PATENTS - GOlTtLVY. BROTHERS. In a quiet street otT orifof the qn'.t square in the vklnity of Ilolborn. there i a tall gloomy house, with narrow dusty windows, a nd a massive double door, that etill hears a brass plate wit h the words "'Gourlay Brothers" enrared thereou. The lower part of the house was used n na office, but the blinds were rarely drawn up, the door seldom swung Lack fo the energetic push of customers, the onir p.i.ssHge echoed no hurried footsteps, and Eli Has-art, the clerk., was to all ap-ps-aranre the idlest man in Loudon, till one. came to know In. masters. The (Joiirlar Hrothers were rierer any busit-r thau their faithful old servant imver hurried, f.tirried or worried: never late nud nerer srarly. Every uioruinK at U u o'clock they entered their office to gether, mad their letters, glanced at the Time, left inst-ructiona for possible callers, nnd then went tv the city. They always took the same route; at eltTea they niliht be seen passing alor.p the s.iiiiiy hide of Caunou street, at half-past one t hey entered the name restau rant, anl sat jit the same table for luncheon. Wet or dry, aliude or shine, summer or winter, every work-in:; day for thirty year they had irone through the saiue routine, al ways excepting the month of September, when they tok their annnal holij.ty. Ttiey wero elderly men: John, tall, thin, melancholy lonWinc. with liht gray eyes, scanty rny hair and whiskers, and A inn-mi exjire.mion of drabness Jarrvading t.ii wliftjle face and faultlessly r.eat attire. Iv'r.t w:is fclu rttr, rounder, more cheer ful, aiwl generally warmer In color. His i-rvaitinir hue was brown, keen reddish yes that must have been merry once, rip auburu hair that time had not yet liiite- tran-tuuted to silver. acleau shared rulily face. and brown hands full of deuts and dimple. John was the elder; still be locked up t. Uoi;er with Krave respect, consulted Iii nt every subject, and never either in orout of business took any step without his advice and approval. And Roger was no l. ss ilefereutial; without any profes sion of aleetion. or display of ferlinp;, the Oouriay J'.rothe-rs dwelt tocelher iu li.iejftt frieutUhip and love: their life was 1 I'lii harmony, nnd during all the vf.'irs f their partnership no shadow Lad fallen Ix-i ween tlieni.and their public life was iis harmonious as their private inter oursc. I:t busin;ss they were successful, every s;HTiilation they niado prospered, everything they touched turned to Kold; I ;n their whole lives were spent la i;et t in;. not sind ice, they were believed, ind with reason, to be immensely wealthy. "Cdd. hard, stem, enterpris ing, "'men calle-d them; with an acute urM cf vision nnd A steadiness of purpose aily to be acquired by long and cloas ap plication lu l.iiiiut-s. Ui-seived in tnatiiier, slmjile In their tint's, economical iu their habits, the (iouilay Urotln rs were the last ir.ea ia il.e world to be su.(ected f sentiment, their In cs t he least likely to Contain even :hei;erriis of n mmance. And yet they (. i l not been always mere business ma I'hines, the sole aim nnd end of their ez iftt. ticj had liot always Wen money. Ia .-.trly years they had had brighter dreams, 11. .bier ntiiliit ions. At school John had distinguished bim--c'.f, nnd his brief university career gave lromisc. of a brilliant future. Roer had been a bright, anient Ikjt. with a taslo f jr mini': t lint was almost a passion, atwl r tsleut little short t.f geiiia-. With his lc-p eiirue.stnei-s, intense steailine.is tif purport., and clear vigorous intellect, f ilm could scarcely have failed to make a disi itiiruished lawyer. Roijer wasa bora artist, with a restless lofty ambition. Life tii-emed very, very bright for the brothers; there was nothing to prevent .-.nil everyfnins to assist each in following Lis inclination. lint in the very dawn of their career their father died, and they were suddenly reduced from affluence to actual poverty. Nothing remained from the wreck of a m.-r.rnificent fortune but the bitter ex perience that always accompanies such e verses. Fine friends failed them, flat terers lookeil coldly on their distress, those vi ho hud most frequently partaken of their lavish hospitality passed by on t he t her side. Not a friend remained in their adversity but one, und she had in-ib-ed tho will but not the power to help tll.