GOrrfopclcle CHAPTKK XVII Continued, "I wish Old Graham was dead. But perhaps It is as well that he is hero; I can report to him at once, or bleed him again. Confound him, I am not in his power, but he is in mine. Why should I oare for him, cr be alarmed if he were here this moment! I am master, and master I shall remain while there is a plank afloat, or it rag above it." In this way Pox worked off hie anger, and with it his confldenoe in his own wonderful powers. Be was emphatically a man of action, but, when exoited, his command of words was equa . to the energy with wbioh he used tl.em. He put the map Frenauld had given him into his pocket, and then, taking his arm, walked back with him to the fire. They had but .lust reaohedthere, when a tall form emerged from the darkness, and Uneas, chief of the Montauks, enveloped in a scurlet mantle, that was dripping with moisture, stood before them. "Xou are true to your word," said Uneas, shaking Fox's hand. "You have come, but whero is he?" Fox did not need to ask who the "he" referred to was. "See here, Uneas," he said, motioning the chief to follow him to the boat. As Fox passed tbe fire he ploked up a brand, and, approaching the boat, he drew back the awning and held the light above the uncor scions man's faoe. "Do you know who that is?" he asked. "Ralph Denham!" said the chief. And a wild light burned in his black eyes. "He is yours," said Fox. "Now do with him as you promised." "Canyou lift him out of the boat?" asked I&ioas. "I win have tliat done." Fox motioned to tbe sailors, and they lifted the bed out of the boat, and placed It near the fire, Frenauld throwing an oil-cloth over ti e pale faoe, to shield it from the rain. "Come, let us unload, while we are about it," said )?ox; and with his own hands, he helpo i to take out the boxes, and placed then-, under the bed on which Balph Denham was lying. With his customary energy. Fox worked, and made others work, till the boat, with Frent.uid, and all the sailors, excepting Don, :he cabin boy, was making his way to the ship. "You see," said Fox to the chief, when the boat was out of sight and hearing, "that I trust riyself to you, for I believe the Montt.uk chief will keep his word." 'So far, no man has appeared to doubt my word. I have, at times since seeing yon, felt that it was not becoming a brave man to do as I am doing; bat the Montauks art. not prepared for war, as are Balph Denham, and his men." " You are right Cunning Is often better than courage. You have now in your power the man who has scorned you, and made your life unhappy. Are you going to ask, in such a case, if it be right to put them out of the way? Of course not, though, in accordance with your promise, you must not put him out of the way till I give the word. " . "Bat in that tv ay I might be forced to keep him forever," said the chief. "How so?" "You are a sillor, here to-day, far away to-morrow, and I may not be able to get to you, nor you to me," replied Uneas. "Before I leave these waters again I will leave you free to act as you please. Bat now, while it is yet dark night, might it not be better to remove this man?" said Fox, pointing to the bed. "I am ready fi r that" Uneas placed to his lips a peculiarly carved bone, known to old hunters as a Veer call," and blew a low, plain tivo blast, that sounded exactly like the appealing cry of a wounded fawn. In answer, a low whistle came back from the cliffs a id the darkness. Uneas repeated the call. Then was heard the fall of rapidly approaching feet, and the quick breathing of men, as if engaged in a life and death race. In another instant Old Somonk and his son, accompanied by two tall Indians, stood in the presence of the chief, and the old man, who seemed to be the leader, said: "Unoas, we are here!" CHAPTER XVHJ. OaPTAIX FOX PERFECTS HIS WOKK AND STASIS OF TO FtXD COLONEL ORAnAlL "There is a sLieping man hero whom yoa muii carry to the plaoe we have prepared for him," said the Montauk chief, pointing to the bed which looked strangely like a:i Indian bier. "Ha," gruntel Old Somonk, as he took a place near the head of the bed. "I have helped to carry your father to the last sleeping plaoe of the Montauk chiefs, and I have heard my father say that on his shoulder rested the head of the mighty 'iVyandaueh, when they bore him to the same plaoe." "We care not to hear that now, " said Uneas, half in four, half in anger. "It is the privilege of an old man to speak.1 Yonder ground Is the resting place of the dead chiefs of the Montauks, not a sleeping place for live white men," persisted Old Somonk, who now talked with a wonderful fluency, contrasted with his reticence the first night he met Frenaulc . "Apd you are aere to obey me, not to give opinions. Then addressing the others, he conliaued: "The word of the ehief has ever been the law of the Xbntauks. Come, my braves, and raise the