At noon the patient figure waa atlll waiting In the corner of the courthouse yard, meek ly twlatlng a coral ring upon ber finger. Hut the fluahed young man who bad poken thickly to bet deserter drew an arled roll of bank bill from bla pock et and began to bet with tlpey caution, while 'the circle about the gambler watched with fervid Interest, especially Mr. llardlork, town marshal. From far up Main afreet came the cry "She'a a-comln'l She' a -cumin!" and this announcement of the parade proving only one of a dozen false alarma a thousand dlaruMlona took place over old fashioned silver time piece aa to when "she" waa really due. flcboflelds' nenry waa mocb appealed to aa an arbiter In these discussions, from a aenae of bis having a good deal to do wltb time In a general sort of way, and thus Schoflelds' came to be reminded that It waa getting on toward 10 o'clock, whereas. In the eicltement of festival, be bad not yet struck 0. Tbla, rushing forthwith to do, he did, and, In the elation of the moment, seven r eight besides. Miss Helen 8herwood waa looking down on the mass of shift lag color from a aecend atory window f the courthouse, and ahe bad tba pleasure of seeing fkboflelds emerge oa the atepa beneath her when the belle had done and beard the cheer (led by Mr. Martin) wltb which the crowd greeted bla appearance after tbe per formance of hla feat ' ' ' She turned beamingly to ITarkleea. "What a family It is!" ahe laughed. "Just one big, jolly family! I didn't now people could be like tbla until came to Plattvtlla.". "That la the word for It," he aald resting bla band on the casement be aide her. "I used to think it was deso late, bnt that wm long ago." He lean ed from the window to look down. In hla dark check waa a glow the Carlow folks had never seen there, and some how he seemed less thin and tired than usual; Indeed, he did not seem tired at all, by far the contrary, and bo carried himself upright, when he waa not looping to see under the bat, though not aa If he thought about It "I be lieve they are the beat people I kuow," be went on. "Perhaps It Is because they bave been so kind to me; but they are kind to each other, too kind, good people." "I know," ahe aald, nodding, "I know. There are fat women, women who rock and rock on plauaa by the aea, and they apeak of country people aa the 'lower classes.' How bappy this big family la In not knowing It la the lower classes!" "We haven't read Nordau down here," aald John. "Old Tom Martin's favorite work Is The Descent of Man,' and Mias Tlbba carea moat for 'Lalla Eookh' and 'Beulah.' And why not?"

Lines of people rushed for (be street, and one look ed down on tbe big atraw bat and sue bonnets and many kind of finer bead apparel tossing forward they seemed like surf aweeplng up the long beaches, gbe was coming at laat The boy a wbooped la the middle of the street Dome tossed their arme to heaven, other expressed their emotion by somersaults; those moat deeply moved walked on their band, In tbe distance one aaw over tbe bead of the multitude tosalog banner and the moving crests of triumphal cars, where "cohort were shining In purple and gold." There waa another flourish of music, Then all tbe band gave aonnd, and, with the blare of brass and the crash of drums, the glory of the parade burst upon riattvllle. Glory In the utmost! Tbe Impetus of the march time music. tbe flare of royal banners, tbe smiling of beautiful court ladle and great silk en noble, tbe ewaylng of bowdah on camel and elephant and the awesome abnklng of tbe earth beneath the ele phant'a feet and his' devastating eye (every ona declared be looked the alarmed Mr. BUI Snoddy, stoutest dtl sen of the county, full In the face aa be passed him, and Mr. Snoddy felt not at all reassured when, Tom Martin aevere ly hinted that It was wltb the threaten ing glance of a rival); then the badi nage of the clown,' creaking by In bla donkey cart; tbe terriflo recklessness of tbe spangled hero who waa drawn along In a cage with two striped tigers the delight of ail tbla glittering pomp and pageantry needed evn more thun walking on your band to express. Laat of all came the tooting calliope, followed by ewnniis of boy aa It exe cuted "Walt Till the Clouds Roll By, Jennie," with Infinite gusto. When It bad gone Mias Sherwood's gase relaxed she bad been looking on a eagerly a any child and ahe turned to apeak to Harkless and discovered that he waa no longer In tbe room. In stead she found Minnie and Mr. Wll letta, whom be bad summoned from another wludow. "He waa called away," explained Llge. "He thought he'd be back before the parade waa over and aald you were enjoying It ao much he didn't want to apealc to you." "Called awayr Minnie laughed. "Oh, everybody sends for Mr. IUrklesa," "It wa a farmer nam of Bowlder," added Mr. Wlllett. "HI son Hartley 'a drinking again, and there ain't any on but Harkless can do anything with him. You let blm tackle a sick man to nurse or a tipsy feller to Jwindle. and I tell you." Mr. Wlllett went on, wltb enthusiasm, "be 1 at borne.

