SUMMER residents at Bar Harbor are
still talking of the really lovely night
pageant held on the lawn of the Swim
ming Club thero THursday evening. It
as an evening of dancea, fittingly termed
Terpsichore" by John Murray Anderson,
rho devised and Btaged It under tho d.
rectlon of Mrs. William Lawrence Green,
and represented tho progress of the dance
through four ages. Tho prologue, which
eras written by John Kendrlck Bangs,
ivas read by Enid Howland, and then fol
lowed the dancea of nntlqulty, Jlrst tho
Egyptian and then, the Grecian. The role
cf Torpslchore wos taken by Constanco
Blnneyi she, you will remember, danced
jn this city nt several charitable per
formances during last season. She h a
jileco of Mrs. Georgo Dunning, who, In
spits of the heat, hns been working away
for the BUffrogo cause during tho Bum
rner. The first danco of tho Renaissance was
the gavotte, executed gracefully by
I'ranccs and I-ota Sullivan, and this was
followed by a Minuet tie la Coeur, In
which Edith Grade. Charlotto Delalleld,
Sylvia Van Rensselaer and Helen Smith
tools part.
Kntherlno Forco, Mrs. Dick's Bister,
and Georgia Schotlcld appeared In tho
nineteenth century group. Tho lattor
commanded ono of tho companies at tho
National Service School for Women, held
'at Chevy Chaso In May. I uso tho word
commanded advisedly, for ono heard many
rumors of her Spartan methods while
captain of Company C. It was told an
a good one on her that when ono of tho
rookies, having sprained her ankle, re
ported tho fact to her youthful captain,
the latter, tired of hearing about sprained
ankles so closo to exhibition day, was
heard to murmur "Darn" under her
breath. I do not know whether tho un
fortunato rooklo had her town leave
taken nwny or was summarily dismissed.
Howover, to get back to Thursday
night's pageant, I understand there was
julto a representative gathering present,
Including tho Chnrlle Wrights, from, this

FARMER SMITH'S
WHAT ARE
Dearest Children We want so much to know how you aro spending your
vacation.
The most terrible vacation is one whero you have nothing to do. That
dear brain of yours starts buzzing and pretty soon your body is neglected
and then your mind and body get upset.
KEEP BUSY.
Walking 'is free and you can at least take a walk and the gentle swing
of your body will keep step with your thoughts.
Find something to do.
If you really want to find something to keep you busy it will surely come
along.
If you cannot go away for your vacation, take a vacation right where
you are in the nearest park or square,
Get acquainted with the library and its wonderful books.
Farmer Smith's Rainbow Club has undertaken the gipantic task of keep
ing children busy and interested. It is bound to succeed -because there is a
demand for just such a club and it is growing and growing.
Sit I?own NOW and write to me. Tell me what you are doing. You will
feel better for having written.

CHAPTIlIt XIV (Continued).
DE NETZE approaching at that moment,
tho Burgeon reopened his caso of In
struments with professional nlncrlty
"Your own wound, sir?" ho suggested.
"Nothing of consequence." asserted tho
Russian. "The man struck wildly, nnd tho
knife penetrated tho lleshy part of my
shoulder. I will bandage It myself nt a
more suitable time. Thank you, monsieur.
China shut his caso with a disappointed
snnp.
"Mrs. Morchcstcr?" Julia called.
"Yes, Julla7"
"Wo will go on up to tho hall now, If
you please. Fritz nnd Eunice will accom
pany us. And may I requisition your man.
Mr. Sovrance? Grady might help Fritz back
with the litter. It hns been decided," sho
explained, "that It would bo too dangerous
to attempt to remove Captain von Holz

