A Vagabond's Luck.
BV M. E. HOI.AHAN,
A slender, dark thing the embryo of
beauty some day perhaps.
Even as sho was tho apple of her genial,
hearty old father's eye, so was Rick Wood
the especial thoin In the flesh of her lan
guld, gentc'cl mother. "
"Sho Is so much- like her fathor," sadly
complained'that lady. "If only she could
have been like iny people as -Rue Is now, I
might get on with two daughters.: l(uo Is
not only e'xqdtsltely beautiful, but dainty,'
refined, cultured; and a very' foil to off-set
Richmond's bblstorpus liohlenlsm and lev
ity.
The younger Miss Wood's proper Chris
tlan nanio'.was Richmond, but she scornful
ly aenicuina stately appellation, and aps-
wercd to tho morp sultaMo pet name her
father had given her, lone ago.
. "Ruojs a!( she. should "bo,"' her mother
was wont to say proudly, "On my side she
has sonioi of the'bluest blood In Virginia
lri her .veins, and shows" It. But Rich
mond, "
Before the very thought of that trouble
some young Idea words failed the lady
mother, and her sore disappointment was
shown In a slow, disapproving, graceful
movement ol' her puffed aud .colled head,
accompanied by a languid sigh.
In speaTdng of Rue's .advantages, she
failed 'to mention that they had 'been won
by neglect and abuse of tho younger child'
opportunities.
Naturally wild, free, adventurous, but
tender and affectionate, Rick had been, left
to bring herself, up alter her own fashion,
and the fashion of .her father, while her
mother and beautiful sister were glad to get
her off their hands at any price.
She gained a sort of wild, gypsy-like wis
dom, and. quaint, outlandish knowledge
01 glrjs of her age never possess, or rare
ly. As all the wildest pranks Imaginable
were often traced to the bolden's door, and
all the careless slang of the age on her lips,
It was not long before tho younger dauqh
ter of the fastidious blue-blooded Mn.
Wood becanioknqwn as "Vagabond Rick."
The sirl of sixteen rather enjoyed It.
Captain Wood was commander of the
American steamer Sea Gull, plying between
Boston and eastern cities. Genial, hale,
bluff, and honest, he was a man to be liked
and' respected.
Long years before, when on his first trip
aud while was young and foolish, he had
fallen in love with a young Virginian beau
ty, and subsequently married her, much to
his own later consternation and dismay.
For she was no more fitted to be his wife
than he. jvas to he her husband.
, Ilerjolki, who were themselves sadly
lmppvcrjgbcd.had ncyer forglycn Elaine for
marrying beneath her; but the lack of
their benediction was tho least of Captain
H'ood's troubles,
Ruth, the Crst-born.had grownup a frail,
beautiful, fretful little thing like her moth
er, and tho captain was disappointed when.
1ils daughter shrank from his tpugh em
brace .or hearty smack evenaslier mother
did.
Then, when Rue was live year; old a
dainty, blonde doll another daughter
came, and this time one after the captain's
own heart.
After his rude yet. tender training and.
thevill cf her qwn passionately throbbing,
willful heart, she grew up wild, lawless,
shockingly frank and full of emotion, whose
only outlet was aiv Idolatrous loyo for her
father, and a pride in her mother and sister
as if they wete composed of a different
clay.
The money to educate her was supplied
by an eccentric old aunt of the captain's. . .
Miss Kent lived In New York, was very
wealthy, very eccentric, and Rick's, god
mother, for whom she had been named,..
All the money was spent on her mother.
and, Rue, while tho child for whom It was
Intended. followed, unrestrained, her own
devices.
At Rick's earnest pleading, Captain
AV'ood frequently took her with "him on his
voyages on the ocean, and she displayed
wonderful powers and knowledge of sea
faring that eternally endeared her to the
hearts of the rude old sailors.
