About midway between the east ern and western extremes of the north i shore of No Man's Lund, a little sandy | spit juts out. forming, according to j Appieyard. "what you might call a j sort of cove, if you don't care what you say.” To the west of it lies the only good anchorage near the island— one that can be termed such solely when the winds blow from the south. Into the poor shelter of this cour tesy harbor, under the pilotage of Ap pieyard (who asserted that he found his way half by guess work and half by sense of smell) the Echo fought hei way and as her anchor bit into the bottom and her cable tautened brought up staggering, like a spent runner at the close of a long race.

In an other direction, it would profit them as little to seek the cheerless shelter of the life-saving station on Nasha ■.vena; it would require more than man-power to free the cruiser from the sticky clutches of the shoal, and their chances of obtaining a tow be fore the storm abated were positively nil. "You can tie to this." Anpleyard had summed up: "they'll stay put till morning. And then a while. That’ll give me time to 'tend to their cases properlike. Even should I fall down there, we've got at the worst reckon ing a clear eighteen hours. And if that's not long enough for us to frame up a suitable last act for this thrilling draymah of errrime and hooman hearts, we ain’t fit even to dope out a scenario for a moving-picture film; and I for one will make up my mind to shake the legit, and try to m*ke a dent in the two-a-day." ■— From whica pronouncement Coast drew what comfort he could. . . . The bunagiow occupied what was apparently the brow of the island's highest ridge, something like a quar ter of a mile to the south of the farm-house and near the southern shore. As they drew nearer Apule gate slowed down to a cautious walk. At a fair distance from the lighted window both paused, as if seekiog some final word; then, without speenh (it would have been necessary to shriek to make oneself beard in that exposed spot) Coast caught the little man's hand and gave it a long, friend ly pressure He turned and moved a few paces toward the house.

They stumbled up to and through . -is tufty street, a little wondering, a , liri> apprehensive, more than a little alert and inclined to seek the touch ; of each other's shoulders.

There remained, however, a hundred masked dangers growing out of Black stock's certain distrust and misgiv ings. with a far-fetched possibility that the m*n stranded on the shoals off Basque would find some means of es cape and communicate with Black stock by wireless from the mainland. It was not more than an improbable possibility, hut none the less it held its meed of danger, and they might . net forget it. though Appleyard had argued and contrived plausibly against mischance. to look. He turned a corner, moved i past another window, and came to a j door before which he stopped a long minute, not hesitant, but pulling him- j self together, realizing but on the ; whole not sorry that he now stood \ alone, had only himself to look to i whatever the emergency the next few hours might give rise to. On the oth er side of those panels were the only j two beings in the world who conld strike upon his heart-strings every j chord in the gamut of the emotions; j and he must be prepared to exper ience them all and show himself un moved. at least outwardly. . . . Lifting his hand, he knocked loudly, and without waiting turned the knob and entered. A tearing blast of wind accompanied him. for the door faced the east. He had a brief struggle with It before he got it closed and faced the light—his heart in his mouth, if the truth is to be tofH. To Coast's unspeakable relief he found Blackstock alone. Apparently the man had been sitting by the table. I his feet on a near-by stool; but when Coast discovered him he was standing in that dogged, forceful pose of strength and preparedness which seemed somehow peculiarly his: with his feet well apart, his heavy body in clining forward from his hips, his broad shoulders a trifle lifted, his round and heavy head thrusting for ward on its thick, strong neck. <TO BE CONTINUED.) Man of Fallen Fortunes He Wes Stirred to New Ambition by the Act of a Cigar Salesman. "Cigars of tbe brand I used to smoke." said tbe man of fallen for tunes. "are. like those of many others, made in various shapes and sixes, to be sold al various prices, and of my | favorite brand there was one partic , ular size and shape that especially . pleased ~r **Ocy and that I always | smoked Stogies I usually smoke now, , but occasionally, when I feel that I can spare tbe money. I go in and buy a few of those fine cigars. "For one of these occasional fond smokes I went in this morning and, looking down into tbe case. I named my brand and reaching into the case tbe salesman brought out a box. But * these were not of my size and shape; ! I indicated tbe ones I wanted, and the salesman brought out that box— cigars at six for a dollar, of which I | now took three. I noted casually the card on the box which the salesman had first brought out. and that card 1 confess gave me a little thrill of pleasure and then, what was better, a stir of ambition. "The cigars in that other box were three for a dollar, and had not the salesman brought them cut to me con fidently ns if 1 were that sort of a customer? He certainly had. and I must look it And if I looked it. why should 1 not be it? Why should t continue to be a stogie man? Why should I not retrieve my fallen for tunes and far surpass them—come to be not merely a six but a three for a dollar man?" Infectious Laughter. Some of our prominent scientist^ are so impressed with the germ peril that they go around looking prett) solemn all the time, on the theory that laughter is both contagious and infectious.

