certain measure of rough entreaty, as
l thought, I'VE will not be cozened.
We have rights here. Nay, to come to
the heart of the matter, we want the
old don and the woman. We pursued
them yesterday, and but for twist
of luck at the pinch would have had
them. 1 myself all but secured the
young senorita. You will perceive.
therefore, that we have the first right
here, and, like sensible men, will aban

the final proof, the owner of this
house is Don Enrique de Cavodilla, and
it was his niece-though my memory
halts at her name-thatIlai laidhands on.

Mr.. lynn turned back to us, his coun-
tenancc grown serious.

We were compelled to agree with
him, and without further words he un-
barred and opened the door.
Towland and his men sullenly
pressed in, and, we giving back, they
quickly filled all the fore part of the
hall. Towland looked at us with q
lowering brow, but said nothing, and
the men after brief staring about
made forward and began to scatter
over the house. Towland seemed to
hang in the wind for bit, and at first
thought he meant to say something
to us, but il so he changed his mind,
for. in the end, he wheeled about and
followed some of his crew up the
stairs.
We exchanged significant glances,
but for little did not bulge, wishing
to avoid any dangerous seeming OF
haste. At last as none of the men re-
turnedr-the most Of, them were now
above, where we could hear them
knocking about and calling to one an
other--we passed whispered word
and all stole quietly out. As we made
down the walk heard considerable
noise, and thought that the men were

The leader is that ferocious Tow

As he did so the gang appeared to halt,
and the voice of the fierce captain
hailed us:
"Within, there How dare you hold
thus against us? Open, or it will go
very i'll with you'll"
"And why say you so?" Mr.. lynn i'm
mediately put his face to the wicket
and coolly answered. Have we not as
good right to the loot of this place
as you?"
"Why, tits the little graybeard!"
cried one man; and at that they made
stir of their arms, letting the butts
of their guns fall, and there was bit
of silence.

people were in possession" heard
Towland then, in surly and vexed
tone, reply. Nevertheless" he went
on, ''we have the right to come in, so
open the door,"
"Why, look you," answered Mr.. lynn
and could see by the wrinkling of his
side face that he was smiling-"I can
not recall that there is any rule against
boiling and barring. Suppose one
were intent on the capture of a slave,
for instance, must he needs let every
body in while he is about it? Slaves,
you are aware, are not common spoil.

"Nay, this is all idle talk and away
from the purpose!" said Towland, i'm
patiently, "Open the door, and be
speedy about it, or the business will
reach further than words!"
"Let me at least confer with my
friends" answered Mr.. Tym, still
speaking moderately. II am not alone

Lifetime of n hook.

Books printed four centuries ago
still exist, with their paper in good
condition, but If the committee recent
ly appointed by the Society of Arts in
London to study the deterioration Of
modern paper is not seriously mis-
taken, multitudes of books printed to-
day will be very short-lived. Perhaps,
in many cases, that fact is not to be
regretted. If bad and worthless books
could always be printed on paper that
in a few years turns to dust, and good
books always on enduring paper, the
makers of bad paper would, after all,
be benefactors of the public. The com
mittee referred to finds that paper
containing mechanical, or ground,
wood pulp especially, tends to both dis
integration and discoloration. Papers
consisting mainly of fibers of cotton,
fax and hemp are the most lasting

demolshing some doors or partitions,
but fortunately no further heed
seemed to be paid tous.
Fetching at last into the street, we
turned in the direction of the water
and pushed along at sharp walk. 1t
was in all our minds, though we stayed
not to talk about it, to gain the first
leftward street or passage, and
thence continue till we obtained some
knowledge or were satisfied of the
safety of the fugitives. We at last
came to the leftward turning street,
and gladly turned the corner, and
broke into a run.
81 think they have got fairly off,"
said the captain with a breath of re-
lief. at is clear the buccaneers have
not yet penetrated to this quarter, and
the time is more than sufficient to
fetch the beach"
81 would not croak," said l, "but I
am less hopeful. There is the guard on
the ships, who might easily espy them,
and then our struggling parties are
poking about in all directions"

but to continue to the water side, and
proceed little way from there to-
ward this fisher village. If we see and
hear nothing amiss we may rest in
reasonable content that they are
safe"
swell, we would not turn back
without that assurance" said |. Let
us proceed"
We pushed on down this street, ac-
cordingly, and when we had come into
the next turned to the left, and so con-
tinued to the outskirts of the town.
We learned nothing of moment, or
touching the business in hand, and,
thinking it of no use to proceed far
ther, and, indeed, supposing it might
not be prudent to do so Qest we might
be spied upon by some of Towland's
party, we descended to the beach, and
SO walked for time up and down.
After some little time, 1t being now
near noon, and we beginning to be
hungry, we thought it best to return
to the castle. We bent our steps that
way, therefore, and might have pro-
ceeded a fourth part of the distance
when Mac Ivrach suddenly gave lit
tie cry.
Look yonner! Nay, nay! as
amissl"
We hastily sprang to his side, for he
was standing at the moment on bit
of ledge, while we were below, and to
our horror discovered what it was that
had fetched out the cry. In a kind of
little depression, and partly hidden by
the overhanging crest of the ledge,
lay the corpse of Don Enrique de Cavo-
dilla!

