PAItT III.
Josephine hiul been working up to
a pitch of excitement all the after
Moon, and as the time for the handicap
nrrlved she was conscious of a nervous
tremor running through her in spite
of herself. Only a few moments be
fore the race was called a note was
linnded her by a messenger, saying
"Do not leave after the races until I
see you. I have found your wheel and
will give it to you myself, provided I
win the handicap race. In that event,
I will hold you to your promise; if I
do not, I will say nothing about It Re
member that you promised to be my
mascot. Nelson."
It wag Impossible for her to con
ceal her delight at the recovery of her
lost wheel. "Oh, I have good news,"
fihe said, In reply to the Inquiring
Glances of her 'friends. "Mr. Scott has
found my blcyclo nnd will give It to
me fa.ff.er the races. It Is almost too
gpod to believe!"
IJastJlJ" borrowing a pencil, she
wr'oj'e l'n reply: "A' thousand thanks for
my wheel. If I am a mascot you are
& wizard you shall win tho race. Jo
sephine." y
The girls fin the box exchanged
glances. "He' Is- a fine-looking man,"
said the girl In the buff topcoat, criti
cally surveying Scott through her field
glasses, "i heard the other day that
he Is going to Australia with that rac
ing team that goes out soon. Do you
know about It, Josephine, but of course
you do, when you are up In everything
nbout cycling?"
"I have a cousin out In Australia,"
Bald the girl In the red roses, "nnd he
likes It awfully. I have an Invitation
to go out there and visit him, but I
don't know about It. How do you
thing you would like such a trip, Jose
phine?" Josephine was spared the reply that
did not rise readily to her lips. The
bell rangv The. track was. clear save
for tho men who- were lined up in
th long, ladder-like lino that stretch
ed from the tape to a point four hun
dred yards in advance, and for th3
men who carefully held tho wheels
with tense muscles, waiting for the
sharp crack of . pistol that should
annour.ce-the cilttcal heat of the han
dicap, and Scott was on the scratch,
while before him a variegated line of
men showed what ho must meet nnd
pass, Is he would qualify In the final.
"You seem to be nervous, Scott,"
said his trainer. "This will never do
Brace up you're better than any other
man on the ladder. Iay low till the
last mile and then ride your best.
The only man you need fear Is Balrd,
and lie Isn't In the best condition to
day. All you have to do Is to hang
to the bunch In the lead and look out
for the man who Is getting ready to
sprint on the home stretch."
There was a long, broken line of
color on the track where the racing
colors of the men were stretched out
for the contest. The excitement of
the grand stand was stilled for the sig
nal. Th'e man on bcratch. threw up his
head and gave one swift glance in the
direction of th boxes and then low
ered it over his wheel with, such an air
as at ancient gladiator might have
awaltel the' rush of his foe in the are
na. In ths boxes one girl was oblivious
to ths subdutd buzz of voices about
her, and say only one man of all tho
group. Thera was a final instant of
bllence, then- th'e timers in the stand
nodded, several officials on the track
stepped to one side, tho st9rter raised
his aim, and a second lator a pistol
rang out sharply on the autumn ntUI
ncss. The men were off like a Hash
their wheels locking for a moment
with tha uncertain vibration of the
start, and then a race for a prize and
mite than a prize was on. A roar of
applause from the grand stand and the
boxes, thf bard broko Into a popular
march. The- ladder wavered and th'en
broke before Josephine's eyes she saw
nothing clearly until tho line of racerf.
passed directly In front of the Judges,'
fctand, and sho saw by the relative
' position of the men that the real strug
gle had not yet commenced, although
she did not feel certain whether the
riders had been once or twice around.
The men were strung out in a straight
lino and were running easily, watching
one another closely and on their guard
for the final mile. It was an Interest
ing but not altogether exciting heat,
although at the end of the fourth mile
the cheers of the multitudes In favor
of Balrd, tho clever local favorite, cre
eled a decided stir. Men and women

