The steam of savory dishes be¬ low was too much for him. A collapsed stomach in a powerful frame like his is a deadly drag upon a man’s pluck. He looked at Sam. The fellow would give him his din¬ ner it he asked it, he knew. He gathered himself up with an effort, j “I’d steal, but I can’t beg,’’ he said, silently, j He nodded affably to Sam, and filliped to the parrot as he went out. His high featured, usually florid face, had turned cold and’ blue under the mustache and whiskers, but he carried himself jauntily. | John Proctor saw him as soon os he stepped j on the street. There was the Identical broad- ■ ojoth suit cut twenty years ago, and the vast 1 expanse of shirt bosom, tf&jM in the Dlaits, but immaculately white. The major was a property of the town, well known as the city clock. With his bushy white mane, his im¬ posing shoulders, his lofty bow, he radiated and filled the pavement from wall to curb. Proctor thought the old- man would be glad to see him, but he certainly had not expected the strange effect which the sight of him pro¬ duced. Standish stopped as though he had been struck a blow, holding him off at arm’s length. His pomposity seemed to suddenly drop from him. “Why, Jack! Jack!” he stammered, “I did not look to see you. I beg your pardon, Mr. Proctor. I forget”— drawing back, yet still holding the young man’s coat sleeve with what would have been very like a caress iu a woman. “Forgot* You forget old friends, J think.” “Prince Hal has changed his state,” said tho major, smiling, with an effort to be him¬ self. “It is time he shook off old Falstaff. How ill white halls become a fool and jester! So surfeit swelled, so old and so profane!' touching hfs big breast with a bitter laugh. “Ydu did not use to‘affect the cynic.” “No. It is the sight of you that reminds me of what I had better forget.” Proctor was ashamed, as one man always is of emotion in another. “You had always an unreasonable liking for me, vicious young dog that I was!” he said, lightly. “You’re at the old place, I suppose* 1 11 come round at dusk. We’ll broil a steak together, hey, major? My hand has not lost its cunning.” The old man looked down at him steadily with an inexplicable brightness in liis keen eyes. “I did not think you would g» so far as that, my boy,” he said quietly. Mr. McMurray’s carnage drew up at the door at that moment. It was plain but rich, the horses thoroughbred. An innocent look¬ ing, delicate little blonde, dressed with Quaker like plainness, looked out and blushed crimson at. the sight of John. At that the blood mounted also into the fellow’s tell tale face, and he wont down to the carriage, loan¬ ing on the door to speak to her. “A handsome pair, major,” whispered Withrow, who was still loitering near. Standish nodded. “She looks like a good religious woman. McMurray girls* would raise his daughter cleaner than other “She’s worth a cool half million; that’s tho way in which I'd think you would look at her.” “So I do, Mr. Withrow. Proctor is lucky, very lucky. Talents nnd education and re¬ ligion, and now a good wife with money. The boy could not ask for more.” There was something in the old man’s un¬ usual quiet, and the look which he fastened on Proctor, that roused 'Withrow’s curiosity. “There used to bo some connection be¬ tween you aud the young man, wasn’t there! lie was under your guasdianshir.

