Arthur Ramsey, a line, humlsome young
Mlow, uinl u graduate of a western bbiI
riiliural cullK. I'oniM 10 the city of Keil

citizen of Hi. I Kui-k, who kIvc him a
, lilowiniip's position on his ranch near the
City. There Arthur meets with many hu
miliations, ami is particularly enraged
by tiie patronizing aim of Thayer's Knx

turns out to be a good fellow, iiniiari-us.

ImkIii work on his chores one evening n
party of Thayer's friends come out from
the city to look iit-jut the farm, among
Diem u lovely youtiK alrl from Wosliliia
.n. Killvh. the major's niece, to whom
Arthur's attention Is at once drawn. She
also seems to be Impressed by his appeur
iince. I'ARTII.
"tilt, (In you drive the horses?" she
Rskml quickly.
"Yes. fur the present I am the ilov
man," he said, in the wish to let hr
know hf wan not a common hand. Her
eyes rested a moment longer on Ills
sturdy . Hi? lire and his heuutifully
brtmxeti skin, then she turned away.
After they hnd driven away Arthur
finished his work In silence; he could
hardly britiR himself to speak to the
horses, his mind was In such a ttomult.
H went up to his little room nnd sut
'.down, l'acl lit; thi? glorious mountains:
and he sat there until the engullltiR
gloom of rising night climbed to the
glitterltiR cruvwi of white, souring
7.000 feet above the twinkling lights
(of the city. He did not see the moun
tains; his eyes only turned toward
vthem as a cat faces the light of a
hearth; it helped him to think, sotne
llow. He was naturally keen, sensitive and
impressionable; his mind worked
liilckly. for he had read u great deal
und held his reading ut command.
Ills thought concerned Itself llrst of
nil with the uttlttidt these people as
sumed toward him. It was perfectly
evident that they regurded him as a
creature of inferior sort. He was their
servant.
(t made him turn hot to think how
terribly this contrasted with the flam
boyant phraseology of his graduating
nrutlMi.
He came back fur relief to the face
of the girl, the girl who looked at him
without scorn.
The Impression she ninde on him was
one of daintiness and light. Her euger
face and her sweet voice, almost child
ish in its thin quality, appealed to him
with singular forcp.
She was strange to him. In accent and
like; she was good nnd sweet, he felt
sure of that, but she seemed so far
uway In her manner of thought. He
wished he had been dressed a little bet
ter: his oltl hat troubled him especially.
The girls he had known, even the
daintiest of them, could drive horses
and were not afraid of cows. Their

were alien to him.
Vn she a girl'.' Sometimes she
seemed a woman when her face so
bered a moment then again she
peemed a child. It was this c nun ire of
ipreHsiurr that bewildered and fasci
nated him.
Then her lips were so scurlet and her
level brown eyebrows wavered about
so beautifully. Knmetlmes one would

lie came tit lust to the strangest
thing of all; she hud looked at lit in
every time he spoke, as if she were sur
prised nt finding herself unable to un
derstand him.
He worked If all out at last. They
nil looked upon him as belonging to the
American peasantry; he belonged to a
lower world, a world of service.
Sanllsbtiry and Mrs. Thayer were
perfectly frank about It; they spoke
from the Kngllsh standpoint. The mn-
Jor and Mrs. Hutilisbury hud been
touched by the western spirit and were
trying to be Just to him, with more or
less patronizatlon.
As his thoughts ran on his fury eame
hack and he hammered and groaned
and cursed as he tossed to and fro on
his bed, determined to go back where
the American Ideas still held.
These spring days were days of
growth to the young man. He grew
older and more thoughtful and seldom
(oked with the other men.
There came to the surface moods
which he had not known tiefore. There
came times when his teeth set together
like the clutch of a' woif. as some ele

his Inherited nature.
Ills father had been a rather morose
man. Jealous of his rights, quick to
anger, but Just In his Impulses. Arthur
had Inherited these stronger traits, nut
they had been covered up by the smiling
exterior ot youth.
Kdith came up nearly every day with
the major in order to enjoy the air and
beauty of the sunshine, and when she
did not come near enough to nod to
Arthur life was a weary treadmill for
the rest of the day. and the mountains
became mere stacks of gloomy debris.
Sometimes she sat on the porch with
the children while Mrs. Kichnrds. the
foreman's wife, a hearty, talkativ
woman, piled her with milk and
cookies. ,
"It must be heaven to live here and
feed the chickens and cows," the young
girl said one day when Arthur was
passing by quite accidentally.
Mrs. KIchards took a seat, wiping her
face on her apron. ' al, 1 don t know