stood up in their seats and called to
him.
"Billy" came In all right, and so did
three other men, but Josephine knew
only that Nelson Scott was one, and he
had qualified for the final.
"Why Is a handicap run In heats,
and why are they called heats?" asked
the girl with the red roses.
"Oh, because it's according to the
rules," replied Josephine, absently.
The girl In the red roses and the girl
In the buff topcoat looked at one an
other, and then tho first put up her pro
gramme and whispered to the second,
after which both looked wise and asked
no more questions for some time.
The afternoon sped rapidly away af
ter this. Other events were run off,
but the appetite of the crowd was
whetted for the handicap, and there
was a comparatlce lack of Interest for
the next hour, albeit the sport was
good and the enthusiasm of the spec
tators seemed to communicate a mag
netism to the men on the track. It was
shortly afte five o'olock when the time
arrived for the final contest for the
handicap. Some of the best men in the
country had Qualified for the final in
the second and third heats, and every
one knew that it was a well-matched
trial among first-class professionals.
The winning of a heat for a final does
not alter the position of the men In the
final, and so when they were lined up
in the ladder once more for the trial
that would decide all, the relative po
sition of the men was the same. Scott
was on the scratch again, but he did
not enloy the prestige of Balrd, the
local favorite, who, although he had
run "In and out," as the turf would say,
still held the popular favor something
Inexplicable, by the way, as the su
premacy of many a footlight queen
whose physical charms might alone ex
plain the lack of artistic merit.
Altogether, twelve men had qualified
for the final, and the "ladder" was
made up with one man on scratch and
one each at a dozen different distances
up to three hundred and fifty yards.
The crowd was massed In the closest
possible space to witness tho event,
nnd (he favorites were roundly cheered
as thy took their places on the track,
but, although Scott had his share as he
went out, It was nothing In proportion
to the greeting accorded Balrd.
Again the track was cleared, and a
preliminary hush fell over the ciowd
as the men awaited the signal. Jose
phine had forgotten that she might be
the object of curious scrutiny and
leaned over the edge of the box, know
ing only that all her Interest was cen
tered In one of the men who sat mo
tionless on his wheel, ready to shoot
from the tape like an arrow at a criti
cal instant. Ideas Jostled strangely in
her brain. "Not Australia anything
but that," sho said, to herself. "He
will win the race he must win it
but not Australia."
The last word had scarcely formed
Itself In her mind when she felt a
shock from the starter's pistol. The men
were off, and tho final of the great
handicap race was taking place before
her eyes. Only experienced eyes could
follow the men, as they shot around the
track on the first lap of one-third of
a mile, and keep their relative posi
tions. Stewart led; behind him came
Burrelle, Martin and Balrd, In -the or
der named, and they started out In a
manner that left no doubt that they
Intended to set the pace for the entire
race. The eight other men followed af
ter In no evident haste for the first
mile or so, Scott prudently reserving
himself for developments at the end of
the third or fourth mile.
At the end of the first mile no one
could tell what man had an advan
tage over any other man, for they
ran easily In front of the Judges', stand
in a line. Scott knew that it was a
race, not merely of speed, but of en
durance and ta;tk-s, and, while he did
not relax his gait, he kept a wary eye
on every man ahead of him, with ev
ery muscle rea1y to sprint at full speed
the Instant there was necessity for It.
The second mile was run much the
some as the first, and then the calls
of the spectators Indicated that there
wae a demand for a display of speed.
The men began to warm up. In the
second lap of the thhd mile the four
men In the lead showed a disposition to
creep up on each other, a frame of
mind quickly emulated by those behind,
and the rivalry of the two factions
worked itself out co promptly that a
rapid pace was soon set. At the end of
the third mile a swift race was In pro
gress. The relative positions of the men
were rapidly changlng.and it seemed as
If everyone were rapidly coming up to
his neighbor. Slowly but surely Scott
lessened the distance between himself
and Richards, the man Just ahead of
him. The second lap of tho fourth
mile showed that the men were racing
for records they passed the stand
amid a shout of applause- that must
have stirred the blood In their veins to
renewed effort, If they were not already
making It. As they rounded Into the
backstretch, the grand stand broke out
into a great cheer.for all the men sud
denly seemed to set a new pace, and
sprinted ahead at a gait that set tho
spectators wild. There was a break In
the color line, and, as they turned tha
corner for tho final third of the lonrth
mile, nnd came down the stretch at n
killing pace, there was a roar that
echoed far out beyond the track. The
llrst bunch consisting of Stewart, Bur
rells, Martin and Balrd; the second of
Scott, Richards and six others. As
they rounded the turn for the last lap
after the fourth mile, Scott shot ahead
of the bunch In which he was traveling
and set out closely In the lead of the
second group knowing that his real
struggle would X ' thtre, and when
they passed the stand agaln.lt was evi
dent that he would share In tho contest
on the homo stretch. The grand stand
was excited again, and called loudly
for the favorite, while there wero coun
ter falls for others, Including Scott.
Everybody was standing up a,nd shout
ingJosephine saw half a dozen tracks
circling unevenly before her-all the
color of the solar spectrum swam be
fore her eyes the muncles of. the racers

rounded Into the last turn and came
Into the home stretch at n, reckless
pace. Some one Hlnwe.l .1 man ttll
from his wheel and rolled over on the
track at full length Illtt t s Jrv 'W

