ONA SHELDON was making' Iho lAlropean tour; hireiliicnflunwas li Dialled nnd alio and her motlier bad spent tlie last two years iu IravuliDf.'.
'/.onti'n motlior was a aeallhj wi.low, au.l Zuua was nu unly Jhild. Her rpa.ling nud culture had jiven zest to ber Irovflu, nnd she had andcrelood as well as sceu.
The ini]iortoQt luliject uu.lor diFOus- (ion on tbe Oololier morning which oriogsthcm to onr notice, is an invita¬ tion to bu present at n wedding in the aorth of England.
Bnt here was a dilemma. Mrs. Shcl- 3on wss so indisposed ns to be unlit for the juurnoy, yet she did not wish Zona to stay nt home.
Unhappily, among ulher ideap, p^ haps 11 littlo erroueuusi, Mrs. Sheldon had a llrm belief tbat it wus a perilous undertaking to travel in a compart¬ ment car, uuless llierc were so many passengers that thero was no possible danger of assault.
"I don'l wnnt yon to consider mo nt all, /iona," said her mother, "I am not ill, only just indisposed enough uot to feci able lu take suob a journey. You know Mrs. Oannet will take good care uf ine. II you will only promise uot tu go into an empty comiiartmcut, 1 think I can rest easy."
"Very well, mother, I will promise you that," said /oun.
Morning saw our heroine at tbe King's Cross station anxiously sosu- ningthc carriages to make sure of one well Slleil, and at least one or two ladies in it. .M last she saw one Ihat met her requirements, and slippinc n coin into the hand of the guard she entered.
Tho Irain steamed out of the station i.nd Zona touk a surruy of hoc fellow travelers. There was a fnmily—father, mother and three children, nn elderly lady, two business men, and in ono corner a mau whom she did not par¬ ticularly notice.
Sho took out her fonntiiiu pen and a sheet of paper aud wrute : ".\11 safe ; compartment full." At the first stop¬ ping place sho gave it to Ihe guard and the busy wires carried it to her mother, setting at rest hor fears.
And nuw /oun, who Was a good traveler, settled dowu to enjoy herself. Fur awhile she luoiied ont of the win¬ dow, admiring the Hying landscape. Then she produced n book and began to rend.
Anon a new licnFntion stirred within ber; shn drew out her dainty little wntoh and looked at il. Twelve o'clock nud twenty minutes. Two hours since sbo had starteil. She laid iluwu Ihe book nnd opened the littlo lunoh liaskel, then sho drew oil her gloves, tucked them iu tho pocket of her jacket nod began to eat. The man lu the corner took this opportunity to read the title of ber buuk. "Bigelow Papers." "1 know she's mu American," ho thougbl. "I cnu tea it from the tip of her no«e to tho toe of her little huut."
/oua,all unconscious of his scrutiny, I'lnisbud her dinner, rotnrncd tc her bouk, au.l I must u.lmit, fell asleep for o while. She did not knuw when some of the uther ucoiipiinls uf Ihc comparlnii'Ut got uul, aud nliuut -1 o'clock sho was ruuhod by hearing the mother of thu family my ; *'\Vuko U|i uuw, Tillio! Wnkoup! We get uut at the next station."
Zona luukcd nliont with a start to sec the ilcluber day darkening down nml renli/.o thnt when llio fnmily party should loavti tbu traiu, sbo nud the inau iu Iho corner would be Ihe ouly occiipiinis of the cuiupnrtnicut.
Hereupon occurred a strange thiuK- Zono, wliu had never before felt n foar iu triivelint{, began to recall nil her inolhcr's stories with wbiob sbo wus wont to fortify hor thourios uf the daugers of triivoliug in comparlnieni oars.
l'"..r n moment Zona was po'scssed Wlih nn lusauv desire tu scream, nul ouly by n ttrong eflort ciutrulled her lelf. The man in Ibe corner, who U|i to this timu bad uot moved from his neat :ill day, now rose and walked tu the ctUat.. <kid of thu car. Zuon Ireml'led wilh fonr. He ronihcd under llie seal sud luuk out n smnll hand- salohi'l, wliicli he upeiio.l. Was hv goirf; to got n revulver? Xu, it woil'd I',; It kuife, n revulver wuuld mnke too much notice. Mi" watclied him ivith Insciuaied oyis. He touk uul tome tbiug smnli ui..l slipped It into ilio pocket of his coat. Suun he ruse again nnd snuDtcred lu the lar rnl uf thc nar. He lit n iapcr, bent duwu au.l was engaf(cd in sunifcthiug —whal was if? /ooa pill Ler hnnd Iutho wir.duw auil mndo a de-ii'ralo elTort tu upeu il, that she iii'rht be roady to call the gusrd. Ill" null hear.l nn.l Inrned; he cim'.i i!ii::'kly forward: "Allow me, " lie '.Ild.
