Synopsis — Geoffry Carlyle,
master of railing ships at twee-
ty-*l*. Is sentenced to 20 years*
servitude In tire American col-
onies for participation in the
Monmouth rebellion In England.
Among the passengers on board
the ship on which he la sent

wealthy Maryland planter; his
niece, Dorothy Fairfax, and Lieu-
tenant Knnrhex, a Fpnnliird, who
became acquainted with the Fair-
faxes In I-ondou.
COUNTRY WAYS IN THE CTY
Would Be Well If More Dwellera In
Crowded Places Kept Them
In Their Mmda.
*1 here |a at least one thing about
cities that Ih all wrong and deeply
to be deplored. That thing la their
baedleaaneha, which too often amounts
to cruelty.
It la to lie feared that people who
dwell in large town* permit them,
solves lo become unfeeling ami tin-
neighborly. 'I hey lone their sympathy
for the alck and grow callout l<> even
the presence of death Itself. Mow
many old frlemla we all have who
have lately been very ill. Well, we
never even railed lo are them. Mow
many old friends have died and w«
did not even go to their funerals.
The thing for folks who live In cities
to do Is to keep In their hearts the gen-
tle customs that they learned In ttH
country. There Is nn real reason whj
we should iH-rmll the town lo ink*
from us the things which make lift
gentle and sweet and beautiful. I.ot

CHAPTER III—Continued.

"Why especially with mi-?*'
"leather n hurt! question to answer
■ t th<- very beginning," I smiled but k
at her. "Vet not so difficult us the
one 1 Khali usk you. I am only one of
fifty prisoners, scarcely denrn-r or
more reputable looking than nny of
my mutes. Vet surely you have not
sought speech with these others? Then
why especially with me?"
Even In the growing dusk I could
rrurk a red flush mount Into the clear
ohiteks ut this Insistent question, und
ftw an Instant her eyes wavered. I5ut
she possessed the courage of pride,
und her hesitancy was short.
“You Imagine I cannot answer. Oh.
but I can; I know who you are; iny
uncle pointed you out to me. I am
traveling home with him to Maryland.
I am Dorothy Fairfax. He wiih pres-
ent at your trial before Lord Jeffries.
You are GoofTry Carlyle, In command
of the ship that brought Monmouth to
Englurid. I heard it all."
“All? What else, pray?"
Her eyes opened widely In sudden
surprise ami she clasped und unclasped
In-r hands nervously.
“I)o you really not know? Hnve you
never been told what happened?"
"Only thut I was roughly forbidden
to speak, called every foul name the
tuarned judge could think of, and then
sentenced to twenty years penal servi-
tude beyond sens," I answered soberly.
"Following that I was dragged from
the dock, and flung Into u cell. Was
there anything else?"
“Why you should have known. Lord
Jeffries sentenced you to death; the
decree was signed, to he executed
Immediately. Then influence wns
brought to hear—some nobleman In
Northumberland made direct appeal to
the king. Thut wus what angered
Jeffries so."
"An appeal 1 For me? Good God I.
not Uucclough—was It he, tho duke?" j
"Yes; It was whispered about thutl
the king was In his debt—some word j

"It Is not so strange th«-n. la It, that
I should have felt interested In you?"
ahe asked suddenly, a* though Jusilfy-
I log li« r -i !f. “When Uncle Roger first
told roe who you were, and then ex-
plained what hud occurred at your
trial, naturally you became to me
i something entirely ^llfferent from the
I others. Were you uctuully with Mon-
mouth ?"
"In sympathy, yes; but I had no
hand in the actual lighting. I was not
even ashore until It was all over with.
Btlll I shall pay my shun* of the hill.”
"And you know what that means,
do you not? What will happen when
we reach Virginia?"
“Perfectly; I have no Illusions. I
have seen Just such ships ns this come
lo. We are to he advertised, and sold
to the highest bidder. A week from
now I shall probably he out In the
tobacco fields, under the whip of an
overseer, who will call rne Jeff. All I
can hope for Is a kind-hearted master,
and an early opportunity to escupe."
"Oh, no!" nnd In her eagerness her
bunds actually clasped mine. "It Is
not going to he quite so had as thnt.
That Is what I wanted to tell you.
Thnt Is what gave me boldness to
come across here to you tonight. It

