They woro on thoir way np tho Mis sissippi rlvor-tho mother, Fannio and tho twins. 1 throw in tho younger chil dren in a bunch, ns it woro, becnueo it takes too long J say Suo nud Lou. Thoy woro spoken of OB tho twins by ovory one, and every ono know thom. Thoir personality Vvas particularly fa? miliar to Fannie's would ho Bailors, for they woro always upon tho spot just at. a moment otherwise opportune for mat rimonial proposals. Fannio was not a marrying girl, und sho used to soy that no ono but horsolf realized how much in tho way of rolief sho owed to those blessed twins. Tho suitors also woro wont to bless tho twins, but in a Konto w'uit different spirit. Ono of theso suit ors was on tho boat that vory day, and ho had Fannio "cribbed and confinad," as it woro, in ono corner of a deserted quarter of tho dock. Tho twins woro out of rango for onco, and ho thought ho was making good hondwoy. Hut real ly in her hoart Fannie was despising him for a fop. His immaculate olothoa carno first, fiho thought; hiB viands next, probably, and, lastly, with what littlo was loft of him, Iiis character. That particular day ho walked up his nveuuo of approach undisturbed by bark of dog or remark of twin. Ho was nenror tho doleotablo mountains than ovor boforo, ho realized, and his hoart thumpod madly against tho irreproach able waistcoat OB ho opened his mouth to ask tho dooisivo question. Just at thnt moment n shrill scream pierced tho sultry July air. Then n hur rying and Bonrrying of feet was hoard. Instantly n ray of knowlcdgo Unshod its way into Fannie's brain. "Ono of tho twins is overboard I" sho said to hor solf ns sho spod down tho near stairs arid along tho lower deck. Just OB BIIO reached tho how of tho boat flho saw a littlo skirt drawn in bj* tho suction of tho water botwoen tho bargo (on which most of tho excursion ists-woro embarked) and tho boat that drow it. Another moment and tho ?amo littlo ?kirt, and a child's faco, half bid don in Iior long, wot hair, was horno by tho swift waiora out and down tho river. Lou had fallen ovorboard. Thoro wns ohaos for a timo. Every body was running to soo. Somo ono clung to tho mother, who wanted to leap after her child. Littlo Suo was wailing nod Fannio wringing hor hands oud thinking how this would never havo happoned had sho not beer, ongttgud by that hateful dude. From tho pilothouso two mon leaned and watched tho child-tho pilot and a sort of lon;; logged "handy Andy, known on board as Spider. "Why don't you savo hor, Spidor?" said tho pilo*- "Jump in, mail. What's tho uso of your swimming prizes if you can't Rave a kid now and then?" It hadn't occurred to Spider hoforo, but at tho word of command ho leaped from tho pilothouso down into tho wa ter und struck out after tho dark spot that was quito distant now. "Ho's too late. Ho can't catch hor," said a passengor. "Oh, got outl" said tho captain. "That cuss could overtake tho boat that started yesterday and boat her to Now Orleans." Tho man so disrespectfully allutlod to wns well ulong on Iiis way when tho orowdof passengers, who wove straining their oyes down tho rivor, saw tho dark somotbing on tho surfaco of tho water sink. Tho mother uttered a cry and waa boroo half fainting into tho nearest cabin. Fannie's faco was white and strained, but sho said not a word. Tho dudo stood near herns silont and almost ns wiitin as sho. Indeed there was no noiso on hoard just then savo tho sound of littlo Sue's sobs. Tho speck--it had bocomo a speck roso again, but Spider was still nt a distance. Ile was nearer now, but it had sunk onco moro. Again it roso -if only ho could got thoro in timo I Hut what soemed to tho watchers a waste of waters soparatcd him from that littlo floating frock. Tho captain had his floldglasfl out now, and ho silently passed it around. Spider was nearing tho child, but beforo ho could reach iier she sunk for tho last timo. Down ho went, and J. think that hardly a breath was drawn until ho roso-without her I * "O God I" wailed Fannio. Tho dudo put his arm around her or sho would havo fallon. "Don't leavo hor I" shouted tho cap tain through his speaking tromp? t. "Don't turn back I Get her I (Jet heil" Hut Spider was swimming for tho nearest point on shorn. With ono accord tho passengers-all but tho few who staid with tho mothor --rushed from tho boat, whioh was moored just thoro. Down tho bank of the river thoy ran till they stood oppo site tho struggling swimmer. Ho was having a hard light to got aflhoro. Evi dently ho was badly spent. They could nudorstaud then why ho gave up his search Bo waa obliged to gc? to shore or to abandon hiumol f os well os tho child. The passengers had folt angry with bira-Owp?vli?ly those who had dono least-for terning buok a I ono, but when they realized h's ?