CHAPTER V (Continued.)
The man and tho time and the
place had met and there waB no doubt
ing It. His words burned this assur
nnce Into tho hearts of all who heard
him, and when ho struck his Bword
hilt to cmpha8lzo them, they answered
with the same movement, unconscious
nnd simultaneous.
In somo remarkable way this tre
mendous national crisis had become
known in every corner of tho Innd.
And tho very vagueness and mystery
oi mo conviction Intensified Its im
portance, for generally tho informa
tion camo as tho wind blows, no nnn
knew whence.
At Swaffham and do Wick this fate
ful feeling was accravated hv boon
personal lntorests. To Mrs. Swaffham
and Jane the coming battlo might
mean widowhood and orphanage. To

of the family, root and branch, the
ioss to tno lonely earl and his daugh
ter of tho ono lovo on which Iholr
future could build any hope.
on tho third afternoon, there camo
rumors of a great Parliamentary vic
tory, rumors that Charles Stuart had
been slain In battlo, suppositions and
sumises innumerable and contradic
tory. Jano went as nulcklv na nnsHl.
ble to do Wick, for If Indeed thero
nati ueon a Royalist defeat, Stephen do
Wick might havo reached hnmn nmi
life was hardly to be borne, unless
somo certainty relieved tho tension
cutting like a tight thong tho heart
and brain.
Tho neglect nnd desolation of do
Wick Park bad In It something un
usual; It was that strange air of sor
row, now and unaccepted, which in
sists on recognition. It hurried Jane's
stops; she felt sure she was either
"Jane, Janel Why don't you
going to meet trouble or that trouble
was following after her. She entered
tho hall and saw a man In his stock
inged feet softly descending tho stairs.
Iie knew his name and his occupation
and her heart stood still with fear.
"Is that you, Jane Swaffham?" cried
Matilda, running down stairs. "Come
here, come here, come here!" and
seizing her by the arm, sho compelled
Jano to ascend at her side. Jane
mado no resistance to such impetu
ous, Imperative passion, and she was
hurried up the steps and along tho
corridor until Matilda suddenly
stopped and threw open the door of a
darkened room.
"Go In, Mistress Swaffham," sho
cried, "and look your last on one of
Cromwell's victims." And Jano shook
herself freo, and stood a moment re
garding the placid face of the dead
priest.
"Oh, God bo merciful!" said Jane,
nnd Matilda answered, "Yes, for men
know nothing of mercy. Come, there
Is more yet."
Then she opened tho door next to
tho death chamber, and Jane saw ly
ing on a great canopied bed the dying
earl. His lust breaths wero coming In
painful Bobs, but ho opened his eyes
and looked mournfully at Jane for a
few moments. Then tho physician
sitting by his side motioned authori
tatively to the two girls to leave the
room.
"Ho is dying. You see that. He
may live till morning no longer,"
said Matilda; "he Is only waiting to
seo Stephen, and Stephen will never
come."
"What can I do for you, dear? Oh,
what can I do?"
"I will have nothing from you, not
even pity. I never wish to seo your
face again. And how poor Stephen
loved you! And you you havo not a
tear for his fate. I thank God I am
not of your profession. I can weep for
tho death of those who loved me."
With these words Matilda turned
sobbing away, and Jane, slowly at
first and then hastily, took the road
to Swaffham. For sho remembered
that the news which had i cached do
Wick was probably at Swaffham. So
she mado all possible haste, and as
soon as she reached homo she was
aware of a change. Her mother camo
quickly towards hor. Hor look was
Hurried, but not unhappy, as she
cried, "Havo you the news, Jane?
'Tis the groatest victory that bath
ever been in England, Dr. Verity came
nn hour ago, bo tired bo could scarce
ly sit his horse. He has had a warm
drink and Bleeps, but ho says no vic
tory was ever like it."
"And my father and brothers? What
of them?"
"Your father is well; Tonbert and
Will have some slight sword cuts. We
must bo ready to go with Dr. Verity
to London on Tuesday morning. Your
father desires It. To-morrow, being
Sabbath, wo can do nothing towards
our Journey, but on Monday all must
bo finished."
Jano worked rapidly. Her little box
was soon packed, her room put in or
der, when thero was a sharp, Impa
tient knock at tho door. Before sho
could In any way answer it, Matilda
do Wick entered and throw herself on
her knees at Jane's side.
"You said you would help me," she
cried; "you said you would, with
heart and hands! Now, Jane, keep
your word!"
"What Is It, Matilda? What is it
you wish?"
"It is Stephen; it is his friend Hugh
Belward. They are searching do
Wick for them now. I havo brought
them to you. Jano, for God's sake
spjo them; not for my sake, not for
pity's sake, but for God's sake save
them! They aro now outside this
door. Jane, Jano! Why don't you let
them In? Oh, for God's dear sake!"
"How can I do what you ask me,
Matilda? Think of what you ask"
"I know; I ask life for two poor
souls ready to perish. Jane, there Is
no time to talk. Let them through
tho door."
"I will call mother," sho said; "let
them in until I bring her here." Then
sho opened ine door, and Matilda
brought tho wayworn, bloodstained,
let them In?"
fainting fugitives within the sanctu
ary. Mrs. Swaffham was not long in an
swering Matilda's petition. "Surely,
surely, my poor lads," sho said piti
fully, "I will find hiding for you."
