NO ONE Hceinud to know who
Mr. Hurntnll wrm, or why
ho had Rfittli'd 111 Henth
Holloe. Hu drovu ll) oiio
iliiy It was thought from
London In a conch with a
inn n HiTvnnt, nnil tnnny
biaso-houiut boxes with the
hiiipII or the hpii on them followed hlin.
Thuie wuh not mlirh to be deduced
from then1, but n vIIIiiro must have Its

In his Rtent stature and hardlhood.wlth
llnshlnc eyes and a bush of Iron-Bray
hair unthlnned by his nee. the Rosslp
about him Kl-ew.
It was aliened that he lintl been a
taeniber of a hell-lire club In the bad
old days, and for that nnd other vill
ainies transported to Uotany Hay,
whet he had made an immense for
tuneall kept In the brass-bound boxes
by running the bush. The wiseacres
vowed It was Impossible to reveal his
monstrous language and the Ills of
fury that disturbed the walls of Heath
House nt certain times when, as they
declared, the old baresark convict spirit
took him and shook him to u thunder
and lightning of Irrevocable anger.
Their listeners oh'd and nh'd, uml
would have given their ears to bo pres
ent nt an exhibition of It.
I give these rumors, not because they
turned out to be true, for they were
mostly false, but because they led up
to the only Instance of Mr. Hurstall's
fury that I ant acquainted with nnd
justified It. Kor, ns I discovered, most
of his 111 repute was duo to the tongue
of Michael Forney. People bore with
this fellow because he was a county
man and known known Indeed to be
fairly dissipated, vulgar, too, nnd
coarse-minded but known. And In a
county familiarity breeds tolerance. So
thut George "Wlnton, who was now
'squire, even encouraged him to dangle
after Eva, and was set In bis priggish
way against any attentions being
ehown to the owner of Heath House,
merely because Ferney disapproved of
him. Dorothea Wlnton and I, being
engaged, disapproved -of Ferney still
more strongly, and for that reason nnd
because. Mr. Uurstall had conllded to
mo hla ileslre to maku the Wlntons'
acquaintance, we set ourselves to per
suade George.
"I shall bring the old man over to
lunch with you tomorrow," I said.
"Doesn't be drink?" said Wlnton.
"Like a Ilsh," I said.
"Well, then, you must see that "
"He can stand It, which is more than
some people can," I said.
The Idea of sottlshness us the mark
of polite education was beginning to
go out of fashion then, though Ferney
was somewhat behind the times.
"You forget," said Wlnton, reprov
ingly, "that my sisters are not accus
tomed to the society of convicts."
"Gossip!" I said. "He's a gentle
man.' "He's a dear!" said Dorothea, "and
ve shall expect hlin tomorrow."
Winlni. shook his head and dually ac-
itlfM-ed. Protestation suited him, but
it satisled him too. Thus he support
ed his dignity, played the prudent man,
nnd was at liberty to wash his hands
of any business thut turned out ill.
Some people like to feel right. How
I'vei, 1 had extorted the invitation and
went over myself to deliver It. I met
Mr. flurstnll on the road. He seemed
In high .spirits, and protested that
nothing could have given him greater
pleasure than the prospect of iteconi
l'.tti.vlgn mo on the morrow.
"It's an omen," he said, "a good
omen, and you must come back now
and have dinner with me. I come of
age todav."
"Of age?" I repeated, puzzled.
"Yes, sir," be said hilariously, and
broke off short, as Ferney came riding
down the road towards us. "If you will
excuse me." lie went on, "I desire a
word with this gentleman."
Ferney was walking his horse, and
he gave mo a nod In passing, but paid
on heed to my companion. Mr. Ilur
Btnll, however, did not mean to be Ig
nored. "Mr. Forney," he said, "I have culled
on you three times, having a very im
portant question to ask you"
"Indeed!" said Ferney.
"And each time I was told you were
out."
"Naturally," said Ferney, with a
sneer. "I um never at home to sots
or vagabonds."
The rejoinder was so heartlessly In
sulting that I could not help crying
shame. What the old man wanted with
Ferney I did not know, but Forney had
plainly put himself In the wrong. I
HURRY UP
Everywhere one hears that expression
'hurry up!" It is a genuine Americanism
expressive 01 me
"rush" in which we
live. Nothing is swift
enough for us. We
race against steam
and lightning nnd find
them slow. We
grudge the time given
to eating, and rush
through meals ni

upon our haste.

