CHAPTER VIII. (Continued.)
Hero was another Issue of Nemesis, the
curso o another illfe through bis coming
back from the edpo of the water. Itl the
crush of KelMiatc, he atnllod at the wom
an. Until a moment ago the
wrecking work of the morning had put
thoughts of Soronia from his iniuil. He
had come to the shop partly to marshal
his final resources In an out-of-the-way
spot nnd arrange the last line of action,
and partly to avoid the possibility of ar
rest for the moment in caso the Panther
had brought an emissary of the law. Ills
end was a matter of hours nt best; his
cruising and his friendship with Consta
ble were over. Saint Pierre, of the lesser
islands, was the- last station of his trav
eling. During three days he had passed
many hours In the shop. What those
"hours had accomplished was dramatically
revealed now in the anguish of the maid
en as she waited for the answer to her
question.
"I have been thinking a great deal fdnce
yesterday. 1 found that I couldn't do
what 1 tried at least, without seeing
you Again, Sonoria." Breen spoke vague
ly, lie had sufficient honesty not to be
deft with the forces he was now employ
ing. "The future, I cannot tell yet. I
may have to leave Saint Pierre for
awhile, but I shall leave my heart here,
and if I live I will come back ! To-day
I must see my friend and tell him that
I cannot cruise farther south with hira."
She would have fallen had he not held
her,but her eyes were shining. The old
man ran for restoratives. Breen would
have put the girl into a chair, but she
clung to him.
' "I have waited for you so long, my
maker of pictures," she whispered.
Pere Rabeant, stood beside them with
medicines. The veneer of shop servitude
was gone from the gray old face. The
sharp black eyes were directed steadily
upon the stranger, who saw that they
were ready to soften or burst into flame
Breen saw, too, that he was less in the
presence of the father of a creole girl
of Martinique than the father of an old
world household,
"I am waiting for you to speak, mon
sieur," said Pere llabeaut.
"You have not waited long, sir," Breen
answered. "It wns just an instant ago
that I had the honor of hearing from
your daughter's lips that she would wait
for me until I could come back perma
nently to Saint Pierre'
"I know you will forgive an old sol
dier of France. So many people do not
understand don't try to understand
that I deemed it a privilege to marry the
mother of the maid in your arms not
because a governor general of Martinique
was her father but because she was wor
thy the worship of an old soldier of
France. The girl is like her mother,
monsieur."
"It ia an honor I do not deserve, sir
the daughter of a country woman of Jo
sephine and a soldier of France," said
Breen, grateful that one of his utter
ances contained or covered no lie.
The bow from the veteran was a gra
cious thing, fie held a glass to the Hps
of his daughter.
"1 do not need it now, father," Soronia
feaid softly.
There was a knock at ihe door. The
maid hastened to her room, and Pere
Itabeaur. once more the master of the
shop, greeted a gasping patron. Breen
was left to his thoughts. That
which he had done was unchangeable.
"Nicholas Steinbridge, rejoice 1 this is
your wedding day I" he muttered. "What
a time you've had down the years I You
have lived Jong and freely, taxing what
you saw a'nd daring consequences and
prattling like a defective to keep up your
epiriu! Nick, do you recall the prime
sentence of your philosophy 'There is
nothing which Doctor Death cannot
cure'2 Isn't it a wonderful paying? So
wonderful that it has exceptions! No,
Death will not put Peter and his lady out
to sea! - 1'he police are after
you : your lips are hot with lies ; you sit
In the gloom. Nick Steinbridge, you are
whipped, cornered. You go out a coward
and a liar. Where is your laugh of yes
terday?" And yet he smiled at the perfection
of the pride-humbling trap the Fates had
laid for him this day ; smiled at the words
he had uttered to Soronia and her father,
who bad bristled into a soldier of France.
And yet there had been no other way.
After what he. had done to Constable, it
was not in him to deprive Soronia of
what she seemed to need not under her
.pitiful eyes! His own part did not enter.
He conjured no golden haze as the mate
of this creature of ardor, fragrance, and
gentleness. Nor, on the other extreme,
did he reflect that to spend one's days
in a torrid shop with a woman of black
blood was a fitting end for a brutalized
life.
He put the woman out of b!s mind,
and turned to the sorry business of the
wounded friend. lie must find Consta
ble and say the last words; then take the
blame from his friend in the presence of
the women. If he were takeri Into cus
tody on the way there was no help for
that. All remnants of justice and wblte,
manshlp demanded that he set out at once.
Ue hurried to the court.
"Soronia," he called, "I'll have to go
now. Mr. Constable expects to leave
with his ship to-day, and I must talk
with him before he goes.'V
She appeared In the dress in which he
had first seen her. There were tender
remonstrances which ho scarcely heard,
.but he answered gently. His raJpd was
'with th- man.