burden to your shoulders." The men, including Old Somonk, obeyed him. "Stay you hore, Captain Fox, till I return." Uneas waved his hand and was about to pass away, uut Fox stopped him by asking: "When will you return?" "Before the ;jun rises," replied the chief. "And it will be safe for me to remain here?" ' "As safe as the child over whom a fond mother watches." "Very well; I shall wait." Without a torch to light the way, Uneas led the braves through the darkness. By this time the wind and rain had died oat, leaving the night air cool and bracing. The stillness w is that of death . Even the footsteps of the Indians and their regular breathing ht.d a spectral sound. After walking about an hour, with the long, straight titride that characterizes the Indian, Uneas oalled to his followers to stop, and again blew a low blast on the deer call. In Instant a light flashed up, and an old woman appeared bearing a torch; it was the wife of Old Somonk. "Is all ready? 1 asked the ohlef, speaking in the Montauk tongue. "The tomb of the mighty Wyandauoh is open and a light burns therein. Come with me." By the light or her torch it could be seen that she fi.ced a hill, the summit of which was lost in the darkness, while directly in fron i was an open space like a small eave or vault, within whleh rburned a dim light. into tnis toe tour men witn tneir Burden marched, and they placed the bed onwhlob Captain Denham lay on a tag slab, the stone that covered the turns Ttmh ot Vi'vHndftuch, tbs WWMb mi ef WW MotttauM.

"Take yon chargo of him, " said Vncas, addressing the old woman, "and your son and husband will remain on guard outside. " "How long has the white youth been sleeping?" asked Somonk's wife, as she held tho shell lamp above Ralph's face. "That matters not; ho will soon ft Walk " "Then what shall I do?" "Givo him food if he wants it," "But ho will ask whore ho Is?" "If so, toll him ho is the prisoner of Uneas, chief of tho Montauks." The chief strodo out of the vault and, followed by tho t wo Indians, who had helpod Old Somonk and his son to carry Balph Denham, hurried in tho direction ot the principal village of the Montauks. They traveled with surprising rapidity for mon on foot, and after an hour and a half they saw a glow in advanco, that told them they were noaring the objective point They wore yet n quartor of a mile or more away from the lights, when a voice directly in front callod out: "Whar goes Unoas, de ohlef of do Montauks, sich a night?" "Is that you, Dinah?" asked tho startled Indian. " 'Tis Dinah, en no one else, " croaked the old hag. "En I wants for to ax whar hez been die night uv storms de ohief of de Montauks?'' "It matters not," said I'ncas; "go you to your oabin, and go to bed." "Wy should I go to my cabin wen dar's evil a prowlin' roun' in do darkness? Wy should dls ole 'oman go to bed wen do sun's nigh to rlsin?" "Go to bed to sleep," growled tho chief, about to move on. "Dar'll be sloepin' 'null in do bed whar deze ole bones'll soon be laid. Your fader en his fader hev gone to dat sleep, en de cuss of do Great Sporrlt, cz doy loved, will fall on him ez places de livin' nifih onto 'em " "Hist, you hag!" interrupted the chief; "what do you know about my acts?" "Look up abovo yer head, Uneas, Chief of tho Montauks, on tell me what yeh sees dar. " Between his eyes and the distant light, the ehief saw tho shriveled arm of the old negress pointing to the sky, and involuntarily his eyes followed tho direotion. "I only see night and darkness," said Uneas. "Night and darkness, yas, but beyond de dark cloud de stars am shinin'. Your eyes 1b young, en can't sco 'em; my eyes is old, but sees 'em blazln' like de suns, en dey sez: 'Dinah, Dinah, (latter uv de African King Molloka, do chief Unoas brings disgrace on de great name Wyandauch, en from this night on, ef he do not make change, hez ind is sot, en de glory of de Montauks shall go down Into de darkness now 'bove yer head.' " Tho old woman spoke tragically, and the ohlef himself the child of superstition shuddered, but it was only for a moment. He had gone out of the beaten paths ot his fathers, ho had measured, so well as passion would permit, the depths into which he was sinking. If ever, and he did sometimes question his own course, ho gave thought to the unprlncely acts ho contemplated and was then performing, the beautiful face of Lea Hedges would flash like a blazing meteor across the sky of his darkened brain, and spur him with fury to continue tho tool of this adventurer, but as lie thought tho avenger of his own imagined wrongs. "Leave me now," he said, striding ahead; "leave rue, but do not imagine that the hospitality extended to you for twenty years by our people, gives you tho privilege to insult their chief. Go to your oabin, and hold your peace, or go from the land of the Montauks." "J2n ef I don't go to my eaiiin, en ef I don't