CHAPTEII XXVII.—(Continued.)
"Dear Dick," murmured Dorothy.
“Yea, he is perfection. He did hate so
to go and leave me, but he had to go —
he had such a good appointment of
fered him, ho did not dare refuse it.
Still, he hated to go and leave me,
Just now especially. What he would
say If he knew about Barbara, I can’t
think. I don’t think I would tell him,
would you?”
"Not till all is over,” answered Es
ther. ”It would only worry him far
nothing. By-the-bye, what Is he like?”
"Oh,” and Dorothy looked round fey
Dick’s portrait. “Oh, hose ho Is," hold
ing It out to her cousin.
Esther Brand took It and lookc 1 at
It attentively for a long lime, sipped
her tea, and looked again and yet
again.
“Well,” said Dorothy, Impatiently.
“I like him,” said Esther, "he looks
good and true, and he Is a handsome
man, too—a fine, honcat-looking, man
ly man. Yes, I like him—you’re a
lucky little girl, Dorothy.”
"So I think,” answered Dorothy,
proudly, "and Dick is Just what, he
looks—honest as the day, and aa good
jus gold.”
Esther laughed. "Well, you are a
lucky little woman to have won such
a liU3band. I never met a man like
that, or I should have been tempted to
give up my liberty long ago. Do you
know, dearie, I always had a horrible
conviction that you would end by mar
rying David Stevenson, and 1 always
did dislike David Stevenson with all
my heart and soul.”
-- ## ttuatusicu i/uiuioy,
promptly.
Kor a moment she was templed to
leil Esther all about her meeting vrl!h
David, then a feeling that It would he
uearcely fair to him held her back, and
»he kept her own counsel about that
matter.
“Of course there is no knowing what
I might or might not have done If
dear Auntie had lived,” she said, wish
ing to explain everything as far as pos
sible and yet avoid saylug much about
David’s feelings for her, “and If I had
never seen Dick; hut then, you see, I
did meet Dick, and Dick lilted me, and
— and-’’
“And David Stevenson went to the
wall," Esther said, Mulshing the sen
tence for her, “and a very proper and
suitable place for him, too, my dear
child,” with a laugh.
Dorothy laughed, too. “Ah! you arc
all very hard on poor David,” she said
softly.
“Now, how shall we do about din
ner? Hadn’t we tetter wait a little
and see if this woman comes, and then
go Into town and dine somewhere?”
she said. “I can’t ofTcr to cook a din
ner for you. If I did. It would probably
kill you to eat It."
“Just as you like. Then, couldn’t we
call at St. Qeorgs’a and leave a note
to tell Barbara you have come?" Do
rothy asked. “It will te such a load off
her mind."
“To be sure," Eoiher answered; and
then they settled down to their chat
again, and Esther heard a great deal
more about Dick, and learned a great
many of Dorothy's hopes and wishes
about the baby that was to come be
f&ro long.
And presently there came acme one
to the door who tang gently and
knocked softly.
“I will go; sit still,” cried Esther.
She went to the door, where she
found a handsome, neatly dressed wo
man, about forty years old. "Mrs.
Harris?” she said Inquiringly.
“No.” said Esther, "! cm not Mrs.
Harris, tut this Is her house. Will you
conic in? I suppose Lord Aylmer sent
you?”
"Yes. madam." raid the stranser re
spectfully.
It struck Ksther ns a little odd that
she should use the term "madam." hut
she put the thought away from her al
most us soon us It had taken shape In
her mind. "Of course, she Is a mar
ried woman, and perhaps has never
beeu a servant at all," she said to her
self; then tail) aloud: "Well, tome
In and see Mrs. Hair s. I am cure she
will be ve y glad that you have come.
Hy-the-bye, what Is your name'1
"My name la llsrrls, tu>, madam,"
the stranger answered, with a depre
eating Ieoh, as If she had rather taken \
a liberty In having msirled a man of
the name ct Hauls.
"Pear me. how odd I Well, | sup

quietly.
"Uh, yea." Then llsther opened the
drawing room door and bade Amelia:

