Mrs. Dene was standing near the rail way earriane door, chattinit (tayly to the three gentlemen who were with her, when at the further end of the station she saw the quartermaster coming toward them with his daughter. "(Jo and meet her, (Jerald," she said to her htiHhand, and waited impatiently un til they should r ime up. The weather was wild and stormy, and Jane had wrapped her gray alpaca dust clonk eloKely round her. and drawn the hood over her head, her lovely fare look ing the lovelier with hurtling airninst the wind, her eyes, lirighteutsl hy excitement, shone like two stars; and Mrs. Iiene, glancing furtively from one man to the other, saw how fnir they thought her. Khe stepped forward and kissed her, not ao much in demonstration of her of feetion for Mrs. Ilene was not one to dis play her feelings as to bIiow she consid ered her a friend on an equal footing with herself. Then followed the introductions, anC" Jane's eyes rested Uton MHjor Larrot with something like awe, caused partly by the knowledge that he was hearing now an honorary title, and would one day he a jicer of the realm on which nat urally alio from circumstances laid an exaggerated stress and partly from a romantic admiration of his dark Hyronic countenance, which might have heeri good looking had it not Iksti ho grim and gloomy. She only withdrew her gaze to meet Valentine tlraeme's laughing hlue eyes, and to put her small gray-gloved fingers into his outstretched hand. "You have met before'?"' observed ("np tnln Ilene, who hud made them formally known to each other. "We are old friends," said the young man, with easy boyish cordiality. "That Is to say, wc are already sufficiently in tirnnte to have had a quarrel, and I am afraid to tell Mrs. Dene on what sub ject." "Was I concerned?" asked the lady, smiling. "It was only a question of color," an swered Jane. "I told Mr. Graeme I thought your drawing-room so prettyrand he said -out of pure kindness, you know." she assured her listeners gravely "that he liked our blue-nnd-white striped chintzes better " "Better than mine of mignonette green'" finished Mrs. Dene, In pretended wrath. "It is my Ignorance, perhaps," he plead ed, humbly. "Every one is not born es thetic." "For which the saints be prnised!" ex claimed the Hon. Harry Larron. Then meeting her glance of hurt surprise, hi added quickly, with an air of elaborate gallantry, "I mean no reflection on the mignonette-green curtains, than which there is nothing I admire more. If every one possessed the exquisite taste of Mrs. Dene, there would be no need of a pretty affectation becoming a vulgar fashion." "We had better get Into the canlage," said Captain Dene, curtly. It annoyed him always to see Major Larron In converse with his wife, for he could never for a moment forget the In sult she had suffered nt his hands, mid he wondered suspiciously why she had asked him to Join their party. Was It only on Jane Knox's account? He had never been admitted to friendly Inter course since their marriage. He bad dined once with them when he was one of twenty guests, and he had called twice the UHiml exigencies of society, no more. Hut Mrs. Dene noticed nothing, and Jumped lightly into the carriage in obedi ence to her husband's suggestion, as June turned to meet her father, who was com ing toward them after seeing to her lug gage. "How do you do, Mrs. Dene? It Is very kind of you to be troubled with my daugh ter." he said, with an awkward attempt at ease. Then addressing Jane: "Here is your ticket; take care of yourself, my girl." "I will take care of her," Mr. Knox," said Mrs. Dene, graciously. "We will take care of her." supple mented Val tiraeme, with a smile. "(!ood by, Jenny." "(iood-by. father." And with a hand pressure only they parted, the quarter-master not being cer tain whether a warmer farewell was com patible with good manners, and unwilling to compromise his daughter she, too, a little ashamed and self-conscious. But as the train left the station she yielded to the Impulse I fiat moved her, and leaning out of the window, kissed her hand to him -once, twice, thrice. CHAPTER IX. Colonel Prinsep hud never felt ao dull as during the week succeeding his prom ise to Mrs. Dene. In a moment of Impatience he resolved to tuke ten days' leave to get out of the place for a while, and it was only what might have been expected that he should bend his steps tounrd t 'swnpure. which was Just uuw the centei of iiitnn iidii, and to which station several of his olliceia had already gone. The train arrived nlxiiif seven o'clock, and he drove at once to the hotel where he Intended to put tip. As he iillghlcd from the gharrie some one came hastily down the steps who, on closer inspection, turned out to be the Hon. Harry I.armu. "Why, Colonel, 1 did not know you Id tended coming here!" he ejaculated, In some surprise. "Nor did I. It was an Impulse moved me." "And a very good impulse, too, sir," aid his sdjulant, Valentine Graeme, coining up to them with his long, swing ing strides. "We are lisving- an awfully giHid time here." "I'm afraid you won't get a room. The hotel was full when wo arrived," sld Msjor Lsrron, "Did you nrlni a tentT" a. . .4 7 nt rH r r? ry h? The Colonel shook