Ay, to be sure, arent' got so much
as our old cat!" grinned a third.
"Btay'" cried the one-eyed man, peer
ing up at me beneath his hand "Is they
whiskers a-peepln' at me over Ms cravat
or do my eyes deceive me?" Which pleas
entry called forth another roar of laugh
ter at my expense
Now. very foolishly perhaps, this non
sense greatly exasperated me, for I was,
at that time painfully conscious of my
bare lips and chin. It was, therefore,
with an effort that I mastered my quickly
riling temper and once more addressed
myself to Cragg.
"I am willing,." said I, "to accept your
conditions and right you-for a guinea
or any other man here, for that matter,
except the humorous gentleman with the
watery eye, who can name his own
price." The fellow In question stared at
me, glanced slowly around, and, sitting
down, burled his face in his tankard.
"Come. Tom Cragg," said I, "a while
ago you seemed very anxious for a man
to fight; well I'm your man." and with
the words I stripped oft my coat and
laid It across a chair-back.
This apparent willingness on my part
waa but a cloak for my real feelings, for
I will not here disguise tho fact that the
prospect before me was anything but
agreeable; Indeed, my heart was thump
ing In a most unpleasant manner, and
my tongue and lips had become strangely
parched and dry, as I fronted Cragg.
Truly, he looked dangerous enough,
with hla beetling brow, his great depth
of chest, and massive shoulders; and the
possibility of a black eye or so. and sren-
eral pounding from the fellow's knotted
fists, was daunting In the extreme. Still,
the chance of earning a guinea, even un
der such conditions, was not to bo lightly
thrown away; therefore L folded my arms
and waited with as much resolution as I
could.
"Sir," said Cragg, speaking in a very
altered tone, "sir, you seem uncommon
eager for It."
"I ahall be glad to get it over," said I.
"If," he went on slowly, "If I sold
anything against you know who, I'm
sorry for It me 'avlng the greatest re
spec' for you know who you understand
me, I think." And herewith he winked,
three separate and distinct times.
'5No, I don't understand you In the
least," said I, "nor do I think it at all
necessary; all that I care about Is the
guinea In question."
"Come, Tom," cried one of the com
pany, "knock 'to 'ead off to begin with."
"Ay, set about 'm, Tom cut your gab
an' finish 'lm," and here came the clat
tea of chairs as the company rose.
"Can't be done," said Cragg, shaking
his head, "leastways not 'ere."
"I'm not particular," said I, "If you
prefer, we might manage It very well In
the stable with a couple of lanthorns."
"The barn would be the very place,"
suggested the landlord, bustling eagerly
forward and wiping his hands on his
apron, "the very place plenty of rooni
and nice and soft to fall on. If you
would only put off your flghtln' till to
morrow, we might cry It through the
villages; 't would be a big draw. Ecodl
we might make a purse o" twenty pound
If you only would! Think It over
think It over."
"Tomorrow I hope to be a good dis
tance from here," Bald I; "come, the
sooner It Is over the better, show us your
barn." So the landlord called for lan
thorns and led the way to a largo out
building at the back of the Inn, Into
which we all trooped.
"It eeems to be a good place and very
sutt&le." said I.
"You may well say that," returned the
landlord, "lt' many a fine bout as has
been-brought off ln-JJrf-the tlmo Jem
Belcher beat 'Tho Young Ruffian' the
Prince o" Wales sat In a cheer over In
that theer corner ah, that was a day, it
you please!"
"If Tom Cragg Is ready." said I, turn
ing up the wristbands of my shirt, "why,
bo am I." Here it was found to every
one's surprise, and mine In particular,
that Tom Cragg was not In the barn.
Surprise gave place to noisy astonisn
ment when, after much running to and
fro. It waa further learned that he had
vanished altogether. The Inn Itself, the
stables, and evsn tho haylofts were ran
sacked without avail. Tom Cragg was
gone as completely as though he had
melted Into thin air, and with him all
my hopes of winning the guinea and a
comfortable bed.
It was with all my old dejection upon
me, therefore, that 1 returned to the tap
room, and, refusing the officious aid of
the One-Eyed Man, put on my coat, re
adjusted my knapsack and crossed to tho
door. On the threshold I paused, and
looked back. ,
"If," eald I, glancing round the ring of
faces, "If there Is any man here who Is
at all willing to fight for a guinea, ten
shillings, or even five, I should be very
glad of the chance to earn It" But, see
ing how each, wilfully avoiding my eye,
held his peace, I sighed, and turning my
back upon them, set oft along the dark
ening road
CHAPTER. VI.
Evening bad fallen, and I walked along
In no very happy frame of mind, the
more so. as the rising wind and flying
wrack of clouds above (through which a
watery moon had peeped at fitful In
tervals) seemed to presage a wild night.
It needed but this to make my mleery
the more complete, ror, as rar as cuum
tell, If I slept nt all (and I was already
very weary), It must, of necessity, be
beneath some hedge or tree.
Ae I approached the brow of the hill I
suddenly remembered that I muet once
more pass the gibbet, and began to strain
my eyes for it. Presently I pled It, sure
enough. Its grim, gaunt outline looming
through the murk, and Instinctively I
quickened my stride eo as to pass it as
soon as might be.
T was almost abreast of It when a figure
rose from beneath it and slouched into
the road to meet me. I stopped there and
then, and grasping my heavy staff waited
1U approach.
"Be that you, sir?" said a voice, and I
recognised the voice of Tom Cragg.
"What are you doing and thero or an
places?" .
"Oh-I ain't af eared of 'lm," answered
Cragg, Jerking his thumb toward tho gib
t. ,,t .i., a'aarri n none as ever
dra'wed breath-dead or llvln'-except It
be 'is 'Ighness the rnnco jiegeni.
"And what do you want -
"I opes as theer"a no offense, my lord,
said he. knuckling his forehead, and
speaking In a tone that was a strange
nitiiin of would-be comradeship and
cringing servility "Cragg Is my name,
moved hla hat and stood staring and
scratching his bullet-head as one In sore
perplexity.
Fo 1 left him and strode on down the
hill As I went the moon shot out a
feeble rny. through some rift in the roll
ing clouds, and, looking back, I saw him
standing where I had left him beneath
the gibbet, still scratching hie bullet
head and staring after me down the hill
Now, though the whole attitude and
behavior of the fellow was puzxllng to
no small degree, my mind was too full of
my own concerns to give much thought
to him Indeed, scarce was he out of my
sight but I forgot him altogether; for,
what with my weartnecs, the long, dark
road before and behind me and my empty
pockets, I became a prey to great dejec
tion. So much so that I presently sank
wearily beside the way, and, resting my
chin In my hands, sat there, miserably
enough, watching the night deepen about
me.
"And yet." said I to myself. "If. as
Eplctetus says, 'to despise a thing Is to
possess It,' then am I rich, for I have
always despised money; and If, weary as
I am, I can manage to condemn the lux
ury of a feather bed, then tonight, lying
in this grassy ditch beneath the stars, I
shall slumber as sweetly as ever I did
between the snowy sheets." Baying which
I rose and began to look about for some
likely nook In the hedge where I might
pass the night. I was thus engaged when
I heard the creak of wheels and the
pleasant rhythmic Jingle ot harness on
the dark hill above, and In a little while
a great wagon or wain, piled high with
hay, hovo into view, the driver of which
rolled loosely in his seat with every Jolt
of the wheels, so that It was a wonder
he did not roll oft altogether. Aa ho
came level with me I hailed him loudly.
whereupon ho started erect and brought
his horses to a stand.
"Hulloal" he bellowed, in tho loud,
strident tone ot one rudely awakened,
"w at do eo want wl I? '
"A lift," I answered; "will you give
a tired fellow a lift on his way?"
"W'y I dunno bo you a talkln' chap?"
"I don't think bo," said I.
"Because, If you be a talkln' chap, I
beant a-goln' to give ee' a lift, no'ow .
not It I knows It: give a chap a lift
t'other day, I did took 'lm up t'other
sldo o' Seven-oaks, an' a' talked me up
'111 an down '111, "e did dang met If I
could get a wink o' sleep all the way to
Tonbridge; so If you'm a talkln' char),
you don't get no lift wl' I."

