(£. ffimjhfii Spfsiiuui JUST as ihc CRIMSON is going to press comes the news of the resignation of President Richard Cecil Hughes. Unannounced and unexpected, it is a loss that will long be felt not only by the college but by the student body and townspeople. Dr. Hughes came to Ripon in 1901, resigning the presidency of l abor College, Iowa, to take up the administrative functions at Ri| on. He is a graduate of Wooster University, receiving his A. B. degree in 1884, A. M. in 1887, and D. D. in 1900. From 1887 to 1891 he was pastor of the Presbyterian Church. Sidney. la., took the professorship of psychology at I abor College in 1891, and accepted the presidency of the college in 1897. hrom the moment of his coming we had a changed Ripon. Life seemed to bud forth at once. Untiring energy coupled with good business management and the magnetism and personality of the new president, spread the reputation of the school throughout the middle west. In 1901 there were sixty-nine students enrolled in the college department and fifty- three in the academy, making a total of I 22. Every year since has seen a decided increase in the attendance, especially in the college department, until the catalog of 1909 shows a total enrollment of 276. Eight years ago the buildings were decidedly run down. Dilapidated, showing the havoc wrought by a half century of college boys, the buildings were sadly in need of repairs. It is much easier to get new buildings than it is money to repair old ones. said Dr. Hughes one time. But despite this fact the money was obtained. East building. Smith Hall. West building. Ingram Hall, and Bartlett Cottage,—all soon felt the results of the energies of the new president, from the campus the new life spread throughout the state and almost immediately Ripon saw an increase in the number of students. The Alumni Commons suggested by Dr. Hughes enables the school to board nearly all of the present enrolled student body. 1 he upper floors were remodeled into dormitories for men. In place of the old stoves and furnaces that formerly heated the buildings Ripon boasts of one of the best central heating plants in the middle west. The library has been greatly increased and the laboratories equipped with all the latest educational apparatus. I he group system of college studies was one of the theories of Dr. Hughes. Through it a college man may obtain the broader advantages of a college education and simultan- eously prepare himself for the special work of the professional school. Through the influence of Dr. Hughes the Ripon College credits were recognized by the University of Wisconsin, and Ripon students are admitted to the University under full credit. Lie was the first of the Wisconsin college presidents to obtain such concessions. Ripon credits are now recognized by nearly all the largest universities in the country. I he pre-engineering group recently installed by Ripon was the first of its kind in the middle west, being modeled after the undcr-graduate system but recently installed by Harvard University. In the student activity Dr. I lughes has been most strongly felt. 1 he honor system which has been so finely developed by Ripon was instituted by him. Under it the students have almost complete self-control. Athletics, too. have taken a firm, but clean hold. Ripon has been foremost among the Wisconsin colleges for reforms and rules in athletics .. «wcui coukjom A CM£SoM COiUGt t.MAW and through Dr. Hughes has striven for a complete organization of the colleges for athletic purposes. He has had a trying time. Despite almost complete discouragement, neglect on the part of alumni and friends, he never faltered, and always obtained the ends sought. His most earnest desire was a new gymnasium for Ripon, and he leaves with almost certain prospects of the culmination of his wishes within a very short time. When he came everything was barren. Ripon now faces a bright future. A new interest has been aroused in the alumni. Not only in the slate but throughout the middle west Ripon has become known and is recognized as a prominent factor in educational circles. New buildings will come; more students will come; and Ripon hopes soon to reach the zenith of its ambitions, to be a leader of the colleges of the west. Prof. Frank Morton F.rickson. ol the chair of Greek classics, is temporarily entrusted with the administration of college government, discipline and instruction. Prof. Erickson is the senior faculty member. He came to Ripen in 1895 after receiving the degree of A. M. at the University of Chicago. He graduated from Wabash College in 1892, was a student of A rchaeology at Athens. Greece, in I 900, instructor in Latin and Greek at Highland University. 1892-94. In 1901 he was appointed registrar of Ripon College, which position he has since held in connection with his other duties. Mr. A. G. Farr of Chicago has charge of the financial administration. As chairman of the investment committee and treasurer of the college, Ripon finances have made the most satisfactory showing in the history of the institution. Last year the actual income from investments fell only $8.19 below the book income and about $24,000 was invested in permanent improvements, the greater part of which is represented by the central heating plant. It was under Mr. Farr’s administration that the new system of accounting was installed, which is attracting attention of all accounting authorities in the United Stales. I he General Education Board has endorsed it as far ahead of any other system in the country for endowed institutions which necessarily look to the public for gifts and endow- ments. Mr. Farr is a member of the N. W. Flarris Co., bankers, New ork and Boston, and vice-president of the I larris Trust and Savings Bank. Chicago. No action toward the selection of a successor will be taken until after the annual meeting of the board of trustees in June. (;o. | M KNCKM K.NT I ! ns Edward William Clark. A. M. Dean of Men.

