Wlicn Grace turned the confer Into a much used street, she was appalled, and for an Instant turne'd back. ' It was filled with a crowd bT people hurrying By, with fear, horror and other strange passions In their faces. Some were loaded with household goods or treas ures they hoped to save, others carrying screaming babies; or dragging children too ftlghtened to run, andlipw and then hto'or thrce"hold!ng between' tliem one too 111 to stand; It was a terrlblo sight, a whole city flying for life, and a girl alone, however" brave, might well be alarmed. It was only for a moment, however. Grace thought of her father, and plunged into the street. The office was hot -more than half a mile, and her feet fairly flew, although everybody else was going tho other way, and she hal to dodge between people and horses and loads of all sorts. It was well she had not far to go, for the roof was just bursting Into flame as she'opened the door with her father's keys. His desk easily yielded to the peculiar key she knew so well, and among letters and papers laid a package she Instinctively knew was the precious one, so carefully tied and scaled, so out of place It looked there. Grace seized It, and started out. care fully locking the desk and putting the keys In her pocket, when the thought arose, "Where could she hide the pact aje?" You bovs would sav. In the Inner breast pocket of tho vest, But thero was no vest, at any rate Grace hal none, and- inner pockets were an uiv knowh mystery to her. She. thought an Instant, then quietly slipped It down the back of her neck Inside the clothes. The waistband was tight for her, and she felt sure It was safe, and hastily ran "Into the street e,Th!ngi had changed greatly even In ,tfiese few minutes. The tall blocks on I toth sides ot the street were on flro, a big building althe coiner had fallen and cut off her return that way, while the air was full of smoke and cludcrs and heat that nearly suffocated her. Instead of the crowd she had seen, it was tie sertcd, every one had fled for his life, Smothered, blinded, filghtencd, Grace turned to run alas! away from home, It was tho only way she could go. At tho first corner, she found herself no longer alone but one small atom of moving mass of people. To turn the other way would have been like trying to stem a furious rushing river, and he sides, that way was thick smoke and lire. She was carried with the crowd, bewildered, lost, but even In that awful moment filled with joy that she had her father's papers. The fire marched on with rapid strides, driving before it the multitude of home less wanderers, among them our poor Grace, To the Lake shore they went, and as the hot breath of the flames fol lowed them even into the water far out as they could stand, till the water came up to their necks. Even there many were suffocated, and quietly dropped In to tho water and were not missed, Grace went as far as she could,and keep her head above water. She thought with a pang that the papers would be wet, but they were well tleJ, and any way they would not bo burned. So she tried to take comfort, though an awful fear had come upon her that she should never see her parents again. Then, too, sho remembered that no one knew she had gone, nor whereto look for hcr.and though sho had thought only of being brave, she found sho had been foolish. "Hut the papers are. safe, and papa will be glad," was the thought that always came to comfort her des pair. At last, after hours of agony and ter ror and distress, with groans and cries and prayers In strange confusion, such as no one can Imagine who did not pass through it. when many thought the world was burning up, and all had little hope of getting out allvcthe flro burned Itself out In that that part of the city and swept ou to the north. It was late In the afternoon befoie the wear)-, hungry, fainting fugitives ven tured to crawl out of the lake, wring what water they could from their clothes, and set out to find h spot on earth where was no fire, if such a spot there .was, - Grocer joined in the rush over thi heitwl iarlh, water pouring, from jier clothes .at .-first, hut soon -dried. In tho beat around her. Home and papa's package was her only thought cow, pnt where was. home? As soon as she reached tho pavements she, saw th'at she was hopelessly lost WJiere w'asDcarbpru street? WhcreCIarls street? AJI iillke'iinrocogrrizaMe.- Every hri'ajo was burned, lamp-posts,"' itrtcti was a terrible struggle for place. Hi avy wagons piled high with furniture crashed ruthlessly Into carriages of people; fur niture fell and blocked the. way; vehicles wcrcdisabled and abandoned ; frightened horses let loose to trample at their pleasure! ' people with loads thrown down; fecblo women pressed to the wall, All the worst of human passions were let loose.and men became fiends In tho mad struggle for safety and life. As Grace' reached this place, almost crushed lu tlic crowd, a strong 'man be hind her spoke kindly. "My poor lad," he said, "you'll bo killed in that Jam; hold on to mo." and with great difficulty he raised her above tho crowd and stood her on the narrow rail next to the water. "Now hold on to me," he said, snd went on "fighting his own way, while Grace, nearly dead with terror, and ex pecting every moment to fall Into the. water, held wildly to his neck. Once or twlco she slipped, but his strong arm caught her, and at last, after hours, as It seemed to her, they reached the other side, and ho lifted her clown "My hoy," he said kindly, "you look delicate to ho alone In this mad crowd; won't you come with me?" Oh. how Grace longed to do so, but fear restrained her. no thcujht she was a hoy, and she could not explain, because It my endanger the precious package, "Oh, no!" she said hastily, "I must find papa, but I thank you more than I can say forhclpingme over that bridge," shuddering as she speke. "Yes, little man," said her friend, "you'd hardly have come over alive if I hadn't seen you." "Papa'll thank yon too," began Grace, and then, fearful thatho orsome one would suspect she had valuables she turned hastily and ran down a tide street But where should she go? That was the West Side, and free from fire, but sho had never been there, knew no one, and tho streets wcra full of flying peo pla. She could only go with them, for they all seemed going ono way So they were, and after a long walk, In which sho many times nearly fell with fatigue, sho reached the end of her journey, the place where half a city was collected In misery and despair. It was a wide, baro pralrlc, with hundreds yes, thousands of people, soma with a houseful of furniture and goods, some with nothing In tho world but thel night-clothes, camped down to wait for they knew not what, That scene cannot be described, Grace sank exhausted on the ground and very likely would never have arisen for she was wet and cold, tired and hungry. But although everything life seemed gone, kind hearts were not burned up, and near her happened bo a motherly German woman, who had saved all tho furniture of her little house by means of her husband's ex press-wagon, and was now guarding It and her thrco children, while her bus. hand was making $100 a load with the same wagon, drawing rich men's treaS' ures to a placo of safety. The gooi!

