said one of the representatives at the re-
tent meeting of the credit men "took place

language for both had been follow eis of the

"One of these old fellows espoused the
cause of Spain declaring that she had
been jumped on because she was little and
that this country was playing the part of
a great big bully. After they had ex-
changed hot shots for a few minutes the
thampion of the government got tliinas
to going his way by shouting that the
other fellow came honestly by his principles
and was bred a traitor.
" 'What do you mean you old shrimp?'
from the advocate of Spain.

" 'Course they did. Whatofit!'

Dotty sat on a stool beside her mother
looking at the pictures in an old church
book. There were angels and' cherubim
end harpists galore and in them the child
found much to interest her. The last pic-
ture in the book was of a dozen or more
angels floating on the clouds. Above the
head of each shone the symbolic halo. Those
halog bothered Dotty. She had never seen
such a head dress and she was perplexed.
After a minute's thought she held the book
up to her mother and said: "See mamma
the ladies what's got wings and funny things
on their heads."
The mother looked. "Those are angels
dear" she said.
"And. what's the funny rings on their
heads mamma?" the child asked.
"Those are halos Dotty."
"Does they wear them always mamma?
Does all angels wear them?"
"Yes Dotty. All angels wear them and
they wear them all the time."
"When they's in the house?"
"Yes Dotty."
"When they's asleep?"
"Yes."
"I guess they wears their halos all the
time mamma cause they're afraid if they
took 'em off and hung 'em on the hat rack
they'd get broke don't they ?" Detroit Free

"Dnrcle took the scat opposite Miss
Bingham nnd demoted himself some-
what nervously to serving her nnd
keeping her attention from her father.
"Everybody is so kind in these ex-
traordinary places" she began and her
tolec betrayed her unconfessed anxiety
through the forced society key she had
struck into nervously "lt'6 Impossible
'to believe nil that we hear about the
trouble with the miners: they seem
such respectable men when you meet
them." She stopped in confusion and
looked at Dnrcle helplessly.
"Are you excuse me are you n
miner?"
"Very much so" Dnrcle answered
dropping his eyes.
Her own glance fell and lighted upon
a brown sinewy hand resting upon the
table a hand that looked ns If itmight
luive been familiar with golf-stick and
tennis racket or with paddle nntlvrun
but scarcely showed a long acquaint
ance with pick andi barrow nnd drill.
Darcle straightened himself back in his
chair and slipped the telltale member
into his pocket. His companion was too
observing by far.
"And is he a miner?" she asked Indi-
cating Mike with her eyes.
"Yes Miss Bingham."
"The same as yourself?"
"We don't inhabit the same person
quite."
"Hut you do the same work?"
"Yes; only Mike does rather more of
it than I do."
Da role's face wore such an odd em-
barrassed defensive expression that
Miss Ulnglinm laughed out loud n sud-
den girlish peal that sent light shivers
through the young man's nerves; then
as suddenly her eyes brimmed up with
tears. She leaned a little toward him
and nsked confidingly:
"Where is my father?"
"He is in bed I assure you; heVquite
used' up you know."
She sighed. "I believe I can't eat any
supper; thanks so mnch."
"Oh do won't you try? I know the
stuff's abominable."
"No it isn't at all; if s vy nice. But
if yon hnd anything to tell me you
would tell me wouldn't you?"
"Undoubtedly" Darcle assured her.
She did not believe him; but there
was nothing to be done but wait for the
facts to develop.
Dnrcle was not conscious how intense
was his observation of the girl while
his thoughts were busy with her situa-
tion and his own rather mod plan for
taking her father's place. How should
be put it before her? In the meantime
how lovely she was! The wind bad
burned her lips nnd cheeks and' rough-
ened her fair hair which made a soft
nimbus in the firelight around her
glowing face: the fire was in league
with the windi and rain weaving spells
of light and shadow to enhance the
charms of color and feminine ex-
pression in line nnd attitude. Darcle
must have looked what he could not
say.
"You you are not an Americnn are
you Mr. " Miss Bingham hesitated
questionlngly.
"Darcle" the presumptive owner of
that name subjoined..
"Mr. Dnrcle?" the girl repeated.
"Xo" he dwelt upon the word as If
trying to recall her question "no; I'm
a British tenderfoot not to tender as I
was last April."
His accent pleased her very much
though she would not have chosen to ac-
knowledge it: her lips parted in a smile
03 she repeated his "lost April" under
her breath the broad "a" as broadly as
possible.
"I'm rather glod on the whole that
you're not an American" she said. "We
ore all Americans and it gets a bit tire-
some" she added with another gleam.
"And besides it helps to account for
things."
"Does it?" said Darcie. "I'm very
glad if it does. Could you impart some
of your light to me?"
"Well" she hesitated "if you had
been an American with something
about you which seems to place you
it would seem odd that one should never
have heard of you. I know very few
people of course because I'm a tender-
foot myself; but my father knows
everybody. All the meni who come from
the east with letters you know 1
sooner or later always visit the mine.
This is ery absurd of me. There's
really no reason why I should Insist
upon accounting for you. But if you
are from the other side you may know
some of our Big Ho'rn people? Some of
them are very swell I believe"
"I know n good many people on the
other side who are not swell" Darcie
replied evasively.
"But do you know any one of our syn-
dicate?" the girl persisted. "Of course
ue think everybody has heard of the
Big norn who has ever heard of the
Coeur d'Alene."
"Excuse me" said Darcle clumsily;
"I think your shoes are too close to the
fire. It's a great bore V can't be"1 ac-
counted for in the usual way" he con-
tinued on resuming his seat; "still the
chances u:e I'm better as a riddle with-
out the answer. The answer Is sure to
be stupid. Let us assume that you have
placed me even if you have misplaced
me a trifle; it can do no harm for one
night. And it may give you that con-
fidence which which gives me confi-
dence toa offer you my escort to the
mine."
"Am I in need of nn escort?" Miss
Bingham asked in astonishment. She
saw no reason for so much confidence
in her confidence on the part of an in-
terestlng.ccrtainiy but rather inexplic-
able youngstranger.
"Quite so I mean temporarily. Your
fathecr-he's quite well; but as I've Vrtd
you he's unconscionably tired. It would
be positive cruelty to aik him to turn
out again to-night. I'm taking for
granted out of modesty I assure you
In view of our accommodation that
you'd rather go home."