cnirj out our original purpose, therefore,

venttiro to ask Mr. Traill and Mr. Sev

rho concluded, with a wan, pitiful aimula
tl .n of her smile.
Thero was, of course, no question ns to
that. In tho mcnntlmo. It was decided Bho
was to go on in company with the servants
and Mrs. Morchcstcr, while Sovrance nnd I,
by special request of Von Ilolzborn, wero
asked to i emaln and help guard that gentle
man against further attack, should there
b,i any.
If I had had my way about It, I should
havo announced my Intention of letting him
go to the devil nt his convenience nnd
throtigh whatever agent Providence might
designate. Such nn announcement being, to
say tho least, Inadvisable, as well as In
human, I schooled myself to a silent
acquiescence.
CHAl'TIIH XV.
Ciipturo nnd Kscnpe.
THERE was a little bustlo and confusion ;
and then my Heart's Derlrc, with her
party, moved away and was swallowed up
In tho shadows of tho woodland. Chine
returned to his patient, whom Captain Keen
had never left. Tho seamen from the
Myosotii huddled together at a distance,
gossiping In undertones.
After a while Keen nrose and issued a
succession of orders, which they sprang
with alacrity to obey, seizing tho bodies
of the dead men nnd carrying them quickly
down the stairs to the beach below. De
Netzo explained this matter qulto plausibly.
It was ndvlsablc, he said, that tho affair
should bo kept as quiet as possible It
wos for that reason alone, for Instance
that her ladyship had given orders that no
moio thin three trusted servants of tho
family should be employed about Saltacres
Hall during this clandestine visit. .
"I am desolated," said the Russian, "to
think that I Bhould bo the cause of such
troublo to my most kind friends. It Is
useless to disguise the fact that all this was
arranged on my account nlono ; we could
Imagine no more safe hiding placo In all
England than this same Saltacres Hall.
But It seems that they tracked us oven
ftere." Ho sighed wearily. "Now, theso
canaille," he continued, Indicating the bodies
with a scornful wavo of his hand, "are to
oe carried out to sea and burled with a
weight at the feet of each. Then thero
will remain no dead men to tell tales upon
as." He laughed unpleasantly.
"What Is the motive for this perslstont
Jeslro for your life?" Sovrance asked. 'That
rs, If I am not asking too much "
"Ah! not In tho least, monsieur! To
YOU DOING?
To Mary Owen
"Not a little boy at all.
Just Mar-;
And pot neither awful small,"
Says Mary,
When she flashes eyes deep blue
There's nary
King who will not listen to
Just Mary.

