C, The major was one of the many well born Englishmen who come to Califor nia with a younger son's portion and a small monthly allowance and hope to make a fortune on a vineyard or a wheat tanoh. The plan always looks feasible in England, and the agent assures his vic tim that the thousand pounds will buy a ten acre plot, plant vines, build a de cent bungalow and tide the owner over until the vines shall bear and bring him a harvest of good American gold. The major was going the way of many of his English friends. The 1,000 legacy was gone, and the monthly allowance of 20 (which, viewed from a distance, seemed large) always grew painfully small as it neared California and the debts it was supposed to cover. .The major's little mountain vineyard had been destroyed by phylloxera, and he was living on the uncertain promise of a number of green shoots, called, re spectfully, "the olive orchard." But the major was not unhappy. When he was not tilling the soil, he sat on his lit tle veranda, with his brier wood pipe be tween his teeth and studied the long, narrow, picturesque Napa valley far be low. It may be that the major's failure to succeed in the grape business was not the fault of the country,' but that his genial, unpractical nature was the true obstacle to success. The major was, in fact, the most helpless Englishman who ever came to California to take care of himself. The poor fellow became so con vinced of this after a short trial that he engaged a man to act. as valet to him self and incidentally cook the meals for both. The major was a solitary bachelor then. The gods alone know in what un propitious moment he picked up Pete to hang about his neck, a millstone of in efficiency. Pete's poverty must have been his recommendation and tbe ma jor's poverty the excuse for keeping him. Pete had about as much knowledge of laying out and caring for a man 's ward robe as the, major had of running a ranch. The consequence was thut the major often presented himself at bis friends'; houses in the most surprising garb a combination of white duck trousers, black frock coat and russet hunting boots being one of Pete's mas terpieces. In his capacity as-cook Pete was not One whit more efficient and of ten suffered mental agony over the pon derous directions of the major's French cookbook, which were like the hiero glyphics of the ancients to his clouded intellect. Considering the diet of sour bread and tinned meats which Pete pro vided, it is only less than marvelous that his benefactor was still alive. When the major married Ellie Smith, a pretty San Francisco girl, Pete was promoted to bo manager of the ranch and expended his grooming talents on the pet mule. The major's wife was "artistic." She bad studied sketching and did some really clever bits. Her ad miring husband was sure '. that sho pos sessed the divine afflatus, and conse quently much time was devoted to art and little time to ranching. But this was not without protest from one individual. Not that he was disturb ed by lack of work, but poor Pete was oftener than not the unwilling model for Ellie's clever .studies.' One day Pete posed for 'The Man With the Hoe. " His temper was particularly tried on that oc casion, for he had taken up his tool with the honest intention of weeding the primitive vegetable garden. Though he had scudded through the back yard and climbed the rear fence he had not count ed on meeting his young mistress in the barnyard. He began to wrestle with the weeds and pffetended not to see her. His education, however, had not included a sight of Millet's picture, or he would have fled down the mountain side in utter despair. "Stop, stop, Peter, right there. Don't move an inch," called the sweet voice that drove him to madness. ' Kenneth", ' ' Ellie called to her .husband, "look. Isn't it wonderful? The lights, the pose, the very landscape like" " 'The Man With the Hoe,' " shouted the major gleefully. "I'll get your paints, Ellie. Hold on, Petel" And be fore that honest son of toil had time to collect his scattered senses, he found himself posing in a very uncomfortable attitude, with the Napa valley lying at his feet and the major's familiar phrases ringing in his ears "fine pose jolly good subject delicious coloring. After Pete had posed for a hundred or more indifferent works of art without names, ne began to tnmK oi aeseriuiK his master and leaving him to a just and awful fata But this stupendous blow was averted by the arrival of Brompton Edwards, another Englishman, who had come to learn practical ranching under the direction of his father's old friend, the major. After a week had been given up to driving his" protege about the valley anl introducing him to the English colony, the major returned to his daily routine of pruning olive trees and digging out worm eaten grapevines. Ellie soon dis covered in tbe young man's clean cut features and fine, athletic figure an en tirely new field for art study, and Ed wards found the time pass more pleas antly as a model than as an embryo ;ancher. They were together during most of the daylight hours. When Brompton was not posing for a wild Norseman or a Wreek nero, ne was sit ting very close to Ellie, criticising, in soft, caressing tones, the sketches of himself which she had been doing. With out actually straying from the path of duty, Ellie was treading on dangerously uncertain territory. She quite frankly admitted to herself that she was pretty and charming, and, being of that mind, she did not repress comparisons between her husband and the younger man. Matters had arrived at a state where a warm hearted bat vain young woman needed a friend