Unconsciously she drew toward hiiu. -j "Lightning seqtns terrible," he .said ( evenly, "but as a matter of fact there ( Is nlways more danger on the cars. ? Statistics prove?" "What's that?" cried the woman, apprehensively. "I heard a voice." The mayor peered out. "The sheriff!" he muttered under his breath. Three men were running toward F Ihom on the beach, their hcuds % down, ducking the rain. Scrambling from under v.he boat, Mayor Hedight set off at top speed up the beach, pausing at the start long enough to whisper. /I'll be back. Wait." The shcrifT and his two deputies, weathering the gale with lowered eyes, had not seen the mayor's flight. In fart, so blinded were their eyes that they ran almost into the girl and :he boat beforo they could stop. ."Hello!" bawled tho sheriff. "You're from Squirrel Inn, ain't ye? Where's yer beau?" bluntly. "We're lookin' fer him.'? Miss Crooks drew her ifeet back under her skirt and replied coldly: One of the best ways to find a man," witherlrgly, "Is to go where he is." The sheriffs chest shot out immediately. "Now, look-a-here, young lady, lone of ypur smartness or we'll take you along fer accessory before the act. Understand?" blustering. "You are wasting your time trying to bully me," replied the girl, without a tremor in her voice. "I am penectiy harmless and I 1 ave told ( ifOi nil 1 bn/MU Tho -non hno iv/iftn 111\ I ?UU <111 * nwwn. I ire ?i I el 11 nan ^Ui|v uy the beach." "Aw. come on. Sid," broke in a Blender young fellow, turning his back to the rain. "What the use of'argdln' with th' gal? She ain't th" one we had yisterday." Without a word "the Bhcriff veered around the boat and, following the fast fading trail, set out in haste after Bodlght. Fifteen minutes later the mayor came up from the opposite j direction. "I am sorry, M'sh Brooks," he said, sorrowfully, "but I'm afrnid you'll get wet after all. We've got to get away from here! 1 circled atouud and found tho boat these fellows left. I set it adrift with a gale blowing it across the lake, but they are not far behind. We must get under way as soon as possible." , . "1 don't mind a soaking." replied the young woman, bravely. "It's the ?the lightning that frightens ind? i and that's about oult." The man rlghte he dory hurriedly, piled in their belt agings and set the I boat from tho s..ore with a sturdy 1 shove. A half mile below, on the beach, he caught sight of three men ! running towatd them?and far away on the wave-whipped lake, a tiny dot or Drown couia u? oven nsung nna rail-, log as it scudded before the wind. It wus the sheriffs row boat. "Sleeping out of doors." said the mayor, rmillng at the woman opposite, is very beneficial to the lungB?especially on an island." CHAPTER VIII. When the waves are running freely ft Is a stiff pull from Mine Host's select little hotel in the Wisconsin woods to Glen Island, but on a perfect moonlight night, with Just breeze sufficient to ripple the fair hair of a pretty girl opposite, the man at the oars seldom finds the task arduous. Nor did Mayor Bedlght complain. The running ripple slapped the prow f the boat rhythmically and from the shadows alopg the approaching shore >f the Island the wslrd hoot of an owl \ . lb* St' - I ?.? reclaimed thd witchery of the nlghL With a scarcely perceptible tilt, he boat grounded on the shelving andy shore. ? Bedlght sprang out nd pulled the craft further upon Its ushloned anchor* ? The girl sat i the boat, intt . ' watching the layor. That t^entlttnan took from he locker a basket well laden. Quicky gathering some dry wood, he tacked it over a bunch of tinderike weeds, touched a match to. the lie. set the basket at a safe distance nd pulling a revolver from his pocket, ired in the general dlrectlou of the noon. Having maneuvered thus peculiarly." ie hastened back to the boat, shoved >ff and mwpH f mm tHo ahrvro O Him. [red yards. Resting on his oars, be let? he boat toss Idly upon the lake. Flv^, en minutes passed. The dry wood iurned brightly, making a beacon of Ight, into the circle of which there ame, at last, three shadows, followed y unintelligible conversation. "They've found It," said the mayor, ticking up his oars and turning the ioat townrd the hotel. It was midnight when the sides of he craft rubbed Its sister boats at line HoBt's dock. The mayor and he girl crept softly up the winding mthway toward the hotel. Suddenly, a the moonlight ahead, the' form of woman appeared advancing to meet hem. The mayor and the girl saw er simultaneously. He stopped intantly with a restraining hand upon he girl's arm. "Quick!" ho commanded, springing a front of his companion and turning er about face. "Walk rapidly down lie path to the boathouse." She complied Instantly. Ovdr his shoulder the mayor saw he woman hesitate, then follow deermlpedly through the shimmering nfconlight. "Go into the boathouse," directed Vedight