beard and moustache, indicatâ€" ed both cunning and ferocity. His bunâ€" dle and a pair of big seaâ€"boots, as well as an indescribable something about his walk and carriage, showed him to be a sailor. But had it not been for these, one would have felt more inclined to put him down as a professional burglar than anything eise. s £6 * Well, capting, you see, 1 was always very fond of yer; and hearing that the other young toffs down yonder at the barracks didn‘t know as ‘ow you‘d ever been anything different from what you areâ€"and you bein‘ in course too modest to tellâ€"I thought, d‘yer see, as I‘d be doin‘ you a good turn by letting ‘em know the ‘ole story. (They‘d respect you, so I thoughtâ€"you ‘avin‘ made your way so wonderfulâ€"it commands reâ€" spect, that does. But this morning I thought this; Oggy weren‘t never _ a boaster, and p‘raps ‘e‘d rather I didn‘t say nothing after all. So, when you come out of the barracks, capting, _ J says to myseif: ‘Well, I‘ll just ask ‘im myself,‘ I says; ‘and if ‘e tells me to clap a stop{)er on my jawâ€"tackleâ€"well perhaps ‘e‘ll come down ‘an‘some.‘. ‘So!‘ thought Ogilvie, after listening to the above speech, which was deliverâ€" ed in a sarcastic tone, showing that the speaker imagined that he had him comâ€" pletely at his mercy, "this is nothing more or less than a deliberate attempt to extort blackmail." Now, although his brotherâ€"officers beâ€" lieved him to be Colonel Forward‘s son, he was sufficiently popular in the mess not to mind the true facts of the case coming to light. At the same time,howâ€" ever, he dig not*like the idea of this man appearing at the barracks in his absence with a sensational story which would most likely be adorned with numerous embellishments of his ‘own. (Â¥ course, no one in the mess would iisten to him; but that most probably would only have the effect of making him retail it in the canteen, which would be worse. Take it which way he would, it was a nuisance; and unless he chose to return at once, and so spoil his walkingâ€"tour, wshich he. had no inâ€" tention of doing, it could not be helped. ‘"Not only will I not give you fifty pounds," he answered, "but I will not give you fifty shillings. What yow propose to do can cause me nothing more than a little temporary inconveniâ€" cnce; so pleass consider yourself free to go and do it as soon as ever you please. 1i you have nothing more to say to me I will go on with m'ynwal_k'.:'_ "Fifty pounds!" said Ogilvie. _ " 1 cannot give you as much as thatâ€"cerâ€" ta'ienly not now. But why do you want it t" What, then, was Ogilvie‘s astonishâ€" ment when, just as he was pulting on his knapsack again, the individuai we have described, waiked cooly up to him and thius accosted him: " And so you‘re Capting Forward." " Ah! now you‘re beginning to speak. You were only talking before.â€"Never mind ‘bow I found you outâ€"that don‘t matter. As for what I_wantâ€"well. what d‘yer think I want ? Not moneyâ€" Ob no! ‘Tisn‘t likely. What I wants is L, and S, and D; but chiefly L, and that with a fifty after is ; that‘s what I want." j { " Now, that you remind me," he conâ€" tinued, " I do remember you. You were one of my playmates before Colonel Forâ€" ward adopted me. How did you find out where I was ?â€"and what can I do for you ?" fe e s % To the best of his knowledge, the man was an utler stranger; and he was so taken aback with his impertinence, that for a second or two he continued to take stock of him before answering. * Yes," be replied, "1 am Mr. Forward." :‘ find you don‘t remember me?" « 0.” " What ! you don‘t remember your old pal, Charlie Millerâ€"and we used to be that fond of each other, too, we used. Now, try to think, capting ; sureâ€"ly, you must remember Charlie.‘‘ Having said this in a mocking tone, the man reâ€" mained, looking at Ogilvie, his face formed into a halfâ€"sneer, halfâ€"grin, which had the effect of making him look absoiutely hideous. Suddenly a light broke on Ogilvie ; it all came back to his memory now, the old days at Olswick, and the little pauâ€" pers, his companions. He did rememâ€" ber him. With an inward shudder he bad to acknowledge _ to himself{ that this person had once been his friend. Naturally kindâ€"hearted, he would, unâ€" der ordinary circumstances, have been only too glad to do a good turn to one of ‘his old associates, notwithstanding that their present paths of life, were, and necessarily must be, on levels so very different. He made, moreover, a shrewd guess that it was not alone for the pleasure of freeting an old acâ€" quaintance that Miller had tracked him down; and events showed that he was Fight. :/ fher C The other‘s face fell visibly. This was not at all what he had bargained for. ‘"What! you don‘t mind them young toffs knowing you was brought up in the Union nfiong aâ€"mef#" Then suddenly chanfiing his tone, he continuâ€" ed: ‘"But there! you knew Charlie Milâ€" ler wasn‘t aâ€"goin‘ to play a lowâ€"down game like that, didn‘t yer? Why, bless yer, Oggy, I was only larkin‘. And to think you been and seen through itâ€" and me thinkin‘ I was aâ€"goin‘ to give you such a fright too. But, capting, if fou ‘ave got a thickâ€"un or two to spare I‘m deadâ€"brokeâ€"I‘m reallyâ€"been bousâ€" ing up my jib all last week,.and ain‘t got a dollar left. I want to get a ship at Glasgow, and by what I can see, I‘ll ‘ave to tramp it." _ . § as Many people would have been equally deaf to this second appeal; but Ogilvie, although fully alive in its insincerity, could not help giving the fellow a sovâ€" ereign. After all but for a strange turn of the wheel of fortune he would very likely have been his friend to this very day and been instrumental in keeping him straight. "Look here, Miller," he said. "I have not forgotten that we were boys together; but cirâ€" cumstances have altered our positions, and we can have nothing in common now. â€" Here is a sovereign. I â€" hope you will find a good shif at Glasgow; and let me advise you for the future to stick to your business, and not run about the country trying to frighten people into giving you money. _ It doesn‘t pay.