CHAPTER TX.
We Attain tho Ottawa.

It was not yet dawn when the stir
in the camp aroused me, and the sun
had not risen above the bluffs. or be-
gun to tinge the river, when our laden
canoes left the bank and commenced
their days journey up stream. DAT
tigny was Off in advance, departing in
deed before l had left the tent, the
chief seated beside him. / caught but
q glimpse of them as the canoe round
ed the bend in the bank, and slipped
silently away through the lingering
shadows, yet 1t gladdened me to know
his eyes were turned toward my tent
until they vanished.
A new distribution had been ar
ranged, Chevet accompanying the SER
geant, leaving the commissaire and
me alone, except for the pere, who had
position in the bow. l observed this
new arrangement from underneath
lowered lashes, but without comment,
quietly taking the place assigned me,
and shading my face from the first
rays of the sun.
At noon we landed in a sheltered
cove, brilliant with wild flowers, and
partook Of food, the rearward canoes
joining US, but D'Artigny was still
ahead, perhaps under orders to keep
away. To escape Cassion clambered
up the front Of the cliff, and had view
from the summit, marking the sweep
of the river for many league,
scene of wild beauty never to be for
gotten. l fingered there at the edge
until the voice of the commissaire re-
called me to my place in the canoe.
1t Is Of no consequence now what
we conversed about during that long
afternoon, as we pushed steadily on
against the current. Cassi0n en-
deavored to be entertaining and I
made every effort to encourage him,
although my secret thoughts were not
pleasant ones. He had set out to over
come my scruples, to conquer my will,
and was merely .biding his time, seek
ing to learn the best point Of attack.
1t was with this end in view that he
kept me to himself, banishing Chevet,
and compelling D'Artigny to remain
well in advance. He was testing me
now by his tales Of Quebec, his boast
Ing of friendship with the governor,
his stories of army adventure, and
the wealth he expected to amass
through his Official connections. Yet
the very tone he assumed, the conceit
shown in his narratives, only served
to add to my dislike. This creature
was my husband. yet I shrank from
him, and once. when he dared to touch
my hand, I drew it away az though
It were minatioa. II wss then

He shook his head gloomily, as
though 1t was all deep puzzle to
his mind, yet his great hand held forth
the pistol, the short barrel of which
cleaned wickedly in the fire glow as

CHAPTER vIII.--continued.

Furious as the man was felt no
fear Of him, merely an intense dis
gust that bis hands should touch me-
an indignation that he should offer
me such insult. He must have read
all this in my eyes, for he made but

An instant he hesitated, trying to
muster courage, but the bully in him
failed. and with an oath, he turned

PROFITING FROM
RECENT REGATTA

Pensacola has received much. pub
licity this year on account of the July
4 regatta from New Orleans, when
the new express cruiser Quicksilver
owned by Commodore Jaclncke won
over seven other contestants. The de-
sign of the yacht, and her perform
ance in the long run has been of par
ticular interest to yachtsmen over the
country and recent issues of motor
boating magazines have contained
pictures of the craft, and an account
of herp art in the race.
Well known manufacturers of mo-
tors and parts have used the race in
advertising their wares, and in this
way have brought Pensacola into the
eye of yachtsmen everywhere.
The latest issue of The Barometer,
! the monthly publication of the South
ern Yacht Club, is entirely devoted
to recounts of the storm, by parties
aboard the various vessels that took
part in the race, and contains several
photographs of wrecks in the hurri.
