As tvern "Itemember the Alamo" nnd "Remember the Mttlrle" to tho fighting men of the days that they were live things, so were the habiliments of gentility to Billy Byrne nt all times. Billy Mnllory was nn older man than tho mucker 24 perhaps nnd fully ns large. For four years ho had played right guard on n great Rnstern team, nnd for three ho had pulled stroke upon the crew. During tho two yenrs since his gradua tion ho had prided himself upon the main tennnco of the physical supremacy that had mnde tho name of Mallory famous In collegiate nthlctlcs! but In one vital essen tial he was hopelessly hnndlcappcd In com bat with such ns Billy Byrne, for Mnllory was a gentleman. As the mucker rushed upwnrd toward htm Mallory had nil the advantages of posi tion nnd preparedness, nnd had ho done what Billy Byrne would have done under like circumstances ho would have planted a kick In tho midst of tho mucker's facial beauties with nil tho power nnd weight and, energy nt his command; but Billy Mai' lor' could no more hnvo pcrpetrntcd n cow nrdly trick such ns this thnn ho cotjjd havo struck n woman, Instead he wnlted, nnd ns the mucker camo on n even footing .with him Mal lory swung n vicious right for the man's Jaw, Byrno ducked beneath tho blow, came up Insldo Mallory's guard, nnd struck him thrco times with trip-hammer velocity nnd pllc-drlvcr effectiveness once upon tho Jaw nnd twice below tho belt I Tho girl, clinging to tho rati, riveted by the pnrnlysls of fright, saw her cham pion stagger back and half crumplo to the deck. Then she saw him mnkc a bravo nnd despernta rnlly. ns, though torn with agony, ho lurched forward In nn endeavor to clinch with tho brute before him. Again the mucker struck his victim quick, choppy hooks that rocked Mallory's head from sldo to side and again the brutal blow below tho bett. But with tho tennclty of a bulldog tho mnn fought for n hold upon lilt foe. nnd at Inst, notwithstanding Byrne's best ef forts, ho succeeded In closing with tho mucker nnd dragging him to the deck. Hero tho two men rolled nnd tumbled, Byrno biting, gouging nnd kicking, whllo Mnllory devoted all of his fnst-wanlng strength to an effort to closa his fingers upon the throat of his antagonist. But thn terrlblo punishment which tho mucker had Inflicted upon him overcamo him at last, and as Byrno felt tho man's ef forts wenkenlng ho partially disengaged himself, nnd, raising himself upon one nrm, dcnlt his now nlmost unconscious enemy a half dozen frightful blows upon tho fncc. With a shriek Barbara Hnrdlng turned from tho awful sight as Billy Mallory's bloody nnd swollen eyes rolled up and set. whllo tho mucker threw tho Inert form roughly from him. Quick to tho girl's mem ory sprang Mallory's recent declaration, which she had thought at tho tlma but tho empty and vainglorious boasting of tho man In love, "Why, I'd dlo for you, Barbara, and wolcomo tho chancel" "Poor boy! How soon nnd how terribly hns tho chnnco come I" moaned tho girl. Then a rough hand fell upon her arm. "Here, you I a coarse voice yelled In her oar. "Como out o' do trance I" nnd at tho same tlmo she was Jerked roughly toward tho companlonwny. Immediately ths girl held back, and then tho mucker, truo to his training, true to hlmsolf, gavo her arm n-sudden twist that wrenched n scream of agony from her white lips. "Den como along," growled Billy Byrne, "an" quit dls monkey business, or 111 twist yer flipper clean often yeh 1" With an oath Anthony Harding sprang forward to protect his daughter, but tho butt of Ward's pistol brought him uncon-' sclous to tho deck.

Each member brings 2 cents dues to every meeting, and when we have enough raongy we are going to try to do some food for the poor and needy. We had our meeting last night and surely had a good time.