The Ripon College Senate, although a new departure in student government, has already made itself felt. Created at the instance of President R. C.

He is a tower of strength on defense and equally as good on offense. “Bull’s” happiest moments arc when he is under fire and he has never yet come away from the field feeling sore at himself. As this is his first year at college football, by the time he has completed his course his name ought to be firmly inscribed on the hearts of all Ripon men. i . vis Dave” needs no introduction to the followers of Ripon. He has been one of the mainstays of all of our athletic teams for the last four years, and we only wish that we could keep him for four years more. As a football player he has certainly made good. Tall and rangy, and with a good head, he has more than held his own at right end. and as a receiver of forward passes he has few superior to him in the State. Kt'TLKFI “But” came from Montello High School, where they do not play football, but in spite of his lack of experience he made the team in his Sophomore year. But is a combination of weight, speed and grit, and is in the game from beginning to end. Great things are expected of him next year and we hope that he won’t disappoint us. FINNEGAN “Em ’ is one of the finest examples of grit and nerve that we have. T hat he has both these qualities was shown without a doubt in the Lawrence game two years ago. But he has more than these qualities, as his work at end last fall proved, l ie was a 1 artar for the opposing teams and has won for himself the honor of being one of the best ends that Ripon has ever had. Pltl'TI I I utti.” who never says much, but goes right ahead and works, came to us unannounced, but it wasn’t long before we knew he was in our midst. 1 le showed what he was made of in the Beloit game and again in the Carleton game, where he took good care of his man. who was almost twice his size and weight. “1 utti” has three years more of college football ahead of him. ‘‘Rube’’ came to us with quite a reputation acquired at our Interscholastic meet last year in the football events, and he lived up to his reputation. What he lacked in weight he made up in his speed and dash. I le was a versatile man and could help out at almost any position on the team. HASSKTT AU ‘IIIAUTY Clint” is a typical example of plunging halfback. He carries the ball well, keeps his feet and. above all. is a sure ground-gainer. His work in the Carleton game last fall was a revelation. He is an earnest worker and quick thinker, two of the essentials of a good football player. “King” is one of those kind of players whose best work is not seen by those on the side lines, but is appreciated by those on the field. He is a hard worker and during his first two years on the team never missed a single practice. His work is always above par. and his example of self-sacrifice in the Marquette game two years ago is unsurpassed. It is men of this caliber that make winning teams. “Morey carries all the characteristics of his race on the football field with him and does net know what the word quit means. 1 le is fast, aggressive, and a sure tackier. He is handi- • capped by his weight, but this is more than off-set by his dash and enthusiasm. • •. r.. K!N«;sitri:Y ■■f A- - Mr «X. ' I '■ r- I’.KKD Rockey ' was the life of the team. His ability to hold the men together and to keep them jollied up when things were not going right was one of his best qualities and was one of the factors in winning more than one game. Although weighing but one hundred and fifty pounds, he was never outplayed at center during the entire season. 1 his was WallieY’ first year at college football, but he made good from the start. His lack of experience was made up by his speed and dash. His weight was a big aid to him in help- ing the backfield and in carrying the ball. i:KSKl«n:rj Rip was the find ol the season. “Rip” got his early foot- ball training at Kox Lake, where he played fullback. He was used at tackle all season, where he was a team in himself. He was a veritable stone wall on defense, while his work on offense was still better. With the experience gained this year “Rip” ought to fairly outplay himself next year. KOBKUTS I iO 11K “Witt” played left guard on the team and during the time he was in the game did himself credit. His