Ned Cramer snoved the little canoe
into the water and waited a moment,
the tying rope in his hand. While he
waited he looked at AnnePrescott, who
was standing on the very edge of the
wharf reading a letter. Anne's dress
was of cerulean blue linen, and the set
ting sun made her hair red gold. Final
ly Ned spoke, albeit the picture was
rarely pretty and appealed to him. Sgf
"Beady, Anne?" he called.
"All right!" said Anne, but she didn't
move, and Ned waited some more pa
tiently, for he knew he was soon to
have his innings and was in no hurry
to take the bat. But when he spoke the
second time he said firmly:
"Come, Anne." J"
Anne tore the letter in two, threw it
into the water and came to the little
bark, where she settled herself Indian
fashion on her knees in the business
end of the canoe. She held it steadily
while he stepped in and bestowed his
long length of limb opposite then she
let the boat drift while she rolled up
her cerulean blue sleeves. It was one
of Anne's peculiarities that she always
did the paddling herself. It was not
merely that the attitude and motion
were becoming to her, though she was
aware of her good points, like most well
balanced girls. It was simply that she
preferred having the men at a disad
vantage—at her mercy, as it were. They
always looked awkward with nothing
to do, and it seemed hard for them to
keep up the conversation.
Ned Cramer was a little different.
He always made himself supremely
comfortable, and, while he didn't look
at her as much as most of the fellows
did. his glance always put her on her
mettle.
The quick strokes of her paddle sent
them rapidly downstream. When they
reached the first bend they passed the
letter, which was skimming along the
surface.
"We'll go down to the island and see
how long it will take for the letter to
get there," said Anne, and Ned assent
ed lazily. He lit a cigarette and smok
ed awhile in silence. When he spoke
his words were, as usual, to the point.
"When are you going to marry me,
Anne?"
Anne, elaborately surprised, held her
paddle in midair in a charming pose
for a moment then it dropped into
the water with a splash.
"I have no present intention of mar
rying you at aN," she said.
"Then it's a good time to form an
intention. I'll help you." He smiled
persuasively. "Make it October. Pall
weddings are so pretty, and that will
give you two months to burn all your
old love letters and make your good
resolutions."
The blood rase under the tan on her
cheeks, but her only answer was a
vigorous and renewed paddling. Ned"
threw away the stub of his cigarette
and felt in his hip pocket for his to
bacco pouch. If he was nervous he
did not show it.
"Shall we say October, then?" he
queried, adding with a note of tender
ness in his voice: "You have made me
very happy, Anne. You will not re
gret"—
"Well, of all the cool impudence I
ever heard!" gasped Anne. "I wouldn't
marry you if—if"— She stopped, ex
asperated.
"If you didn't love me," he finished
for her.
"I hate you!" she boiled. "This is
six times you have made that insane
assertion this summer.. Love you! I
act as if I loved you, do I?" She stop
ped paddling and looked at him. Her
eyes blazed, and he thought she hadn't
looked so pretty since the last time
she had refused him.
"No," he said "you act as if you
didn't, but I know you do." He looked
serious. "Why, it stands to reason,
Anne that you love me or you wouldn't
get so mad when I tell you about it."
"Ned Cramer," she blazed out, "if
you ever try to make love to me again
I'll—I'll make you sorry! Now, you
either talk about something else or
keep quiet."
She had evidently forgotten about
her intention of reaching the island, for
she put down her paddle and let the
canoe drift idly along shore. It was
growing dark, and a crescent moon was
faintly shining in the east. Anne, look
ing attentively upstream, saw a white
speck in the water and, taking her pad
dle, fished it out and deposited it, drip
ping, on his knee.
"It's the letter," he announced, touch
ing it. Anne started.
"Give it to me," she demanded, hold
ing out her hand.
"After I've read it," he said calmly.
"Ned Cramer, that's my letter, and
you have no right to read it
"On the contrary, it's mine since,
firstly, you threw it away, and, second
ly, picked it up again and gave it to me
'to have and to hold.*"
Anne quaked, but she tried bravado.
"Well, it's too dark to read it any
how besides, if all soaked and blear
ed," she said.
"My excellent eyes are not the least
of my many good points," said Ned,
spreading it out carefully. Anne looked
about for means of escape. She saw
Ned lean out and snatch something out
of the water.
"It's the other half," he beamed.
"Now, I'll read it to you." He patched
