The Hotel Night Clerk.
Hotel Mail : It' has always been a
' Source of wonder among outsiders that
the night clerk should not be one of
th e highest salaried officials of a hotel ,
i instead of being , as he actually is , one
of the worst paid. Certainly no day
functionary , except the manager , has
so much responsibility , and even the
1 manager is less likely to be caught
without adequate means to act. The
night clerk is proprietor , manager and
superintendent combined during the
most critical hours of the twenty-four ,
and yet ranks in pay and preferment
far below the room clerks. Inquiries
of practical men have never elicited
any satis factory explanion of this , the
stock answer being that the night
cleric is often regarded merely as a
watchman.

By GEORGE MACDONALD.
CHAPTER XVII.
KEN INTRENCIIMENTS.
But this way of breaking into the
house every night did not afford me the
facility I wished. For I wanted to see
Lady Alice during the day , or at least
in the evening before she went to sleep ;
as otherwise I could not thoroughly
judge of her condition. So I got Wood
to pack up a small stock of provisions
for me in his haversack , uvllicll I took
with me ; and when I entered the house
that night , I bolted the door of the
court behind me , and made all fast.
I waited till the usual time for her
appearance had passed ; and , always
apprehensive now , as was very natural ,
I had begun to grow uneasy , when I
heard a voice , as I had heard it one
before , singing. Fearful of disturbing
her , I listened for a moment. Whether
the song was her own or not I cannot
be certain. When I questioned her
afterward , she knew nothing about it.
She ceased singing. Still she did not
enter. I went into the closet and found
that the door was bolted. When 1
opened it she entered , as usual ; and ,
when she came to herself , seemed still
better than before.
"Duncan , " she said , "I don't know
how it is , but I believe I must have
forgotten everything I ever knew. I
feel as if I had. I don't think I can
even read. Will you teach me my letters -
ters ? "
She had a book in her hand. I hailed -
ed this as another sign that her waking
and sleeping thoughts bordered on each
other ; for she must have taken Lac
book during her somnambulic condi-
tion. I ( lid as she desired. She seemed -
ed to know nothing till I told her. But
the moment I told her anything , she
knew it perfectly. Before she left me
that night she was reading tolerably ,
with many pauses of laughter that she
should ever have forgotten how. The
moment she shared the light of my
mind , all was plain ; where that had
not shone , all was dark. The fact was ,
she was living still in the shadow of
that shock which her nervous system
had received from our discovery and
my ejection.
As she was leaving me , I said :
"Shall you be in the haunted room
at sunset to-morrow , Alice ? "
"Of course I shall , " she answered.
"You will find me there then , " I rejoined -
joined ; "that is , if you think there is
no danger of being seen.
"Not the least , " she answered. "No
one follows me there ; not even Mrs.
Blakesley , good soul ! They are all
afraid , as usual. "
"And won't be frightened to see
me there ? "
"Frightened ? No. Why ? Oh ! You
think me queer , too , do yeti ? "
She looked very vexed , but tried to
smile.
"I ? I would trust you with my
life , " I said. "That's not much , though
-with my soul , whatever that means ,
Alice. "
"Then don't talk nonsense , " she rejoined -
joined , coaxingly , "about my being
frightened to see you.
When she had gone , I followed into -
to the old ball , taking my sack with
flue ; for , after having found the door
in the closet bolted , I was determined
not to spend one night more in my old
quarters , and never to allow Lady
Alice to go there again , if I could ire-
vent her. And I had good hopes , that ,
if we met in the day , the same consequences -
quences would follow as had followed
long ago , namely , that she would sleep
at night.
My object was to choose one of the
deserted rooms in which I might establish -
tablish myself without chances of
discovery. I had not turned many
corners , or gone through many passages -
ges , before I found one exactly to my. .