work during the last half of the Carleton game was especially commendable and, with the experience he acquired last season, we look for great things from him during the next. SWA 1ST “Joe has been one of our old stand-bys since his entrance into college athletics. He captained the team and brought them through a most successful season. As a line plunger lie has no equal in the state colleges, and as a kicker he ranks with the best in the west. “Joe will captain the team next year and we are looking forward to another successful year. SWKTI.ANI • “Carlcy won himself a place in the hearts of all Ripon students by his earnestness and his good nature. His seriousness during practices was contagious and was a big help to the team. Carlcy” is bound to succeed and will be heard from again next fall. Three times All-Stale quarter is something any man could be proud of. Izzy somehow manages to be in the right place at the right time, and has been the big factor in three crack Ripon teams. I Ic has been the life and mainstay of Ripon football.

Elliott CAPTAIN JOHN DAVIS Ivo!) ? n:ix: im in. vij.hh.hh ifiistorif nf IKijJim I I was back in those days when the tall timbers and short grass were more in evidence than iron-lined skyscrapers that a bunch of backwoodsmen got an idea into their heads that something akin to education was needed to bring out the social life of the com- munity of Ripon. Oh. yes. it was on the map, but that was because it was a booming metropolis of some hundred souls who had somehow or other got stranded in this neck of the woods. It was mostly metropolis because there was no other habitation for many miles around. Education in those days was more conspicuous by its absence than the elements of Bostonism, and how under the sun those stragglers of humanity ever got college into their craniums is more than even our most illustrious alumni have been able to solve to the present day. But the bee floated over the hills and through the wilderness and the first semblance of learning appeared about 1850. Davy Mapes was the mainguy and pulled the pulley ropes. Says he to Allic Bovay, says he: “Allie, we are getting to be a right smart community and it’s about time we begun getting wise to the schoolin’ what the old man wanted us to take afore we started for th' golden west. Now this country is growin’ fast. There are more children every year. And they ought to have learnin’.” But what are we goin’ t' do? asked Allie, anxious like. Build a college, build a college. Erect an edifice in this wilderness that will be a monument to th ’town and to ourselves. Elold meetings and gel our names in print. Just think of the pride of our sons’ and daughters' sons and daughters when they look in th’ books and see where their daddies built a college. And then in th’ next century think how th’ studints will look up in reverence to th’ pictures on th’ walls of us who started things. Allie thought it was a good thing and he talked it over with Jed Bowen. Asa Kinney, Ed Lockwood, and Davey saw Mr. Northup. War Chase. John Horner and A1 Osborn, and they all thought it was good; and then they held several meetings in Asa’s kitchen and down around the village store. Several wanted it a college, some an academy, and a few a university, but they finally compromised in calling it the “Lyceum of Ripon. Kind of an exalted name for such a small beginning, but a collection of $350 and the plans for a new building had already started dreams of future fame in the minds of coming generations. ’ I was along in 1851 that it was decided to auction the institution off to the highest bidder. W. S. Brockway being the successful victim at 250 plunks. Allic then got busy and moved that the new institution be called Brockway College. A short time after. May 10. Davey Mapes put the charter under the corner-stone where it was safely sealed with a prayer by the Rev. Mr. Sherrill and speeches by President Dave Mapes, Allie Bovay. War Chase and Mr. Crawford. Well, along in January they figured up that the sum total of cost to Brockway College was $1.814.37. Wasn’t that cheap for the beginnings of a real college education for all of us studious mortals? Rocky road ahead! was soon sounded, and instantly it was discovered that the coffers had been washed away. This was in 1852. Like all good Christians, in its last no