Something' happened !" There waa a swirl In the crowd be low. Men were running around a cor ner of tbe courthouse, and the women and children were harking after. They went ao faat and there were so many of thorn that Immediately that whole portion of the yard became a pushing, tugging, aqulrmlng Jam of people. "It's on the other side," said Llge. "We can e from the hall window. Come quick before these other folk fill It up." i ' ' They followed him acroa the build ing and looked down on an agitated swarm of faces. Five men were stand Ing on the entrance atepa to the door below them, and the crowd waa thick ly massed beyond, leaving a little semi circle clear about the atepa. Those be hind struggled to get closer and leaped In the air to catch a glimpse of what wa going on. Harklesa atood alone on the top atep, bla band resting on the shoulder of tbe pale and contrite and sobered Hartley. On the loweat atep Jim Bnrdlock waa standing wltb sheep ishly banging bead and between htm and Harkless the two gambler of the walnut sheila. Tbe Journalist held Id his hand the iniplementa of their pro fession. "Yes; give up every cent" ,be aald quietly.. "You've taken $36 from this lt Mand.lt over." ' ' . ' TlieTrien 'begun to edge flown closer to the crowd, giving little, swift des perate, searching looks from left to right and right to left and moving nerv ously about like wessel In a trap. "Close ' up, there," said Uarkles. "Don't let there out." "W'y ain't we git M square treat meat beret' one of tbe gambler whin ed.

You fotter prove It was g kin. , W risked our money fir." .; U t'i f "Prove It? Come np here, Epb Watt.

"Ilia best way la to pick' np the ball with your second finger and tbe back part of your tbumb, aa you pretend to lay -tbe shell down over It this way." He Illustrated and showed severs I method of manipulation wltb professional sang frold, and a be made plan tbe vulgar swindle by which many bad been duped that morning there arose au angry and threatening murmur. "You all see," aald Harklesa, raialng bla voice, "what a almple cheat It le an old. wornout one. Yet a lot of yon lost your own money on it and then stood by, staring like Idiots, and let Hartley Bowlder lose 8d, and not one of yon lifted a hand. How hard did yotf work for what these two cheap crook took from yon? Ah," he cried, "It la because yon were greedy that they robbed yon so easily I You know It' true. It' when yon want to get aomethlng for nothing that tbe 'con fidence men' steal tbe money yon aweat for and make you the laughingstock of tbe country. And yon, Jim Bard- lock, town marshal; yon, who con fee that you "went In tbe game 00 cent' worth' yourself HI face wa wrathful and atern a be raised bis ac cusing band and leveled It at tbe un happy municipal. Tbe town marshal amlled uneasily and deprecatlngly about blm and, see ing only angry, frowning brows, bear Ing only word of condemnation, passed bla band unsteadily over bis fat mua tacbe, ahlf ted from one leg to the other and back again, looked up, looked down, and then, an amiable and pleaa- ore loving man, beholding nothing but accusation and wrath In heaven and earth and wiahlng nothing more than to alnk Into tbe water under the earth, but having oo way of reaching them, and finding bl trouble quite unbearable and himself unable to meet the manifold eye of man, be Bought re lief after tbe unsagacloua faablon of a larger bird than be. Hla burly form underwent a eerie of convulsions not unlike sobs, and he abut his eye tight and held them ao, presenting a picture of misery unequaled in tbe memory of Ton, you, a man. elected fo" any apectator. Tbe editor' outstretch ed hand began to shake. "You," be tried to continue; "you, a man elected to"- There came from the crowd the aound of a sad. high keyed voice drawling, "That's a nice vest Jim's got on, but It ain't hardly the feather fltten for an ostrich, la It?" Harkless broke Into a ringing laugh and turned to the shell men. "Give up the