FRIDAY, SEPT. 29 At the close of last year the stock of Toronto Railway, ai the then prevailing price, was worth about $9,600,000. One night this July it was worth $12,000,000. Next morning it was worth about $14,500,000. Nothing had happened in the meanwhile. The earnings of the company were excellent, as they could hardly help being in a city which has so far outgrown its car service that over-crowding is the regular thing. But the earnings were not astonishingly better than they were in December. The people of Toronto hate the Street Railway with the same deep and determined hatred. The expiratior of the franchise is set for the same fateful day; but the day itself is six months nearer. The prospect of a satisfactory renewal is just as remot. What then was it all about? It was all about this. A group of very astute, energetic, and able stock manipulators had noticed that the price of Toronto Rails was low in comparison with the rate of earnings and the dividend paid. Not low in comparison with the value of the enterprise, be it remem- mered, for there is no guarantee that when the franchise runs out in ten years the property can be made to realize arything like its present value, and there is every reason of morality and decercy why it should not. But the public when properly handled can always be induced to forget what is going to happen in ten years—whoever expects to hold a stock for ten years anyhow?—and to value a stock solely by the percentage of return in the next few years. The earnings of Toronto Railway were enormous; they were enough to pay a very comfortable dividend and put aside a sinking fund that would have replaced the value of the franchise when the franchise ran out. But that would have been of no interest to a stock manipulator. So instead of increasing sinking fund and depreciation charges, the divi- dend was raised, and instead of securing ordinary-priced capital for the extensions that are absolutely imperative, the money is to be provided by the present stock holders, who are to get eight per ceni return for it. In addition to an increased dividend and the chance to get eight per cent on a new investment, the fortunate holders are to receive new stock to the extent of one-eighth of their present holding absolutely free gratis, and for nothing, thus giving. them a personal claim to.another one-eighth increase in their dividend earnings. The company will get two million dollazs in new cash; it will undertake to pay out to its share holders $320,000 in new dividends per annum. That is all right at the present time; the company can pay it and jet of himself which told against him with the woman he loved; just the | helplessness and dependence of An- | struther which appealed to Kitty. i It almost seemed as if the quist of the sick room had leaked ti: vough the log walls, and pervaded not only the | ‘| whole ranch, but nature itself. Even | the storm had quieted down after that one wild 1% ght. As the house lay somewhat lower | than the surrounding country, it was | wrapped in a veil of mist, through and above which the rising fells showed, patched with thin snow, which emphasized the great distances, | and the beggarliness of the November | foothills. | It was the time of the year in which, to a girl like Kitty, the contrast be- tween the sheltered life of the Old Country and the homelessness of the | new would be most apparent, and as/| she dwelt. upon this, looking hour after | hour into the gloom outside, the only | relief to her thoughts was the neces- sity for waiting upon the man who had become to her typical of England. To her, in the midst of her reverie, came Phon, the Chinese cook. “Missy Rolt here?” “No; isn't she with the Boss?” “No can find her. Ole Mary come, want some clothes. Heap cold,’ and the Chinaman gave a sympathetic shiver. “You go find Missy Rolt; me plenty busy cook him grub.’ Kitty looked at Anstruther, Appar- ently he was asleep, so humoring the cook, she went down to the library, | where Rolt and his wife were sitting. | “Poor old soul; what a day for her to come,” was Mary Rolt's greeting of the message. “Just the sort of day to make one want more clothes, dear. Have you anything to give her?” asked Rolt. | “I can find something, I expect. I am rather glad that she has come, aren't you, Dick? It looks as if the trouble with her people is blowing over.” “Perhaps; but the fact that an In- dian begs of you means nothing. You know what cultus potlatch means.” | “A free gift, that is a fool's bargain. I know, but I think poor old Mar; is grateful and really likes me.” Her husband smiled. de was not quite certain which would be the greater miracle, that anyone should not like Mary Rolt, or that an Indian should be grateful. He had known In- dians for a lifetime. i After his wife had left the room on/ her mission of charity, taking Kitty | with her to “rummage” in the old clothes box, the Boss sat for some time, smoking and thinking, and his thoughts were not cheerful ones. A good many of his castles in the air had fallen since Anstruther’s ar- rival, and without Jim's help he did not feel as sanguine of ultimate suc- cess on the Risky as he had done. A sharp cry called him back from the future to the present. “What is it,” he called, opening his door. } “I dont know, decr, answered his wife from the lumber room. “It murt have been Mr. Anstruther who called. “Where is Kitiy?” “Here with me, looking out some- thing for old Mary. “She ought not to--” pay it easily. It is at the fat end of its franchise. It is serving a city of nearly half a million people with the appliances suited to two hundred | thousand, and the half-million have tu ride and ay fares no matter | what the accommodation may be. But in ten years there will be | no franchise, and the Toronto people will want to start fresh. And} then either the people of Toronto or the share holders of the Toronto | railway will be ‘‘out’’ the expenses of the melon-cutting. | This Toronto episode affords one more proof that in the growing | cities of a new country like Canada the fixed-franchise system is a | grotesque injustice. The franchised corporations are administered | uniformly upon the theory that when the franchise expires the people | who granted it can be made either to renew it or to buy it back at its | full earning value; so that the more a corporation is enabled to make | out of the gift temporarily bestewed on it by the public, the more | it is enabled to demand of the public for the surrender of that gift.