-Tll. Th boys left college and tnmed their thoughts to business. It was hopeless to attempt to follow np their professions withun invalid mother and idolized only sister depending on them for support. Juliii securtd a situation as clerk iu n city warehouse. I:oj;er accepted a ilesk in the office of n.-rnard Russell, an old friend of bis father's. They movetl to cheap lodg ing, nnd for several years plodded on wearily, the only gleam of sunshine ia their altered home In-iug the occasional visit -i of Alice Russell to their sister. MauJe Ijourlay and Alice had been schoolfellows and friends; they usually spent their vacations together, and Alice felt the iu!sf.rtunethat Lad fallen on the family as if it had taken her own. But ske could do nothing except pay them flying visits, send trifling gifts of fruit ami rlovvers, and write pretty, sympa tLctii: notes to Maude. A few years of hardship and poverty told on Mrs. (iourlay's always feeble frame, still for her daughter's Mike she clung to life with n strange tenneiiy; but when Maude's lover, who Lad gone to A ustraiia to make his fortune, returned, not. wealthy, but sufficiently so to claim bis bride in her altered circumstauces, Mrs. fiourl iy seemed to have no other ob ject to live for. Maude's marriage was hastened, and the very day after the ceremony, the poor, weary, broken hearted mother died, (leorge Leslie took his wife hack wit h him to Sydney, and John and Rosier tJourlay were literally alone in the world. As it iu Utter mockery of their loss and loneliness, immediately after their moth er's deat Ii t he brothers inherited A small fortune. But it was too late for John to g bac k to his studies, too Iste for Roger to return to his piano; they hnd falleninto the groove of business, and John at least was seized with a feverish eagerness to turn his small fortune Into a larger one a:id beccnie wealthy. So t hey w ent into business on their own account .is lloiirlay Brothers, with the firm resolution of retrieving the position their father had lo?,and a veryfew years saw tl em estnbli-hed at W'hitier street, and fairly on the high road to fortune. Then one quiet summer evetiing, as they sat over their dessert, John opened ins heart to his brother and told him of his ii.Ms, dreams, and ambitions for the lot 11 re. "Yon will be surprised, and I trust plensed to hear, that 1 love Alice Russell," l.e said laying his hand on his brother's arm; '-1 cu Hardly remember the time when fche was not dearer to me than ail the world besides. The bitterest r art of our misfortune to me was that it separated j me from her, the ctily thing that has sus tained me through our lotisr struggle was j the hope of some day winning her: not h i :i or else can ever compensate me for the ruin of all my hopes and glorious ambi tions. I once dreamed cf besng famous, Roger; for her sake I put that liekind U.e, andhave grubbed for gold like a miser. We, Gourlay Brothers, are on the high road to fortune; I may aspire to the hand of Alice now!" "Surely, John," and the younger bro ther's voice was husky, and his hand shook as he took up his glass; "I drink to your success." "Thanks, brother. I shonld hare told you all thU before, I should hav con tided in you, but I feared troubling you on my account; you would have seen a thousaud shadows across my path, you would have been morV unhappy than I was myself. And now I want you to promise that it shall make no difference. We shall be Gourlay Brothers st ill." Roger stretched Lis hand across the table, and John grasped it heartily. "Gourlay Brothers to the end of the chap- . ter, old fellow, and may you be as happy as you deserve. God bless yon, John!" John's face became a shade or two paler with emotico,and be walked up and down the room a few times; then he stood h hiud his brother's chair. "Roger, you will think me very weak, very nervous, but I dare not speak to Alice myself. J could not endure a re fusal from her. I have never even given her the most distant hint of my feelings. I have not the slightest reason to suppose that she regards me as otLer t ban a mere acquaintance, at most as Maude's brother. Roger, we have always been friends as well as brothers stand by me in this; you are leas sty and more accustomed to women; see Alice for me, ask her to be my wife." "John, you're mad! Tou do not