BY J. P. SAUTH. CHAPTER V. I tried to follow at the same speed, but, after going a few yards, had to come to an ignominious halt, clinging wildly to a clump of gorse. My hat went rolling steadily down to the shore, several hundred feet below, whilst my face and hands were scratched and bleeding, and my feet constantly slipping from under me. At last, jammed in between two bush es, I crouched cautiously forward to review my position. My sprightly guide had reached the sheep track, then, after looking hastily round for me, I saw her suddenly spring up the side of a block of granite, as bald as the palm of my hand, and disappear seawards over the summit. "By Jove!" I exclaimed in utter astonishment. "Why, she's an ante lope, a mountain cat, the old witch's granddaughter! I wish I had never come across either of them! 1 sup pose I must get down somehow!" Half kneeling, half sitting, I de scended slowly, swinging myself from bush to bush, heedless of the stinging blows from furze and thistle, keeping my clumsy heels well off the treach erous soil, when suddenly, almost half-way down, from under a bed of bracken that covered her to the chin, Helen's face looked up at me full of eager, contrite concern, her strange dark eyes sweeping my disfigured, per spiring face with a look that thrilled me almost uncannily. "I am so sorry," she panted; "oh, so sorry! I quite forgot you were a stranger and unaccustomed to the cliffs: they are dreadfully slippery this •weather. I have to go after the sheep for Mike every day now—he can't hold on a bit, though he was born on the mountain. Ah, how you have hurt yourself, to be sure! Those dreadful furze bushes! Put your hand on my shoulder, I will guide you down the rest; we have only the ferns to work through now to the path. Here's your hat; it's not spoiled a bit—I picked it up on the beach before the water had time to reach it." "It was after my hat you were scal ing that cliff?" "Yes, I had no time to go around by the path; the tide is on the turn and would have taken it off to America in two minutes more." "You're not going away now, are you?" I asked eagerly, lifting my hand from her slender shoulder. "You'll see me beyond the first point, won't you?" "Yes, yes—for sure, yes," she an swered quickly; "I will go with you to the Goat's Back, if you like—ay, and beyond it. Oh, Mr. Dennys, what a rude, wild, ill-mannered girl you must think me to fly off and leave you like that after you being so kind to come that long way—from London itself— just to tell granny about poor Uncle Brian! Will you forgive me, please?" I pressed the childish hand, saying smilingly^— "Yee, yes, I forgive you, Miss Helen." "And you will let me wipe the blood from your poor face, won't you?" she pleaded, dipping a large cool leaf into a little crystal pool under a rock— handkerchief this child of nature had none, I suspected—and passing it over my hot and blood-stained face. After this we marched on side by side and became fast friends. Long before we reached the ruined cabin, I knew the whole story of her lonely, neglected life. I knew that she had been born on the mountain—had lived there all the eighteen years of her uneventful life, never once having vis ited the post-town of Droomlague; that she had no father or mother, brothers nor sisters, but lived all alone with her grandmother and two serv ants, Mike Doolan and his wife Bid dy; and finally, though the poor child made no complaint of her natural guardian or Indeed seemed aware there was cause for any, yet I clearly saw that she was shamefully neglected by her, and no more concern paid to her bodily or her mental well-being than If she had been a goat browsing on the mountain-side, instead of a dead daughter's only child. After helping for a couple of hours every morning in the dairy and farm yard, she told me she was free to do what she pleased, wander whither she would the whole day long, make what chance acquaintance she liked, come in at any hour of the evening unques tioned, unrestrained—indeed, she had often spent the whole night lying on the cliff, when she found her ill-ven tilated attic too hot and close to sleep in, and no one had been any the wiser; and even if they were, she argued—in answer to my dissenting look—Biddy wouldn't mind, and granny wouldn't care—not she! And, besides, what harm was it? Sure nothing in the world made her feei so good and hap py as lying there all alone in the great stillness, waiting for the first streak of dawn to wake up the sleeping sea, watching the white-winged sea-birds sailing in and out among the great dark rocks! "And now I must be going, Mr. Den nys," she said, when a cluster of thatched roofs lying close to the shore came within view," for there's Bally killagan before you. How quickly we have walked, to be sure! I never thought I came so far. Good-by and thank you again and again for com ing. I'm afraid you won't get the train from Droomleague tonight—It'» too bad!" "Tonight?" I repeated dreamily. "I—I am not going away