[CURTIS' [ i CALL "> henri WINTHROP i i .... Copyright. 1904, by T. C. McClure .... p The Institution was too new to Scar crest to be treated with aught save reverence and awe, but there was more than one who dared suggest that Da vid Prescott had erred In making his daughter Marlon his paying teller Not that Marion was not suited to the place, but that even Scarcrest knew that a woman teller was unusual. Comment did not worry Prescott. Ills holdings in the bank amounted to more than 90 per cent of the capital invested, and at the directors' meeting he had offered to make another choice if the board could suggest any one bet ter qualified through acquaintance or expertness at tigures. That settled the matter officially, and when the spick and span new office opened it was Ma rlon's pretty blond head which was seen through the plate glass square lettered "Paying Teller." Bert Howard was the receiving tell er, and this was further cause for gos j'-;■ . j j;. "I SHALL HAVE TO(iIVF, YOU SOME GOLD," BAli» MAKION SWEETLY. sip, for Bert had been a willing slave to Marion ever since the days when he used to drag her to school on his sled. Many comments had been made in the postofflce and around the stove In Van Zant's grocery, but after Ned Da vis had been soundly thrashed by How ard for suggesting that if the pair of tellers held their positions long enough they would have no trouble starting life properly there was an abrupt ces sation of this sort of gossip, and the bank officers were accepted without further comment. But It was not pleasant sailing for Bert and Marlon. lie had been given his position not because Prescott ap proved of his suit for Marion's hand, but because, like Marlon, he had been the most available person for the po sition. Prescott, in his hard, deep pitched voice, had assured the young man that If he ever caught a glimpse of love making in business hours there would be an imported teller in the bank within twenty-four hours. Bo it was that man and maid were perforce content with such satisfaction as could come from the knowledge of the other's propinquity, and even Tony Dwight. who would have been glad to to see his rival disposed of, could find no cause for tale bearing. Dwight, with Prescott, Bert and Ma rion, constituted the clerical force of the First National, and, oddly enough, Prescott, usually an excellent Judge of character, favored Tony's aspirations for Marion's hand. The one unpleas ant feature of her position was the fact that she had frequently to consult Tony as bookkeeper, and he never let pass an opportunity to press his suit. Then the agent of the Chester Bank Vault company came to Scarcrest one noon hour, driving over from the near est railroad town behind a pair of spanking bays. Curtis was the name In one corner of the card he presented to Prescott as he strolled unannounced into the president's office. But selling bank vaults was not his principal business, for after awhile Prescott cauie out of his office. "Here is a check for which Mr. Curtis wants the cash," he said, thrusting the slip of paper through the window to Ma rion. "You have a package of thou sand dollar bills In the corner of the small safe. There are twenty-flve of those. He will take the other half In hundreds." Marion looked curiously at her fa ther's face, white and drawn. "Are you sure this Is all right?" Curtis laughed lightly. "You are not going to dishonor your father's own check, are you?" he said 1n careless fashion. "Mr. Prescott will assure you that It is all right.* He moved closer to the bank presi dent, and Prescott, with the muzzle of a revolver pressing Into his side, could only nod his assent. Curtis had as sured him that at the first sign of at tempted communication with any of the two clerks all would be shot and he would be safe In the country before the crime was discovered. Prescott was a brave man, but he agreed with 112 urtls' argument that the money would do him little good if he were to be shot for refusing It. Marion gave one more curious glance ut the pair and turned toward the vault. In a moment she reappeared "Oh, Bert," she called, "will you please come here and help me to move this boi'!" Howard went to her aid, while Cur tis fidgeted about, urging Prescott to make haste. There was small danger of interruption from a customer or from Tony, who lunched at that hour; but, being a skilled workman, he liked to see a Job done expeditiously. In a couple of minutes the pair re turned. Marion carried a package of bills, while