boy's money. Hurry." "Step down here and git It laid the one who had spoken. There wua a turbulent motion In the crowd, and a cry arose: "Run 'em out! Ride 'em on a rail! Tar and feathers! Run 'em out o' town!" "I wouldn't dillydally long if I were you," aald Harklesa. A roll of bills was sullenly placed In hi hand, which b counted and turned over to the elder Bowlder. One of the shell men clutched the editor aleeve with his dirty hand. "We hain't done wl .youse," he aald hoarsely. "Don't belief It not for f minute, see?" The town marshal opened hla eyea briskly and, placing a hand on each ot the gamblers, aald, "I do hereby arrest your said persona and declare you my prisoners." The cry arose again louder: "Run 'em out! String 'em up! Hang 'em! Hang them!" And a forward rush waa made. "Tbla way, Jim. Quick!" cried Hark lesa, bending down and Jerking one of the gamblers half way up tbe step "Get through tbe ball to the other side and then run 'em to tbe lockup. No one will stop you that way. Watts and I will hold this door." . ' . Bnrdlock huetled his prisoners through the doorway, andherowdj?uahe4. up fla sHiiTtTnTeTIailTcia iTFuggTeJ To hsep tb vestibule clear until Watt gut tb double doors closed. "Stand back, there!" be shouted "If all over. Don't b foolish. The law 1 good enough for os. Stand back, will too?" He wa shoving vigorously with open nana ana elbow, when compact little group of men suddenly dashed op the step . together, and a heavy stick wung out over their head. A wtraw hat with a gay ribbon sailed through tbe air. Tbe editor's 1000- arms went out swiftly from bl body In several flirecuona, the bends not open, bnt clinched and bard. Tbe next Instant be and Mr. Watt stood alone on tbe steps, and a man wltb a bleeding, blas pheming mouth dropped bl stick and tried to lose blmsrlf in the crowd. Mr. Watt wa returning something be had not need to his hip' pocket "Prophet of Israel!" eiclalmed Wil liam Todd ruefully. "It wasn't Epb Watts' pistol. Did yon see Mr. Hark lesa? I waa up on them atep when be begun. I don't believe be need aa mnch takln' care of aa w think." "Wasn't it ooe of them Crossroads devil that knocked bl bat off?" aaked Judd Bennett "I thought I see Bob Bkillett run up wltb a club." Harkles threw open the door be hind him. Tbe ball wa empty. "You tny come In now," be aald. "Thi lan'l my courthouse." CHAPTER VI. HEY walked (lowly back along the pike toward the brick bouse. He waa stooping very much aa they walked. He wanted to be told that be could look at ber for a thousand year. Tbe email face waa rarely and exqulattely mod eled, but perhaps Just now the salient characteristic of ber beauty (for the salient characteristic seemed to be a different thing at different times) wa the coloring, a delicate glow under the white akin, a glow that bewitched him In Its seeming to reflect the rich bene diction of the noonday un that biased overhead. Once be had thought the way to tbe Briscoe homestead rather a long walk, but now tbe distance aped malignantly. Strolled they never ao slow, It wa lea than a "young bird's flutter from a wood." With ber acquiescence be rolled a cigarette, and abe began to bum light ly the air of a song, a song of Ineffably getftle, alow movement , That and a reference of tbe morning and perhape the amell of hi tobacco mingling with tbe fragrance of her rosea, awoke again the old reminla cenc of the night before. A clearly outlined picture rose before blm-the high green slopes and cool cliff walla of the coast of Maine and tbe sharp little estuary wave he lazily watched through half closed lids while tbe pale amoke of bl cigarette blew oot under tbe rail of a waxen deck where be lay cushioned. And again a woman pelted hla face with baodfuls of rose petals and cried: "Up. lad. and at 'em! Yon der la Winter Harbor!" Again he eat In the oak raftered casino, breathless with pleasure, and beard a young girl k'ng the "Angel' Serenade," a young girl who looked so bravely unconscious