tonight. I think I am going to stay in this neigh borhood for a few days more." "Yes? Why, what would ke«p you here?" "I don't know. What am I saying? Fishing—no, no, I mean sketching! You must know, Miss Helen, I'm a bit of an artist—a very little bit indeed, and from what I've seen of the ooeet today—" x: - hkî: :: Î : "Oh, ye3," she interrupted eagerly, "you're right! It's quite a familiar ground for marine artists. Two or three of them come every summer and put up at Murphy's farm at Bally killagan, and you'll find it quite clean and comfortable. And fancy, Mr. Den nys, last year one of them put me in a picture just as I sat on a rock for nlnst him; only he painted my feet bare, my skirt red and my face quite— quite pretty." "You'll let me try my hand if I bring my easel this way tomorrow?" I aeked quickly; to which she gave a pleased assent and promised to show me all the picturesque points within a radius of nine miles. CHAPTER VI. I stayed on in Donegal, and during fourteen golden days caricatured the "royal walls of the Atlantic," while Helen sat at my feet and did the hon ors of her native soil, her brown hands busy all the time mending old Dad dy Griffin's tattered fish nets, bleach ing for miles along the parched turf that covered the brow of the cliff. "Well, yes, it is a bit of a job, sir," she admitted deprecatingly ; "but, sure, if I did not do it for him, who would? His sons are away at sea, and Milly, his wife—she was my nurse when I was a baby—has gone to see her daughter at Droomleague; and he's so old and blind—the creature! Who wouldn't give him a hand?" She netted busily, while I daubed lazily and amused myself drawing out this impulsive child of nature, to whom all the artificial beauties and wonders of the great world beyond that lonely wall of rock were as un known as to an inhabitant of the Car ibbean islands in the last century. The pastime began to grow upon me; I felt a daily increasing interest in watching her dark face glowing and brightening, her strange eyes sparkling, distending with wonder, horror or delight in obedience to my sybaritic fancy. Then, becoming more interested in my companion, I telegraphed up to town for specimens of magical modern art, then for books, pictures, photographs, hot-house flow ers, bon-bons, all of which she be lieved I daily unearthed from my in exhaustible portmanteau at Mur phy's farm. I stayed on, heedless of aught beyond the fact that I was clearly giving pleasure—to a savage, interesting waif, who seemed not to be worth any one's while to look after, much less amuse, and at the same time improving my own despair ing condition, for the air of Donegal was certainly healing my wounded heart. Day after day the haunting image of my fair false love became fainter and less painful to my sight. I was gleefully looking forward to the time when I could cast her from me altogether and return free and whole in heart to the ancestral acres, when one morning a letter from a friend at Colworth, which commented casually on the "apparently successful innings Lord Sandmouth's son was making with the heiress," awoke my slumber ing love and jealousy to life again. Helen at once noticed my woe-be gone appearance, and, accepting piti fully my explanation of a "beastly headache," begged me to lay aside my work and lie down quietly in the shade. I complied; but, soon tiring of inaction, began to read first to myself and then aloud a rhymetic tale of love, despair, and death told by a master-hand. The sea-stained nets soon dropped from Helen's fingers, the color dyed her clear cheek, her eyes filled, then drooped, and I had the selfish satisfaction of reducing her to the same dismal, unhappy state as myself. Neither of us rallied again; and, when we parted that night, I stood on the hill carelessly watching her re treating figure, and saw her dog— a painfully sensitive little terrier; the only living thing she loved—appar ently begging to be told the cause of her unusual preoccupation, crouch ing, wriggling at her feet, jumping up against her, challenging her atten tion by every art of dog, but in vain. She walked along with downcast head, her arms drooping by her sides. I was moving after her unconsciously, to say, to do, for the life of me I did not know what. Perhaps to tell her not to mourn over imaginary woes, but to keep her real sighs or real sorrow, for the pain perhaps of love betrayed — wantonly betrayed — like mine, when a yellow hand clutched my shoulder, and a coarse voice ex claimed breathlessly— "Stop, ye thief o' the wurrld—stop! What are ye after—eh?" I turned Indignantly and found my self confronted by an old woman in a long blue cloak, and a limp white cap framing an ugly face. "What dy'e mean? What business is it of yours?" I asked, shaking off her hand. "What business? Ye may well ask, ye dirty spalpeen," she retorted bit terly. "No, no; I tell ye, I won't get out o' yer way—ye'll have to knock me down first. I'm only an ould woman, and ye'll do It easy enough; but even