CHAPTER ir. "r
The last bell lisul rung. Those who
were going ashore had taken their de-
parture. Crowds of human beings dus-
k-red on tlie pier head and at the large
doorways of the warehouse which stood
ojmmi on the steamer wharf. As the
big ship slowly backed out there was
a buttering of handkerchiefs from the
mass on the pier, and an answering
flutter from those who crowded along
the bulwarks of the steamer. The tug
slowly pulled the prow of the vessel
around, and at last the engines of the
steamship began their pulsating throbs
—throbs that would vibrate night ami
day until the steamer reached an older
world. The crowd on the pier became
move and more indistinct to those on
board, and many of the passengers
went below, for the air was bitterly
cold, and the boat was forcing its way
down the bay among huge blocks of
ice. '
Two, at least, of the passengers had
taken little interest in the departure.
They were leaving no friends behind
them, and were both setting their faces
toward friends at home.
“Let us go down,” suid Wentworth
to Kenyon, “and see that we get seatVt
together at table befo/e all are taken.’
“Very good-,^Teplied his companion,
end they descended to the roomy
saloon, where two long tables were al-
ready laid with an ostentatious display
of silver, glassware and cutlery, which
made many, who looked on this wilder-
ness of white linen with something like
dismay, hope that; the voyage would be
smooth, which, as it was a winter pas-
sage, there was every chance it would
not be. The purser and two of his as-
sistants sat at one of the shorter tables
with a plan before them, marking off
the names of passengers who wished
to be together, or who wanted some
particular place at any of the tables.
The smaller side tables were still un-
covered, because t he number of passen-
gers at that season of the year was
comparatively small. As the places
were assigned, one of the helpers to the
purser wrote the names of the passen-
gers on small cards, and the other put
the cards on the tables.
One young woman, in a beautifully
fitted traveling gown, evidently of the
newest cut and design, stood a little
apart from the g-eneral group which
surrounded the purser and his assist-
ants. She eagerly scanned every face,
and listened attentively to the names
given. Sometimes a shade of disap-
pointment crossed her brow, as if sue
expected some particular person to pos-
sess some particular name which that
particular person did not have. At
last her eyes sparkled.
“My name is Wentworth,” said the
young man whose turn it was.
“Ah! any favorite place, Mr. Went-
worth?” asked the purser, blandly, as
if he had known Wentworth all his life.
“Xo, we don’t care where we sit;
but my friend, Mr. Kenyon, and myself
would like places together.”
“Very good: you had better eoine to
my table,” replied the purser. “Nos. 23
and 24—Mr. Kenyon and Mr. Went-
worth.”
The steward tool: the cards that were
given him, and placed them to cor-
respond with the numbers the purser
had named. Then the young woman
moved gracefully along, as if she were
interested in the names on the table.
She looked at Wentworth's name for a
moment, and saw iin the place next to
his the name of Mr. Brown. She gave
a quick, apprehensive glance around the
saloon, and saw the two young men
who had arranged' for their seats at
fable now walking leisurely towaifTthe
com pan ion way. She took the card with
the name of Mr. Brown upon it, and
slipped upon the fable another on which
was written: “Miss Jennie Brewster.”
Mr. Brown's card she placed on the
spot from which she had taken her own.
“T hope Mr. Drown is not particular
which place he occupies,” said Miss Jen-
nie, lo herself; “but at any rate I shall
see that I am curly for dinner, and I’m
sure Mr. Brown, whoever lie is, will not
lie so ungallant as to insist on having
this place if he knows his card was
here.”
Subsequent events proved Miss Jen-
nie's surmise regarding Mr. Brown’s
indifference perfectly well founded.
That young iynn searched for his card,
found it. and sat down on the ohnir op-
posite Miss Jennie, who already occu-
pied her chair, and ivas. in fact, the first
one at table. Seeing there would bo no
unseemly dispute about places, she be-
gan to plan in her own mind how she
would first attract the attention of Mr.
Wentworth. While thinking how be«t
to approach her victim, Miss Jennie
heard his voice. ^ *. ■ ■ ■
“Here yon arc, Kenyon, here are our
plaees.”
“Which is mine?” said the voice of
Kenyon. , :
“it doesn't matter,” answered Went-
worth. and then a thrill of fear went
through the genl le heart of M ins Jennie
Brewster. She had not thought of the
young man not earing which scat he
occupied, ami she dreaded Ihe possi-
bility of finding hersself next to Kenyon
rather Mian WentworUt. Her first es-
timate of the characters of the two
men seemed to In* correct. She always
thought of Kenyon as Hunyan, and she
felt certain that Wentworth wotHd be
the easier man of the two to influence.
Tlie next moment her fears were al-
layed, for lieuyon giving u rjipid glance
at tiie handsome young woman, delib-
erately chose the seat farthest from her.
and Wentworth, with; “I begyour par-
don," slipped ip and sat down on the
chair beside hey.
“Now,” thought Jgpnie, with a sigh
of relief, “our jKxdtions are fixed for t he
meals of the voyage.” Hhe had made her
plans for beginning an acquaintance
with the yeiing jnan. but they were ren-
dered unnecessary fry the gallant Mr.
Wentworth handing her the bill of fare.
Oh. thank you,” suid Miss Jennie, in
a low voice, which so musical 1hat
Wentworth glaiiced at Jier a second time
and saw how sweet and pretty and inno-
cent she was.
“I'm in luck," said the unfortunate
young man to himself,
Then he remarked aloud: “Wehu'.e
not nianj ladies \* itb us this voyage.”
Kb,” replied Mitt Brewster; “I Sup-
pose nobody real!-/ crosses at this time
of tha year ’udcsBaaiapelled to.”
“I can ansv er far two passengers that
such is the case.”
“Do you mean yourself us one?”
“Yes, myself and my irieml.”
“How plcasnrt jl must he,” said Miss
Brewster, rfto travel with u f ri'ernl. Then
erne is not lonely. I, unfortunately, am
traveling alone.
“I fancy,” said the gallant Went-
worth, “that if you are lonely while on
board ship it will be entirely your own
fault.
Miss Brewster laughed a silvery little
auglt. “I don’t know about that,” she
said. “I am going to that Meeea of all
Americans—Paris. My father is to meet
:ne there, and we are then going on to
he Itiviera together.”
“All! that will be very pleasant,” said
Wentworth. “The Riviera at this sea-
son is certainly a place to be desired.”
“So I have heard,” she replied.
“Have you not been across before?”
“No/this is my first, voyage. I sup-
pose you have crossed many times?”
“Oh, no,” answered the Englishman
“this is only my second voyage, my first
“Asleep, Kenyon?” he asked.
“Xo,” was t he answer.
“By George! John, she is one of the
most charming girls T ever met. Won-
derfully clever, too; makes a man feel
like a fool beside her*. She has read
nearly everything. Has opinions on all
our authors, a great many of whom I've
never heard of. I wish, for your sake,
John, that she had a sister on board.”
“Thanks, old man; awfully good of
you, l*m sure.” said Kenyon. “Don't
you think it’s about time to stop raving
and get into your bunk, and turn out
that confounded light?”
“All right, growler, I will,” was the
answer.
Meanwhile, in her own stateroom
Miss Jennie Brewster was looking at her
reflection in the glass. As she shook out
her long hair until it rippled down her
back, she smiled sweetly, and said to
herself:
“Poor Mr. 4Wentworth! Only the
first night out and he told me his name
was George.”

