what you've done for me and mine,
sir. And if you'll write me down your
address, I'll send to you If hear any
thing or if l find anything"
With this promise Mason was fain
to be content. He began to feel as
anxious to go away as Gwyn was that
he should go. For he saw that, what
ever was to be discovered, he would
have to get outside help, and he pro-
posed to put the matter without delay
into the hands Of the police.
Gwyn would not hear Of his sitting
up that night, so he lay on one of the
beds in the front room, while the farm
er slept in the other. But the fact that
he had slept through the day, and per-
haps certain vague, but justifiable,
feeling of insecurity, prevented his
closing his eyes.

went on staring scrutinlzingly in the
face of the doctor.
Are you married man, sir?" he
asked at last. abruptly enough.
No, not yet but hope to be one
soon," answered Mason, with smile.
you hope to be married soon? You
are engaged to be murricd?" went on
the peasant inquisitorially.
And may l venture to inquire what
business 1t Is Of yoursY' said Mason,
not i'll humoredly. but with strong
sense that the line must be drawn
somewhere between natural interest
and impertinent curiosity.
well, sir, It's just this way" re-
torted Coch Tai in q surly tone, that
man whose hearts full of one woman,
II he's the right sort, don't go trou-
bling his head about another. And
SO, If you're thinking Of the lady you're
going to marry, you won't maybe trou-
bic your head about Gwyn Tregaron.
But II you're not engaged TO another
woman and If you're soing 70 hang
about here another week or SO, looking
after her and showing of your fine
London airs to her ant making her
think her own folks aren't good enough
for her." pursued Coch Tai clinching
his hands with passion and speaking
In hoarse gasps, why, then, Mr.. Doc
tor, you stand fine chance Of never
getting back to your London sweet
heart at all, and so tell you"
From all he heard and all he saw IL
seemed to Mason himself that his
chance OF getting back to London,
sweetheart or no sweetheart, WAS SO
poor already that q difficulty or q dan
ger In the way more or less hardly
mattered. He was able, therefore, to
reply with apparent equanimity:
You are troubling yourself very I'M
necessarily. my friend. Just ask your
self whether man who has q sreat
grief and burden on his mind, rs l
have, 10 likely to have much time or
thought to give to lovemaking, and
whether, II he had, he would have
much opportunity for 1t in place as
full OF inQuisltive eyes and ears as this
house seems to b."
Coch Tai was silent for few mo-
ments. The doctor spoke again.
And where Is Jour own pride, your
own spirit" he went on. ITO think you
could be cut out so easllyY
But at that the great peasant gave
long. shivering sigh and seemed to drop
at once Into state Of absolute dejec-
ton and humility.
THAT'S It," said he In husky whis-
per. 'Thats the worst of it. 1t 'ud be
easy enough for any one to cut me out
easy enough. But 1t would be a bad
Job for him to try, all the same"
He ground out the words between
his clinched teeth and glared again
menacingly at the doctor.
at that moment there was knock
at the wall, and he started back.
"She wants-you! said he in sullen
tone.
The poor girl is naturally curious at
all this growing and whispering that's
going on outside her door," returned
Mason coolly. "I'll tell her you've
come to inquire how she isl
aye, tell her that" said Coch Tai,
with yearning look at the walls of
the sickroom as the doctor opened
the door and went in.

And with deep missiving he saw that
the SHOW was falling r:!i,ier than ever.
When he got down stars in his turn,
he found tine lad Tom in the kitchen,
looking as suli.y as ever and rubbing
his hands lefore the FIRE.
you'll have to pu, off your journey
back, sir" said he with an unprepos-
sessing grin. as Mason went quickly
to the window, which was almost
blocked up from the outside. We're
showed up"
The doctor uttered an exclamation Of
dismay.
Upon his spirits there fell like a
eaden weight the conviction that he
was in a prison from which he would
never get out alive.

