2settn’s Princess.
i
Tho Martha Washington was an
hour behind time. On the pier at Old
Bay was piled a waiting cargo-coops
of restless chickens, watermelons
whose dark green rinds proclaimed
their inner iusciousness, barrels of veg
etables and a disconsolate calf In a
crate, which gave forth occasional
complaining moans, protests against
the strangeness of its position and its
separation from its kind.
Betty sympathized with the calf.
She, too,, was lonely. The only other
visible occupant of the pier was Pink
Johnson. Pink was crabbing, and Bet
ty wondered If It would Lie beneath the
dignity of her position as a traveler
if she went over and watched him un
til the boat came. On ordinary occa
sions she and Pink visited freely, but
Pink had recognized an extraordinary
event and with true negro instinct bad
kept his distance.
Before Betty decided, however, there
appeared Just above the horizon a faint
streak of smoke, then a dark body,
which, growing larger, proved to be
tho Martha Washington. Site came
along slowly, throwing up a crest of
white water In front of her and leav
ing behind a broad road of dancing,
foam tipped waves.
As she steamed up to tlie wharf
many hands were ready to receive the
lines thrown to hold her fast, for ne
groes of various ages and sizes rolled
out from behind boxes and barrels,
while from the ox carts on the shore
descended lazy drivers, who lounged
down to get the small stores which the
boat would bring.
Pink Johnson was on his feet, wind
ing up his oral) line. He threw the
chicken head which had served for
bait hack Into the water.
“Hit cert’n’y do seem a pity to was’e
good balds,” was Ids reflection, “hut
I’ze got to ho’p Mis’ Betty Ma’shall
on to flat boat, seein’ she nin’ got no
white folks dot'll do hit.”
He went over and picked up Betty's
satchel and lunchbox.
“To waw’tn fo’ de euti’l, wasn’ hit,
Mis' Betty?” he questioned.
“Oh. yes. Pink. Grandfather couldn’t
come. Some gentlemen called, and lie
had to stay to talk over business.”
Perhaps the "eun’l” might have had
the grace to blush over the excuse lie
had given had he heard the trustful
words, hut as he was at the moment
engaged in compounding mint juleps
for four “gentlemen” who had dropped
in to discuss tlie merits of the new
horse which was to he entered for the
Pimlico races it is not likely that
thoughts of lonely little Betty weighed
him down.
But Betty was not unhappy. This
was the first great event of her life.
How it had come about she hardly
knew, tiut “Cousin Mary Marshall”
was to lie married, and Aunt Leila,
Betty's dead mother's favorite sister,
had written that the little girl was to
come to the wedding.
So Dilsey, Betty’s mammy, had
[lacked Betty’s simple white dresses
and laid promised to take good care of
grandfather, and, with a kiss, Betty
had started away in 1 lie old surrey.
Upon tier arrival at the wharf she had
sent Calvin, the driver, home at once,
that lie might wait on the colonel’s
guests, lienee it happened that Pink
Johnson was the only person to bid
Miss Betty Marshal! of the “Hall”
good by when she started on her first
trip from Old Hay.
To the man and woman, passengers
from a famous watering place down
the bay. who leaned over the rail lazily
watching the loading and unloading of
freight, tlie Martha Washington ap
peared merely an old tub of a boat, hut
in Betty’s eyes it was glorified.
Betty knew every one on board, from
Captain Warfield to the stewardess,
for, while Captain Warfield was a
Maryland man and the Marshalls were
Virginians, still the captain’s mother
had married Colonel Marshall’s third
cousin, and if that does not constitute
kinship nothing does, at least in the
opinion of these clannish and warm
hearted southerners. As for the stew
ardess, she talked of Dilsey and Cal
vin in a tone which bespoke familiari
ty, while the unqualified respect with
which she asked after Colonel Marshall
showed the m;;rks of certain pickanin
days, when the colonel was “Marse
Boh.”
It was supper time before Betty fin
ished exploring the bout. Betty had a
place of honor near the captain, and
sin* answered his questions and told
him the news of her little community
In the charming fashion and uncon
sciousness of self which are the inher
itance of the well born child of the
south.
The princess watched the eager,
sweet face from the other ride of the
table. Siie was not really a princess,
but that was the name Betty bad giv
en her when first she came on deck.
She was tall and fair, and there was
something about her gown which was
different from anything Betty had
ever seen. It was straight and plain
and dark, hut there was a dash of
bright color In her silk blouse, and
Betty thought It beautiful.
