dly knew. But they had been engaged
ady sorae months, without a sinele dis.
eement, which of course, gave Netta a

he thought fit, and as they returned

versity. The ways of women are wonder-
; no mere man cam fathom them. Some.

etteehad burst into perfectly orthodox
rs, refused to be comforted in the most
proved fashion, declined to accept Ugh-
d's escort home, and bidden farewell to
excitedly for ever and ever.
It was all about nothing, to be sure, and
two older or wiser heads had only stood
unseen to view the little comedy they
uld sagely have remarked to one auother,
th a shake, that before 24 hours were out
•a pair would be rashing into one =tether's
ms with mutual apologies and mutual
rgiveness. But Netta Mayne and Ughtred
rnegie were still at the age when dne
kes love seriously—one does before 30—
so they turned along different paths, at
e bottom of the combo, in the firm belief
at love's young dream was shattered, and
at they two were nothing more than pasa-
g acquaintances to one another.
Ughtred—if it were ooly for the tramps; a
man is such a comfort And then there was
that dreadful dog at Milton Court to pass,
And Ughtred was gone, and all the world
was desolate. .
Thinking these things in a ttintelt of fear
to herself, • she staggered along the path,
feeling tired at heart,, and positively ill
with remorse and terror. The dolor had
faded now out of her pretty red cheeks.
Ber eyes were dim and swollen with cry-
ing. She was almost half glad T,Ightred
couldn't see her jun then, she was snob a
fright with her long spell of brooding. Even
her bright print dress and her straw bat
with the poppies in it couldn't redeem, she
felt sure, be pallor and her wretchedness.
But Ughtred was gone, and the world was
a wilderness. And he would never come
back, and the dog at -Milton Court was SO
vicious.
As she walked or rether groped her way,
for she couldn't see for crying, down the
path by the hedge, at every step she grew
faintet and fainter. Ughtred was gone,
and the world was a blank, and there were
tramps and dors, and it was getting dark,
and she loved him so much, and mamma,
would be so angry.
Turning over which thoughts with a whirl-
ing brain, for she was but a girl after all,
she reached the little swinging gate that
led to the railway, and pushed it aside with
vague numbed hands, and stood. gazing va-
cantly at the long curved line m front of
her.
Suddenly a noise rose sharp in the field
behind her. it' was only a colt, to be sure,
disturbed by her approach, dashing wildly
across his paddock, as is the way with
young horseflesh. But to Netts it came as
an indefinite terror magnified ten thousand
fold by her excited feelings, She made a
frenzied dash for the other side of the railway,
What it was she knew not, bat it was or
might be Anything, everything—mad bulls,
drunken mem footpads, vagabonds, mur-
derers.
.0h, how could Ughtred ever have taken
her at her word, and left her, like this,
alone, and in the evening ? It was cruel,
it was wicked of him ; she hated to be dis-
loyal, and yet she felt in her heart it was
most unmanly. •
As she rushed along wildly, at the top of
her speed, her little foot caught on the first
rail, Before she knew what had happened
she had Wien with her body across the
line. Faint and terrified already with a
thousand vague alarms, the sudden shock
stunned and disabled her. Mad. bull or
drunken men, they might do as they liked
now. She wasbruised and shaken. She had
no thought left to rise and recover herself.
Her eyes closed heasily. She lost conscious-
ness at once. It was a terrible position.
She had fainted on the lino with the force
of the situation.
As for Ughtred, frotn his seat on the
telegraph post on the side of the line 500
yaras further up, be saw her pause by the
gate, then dash acress the road, then stum-
ble and trip, then fall heavily forward.
His heart came up into his month at once
at the sight. Oh, thank heaven, he was
near. She had fallen across the line, and a
train inight come along before she could
rise again. She seemed to be hurt, too. In
a frenzy of suspense he darted forward to
save her.
It tcok it but a second for him, to realize
thee she had fallen and was seriously hurt,
but in the course of that second, even as he
realized it all, another and more pressing
terror seized him.
Hark What was that? Ho listened and
thrilled. Oh, — too horrible — it must
be—the railway 1 He know it. He felt
it. Along up theline on which Netta was
lying he heard behind him—oh, unmistak-