Surprised by the question, Mason
looked at him scrutinizingly by the
faint light of a smoky little lamp
which was nailed against the wall.
There was eager interest in the mans
face and something like menace in his
tone.

still somewhat suspicious. ''The girl

"She told you thatY'

'Then l should go If were you,"
fetorted Coch Tai grimly.
At that moment the farmer came out
Of one of the rooms above and called to
Mason to come and see his daughter.
His tone was jubilant and eager. Coch
Tai withdrew noiselessly and at once
and disappeared by the back door as
Mason went up stairs.
He and Tregaron entered the sick
room together.
The patient was better; there was no
doubt of that. She had had more sleep
during the day; her temperature had
gone down; the cough was less fire.
Quent less painful. The doctor, at
whom she smiled, but to whom she
q scarcely spoke, turned to the farmer
with reassuring look.
S"She will do now with care" said
). "She must be quiet and we'll

Wis over"
"Then you can go away, Doctor"
said the girl, speaking out with unex-
pected strength and energy. you had
better return home at once and relieve
your friends anxiety"
The farmer and Mason smiled at
each other.
Seems very anxious to be rid Of
you, SIR" said Tregaron. "It's rather
ungrateful, amt itY'
But she frowned slightly and again
insisted on Masson's going, SO that to
!. pacify her he said at once that he
should start as early as he could on
the following morning.
That's n promise" said she eagerly.

Satisfied with this answer, she closed
her eyes again, and the doctor with

St. winifred,s Well to Be Protected.

Mir. Justice Byrne has thrown the protecting ermine over the High Court of Justice over St. Winifreds Well. in England, and declines to allow the water of the famous fountain-whieh is supposed to be endowed with mirac- ulous powers quite as wonderful as any in the Grotto of Lourdes-to be bottled and tieketed for home and for eign consumption, like soda water or lemonade. The High Court of Justice did not exhibit the bottling of Wini- fred's mixture out of any ehurlish de- sire to keep her benefactions for the select few, but simply because the ripa- rian owners of the stream fed from the spring object to be deprived of their quantum of water to enrich the local board, who wished to sell it for their own pecuniary profit. These owners had enjoyed the rivulet from time immemorial, and preferred it's contents to a collection of useless sur gieal appliances. His lordship held that, although the board were the GUS todians of the well, they had no right to carry off it's miraculous waters, which must remain in stu. Those who wish cures must get them on the spot. An injunction preventing any in- reference with Winifred was accord ingly granted

ANOTHER DESIGN
To Complete the Historical Frseze Around
 the Capitors Rotunda.

Washington Special New York Mall and Express: It has been the ambition of every administration to complete the historical frieze around the big TO- tunda under the great dome of the cap itol. This fresco illustrates the history of the United States from the landing of Columbus. It has been com pleted. except one panel or space, and as each administration has come and gone, designs have been submitted to fill that space with some event that occurred during that particular admin istration. The latest suggestion was made during Mir. Cleveland's last term, when it was proposed to fill the vacant space with the scene of the opening ol the Worlds Fair at Chicago. This pie ture was to represent Mir. Cleveland touching the electric button and start f ing the machinery of the Columbian exposition. Designs were drawn ard submitted, but the project did not quite please the congressional commit tee which has charge of the capitol. Within the last few weeks a New York artist has come forward with another design to complete the historical frieze, and this time the sssgi5jec subject is the free dom of Cuba. The artist has treated the subject in an a1legorical way, repre- senting President Mckinley as striking , the shaekles off the arms of female
 supposed to represent Cuba. Some have proposed that the artist change ] his design. and. instead, add other fig ures. representis Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philipr. as well as Cuba. ] No doubt, when sss meets the de-

MORE GLACIERS THAN GOLD
Scientists Found Many Natural Wonder.
 Up in Alaska.

Two members of E. H. Harriman's s scientific party that has been explor- ing the Alaskan coast for some months past have returned to Vancouver and bring accounts of their cruise on the steamer Elder, which indicate that MT Hartman and the scientists will return laden with many laufels. They seem to have developed a mania for glaciers, having visited and explored more than thirty. some of which were unknown except to natives. In one bay, not shown on the maps or charts, they discovered an immense glacier, not as large as the giant Muir, but much more grand and picturesque. The bay extends inland more than twenty miles and at point near tbe glacier a sounding line of forty fathoms did not touch bottom. This inlet they named Unknown bay. It was here that the Elder maneuyering among the cakes Of ice broke from the glacier, broke 3 propeller blade, making it necessary 10 return to 0rca, where repairs were made. At the head of Disenehantment bay they found four glaciers which had never been seen before by white men. In ley bay, twenty miles across. op- posite carrolrs glacier, the party dis covered a new glacier with front of three-fourths of. mile. This was named Earriran's glacier. Observa- tions taken in the vicinity of Grand Pacific glacier showed that it's ice wall had receded three miles during the % years that have elapsed since Muir and Reed visited the place and established their survey. The different scientists are having gratifying success in all lines. The botanists have found sey- eral new plant species and collection Of marine species made by the party, it is said, will be superior to any other in existence. Ornithologists have had phenomenal success and are able to show new bird specimens.