his head. "I'll lend you mine, air. I dare say some one will put ma up," said the ad jutant. "You had better come in with me, I suppose," observed Major Larron, some what ungraciously, not caring to have his privacy disturbed, yet unwilling to appear as inhospitable as be felt. "Thanks, I shall be very glad if Dene has not a spare tent. 1 fancy I heard hira say he had," answered Valentine, as unwilling to avail himself of the invita tion as his senior oflieer hao been to ren der It. "Vou know," he explained to the Colonel, "we are campiig with the Denes." "Is Mrs. Dene here?" "Oh, yes! I wonder you had not heard. Alijsire is so desperately fond of gossip. She anil " He was about to mention Jane's name, when Major Ijirron, whose ill-humor bad increased hy the adjutant's evident re luctance to share his teut, pulled out his watch. It was nearly twelve o'clock when Col onel Prinsep entered the mess-room of the th Foot. He had dined rather late, having ling ered over his letter-writ ler longer than he had intended, and then bad stayed some time smoking and thinking not of .lane. The provocation removed, she haunted his thoughts no more, and therefore he was the more surprlxed when the first familiar face that met his view was thut of the quartermaster's daughter. And yet, often as he had pictured it to himself, it scarcely seemed familinr now. The face that had drooped and flushed be neath his gaze that afternoon when he saw it last, full of shy warmth and child like worship, was radiant now, and bright with snucy triumph. If he had thought her sweet and pretty then In her blue cot ton gown, how doubly fair he admitted her to he now, In her soft draperies of gauzy white; with straw-colored ribbons fluttering here and there, and a knot of pale tea-roses at her breast. Then there had been something of pity and conde censlon In the admiration with which he regarded her; now they met as equals. At that moment she caught sight of him. A glad light leaped into her eyes, but she did not flush or falter in her speech, as she would hare done a week before. She knew her power now, and felt a natural womanly pleasure that he should see her thus, the center of an ad miring group, the acknowledged beauty of the hall. "Vou have become quite a woman of the world since I saw you last," he snid, his voice unconsciously falling Into that caressing undertone that so many wo men have found dangerously sweet. "What a long time it seems!" sighed Jane. Then putting his arm about her waist, he drew her In among the dancers Car ing little for dancing for dancing's sake, the Colonel was a man who did most things well, while Jane, always light and graceful in her movements, had profited by practice. They did not stop till the last Teutonic strain had died away. CHAPTER X. "I suppose you can see what Is going on, sir?" said the Adjutant to his Colonel on the following evening, as both were dressing for dinner In the tent, which they were sharing still. "I don't know that I can, until yon tell me what it Is." "Why, this infatuation of Major I.nr ron's for Miss Knox. Every one is talk ing alsnit it. You know what a sulky brute he generally is; but he seems trans formed when he is in her presence. I would not have believed he could have made himself so agreeable as he has done these last few days to her." "I suppose it would be a good match," said the Colonel, slowly. "If I had a sister," exclaimed Val Graeme, hotly, as, stooping to the looking-glass, he struggled with his white tie, "I'd sooner see her In her grave than married to Major Larron!" "Gently, gently, Graeme," rebuked the Colonel. "You can have no grounds for such sweeping condemnation." "I suppose I really have not: but then, sir, yon don't know him as we do. He is so cold, so satirical. 1 can Imagine him killing his wife hy Inches not with blows, but with chilly words and neg lect. He is gloomy, too!" "If he is all your fancy has painted him, there is not much chance of his suit pros pering, 1 should say." "But that's Just It, Colonel. He Is quite different when with her. How can she guess that he has only donned these pleasant qualities for the time being?" "Yon are making him out s perfect monster.'" "So he Is," answered the Impulsive Ad jutant. "Remember how he behaved to Mrs. Dene! Is not that enough to make us nil dislike him?" How often an incident or a word spoken hy another unawares seems to come In answer to your own thoughts! It was so now, and the Colonel's sallow face flushed at the coincidence as he bowed over the girl's outstretched hand, later In the even- ; ing. ' She was looking very fair that night, in n simple, high black gown, with deep while luce falling round her throat, and a hunch of white roses In her belt. Stephen Prinsep, gazing down upon her sunny, milled hair, grew confused at his . own thoughts, and for a moment distrait. When he recovered himself, and was about to speak, the opportunity was gone; Major Larron had already challenged her attention, and was talking earnestly In a low voice, Nothing that Jane could do should make him relinquish his purposeonly her mar riage with another should make him lose hope; and ho had no rival yet. That she cared nothing for Valentine Graeme