. Prof. Griswold's eves wandered re-
peatedly from his manuscript to the
car ceiling , then furtively to the un- '
,
-compromisingly averted shoulder and
; 1' ' head of the young lady , then back to
l i . . his lecture notes , until he was weary
j of the process.
"r. ! r The alligator-hide suit-case thrust
; under the seat bore the familiar label
i of a Swiss hotel . where Griswold had
4 once spent a week , and' spoke of the
i
girl's acquaintance with an ampler
! . world. When Phoebe had brought it
forth the initials "D.O. " in small
black letters suggested Baltimore &
Ohio to Griswold's lazy speculations ,
. "whereupon he reflected that while
, . '
( . Baltimore was plausible , the black
. .1 servant eliminated Ohio ; and as every
' , l/ / Virginian knows every other Virgin-
' 1 ian , he tried to identify her with
II Old Dominion family names beginning
with 0 , but without result.
He went out to supper , secured the
only remaining table for two , and
was giving his order when the young
lady appeared. She had donned her
. -I hat , and as she stood a moment in
: the entrance , surveying the line of
.
. ; tables , her distinction was undeniable.
'There were but two vacant places in
the car , one facing Griswold , the
other across the aisle at a larger
table where three men were en-
gaged in animated discussion. The
: girl viewed the prospect with evident
. disappointment , as the waiter drew
, out the vacant chair at Griswold's
table. She carried herself bravely ,
' t 'but wore still a triste air that
5- : -
* touched Griswold's sympathy. He
-rose , told the waiter that he would
,
sit at the other table , and the girl
'murmured her thanks wjth a forlorn
, little smile as she took' his seat.
The appearance of Griswold aroused
i .
. the Mississippian to a renewal of the
I , discussion of the New Orleans inci
\ dent. He was in excellent humor , and
,
had carried to the car a quart bottle ,
'
; ' which he pushed toward Griswold :
t
"As the governor of North Carolina
. . . said to the governor of South Caro-
: .iina ; - "
lina"No
"No , thank you , " and as he spoke
I 'Griswold's eyes fell upon the girl ,
and he saw annoyance written fleet-
ingly on her face.
"Well , sir , " the Mississippian de
clared , "after you left us awhile ago
we got to talking about Dangerfield.
-and his trouble with Osborne. There's
something back of this rumpus. You
( -see , if they lived in the same state
you might account for a fierce rivalry
"between them. Both of 'em , for ex
ample , , might have the senatorial bee
in their bonnets ; but either one of
'em could make the senate any time
.
he pleased. I guess they're the two
j 'biggest men in the south right now.
i
They're too big to be touchy about
I' ' any small matter ; that's why I reckon
, there's something behind this little
-racket over there at New Orleans.
No passing remark would send men off
. that way , so wild that they wouldn't
travel on the same train together.
c "Why , gentlemen- "
"Please pass the salt , " interposed
Griswold.
I The Mississippian enjoyed the
sound of his own voice , which boomed
f out above the noise of the train with
'broad effects of dialect that these
f ' 'types will not be asked to reproduce.
fI I Griswold's eyes had again met those
f , of the girl opposite , and there was , he
I felt , a look of appeal in them. The
.
discussion distressed her , just as the
. telegrams from New Orleans in the
1' ' afternoon papers had distressed her ,
11 I and Griswold began at once to enter-
; tain his table companions with his
r L views on a number of national polit
311 ical issues that were as vital to Ari
-zona Wyoming as to the Carolinas
5' When he went back into the car at
11 o'clock he found the girl and her
maid still sitting in their sections
though most of the other berths , in
cluding his own , had been made up.
- The train was slowing down , and ,
Wishing a breath of air before retir-
t .tng , he went to the rear platform of
s
- 'tbe sleeper , which was the last car
of the train. The porter had opened
the door in the vestibule to allow the
tbrakeman ( to run back with his tor-
pedoes. The baggage car bad devel-
oped a hot box. and , jumping out.