"And you will be back this afternoon?
In the hollow of the universe there
seemed no reason that ho could utter why
he should not be back that afternoon.
"Yes, little fairy," he answered.
'And I shall watch from the .upper
window. If the sinoko clears, for your
Trlend'H h!p to pail. Ah, don't
etay long from me J"
The sun could uot shine through the
Mh-fog which shut out the harbor dla-
tances and shrouded tho great, cone, but
volumes of dreadful heat found the earth.
Tnough tho .Madame lay well in the har
bor, sho was Invisible now, even from the
terraces. There yas no line dividing tho
shore from the sea, nor the sea from the
sky. It wns all an illimitable mask,
whose fabric was the dust which had lain
for centuries upo.n Pcleo'a dynamos.
There was no carriage for hire. The
day had driven the public drivers to cover.
Urecn walked to tho plantation house.
Tho servant was long In answering his
Ting. Mr. Wall was in the hallway. The
fall from guest to an cm?my of the house
pulled hard upon Brecn's philosophy.
"Come in, sir," said Uncle Joey. Ills
tone was repressed as he added: "Had 1
known your address, I should have sent
your effects to you."
"I wasn't thinking about that, but look
ing for Mr. Constable," Breen declared.
"You aro Nicholas Steinbridge?"
"Yes."
The elder man stared at him savagely.
"Don't you think you have done enough
damage?"
"More than enough, Mr. Wall; but
there remains, from my point of view, an
unfinished sentence."
"He is not here."
"Then I need trouble you no further."
Breen had not the heart that-Jnstnnt
to ask to sec the ladies. At the pier he
learned from Krnfit, who had charge of
the launch, that Mr. Constable was not
aboard tho ship, and hnd given up the
idea of sailing for the day, apparently.
At the Roxelnne, Breen found that Con
stable had made his way beyond toward
the Itiver Blanch, which had flowed black
and boiling yesterday. At tho Hotel de"s
Palms there was definite word of M. Con-,
stable, American. Tho proprietor bore
witness that the gentleman had stopped
at the establishment long enough to pro
cure food, mules nnd guides the last at
great cost, since the natives were in dead
ly fear for a trip to the craters of Pe
lee. CHAPTER IX.
The morning which broke through the
defenses of Breen, and crumpled the dear
est purpose of Constable, also drew Miss
Stansbury into the vortex of intense emo
tions. Whatever dominant traits and im
pulses she had Inherited from her mother,
it had been her self-training to repress.
Ample opportunity had been afforded her
to note in her mother the career of an In
domitable mistress of affairs. The result
of her observations was a positive distaste
for stiffness, of views in any sphere, and
a conviction that the display of master
fulness in woman did not make for wom
an's happiness.
As a girl, it had not occurred to Lara
to exert an authority counter to her
mother's. When she became a young wom
an she carefully avoided any extremity
which might lead to the breaking of
either her own or the more visible will
of the house.
Now, in the midst of painful develop
ments, it was borne home to Lara that
she had progressed too far in the way of
amiability; that she hud unconsciously
outstripped her intention, and passed into
the boundaries of self-effacement. In tho
crisis of the newspaper revelations, she
had followed her mother's initiative with
out question. The creature of indecisions
that she had become grew more and more
odious to her as the forenoon passed, and
in her contrition she realized that the
man whose first wish was to spare her
from harm had been repaid with a lack of
courtesy and a greater lack of courage.
Nothing that she had said or done, it
seemed to her now, carried the stamina of
decision. She had implored him not to
speak; she had run from him, like a
frightened child to her mother, when he
had told bis love and begged her to seek
safety aboard his ship. In none of her
dealings had she shown the strong wom
anhood which marked her ideals; and in
singular contrast stood out his gracious
nesl and patience. The thousand little
things in which she had subserved her
own inclinations to the maternal will had
dulled the delicate point of personality,
without which a man cannot stand val
iantly through the crux of harsh days.
It was all plain now, so hideously plain.
The chief of the acts she regretted had
to do with the morning Itself. What
manner of "friendship" was this which
accepted as authoritative the testimony
of a newspaper's suspicions? She had
dono more than this, in handing Constable
the document that witnessed against him,
and shutting the door Upon his possible
defense. There was an added poignnncy
in the knowledge that her mother would
not have thus used one of her favorites.
Her distaste for the American caused
Mrs. StansbHry so readily to accept news
paper evidence as a triumph of her judg
ment. As if such thoughts of wretched
ness were not sufficient to start tears of
vexation, IiraB mind finally added to the
inventory of its miseries by reverting to
her conversation with Constable in the
carriage on the day of his arrival. How
she had berated the essayist for declar
ing that the stuff of friendship stirred not
womankind! How rigorously he had
agreed with her!
