Tkis maa bad something to give, something to tear away from his own heart and bold eat with generous, smiling eyes, and, b fora Miss Winter's doer had closed be hind aim, the sacrlflr was made. H called a hansom cab and drove straight te Tyars' club. II found his friend at wok among his ship's pspers, foldiag sad soaking up In packets his receipted bill. "Mora In 1," said the Enrllabman. "Tbeaa papers are almost ready te be banded over to ydu. All my stores are a board." -Ah 1" Tyars looked op shsrply, and as sharp ly returned to bis occupation. Easton was grave, and Tyars knew that b had com with news of soma sort. lis waited, ae-s-ever, for the American to begia, and eoatlaued to fold and arrangt his papers. "I have," said Easton, sitting down and tapping the neat to of his boot with his ease, "hit qnit accidentally upon a dis covery " "Poor chap !" muttered Tyars, abstact dly. "Which will make a diference la your crew." "What?" exclaimed Tyars, pausing In the middle of a knot. "On rule," continued Easton, his queer little face twisting sad twinkling with soma emotion, which he wss endeavoring te conceal, "was that no sweethearts or wives were to be left behind." "What are you driving at?" asked Tyars, curtly, In a aingularly lifeleis Vole. "Well, old man, I have discovered a sweetheart." Tyars threw the pspers In a heap and rot suddenly from his seat. II walkfi to the mantel piece. "Of course," be tald, "your discovery can only relate to on person." "Ts; you know whom I mean." Tyars nodded his head In acquiescence and continued smoking. Th little Amer ican sat looking in a curious way at this large, Impassive, high-bred EngHhmsn, as K gathering enjoyment an I ediflcatioa tk atndy of him. "Well." k drawled, at length, "yon aay etbmg " Trher Is nothing to say. "On U contrary," retoraad Eastoa, Mir Is every thing to say.

"I am not quit snrs that lt Is my business," h said. "I acts eddllng In othtr peoples afalrt, and. after all, I suppose Oraos knowa bst what b la doing." Mn raraly know what thy ar doing ander ths circumstanoss," observed Eas- B wsltd patiently, hat la hand, te hear what Tyars had te say. Walls hs stood there. Muggins, the bnll-terrir, rose from th hearth rug, stretched himself and looked from oa te tb ether In an In quiring and anticipatory manner. H took it to be a question of going for a walk, and apparently Imagined that th easting vot was him. "All right," said Tyars, saddealy, "I will speak to him agsln." "To-day?" pursued Easton, following np his advantage, "or to-morrow at th latest." "Tsj to-morrow at th latest." Then th American took his departure, and Muggins curled himself up on th hearth rug agala with a yawn ef disap pointment. Oswin Grace was seated In th bright littk cabin at a table writing ent lists of stores. Msny of thes sam stores were piled on the deck around 'him, aad ther waa a pleasant odor of paraffins In th air. Tyars closed tk cabin door with his elbow. "I do not see," he said, slowly and un comfortably, "how you can vary well go with us." Grace laid asld his pen and raised his keen, gray eyes. His brow was wrinkled, his lips sat, his eyes full ef fight. Became, suggested Grsce, in a hard vole, "I am in lov with Agnes Win- UrsT" Tyara nodded bis head and atooped te pick up hia glovea, holding them subse quently close to the bars of th store, whtre they steamed gsyly. The was a sllne ot some duration, and every sec ond fhcreased the discomfort ef Claud Tyars. "And you," continued Grace, at length, very deliberately, "love Helen!" Tyar stood upright, so that his head was very near the beams. II thrust his gloves lato bis pocket and stood for som seconds, grsspiug his short pointed beard meditatively with th uninjured band. "Ys," be said, "I do." (frac returned to his ship chandler's bllli with the air ot a barrister who, baring established hia point, thinks it prudent to allow time for lt to aiak lato th bralas ef judge snd jury. "I de not mind telling you," h added, carelessly, almost too carelessly, "that Miss Winters Is perfectly indilrat on sb subject." "Do you know that for certain T" asked Tyars, sharply. "Kb told in s herself," snswerad Grac, with a peculiar little laugh which eras not plessaut to th car. II waited obviously for a reciprocal confidence oa tb part of Tyars; but ba waited Is vaiu. "Ot course," be said, "I hav no desir te meddl with your affair. I ask no question, and I look for no spontaneous confidences. It will be belter for you to lose sight altogether of the coincidence that 1 am her brother." Tyars had seated himself on the corner of tL cablu thle, with bis back half turttft.l toward his companion, lie hsd picked up a piece of straw, of which tliwr wa a (pisiitity lying on table anil floor. and thin lie uim biting meditatively. It was as yet entirely s puxil to