"He used ter be" said Capt. Par
ker. "He has moved ter Havana
This here load of lumber is fer him.
He's buildin' new hotel in Havana" !"
"Is he in Havana now?"
Suppose so," said the captain.
'Guess he'll be daown ter the dock
ter see us come in. He's in er mighty
big bury erbaout this 'ere bunch Of
lumber. Bin telegraphin' and raisin'
blazes erbaout it,"
Seymour changed the subject. He
was so elated that he felt like climb
ing the shrouds, and yelling like a
Comanche Indian. The one thing
which worried him was whether or
not he had told Bender anything
about Hestor during the preceding
| evening. The look of paIned surprise
on Bender's face, when his ankle
felt the impact of Seymour's foot,
was evidence that he knew nothing
of Hestor or his completely in the
millionaire mystery.
Seymour vented his Joy and con-
cealed his triumph in song. The
bClh w Ill uIlHh wan
strong, but his repentance was sim
cere and his determination to reform
was earnest. So he sang. As a vo-
calist, Mr.. Seymour was handicapped
by the circumstance that he knew
neither the words nor the tune to
| any song. What he lacked in tech
nique was recompensed in energy
nrt
words, was about as follows:
"Yo no. my lads, the wind blows free;
A pleasant gale is on the se-a-a,
And here we rumte de tie tum,
Ra lie dada, te dunn, dunn dum
And ere we part from Engand's shore
tonight,
A song We'll sing to home da rumty digit
| Then here's to the sailor,
| Here's to his heart so true (sing there,
BenderD
| Who will think of him upon the waters
blu-u-u-ue
(All together)
Sailing, sailing, over the mountain main:
And many stormy wind shall blow ere
Jack comes home again.
| Sailing, sailing, der rumty, dun de dain.
And many stormy wind shall
| blo-o-o-o-ow
| Ere Jack comes ho-o-ome a-a-a-again"
The negro cook stood in the COM
panion-way and joined in the chorus
with a deep baritone, which did
much to neutralize the rather harsh
tenor of the eager Seymour, and the
uncertain bass of Mr.. Dick Bender.
Capt. Parker did not sing, but wGs
liberal in his applause.

or the best fellow IN the world, and
would not listen to his departure.
you and Bill hove in sight about
six o'clock this mornin'," said Capt.
Parker, as he passed the steak to
Seymour for the third time. "Of
course, | seen that we was a bit un-
der the weather, but we talked all
square and fair, say9n' ye wanted to
take a cruise, and when / said the
Sam Walker wuz goin' to Havana,
you said that wuz the place ye
wanted ter go tew. So you paid me
the money for passage for both of
ye, and we cast off and headed out
inter the Gulf erbout eight o'clock
this ere mornin'. Ye fooled aroun
awhile, clum out on ther bowsprit,
did various monkeyshines, and then
went below. That's all thar is tew
it," and Capt. Parker laughed with a
vigor hearty and pleasing.
From early childhood I have
longed to go to Havana" said Mr..
Seymour. why l should select this
special time is not readily apparent,
but it is well. Cheer up, Bender!
Once again an aqueous toast to Capt.
Parker and his gallant crew."
Having done ample justice to the
food before them, the voyagers fol
lowed Capt. Parker to the deck of
the vessel. The Sam Walker" was a
large, three-masted schooner. They
| found seats on the after deck. A
| big Swede stood at the wheel, and
lazily revolved it as the fresh breeze
came in irregular gusts from the
southwest. The air was fragrant with
| the odor of newly-sawed lumber, and
| Seymour noticed, for the first time,
that the decks between the masts
were piled high with timber.
"IIev a seegar," said Capt. Parker,
| passing a box to Mr.. Seymour. 81
kin afford to be generous, seein' as
} how you bought 'em. You gave me
| twenty dollars and told me to buy
the best thar was; and 1 reckon
you'll find them all right"
"You seem to be in the lumber
trade" said Seymour, as he took a
cigar and passed the box to Dick
| Bender.
Yes, / haul right smart of lum-
Der an stuff in the course of a
year." said Capt. Parker. Like all
New England Yankees who live in
southern states, his dialect was a
mixture of northern and southern
| idioms.
"You must know some contract
ors," said Seymour. Though his field
| of detective endeavor was limited to
| the area of a lumber hooker" on
the broad expanse of the Gulf of
Mexico, the newspaper instinct was
| strong within him.

How Jacques Tissot Painted.

