After a search Frank found in locker the
two Gladstone bags, which, to within thou
sand pounds-the purchase and fitting out Of
the yacht, obably-contained the whole of
the stolen property.
''She's leakingr" exclaimed the skipper of
the Lorna.
small stream ran from under closed
door, and trickled across the floor. 1t rapidly
grew larger, and suddenly the door was burst
open and a volume of water poured into the
little cabin, rising to the height of the
couches. The master of the steamer sprang
up the stairs, Frank followed with the pre-
cions bags, and the officer, grasping See
ley's arm, said: 'Now, sir, if you please, u

As the policeman took a pair of handouts
from his pouch the ex-cashier looked wildly
round, and with his hands pressed to his
brow, CALCULATED:

Then he looked over the side, and the Of
ficer, fearing an attempt at suicide, hastily
seized his arm.
"She's sinkingl she's sinking n came from
some of the sailors: and the bow of the Eula-
lie was suddenly raised out of water.
There was moment of confusion, during
which Mark Seeley bounded toward the
cabin, and before he could be stopped had
closed and bolted the door. The burly officer
threw himself against it and made it CULVER
but was unable to open it.
Meanwhile the bow rose slowly, higher and
higher, and for their own safety those on
board the Eulalie were obliged to leave the
doomed craft. They had reached the Lorna
when the end came. The yacht rolled from
side to side, and gradually sank lower; then
the deck blew W, with a loud crash; a mass
Of foam and spray hid the Eulalie for q mo-
meut, and when it had cleared away she was
gone.
The steamer was headed for the nearest

hired or bought yacht, and sailed quietly
of, he would now be enjoying himself in
safety"
The tone the cynical laugh rang in Franks
ears, and 1t occurred to him that Seeley
would probably adopt some such course.
Twenty miles away, on a branch line, stood
Northport, yachting center, and Williams
might easily, on the previous day, have ar
ranged for their flight.
Early on Sunday morning he called on
Mr.. Grubb to inform him of this idea, which,
by being dwelt upon, had become convic-
ton. As Frank entered the bankers study
Mary left 1t, her face pale and her eyes red,
and Mr.. Ebenezer himself sat listlessly in a
easy chair looking haggard.
'.Above al" said the latter, when jackson
had finished what he went there to say, Isl

that 1t has occurred at rather unfortunate
moment, as we shall be Obliged to get accom-
mediation, and to pay heavy price for it;
and II the story of the robbery leaks out pre-
maturely, we may be ruined"
The young man was fattered by the conf
dence, and, as he looked at the weary face
and heavy eyes, eloquent of anxiety and
sleeplessness, and remembered Mary's trou-
bled features, a feeling of wrath against those
who caused all this grief possessed him.
After a short silence Mr.. Grub said:
Perhaps you would not mind running
over to Northport yourself and making in

and shall give you letter to an old friend Of

The trust made Frank color with pride
His first hope was that fortune might make
him instrumental in saving his employers
from disaster; but he may be pardoned il
there also entered into his mind wish to
earn smile from Mary, as well as her
fathers gratitude
A few inquiries among the Northport police
and the lCungers Of the beach satisfied him
that his s1rmises were correct. Some days

SILKS THAT STAND ALONE.
This Kind VIII BE Most in Favor by Those
Who Can Afford Them

AS if to somewhat mitigate the ultra
fatness of the effect of the unprotuberant,
tournureless back draperies, magnificent
thick silks are imported, of the stand
alone" quality of our grandmothers' time
Luxury will manifest itself the coming
winter in superb silks and pompadour
brocades-called Centennial brocades
this vear-and in the sumptuous silk and
metal embroideries with which plain silks
will be enriched. This lavish use of rare
and beautiful embroidery dates back to
the first empire, when hardly any really
elegant coats were seen, except military
ones, laden with gold embroidery, and
when the masculine dresscoat rivaled
those adopted by women, both in richness
of quality and decoration. One of the
modern forms of this elegant garment is
the centennial" an almost literal repro
duction OF the centennial coat that was
revived two years ago. The square-cut
fronts are bordered with gold and silver
passementeries and the vest is of silk or
satin, nearly covered with the embroidery,
and fastened with very expensive gold
buttons of large size. There are deep
flaps at each side also richly decorated
with gimp and buttons, and are OF jabot
or duchesse or point applique lace, with
deep frills to correspond in the close,
richly-trimmed sleeves, the jabot falling
in graduated curves from the neck to a
point below the waist.

