Alvin has his home to offer. and Viola
has seen more of life? Then Alvin
can ask for her again.
Alvin peered eagerly into the older
wcman'ss face, waiting her slow reply.
When 1t came the two young things
hung breathlessly on each word, their
faces growing dull with despair as
the fateful sentence fell.

mine 1 amt got no right to settle
this question without his havin' q

'1 don't mean to show on, ma Viola
said, pitifully-
I've shaved all my life waitin' fur
the chance to live like white folks;
an now it's come, are you goin' to
spoil it all, honey?" She held out her
hand and her voice trembled.
Viola looked up suddenly, wonder
ingly, to see tears in her mothers
eyes. She was accustomed to her
mothers fiery sympathy for others;
but this was the first time she had
ever heard her plead for herself A
fieeting, hopeless look the child sent
Alvin, then crossed the room and took
her mothers hand in both her own
Goodbye, Alvin she said, piteously
she was my mother before you were
my lover; and 1 must stick to her
and paw" She flung herself into
Sally BIS arms and the two sobbed to-
gether.
For an instant Alvin stood petrified,
then Strengthened to a new manliness.
Mrs. Bernard, you've no right to re-
Quire such a sacrifice of U.S. We only
asked you to let us be honest with
you about our love for each other I'm
not the kind to forget, and neither is
vi. I'm going to win that home and
bank account; and then I'm coming
for vi. If we can't marry with your
consent, by that time the law of Cal
ifornia will let US do it without" He
turned to Viola, who had gone to the
window. Good bye, VII he said slow
1y, looking at her yearningly, though
he took no step toward her. You'll
hear from me as soon as I'm ready to
build that house. Have your plans
drawn and ready, my girl, for it won't
be so very long
There was nothing defiant in his
manner, for all of the fearless ring of
the words. Stella could have Rugged

Sally B., smiled at Stella a smile sad

of him carried her thought swiftly to
the telegram from Gideon he had that
morning brought her.
The message was brief Gideon was
coming for her, He had not needed
her negative-laden letters She had
not disclosed her engagement; she
had been afraid And there was
reason for fear. The. gossip concern
ing Alfred that aoated from tongue
to tongue did not escape her sensitive
ears 1t was said that he was in love
with the superintendeLt's niece; again,
that he cared nothing for her. only
for the position he might, as her hus-
band, command Gideon must hear all
this. Stella knew it would confirm his
belief that Alfred had no love for her,
and that she must meet Gideon, tell
him, defy him. 1t would be a battle of
wills, and Gideon would be defeated;
but at what cost? What cost to him,
to herself, to Alfred? Fear gripped
her at thought of the time when the
two men should face each other.
In the parlor she found Sally B., Al
vim and Viola in an excited, triangular
discussion, Alvin pleading, Sally B.
stern, Viola in tears.
'-Oh, Miss Stella" Alvin cried ap-
pealingly as she entered, do you think

sharply before Stella could speak. IF

Sally B. would not look at him.
Instead she gazed at Viola, all the
mothers pent pride shining in her
eyes. "Oh, VII" she said, after pause
that was broken only by the buzz of
an uneasy autumn fly on the window,

She stopped, and Viola spoke with

blushed and smiled through her tears,

The mother glanced furtively at Al

There was a heart-break in Viola's

CHAPTER Xxx.
Into the Niqht.

"Howdy, honey" Uncle Billy said to
Stella that evening as he came in and
took his supper-seat at the table,
where Sally B. proudly included him
in her elastic family circle. Are you
ready TO- the racer
"Oh, Uncle Billy, are we really 60
ing to race the Placerville Stage com
pany to Virginia City, 1 thought their
weeks of talk and preparation were just
to beat our previous time schedule
Yes, reckoned it would go at that;
still, Mr.. Crocker's words the law"
But why didn't he give you more
warning? You haven't even a day to
get ready"
Our folks have biggeh pots a-boil-
ing than staging However, the Boss
is in Virginia now; and 1 reckon he
got SO tired of those blamed Placer
vile Stage agents BLOWN oven there
that he's relyin' on US to shut their
mouths And we've got to do it, if we
amt ready It's my trip"
THE race is on" Alvin shouted, as
he pegged in with a message for Sal
ly B.
Explanations in concert were shot
at Alvin from several tables.
Yes, the steamer Chrysopolis left
the Sdn FRANCISCO Wlar1 at 1Our
o'clock; and she's streaking it up the
bay like lightning,"
Il hope she'll keep up her gait plumb
to Sacramento" Uncle Billy said at
the first break in the hubbub.
You bet she won't some one re-
piled. She'll have breakdown after
she gets the mail and passengers of at
Freeport for the Placerville Stage peo-
pie"
Don't you go into partnership with
any worry" Alvin said, pausing at the
door, 4 amt giving away the clicker,
but let me tell you the C. P.'s amt

Il got to have hot lunch ready for
them passengers to eat on the fly"
Sally B. said brusquely. Uncle Billy,
what time do you reckon they'll be
here?"
Some time neah about TO o'clock

into five minutes when we heah what
time the train leaves Sacramento"

some good men with him, and l may
look it up.
But here is the cream of my letter
for you, dear-for us. 1 am to have
a handsome percentage of any money
that 1 can save the company in this
enterprise now pending. If the bust
ness goes as it promises, the day when
1 may say Come will be a long leap
nearer
Closing words were penned from a
flood of tenderness that carried over
mountain and vale, and were still
warm on the page when they met
Stella's eye.
In her favorite hillside nook,
wrapped about with the fruity fra
GRANGE of autumn, Stella read and re-
read Alfred's letter, and unused upon
the vague plans for the future that
now occupied her mind. Nothing
definite had come to her, but her
growing determination to improve her
self was augmented by a tormenting
vision of a little woman in blue, light
and dainty, where she herself was
heavy; vivacious and quick, where
she was slow; charming, where she
was dull Stella wished she were
small, delicate, timid-a hundred
things she was not; yet she was SEN
sible enough to know that assuming
them would be folly. For underlying
all her vain wishes was recognition
of something within, a dim vision of
the power of her own soul, that
brought tranquility and courage for
her difficult venture
The declining sun shot a level ray
into her retreat before she realized
the hour and the call of duty Long
before she reached the hotel, Alvin's
cheerful voice hoated up in one of
his jocund songs
Stella sighed In few days Alvin's
bright face would be out of her life
He had been promoted from Colfax to
the Sacramento Office, and was now
awaiting his successor Yet the sight

the river end of this road, the Sacra-
mento Valley road, fell into Central
Pacific hands, iron was no longer use
full to the defunct San Francisco and
Washoe, which was to have taken over
all track to Placerville. Yet, ANY
thing to beat the Central Pacific" was
still the cry; and Alfred had need of
all his discretion; for the opposition
would never knowingly sell rails to the
Central Pacific company
Il have a delicate errand here" he
wrote toward the close of a long let
ter to Stella, that 1 may not tell you
of further than to say 1 am making
as much haste as possible. 1 hope to
be one of the passengers to Virginia
City on the day the Placerville Stage
company has set to snow under the

The American Lfesaving society,
like the official lifesaving service of
the United States, has a great record
for benefcent achievement The an
nual report shows that last year 573
persons were saved from drowning by
the representatives and employees of
the society 1t appears that the water
department of the organization has
$50 lifesaving stations at dangerous
points along the coast and on inland
streams not protected by government
hfesavers- OF these stations, manned
by 1900 men, 165 are in New York
city, &c on the shores of Long Island,
ten at Albany and Troy and eight at
other places along the Hudson river
The work is done through voluntary
contributions, and the value of what
is accomplished speaks for itself.