then I'll hang onto ye, an' dig me nails into ye, until ye tell me what ye've said to that motherless lit tle crayther that hasn't sowl in the wide wurrld to care whether she—" "Oh!" I interrupted quickly, all the anger leaving my face and voice. "I understand. You are old Molly Grif fin come home at last." "Ay, ay, an' it 's about time I did come home, I'm thinkin'. Ochone, ochone; but Isn't this a cruel wurrld entirely! Oh, aren't ye ashamed of yerself, you that calls yerself a gentleman belikes, to—to play scoun drel like that? Wouldn't her very innocence, her folornness spake to yer black sowl and bid yer go yer way an' laive such as her in peace?" "Molly, Molly," I said gently, for I felt a certain respect and liking tor this nncouth old dame, the only frieoS and protector poor Helen seemed to have, "don't let your tongue run so fast, if you please. Allow me a word in self-defense." Then I explained the cause of the girl's depressed appearance that par ticular evening. After a little hesi tation a look of relief crossed her face, and I saw she believed me. "Well, well, I beg your pardon, that's all I can say. I oughtn't to have been so hasty maybe. But I've had bitter cause, heaven knows, to suspect the likes o' you. Not, sir, . ^nt Tve heer^ anything but^ good of u.„, you. so far. How you've come all the way from London to tell the auld wan' bout poor Master Brian, an' give up his letters—the heavens be his bed this night. But—but," she went on anxiously, after a slight pause, "what I want to know is, yer kind work done, what on earth keeps ye lolterin' on here at the very back o' Godspeed?" "I am doing no harm," I muttered doggedly. "An' I say ye are. No harm to yer self, an' manin' none mayhap, ather ways; but harm all the same to her. She was happy, contented, at laist, poor child, in her lonesome, quiet ways, scampering about wid her dog, swimmin' and splashin' about in the say, until you came with yer soft voice, yer white hands, an' yer hand some face, givin' her what no wan ever give her before, flowers, an' books, sweeties, an' purty gimcracks; an' sweeter still, kind words an' smil in' looks, what her poor little heart'll miss 'an hunger for sore when ye've gone yer ways an' forgotten her very name. But ye mane no harm of coorse, of coorse—ah, get away with ye, man alive; yer all the same the wurrld over, rieb or poor, high or low—every mother's son of ye—self, self, self!" "You're mistaken, you're mistaken indeed, old woman," I broke in earn estly; "she's a child, a mere child. 1 know her better than you. She'll forget me before I will her, you'll see." "You know her better than me, who nursed her from the cradle an' her mother before her," retorted Molly contemptuously—"you! An' I tell ye to yer face, it's you that are mistaken, not me. I see a change in her the last month, a great change; I seen it at the first moment I looked at hei last Tuesday, an' I've watched hei close ever since." "Well, what have you found out?" (To be Continued.) JUBAL A. EARLY'S JULEP. of Temperauee Commentary by ^ North Carolina. Nearly a quarter of a century ago, as all old and middle-aged persons will remember, the religious temperance women of the north organized a mova nftnt against the saloons, which as sumed large proportions and took the form of a veritable crusade. It invad ed almost every city and large town, bands of enthusiastic women going from saloon to saloon praying and j singing in every place where they could secure permission. While the crusade of the "praying sisters" was at its height that stanch old rebel, Jubal A. Early, visited Richmond, Va., for the first time since the close of the civil war. "In the hotel," said he to tho writer, "I met my old friend, Governor Vance of North Carolina, since United States senator. Although I was not the governor of South Carolina, Vance suggested that It had been a long tim* —fifteen years in our case—between drinks, and we went In quest of a Ju lep. 'General,' said he, after remark ing that Virginia was the place for Ju leps, 'have you read how the women of the north are trying to destroy the liquor traffic by praying in the sa loons?' I told him that I had, when he asked: 'Do you believe it's true? I have an idea that it's only a Joke of the yankee newspapers.' I told him that It was true, that a friend of mine had witnessed the rather unique proceeding in Columbus, O. 'Where do they get their authority, general? For the life of me I can't understand.' 'They pro fess to get it from the bible,' I replied. 