hold my peace, wat don?" shrieked Dinah, still keeping in the chief's advance. "Then I will find a means to drlvo vou away," said Unoas, raising his hand, as if he would striko her, but tho next instant letting it fall heavily, as if in shame, by his side. Dark as it was, her q nick eye caught the gesture, and it seemed to madden her. "Once," she shouted, "do chiofs of do Montauks scorned to raise dar bans 'gainst any but warriors armed foh battle, But den dar hearts was strong and brave. Ole women and helpless men dey keerod foh. Dey wasn't cowards and murd'rora. Oh, I know it all! You can't hide it from me, onless yeh kill me. But kill me, en don see if yer red of me; 6ee ef de spcrrit of ole Dinah stays in de groun' en dls wo'n body. See den, Unoas of de Montauks, ef I don't stay ebor and eber by yer side. En wen all is still in de camp, on you lie down on do deo' skin in de wigwam, ef my hans don't keep yer eyes from shettin'. En don louder'n do tunder ez rolled over deso hills dls night, ye'll hear me shoutin', dough no one else kin, even yer wife lyin' by yer side, ef ye ever gets one, 'Wake, wake, Uneas of de Montauks, murd'rers oannot sleep in peace on diB yor airth.' " The chief, now thoroughly alarmed, as were the men following close behind him, was about to address the old woman in a kinder way, for, like all his tribe, ho stood in awe of her, but she had suddely vanished. He stopped and called her name, and, as ho listened for a reply, the ominous hooting ot an owl came back from a distant grove. "Hah, let us goon. She is a devil," said the chief. Tho mon grunted, to indicate that they had heard him, but made no other reply. They were not sure that Uneas was right and the old priestess wrong. Though very o'.d in years and worn in body, tho old nogress possessed a vitality that, for endurance, would have tested the superb chief now striding on In silence. This was one reason why the Moutauks held her in nwe; and then sho never complained of ncho, or showed Sinn of sickness, which was eminently proper, seeing thai the claimed to have tho power to cured, or relievo all human Ms. "At the oloso of her weird denunela- ' n of the ehief, she sprang lightly to i f5 side, as tho hare does when the 1 4inds aro close behind, and there, 1 Id en by the darkness, she remained t the Indians had passed. Dinah chuckled to herself at the suooess of her stratagem, and, rising, quickly, she followed the three men with a step lighter than their own, and at a pace that kept them at one distance between her eyes and tho light She watched Uneas, till he entered the house to which Colonel Graham and his servant had been recently changed. It was a log slructuro with open chinks, very favorable lor one outside to listen. The chief wont up to the couch on which Colonel Graham was Btrotched. Such men find sleep a difficult matter. Tho Colonel was on tho point of shouting for hiB servant, who was sleeping in a little hut adjoining, when, by the light of a shell lamp, burning on a bench near by, he saw Uneas approaching. "Woll, worthy chief," said Graham, rising on his elbow, "do you also find it hard to sleep?" "One should not sleep whon there is greut work to do," roplled Uneas, as ho sat on the bench, and took tho shell lamp in his hand. "That is most true; but you look as if you had boon out in the storm," "And so I have. " "I did not know that tho Montauks loved tho storm. You would muko a good sailor." "Many of the Montauks and our neighbors, the BUlnlcooks, are sailors; but I should not liko it. Yet I was up to-night at the beacon hill looking for ships." "Xiooklng for ships?" repeated tha Ooioiiftl, sitting bolt upright- In pJ, fto4

Looking for (ho Wanderer." said Un cas, gazing at his guest out of his halfolosed eyes, without seeming to do so. "But what Interest can you have in tho Wanderer?" "I know her captain, and want to see him again." "You may nevor seo him again." "I shall see him to-morrow," "What!" exclaimed Graham, startled and doubting. "The Wanderer is at anchor Inside tho point." "Who told you that?" "I saw her with my own eyes." "But how could you tell it in the darkness, that the ship was the Wanderer?" "I couldn't, if the offlcer, I mean Fox, had not oomo ashore." "And you saw Fox to-night?" said the Incredulous Graham. "I did, and spoke with him." "And where is he now?" "On the beaoh, waiting for my re turn." "And you told him I was here?" "I did." "What did he s.iy?" "Ho said that he was going through our lands to Sag Harbor In the morning, and that he would 6eo you on the way," replied the chief, now as cool as the other was agitated. "And did he show any surprise on learning that I was here?" "I cannot say. Fox looks as If he was always surprisod and determined never to be surprised again. Like tho animal from which he takes his name, he ia always looking about him, and ready to attack or run." "He