completion of his own diplomatic I'M
dertaking, marriage with a beautiful
and charming woman-these items
would consolidate his career. His heart
was set on Iris.
He seized the first opportunity that
presented itself to make Sir Arthur
Deane acquainted with a decision al
ready dreaded by the unfortunate ship
owner. Iris must either abandon her
infatuation for Anstruther or bring
about the ruin of her father. There
was no mean.
IF she declines to become Countess
of Ventnor she can marry whom she
likes, as you will all be paupers to-
gether," was the earl's caustic sum-
ming up.
This brutal argument rather over
shot the mark. The shipowner's face
flushed with anger, and Lord Ventnor
hastened to retrieve a false step.
q didn't exactly mean to put 1t that
way, Deane, but my temper Is a little
short these days. My position on board
this ship is intolerable. AS a matter Of
fair dealing to me you should put a
stop to your daughters attitude to-
ward Anstruther on the ground that
her engagement is neither approved Of
by you nor desirable under any consid-
Grafton"
1t may be assumed from this remark
that even the earl's sardOnic temper
was ruffled by the girls outrageous be-
bo xvtnr Nor x.,oc a. nv a ctly y,ioaaauf fo
him to note how steadily Anstruther
advanced In the favor Of every officer
on the ship. BY tacit consent the court
martial was tabooed, at any rate until
the Orient reached Singapore Every
one knew that the quarrel lay between
Robert and ventnor, and It is not to be
wondered at If Iris influence alone
were sufficient to turn the scale In ia
vor Of her lover.
The shipowner refused point iblank
to interfere In any way during the voy-
age.
you promised your cooperation In
business even If we found that the Sir
dar had gone down with all hands," he
retorted bitterly. do you wish me to
make my daughter believe she has
come back into my life only to bring
me irretrievable ruinr
"That appears to be the result, no
matter how you may endeavor to dis
guise It,"
II thought the days were gone when
q man would wish to marry woman
against her WILL"
Nonsense! What does she know
about it? The glamor of this island
romance will soon wear of. 1t would
be different If Anstruther were able to
maintain her even decently. He is an
absolute beggar, I tell you. Didn't he
ship OH your vessel as steward? Take
my tip. Deane Tell him how matters
stand with vou. and he will cool off,.

The Earthquake Belt.

Earthquakes are more frequent in
volcanic areas, but are not confined to
them. A great zone which is particu-
larly subject to earthquakes encircles
the earth. This belt includes the Med
iterranean lands, the Azores, the West
Indies, Central America, the Hawaiian
Islands. Japan, China, India, Persia
and Asia Minor. 1t is believed that
the larger number Of earthquakes orig
mate beneath the ocean. In places
where the bottom Of the sea shows
great variation in, depth earthquakes
are numerous. They have, in fact,
been found to be 80 destructive to tele-
graph cables in these localities that
the cable authorities have named them
danger zones"

commercial skill. In three or four
years, given ordinary trading luck, he
must have doubled his own fortune.
No sooner were all his arrangements
completed than three Of his best ships
went down. saddling his company with
an absolute loss of nearly 100000 and
seriously undermining his financial
credit. A fellow director. wealthy and
influential, resigned his seat on the
board and headed clique of disap-
pointed stockholders. At once the fair
sky became overcast.
Sir Arthur Deane's energy and finan-
cial skill might have enabled him to
weather this unexpected gale were 1t
not for the apparent loss Of his beloved
daughter with the crack ship Of his
line. Half frenzied with grief, he bade
his enemies do their worst and allow
ed his affairs to get into hopeless con-
fusion while he devoted himself wholly
to the search for Iris and her compan-
ions. At this critical juncture Lord
Ventnor again reached his side. His
lordship possessed large private for
tune and extensive estates. He was
prudent withal and knew how admi-
rably the shipowner's plans would de-
velop If given the necessary time. He
offered the use of his name and money.
He more than filed the gap created by
the hostile ex-director. People argued
that such clever man, just returning
from the far east after accomplishing
a public mission Of some Importance,
must be reliable guide. The mere
eabled intelligence Of his intention to
join the board restored confidence and
credit. ~
But there was q bargain. If Iris
lived she must become the Countess of
Ventnor.' His lordship was weary of
peripatetic lovemaking. 1t was high
time he settled down in life, took an
interest in the legislature and achieved
position in the world of affairs. He
had chance now. The certain success
of his friends project, the fortunate

Twin EARTHQUAKES.

Earthquakes which consist of tive
shocks separated by brief interval OF
quiet or of two maxima of intensity
are known as twin earthquakes. In
Great Britain one In about every twen-!
ty earthquakes is twin, and the stron@
gest shocks experienced in that coun<
try belong to this variety. 1t is be-
lieved that twin earthquakes are due
to impulses arising from two deachedl
foci, separated In different cases from
four to more than twenty miles, but
lying along the same fault in the
earth's crust.

New Haven Theater. eat

Joe Welsh has almost from his birth enjoyed environments in his New York home exceptionally conducise to an in innate knowledge of Hebrew charae- teristics and customs. He has profited thereby and is to-day one of the most widely known and acknowledged clever opponents of the Hebrew character on the stage. In "Cohen's Luck" which has been chosen as the vehicle for the exploitation of MT. Welch's ability, he has an opportunity of displaying his fife versatility and clever characters zation of the Hebrew.
 "Cohen's Luck with MT. Nelch as Abe Cohen, opened three nights and a matinee engagement at the New Ha- ven theater last night, and the au- ditorium was packed to its capacity. Hundreds were standing throughout the entire performance. The play is by Lee Arthur and is in, four, acts.
 There is sufficient plot to make the comedy one of interest and carries the audience with an intensity which is seldom found in the lighter comedies of the day. It hinges principally on Abe Cohen's winning of a S10,000 lottery prize and his consequent elevation from president of the Buttonhole Workers union to a place of influence and re- spece One of the exceptionally fine parts of the performance is that in the third act where the scene represented is the exterior of the Vienna bakery and Grace church, corner Tenth street and Broadway, New York. The acting here of MT. Welch was unusually clever and he wrought up the audience to a state of almost wild enthusiasm, which was evidenced by the vociferous encores. The supplementing company is one of much excellence and they assist MT. Welch to great degree, especially in the comedy parts. There is an abun- dance of innocent fun at the expense of the Hebrew. and he with his trite and witty sayings keeps things going at a lively pace,
 "Cohen's Luck will be repeated to- night and tomorrow night and Satur- day matinee.
