i li;ht and parsed over the confusion of
rails at tho Imminent risk of his life.
There, la no more dangerous jilaco on tlio
faco of tho earth, hut Dram was In a
condition of mind whom collision with a
KhlfltiiK engine would have been a re
lief to his feelings.
A freight train was being made up on
a blilo track, and Drano crawled aloiiK
In the Hliadovv of It till ho eatno to a car
which looked us If It miuht bo entered.
Ho was on tho point of trying It, u liuit
a flpuro appeared from tho slfadows.
Drano was about to run, but perceiving
that Iho other man had a similar inten
tion, ho understood the case at once.
"Hold on," Hald ho, "1 won't hurt
you. I'm looking for a free rldu on this
train, and ho are you. Isn't that ho?"
"Vou'vo eullcll It, boss," said tho fol
low, "that's my gamo."
"Well, I'm In with you," returned
Drano. "You know moio about this
business than I do. What shall wo do?"
Tho tiamp answerod by deeds, not
words, llo prlid open tho door of tho
car and crawled In Drano followed.
Tho car appeared to bo freighted with
pig-iron or bomo other heavy substance
of which very lltllu niadu a load, for
there was pionly of room. Drano and
his companion found the most comfort
able place thov could In the darkness.
To tlio forinor'B great relief the train
tvoon sui ted and ran with llo stop for
nearly an hour. Then there caim a halt,
l'rcsontlv Diane In .ml a man" stop just
outside Die door by which they had on

'Thunder and turf," whispered the
trump, "ue'in in for It now. They'll
Hond us u). There's Jimt otiorh moo for
us. You Stand on ono hide of tint door
and I'll sfand on llio other. When they

That was exactly what they did; and

Immediately af lor.

Thoio 11 an a hasty consultation, and

Drano told hlni.

There was Koine good-natured laugh

It w.c. utterly lmossihle for Drano to

xn4 lolent, He dragged lilin.wlf with
oui. illlilculty u thu 1'' f a ruck
(l itre an I made a hasty csumlu.illon.
whlih convinced llltu that no bono.,
were broken. Thoro was a soreness in
his throat and lungs which mado uery
breath ho drew socm full of throe-oor-noriil
tiles, but un the w hulii ho was In
fair condition and able to walk, which
was fortunate, as no other moans of get
ting away wore at baud.
Ileforo hlni was tho blazing barn,
now ono inSVsof lire, llo re II ec ted with
a hIiuiIiUt that iHThaps some jsior
wretch had perUlnsl thoro, and he be
gan to reproach himsolf for having
lnade no cllort to rescue those who had
boon his companions In misfortune.
Thou thu recollection of the way tlio
llanies had loapisl up oyer the hay as
sured him that lib need not charge him
self with cowardice. Ho ns'allisl the
fact that ho hail cllmliod up on tho lull
and that the others had remained (to
low, whoro doubtless they had been
awal.'ouisl while tho tiro smoldered, fill
ing tho Ixirn with that smoke which
had nearly boon tho death of him.
A crowd had now collectisl atMiut thu
barn, and ho decided to go down and
mliiglu with It. Ho did so, and tho Unit
words ho hoard wore- those' "Some
blamed tramp has set this barn afire
Kveryonoof 'em found In tho uounty
to-day ought U be put In Jull."
Drano did nut wait to discuss the
question, llo took a hasty and unccre-
Tcmli.u lcare. lor half mi hour he
I'loddisI through plow oil fields, and
climbed fciiii-v till at leliKth he came to
a factory of otm sort from which sever
al little branch railroad track t ran to
the main Hue near by I n ight cars
were iM'Ing loadisl there; slid Dram',
v.iti hlng his i huttcc. got ahojid of oho
umdwervrd. Un the top of a big hu
lie HUotchod his weary llmU and fell
asleep
Tho train was In mo. Ion when he
awoke It ran on for nearly an hour he
thought, without .'.toppltif Then came
a lot i f bumping and switching alut
followed by a prolon(rcil paioo l.lslen
ing he heard u strsngtt sound like the
plash of waves. Ho crept to the r.lde
nt iho car and found a drexlce through
which he peered. To his astonishment
ho found that he was sailing on a broad
river A great city lay to tho right, an.l
It did not take him long todbicover that
It was New York. Apparently the me
tropolis was a hard placo to gel away
I rem.
Tho float which bore the freight ears
was ptitdiisl against a pier. Drano stood
up and strotchisl his crauiHsl HnilM.
"This Isn't exactly a vostlhulisl jsilace
oar,'' he thought, "hut I have at least
cento through to Now York without
change, as Hie limc-Ublcft say," and ho
thrust his hands Into hlsentpty peckou.
Travel by frvlght-cnr without a hand
Isig has lut dliuidvautagcs and among
them fa tho lack of water, soup Mid a
chance to brush one's hair. Drano looked
out through the hole In the side of the
car and wondered whether, out of re
spect to cleanliness, ho ought to Jump
Into the dock. Then ho noted the color
of the water and decldisl that ho ought
not. However, he ivwlwd to glo an
Imitation of a good cltiien making his
toilet, so ho picked up a piece of btoki u
glass from the floor of tho car, and prop
ping It against a daub of ldai k (mint on
a box ho com hisl his hair w ith his hands,
lifter which hodeohlcd that he was ready
for breakfast. Hut the rolls and collco
didn't coiuu.
lly tho oxoroiso of discretion he t
caped from the car and from tho pier,
and stood again in tho streets of New
York. Thou initio more wandering,
morn hunger, moro perplexity. At
noon ho found himself in a park which
looked familiar. Ho dropped uMin a
bench and tried to decide whether it
was the ono where ho had sat with her.
Then ho askisl himself frankly whether
he would rather situ her at that minute
or a sirloin steak with fried potatoes
and a cup of colfee.
"I don't know,' Ito muttered, burying
his faco In his hands. "It's a hard tjuos
tlon. I must he In love."
Ho tlxisl his eym on the ground and
woudorisl why ho didn't Mud a half dol
lar there. No doubt thoro were coin
enough burbsl In the dust of New York
stroew to pay his way to Kansas City.
Why couldn't ho llnd one'. lie begun
U accuse his gut.rdlun angel of i rlous
neglect of duly. Shu ought ul b ust to
th tow enough In his way to get him
breakfast. Ho (Hiked around In the
little Ueaps of rubbish at tho ends of
the 1h ni b w ith the toes of his dilapi
dated shoes; but his guardian angel ap
parently hml no chango to spare, lie
lldu't tlud a K'iiny.
The only article which dilfered from
the general collection was a piivo of
pastolxiard w hlch lookisl like a tlieale r
heck 1 1 hail evidently Ir'oii dropped
wry leocnUy, for tt was scarcely .oilid
utall. llo remembered, w 1th a sudden
itart, that restaurants sometimes i.old
tlckeUt that were gmsl for a mi al. With
i hasty hand he i.nut'hod the piece of
paMeboanl from the ground and rood:
"This ticket entitles the liearer to one
I'lirklsh lnth at Hubbard's. No IW West
Tweiity-Kvonth street An extra
charge for alcohol or electricity."
This U tho way that l'au takes advan
tage of a man's position to insult him. It
was nut Drauo's fault that he had not
washed his face, and It was aggravating
to have a hint like this thrown out by
fate to embitter the results uf her own
iloltigs. Drano wits on the ioliit of tear
ing the ticket 111 rugu and disdain when
III bettor Judgment checked him A
Turkish bath-hotiso was a nice, unlet
placo toTost. It oilers the greatest of
luxuries on a hot day. True, a severely
tlHirotigh bath Is not a good thing to take
on un too empty stomach, hut still ho
was sure that It could not make him (eel
any more hollow than ho did without It
Hi arose and began his search for West
Twenty-seventh street. It was not far
away, and in loss than half an hour he
stood lu front of No. Vi. A handsome
building It was; terhaps a little too or
nate.but eminently siiggesllvo of Un

