ICO Dsscs Gno Dollar HIS ATONEMENT. BY MAUV KYLE DALLAS. A storm was coming up. The "hole akv was purple gray, with Mrnngo yellow upon the ho rizon. *■ Groco Waldron, with her little boy by the hand, stood with the others watching a strange foreign vessel in the offing. Already in distress, it would go hard with her if that happened which the moaning winds seemed to promise. Although It was net dark, the lighthouse keeper was already iighting his lamps, for in one mo* menl day might bo extinguished. The purple was turning into black, the lurid yellow fading, and these men of the coast saw portents :n the clouds unreadable by lands men. “Yet that light looks hopeful,” said Groco to Ned Rushton, who stood near her, looking at her, though sho did not know it. H at kgnl is the worst of all,” ho answered. “I wonder how man y of these people will be alive when ..... l>!ea.if? ‘ --h, good Ilcaven! ’ said she. “ W0 wiil do a!1 for them,’ s - l ’d lie. “But it will bo at tho risk °*T°r llQ Ur had , 0 'I n made i r 8 a ’ little r f C pause - , before h0 uiieicd her nnd n., ho .-poke she turned and looked full in the face. They could barely see each oth* or now, and tho lighthouse lamps shor.o red and golden and the wom en were scudding homeward. “Grace,” he said once mere. “Yes,” she answered. “I may never see you again, for this will be worse work than I have ever beer, in before, and instead ol saving the live*? of those people we may lose our own, and I want to tell you that I love you before wc part, and I want to ask you if yen can love me. That knowledge would neryo me to great efforts, and help me to die bravely, if 1 must." * lie took her hand. Sho left it in his. and drew her boy cioscr to her. “Ned Rushton, any woman could love you, but how do I know I am a widow?” “God is merciful.” said ho. She gave a sigh, and let him put his aim about her waist. “The ship went down,” said he. “The four men who survived bo* licycd themselves lho only crest* ures saved, it was five years ago. Dick is dead.” “Il must be so,” she murmured— it must be sc. ’ 1 t \ n..ttUnnfM,ne.;i k V: 1 ‘®“" 1 -p' v r - answcr ’ turned her mec to I and he kissed her; then he cried “Take the bry home.

People who live along the sea coast are as poor, I fancy, as decent people ««•«.«. .bo mw of men is hard and irjing. !, J- woI > ccii-.?r.aa!ly in conflict with the dements, they break down early. Now nnd then there is a great storm that makes a dozer, w idows in an hour, and robs as many mothers of their sons. No one ever becomes rich or ever hopes to do so. but very few come to ask ing charity. There is always some one to cate 1 for tho disabled in friendly J fashion. Tho old sit at their cottage doors and make nets or carve toy boats for sale, and much kindliness prc* j vails amongst neighbors. Nowand then tnere is n black sheep amongst them, and his sin is usually a love of drink. It happened to Grace Lawton to marry one of these. When she came to the place with her step-father, who was a boat builder, he hired Dick Waldron to work for him. The young man was bright and meny, nnd bad the dark beauty of a gipsy, and Grace never guessed how much he drank or how fond he was of drinking. It was bora in him; he made no effort to resist it. Men who are wet to tho skin most of the lime, are often forced to warm themselves as thev can. *> No one thought anything cf Dick’s habit until after his marri* ago. He fell into id 1 o habits, lay about the house all day, and began very shortly to ill-use his wife. At last ho struck her a heavy blow that broke her arm. Then her slop father interfered and took her home, nnd Dick, so berod and penitent, swore to live decently evermore, nnd khclt for her forgiveness. lie even took a temperance pledge, and when her arm was well Grace went back to him. He kept tho pledge a few weeks, broke it by going on a frightful spree, and returned to his home a temporary maniac. The, neighbors only knew that at the dead of night, Grace knocked at her step-father’s door. Before dawn a little babe was born and she was at the point of death. When he recovered from a fit of dclirium-tremcns Dick went to see his wife, but was refused admission to her chamber though sho sent him her forgiveness, No one had ever heard of Dick since, and the ship he sailed upon was known to have been lost, And nil this time Ned Rushton had loved Grace. Loved her as a schoolgirl before Dick came to win the inexperienced heart that did no t yet know itself. Loved her sad ] v - while she suffered grief from VVhich i5G C0,iid 1101 StlVC 1 ' C1 h and loved her still. More fondly than before. And at ln.1 hjpo W #s his; for the fir>t time sho had boos brought to believe Dick dead and herself free; now she prayed for him, calling him her dear love, and he amidst the ftiry of the tempest had no fear. She loved him; she would he his wife; he would return to her; God was merciful; he must return now. j He said this to himself on the sea in the darkness as bo fought for human lives. He was poor, so was she. But his arms were strong and ■ his head clear. Ho bad a decent education; he would win fortune somehow for her sake, and sudden !y he drove away all thought savo of his duty as he saw a figure drop from the, side of the wrecked ves* sel into the water—it was gone in a gull u . of c darkness; , , it reappeared; i •. it \x–s swept past the boat; he caught Tt. Fiends seemed to struggle its possession. lie went overboard with it. The waves rose high, but he clutched tho drowning man still, lie had caught the boat-side in his band. Another aided him. The water struck lum mad blows in the breast. Ilia breath was gone fora moment, I but h<! had helped to thrust the man into the boat. lie had regained i it himself. Two otber half drowned | l>ooplel»y“>««. , , ,, and , now a child, v MJ a little gir!, was almost thrown in j to They iheir arms. grasped her floating hair. ; They were so eager .f for her that lhe . . . harcay . r.gnted . , the boat „ ' - as the groaning of the parting warned them to beware. 