mand that the citizen be left free
to pursue his own happiness with-
out unnecessary interference by
government.
8. We believe that the issue of
greenbacks by a Republican con-
gress under the imperious exigen-
cies of a great civil war, and
which were then declared to be a
temporary expedient and their re-
tention in circulation by subse-
quent congressional action has
contributed to miseducate and to
debauch the public mind on ques-
tions of finance more than all
other causes combined. It has
miseducated our people as to the
proper financial functions of the
government and has tendered to
the propagation of fiatistic ideas
now so current in the land. It
has misled many of our people in-
to the belief that the government
can create values with its stamp,
and their constant redemption
and re-issuance has more than
once nearly bankrupted our treas-
ury and enabled the money chang-
ers to rob the people.
We demand the immediate re-
tirement of this government from
the banking business and that the
law authorizing the re-issuance
of the treasury note shall be re-
pealed and such promises be retir-
ed and cancelled. We favor the
establishment of a safe system of
banking under rigid government
supervision in order that the peo-
ple of this country may have at
all times a sound, safe and elastic
currency, amply sufficient for the
transaction of their business.
9. We congratulate the country
that thus far the credit and the
honor of the nation has been
maintained by the patriotic and
untiring efforts of President Cleve-
land and his secretary of the
treasury, John G. Carlisle, in the
unequal battle which they have so
long waged against the combined
strength of the cormorants of
Wall and Lombard streets, bull-
ionaires of the silver mountains,
aided and abetted by two congress-
men so grossly incompetent as
not to know the right and so un-
patriotic and dishonest as to pre-
fer their own political and finan-
cial aggrandizement to the good
of their country, and we call upon
all good citizens irrespective of
party affiliations to add to our
own their unqualified and hearty
indorsement of Cleveland and
Carlisle, two pure and unselfish
patriots..
10. We condemn the methods
adopted by those who have been
interested with the management
of the affairs of Democratic party
in Texas, they having used the
same solely for the purpose of re-
taining the present administration
in this state, and by which the
true Democracy of this state was
in a manner disfranchised at the
irimaries, and therefore the so-
called democratic nominations at
!?ort Worth have no binding force
upon any true democrat in this
state.