"Certainly not. dearest. Amelia will
qo and fetch him," Esther returned.
"I had better go at once, madam,"
said Amelia, quietly.
“Yes, say ‘Mrs. Harris la very ill'—
I that It is urgent."
‘‘Yes, madam,” answered Amelia.
She walked oft to the Victoria road
at a pret'y quick pace, thinking haul
as she went. "H'm; from what he told
me, he never spoke to her before to
day. Queer. 1 wonder if he knows
about this taby. Shall I wire him, or
jhall I keep the news as a little sur
prise for tomorrow? I ‘it keep it. The
sight of his lordship's face will be
worth something.”
She knocked at Dr. Eras, kiln's door
and ask*’i| to see him In exactly the
same quiet, relf-porseised way that she
had spokm to Miss Brand, and all the
time her thoughts were running on
this new fancy of hia lordalilp.
“A little s'ckly-'ooklng girl, little
better than a child,” she was thinking
as she followed the neat maid into a
waitlug-room. "Not, 1 dare say, that
shs’s looking her best Just now; but
still, what he cun fain y in her after
a woman like me—tut there-, Yes,
sir,” she said aloud, “Mrs. Harris has
been taken suddenly 111, and Miss
Brand wished me to come and fetch
you at once."
"Miss Brand?” said the doctor, In
quiringly. "Who Is she?”
"Mrs. Harris' cousin, sir.”
“Oh, yes, yes. I tee. I'll be round
In three minutes lu three minutes.”
"Very well, sir."
Amelia Harris went quickly away,
her thoughts still with the oid lord.
"Some women wouldn’t do the things
he asked of them the things he asks
(hey promised to they’d play him false
In ihe end and be Jealous, and all that.
Not me. though! Lord Aylmer can do
what he likes, and think what he likes,
and go where he likes; It’s all one to
me so long as I’m paid for my trouble.
My! he must te In earnest over th's
business. Five hundred for a month's
work—five hundred pounds!"
By that time she had reached Ihe
Mansions, and she went in, took off
her bonnet and cloak, and bustled
about as only a thoroughly good work
er can do. getting ready for the great
event which teemed Imminent, which
Indeed was Imminent, for by the time
morning light shone over London town
there were two more inmates of the
little flat In Palace Mansions—a stout
motherly nurse, who hushed upon her
ample besom a wee fragment of hu
manity, a very smu'l and soft pinkish
p.erson, who had grunted and squalled
already in quite an alarming fashion.