saw Mr. Uurstall take a step toward
hlin. as If to ding him from his horse,
but he controlled himself with a great
effort, ami next moment Ferney had
quickened his pace and was' disappear
ing down the road.
Mr. llurstnll never spoke a 'word till
We had gono Into his house nnd he had
rung ror a bottle of port. He sat still
nnd Mushed, nnd I noticed that his
gnyety had vanished. When the ser
vant had brought the bottle and be
had poured a glass for either he turned
to me with a husky laugh: "I -come
of ago today I'm twenty-one, sir."
Theio was no plensure in the laugh,
and he shook with his anger, repeat
ing It:
"Just twenty-one. Perhaps that Ih
why I nearly took that fellow by the
throat and shook his cursed life out
or hlin. Mah! Pould 1 have done It
how?"
lie looked lit the knots on his wrists
and half lifted himself, as If for a
stiuggle. I thought to myself that In
all probability Ferney had been nenrer
discomfiture than he would have cared
to know. Mr. Uurstall bent forward
In his ehulr and went oir
"Why did I tell you I was Just twenty-one?
I'm a fool It's thirty years
today since then. Somehow I felt
your Invitation, too, reminded me "
"Glad you're coming," I said lamely,
as he broke off njraln, without reason,
as It seemed. Ho appeared to bu
struggling with some bitter memories,
for he began without noticing.
"Thirty years gone like a dream.
Theie's a m-in's life for you there's
splendid achievement. To be able to
look back on the day of one's coming
of age nnd know that the years be
tween have passed like a dream."
"You've done work." I said, trying
to draw him away.
"A little hum-drum work year In,
year out the same no Interests port"
(he waved his hnnd nt the bottle);
"always more of it; the man becom
ing the sot, ns that fellow said the
ambitious dying dead. There's work
done" It itnnlti. (n tin nvenuu nf anlf
contempt and continued passionately:
.My lion: i'-nnoy thirty years or
dream for n boy who was bursting
with enthusiasm, believed everything,
hoped everything."
T was dismayed by bis outburst, and
RiirflTPSi ml antYtft nimimnm1nio itiif-ttit
life being found always a poor thing
in tno end. no rounded on me at
that.
"No, no: don't bellove It," he said.
"Don't take It from mo that the world
is a mean place or that life must go
dreaming. I never mid It. I never
told a young man yet that the things
lie hoped were th-' things I hoped, or
that, like my life, his would come to
nothlnir. I'm not llmt wnv. 1 rairrv
a smile with most, and most, I pray,
have not hoped as much as I hoped,
and lost oil nil."
He drew himself up again.
"I'll tell you how It was, that you
may think the worse of me, not of
life; and if I speak to you of a woman
I loved, I'm not blaming her."
Ho laughed hilariously, as If the Idea
of blaming the woman he loved were
oeyonu me pale or absurdity.
"Thirty years ago I came of age, and
on that day I would havo asked her.
She did not know. I remember It so
well a garden an Fngllsh garden,
that's to say, green greener than but
1 needn't tell you. It'll make you sick
to hear an old man drivel nn nirnt
garden and and "
He reached for the bottle and poured
himself another glass.
"I would have asked her then, but 1
got a letter suddenly. And something
hupioned-and I found myself bound
for Australia the ends of the earth."
I pricked up my ears at that, mind
ful of .the rumors. Hut he went on dis
Jolntedly all gaps.
"She married some one else a good
man. She lived happily. I had hopes
of returning some day until I heard
-that. Then my ambition went out
like a splashed candle. I ought to have
gone on hoping and doing things be
cause I had the honor to love her, but
-I didn't. 1 threw my life away.
Nothing very bad-only poor, unworthy
of her.
Again he paused and mechanically
began to pour himself another glass of
the wine then:
"Only" (the passion grew Into his
voice) "I have not forgotten, and some
times when some one presumes to
luugh at me for what I seem to him It
comes back, and the boy of twenty-one
had a temper and, by heaven, they
have no right to laugh at the man who
loved her. - That's how I came
of age."
He sat back In Ills chair, wearily I
dare say I put my hand on his arm,
but ho never moved, only adding:
'And today I come of age with u dif
ference. I can look back on the boy
and his hopes. I have not got them "
He reached for his bottle, lllled his
glass nnd drained It. The bottle was
nearly empty then.
I did not stay to dine with him uft.-t-all.
I pleaded haste, and promised to
fetch hlin next day. I wanted to try
to think out the sequence of his story
to llll the gaps, AVhat was this letter
that made so great a change in ills life
and why had he gone to Australia so
suddenly? It could nut u n,. .i...
rumors, so Industriously propagated by
j-i-mey luvuryone seemed to have heard
them through Ferney) were true
Again, for what purpose hud the old
man been so anxious to call on him''
And why Forney's malice?
In the end I had to wait until the
next day. nnd then the gaps lllled very
suddenly. It was when Air. Uurstall
und I were enterlnor h ii ..!
at the Manor House (for I had induced
him to come, though his depression
continued) that I heard Ferney speak
ing very rapidly, as the door opened:
"A drunkard and a scamp, that you
know. Hut there's more-he's nn old
offender ent to Ilotuny Hay years
ago to serve his time forgery."
Wo were Inside the room before For
ney had finished speuklng. I saw Air
Uurstall Hush like a boy.fFerney lcoked

