hind the barge and so round by john
sons ward into Sweet Apple lane that
1 might not be seen from the JOY.
When the carpenter had done his work,
they all went in by the passage, bolt
ing the door after, and I saw no more
of them.
As soon as it was dark l went to my
hiding place under the stairs, but was
less patient than l had been the night
before, and I could not control my agl-
tation as the time drew near for Iaras
to come again. My teeth chartered, my
body and limbs trembled n shook
with feverish excitement, yet L knew
not why, As the clock struck 2 tne
police boat passed by. About i've MIN
utes later another boat came out OF the
murkey distance and drew toward he
stairs. AS it pulled into the stairs L
counted five men packed into the
stern, and 1 knew by the number that
Taras had found his friends. Ny heart
sank in bitter disappointment, for ,nao
made up my mind to speak to him II ne
came alone with DriRo. Now, there
was no pretext for speaking to him
he was not in danger. With his three
friends he was more than a match Tor
Drigo an Putty, %supposing they had
evil intentions toward him.
They landed, and having discharged
the waterman CROPPED their way up the
dark stairs to the landing above, where
they stopped, talking together in a low
voice and in their own tongue. EVentu-
ally Drigo left them and went up to the
Joy to see that the road was clear.
Meanwhile, made reckless by my un-
satisfied warnings, 1 had left my place,
and following them noiselessly up the
steps stood now almost within arms
reach of Taras. 1 distinguished the
profile of his face quite clearly against
the faint light beyond as he turned 10
speak a few cheering words to one OF
his friends-the bold, handsome outline
of his auuiline nose, the curve OF his
mustache and his short, pointed beard
Almost l fancied 1 could see in his face
the expression of happiness In having
rescued his friends. 1 was envlous OF
that kindly regard bestowed upon an
other. and drawing a step nearer, by
an instructive impulse, raised my hand
and laid it timidly on his arm. The act
was not intentional. 1 could not help
doing it.

expecting every minute some further
DEVELOPMENT of the mystery.
At seven o'clock, when IL was broad
daylight, the front door Of the Mariners
Joy opened, and Putty came out and
took down the shutters. He had not q
scratch on his face. While he was thus
engaged DrIgo appeared, and he also
showed no sign of having been In the
fight. he spoke to Putty and then
walked of along Sweet Apple lane.
Putty went in and reappeared, sweeping
away the fragments OF broke glass.
Then for the first time q terrible fear
that Taras had been killed in the tight
took hold of me and shook me like an
sgue. But 1 did not know what to do.
| was like one paralyzed-incapable OF
action, 1 never thought Of going TO the
p{lIee. What use il Taras was dead?
EksIdes, from the earliest days OF my
recollection, l had regarded the police
as nv natural enemy the enemy OF all
outcasts and homeless wretches like
me. l..
But after a time I caught sight OF
Drlgo returning down Sweet Apple
lane with q loaf under his arm aud
other provisions in his hands. Their
desperate with this newborn fear, L
stepped into the road from the door
way where I had been %crouching an
stopped him.

glish, and with a grin on his hateful
face, but not a sign of embarrassment
or surprise, she went away with his
friends hours ago."
That's q lie," said 1; "only three
men have come out OF the Joy in the
night, and those are the three who went
into it with you and the man with the
fair beard"
~ won't contradict a lady, but II he
didn't go away with his friends he is in
the house now, and If you are still In
doubt you had better come in n see.
The words | have underlined he
whispered with such q fendish grin
that there was no mistaking his mean
ing. II be had said plainly, Come in
and share the same fate as the man with
the fair beard" the threat would not
have been more obvious.
Twill you come, Beauty" he added
with a sheer.
l made no reply, and he went on to
the Joy with a derisive chuckle.
1t was not the fear OF death that
made q coward OF me; my life was too
wretched and hopeless TO be cherished.
1t was just the dread OF personal vlo-
lence and physical suffering; that's all.
But in the course OF the morning l
grew a~pathetic under the sense OF
WEAKNESS and detection. IF the mar
with the fair beard is killed" l said to
myself, 81 may as we'll be killed, too,
and be done with it for good and all"
And with this thought l crossed the
lane and pushed open the swinging
door of the Joy.

Yesterday I changed my lodgings and
came into town q little more. Now l

which is one of the streets here that
have the most passing on them.
To-day the town is full OF strangers.
Farmers are In from some distance, and

one summer in North Carolina, and they
got up so much earlier thar l did In the
morning that Reason tottered on her
perch.
My former lodgings were al Chiswick
pronounced Chizzlck). Chizzick was
the home Of Hogarth. and his body lies
buried in the Chizzick churchyard.
There also is the beautiful estate OF the
Duke OF Devonshire, known as ChisWick
House. Chiswick House is built after
the plan OF an old Roman villa and is
a massive pile. Lots Of old %statuary
from Rome and some decorations even
from the Vatican are there. Several
stone benches from the Roman senate
were put under the trees at Chiswick
House. They we're the genuine thing,
too-seats that the Roman senator had
sat in while he thought Of his speech;
cold, hard stone seats that they sat In
on wlntry mornings in December with
nothing between them aud the not
blooded Roman but q cotton toga.
Is It any wonder that Rome fell and
that ''the barbarian Goth stabbed his
horse In the place Of the Cesars?"
Chiswick House Is most richly deco
rated in white and gold, with beautiful
~ painted ceilings done by Italian art
lists Of 200 years ago. The grounds are
laid out in a magnificent park OF 90
acres. Here Pope vas a constant u 81,