fhe contrary what have I to hide? You
are aware that my services aro held In
omc slight esteem by his Majesty tho Czar.
So ! My life Is, therefore, a thing obnoxious
to the Secret Chapter of tho revolutionary
party."
"Why didn't they shoot you outright,
men?"
"They wished to tnka me ntlve. nnd to
Acop me so, for n time. As to the end
I havo no doubts nt all 1 But, while living,
they might have persuaded me to talk more
fhan I would out of captivity."
"Persuade?" said Sovrance.
"Even today there are methods of per
funilon," said De Nclzo calmly, "not In
ferior to those practiced by the Inquisition,
mrs nmi.."
In due course Grady nnd Fritz returned
ivlth n litter. Von Holzborti wns laid upon
It, groaning pitifully, Chlno ndmlnlste-.ed
n stimulant, the party bado farewvll to
Captain Keen nnd turned toward Saltacres
Hnll, accompanied by tho surgeon and three
sailors from tho yacht
If any member of the mysterious Secret
Chapter lurked about, he wns at pains not
to make his presence known. Before start
ing Grady found time to Inform me that
Thompson, the lodge keeper, had seen nn
automobile pass the lodge, northbound, with
a bareheaded man for Its solo passenger,
some ten minutes or so after the probable
time of the encounter on tho cliff.
It but confirmed our suspicions that one
of tho nss.isslns had made goort his escape.
Tho Russian's brow furrowed with
anxiety when I Informed him of this Inci
dent. Nevertheless, ho maintained, wo wero
assured of three or four days' respite from
further annoyance or nsrnult. It would tnko
some time, he wns confident, to assemble In
our neighborhood enough members of the
revolutionary party then In England
enough for a successful nttnek upon our
party, he nmended. Thero would be plenty
of time to dcvlso a way out of the diffi
culty. Our arrlvnl at tho Hall was devoid of
Incident. Von Ilolzborn wns at onco car
ried upstairs to n bedchamber assigned to
his use, Do Netzo accompanying him with
the surgeon. Sevrnnco nnd I were left
standing below In the greal hallwav. warm
ing ourselves In tho grateful heat of tho
flro that blazed In tho huge, old-fashioned
chimney. I remember feeling awkward
and out of place.
After a long time the housekeeper, an
aged nnd withered body, plainly half fright
ened out of her wits, nppronched us nnd
mado her ladyship's excuses for the seem
ing Inhospltnllty of our reception. Her
ladyship was unnerved and almost In
hysterics becauso of the dreadful strain
she had endured, tho woman told us. nnd
begged to be excused until the following
morning.
In tho menntlme, wo were Informed, our
rooms wero being propnred for our recep
tion ; wo would bo shown to them nftcr sup
per; wo acquiesced apathetically, too weary
for words.
Supper was served us alono In tho break
fast rot m. Grady attended : ho hnd no
news : he had been given to understand
that his room was prefcrablo to his com
pany. It seomed, promptly upon tho arrival
of tho litter In Von Holzborn's npartment.
Do Netze, however, had told tho Irishman
oft for sentry duty during tho night a
task which ho was to share with tho seamen
from tho Mlionoth.
A bucolic lackey lighted Sovrance and
myself to our rooms. They proved adjoin
ing ones, In, I gathered, n remote wing of
the building. Sevrnnco did not remember
ever having ontcrod either beforo; nnd tho
darkness of tho night together with my
own totnl unfnmlllarlty with tho placo mado
It Impossible for mo to determine precisely
whore they wero situate.
However, they wero large, they wero
heated, and each contained a roomy, old
fashioned bed. Shortly after wo began to
undress Grndy appeared with a lot of toddy,
which, he said, Doctor Chine had suggested
might bo acceptable. Wo proved tho truth
of hit supposition by downing tlio draught
without much ceremony.
Bctweon Its fumes nnd my overpowering
fatigue, I fell Into a dreamless slumber In
the twinkling of nn eyo. Sevranco asserts
that tho case wan tho same with him. I
doubt If a thunderbolt falling squarely In
cither of- the rooms would have roused us
ero wo had slept tho appointed length of
time. i
I nwoko In semldarkness, nnd for n few
minutes lay drowsily speculating on my
whereabouts, with an odd feeling that
something was amiss. Mentally I was back
In our cheerless quarters at tho Rainbow.
Then, with a rush, the Incidents of tho
preceding da crowded Into my mind, and
you may bo'levo that I w.ii out of bed In
two shakes, wli'o awako and anxious enough
to be dressed and about, already foreseeing
the long and Int'matc talk with Julia which
I purposed fhould bo mine tomo time during
that day.
Tho shades wero drawn at the windows,
and tho big rorm was quite gloomy. I could
not even eo the fnco nf my watch dis
tinctly. After hunting uselessly nbout for
a match for n moment or two, I acted upon
a sudden Hash of Intelligence nnd, going to
the window, drew up tho shades.

