CHAPTER XIII.

lMYN summer Southport island, as
M yet untainted by the tide of
|6eTN0y outing travel, was q spot to
X inspire dreams, poetry and
canvases covered with ocean lore. Its
many coves and inlets where the tides
ebbed and flowed among the weed coy-
cred rocks, its bold cliffs, sea washed,
and above which the white gulls and
fshhawks circled; the deep thickets of
spruce through which the ocean winds
murmured and where great beds of
ferns and clusters Of red bunch berries
grew were one and all left undisturbed
week In, week out.
At the Cape, where Uncle Terry,
Aunt Lissy and TeIly lived their sim.
pie home life, and Bascom, the store
keeper and postmaster. talked unceas-
ingly when he could find listener,
and Deacon Oaks wondered why "the
grace o. God hadn't freed the land
from stuns," no one ever came to dis
turb its quietude. Every morning I'm

dinner -harnoased and drove to the Mead
OF the island to meet the mail boat;
then at eventide, after lighting his pipe
and the lighthouse lamp Mt about the
same time, generally strolled over to
Bascom's to have chat, while Telly
made call on the "Widder Leach" n
misanthropic but pious protegee Of
hers, and Aunt Lissy read the paper.
Once In about three weeks, according
to weather, the monotony Of the village
was disturbed by the arrival Of q small
schooner owned jointly by Uncle Terry,
Oaks and Bascom, and which piled be-
tween the Cape and Boston. Once In
two weeks services were held, as usual.
In the little brown church, and rs often
the lighthouse tender called and left
coal and oil for Uncle Terry. Regu-
larly on Thursday evenings the few
piously inclined, led by Deacon Oaks,
gathered in the church to sing hymns

listen to prayer by Oaks that seldom
varied in n single sentence, and heard
Auntie Leach thank the Lord for his
many mercies," though what they
were in her case it would he hard to
tell, unless being permitted; to live
alone and work hard to live at all was
n mercy. The scattered islanders and
the handful whose dwellings comprised
the Cape worked hard, lived frugally
and were unconscious that all around
them was rocky shore whose cliffs
and inlets and beaches were SO many
poems of picturesque and charming
scenery.

SERVED HIS COUNTRY.
Varied Experience Of John c. CARLYLE
With the Hammond Co.
Sold everywhere. Is cents.

one NJ the actors in the Hammond
Stock Co., which has been at the Opera
house. this week, has had far more ex-
citing times than have any of the char
acters which he has impersonated dur
ing his stay in the city. The gentle
man referred to is John c. Carlyle. Mr..
Carlyle is following the life for which
he lon9ed when boy and to enter up-
on which he ran away from home.
He is a son of James C. Carlyle of
New York. at one time department
commander OF the Grand Army of tina t
state, and when Il little fellow, in 1880.
he ran away from home and Went to
Buffalo, where he sold papers until his
father discovered his wherea bouts and
placed him in Juvenile home, but he
made his escape from the institution
and went West, where. after a time
he became a cowboy. Not satisfied with
that life he came East and sought work
on the stage. but was not successful
and for the want of something to do
learned the business of submarine div
| ing.
This trade was followed until the
| breaking out of the Spanish war, when
| he enlisted in the LIST Marine Corps and
was sent to Cuba, where he served
both in the army and navy. He was
| one of the divers who cut the wires OF
the Spanish mines in the harbors OF
Santiago, MatanZas and Ponce, ana af-
| terward was with the army as a spy.
White engaged in this work, at Alloy
nita pass he received wounds which
nearly cost him his life and the scars
of which he will carry to his grave.
His lower jaw is shattered where a
Mauscr bullet Went through and he
still carries a bullet in one leg, the
wound of which still causes much an
noyance. In addition to these he has
other testimonials of his encounters
with the DOnS.
Upon his recovery, after being sent
home, he secured a position as stage
carpenter and from there worked his
way into the cast so that now, al
though somewhat crippled by his
wounds. he is living the life for which
he longed when a boy.