gasps it turned to church and in 1853 was turned over to the Rev. J. W. Walcott of Menasha. representative of the Winnebago Convention of Presbyterian and Congregational Churches. And like all good Christians it was saved at the last instant and pushed for- ward to fight a weary fight through another half century, to provide a humdrum existence for hundreds of poor unfortunate youths who never did any harm but possess an indulgent father and mother. Brockway College hit the rocky roads all right, though not with full speed, and later even proved a miniature battle-ground for playing at war. for the afterwards famous Iron Brigade during its recruiting days. But Brockway took too long to say and besides it cost too much money for ink and rubber stamps and. in 1864, seeing an opportunity to save both time and money the name was changed to Ripon College. This was too much for even the most staid churchmen, and seeing the unruly little school slowly cropping over the brow of the hill despite all attempts of circumstances to submerge even the little start, the Ecclesiastical convention, hoping to benefit the school, in 1866 gave it a free lance. Yes, Ripon is now on the map. 1 laven’t we had two championship football teams, three championship basketball teams, and three of the strongest track and baseball teams in the northwest in the last three years? Aren't we letting the people know we have a husky bunch of lively fellows over here who know how to beat the other fellow? Didn’t Ripon get five men on the all-state football team and three men on the all-state basketball team? You bet your life we’re on the map. Ripon is all there, first across the wire and a good nose to the front all the way down the stretch. m Annual nplmmmr-Jfrriilinuut Drbatr RESOLVED, Ihat a gun in the hands of a fool is more dangerous than the business end of a mule. • SOPHOMORE- Gentleman: A gun in the hands of a fool is a dangerous weapon whether wielded by a wise man or a fool. Now wc will take a specific fool. A gun in the hands of any fool is bad enough, but this fool is a bigger fool than most fools. He has a gun in his hands. He says it is not loaded. So? We have to take his word for it. and often a little more than that. Didn't know it was loaded. I hat’s the old story. He holes the gun in front of him, spins it around his neck, dangles it like a cow's tail in fly-time, and you can’t t:-ll whether he is going to fire it in front of him. to the side of him. or balance it on his chin and pull the trigger with his toes. You can watch a mule, keep away from his business end. but it would be a fine job to keep up with the antics of a gun-crazed fool. You can dodge a mule, but you could give Salome a handicap if you could dodge a business intended bullet. At his worst a mule m.relv clouts hard with his hoof, leaving the print of his shoe (though if a really, truly mule lie won’t be wearing shoes) on your side as a remembrance. But a bullet often provides acquaintanceship with his nibs of another world without even allowing opportunity to get revenge for that last game of billiards. FRESHMAN Gentleman: Wc will admit that a gun in the hands of a fool is a dangerous weapon and that some guns and some fools are more dangerous than others. But who e er heard of a mule that was more dangerous than another one? Now. from waht knowledge I have of guns, gained mostly from my room-mates talcs if hunting expeditions. I judge that it is hard to tell from outward appearances which end of the weapon is the most dangerous. In this one relation the gun is much akin to a mule, kicking just opposite to the way in which he is looking. But the real business end of a gun is the muzzle. I he real business end of a mule is always that part of its anatomy closest to you. You can tell at least to some certainty in what direction a gun is going to go off. I lowever. a docile, peaceable-looking mule, apparently munching a little fodder, is apt to let go in any direction. A gun sometimes goes off when not expected. But a mule always gets busy when least expected. You have got to lead a gun some time or other before it is dangerous: but an unloaded mule is a dangerous critter. Put an empty gun in a corner and in the future there may be a killing, but to put an empty mule in a stall spells trouble for the first person that shows up.

