| 'flle Magnificent Adventure A Stirring Story of the Northwest. BY EMERSON HOUGH. (Copyright, 1023, by (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) The families of foreign ministers, arriving at the seat of government receive the first visit from those of tho national ministers, as from all other residents. Members of the| logislature and of the judiciary, in- dependent of their officex, have a right as .strangers to receive the first visit. No title being admitted here, those of foreigners give no precédence. Difference of _grade- among the diplomatic members gives no precedence. ‘At public ceremonies the govern- ment invites the presence of forelgn ministers and their families. A con- venient seat or station will be pro- vided for them, with any othar strangers invited, and the families of the national ministers, each tak- ing place as they arrive, und with- out any precedence “To maintain the principle of equal- ity, or of pell-mell, and prevent the 2rowth of precedence out of courtesy. the members of, the executive will practice at thelr own houses, recommend an adherence to the| ancient usages of the country of Zentlemen in mass giving precedence To the ladies in mass, in passing from one apartment where they are as- sembled into another.” And so on, through reams and reams of a strange man’s life records. Why should we care to note hi curious concern over details? The answer to that question is this— obviously, Thomas Jefferson’s esti- mate of 4 man must also in all like- nd | D.

Go on." ‘Therefore, even if Capt. Lewis does-go forward, he can only fail at the last. This is what is said by the federalists, by your enemies: “And perhaps by certain of my own party not federalists—by Col. Aarvon Burr, for instance!” Thomas Jeffer on smiled grimly. She spoke firmly and with cannot pause to inquire what my enemies suy, my dear laly. But in what way coull this affect our friend, Capt. Lewis? He is under orders, on my errand.

Ah, I see you smile! 1 might have known he would not. He said that nothing but word from you could induce him to hesitate for & moment.’ My dear young “apt. Lewis that n~ report from any source would cause me for an in- stant to doubt his loyalty to me, It unyvthing could shake him in his lady, 1 said to 1ihood have been curiously exact. H. did not make public to the world his judgment of Col. Aaron Burr, at that time Vice President of the Tnited States: but in his diary, writ-; ten in frankness by himself for him-: ~elf he put down the following: T have never seen Col. Burr till 1o became a member of the Senate., His conduct very soon inspired me iwith distrust. 1 habitually cautioned Mr. Madison against trusting 100 much. 1 saw that under Gen. W.! and Mr. Adams, where a greut military appointment or a diplomatic one_was to be made, he came post to Philadelphia to show himself. and in fact he was always in the market if they wanted him. He was indeed told by Dayton in 1800 that he might bo Secretary at War, but this bid was too late. His election us Viee YPresident was then foreseen. With these impre:sions of Col. Burr, there; never has been any intimacy between | us and but little association. A certain plan of this same Col. Burrs now went forward in such fashion as involved the loyally of Meriwether Lewis, the man to whom, of all others of his acquaintanc Thomas Jefferson gave first place in trust and confidence and friendship the voung man who but now was making his unostentatious departure on the great adventure that they two had planned. His garb ill cared-for. his hair un- kempt, his face w trifle haggard. working on into the day whose down ho had seen arise, the tall, zaunt old man set aside fir:t one minor matter, then another. Jeaving them all exaotly finished. down, for later forwarding. the item ‘of his own knowledge regard- ing the new country into which he had sent his young faieni. “T have received wrd from Paris that Mr. Broughton. one of the com- panions of Capt. Vancouver, went up the Columbia river 100 miles in_De mber, 1792. He stopped at a point | named Vaneouver. _Here.the river | olumbia is <till a quarter df a mile wide. From this point Mdunt Hood is seen about twenty leagues distant, which is probabl dependeney of the Stony mountains. — Accept ' my affectionate salutations.” lewis eived from his chief. the latter finiched it ‘which meant so much to him. He did not at Arst note the interrup- tion of his reverie. Long ago he had made public 'his anneuncement ! that the time of Thomas Jefferson | belonged to the public, and that he | might be seen at any man. He hesitated now ment, therefore, when old his faithful bla threw open Henry the door and stated simply that_there] was “a lady wantin’ to see Mistah Jeftahson.” “Wko is she. Henry?' inquired the President of the United States mildly. “I am somewhat busy today.” “Tain’t no diffreAce. she say— she sho'ly want see Mistah Jeffahson. The tired old man smiled and shrugged his shoulders., A moment later tho persistent ‘caller was ushered into the office of the na-| tion's Chief Executive. He rose courteously to meet her. it was Theodosia Alston. whom he | lad known from her childhood. Mr. | Jefferson greeted her with his hand | butstretched, and, her arm still in| his, led her to a seat. My dear” said he. “vou will par- slon our confusion here, I am sure. There are many matter: 2 i T know it is an intrusion, Mr.j Jefferson,” began Theodosia Alston again, her face flushing swiftly, “But You are o good, so kind. so great in your patience that we all take| sdvaniage of you. And yet you are| 0 tired,” she added impulsively, as | 0 caught sight of his haggard face. | 1 was not So fortunate as to find time for sleep last night.” He emiled again with humorous, half twisted mouth. ‘Nor was 1. “Tut, tut! sort of thing w ut her in silenc i dear, that| not de.” He looked tor some time. “Per- | haps, my vear.” faid he at last, “vou | come regarding Capt.

