CHAPTER VIII.

Somehow or other, by hook and
crook, and between the three OF U.S.,
we got Bernard Huddlestone bundled
upstairs and laid upon the bed In my
Uncle's Room" During the whole proc
eBs, which was rough enough, he gave
no sign OF consciousness, and he re-
mained. as we had thrown him, with
out changing the position of a Anger.
His daughter opened hls shirt and be-
gan 10 wet HIS head and bosom, while
Northmour and ran to the window
The weather continued clear; tho
moon, which was now about full. had
risen and shed clear light upon the
links yet strain our eyes as we might,
We could distinguish nothing moving.
THANK God" said Northmour. "Ag-
gle ia not coming tonight"
Agile was the name Of the old
nurse, He had not thought OF her till
now; but that he should think Of her
at oil was trait that surprised me In
the man.
We were again reduced 10 waiting.
Northmour went to the fireplace and
spread his hands before the red en-
bers, as II he were cold. followed
him mechanically with my eyes. and In
no doing turned my back upon the
window. AZ that moment very faint
report was audible from without, and
a ball shivered a pane OF glass, and
buried Itself In the shutter two inches
from my head. I heard Clara scream.
and though whipped instantly out OF
range and into corner she was there,
80 to speak, before me, beseeching to
know II were hurt. continued to
reassure her, with the tenderest caress-
es and In complete forsetfulness Of our
situation, till the voice Of Northmour
recalled me TO myself,
There Is one point that we must
know" said he. Are they going to
butcher the lot OF us, or only Huddle-
stone? Did they take you for him, or
fire at you for your own beaux yeaux?"
"They took me for him, for certain"
replied. II am near as tall. and my
head is fair"
IL am going to make sure" returned
Northmour, and he stepped up to the
window, holding the lamp above his
head, and stood there, quietly affront-
Ing death, for half a minute.
"Yes," said Northmour, turning cool
ly from the window "it's only Huddle-
stone they want"
ooh, Mr.. Northmourl" cried Clara;
but found no more to add, the temerity
she had Just witnessed seeming beyond
the reach Of words.
He, on his part, looked at me, cock
ing his head with q fire of triumph In
his eyes; and understood at once that
he had thus hazarded his life merely
to attract Clara's notice, and depose
me from my position as the hero OF
the hour He snapped his fingers.
"The fire is only beginning" he said.

CHAPTER VII

The recollection OF that Afternoon
will always be craven on my mind. W.
debated over and over again my pro
posal with regard to the money, ant
had we been In complete possession o.
our faculties / am sure we should have
condemned It as unwise; but we were
Mustered with alarm, grasped at Q
straw and determined, although 1t was
as much as advertising Mr.. Huddle.
stones presence In the pavilion, to car
~ my proposal into effect.
The sum was part in specie, part In
bank paper and part In circular notes,
payable to the name Of James Gregory.
We took II out, counted 1t, inclosed II
once more In dlspatch-box belonging
to Northmour and prepared letter In
Italian which he tied to the handle. 1t
was signed by both of us under oath,
and declared that this was all the
money which had escaped the failure Of
the house Of Huddlestone. This was,
perhaps, the maddest action ever per-
petrated by two persons protesting to
be sane.
Had the dispatch-box fallen into 9TH
err hands than those for which 1t was
intended, we stood crlminally convict
ed on our own written testimony; but,
as have said, we were neither of us
In condition to Judge soberly, and
had thirst for action that drove us
to do something, right or wrong, rather
than endure the agony Of waiting,
Moreover as we were both convinced
that the hollows of the links were alive
with hidden spies upon our movements,
we hoped that our appearance with the
box might lead to parley, and, per-
haps, compromise.
It was nearly 3 when we issued from
the pavilion. The rain had taken off;
the sun shone quite cheerfully. have
never seen the gulls fly so close about
the house or approach so fearlessly
to human beings. On the very door
step one tapped heavily past our heads,
and uttered It's wild cry in my very
ear.
"There Is an omen for you" said
Northmour, who, like all freethinkers,
was much under the influence of su-
perstition. "They think we are al
ready dead"
made some light rejoinder but 1t
was with half my heart, for the cir
cumstance had impressed me.
A yard or two before the gate, on
patch OF smooth turf, we set down the
dispatch and Northmour waived
white handkerchief over his head.
Nothing replied. We raised our volc-
es, and cried aloud in Italian that we
were there as ambassadors to arrange
the quarrel; but the stiffness remained
unbroken save by the sea-gulls and the
surf. l had a weight at my heart when
we deslsted, and saw that even North
mour was unusually pale. He looked
over his shoulder nervously, as though
he feared that some one had crept be-
tween him and the pavilion door.

with his head, as though he had been
afraid to point.

LOVE AMONG LAPLANDERs.


Curious Customs In Vogue Among In
habitants of tho Icy Land.
When young Laplander is in love
with girl he and she run a race. He
is heavily handicapped, so that she
may win II she chooses and IL she out
run him he cannot propose again. or
course she suffers herself to be over
taken II she cares for him, but the con-
sent Of her parents must be obtained
before she can be married. The law OF
the land Is very strict on this point, and
In olden times the man was subject to
capital punishment IL he married with
out the consent of the girls parents.
After Laplander has chosen bride
he sends her present OF a girdle, a
ring and quantity Of brandy; he goes
30 far as the door of her hut, but re-
mains outside until invited to enter,
when bumper Of brandy Is offered to
the girls father; II he drinks 1t 1t is
sign he consents to the marriage, and
the young lover then promises to give
the girl some clothes, and pays sum
OF money, generally 100 copper dollars,
on the spot. This, Of course, Is rem
nant Of marriage by purchase, which,
In primitive times. succeeded marriage
by capture. Banns are published once
In Lapland and the marriage ceremony
Ia very short. The bride wears her hair
loose and has a gold band round her
head. Her presents and her dowry arc
generally reindeer, and she and her
bridegroom remain with her parents
for year after marriage.