"God Himself thank you, madamc,"
sobbed Matilda. "Father said you
would."
"Yes, dearie, nnd Will shall saddle
a horse and take you home."
"No, no, no! It would then bo
known I had come here In the dark.
No ono must know. I can find my
way and I must now go."
"Tell your father that they who
would hurt the young men must hurt
me first."
"It will be the greatest, the last
comfort ho can have in this world."
Then she kissed her brother, and with
a glance of farewell pity at his com
panion, went quickly and quietly
away.
"Go downstairs, Jane," said Mrs.
Swaffhnm, "and If Dr. Verity Is wait
ing, order supper to be served. I will
bestow our friends in the oak room,
on the west side of the house."
To this room she took thorn, and
then brought water and wino and
bread and meat, and some of her son's
clothing, showing them, also, that the
wide chimney had, been prepared for
such emergencies by having stout,
firm, iron stirrups placed right and
left at very short intervals. "By
these you can easily reach the roof,"
she said. She kissed them both and
poured out wine and made them
drink, and then left them to cat and
rest.
In tho parlor she found Dr. Verity
eating a beefsteak pudding and talk
ing to Jane, who sat with a white and
anxloiiB face trying to smile and an
swer him.
"Come and rest a little, Martha."
he said. "And what think you? Here
come a half-a-dozen riders awhile ago,
seeking young do Wick. They said
also that it wns thought Charles Stu
art might be with him, and they
would havo searched Swaffham high
and low If I had not been here. I
think wo will begin our Journey to
London on Monday morning, Martha."
"I cannot. If I had as many hands
as fingers, I could not. You may
keep watch and ward to-morrow and
Monday, and it may bo well to do so;
for, to tell tho truth, I trust neither
men nor maids In tho kitchen. For a
Parliament half-crown they would
hide the devil. When was this great
battlo of Worcester fought?"
"Last Wednesday, on tho third day
of this month."
"Mother, remember how sad wo
were all that day. You said to me,
'Jane, thero is death In tho air;' and
tho men could not work, and they
vowed the beasts trembled and wero
not to guide or to hold."
"The third of September!" said
Mrs. Swaffham, "that was Dunbar
day. A great victory was Dunbar!"
"Yes; and now there is peuce."
"Peaco comes too late for many a
family. Thero are the do Wicks."
"I am sorry for them, and I could bo
sorrier If they had suffered for tho
right Instead of the wrong. What will
tho young lady Matilda do after her
father's death?"
"Her aunt, Lady Jevory, has been
written for, moro than a week ago.
Sho may be at do Wick even now. I
think Matilda will make her homo
with tho Jovcrys."
"Then she goes to London. I know
their great houso near Drury Lane.
It has very fine gardens Indeed. And
now, Jane, dear, little Jane, listen to
me. You are going to tho great city,
to Whitehall palace, to Hampton
court, to tne splendor and state of a
great nation. You will be surround
ed by military pomp and civil glory
nnd social pride and vanity. Dear lit
tle girl, keep yourself unspotted from
tho world!"
"May God help me, sir."
"And let not tho tale of love be
gullo you. Go often to the assemb
ling of the saints and catch the morn
ing dew and celestial rain of their
prayers aud praise."
Jane smiled gratefully, and her eyes
wero dim with tears as she laid her
handB in Doctor Verity's to clasp her
promise. Yet when she reached her
room and sat quiet In Its solitude, no
ono will blame her because many
thoughts of lovo and hope blended
themselves with the piteous oncs'sho
sent to de Wick, and to the two weary
fugitives under Swaffham roof.
CHAPTER VI.
On the Tide Top.
The great day of triumph was over.
Cromwell had entered London at tho
head of his victorious army, and the
city was safe and Jubilant. Standing
at her mother's side, Jane had wit
nessed from a window In tho crowded
Strand the glorious pageant of Lib
erty. And In tho midst of this Joyful tur
bulence she had caught sight of her
father and brothers and lover; her
father's face sternly glad, like tho faco
of a man who had fought a good fight
to asMiied victory; his sons Imitating
his bearing, as well as youth could
copy age; and the young lord not far
from them, proud and radiant and
carrying aloft the colors of tho Com
monwealth. As yet they had not met, nor had
Cluny any certain knowlcdgo of tho
Swaffham's location. Mrs. Swaffham
had learned that Cluny Neville was
personally objectionable to her hus
band and sons, and, as she could not
see clearly what road to take, sho
very wisely stood still, waiting for
some light and guidance. And It
seemed unnecessary to trouble Jano's
heart until thero was a positive rea
son for doing so; yet her depression
and evident disappointment fretted
her mother.
"What Is the matter with you,
Jane?" she asked Irritably one morn
ing; "you look as If you had lost
everything in tho world instead of be
ing as your father thinks, right on tho
road to many a good day. I wouldn't
throw such a damp over things If I
were you."
"You seem to have forgotten Cluny,
mother."
"He seems to have forgotten us; he
might have called, I think."
"Does he know where wo are?"
"He could have found out. And,
Jane, It Is not maidenly to take any
young man so seriously as you tako
Lord Neville until your father and
brothers are satisfied."

