DICK RODNEY;
Or The Adventures Of
M..e An Eton Boy.
by JAMES GRANT. u
CHAPTER II.-(ContInued.) J
az JAMES GRANT.

CHAPTER H. (COntinued,)
Now | began TO be asaailed by that
Illness, which terror and anxiety had
hitherto but partially repreSsed--a vio-
lent. seasickness In all Its horror.
Afraid of being washed from the deck,
over which the waves were breaking
now, once more crept In %retchedness
below. ..
Before descending, | cast despair
Ing glance at the loosening sail which
etill caught the wind; II was source
Of increasing danger which | dared not
attempt to remedy, even had strength
TO have done 80, for the wet deck was
now sloplng like the roof Of q house,
and I would assuredly have fallen into
the sea to leeward. After several feeble
efforts, | succeeded in partially closing
the companion hatch, for warmth and
security, and, descending, threw myself
on the cabin floor, sick and despairing.
The lurchlng of the vessel. the close
ness OF the atmosphere, and\ general
odor OF the cabin, overpowered me Mt
last; | became fearfully III, and from
being 80, lapsed into unconsciousness,
after enduring all the wretchedness in
duced by that allment OF the ocean.
For the top Of my head seemed about
to fly of, its sides to be crushed In;
there was a singing in my ears, an
ache In my eyeballs; and then came
that awful sinking of the pulses, of the
body, of the soul Itself which thou
sands have endured in cases Of aggra-
waited sea-slckness, but none has been
able to depict.
In short after paroxysm OF Illness
and tears, became totally unconscious
OF the peril and horror Of my situation,
and found a refuge in sleep.

The Scottish Leader says that the
former Lord Elphinstone's parish min
lister was very scatter-brained theO-
logian, and in his sermons often knew
not the end from the beginning. One
Sunday his Lordship, in his customary
sleeping, gave vent to an unmistak-
able snore. This was too much for
the minister, who stopped and cried;
"Waken, my Lord Elphinstone," A
grunt followed, and then his lordship
answered: I'm, no sleepin', minister
"But ye are sleepln'. wager ye din
ma ken what said last" exclaimed the
pastor. "Ou, ayp returned the peer.
aye said, 'Waken, my Lord Elphin-
stone'" "Ay, ay,' said the minister.
"But l wager yel dinna ken what I
said last afore that" "+futs,' replied
the nobleman, promptly "I'll wager
ye dinna ken yerself."

home is to be the ba Sc of supplies for
contemplated expedition. Other men of
wealth, energy or position were interest
ed in the scheme. Prominent among
these were his own daughter and her hus-
band. To achieve careers and a residence
for her, her husband and her boy was
Burr's darling object.
Then the bolt fell. President Jefferson,
who for some time had been vaguely con-
sclous of Burr's project, in a proclama-
ton dated Oct. 27, 1906 publicly denounc-
ell it, and warned all good citizens. The
project Immediately collapsed. In the
succeeding June Burr was arrested. His
trial for treason took place in Virginia.
1t was impossible to prove any overt act
against him. Burr decided to forfeit his
bail, and he escaped to England.
After five years of exile he took heart
to return. Sailing under an assumed
name he arrived incognIto in New York.
At the right moment he caused line to
appear in a newspaper to the effect that
Aaron Burr had returned to the city, and
had resumed the practice of law in Mas
50 street.
One only wish was left to the stricken
father and daughter. That was for
speedy reunion. But Theodosias hus-

Charleston on a small schooner named
the Patriot.
The Patriot was never seen nor heard
of again. It has always been presumed
that she was lost off Cape Hatteras in
storm which broke out a couple of days
after she sailed.
To Aaron Burr, waiting in New York
for the vessel that never came, cruel
stories were reported that the Patriot
had been captured by pirates, and that
all on board had been murdered with
the exception of Theodosia, who was car
ried on shore a captive.

BIG FORTUNE IN BALANCE

His Mother VIII Give Him a Share

He VIII Quit Living the Life of
Drunkard-Sanger Pullman Is
esting Problem in Human Nature.
Young George M Pullman, son of
one of the most famous of American mil
lionaires, is the central figure in an In
tensely interesting problem of human
nature. He is to have an opportunity of
choosing once and for all between the
benefits of wealth and social position
and the life of a drunkard, says the New
York Journal
He is now at White Plains taking the
Kelley cure.
IF 1t cures him and he remains sober
and respectable for a reasonable period
after coming out, he will share in his
fathers millions as far as it is possible
for his mother to enable him to do so.
If he returns to his old ways again his
mother will not help him with money,
and he will become q Eoafer, relapsing
into periodical poverty after he has
spent MS modest allowance 1or drink.
Young Pullman will receive a great
reward for becoming decent. For be-
having as well as the average clerk who
earns So a week he will receive the in
come of millions of dollars.
What will he do? Are the powers of
evil sufficiently strong to make this
young man prefer life Of poverty and
disgrace to one of wealth and respect
ability?
A mother is trying to save her son
from ruin. But for her his case would,
10 doubt, be a hopeless one now. AS
he has lost all feelings of selt-respect,