The gentleman with her Betty
cajlisLibe. prigeg*. He. was very hand
some, hut Fie looked tired, at least Ids
eyes did. The princess looked tired,
too, or perhaps bored would be a better
word, but Betty had not yet added to
her vocabulary some words which the
dreary experiences of maturer life
make necessary.
When they all went upstairs and out
on deck, it was growing dark, and tho
captain'left Betty to her own devices;
so she went aft and leaned over the
rail, watching the flashes of phospho
rescence in the foaming wake of the
steamer, wliieh seemed reflections of
the stars above. Betty called them the
mermaids’ lamps. Kite was hanging
breathless over the rail, her curls.damp
with the spray and forgetful of the
chilliness of tho evening—for was not
Wavaletta walking through the halls
beneath the waves, carrying high
above her head the lamp which was to
light her lover, the Knight of the
Foamy Crest, to the cavern of that
monster, the Crab of the Deep?—-when
she felt a soft wrap folded about her
and the pressure of arms that were
withdrawn reluctantly.
“Oh, thank you!" said Betty. “But
would you mind waiting just a minute
until 1 finish wltli Wavaletta?"
Presently she turned to the princess
and told her all about It. and that she
was sure the knight would conquer
the 1 l ab of the I >er|i.
“And then what will happen?" asked
the princess.
“Then the knight will marry Wava
letta."
“And then?”
"Oh, they will live happy forever
afterward," said little Betty.
All ol which goes to show that Betty
was not a worldly wise little woman
and that she still believed in love and
many other things which it pleases the
world to call old fashioned, while many
a woman with an ache In her heart
wishes that the old fashion might be
come it new fashion and that she might
have some of the sweetness of tho ro
mance and roses of her grandmother.
Now, tile princess was wiser than lit
tle Betty, and she knew that in tho
great world there are other things than
love and that to have money is a very
great thing and to have name and fame
is greater and that to have u coronet
on one's note paper is the greatest of
all.
fSo for a long time the princess was
silent, and Betty thought she must lie
counting the stars, so steadily did she
look up into tile heavens.
But the princess was thinking of'a
girl who had believed in fairy tales—
once. And now this girl had been mar
ried three weeks, and she had married
not her prince, her knight, but a title,
an estate, a fine house and a position
in society. For the first lime she loathed
it, all. In the quiet nigh! beneath the
stars, in the fresh, sweet presence of a
little child, there-came to her a longing
for something beyond that at which
she laid grasped.
.Suddenly Belly spoke. “There comes
the prince.” Then she laughed a lit
tle. “You see, I made a fairy tale
about you too.”
The woman turned and looked at the
man coming up the steps. Yes, he was
good to look upon, and he was good,
and he loved her. She hail not thought
of it before. You see, there had been
tile title and the estate.
lie stood there for a moment with
the light from the saloon window shin
ing full upon him, then came toward
them in (he darkness and stood behind
the princess’ chair, tall, straight, indif
ferent.
Thu princess rose and stood beside
him. There was a light in her eyes,
but the moon was hidden, and h-could
not see her face. The night was not
dark to her, but glorious-glorious in
the light of anew resolve.
“This is Betty Marshall, Otto,” she
said, “and you must thank her for en
tertaining me while you were away.
She lias been telling mo a fairy tale.
Would you like to hear it?”
“If you wish.”
“Well, a prince loved a princess--
Isn’t that it, Betty?”
“Yes,” said Betty, “and the princess
loved the prince.”
The man laughed—a little bitterly.
“That was only in a fairy talc,” he
said.
Ttie princess protested. "No, no; lis
ten, Otto. The princess did not know
her heart at first, but afterward, after
ward”—
“Oh, you are telling it all wrong!”
cried a mystified little voice. But no
one listened.
"Afterward she found that love was
the only thing in the world, and so”—
Her voice faltered.
“And so?” questioned the indifferent
listener.
The princess finished breathlessly.
“They lived happy forever after.”
Her hand rested on ids now. and in
the unusual action and in the gladness
of her voice lie felt that some change
had come to her.
Then the moon came out. and he saw
her face, and slowly over Ills own
there crept a dawning comprehension,
and when little Betty went sleepily to
bed to be coddled by the stewardess
and told talcs of “When yo’ ma was a
girl” she left on deck two people whom
fate bad willed should be brought to
gether by the faith of a little child 1c
the sweetness and beauty of Ilfs.