. . . . Griswold saw lanterns flashing ahead
. . Where the trainmen labored with the
tBick wheel. The porter vanished ,
'leaving Griswold alone. The train
\had stopped at the edee of a small

town , whose scattered housei lay
darkly against the "hills beyond. The
platform lamps of a station shone a
quarter of a mile ahead. The feverish
steel yielded reluctantly to treatment ,
and Griswold went forward and'
watched the men at work ! for a few
minutes , then returned to the end of
the train. He swung' himself into the
vestibule and leaned upon the guard
rail , gazing down the track toward
the brakeman's lantern. Then he
grew impatient at the continued de :
lay and dropped down again , pacing
back and forth in the road-bed behind
the becalmed train. . The night was
overcast , with hints of rain in the
air , and a little way from the rear
lights it was pitch dark. Griswold
felt sure that the train would not
leave without the brakeman , and he
was further reassured by the lanterns
of the trainmen beside the baggage
car. Suddenly , as he reached the car
and turned to retrace his steps , a
man sprang up , seemingly from no-
where , and accosted him.
"I reckon y'u're the gov'nor , ain't
y'u ? "
"Yes , certainly , my man.Vhat
can I do for you ? ' " 'replied Griswold ,
instantly.
"T reckoned it was y'u when y'u
fust come out on the platform. I'm
app'inted to tell y'u , gov'nor , that if ;
y'u have Bill Appleweight arrested in .
South Car'lina , y'u'll get something
one of these days y'u won't like. : And
if y'u try to find me y'u'll get it quick- '
er. Good night , gov'nor. "
"Good night ! " stammered Griswod.
The least irony had crept into the
word governor as the man uttered it
and slipped away into the darkness.
The shadows swallowed him up ; the
frogs in the ditch , beside the track
chanted dolorously ; then the locomo-
tive whistled for the brakeman , whose
lantern was already bobbing toward
the train.
As Griswold swung himself into the
vestibule the girl who had borrowed
his newspapers turned away hurried-
ly and walked swiftly before him to
her section. The porter , who was
gathering her things together , said , as
she paused'in the aisle by her seat :
"Beginnin' to get ready , Miss : Os-
bo'n. We're gwine intu Columbia 30
minutes late all account dat hot box. "
Griswold passed on to the smoking
I '
compartment and and lighted a cigar.
His acquaintances of the supper table
had. retired , and he was glad to be
alone with his thoughts before the
train reached Columbia. He dealt
harshly with himself for his stupidity
in not having associated the girl's
perturbation over the breach between
the governor of North Carolina and
the governor of South Carolina with
the initials on her traveling bag ; he
had been very dull , but it was clear
to him now that she was either the
daughter or some other near relative
of Gov. Osborne. In a few minutes
she would leave the train at Colum-
bia where the governor lived , and , be-
ing a gentleman , he would continue
on his way to Richmond , and thence
to the university , and the incident
would be closed. But Griswold was a
lawyer , and he had an old-fashioned
southern lawyer's respect for the
majesty of law. On the spur of curios-
ity or impulse he had received a
threatening message intended for the
governor of South Carolina , who ,
from the manner of the delivery of
the message , had been expected on
this train. Griswold argued that the
man who had spoken to him had been
waiting at the little station near
which they had stopped , in the .hope
of seeing the governor ; that the wait-
ing messenger , had taken advantage of
the unexpected halt of the train , and ,
further , that some suggestion of the
governor in his own appearance had
deceived the stranger. He felt the
least bit guilty at having deceived the
man , but it was now clearly his duty
to see that the governor was advised
of the threat that had been communi-
cated in so unusual a manner.
He was pondering whether he
should do this in person or by letter
or telegram , when the rattle of the
train over the switch frogs in the
Columbia yards brought him to the
point of decision.
The porter thrust his head into the
compartment.