WOMAN A BAD LOSER Wall Street Brokers Draw the Sex Line. New York Consolidated Exchange Firm Likely to Be Disciplined by Board for Its Violation—Un written Rule Exists. -'Ic w York.—A Wall street brokerage firm has got itself into trouble and may be suspended by the Consolidated stock exchange because it recently opened a women's department, fitted up with a few rocking chairs, had a woman in a white sweater stationed at the ticker to read the quotations and allowed woman speculators to come i down and bring their young ones with them if they cared to—which they did. in some cases. This is a punishable offense in the street. Not the children, but their mothers are the ones object- ! ed to. There are no cries of Place aux dames! in the stock market zone, i The establishment with the nursery attachment to its women's department - is on New street, just a block away from the exchange of which the firm is a member. It had really only just begun to built* up the new branch of its business when the exchange heard of it and signaled the cal! to arms of the board of governors. This had the effect of clearing the women's room of all children and of all but two wo men. while the person in the white sweater who had been fingering many yards of ticker tape was supplanted by a man. You may search the rule book of the Consolidated from cover to cover for an article or a by-law forbidding women to come down and trade in stocks like the men. and to bring their youngsters along with them, as now and then a proud father has done on a half-holiday, but you will not find what you are looking for. The rule exists, none the less. It simply Isn't printed. The nearest thing to it In print is a rule prohibiting "acts detri mental to the exchange” on the part of its members, which, as one of the board of governors pointed out. might be made to cover any number of things. Among them is the catering to feminine speculators, he said. The fact that a sort of kindergarten an nex went with the women's depart ment had nothing to do with the case. Wall street half expects to see the proprietors of the New street rocking chair trading club and day nursery punished In some way—by suspension from the exchange, possibly. It is pretty certain that the club and the nursery will go out of existence. It will have to. Women who want to dabble In stocks are as unwelcome as a crook below the "dead line.” All this in spite of the fact that only a few weeks ago Mrs. Emmeline Pank hurst told Wall street any number of stories about women who bad gone in to business and made a success of it. "It's the experience of hundreds of stock brokers that the woman who comes down here to speculate Is a bad loser.” said one officer of the Con solidated recently. "Say what you please about this being the day of quality, but deep down in our hearts we feel that there is a difference. Stock gambling is a man's game. We don't want women breaking in.” This man was inclined to excuse the New street brokers on the ground that the firm had been a member of the exchange less than two years, and perhaps did not know better. If that were the case the alarms sounded by the board of governors when they heard of the women's department and its nursery annex had evidently taught : the young firm a lesson. A visitor i dropped in to see the feminine spec ulators in action with their young ones romping in the shadow of the Quotat;on board and the ticker basket. : but there was none of that to* be seen. "When a woman makes something on the market.” said one broker of thirty years' experience in the street, j "she takes the credit of it all to her self. It was she who did it. When she loses, it was her broker’s fault, i He deceived her. And a peculiar trait is that In losing she cannot quite clear ■ her mind of the suspicion that what she lost the broker gained.” BOY CONVERTS OLD FARMER Youth Demonstrates Benefits of Shal low Plowing of Corn Furrows. Manhattan, Kan.—It took a boy 14 years old only a few minutes to con vince a farmer three times his age that the old fashioned method of corn cultivation was wrong at Minersville. near here. The boy, William Linscott. had been taking the work of the exten sion department of the State Agricul tural college and was explaining shal low cultivation at a community meet ing of farmers. When he had finished a farmer arose and told that he always plowed his corn deep, and demanded to know why the shallow method was better. On the blackboard William drew a cross section between two rows of corn. He showed how the roots were interwoven and how deep plowing would injure them. His explanation was so clear that the farmer Immedi ately accepted the new method as bet ter than the old fashioned way. Even There. Lottie—Inhospitable, are they?