In THE WORLD OF FASHION.
THE COMING STYLES OF AUTUMN.
No More Changing of the Breadths in the
Skirt-Fobs Are Fashionable-siIksT That
Stand Alone-Faked From the
Journals of Fashion.

The walking skirt of the period has in
deed undergone a revolution. 1t is all in
one piece and only contains a single seam,
and is, moreover, made up in what may be
called the wrong way of the stuff The
meaning of this extraordinary state of
things is that manufacturers have be-
thought them of weaving materials that,
taken from selvedge to selvedge, measure
the average length of skirt required by
any woman who is not a giantess. All
along one side is woven a border of stripes
or other pattern suitable for the bottom of
a skirt. Thus, when the one seam is sewn
you have an ample petticoat absolutely
fingered, but just as wide at the top as at
the bottom. The dressmaker's art con-
sists in arranging all this fullness grace
fully over a foundation skirt-and very
effectively many OF them do it. 1t is
rather refreshing to see the female form
divine yelled by ample folds after so long
a course of garments that "exprest' rather
than "hid" it as we have had Of late years.
There are few fabrics for ordinary use that
make up in this style better than the Dor
dered fannels, which are perfection for
seaside and country wear, since they
neither show dust nor SOIL look daintily
delicate, and yet supply just the amount
of warmth so desirable in the damp, chilly
days. But great many expensive fabrics
are manipulated after fashion that pre-
cludes the possibility of two people hav-
ing dresses alike, unless it is their particu-
lar desire The specialist measures off a
certain quantity of this wide kind of stuff,
say in one of the fashionable greens, and
hands it to one of his best embrOideresses,
who forthwith works an elaborate pattern
Of scollops or vandykes in many-colored
silks and gold and silver threads all along
one selvedge. BY the time she has fin
ished she is utterly weary of reproducing
the same pattern and in all probability
would not do any more of 1t well. The
next length, with another pattern, brings
a welcome variety TO her eye and mind,
and thus comes in the beauty of human
handiwork as contrasted with the produc-
tions Of machine. The device resorted
to for toilet intended for woman who
is much taller than the majority of her
sex is to sew guipure lace all along the
selvedge OF the material and so arrange
the embroidery that it is partly on the
stuff and partly on the lace. Toilets pre-
pared in this manner can never become
common, neither can they be cheap.

"why Soldiers Desert"

To THE EDIToR-SI: read in your paper
an article by Mr.. Brown of Yorktown,
Ind, denying certain published statements
concerning the causes of so many assertions in
the regular army. | think the said Mr.. Brown
is mistaken in what he says. Suffers do not
induce soldiers to buy anything from them at
all, for they know that they have got the dead
cinch on the poor fellow and that they have to
buy from them and when they do they have to
buy at the suffers own price.
As far as being maltreated by officers is con-
cerned, soldiers life is dogs life from be-
ginning to end. In fact, | would rather be a
rich girls dog than U. s. soldier. The trouble
with the soldier is, was and always will be,
they are robbed too much by the officers.
Twenty men are allowed twenty rations, but
instead they get fifteen and the officer takes the
other five. You seldom, if ever, see soldiers
take one OF their number out and scrub him.
Mr.. Brown is somewhat mistaken.

FOBS ARE FASHIONABLE,
No Limit to the Number of Forms Piece
of Jewelry May Take.

