The blushing Enid made an impulsive
movement to tear herself away from
Newbold's arms, but he shamefully
held her close. The three men looked
at the two lovers solemnly for a mo-
ment and then broke into laughter. It
was Kirkby who spoke first.

Il found something far more valua-

"And what was that?" asked the old

"This!" answered Newbold as ha
kissed the girl again.

mon thing is to patch the shell of q
ship. The great, jagged rent in her
side, it may be, where the bow Of
another vessel has cut into her. or
which has been gashed open by a
sharp rock. has to be prepared for

out.
Wonderful Feats in Salvage.
Measurements have to be taken,
from which the patch can be made.
shaped SO that it will fit nicely. Prob
ably holes have to be drilled in the
ships skin-all, be it remembered, I'M
der the water-and finally the patch
has to be put in place and secured
with bolts. Then, when the diver has
done all that, the water is pumped out
and the ship aoated.
OF course in some cases the divers
work may only be to fix or run ropes
by which the vessel may be lifted.
but often he has much skillful work
to perform under the difficult condi-
tions of complete immersion in water
in thick, clumsy dress and under
an abnormal pressure Of air. 1t is,
indeed, wonderful what salvage divers
can do.
There are, however, instances in
which ships have been literally fish
ed up" from the depths to which
divers could not descend. One which
occurs to the writer was that of a
small naval vessel sunk in collision
of the south coast. Two steam tugs
held the ends of long cable, and by
slowly dragging it along the sea floor
they caught the wreck and drew the
cable under it.
Several cables were thus got in
place, and then, being pulled tight at
low water, the tide lifted the ships
above and so lifted the wreck as we'll,
whereupon it was towed into shallow
peated at every tide, the wreck was at
last beached.
In one we'll known instance of
! salvage a ship was literally cut in
two, but the two halves were in good
| condition, and it was resolved to save
them both. The divers put in tenn
porary end of timber to each and SO
they were raised, taken to the near
est shipyard and there joined togeth-
er again.
The salvage of wrecks is very diff
ficult and daring business, but there
are men who are expert at it and
whose experience is so extensive that
they seldom fail at job which they
once undertake. 1t is only fair. to
say, however. that they are much in.
debted to the splendid divers equip
ment which is now procurable, with
out which much that they do would
| be quite impossible.

Eyes, they are distantly related to

II have always understood that to
be the truth"
"Ah, very satisfactory connection
indeed" said Stephen Maitland with
10 little satisfaction. Proceed, SIR"
There is nothing much else to say
about myself, except that love your
daughter and with your permission
want her for my wife"
Mr.. Maitland had thought long and
seriously over the state of affairs. He
had proposed in his desperation to
give her hand to Armstrong 1t he
Sound her. It had been impossible to
keep secret the. story Of her adven-
ture. her rescue and the death Of Arm
strong. It was natural and inevitable
that gossip should have busted itself
with her name. It would therefore
have been somewhat difficult for Mr..
Maitland to have withheld his consent
to her marriage to almost any repu-
table man who had been thrown 80 in
timately with her, but when the man
was 80 unexceptiQnably born and bred
as Newbold, what had appeared as
more or less disagreeable duty. almost
an imperative imposition. became a
pleasure!
Mr.. Maitland was no bad Judge Of
men when his prejudices were not
rampant, and he looked with much sat
isfaction on the fine. clean limbed,
clear eyed, vigorous man who was at
present suing for his daughters hand.
Newbold had shaved of his beard and
had cropped close his mustache; he
was dressed in the habits Of civiliza-
ton and he was almost metam-
orphosed. His shyness wore away AZ
he talked and his inherited ease Of
manner and his birthright Of good,
breeding came back to him and sat
easily upon him.
Under the circumstances the very
best thing that could happen would
be q marriage between the two. in.

In compliance with his brothers

''Now," said Mr.. Stephen Maitland

by all MEANS" answered the young
or, and opening the door again the
two older men went out leaving New
bold alone.
"But don't quite understand" quer-
led Mr.. Stephan Maitland.
He heard soft step on the stair
in the hall without; the gentle swish
of dress as somebody descended
from the floor above. A vision ap-
peared in the doorway. Without q
movement in opposition, without
word of remonstrance, without throb
Of hesitation on her part, he took her
in his arms. From the drawing-room
opposite, Mr.. Robert Maitland softly
tiptoed across the hall and closed the
library door, neither of the lovers be-
ing aware of his action.
Often and often they had longed for
each other on the opposite side OF a
door, and now at last the woman was
in the mans arms and no door rose
between them, no barrier kept them
apart any longer. There was no obli-
cation Of loyalty or honor, real or i'm
agined. to separate them now. They
had drunk deep of the chalice Of cour-
age, they had drained the cup to the
very bottom, they had shown each
other that though love was the great
est Of passions. honor and loyalty were
the most powerful of forces. and now
they reaped the reward Of their abne-
cation and devotion.
At last the woman gave herself up
to him in complete and entire aban-
donment without fear and without re-
proach; and at last the man took what
was his own without the shadow Of
reservation. She shrank from no
pressure Of his arms. she turned her
face away from no touch of his lips.
They two had proved their right to
surrender by their ability to conquer.
Speech was hardly necessary be-
tween them, and it was not for q long
time that coherent words came. Little
murmurs of endearment, little pas
sionatc whispers Of beloved name
these were enough then.
When he could find strength to deny
himself little and to hold her at
arms length and look at her, he found
her paler, thinner and more delicate
than when he had seen her in the
mountains. She had on some witching
creation of pale blue and silver; he

Ted Angel is a cowboy and he
doesn't give darn who knows It. He
is range barn and range bred and he
can ride anything that ever had two
ears and a tail, but after an expert
ence with Jim Estes automobile last
night he has TO admit that "gol

Angel, accompanied by another
cowpmcher by the namo Of Reeves,
erriyed yesterday from their home at

brought 300 head Of horses which
they intend selling here, but last
night while ON a sight seeing expedl-
ton, they wandered down TO Round

try out their teams. The Estes auto
was standing ON the track empty and
It's seat was inviting to the two buck
orooes. After watching the proceed

idea that he could drive the buzz
wagon aud he ordered his Compan-
Ion to turn the crank.
The crank was turned and some

Refuses to Stampede.
The poll of the Clark leaders gave
Wilson as high as $50 votes. He
reached sol on the 39th ballot. Then
his strength began to slip. On the
42nd ballot, taken just before the
convention recessed, early today, his
strength was 494 votes and It was
asserted by Wood of Michigan that
on the next ballot he would lose 20
additional in Michigan.
AS in the case of Clark, all at
tempts at a stampede failed. The
Wilson managers have done their
best to bring about condition
whereby they could start the boom
over the crest of the hill, but to date
this convention has proven stampede
proof.