the halves together, held them to his
eyes a moment laid them down again
on his knee and glanced over at Anne.
She looked relieved.
"I told you it was too dark," she said
triumphantly.
"I Have some muu :.•," he answered,
pulling out a lktle silver case.
"Anne." he went on. "you know you
love me."
"I know that I hate you," she an
swered.
"Anne," he said, smiling at her, "I'm
going to give you just one minute to
tell me you love me, and, if you don't
say it then I'm going to prove it to
you."
Anne's heart panted to say "Yes," but
her stubborn will would not yield. She
said weakly, "Ned, I"—
"Timer* called out Ned, and then he
lit a match and leaned over the letter.
Anne bent forward, her lips parted, her
fingers twitching. The canoe rocked
dangerously.,. .'*
'Of course 1 love Ned,'" read the
man slowly. "The letter," he interrupt
ed himself, "seems to be from—er—
some one to Clara Carlton. 'Of course I
love Ned, but he is too sure of it, and I
mean'
He never finished the sentence, for in
her attempt to snatch the letter Anne
upset the canoe and landed Ned, her
self and the letter in the muddy river.
When she regained her balance and
thought of Ned she discovered him
turning the canoe right side up and
paying no attention at all to her. Her
first thought was that it was fortunate
he had caught hold of the boat. Then
she gasped in amazement, for he had
let it go, and it was floating down
stream.
"Ned Cramer, are you crazy?" she
screamed. "Catch it!"
"I'll take you to the island first," he
answered and waded through the shal
low water to the bald, sandy spot they
called an island. It happened that
when he set her down her feet touched
something hard, but w'hich moved
nevertheless.
"Ned," she screamed, "it's a turtle!"
Ned had started away, and he called
over his shoulder:
"They won't bite if you don't scare
them or the snakes either."
Snakes! She held her dripping
skirts tightly around her and stood, a
pathetic but nevertheless a funny fig
ure, fear written in every line of her
body. She was too frightened to move
when she saw the great turtle she had
stepped on come straight toward her,
craning its bald, snaky head from side
to side. The tears rolled unheeded down
her face and mingled 'with the water
that dripped from her stringy, wet hair.
She sobbed helplessly and with horri
fied eyes was still Avatching the turtle,
which had stopped in his tracks and
was leering at her, when she heard
Ned's voice. Never had anything
sounded so good to her ears.
"Do you love me, Anne?"
How one will suffer for pride's sake!
She turned her face toward him, un
mindful of teal's:
"I hate you!" she sobbed.
"All right," he called cheerfully "I'll
Just paddle around a little, and when
you're ready you call, and I'll come. As
I said before, the snakes won't be apt
to bite unless you should happen to
step on them or something."
He turned the canoe and took a doz
en strokes, feeling like a beastly cad
every time the paddle touched the wa
ter. Then a voice, wild and desperate
with fear, shrieked:
"Ned, come back!"
"Coming." he called. "Wait, Anne."
But Anne, terrified beyond endur
ance by the advancing turtle, ran into
the water, and he pulled her, a drip
ping, sobbing, disheveled figure, into
the shelter of the canoe and his arms.
"You'll never regret it, Anne," he
said softly.
"But you will," she sobbed. "I'll—
I'll lead you an awful life!"
a in It to he a
Some queer things are done by
thoughtless persons who try by descrip
tions to supply the lack of a definite
address for their letters.
One such letter was directed: "To my
sister Jean, up the Canongate, down a
close, Edinburgh. She has a wooden
leg." Jean safely received her brother's
communication.
Another queer letter provided no diffi
culty at all for the postman. It was
superscribed, "This is for the young
girl that wears spectacles, who minds
two babies, 30 Sheriff street^ off Prince
Edward street, Liverpool."
Another was addressed, "This is for
her that makes dresses for ladies that
live at tother side of rode to James
Brocklip, Edensover, Chesterfield."
This, too, was delivered.
The following specimen, however,
proved too much for the mail carrier.
It could not be delivered: "E. R—, a
cook as lived tempery with a Mrs. L.,
or some such name, a shoemaker in
Castle street, about No. 20 Hobern, in
1851."
"She is a Welsh person, about five
feet and stoutish, lives in service some
ware in London or nabourede Lon
don," was the superscription of a let
ter that recently passed through the
general postoffice. To pick that short
and stoutish Welsh person out of some
7,000,000 people was a task at which
the officials threw up their hands. The
missive had to go to the dead letter of
fice.—London Weekly.

Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson were passen
gers in an elevated train.
It whizzed past a house that was bril
liantly lighted.
"I wonder what was going on there,"
ejaculated Mr. Ferguson.
"It was a wedding," replied his wife.
"Didn't you see them standing before
the preacher? He was in a white gown.
The groom was in full evening suit.
The bride wore a robe of chiffon cloth,
with bertha and yoke of duehesse lace
on the bodice and lace flounce on the
skirt. She had a full length tulle veil
and carried a bouquet of lilies of the
valley. Where were your eyes?"
Mr. Ferguson, realizing his utter
worthlessness, resumed the reading of
his paper and said nothing—Chicago
Tribune.

Washington. Feb. 24.—The president
Thursday issued a proclamation con
vening the senate in special session at
12 o'clock noon on March 4 next to "re
ceive such communications as may be
made by the executive."
Washington, Feb. 25.—As a result of
several conferences at the white house
President Roosevelt allowed it to be
understood that he proposed to call an
extra session of congress about Octo

have a session earlier than that time.
Washington, Feb. 21.—The house on
Monday, after a seven hour session,
passed the naval appropriation bill,
carrying a total of $99,914,359. The
provision for two battleships, as re
ported by the committee on naval af
fairs, was retained. Several times
during the debate the assassination of
Grand Duke Sergius was referred to,
the subject being brought up by Mr.
Baker (N. Y.), who condemned the
action of President Roosevelt in send
ing a message of condolence to Russia
expressing the sentiment that the gov
ernment and American people viewed
the act with abhorrence. The people,
he declared, did view with abhorrence
the massacre in St. Petersburg on Jan
uary 22, but the president, he said,
had not seen fit to send a message of
condolence on that occasion.
In the senate the house managers
in the Swayne trial rested their case
and the defense opened.
Washington, Feb. 22.—The house on
Tuesday passed the Philippine tariff bill,
practically as it came from committee,

emy appropriation bill and began con
sideration of the Indian appropriation

impossible to secure railroad rate legis
lation during the present session of con
gress.
Washington, Feb. 23.—After a brief
but spirited debate, the house on
Wednesday sent back to conference the
army appropriation bill. All senate
amendments again were disagreed to.
with the single exception otone appro- in
priating $95,000 for continuing the cable
from Valdes to Seward, Alaska. The
balance of the day was devoted to con
sideration of the river and harbor appro
priation bill.
The senate considered at some length
the bill providing a civil government
for the Panama canal zone. Washing
ton's farewell address was read by Sena
tor Perkins at the beginning of the ses
sion.
Washington, Feb. 24.—Without a dol
lar being added or subtracted, the river
and harbor appropriation bill passed the
house Thursday, after the session had
run well into the evening. The total
amount carried by the bill is $17,234,657.
The military academy appropriation
bill was sent to conference.
The last of the testimony in the inter

proceeding against him. was presented
to the senate. The bill providing a form

zone was passed.
Washington, Feb. 25.—In the house
of representatives Friday the fight of
many years waged against the appro
priation of $180,600 for rental of the
old New York custom house, resulted
in a victory for its opponents.
The time of the senate was divided
between the Swayne impeachment trial
and the motion of Senator Eeveridge
to appoint conferees on the joint state
hood bill. No action was taken on the
latter.

Warsaw, Feb. 24.—The situation here
is causing the greatest anxiety in all
circles. The assistant to the governor
general frankly admitted that the gov
ernment is at a loss to know what to
do. Alarming reports are current con
cerning the intention and plans of the
revolutionary party, and March 4 is
awaited with much appi»ehension. The
strike agitation is spreading in every
direction, and bank clerks, journalists,
office servants, printers, drivers and sta
tionary engineers and mechanics in gen
eral are all threatening to strike. The
strikers are resorting to violence. They
have destroyed the great switchboard
station outside the city and cut a number
of telegraph wires. Western Poland is
completely cut off from communication
with middle and western Europe except
by telegraph.
Preparing for Inauguration.
Washington, Feb. 25.—Washington
has begun to assume holiday attire in
honor of the approaching inaugural
ceremonies. Flags and buntings are
being flung from the fronts of build
ings, especially along historic Penn
sylvania avenue, over which the parade

rapidly rising along the avenue, cov
ering the entire line of march from
Seventeenth street to the capitol.