with the strength to hold up a good, powerful, unrelenting mirror for her to gaze into. Pete could have held up the mirror with right good will, but he did not know how. In those, days he followed the major around with doglike devotion, and only glowered when Ellie came but to the orchard one morning with her paints and succeeded in bringing upon herself a scolding from her overindulgent husband. She held her head very high and stiff, and march ed o.ver the hill some distance away, where she seated herself and pretended to sketch, but was in reality nursing het injured feelings to keep them alive. The major watched her disappear with a pai-jed expression on bis good natured face, and then went dejectedly into tha house. Pete was deeply incensed against Ellie, and made another solemn vow to papi-t Lthe ranch. It w the ninety flOd ninth time that .'hadoiDe's'andiis time he sealed the) vow with an oath. The long grass on the Napa hills wag burned and crisp and Ellie was daubing yellow ocher and burnt umber over hei canvas with vicious strokos. She was not giving any attention to her work, however, fori an athletic: form stood be tween her and the landscape, and she was indulging in a vefy-foolish daj dream. To do the little Woman justice, she was not in loye with; Brompton, but her vanity had been stimulated to such wonderful activity by hi8 youthful gal lantries that she fancied he was deeply infatuated with her. She wondered if he would ever tell her that he loved her. Ii she could? only have some test of hia love, what a satisfaction it would be ! .. Over on the mountain side a ball mile away Pete leaned ; orc his hoe and watched a thread of fire crawling like-a red snake through the underbrush of chaparral and manzanita. . He knew only too well that no human power could stop it, and that within a few minutes the gentle breeze) would cause a flying spark to fall upon the long dry grass, and puff the crawling snake would become a great swirling, galloping mass of flame and smoke and would pass over the very place where Ellie sat sulking and dreaming. Pete had firmly deter mined to leave the ranch. He had wash ed bis hands of these- people. He would not but the grass was on fire, and Pete made a dash for; the house, yelling at the top of his lungs for the manor. j The volume of smoke was rising high when Ellie rose to her) feet and sniffed the air. Before she could gather up her paints a thin rim of fire ran along the top of the little hill above her. The small birds and insects rose from the ground with a whir and scattered down the hillside. Ellie glanced' quickly back ward and saw the fire licking up the grass as it bore down upon her and the smoke rolling heavenward in dense, sooty clouds. She did not lose her pres ence of mind, but remembered a small plowed field a short distance away, where the flames could not reach her, and ran nimbly down the hill, with her fluttering skirts gathering cockle burs and sticker weed as she sped. ' When she was fairly on the plowed ground and gasping for breath, she saw the young Englishman tearing along the hill at a frantic rate. Through the smoke he looked pale and frightened. Ellie felt a thrill of satisfaction. ; Here was tbe longed for proof of his love. He thought 6he was in danger and had come to her rescue. A deep blush mounted to her cheeks and her heart beat to suffocation, But be did not seem to see her. It was. evident to her that he was crazed with fear and would i plunge into the fire in search of her. Merciful God I He would be burned.) I , ' ; -J "Brompton IV she screamed. "Dear Brompton,1 1 am here Safe. " The fire was very close, and she had to throw herself flat on; the ground to escape being burned. She gave one mote despairing cry as she felt) tbe hot breath scorch her clothing. "Brompton! Brompton 1 Brompton !" . A great wave of smoke and flame wept around the edges of the plowed ound, and for a minute nothing could be seen or heard. Fortunately for Ellie the dry grass horned Mike tinder, and the fire was soon roaring down the hill toward the valley. V When Ellie, choked and frightened, lifted her head, she saw the thin, leng, scantily clad legs of her husband bound ing over the blackened earth toward her. His' duck trousers wer smeared with soot, and he hadff ,wet blanket about bis shoulders. JTo could not speak,' but caught Ellie in his arms and burst into 6tifled sobs. 1 i Back of them was heard the voice of Brompton Edwards.. "Hello there, ma jor!''' he called. "I had a very narrow squeak cf it. My hammock and books aro burned to tinder by this. By Jove, old fellow, lyou 'are turned yourself, aren't yon? Your wifo was safe enough. I knew she could take care of herself." ' 'But Ellie buriod her bead in tbe wet blanket with ia shudder and burst into tears of shamo and contrition. "Well, welj, " gasped Pete,, who had stumbled up ihe hill with a bundle of wet sacks. "I never was so plagueyl scared in my life. Thought you'd bej burned sure, Miss Ellie. ) Me and the ma jor'll have a flue time next week clear ing" ! For Pete had reconsidered his ninety and ninth xsftw. Indeed it was only a week later when he was speculating if there was ever a happier couple than the major and his Ellie. .And Pete beamed as he thougLt of the ignoble part Bromp ton Edwards played ; on the day of the fire.

No section may exclusively claim Octave Thanet and say,)" She is mine," ja the sense that Miss Murfree belongs to Tennessee or Miss ; Wilkins to New England, writes Mary J. Reid in The Ladies' Home Journal. Miss Alice French was jborn in Andover, Mass., her ancestors on both sides belonging to well known" New!

