A fogr was tryingf with some success to settle down upon London, and. the elec tric liehts were doing their best to deal with it. People were clamoring for cabs, anxious to get home before fares were doubled or refused altogether. And a strolling policeman remarked to his col league on point duty at the Circus that they wouldn't be without a. blanket to night, any way. But Jimmy Beachcroft was not de pressed. For Jimmy Beacheroft, though a modest man. as men go, could not deny that he was getting on. He had been dining that evening with his pub lisher, and had been told casually that hi second novel was going excellently, and that his third was wanted as soon as he could make it ready. "Not so bad," said Jimmy to himself, "and I'm not twenty-eight till tomor row." He took out his watch. "An hour more," he murmured. The fog thickened slightly. "Club or home?" asked Jimmy of him self. He weighed the merits of the two. On the one hand was a comfortable chair, a me. pleasant companions, a game of billiards, and so forth. On the other, a bachelor fiat in the Brampton Road. He could picture it, dark and lonely, in his mind's eye. But in the flat above was Bernard Cunningham, the artist, and Madge. Madge should be at home tonight. "I'm sure Bernard said there was to be no rehearsal this even ing, and that she was going to stay at home," said Jimmy to himself. Madge lived in the flat with her brother and had a secondary part in the forthcoming production. "It shall be home," remarked Jimmy to the end of his cigar. "Then I can find out perhaps why Madge has been snubbing me so persistently. Keally. I fancy I'm quite worth marrying now." He walked across the Circus and took his way down Piccadilly. Anxious to reach home with as little interruption as possible, he plunged through the. traffic to the less crowded side. It was just then that he noticed a figure in front of him, the timid figure of a girl who was ooviously frightened. You can see when a girl is frightened in the streets, even from behind, by the quick turn of her head to and fro. Now, when a man is in love, as Jimmy was. his first impulse is to help any other girl in trouble for the sake of the girl he loves. So Jimmy, being assured that the girl was frightened, was inspired to protect her. But how? She was walking quick ly along Piccadilly, and Jimmy hurried after her. "Now, shall I speak to her and offer to find her a 'bus or a cab, or to escort her on foot?" said Jimmy to himself. "I might explain that I am very respect able, and have no evil designs, and " But at thut moment some men came out from a side street, and the girl, look ing apprehensively around her, darted across the road to the other side. Jimmy glared at the men, and followed the girl. "I'm afraid that would look a little strange," he muttered, as he plodded after her. "But it's a beastly shame that a girl should be startled like this when-there's a decent man close by to look after her." After going for a hundred yards or so, during which Jimmy walked unobstru sively a little way behind her. resolved to smite hip and thigh any one who in terrupted or insulted her, he saw a knot of men coming from the opposite direc tion. They were linked arm in arm and proclaiming loudly in various keys that they were not going home till morning. "No, nor you ain't likely to. unless you've got bail handy," remarked a po liceman. Jimmy braced himself for action as the gill hurried on in front of him. But suddenly she changed her course again and skipped behind a crawling hansom and across the road again. "I have half a mind to tell her that I'm here," said Jimmy to himself, "and that she needn't be alarmed." However, he decided that, as she was in no real peril at present, he would merely stand by, as it were, to help in case of need. The south side of Piccadilly was al most deserted, and the girl hurried quickly along without interruption. As she passed the cab shelter she hesitated a moment. Some hansom drivers, were loudly chaffing the man on the box of a four-wheeler and trying to improve the shape of his tall hat with their nose bags. Jimmy had decided to give her his company -and protection in running the gauntlet, when she suddenly started forward at a great pace. They were nearing Hyde Park corner when her walk became a run. and Jimmy, taking his cigar fiom his mouth, went after her. "I'll see the poor little girl through, now I've started," he said to himself. She sped across the open space and plunged into the knot of people gath ered about the westward-bound omni buses. For a moment he lost sight of her. Then, as he pushed his way through the little crowd, he saw that she was clambering into a Putney 'bus. "Well, I suppose she's safe now," he said to himself, it must be confessed, with a tinge of disappointment. "Any way, I've done my duty." Jimmy lifted his umbrella and called a passing hansom. "Poor little girl! Pity she didn't know I was looking after her." he said to himself, as the cab sped down Park Side. At Buiiingdon Mansions he stopped the rub. Bv this time he had forgottetn the frightened little girl of Piccadilly in thel I..l .1 AI...1. C, fr H I llltipH I lull Ji r-reiiij iiirtiic v uiiiu:- ham. He passed by his own flat, which he knew ' would depress him. There is not a bachelor in a thousand who would wililrigiv go home until he wants to go to bed. At The door of the flat above he rang the electric bell. "He's just gone to post a letter, I think, sir." said the servant. "Well. then. I ll come in and wait for him." said Jimmy, his heart jumping at the prospect of finding Madge alone. "He expected you, I believe." said the maid, leading the way to Bernard Cun ningham's studio, which served also' as the sitting room of the flat. But Madge was not there. The studio was empty; the sofa on which she gener ally sat in the evening was in its accus tomed place before the fire, and the cush ion in' the corner on which she rested was crumpled as though by a recent occu pant. Jimmy stepped across and