â€"Now, goodâ€"bye." And turning on his heel, Ogilvie walked off in the direction of Queensferry. 5 Many people would have been equally deaf to this second apeal; but Ogilvie, merciful look, just at that moment merciful look, just at that ‘moment For a few moments the other remainâ€" ed watchin% him in silence; but finding that he did not even look behind, he turned‘ and commenced to retras his steps toward Leith. "Blarst ‘un!" he muttered. "I thought ‘e‘d be worth a mint o‘ money to me. BPnut i woun‘t blow on ‘imâ€"‘twouldn‘t be acâ€" wicod. Besides a secret‘s a secret, and mayhbe it‘ll be worth something vyet." Here is a little story which shows the trouble Emperor William 1. has in making his aristocracy behave cirecumâ€" spectly. _ Baron Auerswald, until reâ€" cently a high cavalry officer, is General Secretary of the Union Club in Berlin, and consequently rubs elbows with all the princes of the empire, and is a great swell among swells in Berlin. Among the things the princes of the empire bhave not laught the Baron how to talk through a telephone. Whenever the Baron rang up from the Union Club there was a panic among the girls at the central telsphone office, for the old cavalryman â€"never could understand why it took time to make connections; and the manner in which he rolled out oaths over the wire during the delay was a caution. The director didn‘t wait to hear the rest, but proceeded to let his friend at court know of this last outrage on his dignity. Word came back in itwo days that the Emperor would not have anyâ€" thing more to do with the matter; he was unable to make the Baron behave properly at the telephone; let the dirâ€" ector get any satisiaction he could at law. ‘Thus it happened that the Baron was in the criminal court about two weeks ago, answering the complaint that he had insulted the telephone dirâ€" cctor, intentionally, grossly, maliciousâ€" ly, and repeatedly, especially by callâ€" ing him an "accursed, emptyâ€"headed, bowâ€"legged swine." The Baron explained this language inâ€" geniously. There were rats about the room where the telephone wasy he had placed poison there to kill them; as he stood at the telephons his dog poked its nose through the crack of the door and entered, he was afraid the dog might eat the poison and so ordered the brute out in the violent language quotâ€" ed. The Baron told this story under oath and with a serious face, although a wearer of the King‘s coat, several decâ€" orations and some other things which Emperor William has made out sanctify a man and his mind and his manners and his morals. ‘"What do you want, you accursed emptyâ€"headed, bowâ€"legged swinet _ Get out, orâ€"‘"‘ Unfortunately for the Baron, howâ€" ever, there was one little twist of the German language which upset his little fabrication. A German always adâ€" dresses an animal as "thou" (du), and & person outside of a narrow circle of intimate friends and relatives, as "you" (sie). At the trial the telephone girl and director swore that the Baron had said "sie", and therefore could not have been speaking to his dog. An operator at a subâ€"station, who had overheard the Baron‘s roar, corroborated this testiâ€" mony. So the Baron was fined $60, or just double the amount demanded by the prosecuting attorney and was warn ed that the Ploetzensee jail would yawn for him and his language if the offence should be repeated. The question that experience must answer is "Will the Judge‘s warning be heeded more diligâ€" atly l?)_v the Baron than was the Empâ€" szor‘s t" WILLIAM AND THE PROFANE BARON APPALLING LANGUAGE, > was still turned loose on the wires from the Union Club, and if he received anâ€" other complaint from the director he should let justice take its course. A week later the girl, trying _ to make connections for the Union Club, suddenly fled from her place in the central office and called to the director that the Baron was at it again. The director ran to the telephone just in time to hear the Baron rip out : The warning was vain; two weeks later the director complained _ again. Meeting the Baron at the Union Club three evenings later, a court marshal tola bim the Emperor was much irritâ€" ated to hear that One day, while the director was tryâ€" ing to stem the torrent of abuse from the Union Club, he was informed that he was a sheep‘s head which in Germâ€" any is a term of deepâ€"dyed reproach. As a royal official assailed in his officiâ€" al dignity, the director decided that he must have satisfaction and by devious ways he sent a complaint to the Empâ€" eror. Amid all the cares of Cabinet cries and army manoeuyres the Empâ€" eror found time to warn the Baron that he must stop swearing over the teleâ€" phone. (To Be Continued.)