mean it?" "I do; it is my only chance. Plead for my happiness, brother, as I would plead for yours, I am a man of few words, but I feel deeply. A refusal from her lips would kill me; I could hear it from you." "As yon will, Jehu; I'll do my best," and Roer leaned his head cn his band, and shaded his face from the light. "I'll call on Alice to-morrow." The next day was the longest of John Gourlay 's life, a bright, warm, happy day, that made people, even iu the city, look g!nd and cheerful. He went about his business as usual, ate bis luncheon, aud walked home leisurely. Roer was standing at the window watching for hiui, and be kept his back to him when he entered the room. "Wei::" John said gently, "Well, Roger, have you seen her?" "Yes, I've seen her," and Rger fared round suddenly; "John, old fellow, it's no use!' "Brother:' and he lifted his hand as if to ward off a blow. "It's no ue," Roger went on in a hard voice, "she does not love you. She loves some one ele. Be a man, John, aud bear it, for there's no hope." One lowMiflrd groan, and then John Gourlay rung Lis brother's hand and walked steadily out of the room. What he snfT-T'd in the hours that followed no one ever knew, and wheo he appeared at the dinner table he was calm and felf possessed, but something had either come into his face or Kone out of it that altered him. But of the two Roger looked the mot unhappy. The blow had xeaily fallen most heavily on him. "Jack, old fellow, we're Gourlay Bro thers now to the end of the chapter," he said huskily. "I know you'll never marry, and neither will I," and somehow John felt that Ii Jrer meant what he said. . . Twenty-five years passed by, a quarter of a century of c haues and chances, and still the Gourlay Brothers held theeven teuor of their way. They were rich be yond their wishes or desires, and not al together unhappy in their solitary friend ship. Alice Russell seemed to have drifted completely out of their lives; her name was never mentioned, and whether she was married or dead they did not know. One morning, about the middle of Sep tember, they were walking along the King's road, at Brighton, whither they had gone for their annual holiday. Roger entered a "hop to purchase something, and John stood outside looking dreamily at the passers-by. Suddenly he stared and advanced a step, as a lady in an in valid chair was wheeled by. Chancing to look up she met Lis glance with a smile of recognition. "Mr. Gourlay, it surely is.it must be you. I am so glad to see you:' "And I to meet you," John said, with a courteous bow. "1 have not the pleasure of knowing ' "My name I am Alice Russell still," she. said frankly. At that moment Roger appeared. For an instant the blood for sook his ruddy face, while a hot crintson flush rose toAlice's pale cheek as she tried to stammer out some words of greeting. Roger was no less confused, and the ex pression of loth faces was a revelation to John Gourlay. He felt asif the world had suddenly drifted away from him and he was left solitary ia some unknown infinite space. But there was nothing of that ia his voice as heasked Alice for heraddresa, and jiermlssion to call upon her in the af ternoon; then taking his brother by the arm he led him away, and they continued their walk w ithout exchanging a single word alout the strange encounter. In the afternoon John called at Miss Russell's hotel, and ia a few moments he found himself seated beside herin a pleas ant sitting-room overlooking the nea. "Alice," he said, plunging into the sub ject at once, "do you rememlssr a conver sation yon had with my brother a long time ago?" " Yes, I remember, Mr. Gourlay," she said sadly. "He made a reqnest for me then which It was not ia your power to grant; I am come to make a similar one for him now. Roger loves you, Alice. He has loved you all these long weary years, thoush you will at least believe I did not know it then." "Poor Roger:" Alice said softly. 