MARTHA E. STEEN. ROUCLERE (THE FANTASIE) BRILLAHT! BAFFLING!! when ha was a boy, * think t ve beam: “Not at all, sir,” eagerly, “not at all. It was a mere business transaction. I held cer¬ tain moneys for the tod’s use from his father, and paid his bills; that was all I placed him under Mr. McMurray’s care when he was entered here first at school. McMurray has the entrance to the best society, and is religious; those were the two things 1 looked at. Why, the boy’s blood is of the best. His father was one of the old blue bloods of Vir¬ ginia- He would never have trusted his son to the guardianship of an old scallawag like Dan Standish.” The major was himself again, his rolling voice and theatrical gest¬ ures keeping time and apparently enjoying each other thoroughly. “Oh, that's it? You were not one of the blue bloods then?” ,f My father was a butcher, sir. I’ve lived by my wits; and an infernally poor capital they are for any man. I'll say that. I’vo dined with dukes and ragpickers Inlny day, Mr. Withrow. But the smell of the slaughter house followed me. A man is nothing with¬ out family hero in PhitodeljAia.” And again his eyes rested on Proetor, with the uuxious thoughtfulness so strangely at variance with hi-i ordinary stagey manner, Withrow clapped his hand to one j«xiket, then to the other. “By the way! Where tho deuce— Oh, here it is. Come this way, major,” drawing him into the doorway, and opening a New York Blandish.’ paper. “Here iu the Personals. 'Richard Yon see? No relation of yours, eh?’ The major had t he .paper up before his face. He tbefirwit 1 il(9*Pracked eyeglasses and adjusted them on his nose; took them down and wiped them leisurely; read the card once, a second time. “No; I don’t know tho man.” “From Virginia, you see,” said Withrow, putting the (viper in his pocket again;'“and came here about the same time you say yon did. But your name’s Dan. Certainly. It looks like a trick of the police to get hold of a criminal to mo.” “So it does to me.” “Going, eh? Proctor’s busy,” with a sig¬ nificant wink. “Ho has no need of\)ld fel¬ lows like us, now,” “No.” The major stood a moment watch¬ ing John’s eager gestures, and the bright, blushing face bent over him. “No; he has no more need of me,” he said quietly, and turned away with a bow as he passed th« carriage, though neither of them saw him. Mr. McMurray, with the young clergyman again in his office, safely trapped, could not let him go without a word or two of rebuke, “Should you accept it” (they were talking of the call), “you must be careful, my dear sir, to avoid oven tbo appearance of evil. You are young and impulsive, fond of your friends. The dignity of your position would render improper many associates whom you knew as a boy, unless, indeed, you approach them officially, administering the Word a* the hope of salvation. This Maj. Standish now, for example”- “I am very uncertain about accepting this church at all,” broke out Jack. “There is a place in the west that suits my ways better. But I could not marry on their salary. ItV tho merest pit tance. I could barely live on it.” Mr. McMurray paused, and answered with deliberation: “In the matter of marriage, must you consult that point of salary at all, Mr. Proctor? Tho wife you may select may —will, iu ull probability—be independent. A woman ought to feel herself honored in being called to share tho spiritual work of a Christian minister, and should rejoice if she can bear her part in his temporal burdens.” “I’ll never be supported by a rich wife,” said John, bluntly. “I’ll be frank with you, Mr. McMurray. There is a woman whom I have loved long and faithfully. I will marry her, if 1 can. If she has money, well and good; but I must be the provider in my own household.” “It is a natural feeling, nnd a manly one,” su'd Y •'.' vTTiv .-iot ill uleasod. '*V*e differ, too, In this matter at associ¬ ate**.” obstinately maimed Jack. “I have nc-ver felt that my ‘doth,’ as the vulgar phrase ha* it, placed me one whit apart from other men. When l measure myself with a prince or ruffian in the dock by his courage or g-Asi sense or faithfulness to his friend, I touch a brotherhood between us stronger than any church bond. We get our naked Sands together. You understand? And oftener then it is be who gives' the Word to me than I to him,” he added, -•.der his breath. . Mr. McMurray checked tV ...gry rebuke ou his lips. All young men were flighty now¬ adays, and given to this visionary talk. Be remembered John Proctor’s brilliant repute Mon in the church, the crowd* that p ress ed to bear him as he went from city . city. If Oats were Ms wife, no woman iu Unchurch would hold higher rank. “I cau.iot under¬ stand,” he said, gently, “what bearing this has on your intimacy with Maj. Btandish, particularly”—raising his voice when Proc¬ tor would have spoken—“when I have every reason to believe the police are ou his track as a long escaped criminal.” , L - John’s face burned as though be bisnaelf had tieen accused. “What proof have you of this?” tie said, rising. “There is a New York detective here to Identify him now,” in a mysterious whisper. “I could learn no more from him than that Standish is living under an assumed name. But I fear the worst, Mr. Proctor, the very worst.” », .. ... “Bah!” muttered John to himself. “Where Is this fellow? I’ll go to him at once,” put¬ ting on his cap. McMurray rose and put out his hand. It was high time that he became the mouth¬ piece of the church aud Clara. “Mr. Proc¬ tor, I beg that you will not espouse this dis¬ reputable old man’s cause so vehemently. His name is a public by-word of infamy among newspaper tuen. A vaporing boaster •fid liar.’” “Newspaper men know but one side of .the follow,” retorted John, hotly. “I could tell you tales of him, of his unselfishness ami his noble charity, that would put the lives of ho many of our professors to shame.
