All doubt, all fear, was gone. Then, kneeling by my ^ojber's st<e? I ***** ^n a tone fremujpug ipom' joy ^bHe^he happy ;tears ran qow'n my face: " "I must go ^o them at once, mother.

I heard her murmur, "ho-v Fhall I tell him? How shall ! : re • t \) c news to him?" A jfltlm came into my eyes, and all my "?rs returned with terrible force. In 'other moment my mood had changed. •Mother," *aid I, in a savage, imparl nt tohe, "m the name of my dead falser, I command you to speak plainly to me!" Oh, Amos, my son," she asked, with infinite tenderness and pity, "are you. s • mg Enough to bear it?" Goon. My wife !" WCJ, not worthy of you, was not vorthy of my son! Ah, me." she. :noaned, wringing her hands. "Why did I bring her into this house? But she was a child then, and I thought her iunocent and pure." A strange calmness came upon me. "If you do not wish me to curse the tongue that casts a doubt upon my v.fe's purity, be silent, and Bpeak not another word. Ay, if an angel on this holy Christmas night said to me what you have said, I would curse him as he stood before me. I am going now to Mabel's house." / I made for the door, but my mother strove to hinder me from my purpose, crying: ''Stop, for mercy's, sake, Amos! Tour wife is not there." "I'll soe for aayoelf," I mattered, dog gedly. "I'll give neither. Mabel nor my child cause to throw reproaches in my teeth for lack of faith or love.- I'll stop to hear no more enigmas,"- 1 walked swiftly through the snow to Mabel's house, looking neither to the right nor the left It might have been the brightest summer's night, instead of the bleakest and dreariest, for all the notice I took of it. I kswefced Joodly at the door, and almost Immediately more loudly still, in a y impatience; and jMsestly I received a eoagfc greetls« In a voice thee was strange to ma.

But I am the owner of this house now, and have occupied it for . a year and a half, and no woman lives with me. Women! I have had enough of women! A false, brazen lot! You've got your answer, and be off with you! No wife of yours or any man's lives in this place, nor shall while I am in It." The window was slammed to violently, and I was left, dazed and bewildered, alone in the wintry night. There was no doubting the truth of the man's words, and I walked slowly back in the direction of our cottage of shells with a sort of dumb despair settling upon me. Midway I met my mother, who had toiled after me through the heavy snow. She was panting for breath, and looked inexpressibly sad and woe-begone, but I had no pity for her—indeed, no feeling whatever with respect to her. I was absorbed in my own grief and amazement at this unexpected shattering of my cherished hopes. I took her arm, and led her back to her home. No word passed between us on the way. She glanced up at me many times timidly, pityingly, imploringly; bui if her features had been carved in stone, her entreating looks could not have made less impression upon me. How bleak and drear the. night had grown! The wind chilled me to the marrow, and I trod the white snow with sullen steps, ft suited my mood to tear and deface it as I walked. What beauty for me was there now in the unstained carpet? I took a savage pleasure in marring its purity, and I dragged my feet through it vindictively, as though it were my enemy, and could feel the wounds I was inflicting upon it: In this way, and in perfect silence, we reached the cottage of sheila "Sit there," I said, sternly, to my mother, pointing to a chair. She Bat down obediently. "Now," said I, in a hard tone, "tell me everything plainly, and let no tenderness for me induce you to put a false color upon what you have to say, and I must hear Speak the truth without reservation, as you would on your deaU ly as I bid you." bed. If you value my love, do exact- I turned my face from her, and stood thus while she told her story, keeping a strong restraint upon myself, steeling myself, as it might be* and. speaking only necessary words, though It was hard to do; but you who have sustained heart-shocks will understand my feelings and what torture I endured during the recital. CHAPTER XI. H E neighbors," said my mother, "began to talk soon after you • went away. Before that they always spoke well of you, but now their tongues were all against you. I couldn't makP if nut, and I quarreled with them for slandering you. And when they told me you had a wife in another country, I threw the lie into their teeth, and asked them how dared they set their tongnes to i t Oh, we know what sailors are!' they said; 'and your son's no better than the rest.' Then it began to be whispered about—how shall I tell yoorhotp-shell I tell you?— it began to be whispered about that you laid a base plot to ruin Mabel's character; and those I quarreled with—I did not use gentle words to them, you may depend—became more bitter than ever, and said worse and worse things. I MW* upon some of the back-biters one )^ day,-aad saw Mr. Druce among them I held say breath; I had heea waiting to hear this name. "But he walked away, and would have nothing to say to me.