man, unknown, stood agonized by its side,
stooping down, as he thought, to catch and
move it. There was no time to stop her
now; no time to avert the threatened ea-
tastrophe. All the driver could do in his
haste was to put the brake on hard and en-
deavor to lessen the force of the inevitable
concussion. But even as he looked and
wondered at the sight, putting on the
brake, meanwhile, with all his might and
main, he sew the man in front perform, to
his surprise, an heroic action. Rushing
full upon the line, straight before the very
lights of the advancing train, the man un-
known lifted np the pole by main force,
and Brandishing its end, as it were, wildly
in the drivers face, hurled the hugh black
bulk, with a terrible effort, te the side of
the railway. It fell with a crash aud the
man fell with it. There was a second's
pause, while the driver's heart stood still
with terror. Then a jar—a thud—a deep
scratch into the soil. A wheel was off the
line ; they had mat with an accident..
For a moment or two the driver only knew
that he was shaken up and hurt, but not se-
verely. The engine had left the track and
the carriages lay behind slightly shattered.
He could see how it happened. Part of the
pole in falling had rebounded on to the line.
The base of the great timber had struck the
near side wheel and sent it off the track in a
vain effort to surmount it. But the brake
had already slackened the pace and broken
the force of the shook. The possible dam-
age was very inconsiderable and they must
+sok along the carriages and find. out who
was hurt. And, above all things, what had
become of the man. who had so nobly res.
cued them? For the very first thing the en-
gine driver had seen of Ughtred as the train
stopped short was that the rna,n who Rung
the pole from the tradk before the advanc-
ing engine was knocked down by its ap-
proach, while the train to all. appearance
passed bodily over him. For good or evil,
Ughtred had made his decision at last at the

him in spite of himself. He eouldn'tlet*

though if he removed the pole and Netta
was killed he didn't know himself bow he
could ever outlive it. •
He prayed with all his heart that the train
might kill him.
The guard and the driver ran hastily along
the train. Nobody was hurt, though many
were • shaken or badly. bruised. Even
the carriages had escaped svith a few entail
cracks. The Holinleiwyesmash was nothing
very serious. .
• But the man with the pole? Their Preser-
ver their friend. Where was he 9,11 this
time? What on earth had become of him ?
• They looked along the line. They search-
ed the track in Vain. He had disappeared
as if by magic. Not a trace could be found

Till that second the idea had never even

wild rash of horror at Nettaes situation he
had thought only of her. He had regarded
the engine only as a hateful, cruel, destruc-
tive living being. He had forgotten the

An English correspondent writes; It has
been spoken of as noteworthy of late that
orators of Ulster and their English sympa-
thizers have been less outspoken than for.
merly 3m eclaring that the Ulster men
would never submit to Irish Home Rule.
An occasional outburst of that sort has hap-
pened, but. as a rule there has been little
talk about dying hi the last ditch rather
than accept the new order of things. On
She contrary, the text of most public speak-
ers has been that if Horne Rule is carried
Ulster will inapgurate a constitutional ag-
itation for its repeal, and will meanwhile
refuse to pay taxes to the officers of the
home Government. From certain startling
facts which your corrspondent has just
discovered, however, it appears that this
sudden moderation of speech is deceptive,
and that thoughts of violence continue
to animate tho people of Ulster. It is
learned than the leaders are secretly
and actively organizing for what will
be, if entered upon, virtually a civil war.
Every member of every Orange lodge in the
province is pledged to provide himself with
a ride and several hundred rounds of ammu-
nition within a month after the date of the
success of the Liberals at the general elec-
tions should that party be victorious. Drill-
ing in the use of fire -arms is carried on at
every lodge meeting. The Orange police-
men connive at this procedure, while no
policeman who is not an Orangeman is al-
lowed to get wind of what is going on.
Your correspondent accidentally learned the
facts in the case through a London financier,
who on Saturday gave :6500 to the fund
being raised for the purpose of buying arms
i
and nstructing local leaders in military
tactics. This instruetion is being furnished
in a curious manlier. The London volunteer
force is utilized for the purpose. About a
score of Ulster men arrive in London every
week and join a selected regiment of volume,
teers as ordinary recruits. This has beeu
going on since about February lat. The
plan is to give each batch about two month's
training, when they resign and,return home
to make room for others, and to themselves
act as instructors of their patriots at. home
The fund referred to is drawn upon for the
expense of the journeys, and also for living
expenses while in London; pravided the re-
cruits cannot find employment, of some kind
during their stay which Would aid in paying
their board bills. The fund is also intended
.to be used to transport to England any iso-
lated Protestant families who may desire to
make the change HI place of residence. The
scheme is -so extensive, and is necessarily
knitven to (30 many interested people, that
it is not likely that it CUM be kept from the
knowledge of the general public/much long-
