CHAPTER V.
lfAXCOV ATTEMl'TS TO ItETCIl TTTB MINI-
ATUItE.
The noxt day Malcom Kirk dopRodly
got to work on his report. In the
evening he went over to see the presi
dent niiil consulted with him na to cer
tnln details, and then for tbe next three
days he gave himself up to his task
of getting together the great mass of
material he had accumulated while
abroad.
It was the fourth evening of Ills re
turn that he saw the lights In the Gil
bert house across the campus ns even
ing set in. The house had been shut
up and dark.
"She Is home ngnln," was his first
thought. He was unable to work well
that evening. The next day he con
tinued, hut the evident nearness of
Dorothy made him restless to see her.
Once she came out on the porch, ami
be readily recognized her even at thai
distance.
That evening he did not pretend to
himself that be could do anything
worth doing on his report and resolved
to go and return the miniature without
waiting any longer. He had kept It
more than a year now. He was under
promise to give It back. As well now
us any time.
He rang the bell with a tremor i.i
heart that Instantly bounded Into ferei
when Porothy herself opened tlio dooi
He stood there In the light of tl:
porch, and his trepidation did lloi
binder his observing that Dorothy l""':
ed very pale and even as if she l
been crying.
"Won't you come In, M' ''
am very glad to see you." wild i
f!he ppoke so easily, so kindly, that he
recovered his self possession at once
and went Into the parlor and sat down,
wondering at the commonplace de
tails of his meeting with the one wo
man In nil the world to him.
"You will excuse me for coming so
soon after your return?" he said sim
ply. "Certainly," replied Dorothy, smil
ing. "Would you like to see father?"
"No," said Mnlcom Kirk. "I came
to see you." It was so evidently true
that Dorothy could say nothing for a
moment There was nu urrkwatu si
lence. She broke It by saying:
"I have read your pamphlet describ
ing the life of tbe people on the conti
nent in the cities. I thank you, not for
the pleasure, but for the pain It gave
me."
He looked at her gratefully, ne un
derstood exactly what she meant. The
kpenlng hud been made for talk along
the lines of his deepest life, and be
fore he knew Just how It had been
brought about he was telling her some
of the experiences of his year abroad,
things he had told to no one else and
had not even been nble to put Into his
report. All the time he felt the minia
ture In his pocket Hut he seemed to
fight against the knowledge that he
must give It up.
As for Dorothy) she experienced a
feeling of exhilaration In her talk with
this man. She was sick of the empty
nothlugs she had been hearing all sum
mer. The recent experience of her
father's failure also had excited her.
There was much In everything that
pervaded Malcom Kirk's life work to
nttract her at the present moment
It must have been nearly an hour
that they had been talking, she ask
ing questions and he replying, and ev
ery minute grew Increasingly full of
Interest to her, wheu he suddenly stop
ped as he had done that evening a
year before and asked, "Would you
do you feel as If you could play some
thing?" - Ho was simply battling for time, and
ho was lu a condition where he could
not run tbe risk of speaking something
be ought not. Tbe longer he staid tbe
deeper he knew his heart longed for
Dorothy Gilbert He felt that while
she was playing be might measure his
duty and his Inclination better.
She was never able to tell herself
why she played ns she did. She began
with the old German Lorelei, "Ich
welss nlcht was soli es bedeuten, dass
leb so traurtg bin" ("I know not bow It
Is that I am so sad"), and then before
she could control her fingers or ber
thought she bad passed on to the
Traumerel. which Kirk had asked her
to play before.
When she finished, she hardly knew
her own feelings. When she turned
about be was standing, and he bad
the miniature in bis hand.
"I promised to return It when I came
back." He spoke with great simplici
ty and, ns his fashion always was,
looked straight In her face like a man
who Is not ashamed or afraid. "No
one but myself has seen it The keep
ing of It has not"
He hardly dared to trust himself to
say what lay within his heart In
truth he knew well enough that he
would be a far different man for the
rest of his days If he could only have
thla woman for his wife, but at that
moment be felt as If such a possibility
waa too remote for even thought
He had walked to the mantel and
was about to put the miniature down
In the place where It had been when
sound In the library startled them
both. It waa a sound aa of some one
falling heavily.