T had need to be very! blind had I not known long ago what 1 did know. T am, perhaps, the only confidant of Capts Lewis, and I re- pose in him confidences that I would venture to no other man; but he is not the sort to speak of such mat- ters. It is only by virtue of excep- tional circumstances, my dear, that 1 know the story of you two. She was looking straight into his face, her eyes mournful. “I was glad to send him away, sorely as I miss him. But then, you sald. you come to me about him?" , “Yes, after he is gone—knowing all that you say—because I trust your reat kindness and your chivalry T tame to ask you to call him back!

It is your right to believe that he and I were —that is fo say, we might have been—ah, sir, how can T speak?” “You_need not speak, my dear, I w.

But, since it was his mis- fortune to set his regard upon one so fair as yourself, and ‘since fate Zoes so hard for a strong man like htm, then 1 must admit it needed strong medicine for his case. I sent him away, ves. Would you ask him back—for any cause? In turn she laid a small hand upon the President's arm. “Only for himself—for that reason alone, Mr. - Jefferson, and not to change vour plans—for himself, be-. muse you love him.

She did not reply. After a time the President went on gently: “My dear, would You wish him to come back—would you condemn him further to the tortures of the damned? And would you halt him while he is trying to do his duty as a man and a soldier? What benefit to you?" She drew up proudly. What benefit, indeed, to me? Do {you think I would ack this for my {kelf? No, it was for him—it was for his welfare only that 1 dared t come 1o you.

Meriwether Lewis, having put be- hind him one set of duties, now ad- dressed himself to another, and did o with care and thoroughness. A few of his men, a part of his outfitting, he found already assembled at Harpers Ferry, up the Potomac. Before sunset of the first day the little band knew they had a leader. There was not a knife or a toma- hawl;of the entire equipment which he himself did not examine—not a rifle which he himself did not person- ally test. He went over the boxes and !bales which had been gathered here, and saw to their arrangement in the transport wagons. He did all this without bluster or officiousness, but with the quiet care and thoroughness of the natural leader of men. In two days they were on their way across the Alleghenies. A few days more of steady travel sufficed to bring them to Pittsburgh, the head of navi- gatlon on the Ohio river, and at that time the American capital in the up- per valley of the west. At Pittsburgh Capt. Lewis was to build his boats, toecomplete the details of his equip- ment, to take on additional men for his party—now to be officially styled the Volunteers for the Discovery of the West. He lost no time in urging forward the necessary work. The young adventurer found this in- land town half maritime in its look. Its shores were lined with commerce suited to a seaport. Schooners of con- siderablé tonnage lay at the wharfs, others were building in the busy ship. yards. The destination of these craft obviously was down the Mississippi to the sea. Here were vessels bound for the- West Indies, bound for Phila- delphia, for New York, for Boston— carrying the products of this di and little known interior, = O ooant As he looked at this commerce of the great west, pondered jts limita: tions, saw its trend with the down- Islant of the perpetual roadway to the sea, there came to the young officer” mind with greater force certaln Argus ments that had been advanced to him, He saw that here was the heart of America. realized how- natural was the insistence of all, these hardy western men upon the free use of the Mississippi and its tributaries. He easily could agree with Aaron.
