when the tide is low and the wind is rising
suddenly.
The Wanderer was in sore straits, for the
minutes were passing quickly and he rem
embered the last look on ka!ka's face, and
how he had LETT the Moravian standing be-
fore the weapons on the wall. And nothing
had been done yet, not so much as an order
given not 10 admit him if he came to the
house. At any moment he might be upon
them. And the storm showed no signs of
being spent. Her wild, convulsive sobbing
was painful to hear. IF he tried to move
she dragged herself franticaily at his feet
lest he should tread upon her hands. He
pitied her, now, most truly, though he
guessed rightly that to show his pity would
be but to add fuel to the blazing fame.
Then, in the interval of a second, as she
drew breath TO weep afresh. be lancied that
he heard sounds below as of the great door
being opened and closed again. With
quick, strong movement, stopping low he
put his arms about her and raised her from
the floor. At his touch, her sobbing ceased
for moment, as though she had wanted
only that to soothe her. In spite of him,
she let her head rest upon his shoulder, let
ting him still feel that if he did not support
her weight with his arm she would fall
again. In the midst of the most passionate
and real outburst of despairing love there

armed as he was. For the man was caught
as in a trapand must stay there until he was
released, and there could be little doubt
from his manner when taken that he was
either mad or consciously attempting some
crime. There was no longer any necessity,
ne thought, for Unorna to take refuge any
where for more than an hour. In that time
Israel Kafka would be in safe custody and
she could re-enter her house with nothing to
fear. But he counted without Unorna's un-
yielding obstinGcy. She threatened it he
left her for moment TO 60 back to Israel
Kafka. A few minutes earlier she had car
ried out her threat and the consequence had
been almost fatal.
"If you are in your right mind. he said at
last, beginning to walk toward the corner,
"you will see that what you wish to do is
utterly against reason. / will not allow
you to run the risk of meeting Israel Ka1ka
to- night, but I cannot take you with me.
No-1 will hold you, if you try to escape
me, and will bring you to place Of safety
by force, if need be.
"And you will leave me there, and 1 shall
never see you again. will not go, and you
will find it hard to take me anywhere in the
crowded city by force. You are not Israel
Kafka, with the whole Hebrews quarter at
your command in which TO hide me-"
The Wanderer was perplexed. He saw,
however, if he would yield the poiut and
give his word to return to her. she might be
induced to follow his advice.
'If promise to come back to you, will
you do what ask?" he inquired.
"Will you promise truly?'' @
II have never broken promise vet"
Ibid you promise that other woman that
you would never love again, wonder? If
so, YOU are faithful indeed. But you have
forgotten that. Will you come back to me
if let YOU take me where will be safe to-
night ?'

me-"
"if YOU fail, nv blood is on your head"
"Yes-on my head be it.''
Every we'll. / will go to that house where
1 first stayed when I came here. Take me
there quickly-no-not quickly either-let
it be very long | shall not see you until
tomorrow" :...
A carriage was passing at a foot pace.
The Wanderer stopped it, and helped
Unorna to get in. The place was very near,
and neither spoke, though he could feel her
hand upon his arm. He made no attempt
to shake her of. At tue gate they both got
out, and he rang a bell that echoed
through vaulted passages far away in the
interior.
Tomorrow" said Unorna, touching his
hand.
He could see even in the dark the look of
love sne turned upon him.
"Good night" he said, and the next mo-
ment she had disappeared within.

A Party of Malays Invited Into Bucking-
ham Palace by Her.
Pail Mall Budget
As the Queen was driving up to the en-
trance Of Buckingham Palace last week, q
party of II Malays, under the charge of Mr..
Wheatley, agent of a firm of colonial mer-
chants, were standing in the street in order
to obtain view Of Her Majesty. The
Queen gave orders to Chief Inspector Colds
worthy to take the name Of the person in
charge of them; and the result was that the
party were commanded to attend at the
palace. On arrival they were received by
Sir Henry Ponsonby, and at once had an
audience with the Queen.
In answer to her inquiries they said they
were pilgrims on their way from Cape
Town to Mecca, and that they had come TO
see London. The Queen, after talking to
them for about ten minutes, gave orders
that they were to be shown over the palace.
This was done; and they afterward left,
highly gratifsd at the interest evinced in
their welfare by Her Majesty. The party
consisted of six men, i've women, and one
child.

Has Heard of Jerry simpson.

EStacado Jesus de Fonseca, of Conejos
county, COL, writes 10 know ''Who is Jerry
Simpson, the newly elected statesman now
in Washington, and what are his qualif-
cations as lawmaker?"
Jeremiah Simpson is the Congressman
from the Seventh district of Kansas. He is
a native of New Brunswick, and at IA years
of age went 10 sea, where he became a
victim OF the habit of going utterly with
out socks. He takes great pride in his we'll
turned mahogany ankles and richly carved
legs. At full dress parties and receptions
the coming season he will offset the low
corsage of the finely formed Washington
bellies by wearing Il set of higheut panties,
revealing his we'll groomed though still
slightly chapped ankles.
He was mate of large bark at the age of
% wears, and 13 years ago lett the sea to lc-
cate in Kansas. The Sockless Cicero of
Kansas, as he is playfully called, was
LARGELY in his later years a fresh water
sailor and his last vessel was wrecked off
Ludincton, on Lake Michigan, and all Oh
board were saved through the heroism of
the Captain.
How He Came to Be Great.
CAPTAIN Jerry Simpson is now farmer.
and. it is said, was elected because he
showed on the stump his sockless condition.
claiming he was so poor and honest that he
could not afford socks. Lis successor will
doubtless be plain man, who will go about
cauvassing the Seventh district and wiping
his nose on the top rail of the fair ground
fence because he is SO plain and poor that
he cannot afford handkerchief,
Until last June Mr.. Simpson was the City
Marshal of Medicine Lodge. He was up to
that time regarded as short on genius and
long on socks. Now it is otherwise. Next
to the "Kreutzer Sonata" and the young
lady at the Fourteenth street museum who
has heavy sorrel mane down her spinal
column, the Sockless holds the age on pub
lie notice.
Colonel Marsh Merdock was the first to
discover that Jerry did not wear socks. The
two went IN swimming together during the
campaign, and then the secret got out. The

crowd of iron and steel manufacturers and
mining engineers who came over here from
England and Germany last fall to exchange
scientific information and see the country.
And when the Britshers got home again
they were mombers of the Iron and Steel
Institute-they held meeting and resolved
to send over some testimonial of their ap-
probation and gratitude. They decided
that punch bowl was about the best thing
they could selecr. With the bowls came a
letter from Sir James Kitsor.