nnd tendin' on a mess of em; It don't
edgleute a feller much. Does It. Art?"
"We don't do It for play, exactly," he
replied, taking a seat on the porch
steps and smiling up at Kdith: "I can't
stand cows. 1 like horses, though. Of
course, If I were foreman of the dairy
that would be another thing.
The flower-like piii looked down at
him witli a strnnge glunce. Something
rose In her heart that sobered her. She
studied the cletir brown of his face, and
the white of his forelvond, where his
hat shielded It from the sun and the
wind. The spread of his strong neck
and the clutch of his brown hands at
traded her.
"How stroiifr you look," she said, mus
lngly.
He laughed up at her In frank plena
ure, "Well, I'm not out here for my
health exactly, although when I came
here I was pretty tender. 1 was Just
out of college. In fact." he said, glad of
the chance to let her know that he was
not an ignorant worklngman.
She looked us surprised and tileased.
"Oh. you're a college man! I have two
brothers at Yale. One of them plnys
nan back or shortstop or something.
Of course you played?"
"Baseball? Yes, I wns pitcher for
H8. He heaved a sigh. He could not
think of those blessed days without sor
row. "oil, I didn't mean base ball, I mean
foot ball."
"We don't play that much In the west.
We go in more for base ball; more
science."
oh. 1 like foot ball best, It's so lively.
I like to see them when they get all
bunched up, they look so funny, and
then when some fellow gets the ball
under his arms, arid goes skootlng
around with the rest' all Jumping at
Mm. Oh, oh, it's exciting!"
She smiled and her leeth shone from
her scarlet li'is with a more familiar
expression than he had seen on her face
before. Some wall of reserve had melt
ed away und they chatted on with
growing freedom.
"Well. Kdith are you ready?" asked
the major, coming up.
Arthur sprung up us If he suddenly
remembered that he was a working
man. Kdith rose also. "Yes, all ready,
uncle."
"Well, we'll be going In a minute.
Mr. Kamsey, do you think that millet
has got water enough?"
"Fur the present, yes. The ground Is
lint so dry us (l liioks."
As they talked on ubout the farm
Mrs. Richards brought him out a glass
Of milk.
Arthur with nice calculation un
hitched the horse and brought it
around while the mujor was detained.
"May 1 help you In. Miss Newell?"
She gave him her hand with a frank
gesture, and the major reached the cart
Just as she was taking the lines from
Arthur.
"Are you coming?" she gaily cried,
"If not, I'll drive home by myself."
"You mean you'd hold the lines."
"No, sit', 1 can drive, if I have a
chance."
"That's what the American girl Is
saying these days."
"Well. I'm going to begin light now
and drive all the way home."
As they drove off she Mashed a roguish
glance back nt Arthur, a smile which
shadowed swiftly Into a look which had
a certain apjie'al In It. He was very
handsome In his working dress.
All the rest of the day that look was
with him. He could not understand It,
though her mood while seated upon the
porch was perfectly comprehensible.
The following . Sunduy morning he
saddled up one of the horses and went
down to chUH-h. Hereasoned she would
attend the Kpiscopal service, and he had
the pleasure of seeing: her pass up the
aisle most exquisitely dressed.
This feelinjr of pleasure was turned
to sadness by sober second thought.
Added to. the prostration before his
Ideal, was the feeling that she belonged
to another world a world of pleasure
and wealth, world without work or
worry. This feeling was strengthened
by the atmosphere of the beautiful lit
tle church. Cra grant with flowers, deli
cately shadowed. tremulous with
music. -
He rode home In deer meditation It
was curious -how subjective he was be
coming. Hhe had not seen him there,
and his trip larked so much of being a
success. Mfe seemed hardly worth liv
ing as he took off his best suit and went
out to feed the horses.
The men soon observed the regularity
of these Sunday exsurslons and the
word was passed around that Arthur
went down to see his girl, and they set
themselves to find out who It was. They
did not suspect, that It was the major's
niece.
It was a keen and savage delight to
see her. even at that distance. To get
one look from her or to see her eye
lashes fall over her brown eyes paid
him for alt his trouble, and yet It left
him hungrier at heart than before. -
Sometime he got seated In such wise
that he could see the fine line of her
cheek and chin. .He noticed also that
her growing; color the free life she
lived In the face of the mountain winds
was doing her good.
Sometimes he- went at night to the
song service and his rides home alone
on the plain, with the shadowy moun
tains over there massed In the starlit
sky, were most wonderful experiences.
As he rose and fell on his broncho's
steady gallop, he took off his hat and let
the wind stlr.hU hair. Riding thus,
exulted thus, one night he shaped a des
perate resolution: he determined to call
on her just as he would un a girl at Vtro
i;uy with whom he wm on the same In
timacy of footing. '
He was as guod as any rlass, he was
not as good a she was. for he lacked
her sweetness and purity of heart, and
because she lived in a (treat house and
wore beautiful garments did not shut
him off from calling upon her.
But week after week went by with
out his daring to make his resolution
good. He determined many times to
axil permission to cull, but somehow
he never did.
He seemed t aee hr rather less than
ut llrst, and on her urt there was a
change. She seemed to have lost her
llrst eager and frank curiosity about
him, and did not always smile now
when she met him. f
Then, again, lie could not. in working;
dress ask to call: It would seem so inl
congruous to stand before her to make
such a request, covered with perspira
tion and dVt. 1 1 was hard to be dig
nified under Btich circumstances; he
must be washed and dressed properly.
In the meantime, the men had dis
covered how matters; xtood. and some
of them trade very free with the whole
situation. Two of them especially hated
him.
These two men had drifted to the
farm from the mine somewhere, and
were rough, hard characters. They
would have come to blows with him,
only they knew something of the
power lying colled in his long arms.
One day he overheard one of the men
speaking of Kdith. and his tone stopped
the blood li Arthur's) heart. When he
walked among the group of men, his
face was white and ttet.
"You take that back." he said, in a
low voice. "You take that back, or I'll
kill you light where you stand."
"Do him up, Tim.' shouted the other
rurlian. but Tim hesitated.
"I'll do him then." said the other
man; "I owe him one myself."

