minutes tcgether. Often she sank into
n chair with an air OF languor and
weariness, only to start Immediately
out of ii and seek some other part OF
the house, or to go and pace the gar
den. Here in the air heavy with roses
and tremulous with June, as she walked
rapidly UP and down, late in the after
noon, at the time when the far-away
farn-bells were calling men from the
fields To- supper, the climax of her rest
lesness came. That anguish and des-
peration, so old in her SEX the rebellion
against the law that inaction must be
her part. had fallen upon her for the
first time. She came to an abrupt
stop and struck her hands together de-
spairingly, and spoke aloud.
What shall 1 do! What shall I do!'
Ma ann" asked surprised voice
just behind her.
She wheeled quickly about, to behold
hock-headed urchln cf ten in the
path near the little clearing. He was
ragged, tanned dusty, neither shoes
nor coat trammeling his independence,
and ne had evidently entered the gar
den through the gap in the hedge
Il thought you spoke TO me?" he said
inquiringly.
II didn't see you." she returned
What is it?"
You Miss Carewe?" he asked; but
before she could answer he said reas-
suringly, why, of course you are!
1 remember you perfectly, no = l gil

you remember me?"

tone was a respectful JUNCTION which
intimated how greatly he hcnored hel
father for having been the owner of sc
satisfactory a conflagration.
Were you? Perhaps I'll remember
you if you give me time"
But at this point the youth recalled
the fact that he had an errand to dis
charge, and, assuming an expression OF
businesslil1e haste too pressing to per-
nit farther parley, sought in his
pocket and produced a sealed envelope
with which he advanced upon her.
Here. There's an answer. He TOLD
me not to tell anybody who sent it
and not to give it to nobody on earth

She read the message hastily.

self, and how account for the fact that
she had not seen Crailey, how for the
fact that she had seen Tom? 1t seemed
unlikely that she could have overlooked
the latter; Tom was one Of unose whom
everybody saw, wherever he went. And
what inquiries would she make? For
Crailey had no means of knowing that
she would not see the Journal To-
morrow he would be gone, it would
be all over, but he wanted this last
day to run smoothly. What wild hopes
he had of things that should happen
when they all came marching home
no one can say; even if it were not to
be doubted that Crailey ever enter
tained hopes of any kind whatever,
since to hope is to bestow thought upon
the future
But, however affairs ran with him
so far as hope was concerned, he sell
dom lacked an idea; and one came to
him presently, a notion that put the
frOwn 10 rout and brought the old smile
TO his lips, his smile OF the world-worn
and tolerant prelate. He f1icked the
paper lightly from him, and it sped
across the room like a big bird in awk-
ward flight. For he knew how to pre-
serve his last day as he wished and to
make all smooth.
He finished his toilet with particular
care, took a flower from a vase on
his table, placed it in his coat, ard went
down to the dusty street, where
everything was warm and bright with
summer. 1t was JOY to be alive; there
was wine enough in the air, and
CraiIey made up his mind not to take
q drink that day-the last dayl The
last day! The three words kept ring
ing. through his head like a minor
phrase from a song. Tomorrow, at
noon, they would be churning down
the river, and this was the last day
the last day,
Still not too late to make another
friend at home" he said, stopping to
pat the head Of a NANCY street cur
that came crouching and wobbling
toward him like a staveless little keg
worried by scurries of wind. Dogs and
children always fell in love with
Crailey at first sight, and he never
failed to receive them in the spirit Of
his touch, Immediately turned himself
over and lay upon the pavement with
all paws in the air, to say: Great
lord, magnificent in the graciousness
which deigns to cast a glimpse upon
this abject cluster of ribs, 1 perceive
that your heart is too gentle to kick
me in my present helplessness; yet do
with me as you WILL
Il doubt If you've breakfasted,
brother" Crailey responded aloud,
rubbing the dogs head softly with the
tip of his boot. "Will you share the
meager fare of one who is a poet,
should be lawyer, but is about to be-
come a soldier? Eh, but a corporal!
Rise, my friend. Upl and be in your
own small self a whole corporaPs
guard And if your corporal doesn't
come home from the wars, perhaps
you'll remember him kindly? Think ?"
He made a vivacious gesture, the
small animal sprang into the air, con-
voluted with gratitude and new love,
while Crailey, laughing softly, led the
way to the hotel. There, while he ate
sparsely himself, he provided munif-

TwombIy Gifts Magnificent.