A hoar oo roar greeted thent as thoy ap

pocket, deliberately vnitda by the men
of the second group, who had caught

tlrolr wIwpIh In such a mxnner that he
could not yet out,
Balrd waa rapidly leaving the lead
ing group. "Wild and determined to
win at any cost, Scott broke away,
and, with a dangerous but brilliant
burst of speed, he broke through the
pocket with his famous corkscrew
sprint that sent his wheel rocking from
side to side ns though In a heavy wind.
Breaking away from the bunch of rid
ers ho caught up with Balrd and hung
on his rear wheel for a moment. Then
he made a Jump that pasted his op
ronent. It was for a moment only,
Tho tape was but a few yards away
tho grand stand seemed to explode.
Scott rode ns If possessed, and came,
down the hqmn stretch like the wind.
He heard a contused roar, and ki.ew
dimly that ho had won the race, hut all
he thought ol wan a girl's promlsn;
and In one of tho boxes sat th girl,
pale from excitement, with cmo-lous
she did not clearly analyze.
"That was the closest finish of the
whole season," said a florid gentleman
In the next box to Josephine. "By
Jove! I haven't seen anything that
stirred my blood so much for a year."
"What a fine appearance Mr. Scott
makes on his wheel," said the girl
with the red roses. "I never dreamed
that there could be so much excite
ment about a bicycle race. H'd love
to go to a race every day In the week,
and then one learns so much, too.
Josephine, you are really pale. I won
der If the man who was thrown was
much hurt."
The girl made some commonplace re-
Joinder; her thoughts were elsewhere
Just then.
The meet was over, and the ctowd In
the gmnd stand had at last consented
to disintegrate Itself and get ready to
go '-home. People were scattering in
every direction, and in the universal
confusion Josephine's friends were
discovered by an admiring contingent
whose formal invitations to Join them
easily gave Josephine the opportunity
she longed for to slip quietly away.
She had gone no further than the end
of the hexes when she met Scott, his
fare aglow.
"Your wero my mascot," he said,
eagerly. "Are you'ieady to go? Your
wheel is safely stored here under the
ttand, I will get It for you at once, and
wp will go home."
By the time they were under way.
tile eurly twilight had fallen and the
gleam of lights here and there pierced
the light gloom. The animation of their
early conversation died away. Side by
side they wheeled on In the mellow
HgM. The faint crescent on the young
moon hung her bow In the. sky' and
cast a scarcely dlscernable radiance
throuph the trees by the roadway. They
had left the crowded cycle path, and
had turned Into a quiet road that made
a considerable detour through frag
rant ways where tho glow of the gold
en rod enlivened the landscape. Some
thing warmer than the life of the soft
air stirred in Scott's pulses. The girl
by his side sat on her wheel In an easy
ntUltude that revealed the flexile grace
of her form. He reached forward and
touched her tenderly. She startled, and
her wheel swerved slightly. Scott
sprang lightly from his own and drew
her from her seat ero she could re
monstrate. "Listen," he said, his eager arms al
most embracing her, "at last I have
you where you shall not Jest with me
again You promised to help me lay my
plans to go to Australia If I won the
race. I have won it, and I want your
answer will you go to Australia with
me as my wife?"
Something like a quiver ran through

nppeallngly, but ho was relentless.
"Tell mo," ho Insisted. "Will you
go?"
"Yes."
As they wero preparing to mount
again and continue their homeward
way, Josephine's terror of Australia
suddenly returned to her.
"Oh, I don't want to go to that hor
rid county," she exclaimed.
"What horrid country?" asked Scott,
looking up from tho lamp he was light
ing. "Why, Australia, of course. Kvery
body seems to bo suddenly daft about
It, a'nd I have heard nothing but Aus
tralia from every quarter for two
weeks past. I know I shall hate It out
there."
Scott looked at h'er curiously for an
Instant, and then paid sudden and ard
uous attention to his wheel.
"I wouldn't worry about that Just
yet, If I were you."
Josephine was In tho act of mount
ing. As she looked Into his eyes a cer
tain suspicion darted across her mind.
"Nelson Scott," sho said, righteous
indignation quivering in her voice, "I
doh't believe you ever Intended to go to
Australia.

