JIM.

We belonged to the surplus population, Jim and I, but we did not know it. The big world into which we came was crowded to overflowing with just such puny, unwashed, illfed little wretches as we, came unconcious into the sunless, teemintc alley, where countless others like ourselves herded. We didn't know we were a problem, Jirn and I, we didn know that we and our kind were baffling the wisdom of statesmen, Jim and I but tf we had known all about it, I doubt if we

have occupied the situation more philosophical'v. We slept as quietly in the underground celler, down whose oozy steps the rain and ruin of years made slippery passage, or bestowed our selves as naturally, if need be under some stranded wavside cart, as if it were precisely the tiling heaven had adapted ui for, from the be!*inn:nj. lim was older and bigger than I

tail, likely lad. fifteen of these harder mg und tougheniug years had made him keen and sharp as a terrier, and just the lad to look after ii forlorn wait of a little £irl like myself. And Jim. after he had blackcd hoots all day, or sold newspapers of an afternoon, was (=ure to look after

me, and

wc took supper together out of

the same

bowl of porridge.

Tim

wasn't my brother, oh no! I used t» wish he was my brother, though, sometimes. iust because I was so proud of him.

The old man that kept the cellar, you

see

had picked Jim up from somewhere when his folks died, and picked me up from somewhere when my foil died, and

we had somehow fallen toge'.her all along. ,. Just down beyond the jogo! our alley, where it turned a sort ot gray corner, and was darker nnd dirtier than everjust there stood an old grav church with a clock in the tower—an old, old mossy church, and an old, old clock that passed its withered hands over it-} wizened face, and looked sleepily through them down into our alley on one side, and into a busv.noisv thoroughfare on the other.

old clock had dozed there till its head was all on one side, and you -couldn't be sure whether it told the right time or not but of a summer afternoon, when it was getting quite dusk down in our alley, a red ray from the setting sun used to "settle for a minute right down on

the face

that

of the sleepy old clock then it

would seem to rouse up out of a pleasant dream, and strike the hour as sharp as need be. and then I knew it was time to look out for Jim. I'd see him turn the corner, with his old straw hat on, and his patched shoes, or barefoot maybe, for

matter, and we'd setoff for a stroll together—a strol! to the wharves. °Ve o-eneiallv haunted thewarves, Jim and f, when we went a-pleasuring. They were so grand, the warves so busy, the warves so altogether different from out aiiev. with the ships crowding ro.ind them, and"the fluttering flags here and there on the masts, and the b'i?y sailors getting in freights. Sometimes Jim would get a job

for

half an hour, and leave me lurking among the cotton hales, or sitting sol.tarv in some safe corner till he came back. He always came hack. And then sometimes wc would linger about there till nightfall. Then the wart'was solemn and silent, and vou could hear the water rushing up a 'ainst

the

great beams underneath, and

see here and there a light gleaming trom «D rie lone lantern among the shrouds, and he grav water str^rlu,. beyond we knew not whither and if Jim and I had owned it all, we could not have loved it

beButonedav

lim got a job that lasted

longer than usual, snd grew scared and iineasv as night came on, and he didn't come lwek. Wandering trom the piace where lie had set me, shy and fearsome as a water-rat, but as determined I looked for him everywhere, but in vain- then I went back to my post, for hadn't he said, as he always said, "don't be afraid, Jenny 111 come back, for sure, vou know And then I waited and. till finally I fell asleep among the bales and barrels, and lorgot my troub-

In the morning a forlorn and desolate little creature enough, I learned l'r®m some compassionate 'longshoreman that the great ship where Jim had been to work had sailei awav with him aboard. A wild and passionate burst of weeping greeted this news, ana a pitiful throng of people gathered about me, freight men and sailors mostly, but among their, suddenly appeared the quiet tace of a Quaker lady, who was distributing books among the sailors. They told her my tale, and seeing me utterly friendless, she wiped my tear-stained face with her white handkerchief, and took me awav. I had no friends. I was no better than a masterless dog, and worth far less.

But she

took me to a great clean, bare,

and quiet place—an institution they called it—where there were manv others as homeless and wretched as I. And there thev washed me and made me so clean and fresh that I thought the real me the :an*ed, red-eyed, unkempt surplus atom of humanity that had been me,

was gone

awav over seas with Jim, and

this rosv cheekcd child was another me, newly come into the worid. Then one dav there came a grand and stately ladv, who took me away to live with her, and be her own little girl. The ladv wore shining silks and lived a splendid house, and had a lad in a velvet jacket who was about as big as Jim. It was all like a strange bright dream, it I could have only forgotten Jim. But I could not. ]im was surplus population no longer, perhaps he was drowned his ragged jacket and crownless hat might be buried now away down under the sea. Nobody aboHtme'now wore patched shoes, or trowsers out at the kness, and nobody, it seemed to me, not even Louis, who was so kind to me, not even he, had an eye as bright and soft as Jim's, or a hand as warm. And so I never torgot Jim, but always in my heart of hearts I seemed listening and waiting for him.