The old castle will be pulled down and re-erected on Long Island. Tattershal!l castle has been prominently brought to public notice because of the at- tempts which have been made to save the famous mantlepieces con- tained in it from being taken out of the country. Tattershall castle was erected by Lord Cromwell, lord treasurer to King Henry VI., about the years 1433-1443, and has been described as probably the finest specimen o medieval! brickwork in the United Kingdom.

But at this point he and his wife reached the sick room together, where Kitty was already bending over An- struther. “He has fainted again,” she said, chafing his hands helplessly, but even ' as she spoke consciousness returned to him. “I beg your pardon,” very faintly. “I give you all so much trouble, but when I tried to call you, I got another nasty one, and went off, I suppose, as usual. It seems to me I ean’t do anything without fainting,” and he closed his eyes wearily, almost as if he were going to illustrate his he murmured, | last words. “What did you want, old fellow?” “We won't leave you again. It was very careless of us to do sc.” Anstruther lifted his hand in depre- cating fashion. i “Nonsense. I don't want 80 much | looking after, but when Kitty was away I thought that I saw someone in that little room.” “In my bath room?” “Yes, Kitty sits there sometimes when she wants me to stop talking and | sleep; and I thought that she had come | back.” “There is no one there now,” said | Rolt, coming back from the room. “Who did you think it was?” “I don’t know. I saw someone peer- ing round the door at me. I thought that it was an Indian when I sat up and called, you know what happened.” “Did you hear the man move?” “No; I only saw the face, or thought that I did, but perhaps it was only a sick man’s fancy.” ! “He is a fraud, Kitty,” decided Rolt, with a good-humored laugh,” he want- ed you back, and invented this bogie as an excuse to bring you back. Better not. leave your post again,” and 80 say- ing he dismissed the subject, but nevertheless he went into the little bathroom and looked round it very carefully. On the table beneath his looking-glass lay a handful of small silver, with his studs and some old gold seals in a china tray, and his watch was hung on a nail in the win- dow frame. These were the only small | moveables of any value in the room, | and neither they nor anything else in| the room appeared to have been touch-— ed. As he went out of the room he) noticed a damp patch upon the pol- | ished wood of the stairs, which a vivid | imagination might have made into the | outline of a wet mocassin, but the Boss disregarded it. : Five minutes later wher he met his wife downstairs, he asked whether she | had found anything for the old woman. “Yes, | made up quite a bundle for her; a warm petticoat and al! sorts of | thick things, Kitty's and mine; but the silly old thing has gone without | them.” } ) Rolt looked grave. i |, “Ob, you need not frown, Dick.

