CULMINATION OF FEUD By C. E. HARRISON. Between the Maxwells and the Boyces there existed a feud as fierce as the historic one between the Montagues and the Capulets. Old man Maxwell hated old man Boyce with a rervor inherited from their fathers before them and Ethel Maxwell hated Carl Boyce with a fierceness reflected from her grandfather, old man Max well, while Carl Boyce hated Ethel 5 Maxwell as much as a well-favored young fellow could be expected to hate a pretty girl, albeit not so much us hlB uncle. Old Boyce, might desire. These being the somewhat complex ! conditions and all of the parties In the uUama were located for the sutni mer at the same coast resort. Now it happened that sailing was | Ethel Maxwell’s enthusiasm. So in the middle of a glorious afternoon Ethel found herself hounding over the billows of the bay with a taut sheet and a steady tiller. Carl Boyce had decided also to take a sail that afternoon, and was skimming over the waves alone with his j thoughts, when on a tack he came right across the bow of Ethel's boat. In fact. Ethel’s quick use of the tiller was all that prevented a collision. “A very awkward tack, Mr. Boyce," sung out Ethel, pertly. "Didn’t expect to run into ladies on the bay." retorted Carl. "Supposed a man was in the boat and could take care of himself.” Ethel flushed and sung out: "There’s man enough In this boat to beat you to the island for a silver | cup.” "Go ahead," came back the answer.! Now the island was far out at the entrance to the bay. and too near the open sea to make it safe sailing with but one In a boat. So intent were the contestants on making the best of their opportunities that they did not notice the gathering clouds. So it was that a catastrophe ensued right at the point of the island. White j making a tack on which they ran rather close together, a sudden gust of wind from the open sea lifted Ethel's boat fairly out of the water j and hurled it squarely against that of j Boyce. In an Instant both were in the water and both boats hopelessly cap sized. • Ethel was not a strong swimmer, ■ and with her skirts was in a bad way, but Boyce soon had a strong arm about her and another over a cap sized boat. "Well.’’ he said, with a grin, "here is a situation for a novelist.” "Please remove your arm," replied Ethel. “I can hang on quite well now. What are we going to do about it?" “I would suggest formal Introductions." remarked Carl. “Permit me to present Mr. Carl Boyce. Miss Max | well.” Then growing serious he con I tinned: “It would be a strange fate ! were we to die together—we wbc were born to hate each other.” "Do you think it is as bad as that?' i she asked, her fare blanching. "It is getting rougher every min ute," he replied. The next hour was a continuous «»ruggle with death. Finally a great wave engulfed them and they were' I carried with tremendous velocity a great distance and finally crashed, down on the very shore of the island Boyce happily retained consciousness, and when hia feet struck tht earth under the receding water he uttered a fervent prayer of thanksgiving He carried bla unconscious companion ashore and set about restoring her. Night was setting in before she was strong enough to set up. They were in a most embarrassing predicament The island was uninhabited, and the storm had driven all boats from the bay. "What is to be done?” she asked after they had sited the situation. ‘‘We will have to remain here tell night,” be replied gravely. She turned pale even In the white i nes of her exhaustion. "Oh It la impossible," she cried. “I fear It la the only thing pots! ! ble." “I had better have died In the bay," [ she said slowly. "I would never dan ! face my grandfather.” "Miss Maxwell,” said Boyce, “there Is a better way. We will both land at Flshvllle and there be marries.” "Mr Boyce!" "Miss Maxwell." "It Is a poor time to Jest " "I am not Jesting. You dare not meet your grandfather slone. Very well, lam not afraid of him We will meet him together. 1 dare not meet my uncle alone. You do not fear him. I will meet him with you.” A telegram from Flshvllle next day announced the safety of the two and when they aiVived later In the day all the pleasure seekers were at the train to meet them And speculation was rife. And (here was much whispering. Old Maxwell and Old Boyce glared at each other and looked grim Both re fused to yield the vantage point at the very spot where the passenger* muat alight. Carl Boyce alighted from the train, turned and helped Ethel down, then placing his arm about her, said: "Uncle George and Mr. Maxwell, permit me to present ray wife. The ceremony waa a little auddea. but we thought It heat undar the circumstances." Thera waa a great bussing and shouting In the crowd. The two old men looked Into each other's faces, j Then Old Man Maswell extended hia I hand, which Old Man Boyoe grasped. I (Copyright, by Dally atcry rob Co.)

McQuire languidly watched the smoke curl from hi* cigar, play ‘ n weaving circle* about his shapely face and head, then float off to the realms of pipe dreams. Presently a dreamy, j satisfied smile stole into his blue eyes He was so sure of her truth, integrity and love for himself. Adorable Lora He was hastening back to her and their wedding day at steamer speed. The half closed door of his room let In the sound of voices. It was Ed j Rainey aud Tom Larkin. McQuire had run into them somewhere abroad They were coming home on the samt steamer. "Gone, gone bad, isn't he?" Rainey was saying. “Believes that Loru i* Innocence personified Doesn't know j that she’s a good five years or more older than himself. Don't guess that she's out to marry a fortune. Don't ; know that she's, in turn, been sweet j heart to all of us, or anything of that affair of hers and Lambert’s, does he ? McQuire's cigar dropped from hl» parted lips. The red leaped in an ugly flame to his face. They were talking, these friends of his, of the glr! ha was to marry. His right band opened to slap little Rainey fair it his calumniating mouth. Larkins an swer came slowly, between puffs at his pipe; "McQuire is young Sh« isn't good enough for him. that's onl) too true. But, Rainey, the girl was only a little reckless, too much of » flirt.

Os that he wa. sure. After awhile the plan he would worl to confute these frienda came crowd Ing itaelf Into bis head. It was neithe ; new or original, but It would do. Rainey and Larkin found him dul company forthwith. Then Its reasoi came out. He had received a telegran at atarting. Hoped it was not so bai as stated. His fortune, to the las dollar, was in jeopardy. He had madi some foolish investment. Further hi would not talk.

Nothing will aui me better, either ” From New York McQuire wrote i , brief letter to I-ora: “My Dearest: I’m viewing the holt where It has all gone down. You m ! doubt have beard of the Parklnsot company crash? The private fortune/ they awamped with tbelr own stupen dous failure?

I have youth, health, strength and love left. You know I studied law. Behold a future Webster in yout j husband. I cannot wait to see you Lovingly, Phil.” Rainey waa with Lora when she re eeived tbia epistle. He watched het j pretty face turn pale, then flushed. "Os course It’* love in a cottage?" said Rainey. "Os course It Isn’t," she flared "la It a fact that he was fool enough to trust his Immense fortune In the keeping of that company he refer* to?" “Guess he did. He was tolerably frank about the matter. He la playing cheerful to you In this letter. He believes that nothing would separate your love from him." "What!" ahe nearly ahrieked; "mar ry a pauper?