I knew if X did so that, she would break down, and she bad not yet come to that part of Che' story which I burned, yet dreaded, to hear. Life and death hung upon her words* "But where was Mabel all this time?" I said, coldly. "She was at home to give this man the lie." < "No," answered my mother; "the day after you left, Mabel went into Jhe country to her mother, and I did not see her for a great many weeks. 1 have lost count of the time, Amos, but it must have been quite three months before I saw her, and then I did not see her to speak to. Before she came back all the mischief had been done, and I was not on good terms with a single soul in the neighborhood. I can't teti you how unhappy I was, all alone as I was, and with my son that I loved so far away. Well, one night I happened to hear that Mabel and her mother were at home, and without waiting a moment, I ran to the house " She paused again, and passed her hands across her eyes, striving to recall something which bad slipped her memory. I did not help her by a word; even when she held her trembling hands imploringly toward me, appealing to me by that action for even the slightest sign of encouragement, I made no movement. There was no room in my heart for compassion at that time. She continued, but in a weaker and mure uncertain voice than before. "Forgive me, Amos," she said, humbly, "but it is hard for me to remember what came after that. You will know why presently, and then perhaps yon will pity me. I went to the house, and saw Mabel's mother outside. Amos, she { waited till I got close up to her, and then turned her back upon me, and slammed the door In my face. At that, of course, I went away all of a tremble, thinkics that Mabel would come to me. I stopped at home till ten o'clock at night, but Mabel didn't come. I didn't know_wh»t to think. I couldn't make out the .eason of her keeping away; she ought to have run, to me:the moment she came home—you know that, Amos. If she had loved you " I interrupted her sternly. "Go on with your story, and tell it straight Never mind what ought to have been done. Let me know what was done." "Waiting for her who should.have come, but didn't, was driving me mad, and I couldn't abide it any longer. Late as it was, I went to her house again, They were not abed, as I could tell by the light, and I was going to knock at the door, when, happening to peep through the window, who should I see in the room, with a glass before him, but your enemy and mine, Mr. Druce. Both Mabel and her mother were with him, and they were talking together, as the best of friends might do; and Mr. liruce was sitting there as Ihwifii ha had a right to be in that place, and as though he did not Intend to go away in a hurry. Amos, if I could have found heart and strength to knock at the door, I am sure they would have turned me from the house. But I had no thought of anything or anybody but you, my son, away on use your enemy was laughing and Joking with her who should have spit in hts face for daring to speak to her!

The time depends as every one knows upon tbe phrase of the moon, but just the rule of computation is not always understood. Blaster is always the first Sunday after the pasehal full moon which haprens upon or the next after March 21BL If the full moon happens on a Snnday, Easter is the Sunday after.—Ex.