kissed it. "Rather a pretty incident for a story," he said to himself. The sound of a key in the outer door, and Jimmy stood erect before the fire, waiting. The studio door opened and Madge rushed in. "Oh. I've had such an awful experi ence!" she began, and seeing Jimmy standing before the ftre. stopped. "Wber-s Bernard?" she asked. "Gone to post a letter, I'm told." said Jimmy. "I'm waiting for him. But the experience? You look frightened." Jimmy regarded her as critically as a man can regard the woman he loves, and he noticed that Madge was white and a little disheveled. "A man." said Madge, "followed me." "Where?" asked Jimmy. "Is he out side?' "Oh. no in Piccadilly." "But have yoti been "to the theater?" "Yes. We had to rehearse this morn ing, and then again tonight. And in Pic cadilly, as I was coming home; oh, it was so horrid!" Madge threw off her cloak. "Did you did you look around?" asked Jimmy. "Of course I didn't'" replied Madge. "Then how did you know he was fol lowing you?" "Oh. a girl can feel that. A man wouldn't understand." 'Wau he a a nice looking- man?" said Jimmy, with some inkling of the true state of the cast. "No. a horrid man! No one but a hor rid man would have done it. T had to run and catch a 'bus. And and he ran after me. I'm trembling still." She sat down before the fire, and Jimmy saw a tear hovering upon her eyelashes. "Book here," he said, after taking a minute to grasp the situation firmly, "there was no cause for alarm. You were being looked after all right. I was the man." "You. Mr. Beacheroft? How dare you be so horrid?" "I didn't want to let you out of my sight until I had een you In safety. I knew you were frightened." Jimmy watted for her reply standing over her bv the fire. "You knew who I was?" she asked presently, looking tip at him. "Of course I did," said Jimmy, without wincing. "Then why didn't you speak to me?" "I thought somehow that I'd offended vou lately, and you mightn't like it. Have I?" Madge shook her head. "Besides, I thought it might be a useful lessi in." "Why should you want to teach me a lesson?" asked Madge, standing up and facing him. "tJirls shouldn't go about alone so late at night," said Jimmy. "But suppose they can't help it?" said Madge. "Suppose they have to make their own living? I hate it, heavens knows especially when I have such a fright as this." Somehow or other Jimmy found himself holding her hand. "Wouldn't it -be nicer." he said, "if you had someone to go about with you. to look after you; someone who had a right to do so?" Madge looked at him with inquiring eyes, the tear still trembling on her eye lashes. "I should be. very glad- if you would give me the job." he said, drawing her toward him. "Come, you're not fright ened now. Madge?" "No. not when I know you are near me " she said. "Hullo! You two seem pretty busy!" said Bernard Cunningham from the door way. "We are," said Jimmy, releasing Madge from his arms; "we've been getting engaged." HIS GREAT C031P0SURE. Form N. O. Times-Democrat. "In the backyard of a pretty place owned by a friend of mine in the neigh borhood of Audubon Park," said a Canal street business man, "there is an old fashioned summer house in a state of picturesquqe dilapidation. It is octag onal in shape and has eight ornamental windows, in each of which the glass has been shattered by what appears to have been a sudden furious blow something that knocked out the center bodily and left nothing but a fringe of splintered fragments. The work is very suggestive of a club, and I couldn't help remark ing upon it while strolling over the grounds in the course of a little visit last Saturday afternoon. You seem to have been standing a siege down here, said I. My friend smiled. That reminds me of a story,' he replied. "You know I am a collector of china in a small way,' he went on, 'and about the best things I have are a few pieces of old Sen-Tong porcelain that I keep in the large cabi net in the library. They date back to the fourth dynasty, and are, of course, imique. The ware is so thin you can l'ead a newspaper through the undecor ated sections, and perhaps the most re markable thing about it is the fact that it has come down through all these years without getting smashed. As a rule, I keep the glass doors locked, but about a year ago I was entertaining a party of friends and, at their urgent so licitation. I opened up the cabinet for closer inspection. One of my guests call him the major for short fancies himself a connoisseur in ceramics and before I could interfere he reached in and took out the gem 'f the collection, a small dragon vase decorated with the imperial red enamel that hasn't been made for more than 200 years My heart jumped into my mouth and I implored him to be careful, but he was anxious to exhibit his erudition to some ladies, and, after holding forth on the historical fea tures of the ware, he called attention to its extreme lightness. "It weighs scarce ly more than a soap bubble!" he ex claimed and at the same time jumped the vase up and down in his palm. I shut my eyes involuntarily and opened them just in time to see my treasure slip out of his grasp, fly through the air, strike a table leg and break into a thousand fragments Of course, the major was profoundly grieved and the others, who heard me caution him. were inclined to be indignant. I am proud to say I was the only self possessed person in the room. 'It is of no importance, major," I said carelessly, 'and I beg of you rot to distress yourself for a moment. My only fear was that it would break in your hand and cut you.' My apparent unconcern put the guests at their ease,, and the episode gave me quite a repu tation for courtesy and sang froid. The gratitude of the major was really touch ing.' 'But I don't see what connection all this has with the summer house,' said I, when my friend concluded his story. 'I forgot to tell you that I slipped out a few moments after the accident,' he replied. 'Well, that was when I smashed those eight windows."

