Edith K. Terry In Boston Transcript. JUST BY CHANCE. A dav and the life of Isaac Rawson were drawing to a close together. The rays of tho setting sun stole into the room where the dying man lay, and ho watched them intently until they faded awav. He knew he would never see them attain. Death had confronted tho old lawyer suddenly. His energies, overtaxed through a long life devoted to ceaseless money getting, had collapsed in an in stant almost, and left that which we call life without the support necessary for Its further continuance, "He cannot live through tho night; probably the end is not more than a few hours distant," the old family physician had said but a few niinutt before when the son who now sat by his father's bed side asked what tho chanc -a were. Tho son sat with bowiii head. His features were composed in .in expression of decorous grief; his hanca wcr foiled upon his lap, and at almost regular inter vals ho Bighed. Had he raised his head, it would have appeared that there was not the suspicion of atearinhia eyes, and that there lingered in their depths a look of quiet satisfaction which the linos of sorrow that were set upon his face could not entirely hide. Perhaps the fact that ho knew himself to bo the solo heir to his father's wealth had something to do with shaping the younger man's "inner feelings. Some hearts aro ruled by tho desiro for personal gain rather than by affection. "Robert." Scarcely above a whisper the single Herd camo from the colorless lips of the old man. The man at the bedside started tllghtly, as one who is suddenly aroused Vom thought that has carried him far away from present surroundings. Then le turned and answered: "Yes, father, What do you wish?" "I have been thinking of your brother, Robert, I fear that after all I should not have treated him as I did." The old man paused, exhausted by the effort which the words had cost him. An expression that was unpleasant to see flitted across the younger man's features, but in an instant it was gone again. "I know that I have but a short time to live," resumed tho old man, "and things appear to mo in a different light. It was heartless in me to disinherit and disown Jack because ho married accord ing to his own wishes instead of my dic tates. I shall change my will; there is enough for you both. Each shall have half, and I shall die happier." "Yes, father." Tho words came gently from tho son's Hps, but tho look on his face would havo surprised the father could ho have seen it. But the gloom was thickening and his half closed eyes did not sec. "Draw up the will as I wish it, quickly, while I have yet tho strength left me to sign," directed tho dying man. Robert went to a table near by, lit a gas jot and began to write, not at all nastily. "why are you so long about it? A few words will certainly bo enough," impa tiently exclaimed the old man after the son had been busy what seemed to bo a very long time. "I shall bo done directly. There, 1 am through," replied tho son, as ho rose and handed what ho had written to his father. "That is right," was all the latter said after he had read the will. Then he took the pen from his son's hand and with a great effort signed his name. "Now sign as a witness, and call Han nah; she' will do as tho other witness." Robert affixed his signature; then he called the housekeeper and she also signed her name. "Mow go to my desk and take tho old will and burn it. You will find it in the little drawer to the right." Robert went to the desk, took a folded caper from the drawer indicated, lipid it in the gas flame until it was well ablaze and threw it upon tho open fireplace whero it lay a moment later a charred mass. "There; it is not so har.l to die now," whispered the dying man "I l'eU that I-cannot live untllJaok could be sent for; Dut l want you, Robert, to go to 1; i -. thin very night and tell him thsi uu l i was not steeled against Mm to til. 1 Tell him of the will whloh" Isaao Rawson ceased sreakinir and lav ' motionless. Ho was dead. It is not yet midnight when Robert steps aboard a train that will take him to the city whero his brother, Jack, lives; for has not his father with his dying breath told him to go to his brother this verynightf Who would fail to respect tho last wishes of one now dead? Surely not a son. The city where Jack lives is not fa distant; but there is a river to cross on the wt. As the train rumbles slowly ,.,-. 