Ladies are wearing the daintiest and
prettiest little "fobs" Imaginable, made OF
fine gold chains united by small circlets of
engraved crystal. They look very we'll in
doors, or with dress that is not covered
by mantle or jacket, but it is simply pity
that they should be altogether hidden.
Sapphires are quite the gems of the year,
especially when set in brilliants, and it is
difficult to say whether the diamonds best
set off the sapphires or the sapphlres the
diamonds. There is a passing fancy for
moonstones, also set in brilliants, and the
turn of fashions wheel is bringing tur-
quoises again into favor. Almost every
ornament made in brilliants is capable of
being broken UP into variety of articles,
as for instance, tiara will divide into a
comb and two brooches, or can be reversed
as a necklet, or will even make pair Of
bangles. This is a move in very con-
venient direction, especially for those
whose command of diamonds is limited
and who like to have as much as possible
for their money. All these little changes
are good for trade, and by-and-by sap
phires and moonstones will yield the pas
to emeralds and rubies The popularity
of the cat's-eye seems over for the present,
but no doubt it will come in again, and 80
will the amethyst, and even the Bohemian
garnet, among lesser valuables. The fash
ion of placing single brilliants as flower
centers is at its hight on the continent,
but it liz not every one who has loose dIa-
monds floating about, so to speak, and
available for fancy purposes.

BROWN COUNTY.
A Spirited Defense or n County That Has
Been Grossly Abused.

Been Grossly Abused.
To THE EDTToR-.Sir: DIR. Holland has said
that sit seems a very simple thing to tell the
truth, but, beyond all question, there is nothing
half so easy as lying" The latter part of this
statement finds abundant confirmation in GER
tain articles pretending to be descriptive of
Brown comfy and its inhabitants, that have
from time to time appeared in the newspapers.
Now II does seem very simple thing for one
who has visited any part of our country to tell
the truth in regard TO it. but perusal of some
of the articles in question will convince anyone
acquainted with the facts that the writers of
the same have not found it sufficiently simple
for their purpose. Inasmuch as we have spent
some time among the people of this part of the
Hoosier state, we feel called upon to attempt
70 tell part at least, of the truth concerning
them and their environment
Physically, Brown county is rough and
broken. containing in all probability the
hsst gEognd in the state. Formerly there
~ treat deal of timber but il has been
pretty well culled out. There is an abundance
OF good stone and some gold has been found
along the streams. While the soil may not be
as fertile as that of some other regions good
crops of corn and wheat and an abundance of
fruit are produced.
Il is true that Brown county has no railroad,
but this does not reflect in any sense upon
railroad is very good thing, but it takes more
than a railroad to civilize and enlighten a
people.
Fully one half of the inhabitants of Brown
county came originally from Ohio. Indeed it
seemed 70 Us that about every other man we
met hailed from "Noble county," And
from an acquaintance with the people
of both sections we can say that
the people of Brown county have no reason to
fear comparison with their old friends and
neighbOrs of the Buckeye state. And, having
resided in other counties of this state, we are
satisfied that the people of Brown are fully
equal in general intelligence and morality to
the people of any other part of Hoosierdom.
The county is well supplied with school
houses and her teachers show a commendable
amount of zeal in fitting themselves Tor their
work In fact IL may be questioned whether
any other county in the state sends larger
per cent. Of her teachers to the various normal
schools Of the land. A movement is also on
foot for the establishment Of a teachers lib
rary-an institution not found in many coun-
ties OF the state if am correctly informed.
Moreover, there is In Brown county feeling
of equality and common brotherhood none too
common at this day in the more populous re-
Qions. Drunkenness and crime are by no
means as prevalent as in many other parts OF
the state. Finally. we may say that the people
of Brown county have nothing to fear from
newspaper correspondents who have the abil-
ity as well as the desire 10 tell the simple TRUTH
and who do not write merely for the sake Of
creating sensation or filling certain amount
of space. JAY Z. DEE.
