BADLY FRIGHTENED.
The Fear of Residents In the Tropics Of
Tarantulas.

The Fear of Residents In the Tropics Of
Tarantulas.
Dwellers in the tropics must con-
stantly guard against the many poison
GUS insects and reptiles which Turk in
crevices and damp corners. The cent?
pede, for example, is sunpleasantly social
in habits, while its dread neighbor, the
tarantula, whose bite means paralysis
or death, frequents old houses as well
as stables and courtyards
We had fright the other day, writes
lady from the West Indies, which has
made me very particular about search
ing our sleeping-rooms. 1t all arose
from the ramblings of a small centipede,
who would not stay at home, but wan

Her face was so swollen and painful

ourselves. l know that when went

CHAPTER III.

Night comes, and the streets of the
old town grow more quiet. Men have
cheered themselves hoarse, and intense
excitement has wearied everybody. An
even 90 men have signed the roll, and
more will come in tomorrow. The re-
cruiting Office has been closed by the re-
moval Of the table and the departure of
the captain. With that officer we have
little to do. With the man in citizens
clothes who assisted him we have much.
Let me introduce to you as he sits on
the veranda Of the village inn Duke
Wyle, 25 years of age, bachelor, the
only son OF ox.J Udge Wyle, the nabob
of the village and county. The young
man has been educated for nothing in
particular. He has done nothing in
particular since he left college.
"Duke9 oh, Dukes all right" was
the reply TO any half meant criticism.
THE old mans got plenty of money,
and Duke Is his heir. Good boy, that
Duke. Likes to hunt and ride and is
little wild, but he'll steady down after
a bit. Don't you worry about Duke."
And when the news of war came
Duke found the excitement his nature
craved. When the volunteer company
was full, he was to be its first ieuten-
ant. He and Royal Kenton were ac-
quaintances, but not friends. In the be-
ginning they had been attracted toward
each other, and there was promise of
close intimacy. But no two men can
love the same woman and be friends
be anything less than enemies. Both
were frequent callers at the old man
sion standing at the head OF the long
street, in which resided the widow and
daughter OF the late Hon. John Percy,
one OF Virginia's oldest and wisest SEN
ators and statesmen. III Marian favored
either one, If she was interested in any
one of her numerous callers, no sign of
had been given. Ken
ton and Wyle were only two out Of
twenty. and yet IL seemed to be general
ly understood that she would ultimately
favor one or the other.