On these occasions only was she. PrmItV
d to visit Boston, where. Rue was, attend
Ing tho Academy of Music, and then her
visit just lasted long enough to reach the
steamer with her fond old father.
' At last her sixteenth birthday rolled
around, and passed to Its dreary gloam
ing.
A wild young thing It foutid her, full of
f life, .bouyancj, and darc-deyll pranks
enough to fairly explode the little seaside
Village of Lypmouth,
Sho was httnylng up tho ylllago street,
gloomy and drear at any time, hut more so
on this wild, sobbing November evening,
with Its rustling dead leaves, Its dark gray
sky, and keen touch of frost In tho air.
At last she reached tho pretty cottage
where tho lamps were not yet lighted.
l'cerlng through the window of the sitting-room,
she saw Rue sitting in a great
arm,chalr drawn up before the glow In tho
fireplace.
Jiho was gazing with penslvo eyes Into the
ruddy blaze. Ucr white, jeweled hands
were Idly clasped before her In the lap of
her white j:s.shmere wrapper, and against
the dark velvet back of the chair her lovely
face was outlined like a pure, pale star.
"How beautiful she is T Rick breathed,
'admiringly. "I- do wish I was pretty like
Rue;' but then, I ain't, and I don't think
she's any .happier for her beauty. She's
always wanting something she can't hayo;
but I'll be her fairy godmother by proxy,1
and give her a surprise to-night I"
With that she burst Into the room just as
Mrs. irood add the delicious fragrance of
tea entered from tho kitchen.
"Hooray!" shouted Rich, enthuslastlcal
ly waving a letter over her dark, close'
cropped head. " 'Eyery. day'll bo Sunday
by and by.' "
Rue lifted her beautiful eyes with a pret
ty frown aboye them.
Mrs. Wood had lit tho lamp, and now
turned upon her daughter Indignantly.
."Richmond, leave the room," she com
manded shrilly. "Else learn to control
vulgarity before your sister and mother.
You become more rude every- day, child.
Now what is the matter? From whom is
that letter your .father?"
Metaphorically folding the wings she had
recently flapped about her In meek dejec
Hon, Rick walked quietly oyer to tho fire,
and began to warm her blue little hands.
"Jy father's aunt!" she returned, brief-
ly.
IKhateYer they got out of her now they
would hayo to unravel, Her enthusiasm
was, to use her own expression, "squelched
flatter'n a flounder."
"Your father's aunt?" ' exclaimed her
mother. "Let me see the letter, child.
Why did you open It beforo you brought it
homo to me?" , .
"Because it Is addressed to met" coolly
rctbrted Rick, "and so it Is mine by lawl"
Her mother had taken the letter and was
greedily dovouring Its contents.
. Utterly indifferent, Rue had relapsed Into
hcrwaklng dreams. Instead of the vivid
coals In the grate, her lovely, violet eyes
saw'onlv a handsome, grandly dark face.
and a tall, magnificent form in naval uni
form'. .
What a glorious, idyllic summer she had
passed at the seacoast until Captain Alym
er had been called away by the Illness of a
friend.
Aud. sho bad never heard from him again;
but surely she would, sho must, or go mad,
Without him all her life would be drearier
and darker than the gloomy autumnal night

voice. "Aro you asleep, dear? Just think I
Aunt Kent has invited you and Rick to go
to spend tho winter with her 1n New
Yqrk!"
Rue lifted her beautiful eyes eagerly.
"Add all the hlfalutin pollsh.mamma,"
exclaimed Rich, mockingly. "Say Fifth
Avenue, New York. Any place clso would
bo plebeian."
"And," continued Mrs. Wood, "she in-
closes a check for five hundred dollars to
secure sultablo outfits, and cover the trav
eling expenses."
Hue's Jieart beat high with hope. Here
I Mas the chance to meet Captain Alymcr
again, for she had often heard him say that
the only home he had was In New York,
and on Fifth Avenue.