-ondltion they boooiuo anxious lost the swift ourrout should cliiim him too. Slowly ho workod his woy along un til he noorod tho ehoro ; thou a Btroug baud laid hold of him, for tho dudo had Waded ont up to his vory nook and waa bringing tho oxhnuatod swimmor in. Two or thrco othor mon inid hold wbon ho got to shore rutd holpod drag him out of tho water. Ho was poworloss to help himself. .'Wh*?t a pity ho had to turn baokl" said ono. ..Ho couldn't help it," said anothor. "Tho poor chap's half doad himsolf." "Groat hcavonsl" shouted*. ?. stout mau. "Ho's got horl" , . '-? . Suro ouough, thoro, hold botwoon hid knoos, with a donthliko grip, was n lit tlc ii,,...o oluoudod in woe oalioo aud long wot hair. You'd have thought tho pooplo had gono mad if you had hoard thom. Tho dudo waa working over Spidor oud ohooring and yolliug ns bo workod; Kunnin was on hor knoos, and tim twin ran haok and forth, from Spidor to tho othor twin, who was standing on hor hoad, while they slapped and pumped her without moroy. Thoro was nothiug equal 'to tho on duriug quality of thoao twins. You couldn't kill ono of thom. That day, oven boforo Spidor carno to himsolf, Lou was on hor foot again, walking haok to tho boat, escorted by an immense body guard of rejoicing people. Tito next tiling on tho progrommo was to rownrd Spidor. As ho wouldn't touoh n cont of money that waa n diftl oult mattor. Aftor some inquiry Mrs. Trencher loamed that although of good family and well cduontod Spidor waa by mituro and habit a wanderer. She and hor family woro about to go out to Colo rado for a trip, and in Hou of anything bettor offered tho man tho ohauco of go ing with thom. Somowhnt to hor Bur priso ira joyfully nocoptcd, nnd oro long thoy and ho woi*o nuder way. On thoir roturn from tho mountains bo potitiouod to como with thom, promising to cook or do anything olso that was usefet, and all for a small wago if only thoy would koop him with thom. "Why, Spidor," said Mrs. Tronohor, "n young man like you, bora and edu cated for Bomething bottor, ought not to All snob n position. " v "If 1 didn't, I'd bo in n worso ono. It's in mo to go down, not \ip. I've led a straighter lifi with you folks than I ever know bofe ro. " Tho upshot c<" it all was that for ton years Spidor was ono of tho family-nu invaluablo member, too-cook, house keeper, laundress, catoror, Boorotary, nurse-ovory thing. Ho had plenty to do just now, for a family wedding was on foot. Suo waa still Bornggy, but Lou had blossomed into a lovely, rounded out, softly tinted girl, and Homo ono lind disooverod thiB, aa mon will, and rando lovo to hor, and abo had rando lovo back. Thoy woro to bo married tonight, and Spider \vi\8 get ting ready for it all. Faun io wno help ing on ovory sido. Sho waa Mrs. Dudo now nnd waa remarkably fastidious about her dress, aa bocamo ono of that name. Tho wedding was a simplo homo af fair. Tho family wanted Spidor to como in and sit with thom, but bo refused. Ho neted strangely that day anyhow, but no doubt ho waa tired. It was all ovor-that is, tho knot was tied, and tho fresh faced girl was look ing np into tho eyea of her lrasband with tho lovelight which links this world to heaven. All wore chatting and laughing and congratulating tho young couple-all but a man who atood in tho Bhndow of tho doorway, looking from his grimy banda to tho smooth, fair ox toriov of tho happy lovor. Nobody noticed him-thoro waa too much going on-and ho stood there, tho tonia chasing oaoh othor down bis fnco and every now and then a groat sob convulsing his strong chest.