'•Oh, uo, liinnk you," soil Zona bantily. Hho kit huro be bad designed ber imrposo nu.l Ihat there was a co¬ vert nonace in hit t.ine.
Ho «elt!u.i .iu«ii in his corner njjniu, and Zona cast furtive kUucos at hini, and olw.iTs y...c:i ,\:c looke.l lu witly .Irew h'. jjiuc from htr.

was near ho woul.l bo likely to make the Dest of hii lime, nn.l attack hir immediatelv, nr whelher he miiibt perhaps n'oaodon his purpose nlto¬ gether. Ko thnt, as I sai.l, sume time had elapaeU in tbu iincertniuty when she laid :
"1 dun't know, sir. "
"You have uover been in thin pnrt of the couutry before," he said tenta- tivilr.
She answered in brief monosyllablet to tbis aud several uther remarks, nnd hc, perforce, relapsed into silenct.
"Ho wauls to make nie talk nnd throw lue oft' my guard." tbuugbt Zonn, again attoiupting lo u.iou tbe window, ond this timo with success. Soon the dnrkness increased, nnd the hollow tumbling tuld lh.at tho train bad entered n tnnnel. With the echuos thnn.lering in her curs. Zona's iiervo..? efrained tu catch nny nunn 1 uf motion mnde by ber cumtiinion. All at onoe sbo felt II i-h<rp sting, nml n shriek from ber iniuclod wilh the veil of tbe engine, ns it gave vent tu ita joy nt omers;in.^ iuto thn daylight again. Tho man was nt her side.
"I beg p.irdoo lur intrulin^; are yon hurt?" he nskc I nuiioualj.
Zjun thought his nniiuly was causod liy fenr iest the guar.l might hnve heard ber sorcnin. .\t Ihc same time i^ho became ouuscioiis that tho pnin wai in her right oyo. .K cin.ler frum tlie open winduw had ludoed iu il. "II you wunid lot me," siid tbo stranger, producing from bis pocket a hnudker- cb'ef.
"Chloroform I" flashed through Zona's brnin, and she shrieked oul. "No! don't come near me. '
"Poor thing I" thought Iho wonld-be Samaritan. ".She must suffor dread¬ fully."
Then aloud "I am turo if you would ouly—"
"Xo, I lell you," said Zons, veho- mcntlr, witb a stamp of her fool.
The man subsided into his corner and Zona, with her eyo fast swelling, bitterly repented her temerity in inking the jonrney.
"I'll never travel alone again ! Oh, dear I I don't suppose I'll ever travel at all again I I have lanc;hed nt dear mamma, and thought ber fussy. I ought to have considered that she knew the world better than I."
Vnd tben came a long whistle. The mnn in the corner rose, snatched his satchel, the guard unlocked tbe door — "Newcastle, ma'am; you're at your journey's enl, ' and he picked up ber valise.
Will Zono Sheldon ever again kaow such a sense of relief, or will any uther face ever be so weloumo to her as was that of tbe burly guard, as be made tbis announcement to her? She was safely on tho platform, and a coachman narrowly watching tho pas¬ sengers, stepped up to her, saying "Mr, Mowbray's carriage for Miss Sheldon. '
"I am sbe," sho f.aid, in a voico which her mother would nnt have rec¬ ognized.
"Lot rao have your valise, then," said the coachmnu, extending bis hand.
He opened tbe door, and Zona,etep- piug into the carriage, sank bnck ou tho cushions and burst into bysteriual tears.
Tho man wbo bad been in the cor¬ ner, stauding with satchel in his hand, gave n low whistle ns tho sight met hia gnzo through tbe window. Walking forward to tbo coachman bo said, "Oive roe o lilt, Riley; 1 guess I'll ride wilb you."
"All right,    Mr.   John,"   said   tbe coachman,    lifting    up    the   satchel. "Como down from Edinbro, sir':'" .Vol directiv, Kilev.    Let me down

"Oh, yes; do let me get up upstairs a while!' 1 had a dreadful time I I'll loll you all nhiiiil it."