the very stoop Of his shoulders. Why
had he come back alone? What further
business had he with the bloke which
he could not have done when Taras was
with him? These questions u
my faculties into unwonted energy.
Once more I slipped around to the DacK
Of the house and up the balcony Into
the room behind the bar.
Drigo was talking to Putty, put IN
such a low key that l could max noth-
ing Of the sounds that reached me. L
caught a glimpse Of them through the
crack OF the door-their two villainous
heads close together over the oar-and
drew as neal as l dared, yet still lconl
distinguish no words.
"But what are you going to do with
him then?" Putty asked, and his voice,
though low, was distinct enough-per-
haps because l was more used 10 1t.
II could not gather the reply; but,
raising his voice to give emphasis to the
offer. I heard this clearly:
"He offered you &5; I'll give you
double, and you can betrsy Us to the
police If we don't pay up"

Drigo ~silenced him with a long "hist,"
and stepping sideways to cast a glance
into the parlor he caught sight OF me.
He gave the alarm to Putty in a hurried
tone of terror, and the next moment a
pewter pot flew at my head. l was
quick enough TO duck and avoid the
Missile Init 7 only escaped falling into
the savage hands Of the bloke By fling
ing myself over the balcony and falling
into the mud below.
Don't let me get nigh you this side
Of next month, you -, or I'll pull the

his fist down at me as l skunk of around
a stranded barge.

Twas lazing on the rotten balcony
before the busy front Of the Mariners
JOY when I first saw Taras. he came
from Ferryboat alley, the passage run
ming between the Joy and BaxterS
wharf and leading to the steps where
the old ferry used TO ply, between thai
part Of ShadWell and ROtherhithe, ana
another man was With him named
Drigo. Taras was a fine, big man, Ialr'
with a long tawny muStache aud q snort
beard. He was dressed like a workman
In a dark gray suit, a flannel shirt D
q blue handkerchief for a tie, but ne
didn't look like q workman for all tha'
at any rate not such as you see do"l
ShadWell way. He was too clean an
active for that. Drigo was not q OH
like him, being middle-aged, meager'
with a stOOp in his shoulders, o nav
ing a yellow face, with high cheeh
bones, a sparse black beard aud slant
Ing eyes. Men like him are common
enough about Mapping % the HIgn-
way.
They walked down 20 the stairs, anc
Drigo pointed across toward the Com
mercial docks, but / could not make OUT
what he said. Taras nodded, and they
turned round and looked ~attentively at
the Mariners Joy and and then at Bax-
ter's wharf on the right and Johnson.S
yard at the left, DrigO talking with
great earnestuess 10 a low voice all the
while and Taras listening gravely as be
smoked his pipe aud replying only with
q word a nod OF his head from time 10
time. I couldn't make out what they
found 20 interest them, for BaXter's
wharf was shut up-and had been shut
ID for years-and there was nothing 10
JOhnsOn's yard but a great heap Of rust
Ing boilers and old iron. As for the
Mariners Joy, with its broken windows,
the gaping planks OF its bay front and
the rotten balcony projecting over the
muddy f0reshore, there was nothing In
that 70 attract attention. They saw
me, and DrigO made a joke az my ex-
pense, / believe, for be chuckled as he
tared st me, but Taras smoked on
ravely and never smiled.
\ AT length they Quilted the steps and
came up Ferryboat alley, and a minute
or two a1terward l heard them open the
door 10 Sweet Apple lane aud enter
the sauded bar. i went In through the
bar parlOr % serve them.
"G.ve US some gin, miss, " said Drlgo,
speaking with an odd accent.

We are informed that A. NJ. Avery
has taken unto himself a partner and
help-mate. The happy couple have
our warmest congratulations.
The monthly meeting of the Sunday
School Convention of Fremont will be
held at the Teets' school horse on
Sunday, March 26, at 2p.M. 1t is to be
hoped that al interested in the good
work will try and attend.
VIM. Mcintyre, VIM. II. Mckenzie,
Geo. w. Bradshaw and several other
local celebrities spent the last hours
of the last day of last week in Cros-
we'll. We are glad to say they event
ally reached home in safety.
The community was startled on
Monday by the announcement of the
death of Mrs. Arthur Avery. Al
though she had been indisposed for
quite while, her death seemed quite
a shock to her friends and relatives,
1t will be remembered her husband
died less than three months ago, and
the successive removal of those two of
the earliest settlers of this locality will
leave quite void IN the community.
The funeral services were held in the
M. +. church at Roseburg on Wednes-
day, Rev. G. Nicholson officiating.
Our spring poet IS just woke up,
when people thought him dead, he
stretched himself and gave yawn,
and this is what he said: Clown
meeting time is coming on, when all
good men should hustle and throw
off sloth and brace themselves to meet
this yearly tussle. There are many
good men in the field, you'll find this
by comparing, with names already
known to fame, their patriotic daring.
Could Tallyrand peep from his grave,
he'd smile with satisfaction, to see
what diplomatic zeal controls their
every action. There's Gerkin, Lawson,
Conroy, Todd, and X. Il. Moore we
then see, while last, not least upon the
list, is VIM. III. Mckenzie. So let none
sit at home and growl; DER chores and
cares remote, take down your canes,
put on your hats, and go to the hall
and vote.