hurriedly. "Walt until I on;hge' bet- 1t? conversation. Then open he rear door and run for the hotel, tnd be quiet!" .'"I uhderstand," whispered the girl, xcltedly. Slipping through the door, she losed it softly. Pulling a cigar from lis pocket, the mayor scra'ched a natch on tho sole of his shoe and liew- a puff of smoke at the same tor-1 ;et which earlier in the evening he lad failed to hit with his leaden misiile. The woman rounded the corner and aine directly toward him. "1 beg your pardon, Mr. Redlght," aid "Judge" Vlnitig in a cold, formal roice, "for following you, but as chaprone of tho young ladies at the hote! feel that it was my ^duty to do so. The mayor bowed. "Duty to the one performing It," he nterrupted gallantly, "is oftentimes rksome, but begrudglngly done froluently conveys pleasure to unother. do not desire to appear seltish in our eyes, but I And your duty pleases ne greatly," bowing again. "Now, the noonlight?" Tho "Judge" made a deprecating ;esture. "Do not attempt to evade," she varned. "I am deeply In earnest. .Vhere Is the?the?" She seemed at i loss to proceed. Finally she threw tlplomacy to the winds. "Who was he girl with you?alone?at this hour >f the night? I have a right to know ind I?had thought you a gentleman, hough I should have known that no ;entleman would have?have?" she lnishcd lamely. "Kissed you?" questioned the may)r, the frivolity scarcely gone from lis voice. "Certainly!" she flashed. Bedlght puffed thoughtfully at his ;igar, the fragrant pungency of the tmm Fired in the General Direction of th> Moon. tobacco wafting to Jacklo as sh stood In the moonbeam's path, th light giving an ethereal beauty to he trim, erect tlgrure. "It was wrong. I admit," he aai Impulsively, "I am willing to adml tliat?but I refuse to believe that n gentleman could be other than hoi ored by such a privilege. As one wh has tried to be such. I would be wll ing to do It again If?" "Mr. Bedlght"?the voice was bee now?and the mayor hesitated. "I dl not come here to bandy words, never shall cease regretting that am In a sense guilty of a mtsdemeai or which makes it Impossible for m to condemn you as I should?but warn you not to presume to Justll further presumption." Miss Vlning paused effectively. "But you have not answered m * - . v ; S* . \ ' C- J??, ? ,i L ^ % \ Y' question, Mr. Benight," she continued "Who was the girl that came down the path with, you ?"* - - ; The man drew cloeet; to her.

You may scorn ine and it' lied within your power to discipline me?or defeat me? but I shall not try to obliterate the tlirill of that brief moment!" Jackie Vining did not meet his eyes. In her heart she felt a strange, new feeling of elation, a softening of re senimeni, nut women were theorems lpng before mathematicians struggled with right-angle triangles and hypotenuses. and all their non-understandable descendants, beautiful and sweet and charming as they are, still per- | sist In being man's hardest problem. "Your frankness In some things." she said without emotion, "is as commendable as your lack of It In others. Must 1. repeat rriy question still another time? Who Is the girl?" The mayor spoke firmly and with doclsion. "As a man who Is at least' that much of a gentleman, I refuse to answer. The girl has done no wrong. She?" "Mr. Itedlght, on Tuesday night I saw one of my crowd of young ludies leave the arbor after a clandestine night meeting with you. Tonight I i chance to blunder upon you at midnight, again In the company of a young woman. There are no others here, aside from our party. I feel a responsibility and 1 must Insist on your answering." i The mayor shrugged his shoulders, i "Who was she?" asked the "Judge" for the fourth time. "Why don't you ask her yourself?" said the mayor. "Where Is she?" "The last I saw of her she went through that door," ho replied, doggedly. Ml8b Vinlng stepped toward the door and opened it. In the farther I end of the boathouso a second door stood open and through It the moonlight streamed. "I see I have been outwitted," angrily. "May I walk to the hotel with you?" asked the mayor humbly. "I prefer to go alone," she replied in a tone of finality, starting up the path. "Miss Vinlng!" It was the mayor calling from the dock. . She stopped. "What is it, Mr. Redlght?" impatiently. "You remember saying the girl with me must be one of your party because there were no other young ladles about ?" "Yes," crisply. The mayor's voice had something of the old ring in it as he asked: d "Did you think of the colored cook?" But the "Judge," going up the ^jath e briskly, did not deign to reply. e (TO HE CONTINUED.) r Figa and Raisins, d Consul Horton at Smyrna notes that it the Reform, a Smyrna newspaper, eso tlmates the ralHln crop for this year ?- at about 700,000 quintals (87.164,000 0 pounds) and that of fl?r? about 75,000 1- camel loads (36,082,500 pounds).