I hesitated for an Instant of Indue!-

truth would not ho denied.
"Scarcely Hint," I said soberly. "Nor
can I solve entirely Ills purpose. He
Is my brother, nnd I am the next In
line. We ure not even on speaking
terms; yet he Is childless, and may
feel some measure of dislike to have

Klmply, “U may also help you to un-

"Largely necessity, and to some ex-
tent no doubt sheer love of adven-

little Income. There were then two
lives between me and the estate, and

of a man moae-d the deck toward us,

Agamr? the gleam of yellow light
I recognixed the trim form advancing,
and as Instantly fter-ped back Into
shadow. My quick movement caused
her to turn and face him.
“What!" be exclaimed, and evi-
dently *urpri-ed at hi* dlacovery. “It
ia Indeed Mlatren* Dorothy—out here
alone? Twaa my thought you were
aafely In your cabin long since. But—
prithee—I mistake; you are not
alone."
“1 wax preparing to go In." ahe an-
swered. Ignoring hla latter words.
"The night already looks atomy."
"Rut your friend?"
Tb*- tone In which he spoke was
Insistent, almost Insolent In its de-
mand, and she hesitated no longer In
meeting the challenge.
“Your pardon, I am sunv—Lleuten*
ant Hanrliex, this gentleman la Cup-
tuln Geoffry Carlyle."
He stood there stiff and straight
against tin* background of light, one
hand In affected carelessness caress-
ing the end of a waxed mustache. Ills
face wus In shadow, yet I was quite
aware of the Hash of his eyes.
"Ah, Indeed—some passenger I have
not chanced to observe before?"
“A prisoner," she returned distinct-
ly. "You may perhaps remember my
uncle pointed him out to us when be
first came aboard."
"And yon have been out here alone,
talking with the fellow?"
"Certainly—why not?"
“Why tin* man Is a felon, convicted
of crime, sentenced to deportation."
"1^ Is not necessary thut we discuss
this, sir," she Interposed, rather proud-
ly, "as my personal conduct Is not a
matter for your criticism. I Khali re-
tire now. No, thank you, you need
not come."
He stopped still, staring blankly
after her as she vanished; then
wheeled about to vent hls anger on
me.
“Carlyle, hey!" he exclaimed 6neers
Ingly. "A familiar Bound that nami
In my ears. One of the brood out of
Uucclough?"
“A cadet of that line,” I managed
to admit, wonderingly. “You know
of them?"
"Quite as much as I care to," hls
tone ugly and Insulting. Then an Idea
suddenly occurred to hls mind. "Saint
Guise, but that would even up the
score nicely. Yon are, as I understand
It, Kent to Virginia for Bale?"
“Yes."
“For how long a term?"
“The sentence was twenty years."
“Hela! nnd you go to the highest
bidder. I’ll do It, fellow! To aetunlly
own a Carlyle of Uucclough will hs
a sweet revenge. ’Twill count for
more than were I to tweak the duke'a
nose.”

I hesitated, Instantly realizing thnt

give that up now. You have placed
me under obligations to serve. Re-

CHAPTER IV.
The Wish and the Thought.
Little three-year-old Ruth had very
curly hakl, and it was a great trial
whenevr her mamma combed it.
One day during the ordeal she cried
and struggled more than usual and
her mamma said:
"Why, Ruth, what will the neighbors
sa.v If they hear you?”
“I dess they’ll sny," answered Ruth,
between sobs, “if znt was m.v kiyl I
wouldn't bother wlf her old frizzy
huir."
Black Sanchez, Pirate.
I rested In my berth for n long time,
staring blankly up at the dark deck
above, unable to sleep, and endeavor-
ing to figure out the true meaning of
all these occurrences. I felt that I
could understand the Interest exhib-
ited by Dorothy Fairfax, and, greatly
ns I already admired her, I was not
egotist enough to even Imagine that
her effort to serve me had basis in any
personal attraction. Rut what about
Lieutenant Sanchez? Why was this
unknown Spaniard already so openly
my enemy? Could It be because of
Dorothy Fairfax? I felt finally thnt I
had the clue—Jealousy, the mad, un-
reasoning Jeulousy of hls race.
I had no false conception ns to this;
no vngrant thought that her Interest
In me was any more than a passing
fancy, born of sympathy and a de-
sire to aid. Nevertheless, as she had
thus already served me, I now owed
her service in return, and here wns the
first call. If conditions made It pos-
sible It was my plain duty to place
myself between these two.