An interesting story is told of
Jacques Tissot, the great French
painter, lately deceased. While in
England he painted beautiful reli-
gious picture and, meeting a country
woman, asked her opinion of his
work. IT'S a chef d'oeuvre," she re-
piled, giving a remarkably just and
detailed appreciation of the various
merits of the painting. Are you
satisfied?" asked friend. Tissot an
swered in the negative. He entirely
repainted his picture, working night
and day.
When finished he sent for his fair
critic, who pronounced it admir-
able" and remained silently admiring
it with smiling criticism. Are you
satisfcd?" asked the friend again
when the lady departed. "No," an
swered the artist, and set to work
for the third time.
When the Parisienne saw the new
painting she gazed at it for some mo-
ments with evident emotion, and then
without a word sank softly to her
knees and began to pray. Are you
satisfied now?" whispered the friend.
And Tissot said, YES"

leans" said Capt. Parker, with some
pride. "The Sam Walker has car
ried many a batch of timber up an
down these here coasts"
"Did you ever carry any lumber for
man named Walter b. Hestor?"
asked Seymour. Talk about your
thousand to one Shots" he said to
himself, ''this certainly is one of
them"
"Hestor?" said Capt. Parker re-
fiectively. "Hestor? Thar amt no
contractor by that name that l ever
heern on"
HE is not contractor" explained
Seymour. HE is a New York million
aire, whom L know very well. He
built a house on some island in the
West Indies year or so ago"
What sort of a man wuz hep"
asked Capt. Parker. What did he
dew?"
'He did newspaper work for fun
said Seymour. "He had lots of mon
ey, and went all over the world look
ing for good stories"
Did he own yacht-a steam
yacht?"
Yes" answered Seymour, leaning
forward in his excitement.
Say, Bill"
The first mate was talking with
the Swede wheelsman. He stepped
over and joined the group when Capt.
Parker called him.
"What wuz ther name of that dude
who owned the 'Shark'?" he asked.

that Col. Mcintyre built that air
house for"
Seymour dropped his cigar. The
temptation to yell almost over
whelmed him.
Lets see; what in thunder was

moving his cap and running his hand
through "A mass of red hair. some
thing like Hanson or Hampton.

The Dove md the Cnt.

Maj. Shattuck of the signal corps
tells an amusing story of an old-time
religious revival meeting at negro
church near Savannah. In order that
the revival spirit might be quickened
it was arranged that the preacher
should give a signal when he thought
the excitement was highest, and from
the attic, through a hole cut in the
ceiling directly over the pulpit, the
sexton was to shove down a pure
white dove, whose fight around the
church and over the heads of the au-
dience was expected to have an in
spring effect, and as far as emotion
al excitement was concerned, to cap
the climax. All went well at the
start; the church was packed; the
preachers text was I'm the form of
a dove" and as he piled up his elo-
quent periods the excitement was
strong. Then the opportune moment
arrived-the signal was given-and
the packed audience was scared out
of it's wits on looking up to the cell
ing and beholding a cat, with a
clothes line around its middle, yowl-
ing and splitting, being slowly lower
ed over the preachers head. The
preacher called out to the sexton in
the attic: "Whar's de dove?" And
through the opening so you could
hear it block: "Inside de cat!"

A WAYSlDE CABIN.

Alone it stands, in the weedy lap of a
hollow, dusk and DIM
Above its sagging rdge-pole peeps the
chimney's ragged rim.
The feathered plume of maple dips down
to the window-sash;
The gables melt In the velvet of willow
and elm and ash
A mellow bank to the westward of violet
fleece flung wide
The low sun stains, as a rose-leaf might
a purple vases side.
The afterglow on the forest melts, and
Sits faint amber through,
Till the buckeyes branching antlers drip
with a film of golden dew.
The door swings slack and the moss and
mold it's under edge befringe;
Wild potato and buckwheat vines have
tangled it's one lone hinge.
TIMBER and tan. the toadstools push
through riffs in the cabin floor,
And birds have built in the chimney
throat, where the blaze shall dance
no more.
Here is the trail of a ruined fence, a
fields forsaken sweep,
Its edges girt with mullen spikes, Its
half-lost burrows deep
In webs of balm and moneywort and
rivers of grassy mist,
Afght with the scarlet milkweed bloom
and thistles' amethyst.
But who was he who titled the field wher
the furrowed lines were new,
And down through the dewey green ar
cades the singing corn-leaves blew?
And whose the careful, busy hand that
over the window-frame
Entwined the woodland brier-vine with
its soft rosettes of flame?
The forest-fragrant breeZes sigh through
the cabin bare and lone,
But tell no tale of the soiourners its
shaggy walls have known.
The leaves that dance to the call OF
spring with autumn's frosts grow
red
The wheel Of time spins swiftly on, but
here is a broken thread.
Clammy and cold the dew and mist brush
over my face like spray,
AS out of the hollow's damp and gloom
seek my homeward way.
A splinter of moonlight fails across the
rough old cabin floor,
And heavy scents of night blow ir
through the idly gaping door