ticket at tho desk. The attendant
stared at hlni.
"How tin dlckous did you got this
ticket?" ho asked.
Then Drano saw that ho would have
to llo. llo was determltnsl to got inside
the bath now, and a small matter of
falsehood should not stand In hi ..: .
Ills moral sen no had been gradually
weakened by the evil coinpaiilorilit; ol
his clothes and ho was In a condition to
stretch tin fabric of truth's spotless
robe till ho spill It up tho back.

i dhati fi.r liliu; and he had no nooner
stretchiHt hluiwdf upon It than ho foil

Drano was awakeuisl by tho voice of
Iho man who hail occuplisl the dresnlng
room next to his. llo lookisl Us and
saw a welt-built young man so far as
the sheet In which ho was wrapped al
lowed his proirtlntis to bo seen -preparing
to take the next divan, i he
stranger was alout Drane's weljrht and

thing more scrlou.ii than tho powsalon
uf a goud llgure. tine face nan almost a
caricature of the other. Drano could
not belli thinking how much he should
huvo resembled his neighbor if his own
life throughout hail beeu llko tho last
few days.
The stranger ordered some breakfast,
and the attendant drew up a little tablo,
so that It stissl between Drain" and his
mom fortunate follow -ha her. In fact
ll was as near to one as the other.
"If Ito oatH right under my nose, this
way," sit Id Drano to himself, "I shell
1 woo in e a raving maniac."
A luxurious re pas', was ordered, and
thou thu stranger lay down upon the
divan and went to sleep He did not
awake when the attendant laid the
cloth nor even when the lunch was
brought. Some gentle shaking brought
him partly to his senses, so that he was
able to sit tryi and protend to bo awake,
bulwhiui thi' attendant weut away he
fell hack upon the plllowand was asleep
again in a tw Inkling. s
Then Drum- i stomach arose and road
the declaration of iudepcudenre. It
would hear no excuses; no reproaches of
