| was woman In middle life, tall and
stately. She. with her only daughte,
Violet, had spent the previous summer
in the Catskill mountains, at the
Blake House." Familiarity known as
"Blake's." There they had met Mr..
Harrington Dudley, a young gentleman
spending his vacation at the same
house He was a fine-lookinR fellow,
tall, broad-shouldered and deep
chested, and, as of necessity the young
people were thrown much together, be

friends
Mrs Radley rather took fancy to
the young man herself, and when part
ing, at the end of his vacation. she in.
vited him to call on them in their New
York home.
His return to the metropolis was fol-
lowed almost immediately by a lengthy
business trip to the west-he was trav-
eler for large electric goods frm-and
after six months absence he had
fastened to renew the pleasant &C
quaintance Of the summer by calling
on the mother and daughter at their
comfortable. but not interpretations,
apartments on West Seventy-second
street
While Dudley was engaged in con-
versation with the mother. there was a
rustic of silk, and Violet Hadley swept
into the room, her great beauty being
enhanced by the deep rose- tint which
dyed her cheeks and the animated
smile which played about her lips.
showing her pleasure at meeting him
again.
Soon after this, her mother was
called away. and the young people
were left gayly chatting in each others
company.

to throw stones at, and never could hit!
And the funny old farmer!'' she an
swered, with her ripping laugh, which
reminded him of the brook he had just
spoken of. Don't you remember how
he told us it was not quite mile to the
turnpike and it proved to be- over
four?"
Then they both laughed over their
and he went ON, more
seriously:
Il have been thinking of the last
walk we took together over that route,
and what you said to me. You remem-

The young lady did not answer at
once. A great change had come over
her. All the rose-pink had departed
from her cheeks, and her face seemed
almost haggard. At last she spoke, in
SO low . tone that he could scarcely
hear her:

cry that the huge span was about tc
fall into the water below, and the
crowds had surged back to avoid the
involuntary plunge.
Gradually, the mass became denscr.
Those in front pressed back upon those
urging them on from the rear. Then
an awful cry flew from mouth to

'The steps! The steps,"
And Violet-gentle, fragile little Vic
let? Crushed and pushed along the
heavy railing. she was slowly but sure

helpless, almost fainting, she could do
nothing to avert her impending doom.
She closed her eyes and waited, expect

beneath her feet and be precipitated
into the seething human cauldron be-

Was it not strange that her cruel
words to Harrington Dudley should
have occurred to her memory at that
moment?

would then prove his heroism. Perhaps
he would risk his life for hers; per-

The crowd surged back again. The
pressure was unbearable.

blackness-
Here officer! Bring your plank this
way" cried Harrington.
With one end Of stout plank ON the
pathway and the other on q stalwart
policeman's shoulder, who braced him
self on the ties Of the railroad beneath,
Dudley, with Violet in his arms, slid
across the bending support. and leaped
for life. 1t was perllous venture, but
he landed safely on tho solid roadbed,
and the next moment was bearing his
precious burden to q cab and rafting
away toward Seventy-second street
Attracted by similar curiosity to that
which led Violet to cross the bridge, he
had passed into the Brooklyn entrance
and become involved in the crush BY

the broad railing and was seeking q

The next day Harrington called at
the Hadleys. The mother opened the
door for him and said:
Il am so glad you have come, Mr..
Dudley. Violet wants SO badly TO see
