sleep might steal away my memories
and dreams of the night.

Still. there are emeralds and en-

And then-there are your eyes!"
There are two of them, Mr.. Dono-

Good! You really have possibili-
ties!"
She struck her palms together in a
mockery of applause and laughed
at me.

thing is possible" l dared.
THE Celtic temperament is very sus-
c%eptible. You have undoubtedly
likened many eyes to the glory of the
heavens"
Il swear"
Swear not at ALL"
Then 1 won't!"-and we laughed
and were silent while the water rip
pied in the reeds, the insects wove
their wool of sound and ten struck
unsteady from ST. Agatha's.
Il must leave you"
IF you go you leave an empty world
behind"
"Oh, that was pretty"
Thank you!"
Connected! I wasn't approving
your remark, but that meteor that
flashed across the sky and dropped
into the woods away out yonder."
Alas! l have fallen farther than
The meteor and struck the earth
harder"
You deserved it," she said, rising
and drawing the veil about her throat.
MY lack of conceit has always been
my undOing; l am the humbIest man
alive. You are adorable" l said, If
that's the answer
1T isn't the answer! If mere stars
do this to you, what would you be in
moonlight"
AS we stood facing each other I was
aware of some new difference in her.
Perhaps her short outing skirt of dark
blue had changed her; and yet in our
tTampS through the woods and our eX-
cursiOns in the canoe she nae worn
the same or similar costumes. She
hesitated a moment, leaning against
the railing and tapping the fiOOr with
her boot; then she gravely, half ques-
tioningly, as though to herself:
II has gone away; you are quite
sure that he has gone away?''
Your father is probably in New
York" l answered, surprised at the
question. L do not expect him back
at once"
IF he should come back she be-
gan.
He will undoubtedly return; there
is no debating that"
IF he comes back there will be
trouble, worse than anything that has
happened. You can't understand what
his return will mean to us-to me-"
You must not worry about that;
you must trust me to take care of that
when he comes. Sufficient into the
day must be your watchword. 1 saw
Gillespie tonight"
"~Gillespie?" she repeated with I'M
feigned surprise.

laughed. Il wish l knew that he
meant nothing more to you than

surprise at my swift change of tone,

l did not know. Then she said, very
%sOberly:
Mr.. Gillespie is nothing to me what
ever"
Il thank you for that"
Thank me for nothing, Mr.. Dono-
van. And now goodnight. You are
not to follow me"
"Oh, surely to the gate!"
Not even to the gate. My ways are
very mysterious. By day l Am one
person.; by night quite another. And

please, when I meet you in day
time do not refer to anything that we

and she put her forefinger upon the
peak. Il am Helen Holbrook; but as
what shall l say?-oh, yes!" she
went on, lightly-"as a psychological
fact, I am very different at night from
anything l " am in daylight. And
tomorrow morning, when you meet
me with Aunt Pat in the garden, if
you should refer to this meeting |
shall never appear to you again, not
even through the Gate of Dreams.
Goodnight"
Goodnight"
l clasped her hand for an instant,
and she met my eyes with a laughing
challenge.
when shall I see you again-this
you that is SO different from the you
of daylight"
She caught her hand away and
turned to go, but paused at the steps.
when the new noon hangs, like a
little feather, away out yOnder, | shall
be looking at it from the stone seat on
the bluff: do you think you a re-
member?"
She vanished away n the wood to-
ward st. Agatha's. [ started to fol
low, but paused. remembering my
promise, and sat down and yielded
myself to the thought of her. Practical
questions of how she managed to slip
cut of ST. Agatha's vexed me for a
moment; but in my elation of spirit l
dismissed them quickly enough. 1
would eve again entertain an evil
thought of her; the money she had
taken from Gillespie l would in some
way return to him and make an end
of any claim be might assert against
her by eason of that help. And | re-
solved to devote myself diligently to
the business of protecting her from
her father. l was ven impatient for
him to return and resume his black
guardly practice of intimidating two
helpless women, that 1 might deal with
him in the spirit of his W despicable
actions.
My heart was heavy as 1 thought of
him, but lighted my pipe and found
at once a gentler glory in the stars.
Then as l stared out upon the lax
l saw a shadow gliding softly away
from the little promontory where st.
Agatha's pier lights shone brightly. 1t
was a canoe, 1 should have known
ron its swift steady flight if l had not
eel the paddler'S arm raised once.

THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS

The voters in the Fifth Con-
gressional District, of which this
county is a part, will be called
upon next Tuesday to elect a
Congressman to succeed Mr..
Mudd. AS there is only one can
didate for each party, this cleo
tion to some may seem to be q
small matter; but all elections
are important, for the people are
the rulers of our country. No
Democrat should neglect to vote.
There never was a time when
the nation needed so much the
triumph of Democratic princi-
pies. Every man who has a
family to support, every one who
feels the high cost of living,
every one who feels the burden
of a high protective tariff, that
oppresses the people in the in
terest of the favored few
ahould vote for a Democrat
whose voice in Congress will be
against monopolies and trusts.
The duty of Democrats is to
turn out on election day, and
vote for our candidate.

THE FIGHT IN THE FIFTH
DISTRICT.

Eighteen years ago the late
Barnes Compton was elected to
the House of Representatives
from the Fifth Maryland district.
Since that time the district
has been uniformly Republican.
But this fact should not discour-
age the Democratic party of the
southern counties in the present
campaign. The conditions which
prevailed when the last Demo-
cratic victory in the district was
scored are very similar to those
of the present time. The Re
publican party had put the Nc
Kinley high tariff upon the peo-
pie just as they have now put
upon them thePayne-Aldrich law,
which is still more oppressive.
The people had resented the
Mckinley law by sweeping the
Republican party out of control
Of the House in the fall of 1890,
and they were in 1892 following
up their victory by striving for
the Presidency upon the tariff
issue. They were successful in
that memorable political battle.
They elected Cleveland President
and a majority in both houses
Of Congress. Later the fruits
of victory were lost by the un-
fortunate silver issue, which
made people forget all about the
tariff, says the Baltimore Sun.
In 1890, after the passage of the
Mckinley bill, Mr.. Compton was
eiesa eiecscaa over Mr.. W oy uneyy : Z. nsIudd
by a majority of 1,618, and in
1892 beat Mr.. Thomas Parran by
majority of 1886. Since then
it is true, the Republicans have
been strengthened by taking
from the Congressional district
the First and Thirteenth election
districts of Baltimore county and
substituting for the Seventeenth
ward the city wards and precincts
now included in the district.
Notwithstanding all this, and
his exceptional personal populari-
ty, Mr.. Mudd, the Republican
candidate, got only 317 majority
in 1908. A change of 160 votes
would have defeated him. This
year the conditions are far more
favorable to the party than they
were two years ago. The Demo
cratic candidate, Mr.. Ray, is a
man of approved ability and Of
experience in affairs. He is also a
man of high character and his
party is united for him. The
trend is toward Democracy, and
If every Democrat in the district
10 loyal to the principles of his
party, and sincerely anxious for
party success, without regard to
personal considerations, Mr.. Ray
should be elected. There is ab-
solutely no reason why six Mary
land Democrats should not an
swer the roll call of the Sixty
second Congress. If the sturdy
Democrats Of the Sixth district
can elect their candidate, the
Fifth has an easier task to per-
form. In both districts they will
get the aid of many Republicans.
