TOO MUCH FOR HIS COURAGE
Student, Sent for One Breakfast Roll,
Found Himself In Position Which
Caused Embarrassment.

While visiting his married brother
In New York recently, n Cornell stu
dent was sent by his sister-in-law to
buy one breakfast roll at the bakers.
The careful judgment displayed by his
brothers wife In making both ends
meet, with a little bit owe each week
for the bank, had long been q topic Of
conversation among members Of the
family, some of whom thought her pos
sessed of great moral courage, because
she would ask the grocer's clerk to
wrap up two cents worth Of beans, q
delicacy she fed to the cat.
The college boy started for the shop,
but his nerve forsook him at the mo-
ment when n demure little thing be-
hind the counter inquired as to his
immediate wants. Instead Of asking
for one roll he asked for a dozen.
On his way back to his brothers
apartment, which is on Central Park
West, in the nineties. the sophomore's
nerve again forsook him. So he wait

Neal answered the summons and "a

him. The Brute, grasping in his hand
a sapling, leaned far out from the
shore of the little islet and with n
hand grasped Annette, drew her, drip
ping from the quagmire and set her
or dry land.
Behind him he heard shouts.
In a frenzy Of fear, he seized Ponto's
body, slung 1t over his shoulder, and
then, with the instinct Of a brute and
not a man, he leaped lightly, but sure
ly, from bog to bog, and disappeared
along some painless trail.
Ten minutes later Annette, in the
midst Of a motley crowd of tars and
natives-and in the glare Of many
torches, was answering Meals whis-
pered question.

felt her skirts plucked by a clutching
hand. She looked down. A native-a
mere bag of bones in a tumble Of rags
-crouched at her feet.
Little white angel" whined the ma
tive In Spanish-and Annette had
learned enough of the tongue to listen
to appeals for help-"my daughter
just like you-so kind, and pretty.
She lies at deaths door. You have
food, you have medicine-and you can
lay your hand on her. She will get
we'll. What you have done for 9TH
ers you can do for her"
An officer from the Albany turned
the corner. Annette's heart leaped.
The man was Neal Hardin.
"Neal," she cried, listen to him
talk 70 him for me. Ask him where
his daughter is-Ill 60 unless it's too
far"
Neal spoke to the man in his native
language. The man jabbered back
%eloquently.
"Only a short distance out of town."
said Neal, "over that hill"
"Ill CO." said Annette.
Neal pondered for a moment. "An
right" he said, "and I'm free Just
now. I'll 60 with YOU"
The native leaped to his feet with
alacrity and ran crookedly ahead Of
them. Outside Of the town they
plunged into underground and then
through woods-but the ground was
dry and the trail was fairly good.
At the door Of a hut the native
paused and motioned them in.
Neal and Annette entered side by
side. In a dark corner was a huddled
shape under a filthy cloth. Annette
sprang toward 1t. At that instant the
native dropped to the ground and
clutched Meals ankles tightly in each
hand. At the same instant the hud.
died figure in the corner leaped to its
feet-it was no stricken girl-it was
Hernandez, with the light Of triumph
in his eyes. And at the same instant
Ponto and the brute sprang into the
fray. .
It was only q matter Of a moment
before Annette and Neal found them
selves bound and lying on the floor.