him, and this wss only a new complication. He roull not understand it, just as better men than (Maud Tyars hav failed to un derstaud it all through. For no one, I tak It, does understand lovs, and no man can say whitber It will lead. "Ther need," rontlnuad Oswin Oraco, perforating a scries ot small bole In hU blotting paper with uo point of a cedar wood pencil, "be no mnncn ef that sort. I am aolug to take It upoa myself te watch over Helen's lu to rests ; they ar i much safer In your band than la mia.' Still Tyars aald nothing, and attar a little pause, Grace went on, la measured, thoughtful tones, carrying with them tha welcht ot dVliberatloa. "There Is on point," b said, "upon which I tbink ther must be aa under standing." "Tea," aald Tyars aaxloualy. "Aay risksextra risks, such aa boat work, alght-work up aloft these must be mine. From what yon bar aald, I gath er that your intention was t be skipper, and yet do tb rough work as well. Wba anything hasardon is to b don, I shall do ft. Yen must sthst te th shin." "I hav no doubt." said Tyars, seating bimself at tb tasl aad beginning ts open his letters, "tost w srs all con structing a very fin meuatala ent of ma terials intended for a molehill. I, lor one, hav no intention of leaving my bone In the far North. Ther Is n rea son why w should aot all b back horn by this time aexi year." Won at all," agreed Oswin somewhat perfunctorily, sddine, with a suspicion of doubt th next minute: "Suppose we succeed 7" "Well, whst then?" "Suppose w get there all right, rcu th men and go oa aafely ; we get over the elemental danger, and then we hav to face the political, which la wars." I do not see It," replied Tysrs. "W sell the ship st Kin Frsncisco. Half th crw expect to be paid off there, th other half will disperse with their passage money In their pockets, and very few of them will find their way bark to England. Our doctor is a German socialist, with seversi slisses; our second mate a sim ple-minded Norwegian whaling skipper. The exiles do not knew a word of Eng lish, or pretend they do not, and non of th crew speaks Russlsn. There will be absolutely no Intercourse ea board, and only yon, the doctor and myself will rer know who the rescued men really ar. Th crew will Imagine that thev re the anrvlvors of a Russian Ivory hunt ing expedition, and If the truth sver comes out, it will b impossible te prov that you and I knew better." But it will net b easy to keep th newrpapers qnlet." "W shall net attempt te keen them quit. It will only b a local matter. Th 8a a Fraaclae papers will publish libelous weedent ut our coaateaancee and a colaasa or two purporting te be bio graph leal, but th world will b little) ths wiser. Ia America such matters ars In teresting only In so much as they are per rons 1, and ther Is la reality netUag easier than the suppression of one's per sonslity. Ther is ne difficulty ia kick ing an latsrvlwr out ef tbe room, yuat aa sas would kick out any Intruder; aad ws ars quit ladlfereat aa te whether rh Americas newspapers abuse ns er not after having ba kicked. As t tbe de tails ef the voyage, I shall withhold those with th vlw ef publishing a book, which Is quite the correct thing nowadays. Ths book shall always be in course ef prepara tion, aad will never appear. la thla wis the two men continued talking, planning, scheming all the morn ing, while they worked methodically aad prosaically. Th ntvnth ef March waa fixed for th sailing ef th Arge, exploring vessel, and Eastoa 'a chief thought ea tbe sub ject was a vagii wonder aa to what h would d with himself after ah had gene. To Arge waa t paaa out of the tidal basis into the river at one o'clock, and at halt-past twlv Easton drov up to th dock gat. He brought with him th last Items of th ship's outfit la th ahac of a pil of newspapers, and a bunch of hothens rescs for th cabin table, for ther was t be a luncheon party on board while steaming dowa th river. H found Admiral Grace strolllaa about tb deck with Tyara, conversing in quit a friendly way, and endeavoring honestly te suppress bis contempt for sesmanship of so yeung a growth as that of his companion. The ladies were below, Inspecting the ship under Oswin'a guid ance.? "Sle Is," he said, addressing himself to the admiral, with transatlantic courtesy, strange mixture of the man-of-war and th yacht do you not find It ao, air?" 'She Is," answered the old gent'eman. guardedly, "one of tha most complete ves sels I hav ever boarded though her outward appearance is, of course, against her." 