'You care aloat him? You will make him happy even at this late hour? Tell xne. Alio, that you love my brother?"' "Yes, Mr. Gourlay, I do. Why should I deny it? I have loved him always, though I did not know that he cared about me, and if the little life that is lelt me can make him happier, I will devote it to him gladly, proudly poor Roger! You see I am too old for pretenses, Mr. Gourlay, and I fear I am dying; therefore I tell you all." "Dying, Alice Ko, no! yon will live many years yet, I hope, to make my dear brolLer happy brave, loyal, great-hearted Roger. Iet me send him to you now, and. Alii'e.for my old and long affection's sake, make him liap-y. He deserves it., and that is the ouly way I can ever help to repay the devotion of bis life." "I love him," Alice replied simply, "I cannot do any more." In their lodgings John Gourlay found his brother pacing restlessly up and down. "Rocer, I've found out your secret and hers," hesaid. laying lot h his hauds on his shoulders: "loyal, faithful friend, go to her; shelovesyoti.sheis waiting for yon." "Poor Alice! how she must have suffered:-' "How we all have suffered! but it's nearly over now, Rogei- grief, pain, re gret. It's all clear and bright. Roger, dear friend, can you forgive me?" "Forgive you, John? Say rather caa you forgive ncf" "True to the last," John murmured, as he wrung his brother's baud. "Now, Roger, go to her; she is waiting for you. She loves you loves you, Roger! Good bye, and may you both be happy!"' Late that evening, when Roger Gourlay returned home, full of deep, quiet glad ness, he found his brother sitting in aa easy chair near the window, apparently Asleep. The full moon shone down on his pale face, and showed a smile oa his lips; his hands were clasped on an open book, that rested on his knee. The attitude was life-like, but at the very first glance Roger felt that his brother was dead. The doctors said he bad died of disease of the heart. Perhaps they were right. More people die of that malady than the world knows of. . THE GOLDEX CROSS. About the beginning of the late war, a man bent on weighty business, and bear ing important dispatches and a large sum of money about his person, found himself belated at night in one of the wildest and most thinly-populated quarters of A southern state. He was ia the heart of a dense wood, and not far from a deadly and treacher ous swamp. To lie down to rest would have lieon simply suicide: yet he was worn with fatigue and no habitation ap peared in sight. Dismounting, he led his horse by the bridle and tried in vain to discover by the sense of touch the road he should follow. "I must find some shelter for the night," be said. "The people hereabout have cot a very good reputation; but I am not afraid of men. and I do not fear swamp fever and scorpions. I'll call; there may be some oue within he-ring." On this he sent up a shont that proved his Iuuks to be in good condition, and fal lowed it by another aud another. After this third he paused and listened. A faint "hallo" seemed to echo his, aud in a moment more there appeared among the trees the figure of an old man who held a lantern in one baud and shaded Lis eyes with the i.ther. "Who is that?" cried the personage; "one of the boys?" "A stranger," said the traveler. "I'm lost in this confounded place. Can you tell me wherw I can get shelter?" Who are you and where do yon come from?" " "I came 'from farther north: traveling on business; my name is Hogan. I caa pay for auything I ask, and shall be thankful, too." "All ri-ht. Come along. My bouse ain't far cff." Aud turning ho tottered away into the darkness. The traveler put his hand upon the pis tol at his belt und followed him. A few steps forward, ami nmid a dense mass of foliage they made their way to the door of a hut. Within, a fire burnt upon a rude, hearth. Over it a girl crouched, idly looking into the emliers. "That's my darter," said the old man. "We're all alone here, and it's a poor place, and you're welcome. Walk ia; I'll see your horie is cared for." The girl looked up sharply, and looked down again with a flush on Ler face. The old man drew a broken chair toward tho blaze and lit a pine torch. "A lire is comfortable these damp nights if it is warm," be said. "Make some coffee and an ash-oake for us, Nan nie. The gentleman's hungry, no doubt." "I confess I am," said Ilogan, takingthe proffered chair. "And I do not know what I shonld have done to-night without your hospitality." Meanwhile, the girl, a handsome crea ture of seventeen, lazily prepared a meal. She moved slowly, but she did not do her work badly. The coffee (smelt well, and the ash-cake was brown. When it was done nhe sat apart and watched the men as they ate, ami listened to