Sometimes I used to lure Louis down to the wharves, and always wh«n I walked by mvself, my steps turned thitherward, and thus it was that I never lost aio-ht of the ships ,and dimly, faintly, unreasonably, looked for the return of Jim.

But it began to be years since dear old Jim went away, and Louis was a tall youth home from college, and I

was~~

well, folks callcd me a young lady, and said that I would marry Louis some day. And perhaps they might have been right but how could I be a lady—a real lady, you know—with an old straw hat and a raeged jacket stowed away in my heart? Even after I grew up, I had fits of silent frettjpg for Jim that seemed a§ if they would eat-my life away. Mis. Belden said it was because I was gfj&fflxtg, she took me away one bright fWfttrrfi .. .A.**

the sea-shore. Oh, the sea-shore! cannot tell you what I felt when I first saw the tea—the real sea —stretching away from the white line of shore, throbbing and sounding as it brimmed to the horizon's edge. This was the sea, the glorified sea. the sea no longer grimy and smoky and gray with getting its living, but the sea translated, purified, made holy as il after death. The days went and came, shining and beautiful and every day I walked on the shore with Louis, ran races with the breeze, picked up 6helis or gathered seaweed, or watched the sunset gilding the sails of some far-flitting ship. Louis face was sweet in those days and kind as sunlight, and his voice was soft and low whe= he spoke to me, for he said we were old friends now, and had known each other alwavs. One afternoon we strayed farther than usual, and, the twilight deepening as we walked, I think wts both forgot everything, save that we were young and happy, and life was glorious. Love! 'I he word dropped warm from his lips, and seemed to color all my future with rose tints. All my past seemed sinking out of sight. 1 lie gates of paradise were open, and I Was tree to wal' therein if 1 would. Not tor me I he barrenness, the disappointment, that blighted our lives. I might make mine what I would, with wealth and love for my servants, and luxury and joy at my command, Ah, well I remember th: afternoon by the sea!—the long line white boach, the overhanging cliffs, the twilight touching the water with a golden glow, and glittering on the tall masts, and a ship lying at anchor beyond. Oh, life was so beautiful!—oh! love was so beautiful! A lightness of heart, a capricious intangible, elf-like mooi fell upon me, born perhaps of the very overflow ol bliss. I remember clapping my hands as I skipped along, and challenging Louis to a race. Perhaps he had urged me too persistently to respond to his affection, to when I would be his wife Wife! 1 wanted to be no one's wife just then, but only to love and to live.

Would I answer him? sighed Louis. "When you catch me," I responded, mockingly, flitting about the sand. Awa I went, with Louis following, breathless. We rounded the curve of the shore, and I was just about sinking down upon the sand to wait for him, when an old boat with a broken oar caught my eye it lay swinging in the shadow

just

where a great

rock overhung the beach. Lightly, thoughtlessly. I stepped into the tiny craft, and waving my handkerchief laughingly to Louis, caught up the oar and set myself afloat. I scarcely thought what I was doing it was a mere caprice born of lightness of heart and youthful thoughtlessness. But a single glance at Louis' countenance roused me to the lolly I was committing. •'Come back Come back he cried "the current will carry you out of reach in a moment."

Still laughing, I endeavored to obey. Dexterously I worked the broken oar, diligently Tsteadied the frail little vessel but°all inv efforts only seemed to bear me lurtherand further trom the anxious face that was watching me.

Perhaps if Louis then had plunged into he water. a few strong strokes of his arm might have reached and saved me. I do not know.

ouis was no swimmer

and, besides, that was not his way of doing things. His was a deliberate and loughtiul, rather than a rash and venturesome nature. He called to me eagerly that he was going for help I should wait I should drop the oar in a few moments he would get a boat. I saw him hastening along the shore at the top of his speed I saw the solitary shore, the deserted fisher huts, the far stretches of sand he would have to travel before reaching the little fishing village I saw it all, but diinl now. for I was floating further and further away.

Wearily I dropped the oar and sank back in the boat. Surely I need do nothing moiv. Oil, surely Louis would rescue nie! he would not let me die alone within reach of his loving arms! Night was creeping on, with twilight on his garment's hem. I could see that lone and shadowy ship lying at anchor beyond the bar. If only I could reach that ship! But the current would drift me past her in an instant. Wildly and longingly now I called for help, stretching mv arms out yearningly toward that silent vessel but nothing answered me. The shore had grown far and dim, and dimly, strangely the stars coming out with their unfamiliar beauty made me afraid. Sad, solitary and deserted was 1 going to my death out of all that bright afternoon, that overflowing love, that fullness of life and pleasure proffered me?

