Heart toHeart
Talks.
HOLD TO YOUR FRIEND.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.

HOLD TO YOUR FRIEND.
1t is related of one of the Russian
cxars that once. during a battle. he dis
mounted from his horse, put a wound
ed lieutenant on his saddle and carried
the lieutenant to a place Of safety.
Then the car swung his hat and ex-
claimed:
II have saved a man!'
The battle had gone against him.
That was q mere incident. The thing
worth while was that he had saved a
man. There is no Joy comparable to
that.
Some years ago like pleasure came
into my life. and, whatever happens to
me in time or eternity, nothing can
rob me of that happiness.
At the risk of apparent egotism tell
this true story:
saved q man from himself He was
my friend and was worth saving
Lacking one thing, he was every whit
a man. He was a victim Of the drink
habit.
He tried my friendship sometimes to
the utmost Often he would telephone
me. Il am down again" At such
times I would hasten to him with a
closed carriage and take him home.
His wife, in many respects a good
woman. would have nothing to do with
him on such occasions. and / would
put him to bed
Except when in his sprees he was
o%tonffvo ~ h,cirocc or,1 cy,croScfy,l
Many times he voluntarily made prom
Uses OF reform. l never reproached
him. but said: That is past. You will
not do SO again"
He grew worse
The sprees came closer together.
My friends business began to suffer
His wife left him. His physician said
to me: There is no hope. He is what
is known as a constitutional drunkard.
He inherited the drunkard's tempera-
ment.'
We got him to take ''cure-"
He Strengthened up for awhile. but
was soon "down again." He avoided
his friends and consorted with the
lowest. He was in the ditch.
One day. though he tried to dodge
me, 1 met him face to face and spoke
to him In the old familiar way.
asked him why he had not come to see
me and invited him to lunch.
The poor fellow looked down at hi.
| clothes andNhis voice broke as he said
my God, do you think there is any
hope for me?" / assured him I still
believed in him and would help him.
He turned to go and said. when
you see me again shall be clothed and
In my right mind"
| That was years ago.
One Of the delights of my life is t.
| receive letters from my old friend. now
| a successful business man in an east
ern city. And before me are his words
You can tell the world that it was
| your belief in me that raised me from
the ditch"
| Hold on to your friend! However
low he goes, hold on.

WE don't understand why all this
jealousy of Gary. The Valparaiso
Messenger says: Gary, the city
where they do things, mostly of the
devilish variety, has become afraid of
the wrath to come, and is not taking
chances on premature judgment to
be vented through a possible explosion
of the Aetna powder mills near Miller
Therefore, the mill must be moved be-
fore they go bumpski and tear of
Gary's lid, disclosing some of that

I heard her say at breakfast that she'd
take him to Raleigh this afternoon"
That's the boy 1 Travelled all the way
to North Carolina to get for Fentress"
''Eh-you don't say?" cried Ware.
Tom, what do you know about the
Quintard lands: what do you know about
Quintard himself?" continued Murrell.
He was a rich planter; lived in North
Carolina. My father met him when he
was in Congress and got him to invest
INLAND here. They had some colonial
ton scheme on foothills was upward of
twenty years ago-but nothing came of
1t. Quintard lost interest"
And the land?"
''Oh. he held on to that"
"Quintard has been dead two years,
Tom, and back yorfder in North Carolina
they told me ne left nothing but the
home plantation. The boy lived there
up to the time of Quintard's death, but
what relation he was to the old man no
one knew. Offhand, Tom, I'd say that
by getting hold of the boy Fentress ex-
poets to get hold of the Quintard land"
That's likely" Baid Ware. Then,
struck by a sudden idea, he added: Are
you going to take all the risks and let
him pocket the cash? If it's the land
he's after, the stakes big enough to
divide''
He can have the whole thing and well
come; I'm playing for a bigger stake. ="
His friend stared at him in astonish-
ment. Pm licking a speculation into
shape that will cause me to be remem-
bered while there's white man alive
in the Mississippi Valley. Have you
heard what the niggers did at Haiti?'
You let the niggers alone; don't you
tamper with them" said Ware He pos
sessed a profound belief in Murrells
capacity. He knew how the latter had
shaped the uneasy population that fore
gathered on the edge of civilization to
his own ends, and that what he had
christened the Clan had become an elab-
crate organization, disciplined and hext-
BILE TO his ruthless will.
Look here, what do you think l have
been working for-to steal few mig
gers? That furnishes us with money
but you can push the trade too hard ana
too far. The planters are uneasy. The
Clans got to deal a counter-blow or go
out of business. Between here and the
gulf he made a wide sweeping gesture
with his arm. Il am spotting the coun-
try with my men; there are 1000 active
workers on the rolls of the Clan, and
as many more like you, Tom-and Fen
tress-on whose friendship I can rely.
.'Sure as God, John Murrell, you are
overreachi yourself! Your white men
are all right, they've got to stick by you;
if they don't they know it's only ques-
ton of time until they get knife driven
into their ribs-but niggers-there ism
any real fight in a niger; II there was
they wouldn't be here.
yet Won couldn't have made the
whites in Haiti believe that" said Muir
reIl. with a sinister smile.
Ware. feeling the entire uselessness OF
argument, uttered a string Of imPreca-
tions. and then fell silent.
We'll, how about the girl Tom
asked MurreI at length. Listen 10 me
Tom. I'll take her away, anu I
plain is yours-Iand, stock and mig
gers" said Murrell.
Ware shifted and twisted in his seat.
DO you want the land and the mig
pers9 I reckon you'll have to take
+ber1 whether you want them or not