Electricity Is the most shocking discovery yet made. It will shock the most braxen-faced men or women the dark. V in •*— If this thing keeps up, a state,of oelligerency will have to be recognized between the American correspondents now in Cuba. ' WHh a full-fledged king on its staff, that New York paper may manage to print a little truth. "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." Never bear more than one kind of trouble at a time. Some people bear three kindB—all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have. An Oregon pioneer haa sent Major McKinley a tomahawk, but the Major will not need It in his business during the next four years. No kind of hawks are needed. A Tennessee womw wants to legislate the collar button out of existence. That's tfce trouble with the collar buttori. It's already non-existent nine times out of ten when you want it From the manner in which Mr. Lexow tackles the tobacco trust it is evident he thlnka that where there is so much smoke there must be some fire. Ife aieo intimates tbere U a good deal of water. / A member of the South Carolina legislaiiusjppoposes to wring a few dollars out of labor by imposing a tax upon washerwomen. It is a scrubby sort of a statesman who would iavor a law of that kind. An Eastern exchange says a scientist has discovered that the earth will be dead In three hundred millions of years from now. Whether it will be tofallr annihilated or just dead, like Davp B. Hill, is not stated. With a delicacy of expression that almost entitles the man to. a full realisation of his wish, a veteran of the Civil War, who was wounded while running away from a Confederate force, declares {that he believes himself entitled to a pension because he received his hurt "while marching rapidly in front of the enemy." , A smile is as sheep as a frown, has occasionally turned out to be worth vastly more In hard cash.

W H I T ' TIBIi,thelasti>f the great s c h o o l of Americas poets that made the last quarter of a oenfury brilliant, a^ked me in the White Mountains one morning a f t e r prayers, in which I had grves out Cowpere famous hymn about "The Fountain Pilled iwith Blood," "Do you really believe '.there Is a literal application of the blood of Christ to the soul?" My negative reply then is my negative reply now. The Bible statement agrees with all physicians, and all physiologists, !and all scientists, in saying that the ;blood is the life, and in the Christian ;religion it means simply that Christ's 'life was given for our life. Hence all ithie talk of men who say the Bible '.story of blood is disgusting, and that •they don't want what they call a ^'slaughter house religion," onty shows their incapacity or unwillingness to look through the figure of speech toward the. thing signified. The blood that, on the darkest Friday the world >ver saw, ooaed, or trickled, or poured from the brow, and the side, and the ;hand§, and the feet of the illustrious sufferer, back of Jerusalem, in a few 'hours coagulated and dried up, and forever disappeared; and If ;nen had defended on the applicatiou ol the literal blood of Christ, there would not have 'been a soul saved for the last eighteen centuries. • ' In order to understand this red word of my text, we only have to exercise as much common sense in religion as we do in everything else. Pang for pang, hunger for hutfger; fatigue for fatigue, tear for tear, blood for blood, life for life, we see every day illustrated. The act of substitution is no novelty, although I hear men talk as though the idea of Christ's suffering substituted for oar suffering were something abnormal, something distressingly odd, something wildly eccentric, a solitary episode in the world's history; wlien I could take you out in this city, and before sundown point you. to five hundred cases of substitution and voluntary suffering of one in .behalf of another. -..^^, "> * ; At 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon go among the places of business or toil. It will be no difficult thing for you to | find men who, by their looks, show you ithat they are overworked. They are prematurely old. They are hastening rapidly toward their decease. They have gone through crises in business that shattered their nervous system and pulled on the brain. They have a shortness of breath and a pain in the back of thehead^ and at nigh£ an insomnia that alarms them. Why are they drudging at business early and late? For fun? No; U would be difficult to extract any amusement out of that exhaustion. Because they are 'avaricious? In many cases no. Because their own personal expenses are -lavish? No; a few hundred dollars •would meet all their wants. The simple fact Is, the man la enduring all that fatigue and exasperation, and wear And tear, to keep his home prosperous.

