ON Thursday morning the Filter
steamed off down the bay, and the
flight Of the prOdlgal grandson WAS on.
No swifter, cleaner. handsomer boat
ever sailed out Of the harbor of New
York. and it was n merry crowd that
she carried out 10 sea. Brewster y
guests numbered twenty five, and they
brought with them a liberal supply of
maids. Wallets and luggage. 1t was not
until many weeks later that he read
the vivid descriptions Of the weighing
of the anchor which were printed in
the New York papers, but by that time
he was impervious to their ridicule.
On deck, watching the rugged sill
houette Of the city disappear into the
ulists, were Dan DeMille and Mrs.
Dan. Peggy Gray. Rip Van Wrinkle,
Reginald Vanderpool. Joe Bragdon,
DR.. Lotless and his sister Isabel, Mr..
and Mrs. Nalentine-the official chap
eron-and their daughter Mary, Sub
way Smith. Paul Pettingill and some
others hardly less distinguished. AS
Monty looked over the eager crowd he
recognized with a peculiar glow that
here were represented his best and tru-
est friendships. The loyalty of these
companions had been tested. and he
knew that they would stand by him
through everything.
There was no little surprise when 1t
was learned that Dan DeMille was
really to sail. Many Of the idle voy-
ayers ventured the opinion that he
would try to desert the boat In mid
ocean If he saw chance to get back
to his club on westbound steamer.
But DeMille, big, indolent and indiffer-
ent. smiled carelessly and hoped he
wouldn't bother anybody if he stuck
to the ship" until the end
For time the sea and the sky and
the talk Of the crowd were enough for
the Joy Of living. But after a few
peaceful days there was a lull, and 1t
was then that Monty gained the nick

The Riviera season was fast closing.
and the possibilities suggested by
Monte Carlo were too alluring to the
host to admit Of a long stop at Gi-
braltar. But the DeMilles had letters
to one Of the officers Of the garrison,
and Brewster could not overlook the
opportunity to give an elaborate din
ner. The success of the affair may
best be judged by the fact that the
Filters larder required an entirely
new stock the next day. The officers
and ladies' Of the garrison were asked,
and Monty would have entertained the
entire regiment with beer and sand
witches If his friends had not inter
fered.
1T might cement the Anglo Amer
lean alliance" argued Gardner, but
your pocketbook needs cemeuting a
bit more"
Yet the pocketbook was very wide
open. and Gardnor's only consolation
lay In tall English girl whom he took
out to dinner. For the others there
were many compensations, as the at
fair was brilliant and the new element
a pleasant relief from the inevitable
monotony.

brewster protested that he had no
use for the money and begged him to
retain the position of trust he had held.
But Harrison had too much self re-
spect to care to be confronted daily
with the man he had wronged. Gradu-
ally Monty realized that hopper was
pursuing the most manly course open

to complete the arrangements SO that
they could start at once. But Harri-

he made his report. All the prelimi

had taken the Filter for four
months, and it was being overhauled

been easy to find q handsomer yacht

Of fifty men were under command Of
Captain Abner Perry. The steward

princely fashion. The boat would be

his fingers nervously. Il can't for my

Ysang Man CHARTS from Denve to
Chicago as Wffe's Baggage.

Lacking money for railroad fare, and
wishing to take his bride to see his faith
er in Chicago, George Frances, recently
married in Denver, Travelled inside a
small trunk. Mrs. Frances rel in a
tourist sleeper, with the key to the
trunk in her pocketbook. The trunk
was bought at a second hand store IN
Denver. A hole was bored in one end,
and strong cross pieces were placed on
the inside for the inmate to cling to
when he was tossed around by the bag
gage smsshers. After putting in bread
and meat and a can of water, Frances
crawled inside and his wife locked and
strapped the trunk. When nearing
Omaha the baggageman, while checking
over the articles in his care, noticed
something move through the hole in his
trunk and made a closer examination.
Suspecting there was a man inside the
baggageman asked him if he wanted a
drink. Frances finding he was discov-
cred begged the baggageman not to give
him away, and explained his reasons for
his strange method of travelling. When
taken out Frances was so stiff he could
hardly walk, but begged hard to be al
lowed to continue his journey. 1T was
the most remarkable ride l ever had in
my life" he declared. "The food gave
out before 1 was discovered. and l do
not know how l could have stood it If
l had been left in the trunk until we
reached Chicago"

Of whose dismissal was u~nfOunded, has
informed M. Zinovieff, the Russian am
bassadOr, that the scheme in its pres
ent shape is too unpalatable. The
grand vizier offered to agree to the esk
adjustment of four new civil agents
with the same functions as the exist
ing agents of Austria and Russia, but
the ambassador declared that no alter
alton in the demands of the powers
vas possible.
Tewfik Pasha, the foreign minister,
also tried to enlist the sympathies of
the German and Italian ambassadors,
but his efforts were equally futile. The
unanimity of the powers, including
Germany, as to the necessity for COM
polling a full acceptance of the de-
mands appears to be complete and
diplomatic circles are satisfied that the
porte will realize that in face of this
unanimity there is nothing to be done
but bow to the will of Europe.
1t is believed in Washington diplo-
matte circles that the recent war be-
tween Japan and Russia has had con-
siderable to do with the recent atti-
tude Of the Sultan toward the Euro
pean powers. 1t is a well-known fact
that Turkey has watched the war with
the greatest interest. Japan and Tur-
key are no strangers to each other, for
in recent years the two sovereigns
have exchanged presents and express
sions of good will. Turkish newspapers
and Turkish public opinion favored the
Japanese aus from the beginning.