the old man's questions and the strang er's answers. Afterward she spread upon the floor a bed of straw and a blanket, aud glided out of the room.; "I hope you'll Meep well," said the old man. "Good night, sir." "Good tight," raid Ilogan, but he thought at the same time: "You seem to be a very hospitable old gentleman, but you have the fuce of a rascal:" Throwing off his eo.it hp stretched him self upon the !ed, and iu live minutes found himself fast sinking into sluuilier. The pine torch flickered on the wall, the emlK-rs died out in tho grate, when sud denly a hand rested on his arm and a voice whispered iu bis ear: "Stranger, I've got something to tell you." Hogan started np. The girl knelt be side him with her linger on her lip. "Get up," she said, "and pnt on your ccat. Tie sooner you nre oil the better. The old man lied when be said I was his daughter; he has gone for the lioys. He said to me just now, 'I've found out his business. He must have pleuty of money with him.' and I know whot he menus. There will be four of them here in halfan hour, and you arc a dead mini If you don't go now." Hogan started to his feet. Stitched ia his belt were several thousand dollars, and he remembered that he had chattered away almost indiscreetly, fancying the old man would kuow no more than he chose to telL "I'm a fool," he muttered, starting to his feet. "This is no silly jest, girl?" "God's truth," said the girL "I've seen Bights that would make you move faster than you're doing now if you had seen them. There get your horse and come. I'll show you which way to take. They'll kill me if they Miicct me; but I reckon I'll ward them off. Come." As in a dream Ilogan followed her. She led him by the hand through thick woods until they enme to a wide opening. "Mount," she said, "and rido that way. Make all the speed yoa can. I've done all I can to save your life. Jack Hogan." "God bless you," said he. "You know my name, I ee. If the time should ever come when I can do as luuch for you I wilL" . - "Perhaps,"he said doubtfully. "You have saved my life, child:" be said as he mounted bis horse. "It Ls a debt a nma don't forget iu a hurry. Lis ten; I swear that if I can ever do any thing for yon I will I swear on this." He drew a little golden cross from his breast and kissed it. "Keep it to remind me of the oath if I should forget it," he said, and pnt it into her haud. Then, as man rides for his life, he rode away and reached his destination in safety. Two years from that night Captain Jack Ilogan sat alone in his tent writing a letter home. There was some one at home who waited for these letters anx iously, and who wore them fondly in her bosom. Thoughts of her softened the soldier's heart. Glad, indeed, would he have been to leave war and all its cruel bcenes for home and peace home and her. Half the sentence in which he told her fo was written, when his servant's voice sounded in his ear. "Beg pardon, captain. There's a girl outside. Can she see you?" "A girl:" said the captain. "Yes; Eend her in. Some poor, starving creature, I suppose, for orders for rations." , Aud then he started to Lis feet and stood amazed and silent, for the ligure that glided in was thatoT the girl who had saved his life two years ago that night. She, for her part, drew from her bosom a little gold cross aud held it to ward him. "Do yoa remember your oath?" she said. He answered, "I do." "Then save my Dan's life as I saved yours two years ago." "Your Dan?" he asked. "Yes;.Dau Barton. He is to be shot to-morrow." Dan Barton, the spy, lay well guarded, not far away. It was Captain, ilogan who had detected him. On the morrow bi.s life would pay the forfeit. "And be is your Dan, poor girl?" said Captaiu Ilogan. "Sit down; try to be calm. Do you understand that it is out of my power to save him?" "No," the answered, " I understand you do not mean to keep your oath." "You mistake me. If I could I would." And at that moment a thought flashed Into his mind. His face turned pale. "Perhaps I can," he said. "If I can I will." "Yon promise?" she cried. ' " j "I will keep my oath," said he. She knelt and kissed his band. He drew it from her. "There are uo thanks to he given for the keeping of an oath," said he. , , Then she departed. When she was gone he tore to pieces the letter he had written and wrote on another page these