Sho sought her own room when the tu
mult mounted to the point of tears. Pres
ently she went to the door and locked it,
for the inevitable thought had come. What
did tho name of Peter Constable mean to
her? She had felt his strength. Ixmg
ago she hud dreamed of such atrengtlr and
put the dream away. Whether or not he
was to be tho conqueror,' she kuew that
mastery like his could rouse her heart.
She was "evading the substance of the
qWsMon. Before the mirror she frowned
severely fit the Lara there.
"Tell me this," said the woman, "do I
want him to go away?"
"No, no I" said the image.
"No," repeated the woman? "not Jf he
be innocent." . ..
The Image scowled at her conservatism.
"You deserve tov suffer. You sept him
away without a tithe of your trust, with
out a morsel of your mercy,
Standing In the upper hallway, she J
hoard what passed" between Breen and
tho planter at the front door. Why did
not Uncle Joey demand extenuating cir
cumstances? Sho was s'uro that Breen
would have dropped somo hint, at least,
of Constable's part in tho mysterious al
liance, had It not , been for tho barbed
iron of tho other's words. Lara's palms
ached from the pressuro of her nails.
Sho did not go downstairs to luncheon
but often crossed tho hall, entering Con
stable's room to look at the mountain and
cityward along tho smoky highway. In
ono of these watches sho saw the llttlo
black carriage of Father Damlcn-np-proachiug.
Ho would have driven by, but
sho ran below and called to him from the
vecanda ;
"Como in and rest a minute, father. Is
there any good to toll?"
"Very little, Lara. Tho gray curse Is
on Saint Pierre, indeed. I have grown
afraid for my people, and am warning
them to seek refuge In Fort do France.
Your guest suggested this step, and has
helped nobly with money to caro for the
people fleeing to the capital."
Sho drew from him nn account of hi.,
meeting with Constnble on tho highway
In tho morning. He told her, too, how the
young man had sent sick native mothers
and their children out to tho ship for
refuge from tho heat and sulphur fumes,
nnd of the largo sums of money he had
volunteered for tho care of the favored
few who fled to Fort do France. Lara
bent her head forward toward the priest.
"And what do you think of tills man,
father?" she questioned suddenly.
Tho old man's mild gaze fell beforo the
glowing eyes of tho girl. "I did not
think when I first met him that he was
gifted with such zeal.", he answered
weakly.
"Where Is ho now, Father Da mien?"
"That I cannot tell, dear. We have
not seen him since morning. Some say
that he has gone to Morno Rouge ; others
that he has ascended to the craters of
Pelee."
She sprang up, but repressed the ex
clamation upon her lips. Her mother had
entered.
"Good morning, Fnther Damlen," Mrs.
Stansbury said pleasantly. "Is Lara re
hearsing private theatricals for you?"
The priest made haste to depart, sayln?
that he was on the way to Fort de Franco
with the money Constable had given, to
make the refugees there as comfortable
as possible. The ladles followed him to
the door. It happened that the qld man
faced Lara as he said:
"I hope It may be n false rumor Ilia
your friend has sought the craters of
Pelee. Such services as his we. cannot
nfford to do without. There iu power In
the man "
"I think. 1 have felt It, father," tho
girl answered quietly.
"What docs this mean, this talk ot
'friend' in connection with the confrere of
a thief?" Mrs. Stansbury asked.
"I did not quibble in the use of the
word "
"Do you count as a friend one who
wpuld try to put you aboard a ship which
bears the reputation of the Madame de
Stacl? one who would bring to our house
the notorious Nicholas Stembrldge?"
"You were also Invited to go, remem
ber." "My dear child, yon arc overwrought.
I cannot believe that you are appealed to
by this sudden interest of his In your wel
fare; nor that you dreamed of accepting
terms that would have frightened our
Domrcmy saint who braved wars."
"I do not like your talk of terms, moth
er. There were no terms. Mr. Constable
asked me to board bis ship, that I might
be safe. His care for my welfare is not
important in this talk."
"Do you think you would be safe to go
with him?'
"Safe as the sea safe as the black
women and their babies now crowded up
on the terrible de Stael ! I do not care
to talk further. You have followed your
inclinations regarding Mr. Constable, and
until now I have allowed your Inclinations
to be mine. I am guilty as you are of
outraging the sensibilities of a man who
deserves at least the consideration of a
gentlewoman. I shall learn the truth
about these reports, and if they aro as
false- in substance as I believe, I shall
make up for my incivilities."