"Columbia- . Yo' berth's all
ready , sah. Yo' gwine t' Richmond-
yes , sah. "
His hands were filled with the
young lady's luggage. The lettering
on the suit-case seemed , in a way , " to
appeal to Griswold and to fix his de
termination.
"Porter ! Put my things off. I'll
wait here for the morning train. "
CHAPTER II. | |
The Absence of Gov. Osborne.
Griswold spent the night at the
Saluda house , Columbia , and rose in
the morning with every intention of
seeing Gov. Osborne , or some one in
authority at his office , as soon as pos-
sible and proceeding to Richmond
without further delay. As he scanned
the morning newspaper at breakfast
he read with chagrin this item , prom-
inently head-lined :
"Gov. Osborne , who was expected
home from the Cotton Planters' con-
vention yesterday morning , has been
unavoidably detained in Atlanta by
important personal business. Miss
Barbara Osborne arrived last night
and proceeded at once to the gover-
nor's mansion.
"Several matters of considerable im
portance await the governor's return.
Among these is the matter of dealing
with the notorious Bill Appleweight.
It is understood that the North Caro-
lina officials are unwilling to arrest
Appleweight , though his hiding-place
is in the hills on the border near Kil-
dare is well known. Although he
runs back and forth across the state
line at pleasure , he is a North Caro-
linian beyond question , and it's about
time Gov. Dangerfield took note of
the fact. However . . . , the governor of
, . . . . , . < i'r . r : : Y
- -
. .
.
To -
South , Carolina may be relied on to
act with his usual high sense of pub-
lic duty in this matter. "
Prof. Griswold was not pleased to
learn that the governor was still ab
sent from the capital. He felt that
he deserved better luck after the
trouble he had taken to warn the
governor. It was now Tuesday ; he
had no further lectures at the univer-
sity until the following Monday , and
after he had taken his bearings of
Columbia , where it occurred to him
he had not an acquaintance , he walked
toward the capitol with a well-formed
idea of seeing the governor's private
secretary-and , if that person ap -
peared to be worthy of confidence , ap -
prising him of the governor's danger
It was not yet nine o'clock when he
entered the governor's office. He
waited in the reception-room , * adjoin
ing the official chamber , but the sev
eral desks' * of the clerical staff re
mained unoccupied. He chafed a bit
as time passed and no one appeared ,
for his north-bound train left at 11 ,
and he could not fairly be asked to
waste the entire day here. He was
pacing the floor , expecting one of the
clerks to appear at any moment , when
a man entered hurriedly , walked to
the closed inner i door , shook it impa- -
tiently , and kicked it angrily as he
turned away. He was a short , thick
set man of 35 , dressed in blue serge ,
and his movements were quick and
nervous. He growled under his
breath and swung round upon Gris
wold as though to tax him with re
sponsibility for the closed door.
"Has no one been here this morn
ing ? " he demanded , glaring at the
closed desks. :
"If you don't count me I should an
swer no , " replied Griswold quietly.
"Oh ! "
The two gentlemen regarded each
other for a moment , , contemptuous
dislike clearly written on the smaller
man's face , Griswold half-smiling and
indifferent.
"I am waiting for the governor " -
marked Griswold , thinking to gain
information.
"Then you're likely to wait some
time , " jerked : the other. "The wholb
place seems to be abandoned. I - never
saw such a lot of people. "
"Not having seen them myself , I
must reserve judgment , " Griswold re
marked , and the blue serge suit flung
out of the room.
Presently another figure darkened
the entrance , and the colored servant
whom Griswold had seen attending
Miss Osborne on the train from At-
lanta swept into the reception-room
and. grandly ignoring his presence ,
sat down in a chair nearest the closed
door of the inner chamber. Griswold
felt that this was encouraging , as im
plying some link between the gover-
nor and his domestic household and
he was about to ask the colored wom
an if she knew the business hours of
the office when the closed door opened
and Miss Osborne appeared on the
threshold. The colored woman rose ,
and Griswold , who happened to be
facing the door when it swung open
with such startling suddenness , stared
an instant and bowed profoundly.