The gifts received by Miss Twombly are magnificent. The Vanderbilts never do things by halves. Mrs. Burden has been most lavish also. It will be the last gathering of the Vanderbilt connection in New York this year. It would seem as If for the present the family has chosen to be abroad. William K. Wander bilt, Jr. is the only representative who remains on this side permanently. Reg gie, of course, may have to live at New port, which is not exactly what he would like. The Alfreds will be divided in their residences. They will be here until their new enterprise, the coach. is well under way, when they will return to the farm where they are making all sorts of im- provements this year. There is to be steeple chase course arranged as well as a private polo field. In fact, the mill lionaires are now keeping to their own and having everything private. The day will come, perhaps, when there will be no clubs even, especially in the country, where each house and grounds will repre- sent club of it's own. One is coming to that at last.

AWaitinu the News.

From York Harbor to Cape May, and from the Delaware Water Gap to the White Mountains the summer residents are breathlessly awaiting the announce ment of George Morgan's plans. It is understood MT. and Mrs Morgan have decided to reside permanently in this country, and they will take a house at one of the resorts for the summer. Mrs. Morgan, 1t will be remembered, is Jap anese woman. It will also be remem- bered that her presence in public is sig nal for both polite society and the popu- lace to stare and stare, just as though Japanese woman was the eighth wonder. The Morgans will not go to Newport nor will Bar Harbor or Narragansett see them; so Seabright, Asbury and Richfeld have an equal right to hope. Mrs. Morgan Is rapidly learning every thing American, but in bridge she finds a stumbling block. She can dance and she certainly loves music. She has been to both St. Bartholomews and St. Thomas where the vested choirs have a strange fascination for her, and she just dotes on a Strauss concert. She stiff clings to her Japanese dress and style of coiffure, and she does not like to wear gloves.

The eff feet of it on the figure for which it is intended is truly admirable. It assists so very successfully the proper poising of the figure by firmly holding back the abdomen, and while the garment is long from the hips back taking In all cor pulency, 1t is sufficiently loose to allow perfect freedom of movement
 very round tapered waist effect is secured by a decided side waist curve which with the backward sway of the front at the bottom entirely eliminates the boxy straight front while an absolute straight front is maintained

DANCES WELL ATTENDED
BY DlEDRIcH KNIckERsockER.

New York, April 16-From Boston and Washington came many people for the weddings of the early week, and St. Patricks cathedral on Tuesday, at the wedding of Miss Whittier and MT. Iselin, was decidedly cosmopolitan in appear ance, as not only many American cities. but foreign countries as well were rep resented. The service was not a long one, as there was no nuptial mass. As one of the guests remarked, there was plenty of time for conversation, which Is always delightful to a congregation at a church wedding Miss Alice Roose- welt came on from Washington for the wedding and looked extremely well in black and white.

sToE!ES OF PLACES.
Costumes of Natives Are Varied in
 Bosnia's Capital.

From the Chicago News.
 Lieut.. Hussey, who was a member of the recent American commission to Abys- snia, writes "As we approached Adis Ababa we were met by apour 5000 Abys- sinian soldiers, under the command of one of the leading generals, who had been sent out to escort our party to the Cue bi,' or palace The Abyssan troops form ed into six irregular lines, four in ad' vance and two as our rear guard. Most of the soldiers were on foot but the chiefs had fine mounts, beautifully ca parisoned. There was no uniformity of dress, regularity of movement or special position for carrying their arms, which were of all kinds and types. But their bright colored clothes, generally of vel vet, silk or satin, leopard and lion skin shoulder capes, fantastic neaugears, some of which were a fringe of lions mane and richly decorated shields. with scores of green -orange-red flags flying, as they advanced toward the city, made unique and striking spectacle"
 Both in Mostar, the capital of Bosnia and in Sarajevo, the capital of Herzego- vina, the attention of the traveller is ar rested at every turn by the variad cos- tunes of the natves-veiled Mohamme- dan women with henna-stalned nails: men in red fezes, enormous blue trousers and zouave jackets; young girls in almost transparent white garments, beneath which voluminous trousers droop over fiat-soled peak-toed shoes of deer hide. profusely decorated with red leather, and vet other women whose headgear Is Q. cross between a coal-scuttle bonnet and a chimney cowl horrible to look upon and suggestive of suffocation and unapproach- able prudery.