4t, l,.tJ. rl.. . I " K ' ' i"iiu in i no task of trimming his finger nails in which he is apparently deeply engrossed, and looks out of tho window down upon the dark waters below in which tho stars, reflected, gleam. A thought comes to him. whioh though spontaneous in Itself is but tho culmination of what has been passing in his mind ever since his father's death. He takes from his breast pocket a folded paper on which the writing is but a few hours old. This he wraps about the handle of the knife he holdstn his hand. Then he shuts the blade so that, tho paper Is held firmly. With a careless move ment ho lays the hand holding the knife upon the edge of the window. When he withdraws the hand a moment later it is empty. The knife is a heavy one and will go straight to the bottom, and with it the paper wrapped about it. Tho waters often give up their dead, but in animate objects of value they hold with in their depths. It is a week later. The will of Isaao Rawson is to be read in the presence of those interested. It is a mere formality of 90WM, for other than hie two sons the testator left no kin. The sons both know what they will hear. Robert at least huown. and Jack may surmise. And rag trie tew nours mat must elans before the will is opened and read? "You ore early. Mr. Drew will not be here for half an hour yet," are Rob art's first words to his brother Jack aa the latter enters tho homo of whloh Rob ert already considers himself tho solo owner. "I thought it best to havo a few words with you before Mr. Drew arrives," is Jack's reply. Mr. Drew Is the lawyer to whom the necessary legal transactions in connection with tho will havo been en trusted. "You told mo that father had said something about a now will Just before he died; but that none but tho old one, made fifteen years ago, coma bo round," remarks Jack to his brother when they are seated a momont later. The remark is mado with an interrogative inflection, so that Robert feels Impelled to reply. "Yes, no other will was found, though I searched everywhere. Father's mind must havo been wandering when hs snoko of another will." "Possibly; still you probably .didn't think of searching in the river," la Jack's next remark. Robert turns palot then tho blood surires baok and his face becomes al most purple. "What are you driving at? what do vou mean?" ho asks. The words como like gasps. "Only this. On tho night v.hon you camo to tell me of father's death, some vounir men were returning from a fish' Inn trio on the river. Just as they were rowlntr under the bridge, a missile thrown from above struck one of them on tho back and fell to the bottom of the boat. See. this is quite a heavy knife. and if a piece of paper hadn't beon wrapped about it, it might havo hurt tho young man it struct quite sovoroiy. The young man happens to be an ac quaintance of mine. He thinks the knife was dropped by some one on a railroad train that was crossing the bridge just then. Now I merely wish to suggest that, when Mr. Drew comes, we give into his hands this document which fell into my friend's boat, and that we say nothing about the old will at all. How does the proposition suit you?" Arthur Lucas in The Epoch. TJakn Not Drying Up. The report of the exhaustion of the J1uku -ill supply, whioh has lately been 'xtrnslvely circulated, appears to have arisi n from the fact that a "shut down" of a large number of wells was ordered, for tho purpose of checking the over production which has been going on. It is no uncommon thing for a native of Baku to tap a supply of 20,000,000 gal Ions of oil, end waste 19,000,000 out of it, simply for want of foresight in pro viding a cep for the well, or by the omis sion to arrange for surface storage. Tho authorities have now taken the matter in hand, and passed laws which regulate the supply. In view of the rapid increase in tho demand for petroleum, it is satisfactory to know that Baku is as proliflo of oil as ever. Tho oil trade is rapidly assuming such gigantio propor tions that for many years there will prob ably be ample room for America, Russia and Burmah, as well as for the minor fields that will in time furnish a supply for the world's market. But, in any case, it will bo a good thing for Russia when the more careful and economical methods of America aro adopted in the Caspian region. New York Telegram. Feel Tour Adam' Apple. "It is well known," said Joe Beards ley, "that deformities have often dictated styles, but probably most people do not realize to what extent the slight defects control them in the most trivial pieces of apparel. This is shown in the case of tho prevailing styles of collars worn, When the style changed from the low collar to the high one it was a sweeping change, so that but few people could be seen wearing anything but the choker. Finally the choker was modified, into a collar with tho ends turned down, a good deal of space being left open to the throat. ' "That stylo was never adopted univer sally. Why? For the reason that a great portion of tho men who have occasion to wear collars at all havo prominent Ad' am's apples, which they are very glad to hide from sight if 'they find on oppor tunity.
