crate methods of wooing-"
He's as heavy as lead" declared.
"-Amuse Marian up to a certain
point; then they annoy her. He has
implied pretty strongly that the claim
against me could be easily adjusted II
Marian marries him. But she will

! should say not" declared with
warmth that caused Sister Theresa to
sweep me with those wonderful gray
eyes. But first he expects to find this
fortune and endow Miss Devereux
with it. That is a part of the scheme.
And my own interest in the estate
must be eliminated before he can
bring that condition about. But, Sis
ter Theresa, L am not so easily got
rid of as Arthur Pickering imagines.
My staying qualities, which were al
ways weak in the eyes of my family,
have been braced up a trife."
Yes"
l thought pleasure and hope were
expressed in the monosyllable, and my
heart warmed TO her
Sister Theresa, you and I are un-
derstanding each other much better
than l imagined we should"-and we
both laughed. feeling a real sympathy
growing between us"
Yes, 1 believe we are"-and the
smile lighted her face again.
SO l can tell you two things. The
first is that Arthur Pickering will
never find my grandfathers lost for
tune, assuming that any exists. The
second is that in no event will he
marry your niece"
You speak with a good deal of con-
f1dence," she said and laughed low,
murmuring laugh. ! thought there was
relief in 1t. But didn't suppose Ma
rian's affairs interested you"
They don't, Sister Theresa. Her
affairs are not of the slightest import
ance-but she is!'
There was frank inquiry in her eyes
now.
But you don't know her-you have
missed your opportunity"
To be sure, don't know her; but l
know Olivia Gladys Armstrong. She's
particular friend of mine-we have
chased rabbits together, aud she told
me great deal. l have formed a
very good opinion of Miss Devereux
IN that way. Oh, that note you wrote
about Olivia's intrusions beyond the
wall! l ought to thank you for It
! but l really didn't mind"
"A note? l never wrote you a note
until to-day!"
Well some one did," said, then
she smiled
"Oh, that must have been Marian!
She was always Olivia's loyal friend
and apologist."
Il should say So"
"But you shouldn't have known
Olivia-it is unpardonable. If she
played tricks upon you, you should
not have taken advantage of them to
make her acquaintance. That wasn't
fair to met"
II suppose not! But l protest
against this deportation. The land
scape hereabouts is only so much sky
snow and lumber without Olivia"
I'VE miss her, TOO" replied Sister
Theresa. I'VE have less to do"
went home and studied the time
table.

Escaped a Lamp Post

THESE were all good losers" as the gamblers,
i phrase puts it, which means that they did not
howl when they were hurt. Perhaps it may as well be
admitted that the average is not a good loser,
and therefore is the readily overawed by assur-
ance and a show of force. Following the great hre
of $40 in New York the banks knew they ought
to suspend specie payments; but they would never
have done it without the support OF the militia;
which lined up in front of Trinity church and warned
peaceabe citizens to go home. Whether Jay Gould
would ever have been heard Of after Black friday
but for the deputy sheriffs who gave him chance
to run, is problematcal. Spectators who had sui
fered were hot after him and his partners and as
Henry Clews has pictured the situation had any
of the gentlemen appeared outside. the chances
were that the lamp post near by would hi have very
soon been decorated with breathless body
Could personal magnetism have saved them 1t
is much to be doubted; and there was none OF 1t IN
that gang anyhow. Those wonderful black eyes OF
Gould's had hypnotic power, but they could control
only one man at a time; and though Jim Fisk, the
Prince OF Erie very potentate of bluff nobody
can imagine him swaying maddened crowd. ~ III

and relieved himself woman fashion, by good cry.
To that remedy Stewart often reSOrted, they say;
but this did not prevent him from being a fighter,
and there a story of his earlier DAYS which shows
the other side Of his nature. 1t while he was IN
his first little twelve-oot-frOnt shop, working as
salesman bOOkkeeper. porter errand boy the whole
staff, and a note fell due which he couldn't pay.
Times were dull his friends short, the banks
wouldn't be bothered with him He marked every
article in his the wholesale prlce, and paS-
tered New York with handbills telling what he had
and how much he wanted for 1t. The selling out at
cost scheme a novelty then, and people guped
the contents of the handbills. They found real bar
gains the shop too, and carried away everything
Stewart had sell. Not only did he pay his note,
but he bought his stock, better one, for cash,
and never afterward purchased anything on credit.
1t took resourcefulness as well as sand to meet
crisis in this fashion. Somehow it recalls the
splendid self possession OF Dupuy, president OF the
French Chamber Of Deputies, who, the moment
after the Anarchist valiant had exploded a bomb
in the chamber queed the terror and confusion
with four words, Gentlemen, the sitting continues!
And TO go back years to one OF our own people,
it brings up Jacob Little, the Great Bear of
Wall Street" who made nine fortunes and lost as
many, but never lost his Walking up from
the Stock Exchange day with friend, he passed
through Union Square, where the richest New
Workers then lived. Looking at the rows OF fine
houses Little remarked Il have lost money enough
to-day to buy this whole square-yeS and halt the
people in it." Little was spiritually akin to Marshall
Field and Levi L. Letter, who, while the Chicago
fire still ragged northward, had rented an old street
car barn at State and Twentieth-sts., and were
doing business.