WITH MORGAN'S RAIDERS. TFrom the Chicago Inter Ocean.l "Cavalry riding." said the Major, "is ex citing but verv exhausting business. Iong distance raids in an enemy's country can be made only where there are a good many horses. John Morgan could never have made his raid through Indiana and Ohio In 1S63 if the counties raided had not been well supplied with the best horses in the west. When he started from the Cumberland river, in east Tennessee, Mor gan believed that he could sweep every thing Detore nun. aim umi ij.f,-..., supported he would capture Cincinnati. "Morgan, with a well organized brigade of cavalrv four thousand strong, swept northward from the Cumberland river through Kentucky to the Ohio river near Brandenberg. forty miles below Louisville There he captured two steamboats. crossed the river, swept through southern Indi ana, galloped around Cincinnati, not more than ten miles from the city, and then moved eastward, expecting to cross the Ohio river at Bufiiiigton, but was driven back, made another attempt at Vellsville, but was finally captured at New Lisbon. "This was the most remarkable raid of the war. It carried panic and confusion into Ohio and Indiana, but in results it was of no benefit whatever to the Confed erate cause. Morgan believed there would be an uprising in the Confederate interest ing Kentucky. There was not. He believ ed that the copperheads in Ohio would give him at least secret support, but when his men stole the horses of the copper heads, or tho peace Democrats, the latter joined the ranks of Morgan's pursuers, and before the raid was half over the whole ftpte was aroused, and men who had taken no interest in the war previous to that time shouldered their squirrel ntl? to fight the raiders who were stealing their horses and- carrying the horrors of war to their very doors. , . "There was hard riding all the tune for Morgan's men. They left behind them a wreckage of broken-down horses. They kept ahead of their ITnlon pursuers pimply because thev stole horses right and left and remounted the men. but they- were finally captured, and that fall Ohio gave the war partv the largest majority in the history of the state up to that time. In fact "the Morgan raid, by carrying the war into the peaceful districts of Indiana and Ohio, provoked a furious feeling of resentment, which influenced people for twenty years. "The comedy of the raid was furnished by the people of the districts wholly un used to war, wholly unprepared for it and with exaggerated ideas of the ferocity of Morgan's men. For two weeks it was only necessary for some mischievous boy to shout 'Morgan is coming!' in any vil lage in central or southern Ohio to create a panic. I know that many of the riders after Morgan got no rest night or day, slept in the saddle, and not a tew of them fell off their horses in sleep. At the end of the raid thev were as exhausted as Morgan's men. but with a more difficult task to perform they never received half the praise given to the raiders. "I remember." continued the Major, "one case in which a woman stabled her carriage horses in the parlor for two days to keep them out of Morgan's hands. I saw Morgan's men ride by that house, and saw some of them stop to listen at the unusual sound of horses' feet on the carpeted floor, but the parlor horses were not disturbed. Some of our neighbors' drove their horses, cattle and sheep thirty miles into the interior, and were away from home a week. Morgan's men looted right and left, and S'ime of them had bolts of calico strapped to their saddles when thev were captured. "Morgan, it must be remembered, made his whole raid with artillery and a wagon train, but he was not in Ohio to fight, and he demonstrated at once the ease with which a peaceful district may be invaded bv a mobile column, and at the same time the peril involved in such a venture. In a few days fifty thousand militiamen were in- the field against him. At first he played with these green soldiers, but at last thev hung on his flanks, eaer to fight as bulldogs. In the last days Hob son's men, who had followed Morgan for hundreds of miles through three states, closed in on their old enemies with a lee fulness that exceeded anything of the kind I ever saw in the army, and Judah's men, closing in on the other side, settled the fate of the raiders. "Morgan's men knew by the maneuver ing and firing when they were fared by trained soldiers, and the first charze of the Vnlon cavalry had in it the impetus of delaved vengeance. The Unionists who rode in" that charge had old scores to set tle, and Morgan's tired veterans were overwhelmed. After Morgan had escaped from the penitentiary at Columbus and had reorganized his command and was again raiding Kentucky, hundreds of Union soldiers on their way home for dis charge left their trains and joined in the pursuit eimply to get a crack at the old raider, and Morgan knew when thHr rifles spoke that he was up against the real thing." atk -4.
