Continued. "Did you need tho extra bucket?" I asks. "Why, no, I bollovu not," says Hart ley. "You sco I dug for ti whllo and then I wont to look for bettor places, and James did tho digging. Wo found holes ouotrh, but they didn't seem to be the rln'it kind. Wonnn, did you call those things? Sea serpents, you meant, 1 giioss. I uovor aaw such ct ('attires. And thoro wuh one place where thoro wero millions of holes, but chnckful of crabs." "Urn-bum," says 1. "Fiddlers. You must have gone plumb up Into tho march bank to run into them." "They was 'orrid things," Hays Lord .lames, rolling his eyes. "And they 'ad claws and swarmed over my feet. I give you my word I was that " "That'll do, .lames," says Hartley. "Well, I was successful nt lust, skip per. Struck u placo where clams woro actually In layers just under the sand. Wo turned 'em over with the hoes llko winking. I pointed 'em out and James picked 'cm up. .lust look at thoso buckets, will you?" I looked ut 'em. Then- was threo bucketa chock, frlmmlug full. "(lend land of love!" auya I. "Them ain't clams they're qua hangs." "Thero'rn clams In Now York," ho says. "Muyho so," says I. "We call 'em quahaugs here. And there's no qua haugs lu this part of the bay unless they've beon bedded. Was thoro any marks mound 'em?" "There was a lot of sticks stuck up around," ho says, "but we knocked thoso out of the way." "You did?" says I. "Did you leave any of tho what you call clams?" "You bet wo didn't," saya ho. "Wo took tho last one. Hnd too much trouble finding 'cm to leavo any." "Humph!" says I. "That's nlco. You've cleaned out somebody's prlvnto quahaug bed. Them quuhaugs was all brought ovor by somebody and planted where you found 'em. The sticks was to ninik tho placo." "You don't mean it?" he says. "Yes, I do," says 1. "I cal'lato we'll bear from them qunhaugs aforo long." And sure enough we did, but that comes later. On tho way up to'the house I turns to his lordship, who was limping bare foot over the bcachgrass stubbles, and says I: "Ain't clamming fun?" I says. "My word!" says he, but ttexpiosstfd his feelings nil right. All the afternoon tho clam hunters kept getting lamer nnd lamer and sorer and sorer. Their suu-buiut legs nnd arms was hurting 'cm scumlalous. Hartley Hopped Into a piazza chair and stayed there, and Lord James crept around with his limbs spread out llko windmill sails. And ovory tlmo ho'd bump into a chair or anything you could hear him whoop to glory. Van Ihunt got homo about suppor tlmo. Scuddor rowed him ovor. I had tho quahaug chowder nmdo and ho ate enough for all hands. Hnrtloy wab feeling too used up to relish It much, and his lordship didn't cat nothing. I let htm off on tho dish washing and he went off to tho tall end of tho voranda and went to sleep In a chair. Aftor suppor Van told about his trip to Eastwich. Agnes and the Tnlford girl was well, ho suld, and they and their Frosh Air tribe was comlug to the island next day for a picnic. "By tho way, skipper," says Van; "Scudder says ho brought somo pros onts for us Inst night after wo went to bed. Where are they?" Thunderation! I'd forgot all about them "presents." I'd folt llko an un dertuker when 1 laid 'em away In thaCT toll you. ' drawor, anld now I felt llko a gravo robber as I dug 'em up ngnlti. I spread 'cm out on tlio tnble, coffin plates in tho middle and wreath on ono end nnd "What la Home Without a Mother" on t'other. You'd ought to havo heard them Heavenlies laugh) Nate's prosonts certainly mado a hit. Van ho Just laid back and roared. l.rllr4.i (Jocplx C.