"Senor," interposed Dona Carmen.

"You are brave, senorita," said, for
l could not help admiring this com
mand of her wits at such time. 'But
I fear your plan wouldnot serve. For
one thing, where would you obtain a
boat? Our men must have seized them
all"
She faltered moment, but again
her wonderful dark eyes lighted, and
she answered eagerly:
"But the fisher village? l conceive
there must be boats there. 1t is above
half a league from here, and / am sure
your bands have notgone so far. More
over, it has nothing to tempt robbery.
All, could we but reach the village!"

be mortally compassed." | cried in a
burst of great pity and compassion.
"Stay a moment" | went on, "and

NIGHTCApPED BEFORE QUEEN.
The Complaining Earl of Sussex Was
Given n Most ExtraOrdl-
nary Privilege.
[To DE Continued

To the earl of Sussex was granted
the privilege Of wearing a nightcap in
the royal presence of Queen Mary. The
fact is mentioned in Miss Strickland's
"Lives of the Queens of England as
being one of the odd rewards bestowed
by Mary upon her friends after her ac-
cession.
The earl was a valetudinarian, and
had a great fear of hncovering his
head. Considering, therefore, that the
colds he dreaded respected no person,
he petitioned Queen Mary for leave to
wear a nightcap in her presence.
The queen not only gave him leave to
wear one, but two nightcaps if he
pleased. His patent for this privilege
Is s>nnique in royal annals.
"Xnow ye that we grant to our we'll
beloved and trusty cousin and coun-
cilor, Henry, earl of Sussex, license and
pardon to wear his cap, Golf or night
cap, or any two Of them at his pleas
ure, as well in our presence as in the
presence Of any other person within
this realm, or in any other place in our
dominions whatsoever during his life,
and these our letters shall be sufficient
warrant in his behalf"
The queens seal, with the garter
above it, was affixed to this singular
grant.
Three persons in Great Britain alone
enjoy the privilege of remaining COW
cred in the royal presence-namely,
Lord Forester, Lord Kinsale and the
master of Trinity college, Cambridge.

A THOUGHT OF REST.

In the white mansions OF our God
Are the pleasures sweet and fair:
No soul that bows beneath the rod
Hath ever sorrowing there.
Each gale breathes balm" and all the lost
No moreno more are tempest-tossed.
In the white mansions Of our God
We miss the souls despair;
Lilies that wither on earth's sod
Bloom in rare beauty there.
And pleasant there, to all our feet,
Are paths that lead to waters sweet
In the white mansions of our God
Are lights that steadfast beam.
Weary of all the way we've trod
Wen lay us down to dream.
To dream dear dreams of peace and rest
Like children on mothers breast.

with the agreement among themselves thai
they would say absolutely nothing about
their examinations and the conclusions that
they reached while in the National Capital.
They would give out nothing about their
interview with the President, and there should
be no expression whatever OF their views until
their report was presented to the National
Encampnent. This was eminently right
and proper. They felt that they had only
got a portion of the facts during their hurried
visit-probably only very small portion;
they vented time TO digest these and gather
more Any expression would be premature
and run great danger OF being wrong. THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE saw the wisdom OF
this, and carefully respected the wishes OF the
Commander in Chief and Committee.
But Mr.. Evans could not restrain himself
He Immediately set his press bureau 10 work
telegraphing all over the country that the
Committee had "vindicated" him; that they

that they had discovered that the faults were
in the law. and in the rulings OF the Depart

This was indecent treatment OF the Com
mittce. 1t was unjust and positively insult
ing. Unfortunately, great many veterans
who read these things believed them, and
felt indignant that the Commissioner should
be "vindcated" after such cursory investiga
ton. These comrades should have long ago
learned to look with great suspicion upon
everything emanating from Evans's literary
bureau, which has been actively slandcring
them now for over two years.
There was the usual amusing feature about
p.esc literary efforts of Mr.. Evans. Many
= the first dispatches showed tendency to
Srow the whole responsibility for all that
might have been complained Of upon the
Secretary OF the Interior, who was alleged
to have constantly restrained the Commis
sioner from acting with greater liberality.
Then it occurred to Evans or he was reminded
that this was official inSubordination which
might bring him trouble. and the talk about