Sehaar and Shuart Chasers, say Other Classes But beware, girls! Don’t let Emma Brister or Carrie Nash get a peep at each other or meet on the street for some days to come. Both are reputed for their good nature, but politics knows no friends. The final count found them tied for honors for the most popular young woman of the class. Bet- ter toss up a coin, girls, and let it go at that. Iz .y Smith was far and away the most popular young man in the Junior class. At Last this was the result of the vote taken among the other three classes. Not another fellow was within mentioning distance of him. Now ain’t that Ira Par- ker the cute kid? He’s there, that fellow, winning class and Ira had a clear field in the counting. No. it wasn’t her fault. Because the members of the other classes wished to show their appreciation of good looks by deciding upon Miss Erna Zobcl as the best-looking young lady in the class, it is no reason why the pangs of jealousy should be publicly exposed. Joe Swetland is a big man. He looks bigger in a track suit than he does in his street clothes. He also lowK-d bigger to the school as a bluffer than all of his physically dwarfed classmates. Of course this vote does not mean to say that Joe never studies, but merely casts a suspicion that Joe can create a good impression by putting up a big front.

Just think of the fun for brother hiding in the corner when those champions of jolliers are telling each other their innermost secrets. Don’t you worry. Yes she is! Isn’t she tied for honors for being the most popular young lady? It lakes a jollier to be popular. Isn’t she voted the biggest female bluffer in the Junior class?

M. to 7:40 A. M. Hunk nf (Clirnnirl s—1010 IT came to pass that we. the children of 1910, set forth upon the second day of the week in the ninth month of the year of our Lord 1906, to take possession of a new land. And Dr. Hughes was ruler in that land. We came upon the College Campus a strong and mighty band, for our numbers were four score and three. Soon a great terror came upon us, our knees smote one upon the other, and we were sore afraid, for the tribe known as the Sophomores hove suddenly into sight. We girded our loins about us, appointed Arthur Scharr as our leader and went forth to war. The battlefield was the Bartlett coop and the battle waxed strong and hot. But Dr. Hughes, fearing we might entirely exterminate the Sophomore tribe, interrupted us in our battle, saying: Let peace be within thy walls. And we harkened unto his voice, and there was peace. And it came to pass that the Sophomores were invited into the land of Brandon to a great feast and we followed this tribe, even unto the door of the feastmakers. But we suffered great humiliation at this house, for some of our warriors were forced to cat soup, not as the Sophomores ate it. but from a dish in the middle of the floor. And their hands were bound. In our anger and chagrin, we turned from the tribe of Sophomores even unto our books. 1 he days of our labor were seven, and we labored from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof. And our blue books were a joy unto all our professors. The days for football came, and we said unto one another: We will send forth our mightiest men to battle. And we rejoiced that great men had risen in our midst, who were mighty in athletics: for it came to pass that seven went forth to battle upon the gridiron, and it was due to the valiant deeds of these seven that Ripon was awarded the championship in football. And verily the name of one of our tribe became renowned in the whole land of Wisconsin, because of a place kick- for the measure thereof was fifty and three yards. And the students fell down and worshipped our quarterback, for his name was also lauded in the land of Wisconsin. Three of cur number did battle intellectually against a barbarious people, known as the Lawrcntians, but it availed as nothing, and we were defeated. And in the month of June we laid away our burdens for the space of three moons and smiles came upen cur faces and verily our hearts were glad. But in the ninth month a summons went forth thro’ the land, and we were assembled together once mere and we were known as Sophomores. Now we found that our yoke was easier to bear, for verily the land was fair and comely, and the other tribes looked upon us with respect. And it came to pass that a new tribe came to the land of Ripon. and the name of this tribe was Freshmen. And again we went forth to battle, and again the battlefield was Bartlett cocp. This time we won a great victory and there was weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth in the tribe of Freshmen. 119 It came to pass that Professor '1 aintor. the officer of our tribe, gave a feast to our tribe. And there was great rejoicing in our midst; and it was a pleasure to look upon us. Now it happened in the month of June that the women of Bartlett took counsel among themselves, saying. We will summon all the tribe together in the parlors of Bartlett and feed them upon the fat of the land. At this time we will plan great achievements for next year. And it was so. But in the midst of the feasting the tribe of Freshmen fell upon us. and it came to pass that Professor Taintor stood midway between the two tribes and he was pushed back upon a chair, and great was the fall thereof. I hen the tribe of Sophomores waxed wroth, and we rose up in our might and smote the Freshmen hip and thigh and cast them out of the windows. And there was great turmoil in the land. 1 hen it came to pass that our sojourn in the land of the Sophomores was at an end. and our hearts leaped within us and we gathered up our possessions and went home. And lo! when we assembled again we were Juniors. Our faces looked many moons older and some of our tribe were miserable indeed, for a number of our brethren had gone forth from our midst to find other tribes. And great was the lamentations thereof. But we reasoned among ourselves, saying: Verily, we arc now of the tribe of Juniors. Behold we are second unto none, not even unto the proud and reverend Seniors, for lo! our number is greater than theirs. And yea, we will even surpass them in the greatness of cur achievements. And the faculty will rejoice and be exceeding glad. For verily I say unto you, we shall become very great in the land of our fathers—in the land which our fathers have given us.

