WHY HE FLAeeED THE TRAIN.
Thought. Perhaps Somebody Might
Want to Get Off.

When the Berks and Lehigh railroad
was built, some years back. one of the
spots to be honored with small
frame shed and the title of station"
was little out of the way place in
Lehigh county. while the position of
"station master" was given to a near
by farmer The latter's acquaintance
with railroads was very slight, and on
receiving his instructions he was told
among other things that it was merely
a flag station, and trains would stop
only to let somebody on or off, and
that if he wanted to stop any train he
must flag" it.
One day shortly after his appoint
ment the noon express train drew up
in obedience to the red flag he had
displayed. The conductor stepped
briskly off and called "All aboard"
and moment later turned to the sta
ton master and asked: Aren't there
any passengers to get on?"
well, none as know Of" replied
the agent. with a puzzled look.
Then why did you stop the train?"
shouted the irate conductor.
Il didn't know" said the other. "but
some one might want to get Off,

He released his hold on her arm and
burst from the room.
He did not stay his steps until he
had reached the telegraph Office and
sent message to Detective Loud.
From there he went to lawyer and
received instructions as to the steps
he should take in regard to Purcell's
Indebtedness to him, and he set the
matter in train directly.
Then. for the moment. he had moth.
ing to do, and he ctafed like wound

TO think woman could warn g
man after knowing his falseness like
that" was his one thought-incoher
ent, but very forcible to him.
He had judged Kate Purcell toe
much by his own lower standard of
the powers of human beings, and he
had made a well-Eigh fatal mistake in
doing so.
But he would retrieve himself. He
would see Vance Rothesay captured
first. and then he would accomplish
that marriage on which he was re.
solved.

TRULY A WONDERFUL MAN.

GU ny MS
Greatest man to jump into town
and get acquainted with folks I ever
saw, Jap Johnson was," said a travel
ing man. Give Jap night and day
in country place and everybody there
would call him by his first name, and
he'd call everybody the same way,
even the girls. In forty-eight hours
he'd know every man, woman, child,
horse, dog and cat in the town. and
could tell who married who, who got
drunk once in while and who had fits
of rheumatics. Give him three days in
town and he'd have every bit of the
gossip and old, musty scandals that
even went over the back fences of
that town. He was wonderful man,
Jap was, and he could sell goods like
house afire.
The biggest thing he ever did,
though. was about four years ago. He
had four hours to spend in little
town out West. In that time he sold
two bales of goods, was invited to
dinner by the mayor, decided four
bets, was referee in a dog fight, pro-
posed marriage and was accepted by
the belle OF the place, borrowed five
dollars from her pa, beat another man
two games of billiards, and, it hap
penlng to be election day. he capped
the whole by sailing in and having
himself selected town clerk by ma.
jority of eleven votes"

DECEPTION THAT WAS vA,M
Poor Ending Of Bishops Efforts TO
Preserve Harmony.


Preserve Harmony.
An eminent Canadian bishop lately
paid visit of inspection to lunatic
asylum near Toronto. Before introduc-
ing the bishop to one Of the inmates
the physician in charge warned him
not to cross or contradict the unfor.
tunate man, but to agree with all hx
said:
IF you humor him." said the physi-
clan, you will doubtless find him
agreeable, intelligent, and apparently
sane, his only mania being that every,
body is conspiring against him."
The bishop assented, and was soon
conversing amicably with the lunatic,
who finally said:
Il see Queen Victoria is married
again.
"Um-er-well-oh! of course" as
sented the bishop, after some natural
hesitation, in view of the queens
death.
so she's married President McKin.
ley. has she?" queried the lunatic'
next.
This arbitrary mating of two of the
worlds illustrious dead was almost
too much for the bishop to sanction,
even in the interests of peace and har-
mony, but he finally managed to &C.
quiesce with fairly good grace.
We'll. who are you, anyway
blurted out the lunatic.
II am minister of the Gospel" re.
piled the bishop.
"Humphr" retorted the lunatic;
you look like parson and you dress
like a parson, but you lie like

toward PurcelPs.
Kate. who was upstairs. heard him
come in, and trembled as she heard.

incidents of the night previous, and
she looked pallid and worn. She had
succeeded in getting back and leaving
the horse in the stable before the
neighbors were up. No one suspected
her that she knew Of

CHAPTER XVI.
Pursuit.

What should he do with himself in
the two hours that must elapse before
Detective Loud could reach Cotton?
This was a question which puzzled
Dick Burt.
He roamed about the beach, his
hands thrust deep into his pockets.
his head bent his brain Keeling as il
he had been drinking.
He had mind to start on alone and
discover what he could at the hut in
the wood, now deserted by Vance
Rothesay; but then he should miss the
detective, whom he must guide to the
spot. If worth a rush, Henry Loud
would run down the fugitive without a
days delay.
And then" chuckled Burt, for my
Lady Kate! All! I'll take that pride
out Of her. III make her my slave!
The woman doesn't live that wouldn't
crush who has used me as she has.
Think of her look and attitude just
now! She might have been an en-
press. Jove. She beats everybody
else all hollow. and that's why she
shall be Mrs Richard Burt! She's
under my thumb now. and she may
struggle as she pleases, but she Won
escape."
The utterance of these words in a
low, savage g.owl, seemed to afford
some relief 10 the man.
Half a dozen TINS in few minutes
he looked at his w.tch, and swore be-
cause the time Wen. by so slowly.
At last, however. 1: came the hour
when he might ge. to the railroad
station To meet Load.
First he called a. the railroad Of
fee to see if any answer had been re-
turned, and he swere more fercely
than eve. at the thought that some
thing might prevent the detective from
coming.
He did find a message. but it was
this, "Colring in new. train-meet me
at the station" and Burt strobe on,
already beginning to- feel the excite.
ment Of the chase.
Loud alighted fro1a the train, look.
calm and cold as ever He had been
following up a false clue. and had but