"Father!" Dorothy exclaimed In ter

BTie was Mnlcom Kirk was before her.
Even us he leaped forward he was con
scious that he held the miniature still,
and before he reached the library he
had mechanically put It Into Its old
resting place In his pocket
They found Mr. Gilbert lying on the
floor unconscious. Dorothy kneeled
on one side of the body, Malcom Kirk
They found Mr. Oilbert lying on the
floor unconscious.
on the other, and for a moment there
was a wild fear In Dorothy's heart that
her father had In some way killed him
self. His business failure had been
tbe great humiliation of his life.
1 Kirk put her mind at rest
"He lias hud a shock or stroke of
some kind." He lifted the body up,
placed It on the lounge and Instantly
ran out of the house for the doctor who
lived only a few doors away.
When he came, he pronounced the
case serious, but gave Dorothy hope.
Malcom Kirk came back, but In the
excitement be could do nothing but
express his sympathy and finally go
back to his room after the president's
wtfe and some others had come In to
mty n-ltb Dorothy for flic light.
Mr. Gilbert had been a typical New
England business man of tbe old
school. When his failure came and
he had begun to recover from the first
effect of the blow, he bad no thought
of any other course but to pay dollar
for dollar of bis honest indebtedness.
To do it meant the loss of his beautiful
home in Hermon. Dorothy felt as he
did about it. Ho had no fears on her
score. The Integrity and firmness of
such a moral course were never in
question with either of them. So he
had come back from where he bud
been staying with his sister, and the
night Kirk called he was busy in his
library arranging the busitiess of the
Hermon property, going over all the
details of his recent loss and making
what provision ho could for the fu
ture. He was nearly 65, still, as he
Supposed, in the prime of Ufa, and he
manfully determined to begin all over
again. He could leave Dorothy with
her mint, who was alone much of the
time and needed her at present and
himself struggle Into place again with
honor untarnished and tbe good name
of the firm free from commercial stain.
So the honest sturdy publisher
thought as he sat at bis desk with his
papers before him. Then suddenly,
Just a little after Dorothy had ceased
to play, he felt a new and awful pain
seize him, he reeled in bis chair, vain
ly tried to call out for help ami sank
unconscious to the floor.
The next few days were daya of
great anxiety to Malcom Kirk. He
could sea the doctor's carriage before
the Gilbert house every morning. One
morning he saw the doctor go up the
steps with another man wna entered
with him. The doctor's carriage re
mained In front of the bouse that day
until noon. In tbe afternoon Kirk call
ed to Inquire, and the servant came out
at tbe back porch and told him Mr. Gil
bert bad been sinking rapidly. A cele
brated physician from Boston bad been
In consultation, and he said there was
little hope.
Kirk passed an almost sleepless
night, and next morning as be looked
across the campus he knew that the
woman he loved best wns alone with
her grief. He could see tbe wreath of
fiowers on the door, and it told blm at
once that John Gilbert had passed on,
never more to be vexed with tbe strug
gle of tbe life that now Is on the
earth.
The week following was one of tbe
most trying that Malcom Kirk ever
knew. Tbe funeral of John Gilbert
was held in the seminary chapel and
attended by tWe professors and towns
people generally. Dorothy's aunt wns
with ber. Kirk had no opportunity to
see Dorothy and be to her the comfort
he longed to be. It was agony to him
after tbe funeral was over to think
that there across the campus in tbe
great bouse was the woman be loved
passing through a great sorrow, and be
had no right to go to her and share
that sorrow with her. He felt as If he
could not break In on her grief to speak
even of his love. So the daya passed
restlessly for him, and be tried to work
on his report, but nude very little rant
progress. He laid the miniature on
bis table and tried to write with the
face looking up at him, but lie made
no progress at all then, nud the close
of the week found him walking his
room in great uncertainty of heart and
Bind.
