CHAPTER II.
Dick BRINGS a Hostaae.

In Staten island 1t is spring. Nature
beckons. Across the bay from old
Manhattan come new hosts to taste
agrarian Joys. Bob is happy; James
In in his glory. Seeds are sprouting
In the garden. A bed OF radishes have
thrown up their green shoots, the first
harbingers of the season. Pale sprigs
of early lettuce are peeping out. Be-
meath the glass frames Of the hotbeds
Jumbo tomato plants are creeping up
ward. You can almost see them grow.
Pine sticks supporting empty packets
mark the site OF embryo beets, peas
and kohl-rabi, and here is row Of
poles for the delicious lima bean.
Back in her wire prison the Plym-
outh Rock sings and cackles, and be-
side her another fuses and scratches
for her brood OF fluffy chicks. On the
porch OF the Reynolds cottage ca,
nary trllls and MARBLES, answering the
chatter OF myriad sparrows. In the
kitchen James song browns the clat-
ter OF the dishes. Music is in the
air; life Is in the blood. Even Mrs.
Collins has ceased to grumble. 1t Is
spring.
The Reynolds dinner is for three
tonight. For the first time since their
coming the new home is to receive an
urban caller.
Good old Dick" said Jane as she
set his place at tt table. Il do hope
he won't disappoint US
Her fear was groundless. Dick
Meade would not disappoint her, for
he was an atom in the great legion
of the unattached; a bachelor and
alone. He had not formed the habit
Of declining invitations to dinner.
Dick was a reporter on morning
newspaper in New York; a political
reporter with leaning toward social.
ism and leniency toward drink.
Poor, blue-eyed, boyish Dick, with
a panacea for all earthly ills except
his own: champion OF the downtrod-
den, but one of them; an aspiring St
Patrick longing to drive out all the
hydra-headed serpents OF monopoly
with a wand Of words; a dreamer Of
dreams, but ilovable1 withal, and a
stanch friend He and Reynolds
were almost opposite types and this
very difference in their lives made
them compassionate. Dick. also, was
not blind to the attractions Of his
friends young wife. She was charm
inR hostess. he thought The dulcet
harmony Aegfound In this home often
lulled his own ,feverish philosophy. or,
at least, upset It.
Jane heard them approaching now
and hurried out to the veranda.
Welcome, stranger" she said after
she had escaped from Bob's embraces
You have almost forsaken u.s."
Dick responded with laugh and an
obsequious bow. Never. fair one; l
have merely been conserving re-
sources that I may pay toll to corpo-
rate interests en- route. Thirty cents
for the round trip, Jane Enough for
wiener schnitzel and two pilseners.
Besides. I bring tribute to my island
queen. Seel" He held up paste
board box punctured here and there
with airholes that he concealed. Jane
took 1t from him
Something alivel" she cried as she
tried to peep into one of the aper-
lures. She ran into the house for
scissors and returning. cut the string.
| Within there peered at her from two
sleepy, light-blinded eyes, fox ter
rier puppy, diminutive and finally
marked.

One can readily understand the absorb

HUERTA CUNBOAT
SINKS HER RIVAL
Rebel Captain Ends Life
and American Sailors
Rescue Crew.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, June 1.-THE Mexican
gunboat Tampico, which became Con-
stitutionalist property in February when
it's officers and crew went over to the
revolution, has been sunk off Topolo-
bampo by the Federal gunboat Guerrero
according to a despatch received at the
Navy Department from Rear Admiral
Howard, commanding the American deet
on the west coast. Captain Malpico and
chief engineer of the Tampico when they
lost their vessel committed suicide.
The combat between the two little gun
boats was witnessed by the American
warships New Orleans, Perry and Preoie'
1t was their second combat. On April
! the Guerrero hit the Tampico ten
times and the latter vessel was taken TO
Topolobampo and grounded. Her
machinery was still in order and she was
finally refioated She left Topolobamco
on June II. At $50 on the morning OF
the 18th she was attacked by the Guerrero
and at noon was sunk in twenty fathoms
Of water. Many of her crew were
wounded. The survivors were rescued
by boats from the cruiser New Orleans
and from the Guerrero: The surgeon OF
the New Orleans went aboard the Gusr-
zero and assisted in caring for the
wounded.
The Guerrero is now the only vessel OF
either faction left on the west coast
After her victory she headed south for
Mazatan, where she will be OF m
estimable value to the beleaguered gar
rison by preventing the rebels under
General Oregon from occupying POSI-
tons. -
A new problem fer American dipio-
macy has been Injected into the existing
situation by the taking OF survivors
aboard the United States vessels. To put
them ashore or to turn them over TO the
rebels would be a violation of neutrality
They will probably therefore be brough'
10 the United States and interned.