Howard swung a bag cov ered with wax seals. "I shall have to give you some gold," said Marion sweetly as she tumbled the bills on the shelf beneath the win dow of her cage and prepared to count. "You see, we keep most of our reserve on deposit In town, and for local use we have mostly small bills." "Gold will do," responded Curtis ami ably. "I am not particular, though, of course, the large bills are easier to han dle." Howard came around the corner with the gold, but before Curtis could grasp the bag of coins It descended up on his head with force sufficient to knock his heavy hat over his eves and stun him before the ready pistol In his coat Docket could be flred. Ten minutes later, under t'se reviv ing influence of Ice water applied ex ternally and brandy in internal appli cations, Curtis woke up. Howard stool over him, completing the work of se curing hlni with rope. "You will pardon me, Mr. Curtis," he said blandly, "for not recognizing you more quickly; but, you see, the slip sent out by the Bank of Tacoma gave your name as Peters, alias Mauvel and other names. In fact, Miss Prescott was the first one to see your game. No, 1 wouldn't hang Miss Prescott," he con tinned as he caught the muttered ex clamatlon. "You know the proverb about curses and chickens roosting home. There Is that little matter of killing the president and cashier of the First National of Caswell"— He turn ed to greet the sole peace officer of | which the town boasted. "That's him!" shouted Tony from the ; rear. 1 saw Idm walk up and hit | htm over the head." Constable Post looked about awk wardly "I'm afraid there's some mis take." he growled. "You didn't tell me it was Mr. Howard you wanted | arrested." "Arrest Howard!" shouted Prescott. ■Why, he's just knocked out one of the slickest bank thieves In the country and saved my life as well. Dwight, you get out of here, you miserable lit tle sneak Bert, I'll double the reward the Bank of Tacoma offers, and If you and Marlon can't worry along on that and your salary you don't deserve to get married. Post, you take this fel low over to the lockup and give him a headache powder. I guess he needs it after that clip Bert gave him. I'm go lng to the telegraph office. Bert, you and Marion stay here and fix things up." From his glaiice one could not tell whether lie meant the disordered office or more important matters, but Bert and Marlon knew or at least they used their own Judgment. The Moat Ancient Ralna. The oldest architectural ruins in the world are believed to be the rock cut temples at Ipsambool, on the left bank of the Nile, In Nubia. The largest of these ancient temples contains fourteen apartments hewn out of solid stone. The largest single stone used in this work is one which forms a veranda-llke projection along one side of the main temple. It Is fifty-seven feet long, tif ty-two broad and seventeen (one ac count says nineteen) feet thick This colossal stone Is supported by two rows of massive square pillars, four In each row and each thirty feet high. To each of these pillars Is attached a colossal figure of a human being, reach ing from floor to roof. In front of the main temple are seated still other co lossi, four In number, the two largest being each sixty-five feet high. The only hint we have as to the actual age of these archlteetural rel ics Is from Smith, the British Egyptol ogist, who says,"The colossi attached to the columns which support the large stone mentioned are each painted In gaudy colors in a kind of stucco, appar ently as brilliant now after a lapse of over 4.<i00 years as when first laid on." Very I'artlralnr. In the course of au assault case heard at a provincial court the other day the defendant was asked his trade. "I drive a bus," was the reply "Y'ou mean," suggested the precise solicitor on the other side, "that you drive the horses attached thereto?" "Yes, if you would rather have It put in that way," replied the defendant. Shortly afterward. In the course of his cross examination, the solicitor asked the defendant: "Did you or did you not strike the proseeutor In the face?" The defendant, after a thoughtful pause, convulsed the court with the following: "Well, now, I come to think, there's a doubt about it. I was under the im pression that I did strike the prosecu tor on the face, but perhaps It would be as well to say that I struck him on the nasal organ attached thereto."