Paul Lea

Paul Learns That Laura Is in Alaska.
HE, he, he!" chuckled Ned Padgett,
rubbing his hands gleefully at seeing
the tables turned. You hove in
sight, mates, in good time. Must "a
had fair winds"
Paul had no difficulty in making
out the two men, companions of the
third, whom he had met on other oc-
casions. As these were the men who
had robbed him and whom he and
old Glum had chased in the forest,
there was little mercy to expect from
them. With thongs of seal-skin Paul
and the hermit were quickly tied hard
and fast. and told they must move on
before the Indians returned.
AS 1t was dark and the snow falling
rapidly, there was little danger of
even the Indians following on their
trail, shrewd as they were In such
experiences.
The night was dark and the snow
falling, so it was difficult travelling. A
strip Of walrus hide was tied about
the arms Of each above their elbows
and fastened about their backs. They
were heavily loaded, and threatened
with the knotted stick which Ned car
ried in his hand when they staggered
under their heavy loads.
On, on and on they staggered
through the darkness and over the
uneven ground. At last Paul. utterly
exhausted, sank down at the root Of
a tree.
Get up! Go on!" cried one of their
captors.

"Ye lie!" cried Padgett and raised
his club.
But one Of his companions quickly

A roaring fire was built against the
side Of great stone which reared its
snow-capped head hundred feet into
the air.
Paul's pack was removed from his
back and he laid on a blanket in
front of the fire with the hermit by
his side.
The rascal named Morris came to
the old mans side and said:

RACIAL FEuos IN EUROPE.
Antagonist Ensendered Between
Prussians and Poles.


Hardly a day passes but the news.
papers contain striking evidence OF
the antagonistic spirit which Is being
engendered between the Poles and
the Prussians. Last week II came to
the ears of the publishers of Polish
paper circulating in Westphalia that
one of their compositors was about
to marry German girl. They cor.
sidered that this stamped him as q
traitor to Poland, and although he
had served them faithfully for many
years they dismissed him on the spot.
A large number of Poles work in me
Westphalia coal mines, and In order
to further the amalgamation Of the
races the authorities have issued
regulations to the effect that no per-
son shall be employed underground
who is not proficient in the German
language. The Poles obstinately re-
fuse to know a word of German when
they happen to be called up to make
statements in public.
A few days ago a Polish miner had
to give evidence in a Westphalia
police court. He was, of course, as
innocent as newly-born babe of any
knowledge of German until the magis-
trate threatened to report the case
to his employers, who would have
been compelled to dismiss him.
Thereupon his German came back,
and he replied fluently to all the
questions put to him. His wife had
been present during the hearing of
the case, and was waiting for him in
the passage just outside the court
room door. AS soon as he appeared
she bitterly reproached him for hav.
ing given way, and to render her
arguments more forcible, soundly
boxed his ears. She then kicked MIN
with such vigor that he had to race
down the corridor into the street to
escape the attentions OF his "patri-
otto" better half.-London Leader.

Paul was filled with delight, for
here was chance to unravel the
mystery in which he was involved.
Another silence fell on the group,
broken by Paul asking:
DO you know miner named
Glum?"
"Glum-Glum-no."
"Glum Ralston."
The old man again shook his head.
declaring he had never known such a
person. Paul was disappointed. From
what Glum Ralston had told him he
was confident that this mysterious
hermit of the woods was the long.
lost captain who had followed the
Indians to the place where they said
gold in great quantities was found.
But when the mysterious hermit
disclaimed any knowledge of him at
all he was quite as far away from
the solution of the problem as he
had been before.
Next morning the party resumed
their march guided by the sun, which
shone portion of the day. Paul
and the hermit were constantly to-
gether, and hourly grew more and
more friendly. until, as the noble
nature of the hermit unfolded itself,
Paul came to love him. He was
known to the hermit by his sobriquet
OF Crack-lash. for he had been called
by no other name since his arrival
In Alaska.
Paul was hourly entwining him
self about the rugged heart of the old
man. One night when they had
halted and the Indians were building
a fire for the night the hermit said:
"Crack-lash, you impress me
strangely. | don't know why, but !
have grown to love you as IL you
were my nearest relative. When my
own dear boy grows up to manhood
/ could only wish that he would make
as noble a man."
Paul, deeply impressed with the
old mans sad story, expressed a hope
that he would soon be able to leave
Alaska and reach his home, and that
his wife and child might yet be alive
to welcome him.
Their stock of provisions were run
ming short. One day the Indians
came on the trail of a moose and
were anxious to start on its trail.
Paul gave them permission to go,
while he and the hermit kindled the
fire and prepared to mako themselves
comfortable for the night.
The prisoner as usua! set in sullen
silence, with his back against a tree
and his eyes fixed on the fire. Paul
and the hermit sat engaged in earn
est conversation. The former was
talking in low tone, telling how he
had been robbed by the prisoner and
three others, and followed them into
the forest. He was in the midst of
his narrative when two objects sud.
denly appeared before them, each
with a Winchester rife and said:
Surrender or you are dead men,"
Resistance was useless; they were
prisoners almost before they knew it..