Then Skipper Slmms ordered Wnrd to senrch the yacht nnd remove all flrcnrms. After thnt he was to navigate the vessel with her own crew tinder armed guard of half a dozen of tho Hnlfmoon's cutthroats. These things attended to. Skipper Slmms, with tho remainder of his own crew nnd six of the crew of the Lotus to take the places upon tho brlganttne of those left ns a prize crew nboard tho yacht, returned with tho girl to the Halfmoon. Tho sailing Vessel's sails were soon hoisted nnd trimmed, and In half nn hour, followed by the Lotus, sho wns scudding briskly southward. For 48 hours this course was held until Slmms fctt nssured that tl.ey were well out of the lano of regular Ira. spaclflc trnfllc. During this time Barbara Harding had been kept below, locked In a small, untidy cabin. She had seen no one other than n great negro, who brought her meals to hci three times dally meals that she returned scnrccly touched. Now the Halfmoon was brought up Into tho wind, where sho lay with flapping can vas. Skipper Slrr.t.is returned to the Lotus with tho six men of the yacht's crew that ho had brought aboard the brlgantlno with him two days before, and ns many more of his own men. Once aboard the Lotus, tho men wero put to work with those nlready on tho yacht. Tho boat's rudder wns unshipped nnd dropped Into the oceatf: her Arcs were put out, her engines wcro attacked with slcdgc3 until they were little better than so much Junk. Xo chanco was to be taken of Imme diate pursuit or of being traced to the Halfmoon's destination. Even tho yacht's coal wns all shoveled Into the Pacific. Her extra masts and sparo sails followed the way of the coal and the rudder, so when Sklppor Hlmms and First Ofllccr Ward left her with nil of their own men that had been nbonrd her, sho wns little belter than n drifting derelict, manned by Harding, his guests nnd crew. From her cabin window Barbarn Harding had witnessed tho wanton wrecking of her father's yacht. When It was over and tho crew of the brlgnntlno had returned to their own ship she presently felt tho movement of the vessel ns It got under wny. Soon tho Lotus dropped to the stern nnd beyond the rnnge of her tiny port. With a moan of hopelessness nnd terror tho girl s.tnk prostrate across tho hard berth that spanned one end of her prison cell. Her father had been nbnndoncd to his fate ! Flnnlly sho wns nrouscd by tho opening of her cabin door. As she sprnng to her feet ready to defend herself ngnlnst what she fcit might easily be some new form of danger, her eyes went wide In astonishment ns they rested on the face of tho man who stood framed In tho doorway, "You 7" sho cried.

The Kind Rainbow 111- MAY KOENia, Atlnntle City. Mary often sat In the garden with her doll. Mary loved pets. She had one pet that she loved best. This pet was a rabbit. She loved him dearly, She belonged to the Rainbow Club. The 'club helped her to be kind. One day as she was In the garden with her doll and the rabbit a little girl came from the alley. Her dress was rags, her stockings were torn, and she had no hair ribbon, Mary thought how comfortable she was and how uncomfortable the little girl was, Then the little girl said, "I am lost and my mother Is poor," Mary said, "Have you no father?" "I have no father," replied the child.. Mary thought of the Rainbow Club, Then she said, "1 will give you my doll and my dear rabbit that 1 love so well ' Then Mary ran In the house and asked her mother to tko care of the little girl. Her mother vunt to the little girl's house and brought the poor woman and her child home to live with Mary and herself. The Two Men By PAUL HINDERLITEK, Featrvlll, Pa. Once upon a time a rich man had a beautiful house across the street from the tiny home of a. poor man. One ds,y a fairy in ragged clothes came to the rich man's house, but because of the rags he would not let her in. The poor man did let her in when she knocked at his door. The day, after the fairy left, a wonderful gift of gold was set on his doorstep. The rich man was envious and unhappy, but the fairy never came again. FARMER SMITH, Care of the Evenino Ledqbr.

'When the ransom Is paid over to these ngents they will return for us and land us Upon somo Island where otitv friend can And us, or leaving us where wo are, divulge the location of our whereabouts to those who pay tho ran&oht." Tho girl had been looking Intently nt Mr. Divine during their convcrratlon. "They ' cannot hnvo treated you very badly, I,nrry," she said, "YoU nre as well groonud nnd well fed, apparently, as evtr." A slight flush mounting to tho man's face mnde tho girl wonder a bit, though It aroused no suspicion In her mind, "Oh, no," he hastened to nssuro her, "they have not treated me nt nil badly why should they? If 1 die they can collect no rnnsom on me, It Is the same with you, Barbara, so I think you need apprehend no harsh treatment." "I hope you nre right, Larry." she said, but the hopelessness of her air rather belled nny belief that anything but harm could come from cnptlvlty with su..i ns these who ofllcerert and manned the Hilfmoon. "It seems so remarkable," sho went on, "that you should be a prisoner upon the snmo boat. 1 cannot understand Ih Why, only n few days ngo we received nnd en tertained a friend of yours who brought a letter from you to papa tho Count do Cadenet." Again that telltnte flush mantled the man's check. He cursed himself Inwardly for his lack of self-control. Tho girl would have his whole secret out of him In nn other half hour If ho wero not more careful. "They made mo do that." ho said, Jerking his thumb In the general direction of Skip per Slmms' cabin. "Maybe that accounts for their bringing me along. The Count do Cadenet Is a fellow named Therlere. second mnto of thru ship. They sent him to learn your plans; when you expected nailing from Honolulu nnd your course They nro nil crooks nnd villains. If I hadn't dono ns they totd me they would hnvo killed me." The girl mndo no comment, but Dlvlno saw the contempt In her face. "I didn't know thnt they