Afraid? Well, yes, I was aftaid for one brief moment, as I cowered back into the boat, shrinking in the soltitude of the awful waste of waters, a fear of that unknown world into which I seemed sailing oppressed me. But I bethought myself that if I were to die, it were better to die bravely. Perhaps I was going to meet Jim. If I were in that other world, that ought to be a cheery thought. No doubt he died bravely. But was he dead? Jim, my old staunch friend, whose glad, good face had brightened my wretched childhood, oh, where was he?

It is said that in the hour of death the memory ot past events is preternaturally vivid. And as my mind reverted to those old days, torgetting my later life, forgetting my later iriends, and forgetting Louis, I felt sure that I was going to die. A trance of peace fell upon me, in which I seemed to clasp Jim's warm hand again as in days of old. "Jim! Jim!" I called aloud, rousing myself as from a dream, yet dreaming still. But nothing answered me. The darkness was growing deeper, the current more rapid, and Louis, with his soft taper fingers, would never reach me now.

Unconscious, half delirious, I must have been, perhaps, for it seemed to me that Jim, on whose name I called, was a spirit, and that his presence, somewhere near rr.e, was upholding me in this hour of need, as I drifted further and further away from all earthly help. How long, know not how far, I know not it seemed to me I had been on the way all eternity, and—Had I or had I not heard through that death dream an answenng cry? Did I or did I not see mistily, as through a veil, the spars and shrouds of that suent vessel that had stood afar off watching my struggle with death? And, great God! was it Jim's face—dear old Jim's face—bending over me, and was this heaven? "My dear? said Mrs. Belden, coming into my room one morning, "you are getting quite strong again the sea air has done you a world of good—in fact, you look better, I think, than before your ,accident. I am thihking we may as well return 10 the city as soon as you like,"

I was lying on a couch by the •window looking out upon the sea. .jjp5*

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY QAXRTTR

"Well," said I, absently, in a half reverie. "You feel quite strong, do you not, dear "Oh yes. ma'am," said I, rousing myself "quite strong—"tronger than ever."

I was stronger t.ian ever since that night when Jim saved my life, swimming out to my sinking boat against the current, and risking his life to help an unknown waif, unwitting that it was his little nursling of old who was in deadly peril—since that night a world of new thoughts had come crowding in upon me, scaring me with their strength, and making me ashamed of the idle silken life I was leading. I know not what promo tion of change, of banishment was tugging at my heart this morning as I looked out over the gleaming waters, and filled my_eves with tears. '•You are sorry to leave the seashore saia Mrs. Belden. '"I was thinking of Jim," said I honestIv. "How can I leave Jim?"

Mrs. Belden's face flushed. "Jenny," said she severely, "of course we all think a good deal of your sailor friend-for saving your life but you must be aware that he is no fit companion for you, and that his constant attendance upon you sincc that accident has been a matter of much annoyance both to myself and Louis."

At that moment Louis' tall figure appeared at the door a queer smile was on his pale, thin face, as, holding out his long white hand to me said, "Jenny, your sailor's below.' "I have just been telling Jenny," said Mrs. Belden, "that we must get her away from the seashore to free her from these low associates."

Low associates !—Jim, my piince of men, my savior"1. "I see but one course," added Mr... Belden, as Louis stood silent.

I too saw but one course and yet these two had been so kind to me all these vears, they had made my life so luxurious and pleasurable should I go away trom their, into the obscurity and poverty ofmj early life again

At that moment Jim's sunburned face appeared at the door. He stood with his cap in his hand, eager yet modest, his face alight, his eyes gleaming behind Loais' thin, calm countenance. "I sail the dav after to-morrow, Jenny," he said, "and I couldn't ruk the chance of noi seeing you."

Mrs. Belden made a haughty gesture with her hand, as if she would have ordered off the intruder. "Wait, mother," said Louis, calmly. "Of course Jenny's good sense will tell her what is right, and she belongs to me, you know."

I saw Jim give a great start. The blood flushed up hotly in his brown cheeks. There was a pause for a moment then Jim said, passing his hand over his forehead, as ii" he were not quite clear as to what he heard: "Is it so with thee, my little Jenny? Will my li'.tle girl be happy always away from her poor old Jim?" "Poor old Jim?" That was what I used to call him in rr.y childish days, stroking his hand and comforting him when he was in trouble. Should I desert him now?

For answer I took fiom my finger a glittering ring which Louis had made me wear. I unclasped a costly bracelet he had given me, and drew a gold chain from my neck. I put the shining heap in his hands. "Louis," said I, "I have loved you with these, and perhaps for these but I loved Jim without them long ago, and I will love him without them the rest of my life. Forgive me, Louis I am not fit, as you see, for wealth and splendor it is natural to me to return to my kind. Come let us part in peace."

Mrs. Belden rose her eyes were like the flaming sword that drove Adam and Eve from Paradise. She would have spurned us from her presence.

But Louis laid his hand calmly upon her shoulder. "Mother," said he, "Jenny is!right"

I have often said to Jim since, as^ we two are chatting in the cabin of Jim's good ship: "Captain Jim, Louis was a gentleman, after all, though he wasn't man enough to save my life."
