 The girl went out to the platform. Ws en she saw me she moved aside, and l stepped out beside her. Behind us the track curved sharply; the early sunshine threw the train, in long black shadow, over the hot earth. Forward somewhere they were hammering. The girl said nothing, but her profile was strained and anxious.

 The conductor opened it and again there was curious aurging forward of the crowd. To my intense disap pointment the money was still there.

Why She Wasn't Disturbed.

His family is taking in the opera in New York and he had entertained at cards-American fashion--until the rumbling of the early cars put an end to the game. In fact, he just re- freshed himself with bath, and when he came down to breakfast his heart smote him.
 q hope the gentlemen didn't dis turb you last night with their noise" he said to the maid, when she served his breakfast. I'm sure they didn't mean to be quite so noisy"
 La. sir" was her reply, 'I 'avent slept in the 'ouse since missus went away. slept at me sisters. sir"

q have not been robbed, If that Is what you mean" she replied quietly, "l am-perplexed That is all"
 There was nothing to say to that. l lifted my hat-the other fellows hat-and turned to go back to my car. Two or three members 0. the train crew, including the conductor, were standing in the shadow talking : Hd at that moment. from a farmhouse near came the swift clang of the breakfast bell. calling in the hands from barn and pasture. l turned back to the girl.
 We may be here for an hour I said, "and there is no buffet car on. If I remember my youth, that bell means ham and eggs and country but ter and coffee. If you care to run the risk"
 T am not hungry" she said, but perhaps a cup of coffee-dear me, l believe I am hungry she finished. "Only-" She glanced back of her.
 q can bring your companion,' l sug- gcsted, without enthusiasm. But the young woman shook her head
 She is not hungry" she objected, and she is very-well, know she wouldn't come. Do you suppose we could make it if we run?'
 T haven't any idea" I said cheer fully Any old train would be better than this one. if it does leave us be- hind"

 drew out the gun-metal cigarette case and opened it. But this most commonplace action had an extraor- dinary result: The girl beside me stopped dead still and stood staring at it with fascinated eyes.
 'Is-where did you get that?' she demanded, with catch in her voice; her gaze still fixed on the cigarette case
 Then you haven't heard the rest of the tragedy?" I asked, holding out the case Its frightfully bad luck for me, but it makes a good story. You see"
 At that moment the conductor and porter ceased their colloquy. The con ductor came directly toward me, tug

 "I would like to talk to you in the car" he said to me, with curious g.ance at the young lady.
 Cant it wait?" l objected We are on our way to a cup of coffee and a slice of bacon. Be merciful as you are powerful"
 I'm afraid the breakfast will have to wait" he replied. "l won't keep you long There was a note of au- thority in his voice which resented; but, after all, the circumstances were unusual
 Well have to defer that cup of coffee for while, l said to the girl; but don't despair, there's breakfast somewhere"
 As we entered the car. she stood aside. but I felt rather than saw that she followed us was surprised to see half dozen men gathered around the berth in which 1 had wakened, number seven. It had not yet been made up.
 As we passed along the aisle, l was conscious of new expression on the faces Of the passengers. The tall wom- an who had fainted was searching my face with narrowed eyes, while the stout woman of the kindly heart avoided my gaze. and pretended to icok out of the window.
 As we pushed OUT way through the group fancied that it closed around me ominously The conductor said nothing, but led the way without core menx to the side of the berth.