versity Cotillon promises to be very smart affair, for the patronesses are peo- pie of prominence who are interested in making the affair a success. College men are supposed to dominate the enter tainment but no end of older men and women have been invited. One of these cotillons was given early in the winter, and was one of the most successful dances of the season. This coming one is to include not only last years and this winters debutantes, but the debu- tantes-to-be of next year. In fact 1t will be a meeting of the saints of all ages, and Sherry's Monday evening, April lS, will see gay wind-up of the end of the dancing season.

House Parties and Dinner.

Strangely enough an invitation to a house party does not rank as an invita- ton to dinner which, if once given, even if declined, stands for a compli- ment paid. An invitation to a weekend house party is, however, merely consid- cred courteous act on the part of the hostess, but does not in the least wipe off any of her social obligations, and, in truth, must be repeated and accepted in order to make it amount to anything. So involved are the rules of what is known as polite society that 1t is a lit- tie difficult for foreigners and newcom- CTS in the sacred precincts to be quite up in all the little details of local social laws and customs

About the VanderbiIts.

The Vanderbilts certainly do not in- tend to abandon New York as a place of residence, and the new purchase of William K. Vanderbilt shows that abso- lutcly His sons house will be next to his, and it is delightful to see such an entente cordiale as exists between the two The William K. Srs., remain, how ever, for the present on the other side. The young people are much interested just at present in their new Long Island home. It is one of the most extensive in point of territory of any in that part of the country. When the great Italian palace is built it will rival any other on Long Island.

It is fashionable to know about horses-there Is no question about that-and 1t is best to be well up in the knowledge, even in these days, when au- tomobiling Is so tremendously popular It Is apparently well settled now that horse shows will be interesting events at all the different watering places during the season

His Present.

From the Chicago Post.

 Good little wifey" he replied. What is it?"
 "A smoking jacket she explained. And I saved the money all myself out of the house allowance. Wasn't thoughtful?'
 "Splendid!" he exclaimed.
 And now I wish you'd bring me home some more money tonight"
 What did you do with that l brought home last night? he asked in some sur prise.
 "Oh, that's what I saved the smoking jacket money out of" she answered, ''and there wasn't any left

Will Go Abroad.

Shortly after the Burden-Twombly wedding there will go abroad Mrs. Van derbilt and her daughter Gladys. They will remain on the other side the entire summer. The Breakers is to be closed and the greater part of the entertaining is to be done by the Alfreds and the Reggies, and that will not be very lav- ish. Young couples these days prefer a few friends with little dinners and in- noeent "sprees" Mrs. Nelson goes abroad and will be great deal with Mrs Vanderbilt

ADRIFT IN a

The schooner Islesboro sailed from
Savannah for New Bedford on Nov. .,
and some days later Captain Trim and
his crew OF seven were brought into
this port by the British steamship
Atboll after enduring thirty hours Of
all manner OF hardships, suffering and
peril, says the New York World. Cap
tain Trim had been at sea thirty seven
years. and this was to be his last trip.
The Islesboro which had been wreck ed
off the Virginia capes by a hurricane,
nearly sank beneath them.
On Saturday the barometer got on its
bad behavior. and Captain Trim reefed
his spanker and took in his light sails.
By six bells on Sunday forenoon the
wind had reached the hurricane notch.
At p. m. on Sunday, as the men
were taking in the foresail, the cloth
burst and, tearing out Of the ropes,

an hour later in the same way.
Captain Trim ordered the jib set.
She began to pay off before the ire
