However, it must be added in Barney's
favor that this feeling OF being perhaps a
trife too much sought after was but transi-
tory, and that il did not for a moment inter-
fere with his action. He pulled up his team
with a suddenneAs that caused the front
horse to turn round and face its driver, throw
the reins to his groom, and jumped down
with a grace and celebrity as charming in its
way as was his driving. The groom olsen
tangled the horses as Barney accosted Edna
with that urbanity which was perhaps his
distinguishing characteristic. The girl
seemed surprised to see him, and was plainly
more than a little embarrassed,

! girl.

of all rules-and of most other things as

Edna blushed when he spoke OF the
breaking of rules; then she lifted her hon

Barney was forced to content himself with
this, and he reluctantly ordered the groom
to take the horses to the stables.
The two walked along the parade to the
most sheltered seat, where they sat down to-
gether. The young mans mind was In a
whirl; the GOODNESS OF his reception excited

had thought, UP to that time, was his for

FOR MEN.

There will be no material change in even
ing clothes. The Tuxedo suit will be the
proper thing at the summer resorts at
functions that may be termed semi-cere-
monious. The Tuxedo should be made of
black or dark gray worsteds or cheyiots,
and the trousers should be more heavily
braided than the trousers of the regulation
evening dress.
The clerical vest should be of worsted.
The left side overlaps the right the fore
parts are cut on the fold of the cloth nearly
to the scye and to within one inch of the back
part at the bottom. The collar is whole
at the front, and closes at the side of the
neck where the left shoulder buttons to
tho right. The edges are single-stitched
close, and the length averages twenty-five
and one-half inches.
For spring wear the double-breasted sack
will, as a rule, be made from cheyiots in
stripes, checks, plaids or their combina-
tions, but plain dark cheyiots for the coat
and vest, and a fancy material for the trous-
crs, or the cheyiOt for the coat and trous-
ers and a fancy yesting for the vest, will
be the more tasteful. For midsummer wear
plain serges, thin homespuns and white
hannels will be the fayorites.
The single-breasted sack coat Is to be
the thing for every man who wants to dress
well and comfortably, and the style that
promises to be the most popular will be
the three-button cutaway, showing Just an
edge of the vest below the lowest button.
There will be a center seam In the back
unless the material is of a light tex
ture or a large plaid. The short collar OF
last year is to be superseded by a long
collar.
The covert coat and four-button cutaway
sack suit is to be one of the fashionable
fancies Of the season. The suit Will be OF
plaid cheyiot and the covert coat half box
in style and from thirty-three to thirty-four
inches long. The back is to be wider at the
waist, and there will be no underarm cut
The trousers will not differ materially from
the present style, except that they will APP
proach more closely the peg top pattern,

CHAPTER XVI.

Barney Hope drove his tandem up and
down the parade, to the glory OF Eastbourne,
but with small satisfaction to himself, He
did not care for the admiration or those
who were strangers to him. Although his
state was princely, and had all the exclusive
ness which attends princeliness, 1t was a
condition Of things not at all to the liking
of SO companlonable a man as Barney HIS
magnificent plan, which gave empl oyment
TO an amateur gardener, had apparently mis-
carried, for no word came from the girl at
the school, and whatever attractions the
tandem had for other inhabitants OF East
bourne. it certainly seemed that Edna Sart-
we'll did not share them, at least sufficiently
TO arrange for a drive with the young man,
and any OF her companions who dared TO
break the rules of the school for the giddy
whirl Of his lofty vehicle. Barney cursed his
luck and also his messenger. He was sure
il was Marsten's fault; some clumsiness on
! his part had undoubtedly spoiled everything,
Now that Barney thought over Marsten's
demeanor when he returned he saw-what
he should have seen at the time, from the
runness and shOrtness OF the fellows an
swers-that he had made a mess oil II some
how and was ashamed to confess his failure
Marsten had merely contented himself by
saying TO Barney than he had delivered the
letter unseen and that the girl had given
him no message to take back. Barney could
get no satisfying particulars from him re-
| garding the incidents OF the meeting. Had

TO REPORT
Carriers on the Congo.

From the journals of the late q. J. Glave.
who died after crossing Africa to investi-
gate the slave trade for the Century, a fnal
paper has been prepared. entitled "Cruelty
in the Congo Free State" and 1t Is printed
In the September Century. Mr.. Glave says:
To-day ] saw the dead body of a carrier
lying on the trail. There could have been no
mistake about his being a sick man; he was
nothing but skin and bones. These posts
ought to give some care TO the porters; the
heartless disregard for life is abominable.
Two days ago a native applied to me for
medicine and food: he was Ill and starving.
The same day met a poor liberated slave,
emaciated. with nothing to eat. gave him
he was poor wretch stolen from i far
away home. Native life is considered Of no
value by the Belgians. No wonder the state
is hated. Carrying is pushed to such an ex-
tent that 1t is killing the people. They are
on the road the whole time, without rest to
enable them to recuperate and get strong
after each trip. Often the mission stations
applied to for succor; but. a rule,
when the carriers present themselves they
are thoroughly overcome by the exertiOn Of
carrying a load when ILL., and they generally
die. Formerly the state sent out its soldiers
to tie up the women when the people re-
fused to come in as carriers. This has now
been stopped. Soon the railway will be fin
transport considerably. If the service from
Lukunga to Lufu can be arranged as regards
pay with the natives. The Belgians often
ask what will the Bakongo people do when
the railway is finished. What did they do
before the white man came to rule them?
Did they die of hunger and lie unburied on
the road?

make that place my base of supplies.
"On the last trip l made arrange
ments with Arctic highlanders, a tribe
of Esquimaux consisting of go men,
women and children, known as the
most northerly tribe of human beings
on earth. to put in this coming winter
in obtaining seal. bear and deer skins
for our clothing and in securing all the
walrus meat they can for dog food. /
have singled out eight young men of
the tribe. with their wives. canoes,
dogs. sleighs and tents. to accompany
me to Sherard Osborne ford. which is
about 800 miles north of their present
abode.
MY party will consist of surgeon.
possibly another white man and my
SELF the rest will be Esquimaux. The
latter know how to drive dogs, they
can go hungry. and know how to get
food
THE conditions under which l shall
make the coming expedition are of the
most satisfactory character. The
American Geographical Society has as
sured me $150.OO0 to meet all ex-
penses and l have been given five
years leave of absence. / shall prob
ably buy a new ship for next year,
though we may use the Hope again.
Mrs. Peary will not accompany me.
Il am quite sure that / shall succeed
in reaching The pole. Nansen got with

have one chance in one thousand when
he started to drift over the pole. 1
don't think Andree will accomplish
anything. and he must have lost his
life before this in his attempt"