'One can detect," continued the Ameri can, looking round with a musing eye, th Influence ef a naval officer." The old gentleman softened visibly. At this moment the ladies appeared, escorted by Oswin Grace Miss Winter first, with a searching little amil In her eyes. Eas ton saw that ah was very much on th alert. "I feel quit at horn," ah aald to him, looking round her, "although ther ar ao many changes." "So do I ; th more so bees as th changes hav been mad under my own directions." They walked aft, leaving the rest of th party atandiag together. As they walked. Oswin Grace watched tbnm with a aingu lar light in his clear gray eyes; singular because gray tyes rarely gliaten, they only darken at times. Presently tb vessel glided smoothly b tween the slimy gates out Into the open river. The tow-line was cast off, and the Argo'a engines started. Ths vessel swung slowly round oa th grassy water, point lng her blunt, atubbera prow dowa tb misty river. She settled te her work with a docil readiness, like a farmer's mar on th outward road. CHAPTER XXIII. Had aa acuta but uninitiated observer been Introduced into th little cabin of th Argo during th consumption ef tb delicate repast provided by her officera, b or ah could scarcely hav failed te no tice a certain recklessness among th par ty assembled. Admiral Grac was th only on who really did justice to th stewsrd's maiden and auprem effort, and be, in consequence, wm singular In fail ing to appreciats tb witticism of Mat tbew Mark Eastoa and Oswin Grace. Thla was, perhaps, owiug to th fact that when we have pasted the half-way milewton In life, we fail to appreciate the most bril limit conversation. It is just poesibl that Admiral Grsce did not thtuk very much of the wit taken ss wit pure snd simple. Ills position was not unique. Once or twice Knutou't words reenrred to Mia Winter: "I intend to be luteuse ly ftiuuy. and I gue yon will have to laugh." This was her rue, snd she acted upon It. The meal came to aa end nnd a more was made. Thr ws nothing ls to do but to go on deck. Th moments dw!n (fed on with the slow, drtgging monotony which makes us almost Impatient te see tbe last of faces which w shall perhsp never look upon sgaiu. Presently, th town of Gravvsend hove In sight, and all wa tb quarterdeck ot tha Arge gaaed at it as they might have gated oa some an knowa Eastern city after traversing the ' aWrt. And then, after art at! the wanv lng. the prepsrsthm, the count tog ef as aients, sad the eilcqlttlng ef dlstaawes tbe bell In the engine room cam as a surprise. There wss something startling In ths clsng ef gng ss the engineer re plied. I Helen was tbe last to rise. She stood Doming tn auawl which iwm had spread ever her knees, and looked roand with a strange. Intense gsae. The steam er waa now drifting alowly en the tide with resting engines. There were two hosts rowing toward her from Graveseud Pier, one a low, green-painted wherry for tb pilot, the other a larger beat, with ataiaed aad faded red cushions. The seen the torpid, yellow river, the sor did town and low riverside warehouses could scares havs been exceeded for pure, unvarnlahed dismalness. Already the steps were being lowered. Ia a few moments the larger boat swung alongside, held by a rope mad fast In th forecast I ef tbe Argo. A general ware was mad toward th rail. Tyars passed out oa th gsngway, whtr h stood waiting to hand th ladles Into th boat. Helen was near to her brother; aha tamed te him snd kissed bim In si lence. Then shs went to th gangway. Ther was a little pause, and for a mo ment Helen and Tyara wer left alon at tbe foot of tbe brass-bound steps. "Good-by," said Tyars. There waa a alight prolongation of the laat syllable, as if bs had something ls to ssy; but h nevr said It, although sh gsv him time. "Good-by," sh answered, at length; and she, too, seemed te have something to sua wnica wss never added. Then ah atepped lightly Into the boat and took her place on the faded red cushions. The Argo went to sea that nlrht. There wa much to do, although evervthinr seemed to be In Its place, and every man appeared to know his duty. It thus bap- peneo teat xyars and Urac had not a moment to thmselvs until well on Into the night. Ths watch waa set at ft o'clock. For a moment Tvara named be fore leaving hia chief officer alone on the little bridge. 'What a clever fellow Easton la!" h aald. "I nsver rcognisd It until this afternoon." (Te be continued.) ROUNDUP OF WILD HORSES. ia Stat ( Wuklu. ta Be Clear of Orasa Caii.m.ra. Ont of the most exciting chases. If lt may be so called, that has taken place since tbe era of the grand buffalo hunt ended oa the great plateau, Is ths pre- posea roone up of l&JOQO wild horses la Douglas County, Washington. As sched uled, 400 cowboys will take part ta tb ride after these wild creatures of ths rang. The purpose Is to rid the range of this great band of grass consumers and tb effort, presumably, will be to dispatch rather than capture the horses. These untamed and practically un tamable snlmal ars th product of na ture left to Itself on th great range