This much is certain in regard to the
Behring sea seal controversy. The
seals are diminishing in numbers rap
idly. Some measures must be taken
at once to preserve them. Great Britain
is as much interested as America can
possibly be in the seal industry. There
fore it is to the interest of both coun-
tries alike to agree on some method
whereby these profitable animals shall
not be wiped out. England does not
want London dyed" sealskins to be
abolished,

Much can be made out Of the reciproc-

try is healthier than most of the Central
American lands, and has resources of
riches incalculable in wood, in live stock
and fruit and mines. AS great fortunes
can be made there as were got in the old
time when Spain was squeezing the
West Indies, and they can be got hon
orably and with mutual benefit to both
parties, which was far from being the
case in the other instance.

CHAPTER w.

We made a late start the next morn
ing and did not reach the farmhouse be-
fore four o'clock. / had little oppor-
tunity of speaking TO Kate on the way;
in fact, the presence of Slurk, who sat
on the box of the vehicle and once In
awhile threw glance at us over ms
shoulder, irritated me TO such q degree
that more tender sentiments were tenn
porarily pushed into the background.
Kate herself. though she attempted to
appear cheerful, betrayed signs OF in
ward anxiety and nervousness. while
Mr.. Birchmore converSed with volu-
bility and RESPONSIVENESS greater than l
had ever remarked in him before.
The farmhouse stood quite alone on
an unfrequented by-road, in little
angle OF the hills. 1t was not exactly
picturesque building, with its four walls
covered with rough plaster and pierced
with dozens OF small windows, and its
enormous red tiled roof, with those
quaint, narrow apertures, like half
opened eyes, disclosing single pane OF
glass, which do duty as dormers. 1t
stood flush with the road, as German
houses ara fond OF doing; but behind
was large inclosed farmyard, roughly
paved with round stones and well walled
in. The front door, though rather pre-
tentiously painted and ornamented with
some religious verSicle or other written
upou the Intel, was not used as means
OF entrance or exit.
1t was, as l afterward discovered, not
only locked and bolted, but actually
screwed up on the inside, and the only
way of getting into the house was by
side door opening into the courtyard.
As the courtyard itself was provided
with heavy gate, you will see that the
farmhouse, close to the road though 1t
was, was by no means so easy OF ingress
or egress as it appeared-supposing, of
course, that it was the hGmor OF the in
mates to declare a state OF siege. mem
ton these particulars merely by the
way, they are common to three houses
out of five in this region.

will, that is-begging your pardon-im-
possible and absurd"
He laughed again and shot another OF
his startling looks at me.
"Very well, young sir, have nothing
more to say. Come with US to the farm
house tomorrow; there's plenty OF room
there, and they are used to being ac-
commodating there. Stay with US until
you're satisfied, and then-don't forget
your promise"
He rose as he finished speaking and
flung away the ramains OF his cigar.
'Good night, he said, holding out his
large, we'll shaped hand.
"Good night, and thanks for your con-
fdence, which you will never regret
Mr.. Birchmore."
"Qui viva, verraI" was all his answer
as he walked away, with his hands In
his coat pockets and his singular short
steps.
He was an enigma sure enough, and
yet my belief in him was as intuitlve
and inalienable as In Kate herself. His
mysterious hints and warnings were

over my passion, as young men will, and
ever and anon glancing up at a certain
window, behind the lamp illumined cur
tain Of which had reason to suppose
nv darling was. Was she thinking OF
me now? Even as l asked myself this
and gszed upward shadow fell upon
the curtain. it was pushed aside, and
the window was swung back on its
hinges.
With throb Of the heart l sprang to
my feet and waited kiss from my fin
ger tips toward the face that peeped out
upon me. Stay! was it Hates face, al
ter all? The arms and shoulders now
appeared, and the form leaned upon the
window sill. A lucifer match flashed,
and 1 had the pleasure of beholding the
sinister visage of of MIR. Slurk lit up by
a sulphurous CLEAN as he leisurely lit
his pipe and Stared down at me.

Il never mean to say 'goodby' to you

The resolution with which l spoke

can speak to him if you will. But oh!

few moments and then returned TO the

The Birchmores' luggage had, 1t APP
peared, already been carried over from
the hotel: but man in rough PEASANTS
costume, who announced himself as the
master of the house, now came out 10
take charge of my trunk. l was, or
fancied myself (as you may have no.
ticed), a Quick judge Of faces, and this
peasants face failed to commend itself
to me. 1t was at once heavy ana
gloomy, while scar at one corner OF
his mouth caused that feature to twist
itself into a perfunctory grimace, gro
tesouelv at variance with his normal ex-
preston. In person he was much above
the common size, and TO judge by the
ease with which he slung his heavy
trunk over his shoulder, he must have
been as strong as August de Starke,
himself, whose braZen statue domlneers
over the market place in Dresden.
"Guten morgen, Herr Rudolph" said
Slurk, hailing this giant ahaoly. Inc
two seemed to be on some sort OF terms
of comradeship, having perhaps struck

negotiations for the lodgings. l must

We alighted and were welcomed in
with surly courtesy by Herr Rudolph.
Kate. confessing to a headache, went at
once to her room, whence she did not
again emerge; Slurk disappeared into
the kitchen region with the landlord;
Mr.. Birchmore presently went out for
stroll before dinner, and l, finding my
self thrown temporarily on my own

short flights OF steps or eddying into

indifferent luck when encountered the
boy, and the first impulse was to laugh
at his outfit. A small sapling, trimmed
down, served him for pole; his line was
stout cord, tied 10 the pole and tied 10
his hook. That was all he had except
ing worms for bait. In the pride Of my
own youth l gloried in the best and
most elaborate tackle that / could afford

extortion of money. This was the way
read the situation, and l flattered my
self that was equal to the emergency.
Upon consideration, however, l de-
cided to alter my intention of asking
Mr.. Birchmore about his valet. 1t was
tolerably clear that he was not in a posi-
ton TO give me any information; and,
besides, had already learned every
thing except the particulars. Those par
ticulars, il did not succeed in discover
ing them unaided, must be extracted
from Kate. She would not withhold
them from me il questioned her reso-
