HARD TO HAND.
By REBECCA HARDING DAVIS.
[Copyrighted.]
PART 1.
Tho managing editor's patience was al¬
most exhausted. “Positively, Maj. Stand-
ish, I don't see that we can fitul any room
for anything of yours in The Camera this
week. Or any week,” he added wit^ an in¬
ward oath to himself, glancing impatiently
at the heap of “revises” waiting upon his
de.sk. He did not take them up, however,
but stood outwardly respectful,, for ho was a
young fellow, and Htandish, though a notori¬
ous bore, was old and white beaded.
The major patted him patronizingly on
the shoulder. “My dear fellow,”in his most
luscious, grandiloquent tone, “let me give
you a hint. I’ve been twenty years in the j
very thick and heat o£ American journalism, i
aud you are but a neophyte. You want to
make The Camera weighty? I call it dull,
sir, dull. Too much respectability kills a
paper. It needs a different class of articles
—something at onco forcible and light.
Philosophic and vif, sparkling and—well, do
you take my meaning?”
“Something like that in your hand, eh?’’
laughed Stinger.
“Precisely. You’ve hit it,’’ complacently
twitching his white whiskere.
“No. Not today, major.”
“Suppose wo try a short thing on fish
culture? I’ve got myself up on fishes
thoroughly.”
“The Times did that on Friday.”
The major stood a moment anxious and
silent. “This new asteroid, now? When I
was on The London News, Griffin used al¬
ways to say: ‘For anything taking in the
scientific line, Dan Standish is our man.’
Don’t want it, eh ! Who's doing that hang¬
ing down in Delaware for you ? I’ll make
you a two column job of it for 85, and pay
my own expenses. That road always dead
heads me.”
Stinger took upvhis proofs. “Wo sent a
stenographer reporter this morning. We
really have no use for you, Maj. Standish.”
“You never were more mistaken in your
life. Where you need me, my dear boy, is to
take charge of your reportorial corps. I'd
make those lazy fellows toe the mark.”
“Mr. Stinger!” It was the proprietor Me-
Murray’s voice, which rasped through the
room like the filing of a saw. He came to
tho door of his office. A sandy, flat built
Scotchman, to whoso making up nature had
grudged every atom of flesh save in the one
matter of a keen, red, tomahawk shaped
nose. “Have not those proofs gone up yet?
You encourage too many idlers in the office,
sir. You here again, Standish?”
‘You here again, Standish ?”
“Ab, Mr. McMurray! A de-lightfnl
morning, sir!” The major beamed on him
elTulireut. Stinger and Withrow, the news
editor, both driving their pens luriousiy a*
McMurray’* appearance, winked at each
other. The seedy major, with his grand
brawny build, his imperturbable suavity and
his dauntless lying, always cams of first best
in these encounters. McMurray, in his fault¬
less black clothes, with all his backing of
wealth and conscientious religion, seemed to
himself thin and sour, and cowed liefore
him.
“1 wonder," he said, with a sneer, “that
with your higher literary occupations, you
can spare time to besiege this office as
you do.”
“ ’Pon my soul, I wonder, too. Now
that is precisely what my publishers
say to me. ‘Write a book, Nuindish,’ they
say. ‘Take tho public between the eyes with
a knock down blow.’ Then those magazine
fellows in New York and Bostbn are crying
out every month for me to come to their
help. But I like to see the old Camera suc¬
ceed, that’s the truth.”
“The Camera is under obligation to you.”
“Not at all. I’m glad to help build it up.
I’ve a pride—Philadelphia enterprise, sir—a
pride in it,” liacking to the door. “What 1
have here, sir,” touching his forehead, “was
meant for uwaiiud, mu .to barter fav
or money. By the way, have you seen that
last little thing of mine in the Westmin¬
ster?”
“No, nor nolaxly else,” savagely.
“Ah,” you don’t take the quarterlies? I’ll
send it to you. I’ll send it to you. Good
morning, Mr. McMurray, good morning.”
“Keep that liar and braggart out of tho
office, Mr. Stinger,” said McMurray in his
coldest, civilest tones; for when other men
would have raged, his sense of duty kept
him quietest. He smoothed his face before
going back into office. Young John Proc¬
tor was there, the clergyman to whom Mc-
Murray’s church, through his influence, had
just given a call. He had just como from
tho depot after two years’ absence in the
west, and McMurray was striving to do him
honor in his hard, ungenial way. Proctor
had been a sort of ward of his, and it was
whispered about in the office that McMurray
would be glad to have him now for a son-in-
law. This church was his idol, and to see
his only child the wife of one of its ministers
was, in his opinion, to inclose her in the
pearly gates of salvation while yet alive.
“The office” felt as if the delicate, bright
haired little heiress would be thrown away
on Proctor. “These penniless preachers
know how to feather their nests.” Stinger
had sa>J but a few minutes before,
Mr. McMurray could not forgot Standish
when he went back to his office. “Lazy old
Bohemian!” he growled. “If you want the
most disreputable vices, Mr. Proctor, always
look for them in an old man who lives by his
wits.”
“Who was it?”
“Standish—the major. You know him.”
“What! There?” Proctor dashed out into
the office without his hat, and down the
stairs, shouting, “Hillo, major!” leaving
McMurray astonished behind him. He took
up his pen and began to write severely. The
carnal flesh was stronger in the young man
than he had thought. Withrow, out of cu¬
riosity. lounged down the stairs and found
John at the door looking anxiously up and
down the street.
“Ah, Sir. Withrow! do you remember me?
John Proctor,” wringing his hand in :i hearty
fashion which he used to have when a boy.
“I’m looking for a friend of mine,* Maj.
Standish. ”
“Yes? Stnj. Munchausen, we call him in
tho office.”
“He is a friend of mine,” coolly. “The
office docs not know him as well as I do,
probably.”
Withrow felt himself rebuffed, but only
for a minute. “The old follow has u cockloft
over a ware house somewhere, w here lie cooks
for himself. How lie lives, God knows. He
has nothing now but the odd jobs we give
him here in the office. He's had nothing from
us for two weeks.”

not recognize him, or should meet him with
the people, formal deference of other respectable
why, then, good-by to that old boy¬
hood, so horribly dear and disreputable!
Now the major was iu a restaurant a few
doors down the street. “Try an advertise¬
ment in The Camera, Bain,” ho said to the
bookkeeper. “I swear it-will pay you like
—like”— His talk halted; the ideas seemed
to stagger through his brain.
“I believe you've bad a drop too much,
Standish,” “No; said Sam.