"It «lit h* a asset isltsl go tka g»u ,
tter.ian to know nil is ratlsftctortly

ris, in her smoothest voice.
"Oh, yes. iadee 1,” returned Mis#
Brand.
She went then to sii l.eside h»r ecu
sln'3 bed, to bid her follow the doc
tor's directions and beep perfectly
Quiet, as If poor little delicate Dorothy
would be likely to do anything else.
Then the Just told her that she had
sent off a wire to Dick, and that uj
soon as she had put things In trim for
lunch Amelia wa.s going to run down
to St. George's Hospital to carry ih*
great news to Barbara,
‘‘Oh, that is good! Barbara will te
eo anxious,” murmured Dorothy, In h°r
sweet voice. “And Dick, too, how
proud he will be! You’ll write at once,
Esther, to tell him everything, to tell
him how exactly like him the boy Is.
lie will be so pleased.”
"I expect ho would rather It were
like you, drarie," said Esther, smiling.
“Oh, no. But you mustn't call my
bey ’It,’ Either,” Dorothy declared,
“and—and you’ll be sure to tell him
that Lord Aylrn“r has been kindness
Itself lo me, won't you?”
"But, my dear, 1 thought we were
not to tell bint about Barbara’s acci
dent?” Esther exclaimed.
“No- true,” and Dorothy for a few
minutes lay thinking deeply. Then
she turned hir eyes back again lo her
cousin’s face. "Oh, 1 think you may
as well tell him; you r*e, you are
here, aril the baby Is here, too. Dh k
i will know that 1 am in good hand*.
1 think I would ratter that you told
him, after all.”
“My dear child, take my advice—
don't mention the accident or Eord
Aylmer at all,” Esther urged. "He
will worry, and a worrying man Is an
awful nuisance.”
‘T didn’t like deceiving Dick," Do
rothy protested.
ucni , iiu, uui uiiq wuuiu uai'ii;
| call that deceit,” Esther answered.
"Anyway, will you leave It to me? I
will write on Wednesday morning, and
bring you the letter to read.”
“Very well, Esther,” said Dorothy.
"That is better. Now, If I go away
you will rest a littlo, and I have va
rious odds and ends to do,” said Es
ther, tenderly.
One of her various "odds und ends’
was to send Amelia off to St. tlcorgc's
to Inform Barbara that the long ex
pected event had happened, and that
a fine bouncing boy, the very Image of
Dick—of his father, she said—was now
flourishing at Palace Mansions. And
if the truth be told, Amelia llarr.i
went ofT on this errand without any
great feeling of satisfaction, for just
at that moment she particularly wish
ed to remain in the bouse, having s
great desire to be the person to im
part the news to Ixtrd Aylmer, whan
he should care to inquire for Mrs. Har
ris’ welfare.
Of course, she argued with her
thoughts as she went up the road, II
was Just possible that he might wall
until after lunch time; but then, on
the other hand, there was not very
much going on at this time of year to
occupy his lordship, and she was afraid
his impatient soul would brlDg him to
look after his prey as early as be con
veniently could.
And Amelia Harris was perfectly
right, for Just as she was passing the
Kingsbridge Barracks on her way city
wards, Lord Aylmer’s carriage stopped
at the door of Palace Mansions. Esther
saw It draw up.
"Nurse," she said, going sofily Into
the little dressing-room where the
nurse sat crooning over the baby by
the fire, “will you answer the door for
me? Amelia has gone. It Is Lord Ayl

left the I nitcd States, but tho condi
tion of the mea now, according to tho
physicians and eomiunnding officers, is
such that, tlio entire corps should re
turn north tit once. General Miles ha.
cabled that he does not want and will
not need a single man among them,
anti ho believes that after their hard
campaign they should ho given a rest
of at least two or three weeks.
The doctors say tho men should bo
sent Into camp in the mountains of
North Carolina or Western Maine for
a month. Washington agree, to this
and will do everything po.siblo, the
cable dispatch to-day says, to carry
the army away from here. Rut there
i.» a lack of transports. In ad llttoa to
the I’orto Rico troops, which will re
quire forty steamers for their convey
ance, the authorities here aro still
counting upon having to convey the
22,000 Spanish prisoners to Cadiz. It
appears from here that our government
cannot get sufficient vessels and this
fact holds tho. Fifth corps hero, doing
nothing. Tho men r.re anxious to get
away.
The cavalrv division has Ix-nri sent
Into the mountains at its own request
to see if it cannot get into shape to join
General Miles. If no fever develops,
the men may go to Porto Uieo.
The Twenty-fourth infantry is act
ing as guards und nurses at the hos
pital at Juragua. More nurses are
needed. The colored troops will prole
ably remain here to attend ttie sick
anil hold Santiago.
General Shatter has cabled to Wash
ington that it is imperatively neces
sary that lie should have more im
mune* sent to him quickly, and the
probability is that a corps will leavo
within the next ten days.
All our men are now camped upon
the lighting line, where they havu
been for two weeks, except General
Wheeler's men, who have been sent
1 nto the hills.
General Wheeler is still ill, but ho
resists the pleas of his friends to re
turn to the United States.
Warhixotox, July 2j — Secretary
Alger said to-day that the troops
which were in the engagements at
Santiago won'd not be sent to Porto
lllro. They will remain in Cuba until
yellow fever lias been entirely stamped
out. General Miles did Dot think it
advisable to take any troops to Porto
Ilieo that were liable to have con
tracted fever, and in this conclusion
the department concurred.