"I beg your pardon , but I wish very
much to see Gov. Osborne or his sec-
retary. " ' *
Miss : Osborne , in white , trailing a
white parasol in her hand , and with
white roses in her belt , still stood half
withdrawn inside the private office.
"I am very sorry that Gov. Osborne
and his secretary are both absent , "

she answered , and the two eyed each
other gravely. Griswold felt that the
brovn eyes into which he looked had
lately known tears ; but she held her
head hgh ! , with a certain defiance ,
even.

Where Belshazzar Feasted.
German excavators in the ruins of
Babylon have been looking over Nebu
chadnezzar's palace. The ancient city
is buried beneath the remnants of su
perimposed buildings , but the tomb of
the old civilization has ! been made to
yield its secrets. There has been
found the great oblong hall , with an
alcove for the throne , where Belshaz
zar held the famous feast and heard
the warning voice of the prophet.
Many relics of those precursors of
the modern public dinner have been
discovered. The architecture of those
days seems to have been mighty. One
of the outer walls of the palace was
more than 24 yards thick.
Growing Cotton In Palestine.
Cotton growing is being resumed In
Palestine. An extensive suitable area
is available. During our civil war cot-
ton was cultivated there on an exten-
sive scale , of which several old cotton
presses still bear witness. It is said
that the cotton was of very good qual-
ity. Companies are being organized.
In Turkey of late years a distinct re-
vival of the cotton industry has be-
come manifest.

SWELLING THE HOTEL BILL .
Hotel Keeper's Method of Taxing
Traveler Had at Least ths
Method of Novelty.
One of the things - which help swell
the traveler's expenses , both in this
country and abroad , is the "extra. " It
may or may not be charged in the bill ,
but it is sure to be paid for. Proba-
bly even the most generous traveler ,
however , will have some sympathy for
the gentleman in the following story
who was made to pay liberally for a
certain annoying privilege.
During his stay at the hotel the
weather had been very hot.
"Charles ' said the landlord to the
clerk who was making out the bill to
be presented to the departing guest ,
"have you noticed that the gentleman
in number seven has consulted the
thermometer on the piazza at least ten
times every morning during his stay
here ? "
Charles replied that he had.
"Well , " said the landlord , "charge
him the price of one dinner a day for
the use of the thermometer.-Youth's

Why the Boy Gave Thanks.
Alan had played the entire day with
little brother without an impatient
word. After saying his customary
prayer that night , his mother suggest-
ed that he add : "I thank God I was
not impatient with little brother to-
day. " This he did with much fer-
vency ; after which he remarked that
there were some other things he
would like to thank God for , and forth-
with he closed his eyes and said :
"I thank God I offered my candy to
mother before taking any myself.
"I thank God I offered my candy
to little brother before taking any my-
self.
self."And I thank God there was some
left. " - Lippincott's.
Lovemaking and Practice.
The only way to become an expert
at lovemaking is to practice. This
was the information handed out to a
handful of hearers by the Hindu phil-
osopher , Sakharam Ganesh Pandit , in
a lecture on "The Science of Love. "
"Love is a divine , discontent , " said
the philosopher , "and if you want to
arouse love in others it can be done
only by giving them love. How to
develop the emotion of love in another
is the great question of today-the art
of'making love. It heeds a great deal
of study and a great deal of prac-
tice. "
"Kin by Marriage. " .
A caller was talking to a small Har-
lem girl who is extravagantly fond of
her mother. She likes her father .
well enough , but he is far from be-

er , knowing the situation , asked the
child why she didn't love her father
as "she did her mother.
"Oh , you see , " she explained , loftily ,
"he is only kin' to us by marriage. "
