CHAPTER XIV.

A Little Surprise for Mr.. Barnes.
The American springs up the steps
into the house again, and rapidly as
cending the stairway to the second
floor, sees a very faint CLEAN of light
shining under the doorway of the great
guest chamber in the front of the old
Corsican mansion
He knocks almost reverently and a
faint, sweet voice answers timidly
Come in
His heart lighted by hope and love,
his whole form trembling with anx-
iety to take his bride within his arms,
the thought that she is his and safe
making his flashing eyes very tender,
the eager bridegroom opens the door.
Reclining on lounge in a white
robe her head bashfully turned from
him. the long. beautiful. almost dis
heveled hair streaming over her shout
ders, is his rescued bride.
She is in a nook of the big room well
from the faint candle light.
He passes an arm about her slender
waist and kisses her passionately. Her
lips respond as sweetly and clingingly
as ever did those of a young bride.
But even in the midst of the ,iss,
Barnes starts back with sharp.
amazed cry of almost horror: MY
God. Sally Blackwood."
And the lady turning to him so that
the candle light shines upon her radi-
ant features that are almost laughing,

Veteran Drove "Prairie Schooner"
With Oxen Through City Streets.

New York-A team of oxen drawing
a prairie schooner" the driver of
which was rugged looking old man
who wore typical western garb, includ-

crowds on Broadway.
The vehicle and driver were not
only in striking contrast with the jam
of automobiles and carriages on the
Great White Way" but they were a
decidedly novelty in New York.
The driver was Ezra Meeker, a
pioneer of the Oregon trail. who had
returned over the trail he followed to
the west half century ago. All along

scribed as Dave and Dandy, had a
hard time to make any Roadway.
Meeker's trip ended at last at the
Battery. He had come all the way
from Puyallup. Wash, to New York
in 626 days.
Meeker's object in making his
unique journey is to persuade the gov
eminent to build national highway
from east to west.

Even then there were no takers.
So one evening, desperate, the
