TYB0UT Illustration of Courtesy and Hospitality It Would Be Hard to Find Match For. Havelock Ellis, in bis "Soul ot Simla," has revealed intimately and charmingly the temperament of the Spanish people. According to him, the Spaniard Is still fundamentally primitive. In proof of his possession of the primal instincts of hospitality and charity be quotes the following anecdote from an Aragonese newspaper of a few years ago, at a time when there was much distress In Aragon. A laborer out of work came on the highroad determined to rob the first person be met. This was a man with a wagon. The laborer bade him bait, aud demanded his money. ' "Here are $30, all that I have," the detained man replied. "There la nothing left for me but robbery. My family are dying of hunger," the aggressor, said, apologetically, and proceeded to put the money In his pocket; but as be did so bin mind changed. "Take this, chlco," he said, handing back $20. "One Is enough for me." "Would you like anything I have In the cart?" asked the wagoner, impressed by this generosity. "Yes," said the man. "Take this dollar back, too. I bad better have some rice and some beans." The wagoner banded over a bag ot ataoles, and then btld out five dollars, which, however, the laborer refused. "Take them for luck money," said the wagoner. I owe you that And only so was the would-bpersuaded to accept. Youth's Companion. - e TO UTAH EDUCATORS.

To assure them there wan no danger, Mary Anne descended to the basement alone and quieted their fears.. I g ura-ham- t CHAPTER VI. It was a very beautiful world which greeted us In the morning after the storm, all swept and garnished and freshly painted for our delectation. I wish I could describe It, as we stood upon o ur veranda drinking in the ozo-i- e and feasting our eyes upon the lacdscape. Perhaps If I were an artist I could better express the bright azure of the sky, the deep er blue of the sparkling ocean rippling with waves, the wonderful clearness of the atmosphere, and the glorious sunlight gilding everything until the commonest objects were endowed with a charm hitherto unsuspected. and un reI had wakened tired freshed, and both Gabrielle and Elizabeth looked, rather pale and heavy-eyeso we decided to spend the day at home, and established ourselves upon the veranda for one of the long, lazy mornings In which we frequently Indulged. Lady Edith Campbell soon Joined ua, fresh and dainty In her pretty morning costume and simple hat, and we greeted her with enthusiasm. "Wilfrid has gone fishing," she re marked, as she removed her hat, "and as he means to be away all day, I shall not be missed. How very cozy you all look, and what a wonderful morning, Is It not?" "If storms bring days like this," re marked Gabrielle, from the hammock, "I shall not care how often they come." "Oh, shall you not?" replied Lady Edith, with a little shiver. "I do not believe I agree with you. Last night was terrible even in the village; what It roust have been in this exposed place I cannot Imagine. I am always afraid of the wind, and then, too" She paused uncertainly and looked at us.' "Such a dreadful thing happened! Do you care to hear hotel gossip?" . We hastened to assure her that we loved all gossip, hotel or otherwise, ind she resumed. "Well, last night Mrs. Bundy, the fat old lady who had the table next to Edith, thoughtfully. "But I confess It has made me nervous. I did not bring many Jewels, fortunately, but I hav my mother's pearls and a few othr trinkets I would not care to lose, ad I do not know what to do with them, since It appears unsafe to trust thin 'n one's room, even If they are put away. Mrs. Bundy insisted that she locked up her emeralds with her own hands, and had the key on a rib!'- - - nround her neck." 'lad we left when we did," I "Not that .1 as she paused. rcu. I aw burdened with Jewels, but it must be awfully unpleasant." "It Is," she agreed: "one Is Inclined to look sMsplclously at one's neighbors, not to mention servants. As for me, I have put my treasures In this box and carried It with me everywhere this morning. I would not even trust my maid, who has been with me for years. I do not know what In the world to do with them, and am more than half Inclined to dig a hole and bury them deep and safe." She gave a vexed little laugh as she spoke, and raised a box wrapped In white paper which Bhe held on her lap, and which had appeared to contain bonbons. "I'll tell you." said Elizabeth. Impulsively. "Leave them here. There Is a little iron safe under the china closet in the dining room. I can't Imagine why It was put there, for it is not big enough to hold much silver, even If we had anything but the most obvious plate; but it possesses two padlocks, and you could lock it and keep the keys." "Do you really mean It?" said Lady Edith, Incredulously. "Yes why not? I'm sure we won't be pursued for our valuables, and, If you will take all responsibility for' leaving them, you are more than welcome to the exclusive use of the safe isn't she, girls?" Of course we agreed willingly, and were quite repaid by the look of relief In her big brown eyes and the pretty, eager manner with which she endeavored to express her gratitude. "Let us put them away at once and get them off our minds," suggested Gabrielle, springing from the hammock and leading the way to the dining room, i So we opened the door which looked like an ordinary wooden panel below the corner closet and disclosed - life-givin- g white-cappe- jurs. you know" "Who wore a diamond sunburst on ier forefinger and headlights In her ars," interrupted Gabrielle. "And came to breakfast In a velvet teagown, with an emerald necklace," supplemented Elizabeth. "Of course we remember her. Did she die of apoplexy or anything?" . "She was robbed," said Lady Edith gravely. "All her Jewels were taken, and they were very valuable. Poor old woman! Was It not dreadful? She Is in a state of hysterical collapse this morning, and who can wonder?" "Robbed!" I exclaimed, incredu louly. "Yes, robbed. It makes one very uncomfortable, does It not? They say It Is the work of an expert, and have put the matter Into the hands of the police, hoping to recover tlio Jewels "Whom do they suspect?" "I do not know," she Lesltated a momont, then resumed quietly: "You see, the hotel was crowded last night on the with strangers storm-bounIsland, and It will be difficult to form an opinion. Mrs. Untidy was alarmed at the storm, and spent