But she goes right"V,on, looking carefully after his apparel, remembering his birthday with some memento, and when he is brought home worn out with dissipation, nurses him, till he gets well and starts him again, and hopes, and expects, and prays, and counsels, and suffers/until her strength gives but and she falls. She is going, and attendants, bending over her pillow, ask her if she has any message to leave, and she makeB great effort to say something, but out of three or four minutes of indistinct utterance they can catch but three words: "My poor boy!" The simple fact is she died for him. Life for life. Substitution! About thirty-six years ago there went forth from our northern and southern homes hundreds of thousands of men to do battle for their country. All the poetry of war soon vanished, and left them nothing but tKe terrible prose. They waded knee-deep in mud. They slept in snow-banks. They marched till their cut feet traoked the earth. They were swindled out of their honest rations, and lived on meat not fit for a dog. They had jaws all fractured, and eyes extinguished, and limbs shot away. Thousands of them cried for water as they .lay dying on the field the night after the battle, and got it not. They were homesick, and received no message from their loved ones. They died in barns, in bushes, in ditches, the bussards of the summer heat the only attendants on their obsequies. No one but the infinite Cod who knows everything, knows the ten thousandth part of the length, and breadth, and depth, and height of the anguish of the Northern Jind Southern battlefields. Why didAhese fath- Lars-ieave their children end go to the | front, and why did these young men, postponing the marriage day, start out into the probabilities of never coming back? For the country they died. Life for life. Blood for blood. Substitution! But we need not go so far. What is that monument in Greenwood? It is to the doctors who fell in the Southern epidemics. Why go? Were there not enough sick to be attended in these Northern latitudes? Oh, yes; but the doctor puts a few medical books in his valise, and some phials of medicine, and leaves his patients here in the hands of other physicians, and takes the rail-train. Before he gets to the infected regions he passes crowded rail-trains, regular and extra, taking the flying and affrighted populations. He arrives In a city over which a great horror is brooding. He goes from couch to couch, feeling of the pulse and studying symptoms, and prescribing day after day, night after night, until a fellow-physician says, "Doctor, you had better go home and rest; you look miserable." But he cannot rest while i no m#ny aro nuffering.—On and on, unisaac, and th*Jftn^0q& just in time et as a S U 4 n r o v l d e a ^ r a m o f t ^ e quakes and. recoils snd,,greens at the horror^i, ... ,<, All good men have for centuries been trying to- tellowhonu -this Substitute was like, and every comparison, inspired and uninspired, evangelistic, prophetic* tanMtolic^Aftd human, falls short, fori^^ristwgi.thP.O'^ Unlike.

There stood the old Hougomont Chateau, the wails dented, and scratched, and broken, and shattered "by grape-shot *and cannon-ball. There is the well in which three hundred dying and dead were pitched. There is the chapel with the head of the Infant Christ Shot off.' There are the gates at which, for many hours, English and French armies wrestled.