"'We must both go home" said Mlsn
Bingham rising quickly. "1 can't imag-
ine why you should think my father is
not able!"
But her imagination was nssist'ng her
vividly-at that moment and painful
prescience born of unyouthftil experi-
ence was shedding its light upon Dar-
cie's remarkable proposition and tho
awkwardness of his reasons.
"I lld not say he wasn't able" he
desperately interposed; "he's forty
fathoms deep In sleep. Why drag him
out when I'm so entirely at your serv
ice? That's a brute of a horse of his
for mountntii work."
"What Colonel? Why he's n perfect
rooklng-chalrl"
"I mean getting chilled you lriow.
He's n heavy man In the saddle. He's
he's not very used to riding Is ho?"
"Why he never walk3:"
"Pray have a little consideration."
"I must see if he is well."
"But"
"But this Is the ery e.cess of con-
sideration! Please let me speak to my
fntherl"
Darcle retreated to the lire with a
gesture of despair to Mike who made
a suddi 1 clatter with his sauccpnns
while Faith tinder cover of the shadow
nt the far side of the cabin satisfied
herself as to her father's condition.
Mike was right in assuming that she
hid seen him "that way" before.
"Oh this Is too much!" confessed to
herself the heartsick girl. "I think he
might hae spared me this. And those
poor things trying to keep It from me
with their silly excuses! Of course
they must know what alls him. What
shall I do? I'm certain they don't wish
mc. to stay; he all but asked me to go
and no wonder they have enough with
him ou their hands. Yes; I must go
back nnd stop the inquiries at the mine;
1 must tell a few more lies. Ko; I will
not cry. They shall not know that I
know. I will be as innocent as they
think me."
She had remained some time by the
side of the bed long enough to gain
control of herself as she thought.
When she came forward into the light
the hot color burned In her checks her
head was high her eyes wide and
bright.
"She takes it beautifully" thought
Darcie scarcely permitting himself to
look at her; "but who knows how she
takes it when she is alone with it!"
44Ys; I think I had better go back to
the mine" said Faith coldly "if if
either of you gentlemen will take me.
My father is too tired; it would be too
selfish of me not to let him sleep."
She fixed her eyes upon Darcle as if dar-
ing him to doubt that she believed what
she was saying. "But I will go. Our
people might be anxious. Can we start
do you think pretty soon?"
"We might wait an hour" said Darcle
gently "and still reach the mine before
ten."
"An hour! But the rain lias stopped
I think. That roaring is the gulch."
Mike stepped to the window to take a
look at the weather. "It's a wlldlsh