most of the night In her dnughtor's room. It is probable the thief got In then, or when she was at dinner. "Dut," objected Elizabeth,. "It roust have been some one who knew she had them. It could not have been a Earthquake Fears. Mankind are strangely Inconsistent In the matter of running risks. There la no danger that appalls the Imnglna tlon more than the danger ot earth quake, and yet those parts of the world that are most subject to earth quakes seem never to have been therefore shunned by human beings An earthquake is an "act of God," and men are clearly helpless against it Like death, no one knows when It may come; but, unlike death, It may never come to all, and therefore men fear stranger." "One can never tell." It less than death. London Times. said Lady For Awhile I Swung Idly To and Fro, the little Iron safe with its two pad locks both so rusty from disuse that it took all the strength I possessed to turn the keys.. "There!" I remarked, handing them to Lady Edith and closing the outer wooden door. "Now you can rest in peace." "You have removed an Incubus from my Bhoulders," she said, with a quick display of dimples, "and I am more grateful than I can express. I should not have had an easy minute after Mrs. Bundy's experience, although I am Inclined to believe it was one of the strange men who spent the night here, rather than a guest or servant of the hotel. I would rather think so. "And do you know," she continued, thoughtfully, "my maid says that sev eral of these men left very early, with out waiting for breakfast as soon as It was light, in fact. That In itself .seems suspicious, under th circum stances, but then, as I said, every one Is Inclined to suspect every one else, and It Is all very, horrid and uncom fortable. Now, do let us go outside again and not waste this glorious day." We had a delightful morning, for our guest was even more charming than usual. There was a subdued ex hilaratlon in her manner, and an ex uberance of spirit we had never seen before; her cheeks were softly pink, and her eyes shone, as Bhe chatted merrily of various things after the fashion of glrla the world over. In her softened mood, with the grande dame manner laid aside, Bhe was quite Irresistible, and I found myself won dering why her left hand bore neither wedding nor engagement ring, and whether she as well as her brother had an unhappy romance to be lived down and forgotten. She did not, however, convey the Impression of a lovelorn damsel, for a more radlnnt creature I have never seen. By the time lunch was over we felt as though we had known her al ways, and were planning a summer abroad, part of which was to be spent at her fathers castle In Scotland. "I hope," she added, "that Wilfrid will have quite recovered his poise before you come over, and you can see hint as he really Is such a dear fcl low! And then, who knows what mlgljt happen? One of you might be induced to stay In the old world, for we have many friends, and American girls are very popular, you know." -- After lunch Elizabeth declared her Intention of going down tho cellar to see what It was like, saying that It made her very uncomfortable not to know what she lived over; but she returned Immediately, with a most disgusted expression. "Mary Anne Is scrubbing," she an nounced, "and the whole place Is as wet as the ocean. I'll have to wait until Just uow I would . need a boat." ,. "What's the use of bothering?" In quired Gabrielle, placidly. "It would not worry me If I never explored the cellar. Just so I know It's there, dont care what It looks like." "Well. I do," returned Elizabeth. "and I'm going down there the first thing In the morning, If I don't for . get it." "Suppose we walk down to the" wharf in the village." suggested Lady Edith, "and meet Wilfrid. We might Induce him to take us for a sail." But I still fell very Indolent and preferred tho hammock, with Its many pillows and cool breeze, to the long. hot walk to the village, so the othei three started cheerfully off, leaving me to my own devices. For a while I swung Idly to and fro, watching the dancing water and admiring the effect of the sunlight on the occasional snll which ventured around the point from the Island col ony on the other side. I was thinking in a desultory way of poor Mrs. Bundy and her lost emeralds, and of Lady Edith and her mother's pearls, and wishing she had opened the box and shown them to us before locking them away, when I heard a stop upon the gravel path, and Gordon Bennett lifted his cap and smiled amicably upon me as though he were quite in the habit of paying us daily visits. I noticed then whnt white teeth he bad and how he smiled with his eyei as well as his lips, but this Is an unimportant digression. "I apologize for coming so often," he remarked, appropriating a comfortable chair. "My excuse Is that I wish to return your property. I for, got it yesterday." He drew Gabrlelle's tag from his pocket as he spoke, and regarded It affectionately. "At last," be continued, "I suppose It belongs to one of you; I found It on the steamer coming up, you know, Just where you had been sitting." I acknowledged our ownership ot the and extended my hand for It, but he held it thoughtfully, as though unwilling to relinquish It. "Would you mind," he said at last, with Borne hesitation, "telling me why when I started to bring you this bag that night on the steamer, you all turned and fled as though I had been a carnivorous, animal?" was a twinkle In Ms eyt . There which made me hotly resentful, al though I tried to preserve a cool and indifferent manner. t "Would you really like to know?" "Pining to be told; I have loBt val uable sleep trying to work It out." v Well, we thought you were crazy.' "Why, please?" His voice was genuinely astonished and I plunged at once Into an explana tlon I hoped would be satisfactory. "You see, It was those chairs you threw overboard. It was such an ex traordlnary thing to do. And GabrlelU said you muttered when you did It." ' "Is that all? relief and amusement struggled for supremacy In his voice and I felt myself flushing uncom fortably. . "I think It's quite enough," I 're turned, Irritably. "No men In theli sonses go around throwing chairs overboard." "And Is that why I got the cold shoulder when I called?" Mr. Gordon Bennett laughed then as be has never dared laugh since when referring to that subject, for we don't like to talk about it, as It makes us appear rather foolish.