words: Mr Darling: When you read these lines I shall Im dead. It is very hard to leave you. Remember poor ( Jack Hckjax. lie sealed it and lai 1 It where it would surely le seen aud then walked out into the night. "I must see this spy," he said to the sentry, who saluted and let him pass. Half an hour after the sentry saw him pass out, we'll muffled in his cloak. He was seen afterward by several other sen tries, who wondered why a lanu who miLt sleep did not. It was dawn. At sunrise they had brought the spy out to be shot a large musculxr man wit h black hair. A band age was about Ids eyes and bis hands were ltouud behind him. He kept his bead down, striving, it seemed, to hide his face. "I didn't think he was so handsome when 1 saw him before," said one officer to another. "He looked like a sneak, I thought. Who ia he like'" "I don't kuow," said the other. "Some one I have seen, certainly." Meanwhile the men who were to pnt an end to the spy's life formed into line. The chaplain read the prayer for the occasion. The order was given: "Fire:" V ' For a moment the air was filled with smoke; then it lifted. A man lay upou his face before them, dead. It was Jack Hogan. He had kept his oath. The spy had fled the camp.dresised in his uniform, the uiht before. He had paid for his life with hU life at last. THE KING COLOR. As Indicated by History and In Litera ture. It is ft crtrious circumstance that red, the unseen color of so many, is the favor ite color, and may be called the King col or of the normal eye. It was especially so in ancient times. If we examine the Bible we shall find that the Hebrews scarcely ever used color as an epithet, as we do when we say "t he blue sky," "the purple hills." They say. Indeed, "the Red Sea"; but blue is scarcely mentioned as seen ia nature, only in the "blue and purple and scar let" of the tabernacle hangings, or the high prie-t's robes, or the pavement, of the king's palace of "red aud blue and black and white marble" in the Book of Esther. Yellow, excepting as a sign of disease, is mentioned but once or twice; "her feathers like yellow gold." But red is largely spoken of as in later times, and perhaps as incorrectly, for we did not invent, we ouly inherit, the ex pressions, "red gold," "red wine," one of these Isjing merely orange, and the other a ruddy purple. "Red hair" is a modern, or rather mediaeval, inaccuracy; "red cow" we got from the ancients. These epithets all appear to show a cer tain fancy for calling things red as the more kingly aud costly color.

There may be found at some of the lake ports to-day, in case she was not knocked to pieces last winter for firewood, an old barge which was formerly a sidewbeel steamer plying the blue waters, and known as a favorite passenger steamer. She was at the zenith of her popularity in 1S70. In June of that year, on her third or fourth trip, there was levelojed a mystery which wns the beginning of her ruin. Thj particulars have several times L,een referred to by the press, but Vrhat is about to he related here comes di rect from her then captain, who should, above ail others, be well pobted in all tLe. details. s-ft The steamer left one of ber terminal ports aToout 1' o'clock at night. On this particular niiht to which we refer 6he had abont thirty passengeis, most of whom hnd rctirwd to their berths before she left port. - She was ouly about ten miles out when the occupant of stateroom Ko. 14, which contained only one berth, entered the cabin half dressed and iti a very n-ry temper, and sent chambermaids for the captain. "See here, sir!" he said to that o.Ticial when be responded to the call, "I can take a joke s well as the next man, but this is currying the thing too far:" "What do you mean? Who has b;en joking with you?" a-;ked the officer. "That's w hat I want to know. I was pcarcely in bed before some one entered the room. My coat and vest were pulled off the hooks to the floor, a chair upset, and t he pillow was pulled from under my head." , "It can't be," replied the captain. - ; 'But I tell you it was," be iersisted. "Do I look or act like a lunatic? Atn I drunk? Would I leave aiy room if there vras nothing wrong?" The captain entered the stateroom with Lim and lighted the lamp. The pillow vas oa the ilo ;r and the chair upst-t. There was 1:0 entrance to t! is room X-t-ept. from the main cabin. There was no conit'.iuni-j.t i.'ii with other stateroom. It was a'l- jl'it. ly impossible th;t any liv ing person conld have entered it after the door v.