wero going to do this. If I Imit I'd hnvo died before I'd havo written that note," ho ndded rnther lamely. Tho girl wns suddenly looking very sad. Sho was thinking of Billy Mnllory, who had died In nn effort to savo her. Tho mentnl comparison sho wns making between him nnd Mr. Dlvlno wns not overly flatter ing to tho latter gentleman. "They killed poor Billy." sho said nt Inst. "Ho tried to protect mo." Then Mr. Dlvlno understood tho trend of her thoughts. Ho tried to find some excuso for this net; but with the realization of tho true cowardliness nnd treachery of It that tho girl didn't even guess, he grasped the futility of seeking to cxtcnunte It. He saw thnt tho chances wcro excellent that nfter nil he would bo compelled to resort to forco or threats to win her hand nt the last. "Billy would have dono better to havo bowed to tho Inevitable as I did," he said. "Living, I nm able to help you now. Dead, I could not havo prevented them carrying out their Intentions nny moro than Billy hns. nor could I hnvo been hero to nld you now nny moro thnn he Is. I cannot sco that his action helped you to nny grcnt extent, bravo as It was." "Tho memory of It nnd him will always help mo," sho answered quietly. "They will help mo to bear whatever Is beforo me bravely; for I shall always feel that upon tho other sldo a true, bravo heart Is wait ing for me." Tho man was silent. After a moment tho girl spok,o ngaln. "I think I should rnther bo nlone, Larry," sho said. "I am very unhappy nnd nervous. Possibly I could sleep now." With n bow ho turned nnd left tho cabin. For weeks tho Halfmoon kept steadily on her course, a little south of wait. There was no mnterlnl change In the relations of those nboard her. Barbara Harding, finding herself un molested, Anally acceded to tho repeated pleas of Mr. Divine, to whoso society sho had been driven by loneliness nnd fear, nnd appeared on deck frequently during tho day light wntchca. Here one nflernoon sho came face to faco with Therlero for tho first tlmo slnco her abduction. Tho olllcer lifted hln cap deferentially; but tho girl met his look of expectant recognition with a cold, blank staro thnt passed through and beyond him ns though ho hnd been empty nlr. A tlngo of color roso to tho man's face and he continued on his wny for a moment OS though content to accept her rebuff; but nfter n 'jtep or two ho turned suddenly and confronted her. "Mile. Hnrdlng," ho said respectfully. "I cannot hlnme you for tho feeling of distrust which you must have toward me, hut In justice I think you should hear mo beforo Anally condemning." "I cannot Imagine." sho returned coldly, "what defense you can have." "I have been utterly deceived by my employers," said Therlere, hastening to take ndvnntngo of tho tncit permission to ex plain which her reply contnlned. "I was mado to understand that It was all to lio one practical Joke which Mr. Dlvlno wns to play upon his old friends, tho Hnrdtngs. nnd their guests. Until, they wrecked nnd deserted the Lotus In mldocean I had no ,dea that anything elso wns contem plated, although I felt that the matter, oven before that event, had been carried quite fr enough for a Joke. "They explained," he continued, "that before you sailed you wished that some thing really exciting and adventurous would come that you were tired of the humdrum of 20th-century oxlstonce regretted the vanishing of romance from the seas. "Mr. Divine, they told me, was a very wealthy young man to whom you were engaged to be married, and that he could easily afford the great expense of the re markable Joke we were supposed to play. I saw no harm In taking part In It. espe cially as I knew nothing of the supposi tious purpose of the cruise until Just before wo reached Honolulu, Before that I had been led to believe that It was but a pleaB ure trip to the South Pacific that Mr. Divine Intended. "You see, mademoiselle, that I have been as badly deceived as you. Will you not permit that I atone for my error by being your friend? I assure you that you will need one among this shipload of scoun drels." "Whom am I to believe?" cried the girl. "Mr. Divine assures me that he, too, has been forced Into this affair, hut by threats of death rather than deception." The expression on Mr. Therlere's face was eloquent of Barcastlq incredulity. "How about the note of Introduction that I carried to your father from Mr. Divine?" asked Therlere. "He says that he was compelled to write It at the point of a revolver," replied the girl. "Come, with me, Mile. Harding," said the officer. "I think that I" shall convince you that if. Divine is not on such bad terms with Captain Slmms ns he would be If his story to you were true." As he spoko he started toward the com pantonway leading to tho officers' cabins. Barbara Harding hesitated at tho top of the stairway, "Have no fear, mademoiselle," Therlere reassured her", "Remember that I am your friend und that I but seek to prove It to your satisfaction. You owe It to your Belt to discover as soon as possible who your friends are aboaid this ship, and who your enemies." "Very well," said the girl, "I can be tn no more danger one place aboard here than another." Therlere led her directly to his own cabin, cautioning her to allenoe with upraised forefinger. Softly, like sulking criminals, they entered the little compartment. Then Therlere turned and closed the door, slip ping the bolt noiselessly as he did so. Barbara watched him, her heart beating rapidly with fear and suspicion. "Here." whispered Therlere, motioning her toward hla berth, "I have found It advantageous to know what goes on beyond this partition. You will find a small round hole near the head of the berth, about a foot above tha bedding Put your ear to It and listen; I think Divine U tn there now " v (.CONTINUED TOMORROW i PHOTOPLAY CAST GAINS MANY NEW ENTRIES Twenty-four Names Added to the Role of Aspirants to Screen Honors By the Photoplay Kditor Yesterday the list of entries for tho HvENMNrt Ledobr Photoplay Cast Contest took a lively leap ahead.