"Pack 'em uway again, Sol," saya Hartley. "Now that the relatives havo had an opportunity to view tho ro mains, the fiiumal may go on. limy 'em quick." "Hury em?" aayB Vnn. "Not much. They're too dreamily beautiful. Mar tin, I'm surprised at you. Whnt Is home without a family vault, any way. And yet Hold on!" he says, holding up his hand. "1 have an Idea. Wu'll give them to Jamea." "To James?" says me and Martin together. "Of course, to James. James Is fu nereal and solemn and dlgniilcd. They ought to nppeal to his taste. They're light In 1i!h line. We will decorate James room with 'em. What Is it they were warranted to do, skipper, when 'strung up around?' Oh, yes! to bo sine. 'Take away the bare look.' James' room 1b baie, now that 1 think of It. Come and join the Memorial Day paiade, Martin." He was out lu the kitchen getting the hammer and nails and string. Go ing to decorate the valet's bedroom right off. Hartley laughed and ald: "Oh, let the poor devil ulone, Van. I Give You Warning He's liud troubles enough for one day." But you couldn't stop that Van Brunt critter when hu got staited. Ho mnkes mo load the presents in my arms and takes the lamp nnd leads tho way upstairs. And then ho beta to work and hangs them presents round Lord James' room. He put the cotlln plates over the wushstand at tho foot of the bed, and tho wreath over the head, ami hung tho picture of Marcel Ins over tho looking-glass and tho shell work by tho closet door. "Now," says ho, "for tho motto tho crowning touch. Where? Where?" Finally ho hung It on top of tho bureau. "Perhaps," says ho, "Its inlluenco may make James more motherly; who knows?" Then we went downstnlrB and ho mndo mo promise to say nothing. Then ho was for waking IiIb lordship up nnd ordering him to bed right then, but his chum wouldn't hear of it. Martin said lot tho poor fellow hnvo his hnp out. Ho knew how he felt. So Van glvo In after nwhilo. Pretty soon Hartley got tired of waiting and said he wns going to turn in; ho was played out, he said. Van wnnted to wait longer, but he didn't. Ho went to bed, too. At half-past ten or so my round of chores was done nnd I sung out to Lord James to wako up and conio In becnuso I wantod to lock up. But ho wouldn't. "Lot mo alone," ho says, pleading. "I'm 'nppy for the first time In 'ours. I'll lock up, myseir, by nnd by," ho saya. So 1 loft him out on tho piazza nnd went aloft and turned It. And it didn't tnkn mm Inni: to cot tn sleet). I What woko me up was a howl llko an engyno tooting. I bounced out of bed llko I had springs under mi, In stead of corncobs and ropes. Thon comos another screech. Then a Bmashlly bang smash! Then moro yells, and feet going down tho hall and falling downstairs.

They was licsscd light and gauzy, same an me, nit Van had a revolver In his hand tnd Hartley was swinging a chair by ho back. "What on eaith?" says Van. "It's in the dining loom, whatever It Is," saya I. I grabbed up something to use for a club It turned out Inter to be the lit tlest Joint of Hartley's ilsh pole and tip-toed downstairs to the dining room door. And that door was locked fast. CHAPTER IX. The "Freoh-AIrers." First I tried that door, then Hurtley tried It, and then Van; eacli of us Just as soft and quiet us possible. Then wo listened. Not n sound. Then Vnn catches mo by the arm and begins to pull me nnd Martin back along the hall. When wo got to tho end, by the parlor door, he whispers, low and cautious: "Wo must break the door down. It's locked on tho inside. Better turn tho lamp down, too. A light gives tho othor man nil the advantage If it comes to shooting. Now ready, when I nay tho word. All rush together. One two" "Walt a minute," whispers Hartley he was always cool-headed. "Whero'a James?" "James?" repeats Vnn. "What? James?" "James?" says I. And then I begun to get my senses back. Wake n feller up out of u sound sleep tho way we was nnd it takes a fow minutes for him to get on earth again. "James!" says I. "I'll be" "Idiot!" says Van, speaking about himself, I judge. Then ho walks down the hall and gives thnt door a kick. "Jnmes," he sings out. "Is that you? Open this door." For n second or two there wa'n't a sound. Then n volco says, weak and chattery: "O-o-h, my soul!" "What's tho matter with him?" says Van. "Is he hurt? Whore's tho key, Now, I'm Going 'Ome." Bklppor? inside, of course. whore's the keyhole?" Then 1 romembered. "There ain't uny keyhole." I says. "Thoro's no lock on tho door." "Thon what? Como ou, Martin." He set his shoulder to the door and commenced to shove. Me and Hart ley helped, and the door begun to open. It opened slow, becnuso tho din ing table and two or threo chairs and the chest of drawers was braced against It. We got In finally. "Bring tho lamp," says Hartley. I dono it. The room was empty. "James!" hollers Van. "JameB!" The closet door opens Just a crack. Then it swung wldo and his lordship, half dressed nnd whlto as an old clam shell, staggers Into tho room. "Oil!" says ho. "Oh. Mr. Van Brunt, sir!" Ho was shaking like n palsy. "What alls you, man?" says Hartley. "Speak up." The valet rollB his eyes around to me. "I seen It," he suyB. "I seen It plain. If- 'ini!" "Him? Who?" says I. "Tho ghost. Tho old covo as ownod thiB 'ouse. 'K wnB up in my room n-waltlng Tor me." "What aro you talking about?" asks Van, Impatient. 1 begun to see light, but tho Heavenlies didn't not yet. '"IS was up in my room, air," said Lord James, wild llko. "I 'ad mo coat ami waistcoat off, sir, and then I goes ovor to tho mirror intending to seo it me face looked as 'ot as it folt. And I lights my lamp and there 'o was a glaring nt me. 