flood athwart the floor. A. day of surpass
ing beauty hal dawned upon the land. The
world lay quietly bashing ,ln the clear, cold
glory of tho tun. Above the naked tree
tops the sky was of a perfect azure, deep
and rlcht and so pure was the atmosphere
after the storms nnd fog of the last two
or three days that tho horizon, formed by
the uptlung contour of tho fair Inland
chalk hills, loomed as precise and definite ns
though It hnd been but h.tlf n mile away.
From tho chimney of the gato keeper's
lodge, which I could Just get a glimpse of
through Interstices In tho Intervening trees,
a thin, whl'rf curl of smoke wns tinwlv
rising; In air so Immaculately clear It
shono with u Irosiy glitter ami sevuiuU ni
most substantial. But, so far as I coutd
dctcrmlno from my window, which you
gnthor lookel toward tho road, there was
no ono nbout.
Doubtless, t considered, they would bo at
breakfast. 1 tried to icmtmbcr n call nt
my door, but without success. H struck mo
ns odd that Oindy hnd not summoned us In
tlmo to dross for the morning meal.
Abruptly I noticed that the sun wns very
high In tho l-.-avens. From Its position one
would have Judged tho hour as near noon.
Somewhat disturbed, I stepped back to the
bureau and again took up my watch. To
my infinite dismay tho hands registered
tho hour of one In tho nftcinoon.
I stood listening Intently; It struck me
that tho Hall was strangely silent for so
lato an hour nf tho day. Surely somo ono
should tw nnout. the footstens of tho house
keeper or of tho sennnts nudlblo In those
ancient, sounding corridors.
Alarmed, I rushed Into Scvrance's room
nnd pulled asldo tho curtains of his bed.
tie wns sleor.'ng peacefuly, flat on his back,
with ono hand across his eyes.
A suspicion of the truth entered into my
mind and mado me cold wltn fear. I seized
tho unconscious man by tho nrm, uncover
ing h s eyes, nnd shook him rudely, shout
ing In his en-.
Finally my efforts wero rewarded by a
muttered cirsc. Tho man stirred sleepily
beneath tho bedclothes and sworo mum
bllngly nt me In Grady's name. He did
not wish to be disturbed, l.o nnnounced, nnd
I was d.schargcd could take my fortnight's
notice.
In desperation I seized tho bedding nnd
flung It off 1,1m. Then, running to tho
wnshstand, I found a pitcher half full of
Icy water, and dousod Ids head with It.
Sevranco snt up w.th a bowl nnd struck
aimlessly nt nir. I threw him n towel from
a safo dlstaiiLO and babbled of my fears.
Ho sat on the edgo of tho bed, resentful
and sullen, alternately rubbing tho sleep
out of his evvri nnd tho water Out of his
hair. In the end ho delivered himself of n
dollbcrato opinion
"Didn't uako us. eh? And you'ro hopping
mad, aro you? Well, now, I caJl It un
common consldernto of 'em. You go on Into
your own room nnd dress, nnd don't bo such
an everlasting bnlly ass. Gordon I"
Nevertheless, I noticed ho wns not a
mlnuto behind me In getting Into his clothes.

'Where's the key?" I demanded frantically,
"The key? I had no key, Gordon I"
What I"
I rushed Into my room, the door of which
likewise opened upon tho hall. Thai I to
say, under ordinary circumstances It wi
to be expected to open upon tha hat!, 'lit
this case it Imitated tho example- of Ott'
ranee's, nnd remained obstinately closed.
I gave up yanking nt the knob and turned
to Sovrance.
"Now, who's tho bally ass?" I demandt
angrily, ready to pick a quarrel with my
best friend on earth.
"Wo both are," he considered, "I think
wefe born foo's. Can't you pull that In
fernal knob off?"
"No," I Bald, In black despair. "They'vo;
got Us fast for the tlma being. We're
tricked duped 1"
"Neatly," ho (crumbled. "Thnt Indv
ydu remember Chine gave it to Grady?'
"What's become of Grady, then?" t asked,
"Have they made way with him?"
"Devil n bit do I know, Oordon. I should
not bo surprised at anything now, tut I'll
stake everything on Grady's loyalty. It's
likely that hot toddy did for him, as for
us. Here, now. let's think a minute. There
must be a bell. Surely the servants will
answer "
He darted across tho room and pulled
furiously nt a silken bell ropo which hung
from tho celling. Listening attentively at
tho door, I fancied that I heard i faint,
far Jangling. But otherwise there Was no
response. Though wo walled ever so long,
there enmo no echo of footsteps In tho cor
ridor without.
After some tlmo Sevranco succeeded In
breaking tho bell pull. Ho was for going
Into tho farther room and practicing upon
tho one there, but I dissuaded him.
"What's tho uso of that? No ono wilt
nnswer. You'ro only wnstlng energy. They
havo locked us up for a purpose, nnd we'ro
not to be let out until they're ready."
"Wo'll see nbout that I" cried Sovranca
savagely, running to tho window and jerk
ing up tho sash with a bang.
A flood of brisk nlr streamed In as ha
leaned forth. I Joined him.
"Well?"
"Thirty-foot clear drop to tho ground,
nnd a tanglo of cucumber frames to break
your fall nt that," ho snapped. "This settles
It I can't sny that I am pleased with tho
prospect of violating the laws of hospitality,
so far as Involves tho guest, Gordon, you
know, but "
I could see that ho had nn Idea, and T let
him nlone, merely nssumlng nn expectant
expression.
"But you know," he continued, expost
ulating In nn argumentative tone, shaking
his finger Under my noso, "thero aro certain