WALL STREET REVIEW
New York, Jan. 15. The great topic of
Vise ussion In financial circles today was
the dissolution of the Morgan bond syn
dicate. The dissolution or the syndicate
would have had an important bearing on
the market for securities had It not been
for the manner in which the head of the
combination of bankers and capitalists
handled the matter. Mr. Morgan s expian

official notice of the retirement at the syn
dicate from the Held set at rest any doubts
that may have been entertained that iho

WHY THERE CAN BE NO WAR.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
(treat Britain will not enguge the United
states in war for two auflicient reasons.
Flr&t, because she is dependent on for
eign soil for more than balf her food sup
ply. Hecondly, because In addition to
starvation ner people would pe tnreatenea
wiui paralysis ot tnelr industry.
It has been suggested that both food and
raw cotiton might escape the .perils of
such a war by being carried In neutral
ships. This expedient England herself
knows well would be worthless. In 1856
the I'nlted States was willing to secure
by international compact the Immunity of
an private property at sea. ureal Britain
refused to consent. This is one of the in
stances that prove ho vastly it would
have been to her advantage to let the
t nued states add one more chapter to in.
ternatlonal law. Even If the lirltlsh mer
chandise were transferred to foreign flam
it would not be Immune unless the trans
fers were actually made before the out
break of war, which Is clearly impossible,
When, last year, the question cf
streugtnening tne urittsn navy was up on
fore parliament and the country, the 1-on-
don Times said: "Our own maritime com
merce Is our life blood. To arrest Its flow
means nothing less than dissolution of the
body politic. It must be carried under the
Hrltlsh flag if It is to be carried at all.
There Is not tonnaae enough in the world
to carry it under any other flag, even If
Its transfer to a neutral Hag were likely to
be respected by a belligerent whosa
strength at sea had rendered such a trans
fer expedient. Lawrence In "The Kx
emption of Private Property From Cap
ture at sea, says: "We Che Hrltlsli)
have all the seas of the world to oatrol.
It Is not a question of naval superiority,
out or naval omnipotence."
Should Ureal Britain emraae In a for
eign war involving any power having
means of attacking; her on the sea, that
power, wrote OefTcken a few months duo.
before there was any danger from the
I'nlted States, would "know perfectly well
that the necessity of importing food and
raw material is Knglanils most vulner
able, point." Boyd Klnnear told Oreat
Britain a few years ago: "If our com
merce by sea. Is stopped we perish by star
vation." Kngland could manage to get
cotton In as private property in neutral
oottoms, sne wouiu lose gradually tne. rood
supply from this country, which could not
be made up by any other; and even if she
cot rood enough into her harbors, her ueo
pie would not have money with which to
buy It, for her exports would be com
pletely stopped, partly by actual peril nf
capture and partly by reason of the timid
ity of capital that would not incur the
risk.
But could she get cotton? It has been
Intimated that she is not seriously de
pendent now upon the I'nlted States for
ner cnier 'textile import. Here, however,
are the figures:
Percentage of Imports of raw cotton
rrom the l tilted states into the l nlted
Kingdom,
1881 65.19
1870 53.4S
1880 75.18
1890 7:t.44
1894 77.91
In the face of these llnures and facts It
seems Idle to make arrangements to tight
Oreat Britain. A country that, by declar
ing war upon the United States or making
it necessary that we should make war
upon tier, would run tne double risk or
industrial paralysis and starvation, would
be committing suicide. As the lotulon
Times said, "it would be dissolution ot
the body politic."
mere will be no war.
ONE ON TIIE PRINCE. ,
"Did you ever hear how the Prince of
Wales asked the sultan to go and see, the
Derby run?" asked Orlando Joues at the
Araaon last evening. "Well, It was this
wise: The race for the Derby was about
to be run, and as the sultan was then visit
ing Kugland and the prince sent one of his
lorus-iii-waiting to inquire or tne eastern
potentate would like to go and witness the
classic contest. The son of the moon and
stars was seated propped up by cushions
smoking placidly when the royal emissary
was ushered into his presence.
"His Royal Highness bids me ask your
Majesty If It would please you to witness
the race for the Derby?" said he, bowing
low.
Dona his Royal Highness mean that I
should go and see a horse race?" Inquired
tne suitan manuiy.
'He does, your highness.
'Tell the prince that I cannot do so.' re
plied the ruler of the faithful. 'Why should
l want lo go : All men wlio are not roola
know that some horses are swifter than
others.' "Atlanta Journal.