1 Then down in a gulf, aloft on a waterv moaataia, I steering \ as best they % could for tho„ shoi-e, where lights were sho\vn fo guide them. Safe at last in the har [ boPs quieter water, their four res* cued people nl.ee. Ned held the man's hca'd i kit koce, pityingly putting back the wet hair. He helped him upon the wet sands. Soon he was able to stand ! with support. “1 thought it was all over,*’ he said, as if talking to himself; “but now I shall see her again, aflor all. My wife! my wife!" “She was not on the vessel,” said Ned i “No, . T said tho “I stranger, was coming home to her —I am, thanks to you. Give mo your name—you, who saved my life. I'll reward wcli.” “I’m a sailor. I’vo only done my duly," said Ned. lie helped him on toward the op en door of tho church, into which tho rescued were being horno, be* cause it stood so near the shore. A* mongst tho women who were min istering to the poor creatures he saw Grace, busy, helpful, but with trouble in her eyes, Ho could not kolp speaking to her. “Grace,” lib called. Sho turnod — a stnilo swept over her face. “Hero is another patient for you. Take care of him for his wife's sake and mino. Sho had como into the darkness to meet him. Tho half-drowned man staggered and clung to the railing of the porch, resting his head on his arm. “For his wife’s sake and yours?” she repeated. “Oh, take care of yourself, my love, for mine.” They kissed each other. She took an arm of tho rescued stranger, who seemed fainting, and led him in to warmth and light, and Ned Rush* ton went forth to his task of saving lives. Afterward they often spoke of his bravery, of h:s hair-breadth escapes—many owed their lives to him that awful night. In tho dawn a sad, gra}^ sea swept a sad, gray shore. Fragments of wood, casks, and other things float ed upon the waves, and near ccr* tain great rocks appeared the up* per portion of tho sunken vessel’s masts. The old seaside church was a hospital. Some of those saved rejoiced that they j r et lived. Oth ers, who had lost dear ones, be wailed them pitcour. ly. One man thought cf nothing but tho possessions he had had on board. A woman sobbed for her diamonds, while next to her a young creature wrung her hands and moaned: “My little baby—oh, my little baby!” Ned Rushton looked about him. le saw the figure of'Grace sealed in an old pew beside a figure ex* tended upon the cushions. She was feeding it with some* thing in a bowl, and she did not look up. Ho made his way to her and leaned over the high pew-back and smiled at her. She did not smile iu return. Her face was dead ly pale—her eyes sunken. “You arc unharmed?" she said. “Thank God for that. Yo saved my son's father last night. This is Dick. I think you did not recog* nizo him.” The man opened hi3 eyes. Older darker, wearing a black beard, Still Ned Rushton knew the face at once. It was Dick Waldron, and none other, for whose life ho had fought with tho sea at tho risk of his own. lie stared at him, looking at Grace no more, and rushed away oat . at . ii the elmron t » door, i away on< * of tho sight of man to a lonely spot tho .rocks, where moaned over and over again: “I saved him—I; but for me be would now be dead. I saved him —I—I!” All day the church was full: some of the rescued were able to walk a* i boat and t.i.ft take mnnno means in to nntifu notify ik... the, friends; one dieo; others, crushed by wot, seemed to have relinquish ed effort. Grace brought c her bowto see ' his fothor, and , »o one *a<* vr -'cd j Rashs u ton any where. No one could whither he had vanished. At ten of the clock that night, f, *, be arose trembling from a* midst the roexs, . and I went . , and, with out tasting supper, soaght bis bed. The fisherman’s wife with whom he lodged thought nothing of Ibis; . but she ca.tcd to him up the , stairs, . as he closed the door: “There's something here for you; a boy left it.” Sho gave him a small parocl and he carried it into his room. But he did not Ivok at it, be threw li»m* i self upon the bed in the darkness. ( In the night he awoke suffering horribly, fever followed, then do* Jiriuin. lie was ill for many days. a victim to his deeds of daring poo pic thought; exertion but it that was bad not brought expos* tiro or him to this pass, it was tho thought that he had lost Grace—hopelessly lost her sinco Dick had returned and over and over again in his do* lirium he repeated: “And I saved him.” But Ned was young and he lived; bs grow strong; he oven began to value iifo again; ho loft his bed and weul down stairs; the woman of the house was delighted. She set a chair for him and stood before him toiling him how everybody had been interested in his welfare, and “inquired.” “And tho parcel—you noyor op* cncd tho pared. It might amuse you now,” said she. She went to get it, brought it back, and laid it upon his knee. And in a little while, when sho was gone about her work, he untied the cord that held tho roll of brown paper, and saw within a waterproof money-belt and a folded paper. 1 v p en : ng the paper, ho read this: “I told you I would reward j*ou tor saving my life. I keep my promiso. I hcaid ami saw all that night. You love Grace, and sho loves you; my return is a grief to both. “I am a bettor man than I was, and I have made money. Min this belt is my will. Give it to Grace. As for me, I am going bock to the sea from which you snatched me. “I leave her rich; I pray her to be happy with tho man sho loves. I made her vory miserable when sho was mine; perhaps I atone by this act of mine. To die is no sorrow to me, believing this. I shall drown myself in sight of others, that there may be no doubt in Grace’s mind that she is free. “Adieu! God bless you.” And the man had kept iris word. In full sight of men upon tho rocks, of the lighthouso keeper, of women picking drift-wood upon tho shore, ho had entered tho water gnyly, swimming, as they fancied, for mero sport, and waved his hand to them, as in adieu, as lie went down.