'B 'ad Mb 'end through tho mirror, sir. And thoro was cofllns around, nnd wreaths. It's a warning to me, sir. I'm n dend man." And then wo began to laugh, "Tho presents!" saya Van, between roarB. "Scuddor's heirlooms. Ho! ho!" Ills lordship stared at us llko ho thought wo wub crazy. I moro than half pitied him, Martin did too, I guesB, tor ho says; N.U1W nut but "it's all right, James. Just oim of Mr. Vnn Brunt's Jokes. You see " "But 1 saw 'lm, sir. 'K was thore, nnd tbcro was wreaths and cofllns 'ung about, and " "It's nil right," says I. "Here! come along and I'll show you." But not tint! step would he stir. A derrick wouldn't have lifted him up them stairs. So I quit trying and went uloft and fetched down tho crayon enlargement nnd the wreath. Then I set out to explain. "Why, you Imbecile!" says Van. "Whero's your taste for art? Wo wero beautifying your room. Taking off the bate look, as per Scudder." James' color begun to como back. And when It como it come thick. Ho reddened up so you could sec It even through thoBun-burn. "Mr. Van' Brunt," he says, getting madder every minute, "I glvo you no tice. I leave to-morrow morning." "Don't be an idiot" bcglne Van, but his lordship cut him short. "I lenvu to-morrow morning," ho shouts. "Ain't it enough to bring mo to tills Gawd-forsaken 'olo and work me 'ulf to death nnd blister mo from 'end to foot, without this? I glvo you warning now. I'm going 'omo. And you be glad I ain't 'aving the law on you for this outrage. Ha poor servants 'ns rights, and " There was more, plenty more. Wo couldn't shut him up. And tho Heav enlies' explanations didn't count either. He wns dead aet on leaving in tho morning. Flnnlly, we glvo it up and went back to bed. Lord Jamea said ho was going to stay in tho kitchen all night. Nothing would hlro him to sleep In Marcellus' receiving tomb again. "Humph!" says Hartley, as tho Twins went upstairs, "it looks to me as it your Joke had lost us tho best valet you ever had, Vnn." Van cussed under his brenth. "Ho shan't leave," he said. "I must keep him somehow. He's invaluable In tho city, and we may go back thero some time. Not for months, though, of course," he adds. But In tho morning James was worse set than over. He wouldn't help with breakfast nor nothing; went aloft at daylight and begun to pack his trunk. He wub going to leave, that's all there was about it. The Twins was pretty blue during breakfast. Van about losing his lord ship nnd Hnrtloy on account of sun burn, I cal'Iate. 'Twas another ele gant day nnd there waa wind enough to keep the flics nnd mosquitoes uway from the house. If you got in the lee anywheres, though, they was laying for you In droves. They didn't bother me much, 'count of my hido being tough and leathery and my flavor too salt maybe; but they was fattonlng up fast on the Heavenlies and James. About ten o'clock Scudder shows up with tho first dory load of Fresh Air era from the Eastwich placo. Miss Agnes come along with 'cm. Then the second load come, eap'ned by tho Tal ford girl. And then thero was doings. Them Fresh Air young onea wa'n't all of n pleco with Ucdny, which was a mercy. Ho was a handful in himself, that little sorrel-top was but there was enough like him to keep things stirred up. Marcellus' old shingled prison had to take It thnt day. Thore must have been some stewing in Heav en if old Lady Berry could look down and see them youngsters whooping nnd carrying-on in tho front parlor. In Mrs. B.'s day that parlor was a kind of paint's iest, as you might say, and tho only time anybody opened its door was when she sailed in with tho broom and feothor duster. And then she must havo hnd to navigate by com puss, becnuso the blinds wns always shut tight and the curtains drawn and 'twas too dark to see anything. Hnrtloy looked out for tho chlldron and Van Brunt piloted tho two girls over the place, pointing out where tho garden waa going to be somo day, and wliero tho hens was likely to roost nnd the pig to board. They seemed to be as pleased and tickled hb ho was, and thought everything was "lovely" and "Just too quaint and dear." I was busy cooking nnd Lord James sulked out In tho barn. Ho couldn't get away until late afternoon on account of the train. Itedny stuck to Hartley llko a mud turtle to a big toe. He was right at his heels all tho time. By and by tho pair of 'cm como nut in tho kitchen to sco me. "Heilo, Andiow Jackson," says I to tho boy. "How do you llko this part of the country?" "Great!" says he, his eyes snapping. "Geo, nln't we having the peach ot a tlmo!" "Must feed you woll ovor thoro," I Bays. "Seems to me you're getting fat already. Board's up to tho mark of tho Newsboys' home, ain't it?" "You bet!" saya he. "Chicken, and pie, and nil tho milk you wnnt. And cream aw, Bay!" and he smacked his lips. "How'd you llko to live here all the time?" Ho shook his head. "Naw," ho sayB. J'Too still. Somotlmes I can't sleep "good 'causo It's so still. ( No El, nor whiBtles nor lights nor nothing. And no Chinks to chuck rocks at. Mlsa Agony won't let yju chuck rocks at folks anyhow." "Don't you wish you was back In New York with your dad?" I says. "Not much," ho Bays. "Tho old man used to club me too good. When ho was full I'd get a belting most ovory day." I looked nt Hartley and ho at me. Poor llttlo shaver! It's when I see how bomo folks treat children that I got to thinking I could mako a hotter world than this is. "Going to run nwuy ugaln?" I asks, after u minute. (TO UE CONTINUED.) HURT IN A WRECK.