Surely they would meet, and But sud'
denly her heart fell as her, eyes rested on
the eager, frank, childish face gf her sister,
Must sho take Rick with hex, and be the
target for sarcasm on, her sister's account?
"Must Rick go?" she asked dubiously,
"I suppose "
"I don't care what you suppose," flashed
Rick, recklessly.' "Sho Is my godmother;
I am Invited, and I don't see why I should
not go?"
"Nor I," replied Rue, sarcastically, "If
you with to display yourself for a laughing
stock. Your boisterous manners would
shock any society, and if you go, I will
not, that Is all."
A momentary, silence, then:
"ion neeu not forego your trip," ans
wered Rick, with ominous dlcnltv. "If
my manners are boisterous and rude, my
accomplishments neglected, -who Is to
blame? While you have been petted and
-fayored, I have been either lot run like a
'wild Indian, elso domlnccrod over like a
galley-slave. You may tell Aunt Kent what
you please; I will not go."
A few days later It was that Miss Kent,
seated at breakfast In her magnificent
home, opposite her pet protege, the eon of
a dead friend, read an Indignant letter
from Kick, stating tho facts, and her moth
er never dreamed of its tending neither
Rue, who, resplendent in fashionable ele
gance, was speedily following the -missive.
"Poor child!" exclaimed Miss Kent, wip
ing her glasses. "1 always dldeuspect that
they abused iter, And that pretty doll,
Rue, Is coming here alone. I'd like to send
her back quick as she came. Illiat shall I
do, Dare?"
"Do?" exclaimed Cantaln Alvmer. a
smile in his handsomeark eyes. My dear
Miss Kent, tho proper thtng, I suppose. I
am booked for tho European trip, you
know. I fancy Miss Wood will be some
unfortunate old millionaire's wife on my
return."
"It Is really too bad for you, Dare I" ex
claimed hts old friend. "To leave that
painted, exquisite jewel on my hands; yet
I'd hate to haye you fall into her clutches.
I think quite too much of you, my boy."
So, while Rue went to New York,buoyed
up with the hope of meeting Captain Dare
Alymer, that gentleman was registered as i
a guest In Uie Sea Gull.
Sor', hurt and disappointed, Hick had
persuaded her father Into allowing her to
accompany him on his voyage while her
mother went to i-ilt friends in Boston.
"So," thought Caphiln Alymer when the
oil soa lenptnln had prcslcntcdhim to his
daughter. "This is my friend's abused lit
tle Iilckt I really must study hr. A bright,
sparkling, lovable littlo Ihine.and the study
might ho dangerous, but what then?"
So they drifted Into an easy, pleasant
companionship, which ended In something
deeper when one wild, windy, awful night,
tho boat grounded, and was In danger of
sinking.
All on board was confusion. Among the
few calm people stood Captain Alymer and
Rick, sldo by sldo on deck, looking out into
the wild, lashing sea around them.
"My darling,'' ho whispered solemnly,
bending Ills head, and drawing tier to him.
"Aro you afraid, my own little love?"
Trembling all over.sho lifted her trustful
eyes to his.
"No," sho ausweretlsoftly; "I could not
bo afraid with you and papa.. But I can
swim like a fish."
lie smiled and kissed her face.
"2fy beloved little holden," he whispered.
"Tell me, Rick, you lovo me tell me
again and you will be my own darling
wife."
"If wo live," sho answered laughingly,
smiling through tears.
The vessel was saved after oil; and tho
voyago continued In red-lettered happlntfes.
In Paris, Captain Aylmer Insisted on
making Rick his wife, and taking her with
him on his extended trip of plcasnrl.
Long beforo their return Rue discovered
that her vagabond sister had won tho love
of her life, and her grief and chagrin were
something appalling.
But later sho became tranquil and phlh
soph leal enough to accept a rich old wid
ower, whose diamonds atoned for whatever
he lacked in looks and principle.