Ia.—Wheeling a town two miles overnight! This feat, accomplished by the resi dents of a thriving Iowa community, ar.d the evening events that preceded the municipal hegira were vividly re lated by a former resident of the town in Question. The incident occurred In the early "90s. when the railroads practically made over the maps of many portions of the west. “The one great handicap of Cal liope—for that is, or was. the name of the town, was the fact that it pos sessed no railway connection. “But one day a man. glorying in a generous girth and a many hued waistcoat, arrived In Calliope. To the village president be signified his de sire to meet the village board, and it was convened in session extraordin ary that very evening in the school house. To this staid and deliberative body the Imposing stranger outlined his plan for a newer and a better Cal liope. The Mississippi & Pacific Coast railway—that was not its name, but it will serve—he declared had de cided to extend its projected line through Calliope on its way to the shore of the Pacific. As evidence of the good faith of the company the representative exhibited a map where in Calliope was Indicated by a h'ack dot. whose dimension were exceeded by none—no. not even Chicago. The stranger went on to point out the ad vantages that would accrue to the town by the fulfillment of the plans of the railroad company. "The supposition, however, was not well founded, as he soon found. If the railroad wished to come to Cal- i ltope. well and good, declared the sturdy burghers, but Calliope would offer no bribes. At this the railroad representative lost some of his suav ity. &nd informed his audience that if Calliope did not choose to accept the generous compromise held out to it by the railroad, the company would make Calliope come to the road. "Then one day an ugly rumor was afloat. It was whispered from mouth to mouth that one of the councilmen who had been most emphatic in de nouncing the railroad agent’s proffer had bought a quarter section in the path of the projected railroad, and in company with the railroad advance agent was laying out the new town. Further investigation disclosed that the councilman had bought an even 160 acres of land—what was more, he had parceled it out in regulation city lots, had opened a cracker box office and was doing a flourishing real estate business. “The hegira continued. The the same suave gentleman visited the principal merchants of the town and made them an offer of a free site in the new city if they would move. It was too much. Immediately there was a scramble to secure the most desir able locations In the new city—which, by the way. he said was to be named Haw&rden—in his own honor. One by cue they set to work to move their structures—which were of frame con struction—two miles down the slope to Hawarden. “It was no use. And even the old timers saw It- Mournfully they. too. bade farewell to Calliope and betook tbems|lves and their abodes to Ha warcen, which grew to a city of 1,500 within a month. "And Calliope? Well, what was or.ce Calliope is now a flourishing cornfleld." THOUGHT FIRST CF PETS Children of Wilmington Man Save Cat. Guinea Pig and Doll When Firemen Arrive. Wilmington. Del.—Seeing firemen rushing into the home at S25 Market street and believing the house was on fire, the two little daughters of Vic tor H. Bacon, a cafe proprietor, for got all about their own comfort and thought only about their pets. One of the girls gathered up a cat in one arm and a guinea pig in the other and the second child snatched up her doll. They did not stop to get a hat or coat, but were making for the door without regard for near-zero weather when their mother stopped them. Some one passing in Market street had seen exhaust steam coming from a pipe on the roof. and. thinking it was smoke, summoned several Are companies. Mrs. Bacon, who was alone with her children at the time, knew nothing about the affair until the firemen came Into the house, drag ging linea of hose after them. Wedding Lasts Six Days __ ' -k_ Syrian Groom It Given a Bath and Shave by Men Guests at St. Paul Nuptials. St. Paul. Minn—Amid the glare of 400 candles and facing a gathering of 600 guests. Moses G. Toby, son of George Toby, a Syrian wholesale mer chant. married Victoria Zinnie of Butte. Mont., at his father's residence in this city. The ceremony itself was the closing feature of an elaborate Syrian wedding that has been in prog ress for six days. Fellow countrymen and wives came from all parts of the United States to attend what they de clare is the greatest Syrian wedding that bas taken place in this country in twenty years. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Nicola E. Yan ney. rector of St. George's Syrian Greek Orthodox church, Kearney, Neb., and was done in purely Syrian style. The pastor came here especial ly for the nuptials. In accordance with the Syrian cus tom the groom was given a bath by the men guests at the wedding. Each held a wash cloth and in passing by dipped it in the water and applied it to the bridegroom. The bridegroom was then taken to the parlor to be shaved. He was lathered by the guests and each stroked the razor over por tions of his face. Joy Kills Pardoned Convict. Philadelphia.—Angele Tomasco drop ped dead in the Eastern penitentiary when informed he had been granted a pardon and that he was free to leave the prison walls.