Are there no public libraries, no Carnegies in Australia? For w h a t do you suppose is the very choicest novelty for an Australian? Nothing more nor less than "a literary lounge," a book arcade, "where everybody Is welcome." Plenty of chairs, the reading of a million books on the shelves, string band playing in the afternoon and evening, and light refreshments on hand! The idea may well tickle the bookworm who browses in small, stuffy bookshops or is absorbed into the British museum, but it sounds queer to all who possess Carnegie libraries galore; while as to the Boston citizen, he simply pities anybody who hasn't a card to "his public library." However, "light refreshments" and a "string band!" That does savor of money-getting attractions for the surging crowd's, who must always be TSntfertatnefr * • # * white in the pursuit of mental pabulum. A "literary lounge" Bounds fetching, and is original. 8tori«« Btfom th« Qrand Jury Rua From Food! to Puniahmant af th« Ruto Breaking Convicts. The grand jury investigating t h e Armstrong wardenahlp of ihe Michigan state prison Friday morning divided its time among the doings in the warden's residence, the halt ttd which the saate board of corrections and charities brought him in his punishment of prisoners and the workings of the s t a t e pardoa board. Ex-Convict Peter Lamarind, Convict Benjamin and Convict Smith, all of whom worked in the prison residence, testified that boxes were packed with chickens, eggs, extract of beef, canned' goods, bottled delicacies and other fancy groceries bought from Carlton & Windt and shipped to Armstrong's daughter after she took up her residence in South Bend. Smith is the colored cook of the prison household. He said: "The old njan came out to m e after this affair had blown up and said: 'Well, Smith, they've got me falling. I'm going to fall hard. But I'm a —— if I'll drag anybody down with me.' "The Saturday night the old man was arrested he and his wife walked the floor all night. Mrs. Armstrong drank nine cups of clear black coffee so fast that I began to think I'd need a bicycle to get "em to her quick enough. One day a little while after that she came out into the kitchen and danced a regular barn dance, best hoedown I've ever seen since I came from the south. She had heard nomc good or other." "The missus is the one with the brains in that family. She knows more in a minute than Armstrong will all his life." Dr. Dayton Parker, member of the state board of corrections and charities, was asked about the irvestigation made by the board into methods of punishment imposed at the prison and the subsequent order abolishing the cruelest form of it. "When we were considering the plans which Armstrong had framed up and asked an appropriation of $200,000 for the new cell block and other improvements," said Dr. Parker, "we struck on the head which finally developed our order for the abolition of the so-called stringing up punishment." "'Let's see your punishment cells,' we said to the warden. "'They are filled today,' he replied. " ' S o much the better, that's just when we want to see them.' " 'Then you will have to see the deputy warden,' he said. "We did, and found that Armstrong had ordered men handcuffed with their hands manacled behind them and then strung up with chains to the sides or doors of their cells. The little doctor, Dr, Pray, told us that he had to stand over the men and watch to see that they were not punished past the limit of human endurance. "We called Armstrong in. and he defended (he procedure, He said he considered it conducive to discipline. We pointed out that solitary confinement or a good spanking would do more; that this sort of thing was cruel, and further that it defeated the very end he aimed al—it made each convict in punishment think he was a martyr, and encouraged him to hold out as long as possible. Then we ordered the warden to discontinue it." "Did you hear that, he got the idea for it f ^ m the Detroit house of correction?^ Dr. Parker was asked. "Well, he claimed that, but I hardly think the claim correct. We never investigated the house of correction on that point. We trust Supt. McDonnell. I think he just shoves a man into a dark cell and leaves him there to think it over." Opponents of vivisection are not likely to find serious fault with the I phase in which it presented itself at. J Hubbardston, Mass.,-the other day. A five-year-old girl, who had lost eight! inches of skin by scalding, lay at the j point of death, and surgeons cut a sec- j tion of cuticle from a pig and grafted I it. upon the wound. Was not that bet- j ter than cutting skin from human be- j ingR? The outcome of the case is uncertain, but it would have been equally uncertain if the contribution of cuticle had been made by schoolmates of the unfortunate girl. The bureau of statistics of the department of commerce and labor reports that the returns at the close of 1908 indicated a notable improvement. \ in business, with normal conditions ac- j tually shown in many cases. The situation has continued to improve since, I And it will not be materially affected by the little flurry in the stock market, although a good deal of water may b« wqteezed out of some swollen s»cur1- ttot. The 8pring Elections. There is absolutely no general interest in the approaching spring election, and if it. were not for the local option fights in a number of the counties, the vote would probably be the smallest cast in ihe state in many years. There is no discussion on the state ticket at the capital. In the counties where the liquor question Is to be voted on, there is naturally a great, deal of interest, hut it is confined to the one proposition. Some of the incidents in the liquor fights are laughable. In many of the counties the Anti-Saloon league distributed cards offering a reward of $50 for any evidence which would lead to the conviction of any person offering money for a vote "against local option." This the liquor people have bettered by putting out a card making the same offer in rugard to a bribe "for or against" local option. Mark S. Simonton, a. wealthy farmer of Leroy, Mich., who was reported to have committed Htiicide by drowning himself in the river at Leroy, was picked up by the Kalamazoo police in a confused condition, unable to give any account of his wanderings.