is a brave man, and so never runs." "Tho brave sometimes show their bravery by running; tho man that never runs is a fool. Hut 1 must leavo you if you would sleep to-nlghtj in another hour it will be day." to be contincbd.1 Concerning Governments. Government is the exercise of sovereignty, and in its evolution the tendency is to divido sovereignty into departments, as is done in England and in the United States, where the departments are executive, legislative and judicial, making the government one of law and not of the whims and caprices of men. At the outset governments were absolute monarchies. The word monarchy Is Greek, and literally means the rule of one person. Tiie strongest types of absolute monarchies, outside of the kingships of some African chiefs, are Russia and Persia, where the will of the ruler overrides everything. European monarchies, like Austria, Italy, Spain and Germany, have constitutions and legislative bodies which limit the will of sovereigns. Engand is as much a republic as the United States, in fact the Queen is only a figurehead, with not; even the veto powers upon legislation which our President possesses. The terms "Queen" and "Her Majesty" are ouly other names for tho British Government. The House of Commons, made up of the representatives of the people, practically governs the British Empire, and a veto of any act of that body has not been ventured upon In nearly a century- The monarch would not now dare veto an aet of Parliament In tho evolution of government, the people gradually become the real source of rower, and the nominal rulers merely represent them. Even Russia must soon become a constitutional government, and its people must be represented in a national legislature. This cannot be postponed much longer. A constitution Is only a body of general laws or rules to which all legislation must conform, and when the courts decide that any act of legislation is contrary to any provision cf the constitution, such legislation Is void. Our constitution is a writieu one, as most constitutions are, but that of England Is unwritten, bm is made up of the usage? and customs of ages and the accepted legislation of the land, and it is, no doubt, more flexible than ours. In England, everybody and everything are subordinate to the rules and regulations (laws) prescribed for the government of society, and a wrong-doer is one who wrongs all society. If one man strikes another, he strikes all organized society, and all society, with its .far-reaching instrumentalities, throttles the wrong-doer for its protection. Pullman (111.) Journal. Caprices of Fortune. Every imaginative person cherishes in his heart tho hope that some unexpected windfall may bring him wealth. In a very few instances this secret wish has been gratified. Years ago, a lady named Burch was one of a London crowd that had assembled to see a street pageant Suddenly she noticed an old gentleman faint and confused with the pressure of the crowd, which pronounced him drunk. Discerning with better insight that he was not drunk, but very ill, Miss Burch led him to a seat, found him somewhere a glass of water, and in a few minutes restored his scattered energies. He thanked her warmly, asked her name, and departed to be heard of no more till a few clays ago, when asollcitor called to inform Miss Bv.'ch that the old gentleman had bequeathed her the immense reward for such a service of nearly a million dollars. It is said that Albert Way, the well-known archaeologist, came by a fortune in this wise. Crossing Pall Mali he cannoned against an old gentleman, and discomfited him. After mutual apologies and the Interchange of civilities, cards were exchanged, and on each card was imprinted "Mr. Albert Way." The older gentleman at his death had no natural heir, and left his fortune to the other Albert Way. These two Incidents seem more like fairy tales than veritable happenings. Stories of unexpected fortunes, of course, are as common as blackberries. Somebody is always making or finding or inheriting a heap of money which seems to himself almost to have come from the clouds. Worthless shares become valuable. A workingman discovers a mine; or a relative, from whom nothing was expected, suddenly heaps everything on the kinsman who bored him least, as occurred last year within our own knowledge. But alas! these delightful things generally happen to other people, and our castles in air have no foundation in fact. in Negro raveyarls. Negro graves in the far South are sometlnios curiously garnished with tho bottlesoi medicine used by the departed in their final illness, an l the duration of the malady is easily iruossod by tho number of bottles. Often these are the only things to mark tho mound, and everything about tho graveyard bears tho marks of the haste characteristic of a superstitious people In all matters concerning the dead.