1
mind. I will not trouble my reader
with a description of its odd post 1
tion and shape. All I wanted was concealment -
cealment , and that it provided plenti-
fully. I lay down on the floor , and was
soon fast asleep. 1
Next morning , having breakfasted
from the contents of my bag , I proceeded - u '
ed to make myself thoroughly acquainted -
quainted with the bearings , etc. , of this t
portion of the house. Before evening , at
I knew it all thoroughly. 1
But I found it very difficult to wait
for the evening. By the windows of S
one of the rooms looking westward , 1
sat watching the down-going of the
sun. When he set , my moon would C
rise. As lie touched the horizon , I went
the old , Fell-known way to the haunted - u
ed chamber. b
One moment longer and a light hand '
was laid on the door. It opened gently ,
and Alice , entering , flawed across the 1
room straight to my arms. How beau
tiful she was ; her old fashioned dress
bringing her into barniony with the
oem and its old consecrated twilight ! t
For this room looked eastward , and o
there was only twilight there. She
brought me some water ; at my request ; u
and then we read , and laughed over ti
our reading. Every moment she not g
only knew something fresh , but knew r
that she had known it before. The h
dust of the years had to be swept away ti
but it was only dust , and flew at a Ii
breath. The light soon failed us in h
he dusky chamber ; and we sat and t
whispered , till only when we kissed o
could we see each other's eyes. : at c
engtlu Lady Alice said : k
"They are looking for me ; I bad beto
er go. Shall I come at night ? " h
"No , " I answered. "Sleep , and do e
not move. " b
"Very well , I will. n
She went , and I returned to my den. t
There I lay and thought. Had she g
ever been insane at all ? I doubted it. we
kind of mental sleep or stupor bad a
come upon her-nothing more. 1
Next evening we met again , and the s
nest , and many evenings. Every time p
was more convinced than before
that she was thoroughly sane in every h
ractical sense , and that she would
ecall everything as soon as I reminded 1
er. But this I forebore to do , fearing w
reaction. Ii

CHAPTER SV11I. w
ESCAPE. my
It was time , however , to lay some Ii
Ian , and make sores preparation for p
asurr - mm , x -
our departure. The first thing to be
secured was a convenient exit from the
house. I searched in all directions , but
could discover none better than that
by which I had entered. Leaving the
house one evening , as soon as Lady
Alice had retired , I communicated my
situation to Wood , who entered with 11
his heart into my projects. Most fortunately -
tunately , through all her so-called madness -
ness , Lady Alice had retained and cherished -
ished the feeling that there was something -
thing sacred about the diamond ring
and the little money which had been
intended for our flight before , and she
had kept them carefully concealed ,
where she could find them in a mo-
ment. I lead sent the ring to a friend
in London , to sell it for me ; and it pu-
duiced more than I had expected. I
lead then commissioned Wood to go to
the county town and buy a light gig for
me ; and in this he had been very fortunate -
tunate My dear old Constancy had
the accomplishment , not at all common
to chargers , of going admirably in harness -
ness ; and I had from the first enjoined
upon Wood to get him into as good
condition as possible. I now fixed a
certain hour at which Wood was to be
at a certain spot on one of the roads
skirting the park-where I had found
a crazy door in the plank fence-with
Constancy in the dog cart , and plenty
of wraps for Alice.
"And for heaven's sake , Wood , " I
concluded , "look to ills shoes. "
The next evening I said : "Alice I
must leave the house ; will you go with
me ? "
"Of course I will.Duncan. When ?
"The night after to-morrow , as soon
as everyone is in bed and the house
quiet. If you have anything you value
very much , take it ; but the lighter we
go the better : "
"I have nothing , Duncan. I will take
a little bag that will do for me. "
"But dress as warmly as you can. It
wiI be cold. "
"Oh yes ; I won't forget that. Good-
,
night. "
I had seen Mrs. Blakesley since she
herd told me that the young earl and
countess were expected in about a
month , else I might have learned one
fact which it was very important I
should have known-namely , that their
arrival had been hastened by eight or
ten days. The very morning of our intended -
tended departure. I was looking into
the court through a little round hole
I had cleared for observation in the
dust of one of the windows , believing
I had observed signs of unusual preparation -
aration on the part of the household ,
when a carriage drove up , followed by
two others , and Lord and Lady Hilton -
ton descended and entered , with an
attendance of some eight or ten.
There was a great bustle in the house
all day. Of course I felt uneasy , for if
anything should interfere with our
flight the presense of so many would
increase whatever difficulty might oc-
cur. I was also uneasy about the
treatment my Alice might receive from
the new-comers. Indeed , it might be
put out of her power to meet me at all.
It had been arranged between us that
she should not come to the haunted
chamber at the usual hour , but toward -
ward midnight.
I was there waiting for her. The
hour arrived ; the house seemed quiet ;
but she ( did not come. I began to grow
very uneasy. I waited half an hour
11101 0 , and then , unable to endure it
longer , crept to her door. I tried to
open it , but found it fast. At the same
time I heard a slight sob inside. I
put my lips to the key-hole , and called
"Alice. " She answered in a moment :
"They have locked me in. "
The key was gone. There was no
time to be lost. 1Vho could tell what
they might do tomorrow , if already
they were taking precautions against
her madness ? I would try the key of
a neighboring door , and if that would
not fit , I would burst the door open ,
and take the chance. As is was , he
key fitted the lock , and the door open-
ed. We locked it on the outside , restored -
ed the key , and in another moment
were in the haunted chamber. Alice
was dressed ready for the flight. To
me it was very pathetic to see her in
the shapes of years gent : by. She looked -
ed faded and ancient , notwithstanding
that this was the dress in which I had
seen her so often of 01d. IIer stream
lad been standing still , while miue
lad flowed o1. She was a portrait of
my own young Alice , a picture of her
own former self.
