stiIl to declare their final dividends for
the year. the total payments for 1913 will
exceed the $1i1,oOo.OOo mark by a eonsid-
cradle margin.
Disbursements to Standard. on share
holders this year exceed the United
States Steel Corporations annual divi-
dends by something like s60,O00,co0, and
are from $3o,0O0.o00 to SIS. 10000 in excess
of the Steel Corporations annual interest
and dividend payments combined. This
does not include the numerous stock divi-
dends distributed this year.
The years cash dividends compare with
S., SIS, S34 paid by the Standard OIL COM
panies in 1912. The heavy increase Is
largely due to the s40.00o0oO cash melon
distributed by the New Jersey company
last February. With the payment of a
final dividend of IS a share the New Jer-
sey company alone will have paid out this
year almost seo,ooo.oO0. or $50 sshare, in
dividends
On account OF the $40 extra disburse-
ment in the early part of the year, the
declarations for the second six months,
to date, show n considerable falling of
from those of the first half OF the year.
Dividends declared fer the second six
months have thus far aggregated $40. 49,
600. as compared with s71,25O,OOO paid in
the first six months of 1918.

agreed that small mercy would be shown
to Gerald IL he had been caught. Tht
| frst news of the night was brought Il
the castle by Dan. who came across tho
hills by a short cut and risked his liberty
to see his daughter before taking flight
! Gerald had been taken. As the latter
dashed down the road after his struggle
with Burke he ran into a squad OF sol
diers. who at once leveled their muskets
at him and compelled him to surrender
AT this news a cry OF grief went Ut
from the servants, n weird wall that one
can only hear in the mountains OF Ire
land. That keen or lament that strikes
| terror into the heart OF the listener who
hears IL for the first time. They knew
that the death knell had been sounded for
Gerald. and their hearts were stricken
with grief. Dan held down his head for
n few minutes so that the others might
not see the tears in his eyes. and then
beckoned his daughter and Terry over to
him.
Its all over he said. And it's me-
self tbat'll have to fly this blessed day.

sobbed Kathleen.
Terry scratched his head. 1t was a
way he had of showing his perplexity.
Maybe, as a special favor. they'll
shoot him." he murmured. Kathleen
turned angrily.

Dan. turning away. God bless ye both
and may ye live many years to enjoy
it." The old rebel walked slowly be-
hind the chapel and was lost to sight
in the woods Of Ballymara in a few
minutes. while Terry and Kathleen
looked tearfully after him.
There was not much time for sobs,
however, for across the hills came the
tap Of the drum. telling them that the
soldiers were returning TO Ballymara
and bringing with them the young pa
triot, in whom not only the hopes of
the people of Ballymara were centered,
but that of the insurgent cause 1t had

came In to offer his consolation in the
hour Of her trouble. He came in the
| nick OF time. for few minutes later
Maj. Grimston returned with a squad of
men. bearing on a stretcher the body of
a man. 1t was the body of Gerald O'Don-
nell. he said. The men on the beach had
positively identified 1t. At the request of
Father O'Kelly the body was taken to
an clubhouse, there to remain until proper
disposition could be made of it. This had
| scarcely been done when Brian Burke,
entering the room. identified Judy Nc
Shane as Lady Moya Fitzpatrick. and IN
a sneering tone asked what disposition
she wished made OF Gerald's body. The
major reprimanded Burke for his manner
of speech. and told Lady Moya that he
and his men were at her service. She
thanked him and begged him to have
the body taken to Ballymara, where II
could rest in the chapel on the estate.
This he promised to do. AS he and
Burke continued their pursuit of the
unfortunate Frenchmen on the beach.
Dan Riordan and Terry Malloy. the serv-
ing men OF Lady Moya, were on their
way to the inn with a huge hamper.
which almost broke their backs with its
weight. They deposited It on the inn
floor. in the room where Lady Moya was
sobbing her heart away. The freight II
contained was most precious to all. for
II was nothing less than Gerald ODon-
nell. alive and well. He had escaped by
swimming and hid in a cave where
he was found by Dan. who supplied him
with dry clothes. and thus brought him
to a place OF safety. The meeting be-
tween him and Lady Moya was Joy
full one. and was made no less so by
Father O'Kelly uniting them there and
then in marriage.
The house was surrounded still by the
soldiers, and the problem OF getting Ger
aid away to Ballymara Castle was a
grave one, but it was solved In daring
fashion by Gerald, who took tho place OF
the dead Frenchman on the stretcher;
and when the soldiers arrived TO take
him to Ballymara he was the finest
corpse they ever carried.
1t was a long journey across the noun
tains to the borders of Kildare. and a
most uncomfortable one for Gerald. who
was obliged to remain in one position
most of the night He was cheered on
the way by his friend Terry, who drove
the cart on which he was carried. Terry, l
pretending to talk to himseuf, gave Ger
aid all the news, and many times almost
caused him to laugh outright at some
amusing incident. Lady Moya and Maj.
Grmston rode ahead and ignored Burke,
who rode silently behind them.
Dawn broke just as they came within
sight of Ballymara Castle. and here
they parted with Burke, who went to
his own home to change his clothing.
The litter was lifted from the cart and
placed inside the little chapel in charge
of a sergeant During the time when |