Be on your Guard. If some grocers urge another baking powder upon you in place of the "Royal," it is because of the greater profit upon it. This of itself is evidence of the superiority of the "Royal." To give greater profit the other must be a lower cost powder, and to cost less it must be made with cheaper and inferior materials, and thus, though selling for the same, give less value to the consumer. To insure the finest cake, the most wholesome food, be sure that no substitute for Royal Baking Powder is accepted by you. Nothing can be substituted for the Royal Baking Powder and give as good results.

Prof. Garner's Monitor Business. Word comes that Prof. Gnrnr, who went to Africa a good while ago, armed with a phonograph and other apparatus in order to pick up the lauguage if monkeys, has arrived on the coast, ana that be has been entirely successful Id picking up monkey Hiiro. He has succeeded In recordlnit over 800 monkey words, which he estimates Is fully twothirds of the whole vocabulary. In addition to this he has Rot several monkeys with him that are learning to talk In other languages, one of which can swear a little In German, Prof, darners monkey business Is likely to brlag him fame, but It probably won't do very much good to the monkeys or to mailkind. If they can utter as much as SCO words, however, they might be trained sufficiently to become members of Ne'V York's 400. An Intelligent monkey could go through the evolutions of that organization well enough, and those wto are now engaged In it could be utilized in other occupations. Reading Berald. Wants Their Necks Wrung. Au Ohio genius has Just applied for a pan tent on a device which he Is confident will soon supersede the electric chair, the gallows, and all other machinery tor the execution of criminals, ill invention Is a chair in which the criminal to be executed Is securely fastened. It hns a kind of helmet attachment, which ju st as securely holds the head. When everything Is ready a trigger releases a strong spring, which causes the helmtit to rotate and wrings the victim's nack, much as one would wring the neck of a chicken. The Inventor thinks that the death caused by his device would be certain, Instantanous, and as palulesscts any that could be devised. But what's the matter with the gullotlne? One would as soon have his head chopped oft as wrung off, and It could hardly hurt so much. An Electric Loom, The Thomson Electric Welding Comnany, Lynn, Mass., has, It Is stated, just secured control of an electric loom which will revolutionize the present munner of weaving all kinds of textile fabrics and the cost for labor will be much cheaper by the new method.

The art of confessing one thing with another flourishes In every country In the world. It was in Canada, for in stance, that a newspaper advertisement of a nursing bottle concluded as follows: "When tho baby Is done drlmlna it must be unscrewed and laid In a cool place under a lap. If the baby does not thrive on fresh milk It should be boiled." But It was a Boston paper which contained an announcement that certain gentlemen had "filed a remonstrance to the proposed widening of Chestnut Hill avenue with the Brookllne selectmen!"

A Gat Story. A member of the Zoological Society says: "I once had a cat which always sat up to the dinner table with mo, and had his napkin round bis neck and bis plate ar.J some fish. He was his paw, of course, but he wa very Dartlcular and behaved with extraordinary decorum. When he had finished his fish I sometimes gave him a piece of mine. One day he was not to be found when the dinner-bell rang, so we began without him. Just as the plates were put around pass came rushing up stairs and sprang into his chair, with two mice In his mouth. Before he could be stopped he dropped a mouse on his own plate and then one on mine. He had divided his dinner with me, as I had often divided mine with him." London Answer.