Thousands were rous ing to a fresh sense of their own deso lation, families mourning the loss of one of their number who had died during the night, many grieving for children separated lu the crowds, all remember ing hsmes, comforts, blessings forever lost, With dawn, -wagons from the uu burpej part of the city began to arrive, sent by kind hearts which remembered the hosts of homeless fellow-creatures, and filled with food; Bread, tneit and coffee were" distributed, and Grace thanks t'd'her friend Ihe'Gc rtrSAn" wornan rccelved-nr large rotlJ ' jJut anewtmeaslfiess; or'aathcr the pld onV, Begtni ro freerfrWeV her;" fear in;, yet almost hoping, to find then there. Misery, sickness, death, insanity, trouble of all sorts sho saw? but not a face that sho know; and bravely once tuoro she started on the road to what was left of the city. AH that day long sho walked, weary, footsoro.neaflycrazy, Inquiring her way to churches and school-housc,4nd going through every one that she found. "I'm looking for my papa, who's sick," opened all doors to her. Eagerly, almost wlldlv, as the hours went by.she peered Into the faces of tho crowd. She ate something sho knew not what; somebody made her sit down and cat and drlr.k;. somebody said kind words In her car; somebody took off her soaked and ruined shoes, and put on a pair that were dry, though, coarse; somebody tried to take off her jacket to dry It, for It was soaking with last night's rain. But fear of discovery aroused her. She tore away with a cry, and ran many blocks heforo she dared to look around to see if she wero pursued. dust as It began to grow dark Grace who had all day heard dreadful talcs of suffering and death, of people burned up, and people dying of exposure was settling Into the belief that she no longer had father or mother, that she should all her life be a tramp aud a begger, and that all her sufferings had not after all saved her dear papa, for whoso sake she, had braved everything. Just at this lowest point of her courage, her eyes fell upon a familiar faco coming out of church. "0 Maggie!" she cried, with her heart on her lips, "where's my papa?" "An' who aro ye thin?" asked the tidy Irish girl. "I don't know ye, boy." "O Magglcl I'm Graccl I'm not a boy; I have on Bert's clothes." Heie sho whlspcicd: "I I I went to get something for papa." "Faith thin! I do believe it's Miss Grace herself; but I nlver should ha' known her! Holy Mother! won't they bo wild, just?" and seizing one arm of Grace, with a grip like iron sho started off with rapid strides towards the suburb). But Maggie, tell me, are they safe? Do you know anything about them, Maggie?" with a cry so full of agony that the good-hearted though rough girl stopped. "Well, yls, thin; they're safe and sound In my brother's bit place to stay. Your pa was carried In a wagon, and 1 and the Missis rode with tho driver. We couldn't git any place, an' so I made bold to speak to.mo brother, who has a spare bed so he hai. So they went thero glad enough to get a roof oyer their heads. But ain't they just wild about you Your pa was out o' his slnses all night, an' your ma walked the house like a mad cretur, I'm out now have been all day trying to find you. And why thin, I'd like to know, did ye run away that black day?" But Grace could not answer. Belief and joy, added to her sufferings, were too much. She had fainted dead away. bout 8 o'clock that evening there stole Into tho back door of an Irishman's shanty on the prairie a neat Irish girl, half dragging, half carrying the death like figure of a boy, ragged, forlorn, hatlcss, miserable; ho looked like oucof the worst vagabonds of city life. Mrs. Lord was warming something at the fire, and looking so old changed that Grace hardly knew her. At sight Maggie she looked up eagcrly.but seeing hercompaulon she fell back witli a moan. "Oh. my Godl you haven't found her, then?" "Thin ye don't know her, Missis? No more did 1; but look again!" Another and closer look, and mother aud child were In each other's arm. Good news travels as fast as bad, aud in one minute more Graco was in tho arms of her father, and such a sceno of tears and sobs and groans and erics, may It never be your lot to see. When all were calm, and Graco was warmed and fed and bathed, and dressed in some clothes of Maggie's In which she looked Hko an overgrown doll; anil when the precious package, which had so nearly cost tho lives of Grace and her father, was found to be not destroyed by Its soaking Grace told her story, or what sho could of It.