When but 5 years old, her fa ther removed to Davenport,' la. , but she was sent to Andover to be graduated from the same seminary which her Grandmother French had attended when a girL There are strong fibers in her na ture which draw her to the south and midwest Some portions of those re gions she says she knows like her own soul , f Her fair complexion, fathomless blue eyes, light brown hair and also her ten der conscience andrlove of learning ally her to New England. Her manners, speech andmagnificent physique are southern, while her humorous mouth and vigorous, practical mind bespeak her a daughter of the", west A long resi dence at the south and a study of vari ous dialects have somewhat affected her pronunciation. "If Miss French were a foreigner," a New England poet re marked, "I should call her speech an accent," but I have heard the same pro Dunciation in old Virginian and Mary land families. It is a curious old contrivance, this world of ours. It has more motions than almost any j other eccentric body, and the more it is studied the mora motions it has. First of all, it travels about the sun; then it takes a whirl of its own accord around itself, like a top; then it Wobbles from one end to the other, just a little bit, it is true, but enough to make a motion. Now it has another quirk, and What that quirk is goodness only knows) The new quirk does not exist at the; equator, but it does at xhe north polo, jit is very slight at sea level, but up in the mountains it is quite per ceptible. Anybody can see it if he wants to, this newly discovered movement of the world.' J Suspended from the lantern of the state capitol building, which is that tall, thin tower on top of the dome and reaching into the subbasement. is a wire. It is of steel, one-sixteenth of an inch thick; and on the end of it is a plnmb, filled with wet sand and weigh ing a'jont 40 pounds. A wise man who once had a similar contrivance working in Switzerland has started this one in the capitol dome.; His observations in Switzerland got him into no end of trouble. He said the world - made such and such a movement, or rather that his pendulum did, and as the big pendulum did it, then, he argued, the world must do it amid its many other remarkable acts. But) the astronomers came down on him like a thousand of bricks. They 'hauled out their papers and their tele scopes, their spectroscopes,' their picro scopes, their algebras and everything else they possessed and proved that the experimenting scientist, was not only wrong, but quite wrong. He said his pendulum described an ellipse. The astronomers said it did nothing of the kind, if not interfered with, and the worst of it was they proved it i Now he has proved it him self, and although it reverses his former position he is immensely pleased with the result of his observations. The ex periment made in the Alps soveral years ago and that just made in the dome of the capitol is simple and a very beauti ful one. ' The long pendulum w,aa suspended and the center of gravity determined that is, a ) spot was; marked which was exactly beneath the suspensory at the top of the lantern. ; The pendulum was then carried in a straight line 1G feet to the north of tbe center of gravity and released, j This gavo a full swing of 33 feet As ! any one would suppose, the pendulum went ' as a clock pendulum does, backward and forward, but slowly it left the straight north and south course through the center of gravity, veering toward the west Little by lit tle the end of the swing, which should have always swung back to the north, if it was to keep up the figure described by a clock pendulum, gradually crept west, until it went through 45 degrees, when it was swinging from south to north. Then it crept east and around to the point of beginning. In 48 hours to a minute almost n complete circle had been described. The experiment is said to have been a complete success. Twice each day the pendulum was given a new impetus, its own weight and natural laws tending to stop it. Before grasping it the scien tists conducting the experiment would carefully sight between the two points on the basement floor it was oscillating over, and having fixed them to a uiGety would seize the plumb, carry it to the full 10 foot point and release it for an other 12 hours' journey. For six days this was; kept up, and three times did that pendulum make a complete revolu tion, j What got the scientist wifo is now at work in the capitol into trouble in Swit zerland was a similar experiment to that he is now making. He went as near the top of a mountain as he could, and from the projecting bough of a tree sus pended a. 800 foot pendulum- He fol lowed there precisely the same methods he did in Denver last week, but instead of his plumb traveling in sharp lines back and forth it described an ellipse that is, it made a long O. . This struck the experimenter as be ing a marvelous discovery. He wrote about it in a most learned manner. His pendulum did precisely what it did in the dome of the capitol. It made its revolution, but the ellipse was what caused the immense excitement and shook up the astronomers. Now the ex perimenter has decided that the ellipse was all i occasioned by the give which the bough of his tree must certainly have- allowed, no matter how stanch the tree, and his"experiment in the cap itol quite bears him out in this position. . The capitol was selected because it is over a mile above the sea level, it is ab solutely stationary, and the interior is free from all outside interferences, such as drafts or flying- projections. It had been stated that the world has more quirks in it than; were ever dream ed about, and every time it is tampered With something new is discovered. The fact is that it is all the time shaking tike an aspen. A basin of mercury which Assistant Superintendent Griner tf the capitol keeps in tne place, mer lury being the most sensitive of all jfiquids, shows the capitol to shake Very much, i Reduced to common measure ment, perhaps the oscillation is about decimal ten naughts and one of an eighth af an inch, but the shake is there: be jause the mercury . quivers.