from her brow. .,
"Well, dear, I had to do something'
he said.
THE END.
1IU MAPI: A MISTAKE.
Tho Judgo Tells ofnn Expcricnco In
u l'enii8lvniiia Court.
From tho Detroit 'Free Press.
It was the Judge who was talking.
"One of my most peculiar experiences
was whllo I was on the bench down In
Pennsylvania, Hunk Woddcrs was
brought down from the mountains
charged with stealing a shoat from one
of his neighbors. I had hunted and
fished with the old fellow as a guldo
and felt sorry to see him In trouble.
I asked him If ho wanted a Jury trial.
'"Don't want no trial, 'tall," he re
plied doggedly. I'll Jest plead guilty. I
hain't got no witnesses or no friends.
They'll jlst swear I stole that hog an'
where'll I be?'
"'But did you steal It, Hunk?'
"Didn't steal nuthln. But I kin
take my medicine.' i
"'I'll enter a plea of not guilty and
appoint a lawyer to defend you. You
shall have a chance to prove your In
nocence.' '"I hain't a gain ter foolln' 'round
with no lawyer. I bought that shoat
fi om a feller, an' that's all there are to
It. i
"Then I called him to me and whisp
ered: 'Now, honest. Hunk, between
man and man, did you steal the pig?"
"'Jlst atween you and me, Jedge7'
"'No one elte shall know a word
about it.' ,
" 'Course I did. That there measly
Bill Sims owed me $3 for two years an'
I Jlst lifted th shoat ter get even."
"The case went to trial. The testi
mony against Hunk was strong and I
charged the Jury as fairly as ever I
did In my life, but they acquitted
him.
"Then Hunk came up to me with
flushed face and hanging head. 'Pon
my soul Jedge, I didn't mean fur ter
tell you a He. I thought I stole that
shoat, but it 'pears I didn't."'

SAYINQS OP JEFFERSON.
Tho day 1s not distant when we may
formally require a meridian of partition
through tho ocean which separates the
two hemispheres, on the hither side of
which no Uuropean gun shall ever be
heard nor on American on the vother; and
when, during tho ragoof tho eternal wars
of Europe, tho lion and tho lamb, within
our regions, shall Ho down' together In
pence.
We owe gratitude to France; Justice to
England; good will to all; subservience to
none,
I fear nothing from force, but I have felt
much and fear more from English books,
English prejudices, English maimers, and
tha opes, tho dupes, and designers among
our own professional classes.
Tho government which can wield tha
arm of the people must bo the strongest
tosslble.
I do not mean to say that it may not bo
for tho general interest to foster for
awhllo certain Infant manufactures until
they aro strong enough to stand against
foreign rivals, but when evident that they
will never be so, it is against right to
make other branches of industry support
them.
Tho great principles of right and wrong
are legible to every reader! to pursue
them requires not tho aid of many coun
sellors. I have over looked on Cuba as the most
Interesting addition which could be made
to our system of Btatcs.
Where tho press Is free, and every man
able to lead, all Is safe.
Banking establishments are more dan
gerous than standing armies.
Were we directed from Washington
when to sow and when to reap, we should
soon want bread.
Tho wholo art of government consists In
the art of being honest.
Tho tlmo to guard against corruption
and tyranny 13 befcro they have golttn
hold of us.
As to the tariff, I should say put down
all banks, admit none but a metallic cir
culation that will take its proper level
with the like circulation In other coun
tries, and then our manufactures may
work in fair competition with those of
other countries, and tho import duties
which the government may lay for the
purpose of revenue will 60 far place them
above equal competition.
It Is not by the consolidation of concen
tration of powers, but by their distribu
tion, that good government is effected.
An nrisocracy of wealth la of more harm
and danger than benflt to eoclcty.
No ground of support for tho Executive
will ever be so suro as a complete: knowl
edge of their proceedings by tho people.
I thiol: all tho world would gain by
setting commerce at perfect liberty.
A Judiciary Independent of a king or
executive alone Is a good thing; but In
dependent of the will of the nation Is a
solecism, at least In a republican govern
ment. The proportion between the values of
goM and silver is a mercantile problem
altogether.
Nothing Is so Important as that Ameri
ca shall separate herself from the systems
of Europe and establish one of her own.
Our circumstances, our pursuits, our In
terests are distinct; the principles of our
policy should bo so also. AH entangle
ments with that quarter of the globe
should bo avoided If we mean that peace
and Justice shall be the polar stars of the
American societies.
