the shore, and finding a
suggestion of path up the
cliff, clambered slowly over
the stones, until he stood on the mar
row shelf of rock at the foot of this
tower He threw his head far back
and looked up along its slanting sur
face. The clouds had broken now, and
though the sky was still adrift with
them racing before the wind, he could
see, around the black edge of the cren-
ellated top, star or two.
AS he gazed upward that peculiar OPP
teal delusion which seizes people who
look up at the sheer pitch of a lofty
building came upon him. 1t seemed
to him as though the castle were
swaying toward him; as though in an
other moment it might fall and crush
him. He lost all sense of the consid-
cradle inclination of the tower, or IL
there were any variation from the
perpendicular; it seemed to him to
slope back over his head, instead of
away from him. 1t was an appalling
sight. He stood at gaze a second or
two and looked straight before him.
This will never do, he murmured.

Yes, that's his way | don't know
whether he will be there or not now,
though, since it's so late in the season.
But let me tell you, Hatfield, he's
done an unprecedented thing in sealing
up the Brest fleet so long l think it
was old Cloudesley Shovel who said
that man was a fool and ought to
be broke if he kept his ships out in
the Bay of Biscay after September,
and here it is the middle of November,
and that war brig we spoke last week
said that he was still there when she
left, and looking as if he were going
to stay there all winter, too"
Yes, that's like him.
Like himl 1 should say so; I was
a REFER on the Devonshire when he
knocked LiEtendueres squadron into
a cooked hat, and I've cruised with
him since; he was an old friend of my
fathers before he died, used to stop at
our house when he came to Boston,
while he was on the West India sta
ton In fact. began my sea service
with him. I never saw such man.
He's as swift as frigate bird, and
when he strikes he hits like a storm,
He never lets go either, and such a
fighter! He's well named Hawke,
think"
"Ay, but very much doubt our
running across him this morning."
exclaimed Hatfield I'VE should have
seen a frigate surely by this time if
ne were there. You see, this wester-
ly gale has been blowing for three
days, or maybe longer, and he'll find
It difficult to keep his position with
such heavy fleet on a lee-shore. Be
sides, the wind keeps the French tight
In the harbor. He may have run
over to Plymouth, or Torbay, ready to
dash out again when the wind shifts"
And perhaps give the French a
chance to slip out, too. I'll wager a
pound TO penny he's been praying
they would try it all summer long"
The frigate, on the quarterback of
which the two men had been speaking,
had been moving rapidly through the
water and they were much nearer the
coast now. Indeed, the blink of the
Iand-the dim blue haze upon the
horizon which tells of voyages ended
and Ravens near, and sometimes of
wreck and disaster, when the storm
gods are out-could be seen now from
the deck, and the stern cliffs of
Ushant were rising higher with every
passing moment
Save for the land before and to the
north of them the horizon was clear.
There was not single ship in sight.
It was evident that Sir Edward and
his blockading feet had gone away.
'What'll you do now?" asked Hat
neld.
well, we'll run in little farther,
think" continued Grafton, I'VE can
al least see if the French are still in
port. Perhaps we can find out what
they are about to do Then we'll bear
up for Torbay, try to overhaul the
feet. and deliver these dispatches and
the news.
"And Mademoiselle de Rohan?"
~As to her, later, l am afraid"
you won't try for it now, then?
II think not, l must deliver these
dispatches first of all
tYou have not given up the idea,
though?"
Il never give UP anything, Hatfield,
answered Grafton resolutely, and I'd
AS soon give up life as Anne &c
Rohan."

There is very little doubt, it is be-

strongest of which is the running of
the stock from the building, point to
this conclusion. Mr.. Hay has no

The report of the special committee

city of Dawson of all claims against
said company to July l, 1905.
Resolved third: That steps be
at once taken to have voted the sum
of $40, 900. 90 of bonds with which to
pay the above $50, 100000 and for the
purpose of improving and extending
the city's waterworks as may be need
ed.
1t is believed that the waterworks
company will accept the $35, 900 offer.
They have not given the city an
answer, but from all The News is able
to gather, it appears more than prob
able that when it does come, it will be
an acceptance of the offer.
In the event the company receives
the proposition favorably steps will
be at once taken to have bonds voted
in the sum of $40. 900, with which to
paw the amount to the company and
improve and extend the waterworks
as may be needed.
The action of the council in this
matter will doubtless be satisfactory
to a majority of citizens and there is
very little doubt, Judging from many
of opinion, that the bonds
will be voted.