ing the matter wid start in' now" if the
lidy wishes. I can see the crown o' the

funny part av the grade. The thrall
!b shlnin' with wet; it's as plain as the
lilies on me pa'm. Will ye have up the
horses or no?"
"Oh yes; the horses please."
MeGowan went out. The wind sucked
the door to after him with a loud slam
and a lump of dried mud fell from a
chink in the wall. There was a mo-
ment's silence; then Faith threw away
all concealment in one tragic look.
"Did you ever hear of such a thing as
this!"
"I may say I've never heard of any-
thing else" said Darcie recklessly; "the
.thing is so common."
"Oh but not like this!"
"Why if it's possible ut all there's
no reason it shouldn't happen anywhere
or anyhow. It's (not a matter of inten-
tion and it's the commonest accident
in the world."
"That makes it so much better!"
flashed the girl with a glance of her
proud hurt eyes.
"I mentioned the fact merely."
"I would be ashamed to mention it;
if 1 did I would call it what it is!"
Darcle smiled.
"You call it an accident just to com-
fcrt me as we all lie to one another
about a disgrace that cannot be hid.
It does not comfort me much to be told
that allmenareso--Uabre and all wom-
en" her lips quivered. "Why this is
my father!" She broke down and hid
her face.
Presently T)arcie said gently:
"You take It so much too hard."
"I take it hard that you should ex-
pect me to take it any other way" she
cried with passionate explioitness.
"Afre English women so philosophical?"
"Ah we cannot discuss it."
"I should think not when my heart
is breaking with it!" She drew In her
breath quickly stifling a sob. "Mr.
Dtrcie" she whispered.
"Dear Miss Bingham?" There was a
pause. Faith's eyes searched his face
and Darcle trembled looking down. He
was very handsome standing before
her on his manhood under her pure
testing eyes; but she saw now only
what she was seeking for the truth in
him though she might have been helped
by the outward shape of him to per-
ceive the truth. She was not less u
child than other girls of her age not-
withstanding the unhappy progress she
had lately made in worldly knowledge.
"Well" she said at last "you know
ne better in this one hour than my
dearest friends at home will ever know
me. Tt is a strange terrible thing that
ycu should have to come into my life
in this way. It Is a dreadful liberty
we have taken forcing our troubles
upon you in your own house."
Darcle's chest rose but he did not
speak.
"I want to ask you yet it's such n
silly thing do men talk of this sort of
'accident' among themselves gen-
erally the thing being so common?"
"I don't know what sonic men do;
do you think 1 shall make common talk
of a trouble'of yours?"
"And Mike? Will you tell him please
how 'hard' I take It?"
"1 can answer for Mike" said Darcle;
"but 1 will speak to hi in if you wish."
"It's not that 1 doubt cither of you"
Darcle winced a little at this free
classification "but seeing It so differ-
ently you know you might make light
of It". I should wish it ncer to be men-
tioned even to excuse it."
"You mistake ine; I don't excuse it.
As an accident touching your father
a man would say It is nothing. But
as a sorrow affecting you It Is anything
you please. It Is monstrous; and it
shall be guarded as 1 would guard tt
trouble of my own."
"Ah" said Faith musing bitterly
"men are more charitable than women
I suppose; they see so much more of the
world. But what would they think of
lib if we laid traps for our own wenk-
uesM's anil then claimed to be pitied
for falling Into them!"
Darcie looked nt her with profound
tenderness nnd resorted to pulling his
mustache in lieu of speech.
"There comes that poor good Mike
splashing through the mud!" she ex-
claimed luughlug helplessly through
the. tears she had vowed she would not
shed. "How very excellent of him to
do all the work while we sit here talk-
inpl"
"Mike chooses his own part" said
Darcie with dignity; "but we can
change parts If you prefer. Would you