of tbe big, bushed crowd that listened, looked ao pure and bright and gentle and good, that be had spoken of ber as "Sir Galahad's little sister." He bad been much taken with this child, but be bad not thought of her from that tlm? to this, be supposed. He bad al most forgotten ber. No! Her face suddenly stood out to his view aa though be saw her with hla physical eye, a sweet and vivacioua chlld'a face, with light brown balr and gray eyea and a abort upper Hp like a curled rose leaf. And tbe voice He stopped abort "You are Tom Meredith's little cousin." "Tbe great Harklesa," abe answered and atretched out ber band to blm. "I remember you." "lan't It timer "Ah. bnt I "never forgot your he cried. "1 thought I bad. I didn't know who It waa I waa remembering. I thought it wa fancy, and It waa mem ory. I never forgot your voice, sing ing, and I remembered your face, too, though I thought I didn't." He drew a deep breath. "That was why" "Tom has not forgotten you," she said aa he paused. "Would you mind shaking hands once more?" he asked. She gave him her hand again. "With all my heart Why?" "I'm making a record of it; that's all. Thank you." ) "They called me 'Sir Galahad's lit tie sister' all one aummer because th great John Harklesa called me that You danced with me In tbe evening." i "Did ir "Ah," abe aald, shaking ber bead, "you were too busy being in love with pretty Mrs. Van Skuyt to remember a waits with only me! I waa allowed to meet you aa a reward for singing my very boat and you you bowed with the Indulgence of a grandfather and aaked me to dance." ; "Like a grandfather! How young I waa then! How" tJm change na!" "I'm afraid my conversation did oot make a great Impression upon you." she continued. "But It did. I am remembering very fast If you will wait a moment I will tell you some of the things you said." Tbe girl laughed merrily. Whenever ahe laughed he realized that It waa be coming terribly difficult not to tell ber bow adorable ahe waa. "I wouldn't risk It if I were you," ahe warned him. "because I didn't speak to you at all. I shut my Up tight and trembled all over every bit of the time I was danc ing with you. I did not sleep that nighC and I waa unhappy, wondering what the great Harklesa would think of me. I knew be thought me unutter ably stupid because I couldn't talk to dhim wordjhaj 1 htm. I wanted to send him word that CD ! "knew T TslTlHirea XTih. I couUiTt endure that he shouldn't know that I knew I bad. But be was not thinking of me to any way. He had gone to aea again la bl white boat the un grateful pirate, cruising with Mrs. Van Ikuyt" "How time doe change us!" said John. "You are wrong, though. I did think of you. I bave aT "Yea," be Interrupted, tossing her bead la airy travesty of the stage co quette, "you think ao I mean, you say o-oow. Away with you and your blarneying!" And ao they went through the warm noontide, and little be cared for the beat that wilted tbe fat mullein leave nd made the barefoot boy who passed by skip gingerly through tbe burning dust wltb anguished mouth and watery eye. Little be knew of tbe katydid that suddenly whirred Its mills of shrillness In the maple tree and sounded so hot hot hot; or that other that railed at the country quiet from tbe dim, cool shade round the brick bouse, or even tbe rain crow that sat on the fence and swore to them In tbe face of a unny iky that they should see rain ere tbe day were done. Little tbe young man recked of what he ate at Judge Briscoe' good noon dinner chicken wing and young roaa'n ear, hot roil a light as tb fluff of a aummer cloudlet and honey and milk and apple butter flavored 'like pice of Arabia and fragrant flaky cherry pie and cool, rich, yellow cream. Llge Wlllett wss a lover, yet be said be aaked no better tbaa to Just go oa eating that cherry pi till a tweet death overtook him; but railroad sand wiches and restaurant chop might have been set before Harklesa for all the difference It would have made to him..