THE following account is a realistic narrative of my own personal encounter with the demon of the sea. Such a narrative has never yet been written. Literature on the subject abounds, but it is invariably written in lighter vein—flippantly, irreverently. Even those who may have fought a like fierce fight have reported upon it with facetious triviality. Public comments made upon such conflicts, with unfailing uniformity, attempt to raise the laugh by jokes of mingled wit and grossness. It is. however, no mock battle in which one engages when lie comes face to bowl with the sea demon. It is a serious, solemn, and usually disastrous time, and ought to be treated, if not in religious phraseology, at least with a proper seriousness of word and solemnity of diction. “Hence, vain, deluding joys! Come loathed melancholy, of Cerberus and blackest midnight born In Stygian cave forlorn. ’Mongst horrid shapes and shrieks and sights unholy. It was on a Sunday afternoon. September 1st. at two o’clock, that I sat on the deck of the ship Etruria, looking off on the illimitable sea. watching the dancing wave crests, thrilled by the majesty and might of their increasing volume and uproar, trying to fix. to settle, for future use. the thrills which the magnificent spectacle had brought: when sud- denly, like another and more ancient mariner, I saw a specter, wierd and thin, hurrying through the flying spray toward me. Immediately, unseen by any eye but mine, he stood by me. In silent but stern tones he said to me alone, All is not settled between us.” Like the wedding-guest, I listened like a three-year-old child; the specter demon had my will. Quietly and without parting words. I arose and followed. With my eye fixed, like the steadfast eye of a bicycle racer bent on the goal, wary of men and women by the way. I moved forward and downward with settled purpose somehow and soon to adjudi- cate affairs which the specter called unsettled. 1 le moved directly to my cabin door and I. indirectly, followed and entered with him. I here upon my bowed face, in altitudes belonging to humiliation and penitence, with inward strivings and outward wrestlings. I waged the conflict. I conquered and he overcame me. 1'hen he overcame me and I conquered not. I here passed a weary while, a weary while. I hough the bitterness of the hour was made more bitter by the fact that, as with that other desolate mariner, no one could take pity on my soul in its agony, there was a grain of comfort next morning to know that I had not been the only man who silently followed the spectral steps of the invisible demon. Sailors by the score, stewards and stewardesses, bewailed, as I had, the day as a day of humiliation and fasting. But when morning came I gave over further futile efforts to thwart the enemy or to obtain any fixed convictions as to his future purposes. 1 hereafter, little by little I recovered strength, and on I uesday morning I ventured to the dining-room; but like the man who marched right in and turned around and 127 marched right cut again, no sooner had 1 ventured to go than I ventured to go back, hood I had none. Menus, menus all around but net a bite to eat. But I had conquered. I smiled within myself, and as 1 tottered up the steps toward the deck I said, Perchance it will assist me to remember these things hereafter. I his after all may be a matter of future pleasantry. 1 hose who told the story before have net been wrong. I, too. will laugh tomorrow. I was on deck again, quiet, undemonstrative, unshaven, but on deck. I heard indeed a rushing wind, but I cared not; when suddenly, unannounced and spectrally as before, my enemy stood beside me. Before I could say. Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? by sure but secret monitions he said to me. I here is something between us still. C ome down and have it cut with me. Again with assumed naturalness. I yielded. Again my eye was fixed ahead like the eye of an auto scorcher ready for any emergency. Again he led me to my cabin, and again I fell before him prostrate, like the pagan before a false god. The pathos of my moans and groans sank into my own heart hut not into his. I sank upon my berth; I rose and sank again, until at last in sheer exhaustion, accoutred as I was. I fell asleep. Wild was the night but a wilder night raged round the sailor’s pillow. Dreams, wild, wierd. fantastic, impossible dreams 1 had. I was back in my youth. 