'Now look here, Early,' he responded j j very earnestly, 'as a boy and young pretty regular Su |day man I was school scholar, and the only Instanoe in the bible that I can recall where any one ever asked for water was a poor devil in hell, where I think h# rightly belonged.' " HAD HEARD DIVINE PATTI« Why Sherman Did N »t Care to Hear Blanche Itoom«velt Sing. An actor at one of the local theaters tells a story of how blunt old General Sherman declined to hear Blanche Roosevelt sing. The general's kind heart and helpful nature led him to stretch out the hand of encouragement to many a struggling aspirant for dra matic and musical honors. But hli proteges sometimes were not selected with a due regard for their artlitlc capabilities. Among others, he be stowed his friendly Interest upon Miss Roosevelt, who, fifteen years ago or more went to New York to aing In light opera. She Instituted a weekly musicale at her hotel, preceding her appearance. One of these General Sherman was expected to attend as the guest of highest honor. The hours went by and the hostess was in des pair, for the general did not arrive. Lethargy fell upon the assemblage, which the playing and singing of mediocre people could not dissipate. After midnight the grim old warrior, wrapped in a long military cape, ap peared on the scene, and Joy beamed on Miss Roosevelt's handsome face. "Oh, general," she said impulsively, "I've refused to sing until you came. What would you like?" "Nothing," he answered laconically. The lady's face fell. "You see," he continued, "1 have been down at the Academy this evening listening to Pattl as Marguer ite, and I don't want the memory dis turbed before I go to my dreams." It was rather tough, but Miss Roose velt took It good-humoredly, for she 1 knew that the old general had no thought of being UDgallant when he said Jost what he meant in hl« own delightfully blunt fashion. The only material difference be tween a cold and fbe grip Is la the doctor's bllL WHEN HOME IS SWEET. How to Blake the Attractive Men. Fewer wives would sit lonesomely at home while their husbands roam else where in search of entertainment if more wives realized that home should be something besides a clean place to eat and sleep in, says the Gentle woman. Men "hate" women's tea par ties and large show functions, but they like little dinner and supper parties. Many families refrain from entertain ing because they cannot do so on s n expensive scale. It is, however, possi We to glye 8maU dinn<îra and Buppers are both enjoyable and inexpen sive. Ask people who either do or will like each other, and if you wish the women to have a good time have just as many men guests as women guests. If the men are to have a good time make sure that some of the women are pretty and flattering. Men like to be flattered. Oh, yes, they do. One of the surest ways to be awkward "in com pany" is to try to act differently from one's accustomed manner. If one's everyday manner is not good enough for a company, then It should be changed, but the most delightful com pany manner is the natural manner when it is natural to be charming. One of the charms of an agreeable manner is to seem unaffected; another is to have something to say worth hearing. and to tay it easily and Interestingly; another is to listen appreciatively when others speak.

The appointment of W. C. Hayes as Locomotive Superintendent of the Bal timore and Ohio railroad will be fol lowed by a distinct change in the plan of over-seeing locomotives in service. The positions of "Supervisors of en gines and trains'' have been abolished and traveling engineers substituted, who will report to the new official at Mt. Clare, Baltimore. The road has been divided into the following subdi visions and a traveling engineer ap pointed for each; Philadelphia to Washington: Baltimore to Brunswick; Brunswick to Cumberland; Cumber land to Grafton, Grafton to Benwood and I'arkersburg; Pittsburg to Cum berland and Wheeling; Wheeling to Sandusky an «i branches; Chicago to Akron. The plan is expected to pro duce economical results with an im proved service. Application of Telephotography. Telephotography has recently been applied to a novel purpose by Italian engineers in the Alps, south of Mont Blanc, where the frontier line between France and Italy lies among the moun tains. The telephotographic camera produces a magnified picture of a dis tant object, and by means of such pic tures the Italians have been able to study the details of French forts which they cannot approach near enough to photograph with an ordinary camera.

The mineral wealth of the state, with its many famous mines, seems to have become fixed in the minds of strangers, crowding out all know'edge of her wonderfully fertile soil.

From employing persons to start the applause in theaters, foreign play houses, notably some of those In Paris and Berlin, have taken to mechanical means of stimulating applause. Tha Inventor, Herr Zimmerman, has learned that two leather sacks, filled with air, when brought violently to gether, make a noise precisely like that produced by the clapping of hands. He placed pairs of leather sacks In hidden places throughout a theater, and then connected them by wires with the wings, so that they could be set In mo tion by electricity on a button being pressed. The regisseur In the wlngg controls the apparatus In all parts of the house, and can produce applause from the gallery, the pit or the stalls at will. a£ M An Excellent Combination.