NOW THE FATHER OF THE WO MAN HA8 DECIDED TO HELP IN DEFENSE. KIDNAPERS IN PA. JAIL .I0YLE15 A H D E -h~ •>\ Latest Reports About tha Boyis Woman and Her Connection With thy Whit I a Cas«. James H. Boyle and Heten Boyle, alias Faulkner, was indicted by the county grand Jury in Cleveland Thursday, charged with blackmail. The charge is based on the payment ot th€ $10,000 ranaom by James P. Wbltla for the recovery of his son, kidnaped by them. Willie Whitla late Wednesday afternoon identified the two suspects as "Mr. and Mrs. Jones," who took him from school in Sharon a week ago and kept him a prisoner in the Granger house, a first-class rooming house in Cleveland, until ransomed. Mrs. Boyle, who was the "nurse" in the Whitla kidnaping case, WRB formerly Miss Anna McDermott, aged 22, of Chicago. William McDermott, a retired member of the Chicago fire 4epartment, is her. father. When shown a full description of the woman he broke down and declared that it was his daughter. He and his family had been hoping against hope that there had been some mistake in the identification., Mr. Mc- Dermott's story of his daughaer's life is; that of a wayward girl. Anna, according to her father, was, as a child, one of the prettiest, one ot the- brightest, in the ueighborhcod. She was given every possible advantage of education and careful moral training, but as she approached womanhood" -»he fy»H into company of which the old fireman did not approve. Quarrels were frequent, and about three years ago Anna eloped. Since that time her history has been a blank to her Chicago kin. Even the name of the man with whom she cast her fortunes was unknown to them. They carefully read from day to day the story of the kidnaping of Willie Whitla, of his return to his parents, and the arrest of the "Boylesi" but vthey, never dreamed .of connecting "Mrs.' Boyle" with^ winsome, headstrvongf Anna, w,ho haft, degfceted-. her home to follow, unknqwp.jmthB.

Reports from Mexcer are $ a t Miss. Boyle idmltted to a correspondent that site waa Anna McDermott and that her father was jVHHam McDermott, q£ Chicago. According to the correspondent the young woman, when told that her father was in Pittsburg and had retained a lawyer to look after her interests, said: "I'm tired and sick of the whole business. There is no use denying it any longer. I am Anna McDermott and my father is William McDermott, of Chicago. "I have told many lies lately, but now I will tell you the truth. Yes, he is my father." "My early education," continued Mrs. Boyle, "was received in the public schools and later I was sent, to a convent in Wisconsin. What was its name? Well that is not necessary. My mother has been dead for several years. I really am Mrs. Boyle. WTe were married three years ago. No, we have no children, but I am very fond of little ones. "Afraid to stand trial? No. When I go on the stand and tell my story it will throw an entirely different, light on the kidnaping episode. Until then I would ask the public to withhold its judgment. I want you to correct one thing for me. In no way am I related to the Whitlas or Buhls in Sharon. "I mean to stand by my husband through this affair. T do not know what his connection with the whole dreadful thing is, but I am sure he was not the instigator of the kidnaping plot. I will not say whether ho had any knowledge or not." WIRELETS.

Frank Jones, another of the posse who £scapsd, boarded a train at Pierce and went to Checotah, bearing some details of the battle. The officers, having heard that t h e , Indtfss and negroes were again peaoe-'t able after the battle of Thursday: morning, approached the cabin of Harjo, near Hickory Ground, without fear, As they were entering the chief's yard 20 gunB were leveled upon them b y - a s many men in thehouse and around the corners. Odom and Baum fell doad and Swift was seriously w_ounded. Jones ran a few yards and hid himself in a clump of trees until the Indians disappeared. Then he hurried to Pierce. Within,,30 minutes after the report of the battle reached Checotah a hundred men were armed. Every available gun and practically all the ammunition in town were taken. In an hour 50 men were marching toward Hickory Ground. A dispatch from Checotah says that the Snake Indians have been purchasing rifles and ammunition for a month and that they a-re supplied with poWdelr and lead enough to last them two days. Harjo, who has so often within the past two years expressed his displeasure at the restraints of law and has often called his men into council on that account, ia believed to have determined to make a firm stand in behalf of his ideas of liberty.