1 had the football in my hands. I was about to kick as in former days I bad kicked. I kicked, and my toes smcle the white wall of the cabin with a force like that with which Swetland smote the ball for a record in the game with Lawrence. 1 awoke, thinking my enemy was near. He was; and I had only one foot to stand on. Again I dreamed. I killed a horse. I killed two cats. I killed a wild hoar with a soft clawless paw like a lien’s. In my struggle with the horse I had the assistance of the Ripen professor of biology. I he other I dispatched alone. It was only when the wild bear laid his soft paw upon me that I awoke. I had indeed dispatched him. but there was punishment for me after his death, and I did not sleep again. It was during these wakeful hours when wretchedness was the portion of my pillow, that I found myself all unconsciously and silently repeating those appropriate and felicitous lines from Macaulay’s 1 {cratio at the Bridge. We were on board the Etruria. and by some fanciful association of ideas, the lines came to me. “But soon Etruria’s nobles felt their hearts sink to see, On the berths the wretched victims in the path of the dauntless sea.” So fitting were the lines as my muddled memory recalled them, that I smiled in the darkness- not indeed a light, trilling, frivolous smile, but the stern, grim, strained smile of a despairing man. who yet sees the cold, steel-like humor of the situation. It will scarcely he believed, vel 1 found a real though painful satisfaction in saying those lines over to myself. Morning came at length, but like the morning in Byron’s dream, for me it brought no day. I was still clothed in the garments belonging to the preceding day. Some good angel had removed my shoes; I had somehow shuffled off my coat and vest; but all the night I had rolled about in the starched dignity of stiff standing collar and flaring necktie. I could not rise. With the tip end of a moistened towel I took my morning hath. 128 still flat on my back. Kind friends said. “Come up on deck: it will do you good.” But I did not want to be done good. Others equally kind said, in their utter failure to appre- ciate the situation. “It is foolish to slay down here. Come above. But why should not a man who is making a fool of himself be foolish? So I stayed where I was. Howbeit, in the afternoon about three o’clock, the steward’s white coat stood in the doorway. “Aren’t you going on deck, sir? Better make a try. It’s always better on deck. All the rest are gone. There is only you and another lady down now. sir.” Shades of all storm-tossed mariners, had it come to this! “You and another lady!” So be it then, Mrs. Dombey must make another effort. I said. I will go. I arose and adjusted one shoe to its place, and with a sigh like Lady Macbeth’s in the sleep-walking scene. I sank back upon my couch without gathering its draperies about me or lying down to pleasant dreams. “I can- not go.” I said; and then, instead of the spectral demon who had haunted me, there stood in my doorway the phantom form of “another lady who dared me to stay where I was. Again I reared my head, as Satan reared his from his fiery bed: again I placed a shoe where it belonged, and again with the gasp of a dying man. I went down flat, and said. “I cannot.” I heard a movement in the corridor: someone was passing. I thought “it is the other lady going on deck.” With real heroism I stood on my feet. On went my vest; on went my coat, and then once more, like a craven. I crawled back into the tangled mass of sheets and coverlets. I closed my eyes saying. “It is good to be here. I will stay. Then came the final spur. With a cold, cruel smile I said to myself. “I am now the only lady below. And then I went on deck. J. F. I AINTOR. c Pfi 12° ♦Riyuti ilrrrbu itanlifulttraa?
