CHAPTER VI.-continued.

Il know why he went out so far"
remarked Porter. HE is running
without lights"
THAT in itself is suspicious, isn't
It?" Orme asked.
Why, yes, l suppose so-though
people aren't always as careful as
they might be. Our own lights aren't
lighted, you see."
Have you any clue at all as to
where she is?"
sounds came from just before the ex-
plosions stopped. She had headway
enough to slide some distance after
that, and I'm allowing for it-and for
the currents. With the lake as it Is,
she would be carried in a little"
For nearly half an hour they contin-
ued straight out toward mid-lake.
Orme noticed that there was slight
swell. The lights of Evanston were
now mere twinkling distant points,
far away over the dark void Of the
waters.
Porter shut off the power. I'VE
must be pretty near her." he said.
They listened intently.
Perhaps l steered too far south"
said Porter at last.
He threw on the power, and sent
the boat northward in slow, wide
circles. The distant steamship had
made progress toward the northeast
bound, perhaps, for Muskegon, or
some other port on the Michigan
shore. She was a passenger steam
er, apparently, for lines of portfolios
and deck-windows were marked by
dots of light. There was no other
sign of human presence to be seen on
the lake. and Orme's glance ex-
pectantly wandered to her lights now
and then.
AT last, while he was looking at it,
after a fruitless search of the dark
ness, he was startled by strange
phenomenon. The lights of the
steamer suddenly disappeared. An
instant later they shone out again.
With an exclamation, Orme seized
the steering-wheel and swung it over
to the right.
There she is, he cried, and then:
Excuse me for taking the wheel that
way, but was afraid I'd lose her"
Il don't see her" said Porter.
NO; but something dark cut off
the lights Of that steamer. Hold her
So" He let go the wheel and peered
ahead
Presently they both saw a spot Of
hiacker blacknesS in the night Por-
tar set the motor at half-speed
Have you got bulTs-eye lantern?"
asked Orme In all undertone.
Yes, in that locker"
Orme stopped and lighted the lam
tern in the shelter Of the locker.
Now run up alongside" he said,
"and ask if they need help"
The outline of the disabled boat
now grew more distinct. Porter
swung around toward it and called:
Need help?"
After a moments wait, a voice re-
piled:
"Yes. You tow me to Chicago. 1
pay you"
1t was voice which Orme recog-
inzed as that Of the Japanese who
had been with Maku in the attack
at the Pere Marquette.
Cant do that" answered Porter.
''I'1l take you in to Evanston"
mol" The tone was expostula-
tory. II go to Chicago. l fix engine
pretty soon"
At this moment Orme raised his
lantern and directed its light into the
other boat. 1t shone into the blinking
eyes of the Japanese. standing by the
motor. 1t shone-
Great Heaven! Was he dreaming
Orme could not believe his eyes, The
light revealed the face of the one
person he least expected to see-for,
seated on a cushion at The forward
end of the cockpit, was the girl!

Columbia. Jan. 6.--With the tim,
for the convening OF the State legis-
iature only three days distant. the
usual preparations are being made In
the capital to make the solons as
comfortable as possible. The hand
some new roller top desks are being
placed in tae house and both iegis-
lative hans are being thoroughly
ventilated. Already several of the
engrossing clerks are on hand pre-
pared for the rush Of business soon
to begin.
IT Is practically certain that the
Forthcoming legislature will not in
terfere with the present liquor law.
The senate. which contained major
ity OF local optionists last year. viii

nor-eicct Blease would have the sub
stitution OF high license done in a
manner to prevent the return Of bar
rooms. since ne has stated In pub
lic speeches that he is irrevocabiy op-
posed TO the old system.

Benevolent people. interested In peace

The answer to this question can be ap-

The whole world was lost in sin and
was under condemnation to death as un-
worthy OF life. unworthy of Divine favor.
Whether. therefore. God permitted them

We sometimes designate natural death,