Fhlladelphlans saw the first spectacu
lar work on the Frankfort! elevated line
this afternoon, when a monster 70-foot
pile driver was erected at Front street
and Girard avenue. This machine will
be emplojed to drive heavy timbers
down to solid rock In order that there
may be a sound foundation upon which
to construct the concrete work for the
superstructure of the road.
There are 20 pita already dug on Front
street, south of Qlrord avenue, in which
the workmen will begin to hammer the
big posts within a few days There will
be nine of the piles In each pit." "and their
great size may easily be Judged' when
the size of the pits are considered. Each
of them Is 10 feet square and 8 feet deep
The foundation wall will, therefore, rest
on a base of concrete that is 8 feet be
low the surface.
It is not believed that many piles will
be needed for the Frankford "IV as the
engineers who have made borings learned
that there was little probability, of them
being needed to any great extent above
fiirnrri avenue. About 600 of the timbers
will be driven in Front street UeloMf
Girard avenue. The soil was found to be
largely "filled" In many places In that
vicinity, and that accounts for tho need
ot placing piling as supports tor the foun
dation. A 6000-pound steam hammer will drive
the big timbers down to solid rock.
One of the pits has been filling with
water during the last day or two, and old
residents say that this is probably due
to a creek that they remember running
Into the Delaware many years ago from
that section.
In excavating for the pits workmen
came across foundation walls of brick
built by August Belmont, 24 years ago,
when he started to construct a Frank
ford elevtted line. The engineers of to
day marvel at such a foundation for a.

science of engineering when it is com

upon now.
Police Court Chronicles
Luck pursues James Dorney eo persist
ently that he even profits by his mistakes.
He likes to take long walks, and was on
his way from Tioga to City Hall yester
day when he lost his bearings and got
in the neighborhood of 2d and Lou
den streets. Some one told James that
he1 was a couple ot miles out of hla road,
and he was about to retrace his steps
when he saw a keg of beer lying In the
street. It didn't seem to belong to any
one In particular, and seeing that it
would Interfere with traffic, Dorney
rolled It up an alley and covered It w,th
some old boards lie then entered a
nearby saloon and by a very persuasive
manner succeeded in borrowing a spigot
and a mallet. It was the easiest thing
In tho world to borrow a cup from the
front of a crockery store when the pro
prietor wasn't looking, and with this put
fit James soon got results He was en
joying life to the full and had sampled
a great deal of the keg's contents when
Policeman Larzere chanced along
Although Dorney explained that the
keg was homeless when he picked it
up to prevent possible accidents iri- the
street, the cop compelled him to explain
to Magistrate Wrlgley at the Branch
town station
The keg was taken along by way of
evidence While James was endeavor
ing to explain, the driver of a brewery
wagon came In and reported the loss
ot the keg, He recognized it in the po
lice station and told Dorney what he
thought of him In German. Aa it could
hot be shown that James atole the beer,
the Judge was lenient, and on promising
to bring such matters to the attention
of the police in the future, he was al
lowed to pursue his pleasant walk of
eight miles to City Hall, which he did
somewhat unsteadily.