One or two lights glancing about be-
ow detained us for a while. We were
standing near the window , feeling now
'cry anxious to be clear o fthe house ;
Alice was holding me and leaning on
110 with the essence of trust ; when , all
vacs , she dropped ray arm , covered
ier face with her hands , and called
out : "The horse with the clanking
hoe ! " At the same moment the heavy
door which communicated with this
part of the house flew open with a
rash. A light gleamed into the room ,
and by it I saw that Lady Alice , who
r as standing close to me still , was
'azng , with flashing eyes , at the door.
She whispered hurriedly :
"I remember it all now , Duncan. My
train is all right. It is come again.
But they shall not part us this time.
You follow' me for once. "
As she spoke , I saw something glit-
er in her hand. She had caught up an
Id Malay creese that lay in a corner
and was now making for the door , at
which half a dozen domestics were by
is time gathered. They , too , saw the
litter , and made way. I followed close ,
eady to fell the first who offered to lay
ands o1 her. But she walked through
em umnenaced , and , once clear , sped
he a bird into the recesses of the old
ouse. One fellow started to follow. 1
ripped him up. I was collared by an-
ther. The same instant he lay by his
ompanion , and I followed Alice. She I
new the route well enough , and 1
vertook her in the great ball. We
card pursuing feet rattling down the
choing stair. To enter my room and
olt the door behind us , was a me-
lent's work ; and a few moments more
ook us into the alley of the kitchen 1
arden. With speedy , noiseless steps.I I
made our way to the park , and
cross it to the door of the fence , where
Vood was waiting for us , old Con-
tancy pausing the ground with im
atience for a good run.
He had had enough of it before J2
ours were over. t
Was I not well recompensed for my
eng years of depair ? The cold stars
ere sparkling overhead ; a wind blew
een against us-the wind of our own
lght. Constancy stepped out with a
ill ; and I urged him on , for he bore i
beloved and me into the future
fe. Close beside me she sat , wrap-
ed warm from the cold , rejoicing in
Sher deliverance , and now and then
looking up with tear-bright eyes into
my face. Once and again I felt her
sob , but I knew it was a sob of joy ,
and not of grief. The spell was broken
at last , and she was mine.
We rested no more than was absolutely -
lutely necessary ; and , in as short a
space as ever horse could perform the
journey , we reached the Scotch border ,
and before many hours had gone over
Alice was my wife.

TILE END.
Honest Wood joined us in the course
of a week of two , and has continued
in my service ever since. Nor was it
long before Mrs. Blakesley was likewise -
wise added to our houehold , for she had
been instantly dismissed from the
COUI1tCSS' service on the charge of complicity -
plicity in Lady Alice's abduction.
We lived for some month in a cottage -
tage on a hill side overlooking one of
the loveliets of the Scotch lakes. Here
I was once more tutor to my Alice. And
a quick scholar she was , as ever. Nor ,
I trust , was I slow in my part. Her
character become yet clearer to me
every day. I understood her better
and better.
She could endure marvelously ; but
without love and its joys she could not
live , in any real sense. In uncongenial
society , her whole mental faculty had
frozen ; when love came , her mental
world , like a garden in the spring
sunshine , blossomed and budded. When
she lost me , the present vanished , or
went by her like an ocean that has
no milestone ; she caring only for the
past , living in the past , and that reflection -
flection of it in the ( lim glass of her
hope , which prefigured the future.
Wre have never again heard the
clanking shoe. Indeed after we had
passed a few months in the absorption
of each other's society , we began to find
that we doubted a great deal of whist
seemed to have happened to us. It
was as if the gates of the unseen world
were closing against us , because we
had shut ourselves up in the world of
the present.
Having examined into Lady Alice's
affairs , I claimed the fortune which she
had inherited. Lord Iiilton , my former
pupil , at once acknowledged the justice -
tice of the claim , and was considerably
astonished to finch how much more
might have been demanded of him.
which had been spent over the allowance
lowance made from leer income for
her maintenance. But we had enough
without claiming that.
My wife purchased for me the possession -
session of my forefathers , and there we
live in peace and hope. To her I owe
the delight which I feel every day of
my life in looking upon the haunts of
lily childhood as still mine They help
me to keep young. And so does my
Alice's hair ; for although much gray ;
now mingles with mine , hers is as
( lark as ever. For her heart , I know
that cannot grow old ; and while the
heart is young , man may laugh old
Time in the face , and dare him to do
his worst.

what is now the New York Central