rather hae him to go home with you?"
"That's not for me to say." Fnltli
eluded the little trap that had been set
for her. "It would not become me to
choose between two such friends in
need. I nm simply a parcel left on your
hands to be delivered at the mine. Tho
least one of you if there Is a least is
only too good for me."
"I'm th'e least one of us in several
senses of the word" said Darcle con-
tentedly. "So on grounds of humility
you will lime to put up witli me. lwill
deliver the parcel safely and" he add-
ed in a low voice "so much of your
trouble ns I hnve unwillingly seen to-
night I think you may trust me with."
"I would trust you with nil my
troubles and I huve. more thnn one"
Faith answered Impulsively. Sho
raised the sweetest eyes all bright and
lnrgc with tears to his eyes of grati-
tude nnd nbsurd belief. And Darcle
forgot that he had anything in his con-
sciousness to settle with before he could
meet such n look from her eyes or re-
ceive such n "trust. Mike remarked him
uneasily nnd confUled to the Are his
opinion that "wan fool makes many"
and that "the ould irinn 1h not the only
wan that's off his base this night!" He
held open the door of the cabin and let
its light shine out while Darcle put the
young lady into her saddle. The
restive horses sprang about oer the
stones nnd one behind the other clat
tered down the ledge where the trail
was narrow and steep. The girl looked
back and Mike for long nfterwiird
could not forget the sweet half-apprehensive
glance she gave Darcie ns he
drove his horse forward to her side.
The wet trees closed and shut them in.
"That's the way he settles the ques-
tion av inshtinc'" said Mike ns he shut
the cabin door. "I'll be bound he nlver
gev her the ch'ice but just sided in for
himself. He's a very limber lad and I
have not the measure av him in me
mind entirely. But I'm wid him; I'm
solid for ye me little Darcle."
II.
AN EQUIVOCAL POSITION.
The manager's residence at the Big
Horn is the first house above the bridge
where the wagon road joins the trail.
It has a high gallery across the second-
story front overlooking the gulch
which is reached by long windows from
the rooms opening upon it and by nn
outside staircase from the ground. The
gallery forms the roof of a cement-floored
porch in front of
the lower entrance a favorite een-
ing lounging-place for the men
employed at the mine when they
are fortunate enough to be on good
terms with Miss Steers the manager's
housekeeper.
On the night of Mr. Bingham's deten-
tion nt the Black Dwarf two friends of
Miss Steers and several friends of
theirs were sitting on chairs tipped
back against the house wall under the
shadow of the gallery talking in low-
voices and not smoking an unusual
precaution denoting secrecy. They
ceased speaking as soon as horses' feet
were heard approaching but conclud-
ing that as they came by way of the
trail it must be the manager returning
home with his daughter they did not
trouble to look out.
The moon was shining on the wet
roofs sheening them with silver; the
tamarack timber up the gulch supplied
the contrast of pitch-blackness broad-
ened by Impenetrable masses of shad-
ow. Gleams from the house-lights re-
vealed the figures of two young people
who had dismounted and were parting
at the foot of the gallery stairs.
"I will suy good night here nnd so
many thanks!" The girl's voice trem-
bled ou the stillness.
"That's not her father" one of the
listeners whispered. The men became
mute scarcely breathing from excess
of attention.

Too Well i:iuliped.
"What's the trouble between you nnd
Miss Sjnartlelgh. I hear your engage
merit's been broken off."
"Yes it has. She's too accomplished
for me."
"That's a queer reason to give. 1
don't believe I catch the drift of your
meaning."
"Well then to make it plain she
talks four modern languages bendes
two dead ones and after mature: delib-
eration I've concluded that this Is just
about live nnd a half more than I want
to tackle for life." Cleveland Leader.