Ing. evidently, und now he assumed a
Htuggerlng pose.
Kvu said, "Oh, dear!" und Dorothea
"I don't bellevo It." George Wlnton
stood with his hands behind him, nnd
inutlu no movement toward his guest
"What Is the meaning or tills, Wln
ton?" I asked, Indignantly.
"Excuse me," ho said. "If I appear
inhospitable, but I should llko to know
to whom I a m speuklng?"
And ho looked toward the old man
frigidly. Air. Hurstull answered ut
once:
"My iiume is Alexander Wlnton."
It was George's turn to flush with
shame. '

A LITERARY COMPETITION WHERE EXPERIENOE IS NOT
NECESSARY IN ORDER TO WIN.
In view of the fact that considerable time has elapsed since
there has been any public competition through the local press
for the purpose of stimulating the literary ability latent among
the people of Northeastern Pennsylvania, The Tribune has de
cided to olTer a series of prizes as a stimulus in this direction.
Jt is desirous of securing for use in its columns a number of
short stories treating of local themes. In order to furnish an
incentive it proposes to pay
?1T) for the best story o'f not to exceed H,0()() words in length;
$10 for the second best storv, and
?" for the third best story."
Manuscripts not successful in securing one of these prizes
will be published and duly credited if the authors so desire.
Stories tending to bring out the romance and legendary
lore of the anthracite mining industry will have preference. In
connection with every mine in the valley there is a mass of tra
dition, including hair-breadth escapes, narratives of spooky hap
penings and other details bordering on the weird or supernatural
which has never been gathered together in literarv form. This
opens a field which is practically inexhaustible and which should
supply the material for some exceedingly interesting fiction.
The task of passing upon the merits of the manuscripts sub
mitted will be assigned to a disinterested judge, whose name
will soon be announced, and who will read the manuscripts but
have no knowledge of the identity of the authors. The envelopes
containing the real names of the authors will be preserved un
onened until after llm nu-nnU Imvo Imon mmin
Should this initial competition prove encouraging, it inr
be followed by other prize offers of similar tenor.

"My my father's brother?" he stammered.
"Yes," said the old man.
"Back from Uotany Hay," added Fur
new with a snigger.
The girls looked at each other with
troubled faces. It was plain that they
had not heard of this family disgrace.
I began to have a dim recollection of
old villagers shaking their heads over
a Wlnton that went wrong long ago.
There was silence until the old man
spoke.
"I did not expect In returning to
bring shame upon you. I came because
but you will understand when I huve
told you my part of the story. Thlrtv
years ago I had a great friend, and on
the dny that that forged check was
presented at the bank I had a letter
from hlin confessing that he hud done
It and asking me to help him escape
detection under r. piomlse of secrecy.
Well, I gave him the promise."
Ferney guffawed loudly.
"Not knowing at the time that sus
picion would fall on me ns It did. Hy
a curious combination of circumstances
the evidence went strong ugalnst me,
and I was condemned to penal servi
tude for life. Uefore I was transported
my friend came to see me. He kept
mo to my promise, but swore in return
to leave a statement of the truth to be
used ntor his death. He was the kind
of man who fancied he would not live
long with a guilty conscience. At the
time I thought him only n coward, nnd
I thought perhaps too much of honor.
Afterward I heard that lie proposed to
nn- woman I loveu. That was playing
mo fnlse. Hut she would not have him.
She married one who hail not known
my hopes, as he knew them my
brother:"
Kva began to sob at this und Ferney
said "Huh!" I edged my way between
hlni and the door. I meant to settlo
nn old-stnndlng hostility. The old man
went on with even tones.
"Thut friend of mine bus sine" died."
He turned suddenly and faced Ferney
in a greut anger.
"Did your fnther leave no such paper
as ho promised?"
Ferney turned red and white and
bnlffed.
George Wlnton suggested, mildly: "1
think you overhauled your father's
pipers, didn't you?"
"You don't believe that my father"

ended, "It's the merest lie."

