Of the room. I'm pleased to meet ye
all this evenin'. Perhaps ye all know
Battersleigh, and hope yell all meet
me friend Captain Franklin, at me
side. We claim the introduction Of
this roof, me good friends, and we well

thin, all hands, choose yer partners
fer the grand march, sure, with
Jerry's permission. Thank ye, Mrs.
McDermott, and me arm-so."
The sheepish figures of the musi-
clans now leaned together for a mo-
ment. The violins walled in sad
search for the accord, the assistant in
strument less tentative. All at once
the slack shoulders Strengthened up
firmly, confidently, and then, their feet
beating in unison upon the floor, their
faces set, stern and relentless, the
three musicians fell to the work and
reeled off the opening bars.
A sigh went up from the assembly.
There was general shuffiing of shoes,
a wide rustling of calico. Then, slow.
ly, as though going to his doom, Curly
arose from out the long line of the un-
happy upon his side of the room. He
crossed the intervening space. his
limbs below the knees curiously af.
fected. jerking his feet into half time
with the tune. He bowed so low be-
fore the littlest waiter girl that his
neck scarf fell forward from his chest
and hung before him like a shield.
May hev the honor, Miss Kitty?" he
choked out; and as the littlest waiter
girl rose and took his arm with a vast
air of unconcern, Curly drew a long
breath.
In his seat Sam writhed, but could
not rise. Nora looked straight in
front It was Hank Peterson, who
led her forth, and who, after the oc-
casion was over, wished he had not

upon the row. Seeing this awful thing
happen. seeing the hand of Nora laid
upon anothers arm. Sam sat up as one
deeply smitten with a hurt. Then,
silently. unobserved in the confusion.
he stole away from the fateful scene
and betook himself to his stable,
where he fell violently to currying one
of the horses.
"Oh. kick!" he exclaimed, getting
speech in these surroundings. Kick,

swinging lamp at the lower end of the
hall. and farthest from the door. The