Mrs. Stansbury felt that here was a
resistance no less formidable than sudden.
It must be crushed, of course, but the
present moment was not propitious. She
laughed gently.

Spoiled Their Waltzing.
In her memoirs Mine, do Bolgne
gives some interesting Kllmpsqs of Eng
lish Bocinl life. For Instance, sho
writes :
"In 1810 no young English lady ven
turcd to waltz. The Duke of Devon
shire returned from n tour In Germany
and observed one evening at n large
ball that a woman wiib never seen to
better ndvantngo than when waltzing.
I do not know whether he was anx
ious to piny a trick, but he repeated
this assertion several times. It was
passed from mouth to mouth, nnd at
tho next ball all the young ladles were
waltzing. The duke admired them
greatly, said that it wns delightful nnd
gave proper animation to u bull. He
then added carelessly that he, at nny
rnte, had dofcided never to marry a
lady who waltzed. It wns to the
Duchess of Richmond nnd at Curlton
House that ho w fit tp make this
revolution. TliOfoor duchess, the most
clumsy of matchmaking mammas, near

repented the statement, to her neigh

Tlio Diinrcr In Water.
So much hns iteen written on tho dan
ger of Impure drinking water, nnd so
many epidemics of typhoid fever have
been traced to this
source, that it seems
almost needless to
utter n warning
against the nso of
"raw" wnter when
there Is tho slight
est suspicion that
such water may not
be absolutely pure.
Yet so strong Is tho
forco of conserv
atism nnd so Impatient arc many with
tho seeming overcnutlousness of mod
ern sanitary teaching thnt the warn
ing, and the reasons for It, cannot be
too often repented. If such warning
Is heeded by only one family, and n
visitation of typhoid fever Is thereby
nvcrted, It will hnvc been well' worth
Thlle.
The wnter supply of every largo city,
taken from a river, n lake, or n number
of streams, unless there Is a system of
sand filtration nt the reservoir, Is never
absolutely snfe. A single case of ty
phoid fever on the banks of the river,
or of nny of the smnll streams which
contribute to the supply, may contam
inate the water and give rise to other
cases lower down on the stream ; and
tho aggregate of pollution In tho wnter
may jsoon render dangerotiB tho city
mpply to which It contributes.
The course of the underground wntei
flow Is so erratic that tho country dwell
er can never be sure that his well, how
ever securely situated It mny seem to
be, may not become fouled with scop
lngs from his own or his neighbor's
cesspool.
Typhoid fever, not to mention other
diseases which may be spread by means
of the wnter supply, Is. It should be re
membered, n country disease. It seems
to be n city disease, but this Is only be
cause there aro more people In n city,
nnd so the number of cases is larger,
and the number attracts attention. In
nlmost every case, the exceptions iK'Ing
so rnro that they need not be consid
ered, the Infection Is brought from the
country, either In the water supply or
In the bodies of those who got It while
staying in tho country by quenching
their thirst from "the old oaken bucket"
of Bcntlmentnl fnme.
There nre, It Is true, other means by
which tho Infection Is spread flies, for
example, which mny enrry tho germs

tho.most common modo of the sprend of
typhoid nnd dysentery Is through tho

One of tho most striking differences
in ship Ufo todny contrasted with
thnt of thirty years ago, arises from
tho .changed character and standards
of our enlisted men, says n writer In
the Army nnd Navy Life, Then, n great
many of tho enlisted men were for
eigners. In my first ship wero ninny
Scandinavians who could not speak
English and a great many of tho Amer
icans present wero upward of 40 years
old. To-day nil aro Americans nnd
a largo majority of tho ship's company
Is under 25 years qld. In tho old days
a seaman on liberty would frequently
roturn , to ship, overtime, drunk and
dirty. Many ofllcers did not regard
this with disfavor, for such a man
would bo deprived of shoro liberty for
tho following three months, nnd so
would always bo present for ship. work.
To-day a man would bo discharged as
undesirable who was guilty of such an
offense.
Our enlisted men nro splendid In
chnracter and In ambition; It Is n
plensuro to direct the enthusiasm that
these young men show In their work.
Many do not re-enlist, not so much
from n dislike of naval life, but from
the good shoro positrons thnt nro of
fered to them nfter their discharge
from the navy. Aboard ship they aro
trained to be expert nnd exact and
hnndlo n multitude of machines where
skill, steadiness and nervo are re
quired. Tho qualities hero developed
are valuable In civil life, nnci young
men with honorable discharges' from
the naval service find many desirable
opportunities on shore.
For the officers, I am proud to bo or
them. I know of no set of men of
higher standard of living nnd of a
moro devoted enthusiasm In tho worlc
they nro cnlled upon to perform.