No one knows what I endured. Often.
I was sick to tho stomach, and every

Strange Facts of Wild Animals.
Tho birth of a litter of lions at Ha
Blomero park, a prlvato menagerie in
England, leads ono of the English pa
pers to note a fact that has for long
puzzled biologists, and that is notor
ious among those who interest them
selves in the study of wild beasts in
captivity, this being that nearly all
the Hou, tiger and leopard cubs born
in that country have a cleft palate,
which prevents thorn from being
properly suckled, nnd usually leads to
their premature death. But, beyond
this, a more astonishing fact still
and one that also greatly puzzles bi
ologists Is that whicji determines
that of all the wild animals born in
England those born In Bristol are re
garded as the finest and as the most
likely to live. So well known is this
to professional showmen and menag
erlo keepers that "Bristol born" is a
recognized brand in the wild animal
trade.
Woman Abolitlonlst'3 Exploit.
Miss Sarah E. Sanborn, who died at
tho age of SO last week in Hampton
Falls, N. H., was once tho heroine of
an exciting abolitionist adventure.
Her brother, Franklin B. Sanborn, of
Concord, with whom sho was then Ilv
ing, was outspoken in his utterances
and work in suport of tho abolitionist
cause. An attempt was made to kid
nap him. Tho hack in which ho was
to bo carried away was left standing
at tho door. Miss Sanborn seized tho
whip and lashed the horses till they
ran away; then she helped her broth,
er to escape. For this exploit citizens
of Concord afterwnrd presented her
with a pair of pistols.
When it comes to helping the poor,
actions speak louder than words. '
FOOLED THE HOSPITAL.

Well on Pure Food.
Sometimes in a caso of disease re
sulting from tho uso of Improper food
tho symptoms are so complex that
medical science cannot find the seat of

hospital treatment falls to benefit. A
gentleman of Lee. Mass., says.: "On
April 1st. 1900, I was sent homo by
one of our Massachusetts hospitals,
saying nothing more could bo done for
me. I have been a great sufferer from
nervous diseases and rheumatism and