— London Mail. A C«»neln*lT« B|>eeeb. A story is told of a speech recently made by au Irish barrister in a court of law. He was for the plaintiff, whose cow had been knocked down and killed by a train, and this was the conten tion: "If the train had been run as it should have been ran, or If the bell had been rung as It should have been rang, or if the whistle had been blown as it should have been blew, both of which they did neither, the cow would not have been Injured when she was kill ed." A CHINESE DINNER. T he TJdliitx \V>re (mi tongue Puppy aiid Ckkn Fifty Year* Old. An officer of the British army says that one of the finest dinners he ever ate was served to him by a Chinese host in Hongkong. He thus describes It: "First on our menu came the lit tie oysters which cling to the bamboo stems in the salt water marshes of up per China. They are, I should fancy, the smallest and the sweetest oysters In the world. Bird's nest soup follow ed, prepared as it should be. I fancy that a chicken broth was the liquid to which the nest gave Its peculiar and attractive taste of the sea at our feast, and the combination was excellent. Tri pang, which we know as beche-de mer, followed. It is the sea slug from the J.oochoo islands, and served as an en tree it tastes very much like turtle fat, though richer. To counteract its rich ness a great ehina bowl of boiled bam boo shoots was handed round with It. "Next came a very small roast. I thought at first that It was a tiny suck ! Ing pig, but it had no crackling, and I the flesh was like that of au agneau de | la it, the little lambs whose meat is I snow white. It was one of the Can tonese puppies of a particular kind, which are doomed from birth to take their place on the roasting spit and which are fed on rice and milk only. I looked down the table and saw that my friend was eating with zest, so for the first time in my life I ate dog—and liked it exeecdingly With this puppy were served all the vegetables In sea son and a salad which had the taste of young nasturtium leaf as Its strongest flavor, ltice birds followed They are smaller than ortolans, each tiny plump creature b'-'ing but a mouthful, but they are tin- most delicious eutinn of all the feathered small fry Nankin cuts were next brought round They had been buried for fifty years, and a chinaman detects some special flavor in them. To me they tasted jusi like .HI ordinary hard boiled and their appearance, being al most black, wis not inviting. They were, in m;. opinion, the one failure o' the dinner. lie sideboard had been spread with a variety of cold viands, among them pheasants and game pies from Shanghai and a Kobe round of spired beef Baskets of fruit were brought in and little orange trees In pots, from which we were Invited to pluck the ripe fruit." j THEIR SUMMER [ I ENGAGEMENT [ By HbKBKKT Mcß. JOHNSTON i i Copyright, 1904, by Herbert Mcß. Johnston or> y|H'"n»n'ii'w"H"'»r"im i '"ii | p»ii^"i''nfc "Phyllis," said I solemnly, "do you know what day this Is?" "Friday. Sept. 21," repeated Phyllis glibly. "Yes," said I, shaking my head trag leal I y "yes, this Is the fated day, the accursed hour. The time has come." Phyllis laughed. When Phyllis laughs the prettiest dimples come In her cheeks. 1 have accused her of laughiug just to bring them there, but she ouly laughs the more. "Phyllis," 1 warned her, "those dim ples." I think they grew even deeper. "And I'm such a weak one," I mur mured thoughtfully. "We're getting away from the ques tion," replied Phyllis, with swift lncon- I sequence. "What about the date?" I assumed my most melancholy air. My eye caught the corner of mv pocket handkerchief, and I pulled it out. "The day of our parting." I replied briefly, smothering a pseudo sob. Phyllis' brows met In a perplexed frown, a most adorable frown. "I don't pet it," she said. "It's your own doing." I asserted, throwing the blame on her. "It was en tirely your own suggestion, and you have no one to blame but yourself." Still Phyllis frowned. I know a way I could have smoothed out the wrin kles. "Why, our engagement, you know," I insinuated. "It was expressly under stood, I thought, that It was strictly a summer affair." At last Phyllis eoniHfeheuded. For a moment I thought she was going to smile and enjoy the Joke, but Instead her eyes grew wide with amazement, and then she buried her face In her handkerchief. There was no mistak ing It. The sobs were too violent to be anything but genuine. "Phyllis?" I interrogated in amaze ment. "Phyllis, what Is It, dear?" I don't believe either of us noticed the last word. Then she dried her eyes and straight ened up her head. "I never