Old as she was she must have moved quickly to have gained the shelter of the gulch already, or she could not have waited long for those clothes, A question which Rolt wanted ask was suppressed before it left his lips. long it was since old Mary hed given the house one of her “thorough scrub- bings.” “More than a month, I'm afraid, bet you know they have all been away rom the rancherie. Why’? Do any of the rooms want scrubbing very badly, old man?” “Oh, no, not a bit, I make a good deal of mess with my boots in the bath room, but you and Kitty look after the top floor, don’t you, little woman. It is always as clean a& & new pin in spite of my efforts to the contrary.” “What a delightful old humbug you are, Dick, where I am concerned,” she said fondly. “I did not know that you would miss old Mary's miwistrations, She cleans the whole house once a month, upstairs and down, but we ought tq have kept up appearances at any rate in her absence. I will go and see to it at once.” This was more than Rolt had bar- gained for. He had obtained the in- formaticr. he wanted without alarm- ing her, but by suggesting a fault where he knew none existed. However, he followed his wife to the room, and was relieved to be shown all gorts of dirt and disorder, which he himself would never have noticed, but no trace could he find of that for which he was lookizig. Nothing had been touched; nothing that he could think of was missing. Even that damp outline on the boards had dried off now. to Mary in his room, thuugh she appar- ently did know the way to it. He paused for a long minute, and went over everything carefully with his eye. By George! his Winchester No, it hadn't. There it waz behind his oilskin. and there was absolutely nothing else which could have wanted. That face peering around the door- way must have been a sick man’s fancy. CHAPTER XVII. In order to keep Anstruther amused and quiet, Mary Rolt had dinner served that night for the four of them | jin the bedroom, busying herself in making the pretty. place as vivid a coutrast as possible to the grim world outside. A wood fire glowed merrily on the} wide hearth, and the light of it was | reflected by the silver and glass that | nestled cosily in the folds of the rose- colored cretonne hangings. “Do you want all the blinds drawn, Frank?” she asked with her hand on the last of them. “Not unless you wish it.” “Well, then, I'll leave this one un- drawn. I always snuggle into bed more cosily when I can peep out into a bitter wight like that. Can you see down the valley from where you lie without moving? A peep at it will make the fire feel warmer and the |rvom more homelike.” “It always feels homelike where you are, Mrs. Rolt.” She curtseyed to him with a laugh, and then, turning to Kitty, who had just entered the room, bade her be quick with the dinner. “And see, my girl,” she “that is not the way to lay a tabie, and then with a few deft touches re- arranged some of the silver. Kitty for the nonce had donned cap and apron, and Anstruther was not the first to discover more charm and added, ” | coquetry in a maid’s cap than in her mistress’s toilette. “Does the family expect to be waited she asked, saucily. s “What do you mean, Katherine? “Where I was last, the family had to be waited on when it had 4 party, | but when it was by itself it stretched like this,” and reaching across the table she possesed herself of a salt cellar. “You went ) se,” retorted Mrs. Rolt, severely, | Pal lady and no help, like Miss Mo- ran. “What was her story?” asked An- “Oh, she came out to help the poor dear boys, her brothers. ‘They could not afford to hire any help, and just pigged until she came. At the end ofa fortnight their sister had discovered exactly ninoty-nine different things, each of which was, “the only thing she never could do,” and actually, guessing who it was who cleaned the boots, she put hers outside her bed- room door every night.” “And?” “And? Ob, and she married, of course, and ner brothers do just as they did whilst she was with them, except that her husband cleans her boots now.” But Anstruther was not listening to Mrs. Rolt’s libel‘ on lady-helps. stead, he was gezing intently through the uncurtained window at the foot of | his bed, to which the others had their backs turned. “Who would be camping down the valley to-night, Mrs. Rolt?” he asked. “In the hay meadows? No one, “Is not that a fire? Surely, my eyes are not playing me false again?” The Boss turned lazily in his chair. “Yes, that is a fire sure enough. There are two of them. Do you e that little one just beyond the first? Suddenly Rolt’s face changed. e sprang to. the window, took one searching glance down the valley, and then turned sharply to his wife, his face working with some feeling which he strove to control. “Mary, dear, 1 want to speak tc you for a moment. Will you excuse us, Frank?” and laying his hand on Kit- pered, “Keep him quiet whatever hap- ns. I rely on you,” and thet he fol- lowed his wife from the room.

Mary Rolt's heart sank as she saw him snatch the rifle, but she did his bidding as he would have had her do it, with the utmost coolness, and when master, she went back to the sick room. There was no need for any explanation there. Through the uncurtained window a glare of red light proclaimed the work that was on hand, even if the noise of saddling up and the hurry of hoofs beneath the window and the short sharp sentences of the mounting men had not told the tale. “Is it shoot, Al?” they heard some- one ask. ; “Shoot? Aye, shoot to kill, curse them. Git, you devil,” and a clatter of hoofs told that the horse had “got.” “Never mind the near stacks, boys; you can't save them. Ride for all you are worth to the first that ts not light- ed, and—” the Boss's voice died out as he galloped away with hie mou, HOW JIM FLYNN | GAVE CARL HIS Morris Versus Flynn Boxing Bout at New York was a Sorry Affair.