for thirty years. The stock Is Interbred and, ef course, underbred, and has no place la the sconomy f civilized life. Wall Its extermination will bs a gain te tbe legitimate stock breeding and raising Interests of the section over which th horses hare so long roamed at will, the Instincts of humanity are shocked at the cruelties that will he in flicted through ths means by whlcu this purpose Is to be accomplished. Perhaps this Is the best that can bs dons at this stsge of affairs to rid a wide section of ths country of a verita ble pest to the stock Industry. Like many ether scourges, ths remedy for this plagus of wild horses lays In pre vention. Th careless settlers of thirty years ago who allowed their ponies to run uncsred for on the range year after year were culpable In thla matter. Tbe result has been a multiplication of un profitable animals that have eaten out tha grass on the range for years to the detriment of tbe Interests of a legiti mate stock. Industry. Now comes the necessity of repairing the consequences of tbe settlers' carelessness and a "roundup" looking to the extermination of thousands of these wild creatures, with such cruelties as will be necessary to accomplish that end. The chase will be an exciting one, no doubt, and thi ultimate result will be beneficial. Cora Growers Aro Wasteful. While fully recognising tbe value ot corn crop In all sections and particu larly In the West, where It Is so largely grown, the fact remains that more of It is wasted than should be. Western farmers wear out themselves and their horses plowing under constalka wblcb could be put Into the ground much more easily and Inexpensively by cut ting the stalks, shredding them and feeding them to the stock, so ns to havs ths manura for tbe soil. If humus Is needed It csn be much more easily supplied than by plowing under corn stalks. Farmers of the East cannot understand why their brethren of the West follow corn with corn; perhaps, in tb East, It Is realized that tbe time has been when the changes wss forced on tbem, as lt must be, eventually, In tbe West We msy follow corn after corn now and for some years to come successfully, but we'll have to stop It sometime. Further, why should ws continue It until forced to stop, either In th West or elsewhere? If sections have found tbe rotation of crops profltabls Is ther any reason to assume that It will not bs equally successful elsewhere? On tbe other bsnd, If a soli Is able to grow crop af ter crop of corn with success. Is It not fair to assume that a short rotation, ssy three years, would give crops vblch would be more profitable and leave tlie soil In much better condition? Think It over, or, better still, experiment a little on small plots, and ace what the result Is. one a4 Slaerv. "Do you see that distinguished look ing man over there lth glue colored whiskers?

Parker Green, and Lincoln reverted to this the mo ment he rose to cross examine. 'Why J. Parker Greene? What did thnt J. stand for? John? Well, why didn't the wltneaa call himself John P. Green? Thnt was his name, wasn't It? Well, what was the reason he didn't wlsn to be known by bis right name? Did J. Parker Green have anything to conceal, and If not, why did J. Parker Green part bis name in that way?' And so on. Of course, the whole examination was farcical," Mr. Stevenson continued, "but there was something Irresistibly funny In the varying tones and Inflec tions of Mr. Lincoln's voice as he rang the changes upon the man's name; and at the recess the very boys in the street took up tbe slognn and shouted 'J. Par ker Green!' all over the town. More over, there was aomething In Lincoln's way of Intoning his questions which made me suspicious of the witness, and to this day I have never been able to rid my mind of the absurd Impression thnt there was something not quite right about J. Parker Green. It was all nonsense, of course, but the Jury must have been nffected aa I was, for Green was discredited nnd the defend ant went free." The Tide Turned. "There's a girl who ought to be sued for damages by the Union Trac tion Company! Her face stops traffic every time she looks toward tlie car lines." "Which girl?" "The one Just ahead of us." The speakers were two young men nd the "girl just ahead" chanced to overhear tlie remark. Her eye bias ing with anger, she turned upon her critics and demanded: I "What do you mean by saving my face would stop a trolley caT?" 1 "Pardon me, my dear young lady," quickly responded the offender. "You are mistaken as to what 1 said. I said your face stops traffic every time you look toward tbe car lines. Well, that's true. One sight of your pretty face makes tbe motorman forget ltiaw buslness, and he instinctively turns off the power." .A beatific smile Illumined ber face, and the Incident was closed.
