They bored a tunnel 700 feet long In the direction of the arsenal. It was one of tbe most pretentious examples of subterranean work In revolutionary annals since the days of the terrorists of the eighties. From the basement of an Armenian house the revolutionists worked their resiway under several intervening dences at a depth of twenty feet They constructed a completely sided tunnel, roofed it with planks and provided It with electric light and electric bells, connected with tbe stations of the several revolutionists on watch. Owing to a slight miscalculation tbs tunnel, lti burrowing upward, entered, not the magazine, but an adjoining store room in the arsenal containing uniforms. Before they had time to rectify their mistake, the revolutionists were accidentally discovered by an officer; the alarm was given and a cordon of troops was Immediately thrown around the adjoining houses. But owing to the length of the tunnel, the Armenian house from which the conspirators started, was not suspect ed and they had ample time to escape. The entrance of the tunned was evetv tually discovered by volunteers, who entered It from the store room and traced the passage to Its source.

My sister, Lucinda, had tbe first choice. She took a black and white straw, and loaded It with flowers and ribbons till it looked like nothing earthly "When he was last In Manomet," said she, "Jack Rolfe used to see me home regularly from singing school; and when he went away he promised to bring me a present from Greenland." About noon the door of our store opened again, and a new customer fluttered in. It was Elizabeth, panting hard, and grasping a sliver piece In her hand. Father was at dinner, so he sent me behind the counter to serve. Elizabeth and I were of the same age 16 but her shining head stood an Inch or two higher than mine. 1 "Joey, she said, breathlessly, want to buy one of the new bonnets. I answered. "Theyre all gone, "Mother sold the last before the clock struck 12." Her face fell. "Oh, Joey, are you sure 7 Havent you one left?" I made a pretense of rummaging through the window, though I knew no bonnet was there. "Mother cant afford me many new things," she explained in a trembling voice, "but this time she said I should, for once, be like the other girls. My old hat Is very shabby not fit for Sunday wear any longer. Oh, I suppose you haven't overlooked one bonnet In some corner, Joey?" She was awfully disappointed. "Never mind, she tried to say, "thank But she choked up sudyou, Joey. denly, and hurried out of the store. 1 looked through the window, and, as she went down the streeL I saw that she was crying.

"Ive got two silver dollars, and some tame rabbits, and an old gun Ill give the whole business for that coal scuttle of yours, Cindy. The dish cloth dropped from her hand.

The British ambassador at Constantinople on Friday presented a note to Turkey demanding the com plete withdrawal of Turkish troops from Egyptian territory, Tbe note Is practically an ultimatum and constitutes Great Britains last word on the encroachment of Turkey in the Sinai peninsula. The French and Russian ambassadors at Constantinople are supporting tbe British contentions. Should the ultimatum fall to have tbe desired effect the British Mediterranean fleet will take tbe measure so often employed by the powers In recent years as the result of disputes with the sultan, and a naval demonstration, It is anticipated, will quickly bring about the evacuation of the Ta-baterritory which Great Britain con tends Is unquestionably Egyptian ter rltory. & So J.

That night Cindy returned from prayer meeting, and told us that Rolfs had been sitting again In the Millei pew, and that he had gone homt through the moonlight with Elizabeth My heart burned like a hot coal.

The next morning hi walked Into our store, and laid a whlti bearskin on the counter before Cindy from I promised you a present said he Greenland, you remember, and here It is." I bore my torment for awhile, then took the old gun that I had offered Cindy as part payment for her bonnet and started for the beach, where tht folk were usually to b found. As I went plunging through the wood, I stumbled against a man wuo was cutting letters on the trunk of a tree and singing softly to himself as he worked. he called, gay as a Hello, Joey! lark. Looking fo; squirrels?" At once 1 felt like a fool. I tried to slip the old gun into the bushes. 1 Of course, answered, glibly; have you seen any hereabouts? "No, said the captain. He finished the last letter with a flourish, shut his jackknife and put it in his pocket I sidled up to the tree, and Io! he had hacked Elizabeths Initials la the green bark. Come down to the beach, Joey, said CapL Jack, "and have a sail with me. Theres no wind stirring, but Ill whls tie for a capful. And whistle he did, as we strode down the path the sweetest, clearest notes I ever heard. And presently something ruffled the water, the little waves began to leap; a eool murmur came up, as it seemed, from the heart of the sea; the captain niade the boat ready and we Jumped In. As he trimmed the sail he fell to telling me about his voyages in the South Pacific and the awful white North; of doubling the black precipices of Cape Horn, with floating icebergs threatening the ship on every side. I forgot 'Llzbeth and the old gun, and when I trudged home my head was full of whaling stations, and blubber, and big fish, and sharp, clinker-built boats, and I acknowledged in my heart that Jack Rolfe was the finest fellow In the world. But presently the spell which he had thrown upon me passed away, and my Jealousy revived. Though I no longer wished to harm the captain, I saw that I must steal a march upon him. At nightfall I went to Elizabeths house and found her leaning on the gate. She wore a muslin gown that looked like a white cloud, and some blush roses were dying In her bosom. Was It here you stood.