thought, Jack," suid Phyllis, with considerable indignation, "that you would have reminded me of It. II 'i w | j I I DARED TO PTT MY AHM ABOUND HEII. And on the very day summer is over too! It seems to me you were in rath er a hurry to have It ended." "But, Phyllis"— I blundered. "Yes, 'but, Phyllis,' " she mocked me. "1 suppose you were afraid that If It ran a day over It would mean a renew al of the contract, or perhaps you thought 1 wouldn't let you out of it. You needn't have worried, 1 assure you." Phyllis was holding her head very high. A sunbeam playing across her brown hair set it aflre. lier eyes need ed no sunbeam. I never saw Phyllis look more handsome. And then, while I grew redder and more shamefaced, I saw the little vix en was laughing at me. "Jack," she said, "there's something I like about you I don't know what It is. I think it must be your family." That set me on my high horse. "Ah!" 1 murmured Indifferently. "Good of you. I'm sure. Perhaps yon have even picked out which one- Fred or Charlie?" "I'm not quite sure," said Phyllis roguishly. The dlmpl«s were there again. "Phyllis." I said, "I'm never going to ask you to marry me again." "I don't want to marry you again," answered Phyllis. "You haven't yet," I retorted. "What I mean Is that I am never again going to ask you." "Never?" asked Phyllis in mot ter ror. "Never!" said 1 firmly. "This Is the very last time. Will you marry me?" "That's once over, right there," she laughed. "Kememlter," I warned her. "it was the last time." "Will you make me a promise?" ques tloned Phyllis "To"- "Not ask any other girl either," fin ished Phyllis. "I don't see what difference It would make," I commented. "Because if you will," said Phyllis, "I'll wait until I'm ready or on the shelf and then conic around and ask you; only I'd like to be sure you were disengaged." I guess I must have looked a bit blank, be< ause Phyllis bursl out laugh Ing "How long will it be?" I sske<l. "I really can't say," laughed Phyllis. "If I decide to wait until I'm ready for the shelf I flutter nn self !t will be some time yet." "Ho do I." I said sadly. "Well," asked Phyllis, with some as penfy, "jou don't hope for anything slse. do you?" But the thought nf 't seemed a long nay ahead "If I were sure'' 1 began. "If I give you my word," 9nid Phy! lis. "Phyllis," I said soberly, "if you said the word I'd wait till the day of doom for you, dear But, you know, little girl, I don't want to. I want you now." Phyllis' eyes had lost that hard glow Then- was only the dull, soft Are of : burnished copper now. I ought to have taken her In my arms and kissed her i right there, but I didn't know enough I always was uoted for doing such stupid things Phyllis lias told me ao since. "Do you really, Jfiok?" said she soft iy "l really do, l'hvllls. Without you I'm like that soul which the poet tells about, 'that went Into the storm and blackness and lost Itself between the earth and heaven.' " Phyllis sat a little closer to mo. It's a good dodge, Is that poetry business. I've always felt that 1 owed a good deal to some of those poet Johnnies. "That was awfully dear of you. Jack." she whispered. I felt a goodish bit like a cad then. It seemed so like taking an unfair ad i vantage. Yet it wasn't that I didn't mean it, for I did, every word of It. "Phyllis," I half whispered, "shall I break my word?" Phyllis never said a word, but Just crept a littl* 1 closer. I dared to put my arm around her. Now, it's always been my contention that when a tjlrl says stop In a whisper that she meajis the exact opposite. "Stop!" whispered Phyllis. That was when 1 did It Her head was on my shoulder, but her face some how got twisted up, and I kissed her full on the lips, rhyllls' lips are wurm and soft. "Oil, .lack!" she whispered. Then I kissed her again. Bi I only kissed her twice. An event is but mo mentary; let it last longer, and it sinks to the level of a mere incident. "And It's my family you like, is it, Phyllis?" I asked her. Phyllis nodded her head. She was too close for me to see her do it, but I could feel It on my shoulder. "Fred or Charlie?" I asked again. "1 guess—l think—er—their brother." After that 1 forgot all that rot about an event being but momentary. Any how, what's the odds if it Is? People don't po through life looking for events all the time. Commonplace tlilnps are much nicer. "And you're going to be engaged to me now for all the time?" 1 questioned when I got my breath. "No," said Phyllis, shaking her head. "Please, dearest." I said. "I