 Precisely. Now I'm looking at it differently. l don't mind telling you that I'm in love with you-desperately in love. It's been so with me ever since that day in the park.

 'I know" he murmured.
 Her troubled gaze resumed its sober contemplation of the flame
 "You won't leave me to my fate be- cause you think Pm going to marry rome one else?"
 He grew very sober. Miss Tullis, you and have one chance In thou sand. You may as well know the truth"
 "Oh, can't bear the thought of that dreadful old man." she cried, abject distress in her eyes.

CHAPTER XIV.
ON THE RIVER.

ON THE RlNER.
 M YO word was spoken during this M cautious, extraordinary voy-
 age underground. The pseudo
 Julius supported his charge in the stern of the boat. Peter Brutus sat in the bow, a revolver in his hand, his gaze bent upon the opaqueness ahead.
 At last the boat crept out into the rainy, starless night. He drew the skirts of his own macintosh over her shoulders and head. The night was so inky black that one could not see his hand before his face. At least two of the occupants opened up their throats and lungs and Sulped in the wet, fresh air.
 It was now that he began to wonder, to calculate against the plans of their silent escort. Whither were they bound? The occasional creak of an

 Not a stroke" gasped Newport. Good Lord, pal, you're not going to dump us overboard It's ten feet deep along here"
 Pull on your left, hard. That's right. Pm going to land you on the opposite shore"
 Two minutes later they ran up un- der the western bank of the stream, which at this point was fully 300 yards wide. Under cover of the dead ly revolver the two men dropped into the water. which was above their waists. The limp form of Peter Bru- tus was pulled out and transferred to the shoulders of his companions.
 Good night" called out Truxton King cheerily. He had grasped the oars.
 I'll row over to the east side" an nounced King to the girl, but I don't like to get too close to the walls. Some one may have heard the shouts of our friends back there"
 Not another word passed between them for ten or twelve minutes. She peered anXiously ahead. looking for signs of the barge dock, which lay somewhere along this section of the city wall.
 At last the sound of rapidly work ing rowlocks came to the girls ears.
 'They're after us," grated Truxton in desperation. They've got word to friends one way or another. By love, I'm nearly Jagged too! I can't pull much farther. Hello! Whats this?"
 The side of the boat caromed off a solid object in the water, almost spill ing them into the wind blown river.
 ''The docks" she whispered. We struck a small scow, I think. Can you find your way in among the coal barges?"
 He padded along slowly, feeling his way, scraping alongside the big barges which delivered coal from the distant mines. At last he found an opening and pushed through 4 moment later they were riding urde" the stern of a broad cargoless barge, plumb up against the water lapped piles of the dock. Standing in the bow of the boat, he managed to pull himself up over the slippery edge. It was the work of second to draw her up after him. He gave the boat q mighty shove, sending | it out into the stream once more.

laughed Reggie. But by this time they
had gotten well past the orchard and
we're passing In front Of the farmhouse
The old farmer and his wife were sitting
on the front porch. and 40 the little ram
blers went along the dusty road the couple
bowed In friendly country style to them.
After the boys-and presently the girls
had turned a corner which shut OF the
view of the old farmhouse Jack remarked
to Reggie: An honest old couple, and
they would gladly have given US the free
dom Of the orchard had we asked It,"
Don't be so sure OF that" replied Reggie.
EVERY one Of these old codgers has his
bulldog or his shotgun. They are a. stingy
with their apples a. though they could
use every ono that grew IN the orchard"
Edith and Lily were now walking with
the boys, and on nearing this much Of
asked for particulars. And when they
were told that Reggie was very anxious
to ''sneak" an apple they both showed
their dlsapproval. Haven't you enough
change in your pocket to buy what apples
you wantr' asked Lily, ironically.
That would be nothing out Of the or

So the children tambled on. reaching The
Point soon after passing the farm where
the apple orchard had 90 attracted Reg
giles eye Then they gathered some
leaves, already touched by autumn's tints
In advance Of time. They climbed half
way up The Point, but Davey. looking at
his watch, cried out that it was time
for them to be starting home.
YES. we are to have company for din
ner, and mamma warned me to be back
in time to dress for dinner" said Reggie.
Uncle Tom arrives on the $50 train and
stops over the weekend with US. haven't
seen Uncle Tom since l was nine years
old. And now I'm H."
"Oh, won't that be NICE" said Edith,
who loved company. You ought to take
great pains with your toilet, 80 as to
please your uncle. Let's start home at
once"
Yes, it's nearly 4 O'clock" said Davey.
And it's an hours walk to town. Well
have to get move on US. Come, kids,
let's CO."
Then, talking and laughing merrily,
the five little friends started toward the
town where they had their respective
homes.
When they reached the farm having the
fine apple orchard Reggie again began
expressing a desire to ''sneak" an apple.
And Jack, having caught sight Of bull
dog roaming the yard back Of the farm
house. and not far from the orchard,
thought tia very good plan to give
Reggie a lesson. So he said: If you
are bent on stealing m apple, climb the
fence and do it. And we'll be the farm

committed the theft. Bullet me, warn
you-there's dog in the grounds"
'l'll be too quick for any dog" said
Reggie, till now a very nne, honest chap.
But somehow temptation had whispered
pretty loudly to him on this outing, and
he had listened, much to the regret Of his
friends. I'm going to jump over the
fence and sneak an apple. I see the
very one I want-that whopper hanging
there on that dropping limb" And Reggie
pointed out the especial Ted-cheeked fruit

Then Perry would explain that he need

Sally enjoyed her swing alone; then she

Sally was more happy than ever when

Then a little brawl usually ensued. but
never lasted long, for the children liked
playing together too much to let misunder-
standings stay between them. And Sally
had no brothers or sisters and depended
on the Purvis children for company.
So away went Sally, running to the
home Of the Purvises. And over the fence
she called to Johnny. who was playing

he was, for Johnny had some difficulty In