CHAPTER XVII.
Bob Yancy Finds Himself.

Mr.. Yancy awoke from long dream
less sleep; heavy-udded, his eyes shd
onen. For a moment he struggled with
the odds and ends of memory, then ne
recalled the fight at the tavern. the sud
den murderous attack, the fierce blows
SIosson had dealt him, the knife thrust
which had ended the struggle. There
fore. the bandages that now swathed
his head and shoulders; therefore, the
need that he should be up and doing-for
where was Hannibal?
Suddenly a shadow fell obliquely across
the foot of his narrow bed, and Caven-
dish, bending his long body somewhat,
thrust his head in at the opening. He
found himself looking into pair Of eyes
that for the first time in many a long
day held the light of consciousness.
How are you, stranger" he demand
ed, in a soft drawl.
Where am II" The words were a
whisper on Yancy's bearded lips.
We'll. sir, you are in the Tennessee
River fO' certain. Polly: you just step
here"
But Polly had heard Cavendish speak,
and the murmur of Yancy's voice in re-
ply. Now her head appeared beside her
husbands.
La, you are some better, amt you,
sir?" she cried, smiling down on him.
It's been right smart of a spell, too:
yes, sir; you've laid like you was dead.

Pressman Jim veatch has returned
from an enjoyable trip through Ohio and
Indiana, which he and Mrs. V, made
mostly by trolley lines.
Charles B. Crowley, of Lowell Mass.
has resigned as secretary-treasurer Of
the International Printing Pressmen and
Assistants Union, and Joseph c. Orr. of
Chicago, has been elected to fill out the
unexpired term. During his service of
about four years in the office Mr.. Crow
ley had proved himself most efficient and
capable. but during the past two years
the duties of the position, with the erec-
ton OF the buildings for the home for
superannuated members and technical
school at Hale Springs, Tenn, had be-
come so stupendous that his health be-
came impaired, and his resignation is
the result. The new officer has been
secretary OF Chicago Web Pressmen's
Union for number Of years, and Is high
ly recommended.
Frederick L. Fridley has been elected
chairman Of the monotype chapel, vice
Charles s. Shutterly, resigned. Mr. Shut
terly is in poor health and anticipates
spending some time at White Sulphur
Springs, Va, in the hopes Of improve
ment.
The punishment inflicted upon Charley
Fisher, former proofroom messenger.
being dismissed from his position and
sentenced to serve sixty days at Occo-
guam, is sincerely regretted by every one
of those with whom he had been asso-
ciated for a long term Of years. That he
was guilty Of violating the rules Of the
office and also the laws against horse
racing is beyond question, but that he
willfuIly did either many people will be
hard to convince. An honest, industrious,
faithful man, ready and willing to oblige
at all times, one who could be trusted in
all things, is the reputation he bears
among those who know him best Act
ing in an Illegal capacity he undoubtedly
was in carrying messages for men who
knew they were doing wrong, but that he
did so innocently most people believe and
that he is the victim of a desire to please
and oblige. much more than for gain, is
the opinion of a large number who hope
that some way may be devised to help
him out of the difficulty
Chief Reviser Henry W. Weber was
chosen treasurer of the Indiana Society
at its recent election.
At Lewis Hall, 1902 Fourteenth street

ture on the Passion Play at Oberam-
mergau." in aid Of a widow of a former
G. p. o. pressman. who is IN needy cir
cumstances. The entertainment is in
charge of a committee of the best char
ity workers among the women Of the G.
p. O., and is deserving of the aid and
support Of the entire force.