ART INDUSITRIAL PRODUCTS.
Splendid Display to Be Made at the
Pan-American Exposition.
There will be a very comprehensive
display of art Industrial products at
the Pan-American exposition, Includ
ing articles which llll the gap between
regular manufactures and line art pro
ductions. In tills department will be
shown gold and silver work of tho
jeweler's nrt. Jewelry of every descrip
tion, carved Ivory and wood, designs
In marble and stone, wrought Iron
articles, metal work, 'stained glass win
dows, enamel ware, pottery, stamped
leather, certnln textiles, porcelain, etc.
The large number of applications for
spnee for the exhibit of individual art
products decided Algar AI. Wheeler, the
superintendent of manufactures, to
make It a distinct division, which is a.
departure from tho methods at former
expositions, where these products havo
been merged with the manufactures
and fine arts departments, thus ten
dering their effectiveness almost void.
The art Industrial products exhibit
will li housed In the Manufactures
und Liberal Arts building, which Is
an elaborate structure COO feet long by
Jul) teet in width. The building us otl
glnally designed contained nn opn
court or putlo In tho center. In con
formity with nn old Spanish mission
house design. Tho demand for spa -e
became so great that the manngenieiH
decided to roof this patio with glass
and Install therein exhibits.
The glass-roofed section will bo
treated ns a sub-troplcnl garden,
thereby giving largo and wenlthy
dealers In expensive art decorative ar
ticles nn opportunity to make elabora
tlvo displays ninid surroundings which
are worthy and appropriate, having an
ndornment of foliage, interspersed with
ornamental pavllllons, climbing vines
and ninny odd forms of vegetation.
The original design of un open putlo
with historical water court and foun
tain could hardly bo more artistic, and
certainly could not be as interesting or
entertaining. The change Instead of
detracting from tho popularity of the
buildings wll lonhnnce tho artistic i-r-feet,
besides gaining a great deal of
much-needed space for this valuable
collection. The n'dvantage to be gained
by this arrangement will bo a setting
of unusual beauty In a court thut will
be light nnd nlry, with the additional
churm which always nccompnnles odd
vnrieties of growing plants.
Tho arrangements for the exhibit of
art Industrial products comprehend
ample room, adequate facility and
abundant light.

KINO EDWARD'S TITLES.
They Aro Not Repeated Very Often,
Thank Heaven.
Spencer Tcmrwend, In Cmn' Maftailnc.
To those of us who for a life time
have been well acquainted with tho
name and reputation of the Prince of
Wales, tho title of lCdwnrd VII., King
of tho United Kingdom of Great Ilrlt
nln nnd Ireland, Defender of tho Faith,
nnd Emperor of India (Knlsar-I-HInd),
will sound strange. Hut so, Albert
Edward, long Prince of Wules, Duke
of Cornwall, Earl of Chester, Duke of
Itothsay, Duko of Suxe-Coburg-Gotha,
Prince of Saxony. Karl of Currlck.
Earl of Dublin, Huron Renfrew und
Ixird of Isles, becomes by the (tenth ot
his Illustrious nnd much mourned
mother.
The titles which huve been above ac
credited to Edward VII In his role as
the Prince of Wales, are by no means
all that ho Is entitled to. To them,
among mnny others, may be added tho
following: The Alost Honorable Privy
Counselor both of Great Hrltaln nnd
Ireland, Knight of the .Most Honorable
Order of the Gurter, of the Alost An
cient and Alost Honorable Order of the
Thistle, of the Alost Illustrious Order
of St, Patrick, Groat .Master and Prin
cipal Knight of tho Grand Cross and
Field Marshal of the Alost Honorable
Order of tho Hath, Grand Knlht Coin
munder of the Alost Exulted Order of
the Star or India, Knight of the Grand
Cross uf tho Alost Distinguished Order
of St. Allchnel and St. George, Grand
Commander of the Alost Eminent Or
der of the Indian Empire, Knight of
the a rand Closs of the Itoyul Vic
torian Order, Grand Prior of the Order
of tho Hospital of St. John of Jerusa
lem in Englnnd, to say nothing of
countless foreign decorations, fellow
ships and honorary memberships In
societies of nil sorts, tho mere enumer
ation of the Initials of which would llll
one of these pages.
The Importance nnd dignity of the
heir to the throne In England, us well
us the former and I'eramony that
hedges around the person of such a
prince, Is well Illustrated by a list of
some of the principal olllcers of tho
private household of the Prince of
Wales, In this household we find the
following ofllclals In the order of their
precedence, most of the unices being
tilled by members of the nobility:
Lord wnrden, keeper of tho privy
seal, attorney general, recorder gen
eral, clerk of the council, auditor,
grooiue of the stole, two lords in wait
ing, four eiiUeiTles. six evtrn iiii,i-Ha
two honorary aides-de-camp, two or
derly native olllcers, n private secre
tary, a domestic chaplain, a librarian,
a chief clerk with two assistants, three
physicians in ordinary, three surgeons
In ordinary, a surgeon to th house
hold, live honorary physicians, a super,
lntendent of stables, two surgeons
apothecary, a surgeon dentist, an
agent, a house steward and two house
keepers. These are entirely separate
from the household of Ucr lloyal High
ness, the Princess of Wales.
It Is Interesting this connection t
read the names of the honorary aid -s-de-camp
and the orderly native otl'i
cers. who are High lllgness Alahaiaja
Sir Xrlpt-ndru Xnruyan. Hadaliur. of
Cooeh Mohan: Lieutenant Colonel Ala
