When the launch approached, Ar

There were several richly dressed
young women in the party. John Burt

of his companions were under the in

Ambassador Bearded Ger.

Sir Jerome Bowes, Queen Eliza
beth's ambassador to Ivan the Terri
Bile, car OF Russia, in 1888, had an
exciting time. Ivan had killed his
own son few years earlier in a fit OF
passion, and was no easy character to
deal with. The car saw fit to dis
parage the English queen, whom, he
declared, "he did not reckon to be his
fellow" there being those who were
her bettcrs. Bowes could not stand
this sort of thing and pluckily as
serted that his princess was as great
as any in Christendom. What! AS
great as the emperor of Germany"
demanded Ivan. why" answered
Bowes, with a fine assumption OF
scorn, "such is the greatness Of the
queen, my mistress, that the king her
father had not long since the emperor
in his pay in his wars against France"
The car was at first more furiouS
than ever, but in time he took Bowes

N,rth America can boast such revels
in those days, or so much decorum In
sport.
Among the many stories connected
with the hostilities about Port Royal,
the most romantic and thrilling is
that of the bitter feud between
Charles La Tour and D'Aulnay Char
Mise. The former, as the friend and
associate of Poutrincourt's son, re-
ceived from him at his death the
right of command in Acadie. D'Aul-
nay held the same right from the
friend of Richelieu in France.
The enmity Of the two men was as
sured, for neither recognized the
claim of the other. La Tour retreated
to st. John, supported by his ability to
make friends, by aid from New Eng
land, and by his young bride, the
most brilliant and interesting woman
Of the French period. D'Aulnay, the
favorite of the French court, zeal

Sam. John hung back defiantly.
Come on, John, Jessie's waitin' fer

At the sound of Jessie's name
wave of agony swept over John Burt.
With a glance at the motionless form
of Morris, he turned and followed
Sam Rounds. No hand was raised to
stop him. The witnesses of the trag-
edy, held in spell, had eyes for
naught but it's victim.
Jessie ran forward to meet him,
her face white with fear.
."Oh, what has happened, John?
What has happened?" Her voice trem-
bled and her lips parted with vague
terror. Are you shot? Are you hurt,
John? Oh, tell me, joint"
I'm not hurt, darling" said John,
looking into the uplifted eyes. Some
thing has happened, and we must
leave at once. will tell you about it
on the way home"
BY a stern effort John Burt master
ed his emotions and calmly told Jessie
what had happened. He said no word
| of the shameful insults in which her
name had been banded in a public
drinking place. He explained that a
| quarrel had arisen, during which Nor
ris had been shot with his own weap-
on. Jessie listened breathlessly. II
had grown SO dark that John could
not see her face, but there was a
tremor in her voice when she asked :
'Will he die, John?
81 fear so,' replied John.
1t might have been imagination, but
he thought that Jessie shuddered anC
drew away from him. They heard the
rapid beat of hoofs behind them ant
she clutched his arm.
Out of the darkness a horse, madly
ridden, dashed forward, and was pull
ed back on his launches by the side
of the carriage. A face peered in
the homely but welcome face of San
Rounds.
