Japanese Sure He Would Be Killed,
But Didn't Mind.
The little lieutenant who lived just
across the street from o. X. Davis, the
New York Suns war correspondent in
Tlentsin, said to him one day;
II should be very happy to have you
visit me in my home in Japan after
tnis war is over, but expect to be
killed"
He was perfectly sincere and unaf-
fected. His belief did not alter his at
tention to duty in the slightest. He
went wherever he was ordered as gay
ly as II 1t were TO feast, no matter
if the field was swept with bullets.
When / saw him In Picking a day or
so after the legations had been re-

turning over INSW ESdl'
When Hyde awakened, he was in
that borderland between dreams and
day which we call dawn. The noises
finally woke him thoroughly. Il am
more alive than ever was in my life"
he said; and he laughed gayly, and
went to the window. ut is lovely
day; and that is so much in my
favor" he added, "for il it were rain
ing, Cornelia would not leave the
house"
Then he fell into reverie about his
proposed visit to Mrs. Adams. Last
night it appeared to him an easy and
natural thing to do. He was not
so sure of his position this morning.
But there are times when laissez-
aller carries before it, and Hyde was
in just such a mood. I'm run the
chance" he said. "I'll risk it. I'll
let things take their course" And
after all. when a man is in love, to be
reasonable is often to be cowardly.
When he was dressed he went to
his hotel and breakfasted there.
Early as it was, there were many
members and senators present--eat-
ing, drinking coffee and disputing.
Hyde took no notice of any OF these
disputes until a man-evidently an
nglishman-called Franklin "a beg
gar-on-horseback-Y Yankee" Then he
looked steadily at the speaker, say
ing with the utmost GOODNESS and
firmness:
"You are mistaken, sir. The beg.
gar-on-horseback is generally suppos-
ed to ride to the devil Franklin
rode to the highest posts of political
honor and the esteem and affection Of
worthy men in all the civilized
world"
With these words he rose, pushed
aside his chair with a little temper,
and, turning, met Jefferson face to
face. Tie great man smiled, and put
his hand affectionately on Hyde's
shoulder.
you spoke well, my young friend.
Now, win give you piece Of advice
when any one abuses a great man
in your presence, ask them what
kind of people they admire. You win
| certainly be consoled."
Hyde, casting his eyes moment
on this tall, loose-limbed man, whose
cold blue eyes and red hair empha-
sized the stern anger OF his whole
appearance, was well disposed to
leave the scurriIous Engiishman to
his power of reproof.
Riding hard, It was quite half-past
nine when he drew rein at the door
Of Richmond Hill. Thus far, ne had
suffered himself to be carried for
ward by the impulse Of his heart
and he stiil put firmly down any won
der as TO what he should say or do.
He was shown into a bright little
parlOr with open windows. A table

father speaks to me, as he is certain

TO him, he has a smile so hopeless
that both sad and angry 1t makes me.
No faith has he left in any man, ex-
cept Washington; and think, also, he
IS disappointed that Washington was
not crowned King George the First"
At this point in the conversation
Van Heemskirk was called to the door
about some business matter and
George was left alone with his grand
mother. She put the cups quickly
down, and going to Georges side,
said:
"Cornelia Moran spends this even
ing with her friend Arenta Van Ariens.
Well then, would thou like an excuse
to call on Arenta?"
ooh, grandmother! Do you indeed
know Arenta? Can you send me
there?"
"Since she was one month old ! have
known Arenta. This morning, she
came here to borrow for her Aunt
Jacobus my ivory winders. For thy
pleasure will got them, and thou canst
take them this evening to Arenta."
20 you dear. dear grandmother"
and he stood up, and lifted her rosy
face between his hands and kissed
her.
Get me the winders, grandmother;
for now you have given me reason

Then she went into the best parlor,
and opening one of the shutters let in
sufficient light to find in the drawer
of a little Chinese cabinet some ivory
winders of very curious design and
workmanship. She folded them in soft
tissue paper and handed them to her
grandson with a pleasant nod; and the
young man slipped them into his
pocket, and then went hurriedly away.
Doubling and hoping, he reached
the Van Ariens' house soon after seven
O'Clock. 1t was not quite dark, and
Jacob Van Ariens stood on the stoop,
smoking his pipe.
Good evening. sir" said George
with smiling pollteness. "Is Miss Van
Ariens within?"
has tonight" said the watchful
father, as he stood suspicious and i'm
movable in the entrance.
Il have come with a message to
Miss Van ATiens."
"A very fine messenger" answered
Van Ariens, slightly smiling.
"A fine lady deserves a fine messen-
ger. But, sir, if you will do my err
rand for me, l am content have
brought from Madame Van Heemskirk
some ivory winders for Madame ia
cobus."
Come in, come in, and tell my
Arenta the message myself Welcome
art thou!" and Van Ariens himself
opened the parlor door, saying:
"Arenta, here is George Hyde. A
message he brings for thy Aunt An
gelica."
And while these words were be-
ing uttered George delighted his eyes
with the vision of Cornelia, who sat