stepped out on the deck, and found it
not at al I as dark as they expected. Lit-

at -egulnr intervals in Ihe walls of the

moment in the darkness.

ble for men to measure value by
more than one standard as it is to
measure any other quantity,
and being firmly convinced that
a change in the standard for the
measure of value at this time
would result in a financial panic to
which the history of the world
furnishes no parallel and believing
that every government owes it to
its honor and to its citizens that it
shall so order its laws as to re-
quire all debts to be paid in money
as nearly as possible equal in val-
ue to the money in circulation at
the time of the creation 0 f the
debt.
We declare that it is the duty
of the United States to maintain
the present gold standard of the
measure of valae, to the end that
justice shall be done to all men
and the honor of the nation be
preserved.
We believe in the use of silver
as current money and the coinage
and the circulation of such amount
thereof as can be kept at a parity
with gold, but we oppose the free
and unlimited coinage of silver by
this government alone as a meas-
ure borrowed from populism and
fraught if successful, with dishon-
or and disgrace to the natiou and
destruction to the people.
7. We favor a tariff for revenue
only, sufficient in amount to sup-
port the government, economical-
ly administered. We demand a
return to frugal and simple gov-
ernment the abolition of all use-
less offices the rigid curtailment
of all expenses and the return of
the government to its ordinary

HOW TO OURE YOURSELF
WHILE USING IT.
The tobacco tiabit grows on a
man until his nervous system is
seriously affected, impairing
health, comfort a id happiness. To
quit suddenly is too severe a
shock to the sy stem, as tobacco
to an inveterate user becomes a
stimulant that his system continu-
ally craves. “ Baco-Curo ” is a
scientific cure for the tobacco
habit, in all its forms, carefully
compounded after the formula of
an eminent Berlin physician who
has used it in his private practice
since 1872, without a failure. It
is purely vegetable and guaran-
teed perfectly harmless. You
can use all the tobacco you want
while taking “ Baco-Curo.” It will
notify you when to stop. We give
a written guarantee to cure per-
manently any case with three box-
es, or refund the money with 10
per cent interest. “ Baco-Ouro ”
is not a substitute, but a scientific
care, that cures without the aid of
will power and with no inconven-
ience. It leaves the system as
pure and free from nicotine as the
day you took your first chew or
smoke.

La Crosse, Wie.—Gentlemen; For
forty years I used tobacco in all
its forms. For twenty-five years
of that time I was a great sufferer
! from general debility and heart
! disease. Fqr fifteen years I tried
| to quit, but couldn’t. I took va-
rious reme.lies, among others “No
j To-Bac,” “The Indian Tobacco
Antidote,” “Double Chloride of
Gold,” etc., etc., but none of them
did me the least bit of good. Fi-
nally, however, I purchased a box
of your “ Baco-Curo ” and it has
entirely cured me of the babit in
all its forms, and I have increased
thirty pounds iu weight and am
relieved from all the numerous
aches and pains of body and mind.
I could write a quire of paper up-
on my changed feelings and con-
dition. Yours respectfully,
P. II. Marbury,
Pastor C. P. Church, Clayton, Ark.