want you so—so much. Please say you will." But Phyllis shook her head. "No," said she, with a happy little laugh; "it'll have to stop when you marry me." lie Took It Back. In a certain town of western Massa chusetts two of the most prominent citizens are a Methodist brother and a Presbyterian brother. These are neigh bors, and.for the most part, dwell on good terms, except when they try to effect an exchange of horses or to talk religion. On one occasion the two had traded horses, and. although the outcome rankled In the breast of the Methodist, they had met and started a discussion on the subject of predestination. As usual an altercation ensued, when the Methodist lost control of himself. With mixed emotions concerning horse trades and John Calvin in his mind, he suddenly exclaimed: i "You're a robber, a liar and a Pres byterian!" This proved too much for the Presby i terian. and a tight began. in which the 1 Presbyterian got the best of it. As he I sat upon his prostrate opponent, bump ing his head against the ground, he said "Take It bark, take it bnck. or I'll bump your foolish head off!" "I'll take it bark," pa sped the van quished Methodist, "on the first two counts You're not a robber nor a liar, but you're a blamed old Presby terian If I die for It!" Harper's Week ly.

Boston Transcript IVAN THE TERRIBLE. flnrlutrir I mr \\ lio l*ove»l lo Hum, lloil mill Torture His SulijectM. Some of the reasons why Ivan, czar ; of Itussla, wa> called "the I'errible" I have been retold by K. Waliszewski in ) his book. Persons who displeased liim j he would saw asunder by I lie constant j rubbing of a rope around their waists or ! sprinkle alternately with ice cold and ; boiling water. He marked his sense of i a bad jest b\ deluging the perpetrator with boiling soup and then running him through with a knife. He rebuked an unmannerly envoy by summoning a carpenter and ordering him to nail the man's hat on his head. I'here were J also wholesale orgies, as at the punish j ment of Novgorod, when he had a hun j dred persons roasted over a slow tire bv a new and ingenious process and then run down on sledges into the river to be drowned. At Moscow the czar had a disappointment. There was to be a great execution of."•><> victims who had already been tortured to the last extremity, and loyal subjects had been summoned to the function. "To Ivan's astonishment the great square was empty. The instruments of torture that stood ready—the stoves and red hot pinchers and iron claws and nee dles, the cords, the great coppers full of boiling water—had failed to attract this time. "But there had been too much of tills sort of thing lately, and the execution ers wore growing too long armed. Ev ery man sought to fiid<* deeper than Ills neighbor. The czar had to send re assuring messages all over the town. 'Conic along! Don't tie afraid! Nobody will be hurt!' At last out of cellars and garrets the necessary spectators wore tempted forth, and forthwith Ivan, inexhaustible and quite un abashed, began a lengthy speech. Could he do less than punish the trai tors? But he had promised to be mer ciful, and he would keep his word! Out of the :toO who had been sentenced 180 should have their lives!" Torture and execution were, however, in the case of Ivan very much more than the mere instruments of barbaric justice. They were his recreation and delight. As a boy his amusement was to throw dops down from the top of one of the castle terraces and watch their dying agonies. As a man he used togo the round of the torture chambers after dinner. One of his first crimes was the execution of his earliest friend. I eodor Vorontsov. One of his last, was the murder of his own son. Aecordinp to Waliszewski, It was the recognized thing In Russia for the up per dog to make things as uncomforta ble for the under dog as knouts and slow tires could make them. So "the Terrible" only talked of his subjects in the language they could most readi ly understand. Ivan was by no means unpopular with tlie people. In many ways he was an enlightened and pro gressive monarch. lie took the first steps toward the founding of Russia's great eastern empire. lie made more or less successful attempts toward po litical and legal reform, and lie had a certain pift of leadership and instinct of statesmanship which he used to the best advantage. Personally he was a coward, as was shown at the siege of Kasan. when he kept diligently to his devotions in spite of the repeated en treaties of his men to come out and help them.