On Monday the week following be
was obliged to go down to Huston to
consult some authorities In Settlement
work, nud when be came back the
next day the (Jllbort house was closed,
and Dorothy and her aunt hail gone to
Beverly.
It was the very next day that Kirk
saw in a Boston paper the name of
Francis Raleigh, arrived a few days
before f rem Liverpool on the Cepha
lonia. Looking over the columns a
little farther down, he saw lu the lo
cal news from Beverly this statement:
"Mr. Francis Raleigh, the Hermon
artist, recently arrived from n year's
Study abroad, is the guest of Mrs. Ar
thur Penrose, sister of the late John
Gilbert"
That was all. but It roused Malcom
Kirk to instant action. He knew with
ail the vigor ami intensity of his deep,
honest nature that his love for Dorothy
Gilbert was now the largest part of his
life. He had consecrated his time and
strength to the ministry. He did not
deceive himself. He knew what such
a consecration meant. He faced, open
eyed, the entire meaning of a minis
ter's career In a borne missionary
church "out west"
But looking at It all through dis
passionate eyes he said as he walked
his study: "She must choose between
him and me. I cannot go to my work
Without speaking to her. My love for
her Is honest and true, and if God
grant that she cau love me and share
my life with me"
He left the rest unspoken, and. go
ing back to his desk, be sat down,
trembling a little as be put his face in
his hands and prayed that the hunger
of his heart might be satisfied. He
had made up his mind to act ami act
quickly, and once he hail decided on
his course he was free from all doubt
as to Its wisdom.
He took the afternoon train for Bev
erly and reached the place before dusk.
Mrs. Penrose lived In one of the hand
some summer villas m ar the sea. The
whole place smote Kirk as with a
Mow aimed at his poverty, his obscuri
ty, liis whole future. And yet he said
to himself as he walked up the stops
that there was something In his life
Which money and all Its attendant ele
gance could not buy. nud he believed
that Dorothy Gilbert somehow, if she
ever loved any one enough, would feel
the same way toward nil the outward
display of wealth.
The servant who came in answer to
his ring said that Miss Gilbert had
gone out for a wnlk and had not yet
returned. He at once asked for Mrs
Penrose. When she came In where
Kirk was standing In the reception
room. V'P surprised him by greeting
him very warmly by name. He had
merely met her at the time of Mr. Gil
bert's Illness, but not more than once
or twice and then very briefly.
She was a woman of great tact, and
she made Kirk feel at ease. She had
not the remotest idea that he was In
love with Dorothy or what was the ob
ject of his call, and lu a few minutes,
seeing this, he mude up his mind what
to do.
"Dorothy Is down by the bench with
Mr. Raleigh. They will be back for
tea. You have met him, Mr. Kirk? 1
would be pleased to have you stay and
take ten with us."
"Thank yon. 1 sin: 11 be glad to do
SO," replied Malcom Kirk promptly.
All the while he was fast arriving at u
determination to tell Mrs. Penrose
What he had coma for.
"I believe you met Mr. Rnlelgta
while you were abroad? He wns tell
ing us something about you this morn
ing." "Was he?" said Malcom Kirk quiet
ly. "Yes, I met blm on the Copha
lonla going over. We hud several lit
tle visits together. I enjoyed them."
Mrs. Penrose was sitting where she
could see from the reception room win
dow the stretch of beach. She looked
out and said: "I don't see them coming
yet. They will be here soon, I think.
You were saying, Mr. Kirk, that you
enjoyed meeting Italelgh. Excuse me
If I say that he spoke in warmest
terms of you. He told us about your
care of that poor bnliy. He wondered
what became of It afterward."
"It's quite a long story," said Kirk,
"but pardon me, Mrs. Penrose, If I
don't try to tell It now. I want to tell
you why 1 nm here. I love your niece,
and I am going to ask her to be my
wife."

(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Sept. 4. That the Re
publican organization of Philadelphia
does not propose to allow men claim
ing to be Republicans, but who are in
secret deals with the Democracy to re
ceive the support of the Republican
city campaign committee, is evident
from the steps Just taken by the lead
ers of that body.
