and Mrs. Keasbey and Dorilla, assisted
by Mickey, cleared up after them in a
few minutes. Mikey was very gentle
that night Even Mrs. Keasbey, who
was always short" with him, in spite
of his solicitous efforts to please her,
could not help softening little when
she saw how deft and kind he was, but
when she marked the glances which
passed between him and Dorilla, her
anger rose again.
"It will take more than Thomas
thinks to part those two," she mused.
But in her soul she felt sure, after all,
that the iron will Of her husband would
effect his purpose. 1t did not seem to
her than anything could be stronger
than he.
Mikey at last joined them in the par
lor, into which the door stood open.
Dorilla could hear that the talking
which was going on there was excited,
though it was subdued in tone.
Mrs. Keasbey declared that she was
so tired she couldn't sit up moment
longer and pottered off to her room
upstairs. 1t was only 8 o'clock, but
she recommended that Dorilla should
go to bed also. The girl obediently fol-
lowed up the stairs and shut the door
of her room behind her. She heard her
! mother moving about on the other side
of the partition. Then all was silent
there, but Dorilla herself made no
| preparations to retire for the night. In
stead, she sat by the open window gaz-
| ing into the warm darkness, and lis
| tening to the rustling of the pines.
After awhile she went out and sat on
the stairway.
Thomas Keasbey had heard his wife
and daughter depart for their rooms,
and he supposed that by this time they
were sound asleep. He was therefore
talking unreservedly with the men in
the parlor. Dorilla could hear almost
every word which was said there. She
heard directions given for the use of
the explosives by means of which the
bank safe was to be blown open, and
what was to be done with the booty,
when the job was completed and the
smoke had cleared away. Then words
fell from Mil1ey which made her blood
run cold.

self ready to go to the village. When
she had her hat and gloves on, he brief
ly outlined her errand.
II am thinking of putting up a block
OF buildings myself" he concluded,
with wink at his wife.
Then why don't you go to the peo-
pie who built this, and ask them for
the plan?" she inquired, with the
cloudy look in her eyes which always
came when she was deeply moved.
Il can't afford 1t, you little goose"
he answered with a laugh. "They
would charge me big money"
Dorilla turned; slowly walked over
the hill to the village; did her errand,
and gave the plan to her father, having
finished 1t as soon as she was we'll con-
cealed by the trees on her way home;
but she felt vaguely uncomfortab BILE
over what she had done. and she went
back into the woods after little and
sat there on rock thinking for a long
time.
In her thought she lived over her
life again. She remembered how fond
ly she had adored her father before
years there, she had seen little of him.
She had usually spent her vacations
with the sisters, wha had made pet of
her. Now and then she had staid with
her father and mother at some hotel
The quality of these hotels had de-
clined steadily during the last two
years, and Thomas Kearbey had grown
glomy and irritable. Still, when he

had brought her beautiful presents,
and at the hotels. he had been fond
and proud of her. and she had still
| loved him.
This summer, however, during the
ten or twelve weeks since the Keasbeys
had moved into the Pine hill house,
| Dorilla's feelings toward her father
had undergone change. He was still
| kind to her and to her mother, when
he was himself; but he often drank
| deeply-especially when the five or six
| friends whom he called his business
| partners" came out to spend the night
with him. Dorilla could dimly recol-
| leet such scenes far back in her child
hood, but she had not known them in
recent years, and they shocked her.
Her lessons in the school house had
lent a new force to moral convictions
formed in the convent. They and the
indirect influence Of Mrs. Coils Woods,

A RIVER IN ARCADIA.

Beneath Arcadian skies Of blue
And romance haunted air.
The tangled mountain woodlands through,
'Twixt moss-grown banks where NAL
den hair
Uncurls its fronds of lacework rare
From rock to rock and pool to pool
Where light the shadows quiver,
With depths all clear ami waters cool,
From down the laughing river.
Here, where II widens broad and deep,
When Already was new,
The Indian drove with graceful sweep
His frail built bark canoe;
And, treading lightly to the brink
OF some deep shaded pool,
The stag, broad antlered, stopped to drink
The waters clear and cool:
While played the sunbeams to and fro
With many a glancing culver,
And now in haste, and now more slow,
Flowed on the shining river.
Slow lettering through the meadows
green,
AS il to catch the gladness
OF sun-kissed grass ard emerald sheen,
Reflected back in sadness;
Then leaping like a thing possessed,
A demon struck with madness!
From rock to rock foaming swirl
OF waters sweeping down,
From bank to bank a seething whirl
A curling torrent brown;
Till, prisoned in a depthless pool,
With many rippling quiver,
Again serene, meath shadows cool
Flows on the peaceful river.

wrong. At any rate, will think about
it a little longer before 1 make any
change"
One day, late in September Thomas
Keasbey, who was at home oftener
now than during the summer, asked
Dorilla to do a strange errand, strange
event to her, who was accustomed to
strange errands. She was expert with
her pencil. He wished her to visit the
rooms of the Woman's exchange in the
village, buy few articles there, and
take such notice of the rooms that she
could make an accurate plan of them
afterward.
'The Womane exchange rooms were
situated on the second and top floor of
what was called "the Bank block" in
the village. They were three or four
in number, and were under the charge
of charitable organization of women
prominent among whom was Mrs. Col
lis Wood. Preserves, sweetmeats and
needle-work were sold there, as in
most such places. In one room there
was sort of an intelligence office-in
another, a small public library. In the
summer there was a good many city
boarders in the vicinity, who patronized

aged, and had more than paid for itself
besides aiding many poor women.
Directly underneath these rooms was
the village bank, one of the richest and
best-conducted country banks in the
state. Mr.. Coils Wood was the CASH
Ter. He was young man, but he had
grown up in the business and under
stood 1t thoroughly. He had married
the daughter of the bank president.
Altogether, he possessed a social and
business standing second to none in
the place.
Through a man who had assisted in
the building of the bank, Thomas Keas-
bey had ascertained that a steel ceiling
just above it was topped by layer of
cement, three feet in thickness. This
cement was as hard as marble Weeks
might be required, with the limit of
available hours per night, and with the
only tools which could be used in such
case, to cut hole through such a
ceiling, large enough to admit the body
OF man-yet such hole Mr.. Keasbey
proposed to make. He had secured q
complete plan of the bank. Now he
must get the exact plan of the rooms
above it. His daughter, with her re-
fined face, quick eye and skillful hand
was just the one to do the work un-
suspected-if he could only get her to
undertake 1t.