-as locked. He told tho occupant so, and by aad by the man admitted that perhaps !:e had been dreaming. He locked his door and returned to l?d, but in the course of half an hour he Imnuded oe.t into the cabin airain. This time he, was greatly agitated. He de clared that his throat had been clutched by a hand as Cold 03 ice, and as the cap taiu examined it he found linger marks ' to prove the man's assertions. - - ( It, was no u.-e to argue he would not go back. There were other unoccupied staterooms, and he was chauged. t "I Ix-iievei'.," said the captain, "tlint he was in the first place overtired. He had not made 11 steamboat trip for several years, and the motion of the boat wns new la him. Added to this, I suspected him of iM-ing a morphine eater who was out of his srir.iuhtr.t, or seeking to break oil th ha!. it. Indeed. I cc.i:!d Cud a dozen exciis s for his conduct. I had no more idea that nnythiDg .vas wrong with ISo. 14 than 1 have that I shall sea the eld boat sailing her route again." . 1 The passenger left the boat next day veil hout inferring to the troubles of the riiht. At S o'clock of the second nitrht tha steamer started on her return trip. Ji. 14 was occupied by a lady. The epptaia did not know this, as he had not uiven the room the slightest thought siiiceehangini; thenian t benight before. At alvout half-past 10 o'clock, while yet a few passengers remained up, he was sent for by the lady. He found her on a sofa in the cabin, agitated and tudicnant. "Sir," she began, "some pconndrel on the boat entered my room just as I was falling asleep!" Ho asked if her door was locked, and lie was certain that siichwasthecase. A womau who sat on a sofa opposite the door, intending to leave the bo-it nt 11 o'clock, asserted that no person had been near the diwr of Na 14 for hn!f an hour previous. The captain then entered the room and showed the lady that there was no othur entrance. It was not pos sible that any one could have got, iu there. In reply she said that a hand hnd passed over her face, a chair had l-en upset, and she had certainly felt the presence of some one. She could not be convince ! ti the contrary, aud another 1001x1 was given to lier. "While this seemed strange," sai 1 the captain, "I hail no superst itions. It was Just possible that these two ik tsoiis were alike in temperament. It mi.ht be that the jar of t he machinery somehow 11 il cted Ko. 14, alt hoiiU I had com man. led tho ln:;t for three seasons previous, and had heard no complaints. I could not just then investigate this idea, my presence tiring required on deck, mid tho voyanc continued without the matter troubling me beyond a few minutes." The room was again given out without the captain huving ktiowlcdgeof theoccu pant. This w;is on the third trip, and ihe occupant was one of the piutn-rs in a wholesale bouse in the Fiai-t, wli-j was traveling for pleasure. He was a si rong, robust, man, in good health, and he re tired to bed about 10 o'clock. Just an hour later he left his stateroom in a very quiet manner, fully 1 ressed, aud hunted up the captain and said: "You may tiiinli I ar. ptvtty soft headed, but I teil you I cannot .--ki p in the stateroom assigned me. Titer.. is something jroiu ou there vhih I can't make oUt." "What hits happened?" aaked the cap tain. "Soon after I got into bed I felt-some one moving about, in the room. Then a band clutched my wrist nad t ried to pull me oui, of bed. The clothing wli: Ii I had hung up was Hung down, and a chair whs tipped over. There was ligbr enough from the cabin for me to see that I was alone, but t hiiigs happened just as I have told you." "You couldn't have been dreaming?" queried the captain. "Dreaming: Why, man, no one could lie more wide awake. Kvi-11 while 1 was dressing I had to fight a something away." "And what do you think?" "That 1 am either suddenly breaking down and abont to Wcomc an idiot or a Innnt ie, or t hat No. 14 is haunted. Have you bad any previous complaints?" "I think I vll turii in there n.yself for the r.-st of the night." aiis.veie.l the cap tain, and he hu-.v that the ycuilft.muii i;ot Ai:ot her room. "It was a quiet night and no si-a o-i," H.'.
