man tola him that Mr. Ausgrave had
lust gone 20 luncheon and would not re-
surTi before half past 2.
Iush had eaten q late breakfast, so he
was cot hungry; but he was very nerv-
Gus and tired. Ee had been unusually
excited the night before, and had slept
but few hours, and this waiting Was
very tedious. However, hs was there.
and there he meant - stay till he got
some word from NJ. Husgrave. He
read all the editorials, and was half
through the advertising columns by half
past 2. Still no word from inside.
Every stroke Of the bell on the city edit
or's desk made him start, and he could
not believe that he did not hear his name
mentioned. Finally, nearly stiRed by
the bad air, and worn cut by sitting So
long, Rush made bold push and sent in
word again, to which the reply came
that there was nothing for Mr. Hurl-
stone today" IL was then about 3

Like many man before him, he felt
better after he had dined, and he thought
he would so TO the opera again. To his
disgust, he found that opera WAS given
ouly every other night. II he could not
go to the opera, he could at least go
around to Irving place and look at the
building which only the night before had
been SO glorified in his eyes. So he
walked around to the historic pile of yel-
low brick, and sat down under the portico
and smoked his after dinner cigar in the
cool night air, out of the rain. He de-
rived great deal Of satisfaction from
this indulgence, but thought that a visit
To the stage door would not be without
its attractions. Through that mysterious
portal he saw a light cleaning. How
very jolly it would be TO see inside of
that place! l wonder how / could man
age it" he thought and stood for mo-
ment looking at the door. To his surprise,
it opened with bang. and man shouted
at him. What are you standing out there
for? Why don't you come in:" This
seemed like fate: So somewhat mystifed,
he walked boldly inside. The place was