he was certain, nor was he sure that the Adjutant wss serious in his attentions. He was notoriously a flirt, not from Inten tion, but because nature had mndn him fickle as well as impressionable. Meanwhile, the dinner having ended, Jane, unconscious of the Interest she had excited, followed Mrs. Dene out Into the Q)ell. It Hll I h,i-t i ., ,:h flu niooD, though the sky w as . i '.tt wilb stun. Coining out of the shaiuiaua, where it had been brilliantly lighted up, it seemed darker than it really was. "Let us have a camp-tire," suggested Mrs. Dene to her husband, who had fol lowed. "You will find it very hot and stifling." "It will be more cheerful." she per sisted. He shrugged his shoulders, but gave the order, and a few moments later a bright log-fire was burning But the result proved Captain Dene to be right. The warm wind that was blow ing became unbearable now that it was charged with the heat of the huge tire and volumes of blinding smoke as well as dust. The deputy commissioner and Colonel Grey,, with Captain Deue, walked away from It at once, but Mrs. Dene, for con sistency's sake, tried to put up with it a little longer, and the rest were eager to support her. "Ladies are very seldom wrong," be gan Major Larron, hesitatingly. "But one of them has Nsiled her pres tige," laughed Mrs. Dene "Nevermind, the exception proves the rule." "You ought not to stand there, the heat is unbearable," went on Hon. Barry, go ing over to .lane's side. Colonel Prinsep was standing near her, and. without meaning it, she looked up questiouingly into his face. "Yes, it is too hot; let us go into the cool," he said, answering the implied in quiry by moving n few steps further off. She accompanied him, and presently at his suggestion both turned and went to gether out of sight. Val Graeme, who had also meant to join her, looked taken aback for a mo ment, but recovered himself directly, thinking he knew the reason of the Col onel's interference. It was most proba bly on account of what he hnd himself said while dressing in the tent. Reas sured, he walked over to where the other men were seated smoking But Major Larron became white with rage. He made a movement to follow them, then changed his mind, and com ing to a sense of what was expected from him, turned back and stood by Mrs. Dene's side. "I am unfortunate," he observed, with an uncomfortable laugh. "It was not her fault," she answered, gently. "No, I dare say not; but, Mrs. Dene, do you think that I have any chance'" He leaned toward her, his dark-brown eyes scanning her face anxiously to see If he could read his fate, but sh shook her lipnd gravely "I am the Inst person you should ask. Even if I knew her feelings, could I be tray her trust '!" "I forgot You are right. Only, if ever it should be in your power, may I count upon your help?" Had he been ple ading for her own love Instead of merely for the aid of her in finence with another woman, he could not have been more earnest. They could see no one; but all that had passed between them had been of vivid clearness to the rest. The scene, framed in the flickering fire-light, seemed burned into Gerald Dene's brain as he gazed, un conscious of everything save that the barrier which past events had erected be tween his wife and the man to whom she was once engaged to be married seemed to be broken down at last. (To be continued.) The Drunkard's nog. The New York Times reports that Policeman Lognn, of thutc lty, 8,i w a man lying Intoxicated on the puvciuent, and went toward him, meaning to wake him. As he drew near, however, he saw a brlndlp bulldog beside the sleep er, and us the polieemtiti leaned forwaid to shake the man, the dog growled and showed his teeth. Logan stepped back for fear of being bitten. Tho drunk ard's name was Collins. "Hey, there!" said Logan. Collins woke up. "Tell your dog to let me arrest you." Collins struggled to his feet, and said to the dog: "Come on, Bully, we're 'rested." The dog "heeled" obediently, and tbs policeman took them to the Thirtieth Street Stntlon-house. There was no reason why the pup should be locked up, but it was plain that he intended to stick to his drunken master as long as he could, and he w:ns allowed to occupy the cell In which Collins spent the night. The dog accompanied Collins wheu Logan took him down to Jefferson Mar ket I'ulice Court, and was tdose to hlni when Justice Hogau asked: "Well, sir, what have you to say for yourself?" "Talk to him. Bully." whispered Col lins to the pup; and the pup Jumped up on the bridge, where the Justice could see him, sat up, held tip his fore paws, nnd whined. Everybody in court was watching him. "Are we sorry?" Collins asked him. The pup whined loudly and more for lornly than before. He looked as If he would cry In another minute. "Well, young man," said the Justice, "I'll let you go this time on account of your dog. I don't think yon deserve such faithfulness as he has shown. If I were a dog and had a drunken master, I would leave him. But I guess dogs are more faithful than men." "Thank the Judge, Bully," said Col lins. The dog stood up on his hind legs, gave one short, Joyous yelp, and bound ed out of the court-room beside his master. Very Hard to l'lease.