It Is the Intention of the party lead
ers to smoke out the allies of the C.uf
fey Democracy, who would, In the
eventof their election to the legislature,
Join hands with the Democratic mem
bers of the Senate and the house in an
effort to control the organization of
the legislature and the election of a
t'nlteil States senator.
The Republican voters of this clly
are not In favor of any such scheme.
They are determined to know before
the election who are Republicans and
who are not. They do not wish fur
ther combinations with the Democracy,
to the discredit of the Republican or
ganization and to the loss of prestige
and Influence by the Republican party.
During the last week there was ad
dressed to every candidate for nomi
nation for the legislature from the
Republican district conventions which
are to meet In this city on the 12th inst.
a circular letter drafted by the com
mittee recently Appointed by the Re
publican city campaign committee,
with a view of recognizing none but
Republicans In the party organization.
TO SMOKE! OPT INSURGENTS.
The communication reads as follows:
"The undersigned, members of the
Pnion Republican campaign commit
tee, have been appointed n committee
nm'cr a resolution which reads as fol
lows: " 'Resolved. That Messrs. Lane. Dur
ham. McNIchol, Powers and Trainer be
appointed a committee to investigate
the charges publicly made that certain
persons claiming to he Republicans and
attempting to participate In Republican
primary elections and conventions, are
at the same time engaged in a con
spiracy to form a fusion with the Dem
ocratic party, whereby Republican suc
cess may be endangered In congression
al, senatorial and legislative districts;
and
" 'Resolved further. That the commit
tee is directed to report as soon as prac
ticable to the trnfon Kepu!).'.'.".' u
pnlgn committee any wards or districts
In which such efforts nt fusion may ex
ist, and the names of any persons (If
there be Rny) guilty of the treachery
of participating In Republican primary
elections and subsequently conspiring
for such fusion, so that this campaign
committee may he able to promptly
take such action as may be required."
"We are informed that you are a can
date for nomination for the office of
stnte senator at the Republican con
vention to be held on the 12th day of
September next, und we respectfully
submit to you the following queries, in
accordance with the Instructions con
tained In the resolution aforesaid:
A FEW PERTINENT QPESTIONS.
"First. In case your name Is presented
to a Republican convention will you
abide by the derision of that conven
tion, and whether you are successful or
unsuccessful will you give your earnest
and active support to the nominee of
I he convention and to the whole Repub
lican ticket?
"Second. In case you are nominated
by the convention of the Pnion Repub
lican party and are elected will you at
tend a caucus of the members of the
legislature when properly called for the
organization of either branch of the
legislature or for the purpose of nomi
nating a candidate for the office of
Pnlted States senator or for any other
proper party purpose, and will you
abide by the decision of a majority of
the Republicans in that caucus and
vote for Its nominee and support its ac
tion on any party question, whether or
not you may have voted for that nomt
nee in the caucus, or opposed Its action
on any party question?
"As Republicans earnestly interested
In the success of the party and that we
may promptly perform the duties of
our appointment, we request an early
reply.
"Yours respectfully,
'David H. Lane, Israel W. Durham,
James P. McNIchol., Thomas J. Pow
ers, Harry J. Trainer."
A number of candidates have already
responded to this letter, and up to
date they have all pledged themselves
to go into the Republican caucuses and
abide by the will of a majority of the
Republicans in the caucus.
The dangers of the present political
situation in Pennsylvania on account of
the fusion movement in legislative dis
tricts cannot be overestimated.
Pennsylvania Republicans ought to
think of this matter deeply. The Re
publican party can elect stalwart mem
bers of congress and stalwart mem
bers of the legislature if It will. On
tbe other hand, by following Martin
and Flinn and their candidates it can
wreck the party organization, and as a
result of that wreckage It Is more than
possible that it can bring ruin upon the
entire country.
Successful fusion means ruin, for Re
publicans cannot combine with Demo
crats in legislative districts without
giving opportunities for political deals
which will send many Democrats to
Washington, Just aa similar deals lost
even Republican congressmen only
two years ago.