Thus it was that the presence of.the captured fleet and the method of its taking were unknown to the'country at large. Seattle extended all consistent courtesies to the vanquished; but it afforded little balm.

S Y N O P 8 I 8 . "Vanishing Fleets," a story of "what might have bapp«ne<V opeiuj tn Wa«blogton with the united States and Japan near' war: Guy Htllter, necretary of the British embassy, and Miss Norma Roberts, chief aide of Inventor Roberta, are Introduced as lovers. Japan declares war and takes the Philippines. Guy Hllller start* for England. Norma Roberts leaves Washington for the Florida coast. Hawaii is captured by the Japs. Ail ports are closed. Tokyo learns of missing Japanese fleet and whole world becomes convinced that United States has powerful war agency. England decides to send a fleet to American waters as a Canadian protection against what the British suppose is a terrible submarine flotilla. Hllller Is sent with a message. Fleet mysteriously disappears. The kaiser is missing. King Edward of England is confronted by Admiral Be vine of the United States. The Dreadnaught, biggest of England's warskips, is discovered at an impassable poilt in the Thames. The story now goes back to a time many months* before the war breaks out, and Inventor Roberts visits the president and cabinet, telling of and exhibiting a metal production. This overcomes friction when electrified and is to be applied to vessels. A city for the manufacture of the mysterious discovery is built. The mystery of true levitatlon la solved. Roberts evolves a great, flying machine. The cabinet plans a radloplane war against Japanese. The start for the scene of conflict with a large fleet of monster airships la made with Norma in command. The Japanese fleet, believing Nippon supreme, suddenly discerns the radioplane fleet. After maneuvering the airships deseend, and by use of strong mugnets lift the airships, one by one, from the Bea. The trip to the west coast of America is then commenced. Because of a partially disabled radloplane, one of the warships is dropped into the sea after the men are transferred to another. The vessels are deposited in a mountain lake in the United States to await peacvt CHAPTER XIX—Continued. "Men," he said, "I take no credit for the result, and I'm big enough so to report to Washington. This battle brought out three heroes. Brockton, Jenkins and above all this little girl, Norma Roberts." His "God bless her!" was lost In the tumult. They were men intoxicated with the wine of victory. They yelled themselves hoarse. They patted one another on the back, hurled their caps into the air, and finally formed escorts of honor to conduct the men and officers of the fleet to their cabins, asking over and over for details of the fight. And even as those tired fighters went to rest, in a city across the continent newsboys were crying their extras through the streets, and the citlaens of a great city were asking ortb another how the night had worked its miracle. A lounging patrolman In Ravenna park, which bordered on Lake Washington, had sleepily rubbed his eyes as the svm was tinting the everlasting snows of the Olympics, and had conae to a sudden stop, leaning against a tree and wondering if he was still asleep; hut with his knuckles he could not obliterate the floatfas vision before him. He convinced himself by a lusty hail: "Hello, out there! What are you doing? Get off that lake!" and hack to him there volleyed a storm of objurgations in an unknown tongue. Not until he had called a fellow officer and rowed a boat round those fallen monarchs of the deep did he learn that they were captive to his 'country, and then, elated with the news, he hastened to impart it. But this was not the only surprise for Seattle. For* some clays preceding troops had been pouring Into the port, and it had been the general belief that they were being mobilized preparatory to embarkation for the Philippines or Ttplll Oh this morning, however, tfetra waa an exodus. Nearly all the troops had disappeared In the night. Likewise there were strange happenings in the telegraph offices. When men went to consign messages they were met with the Intelligence that t h * wires were in charge of military operators, that nothing could be received for any point beyond the borders of the United States, and that all messages without exception would be censored before transmission. The newspapers fumed and roared, until they learned that, all incoming news would pass uninterruptedly; but that for purposes known only to the government the story of the presence of the Japanese fleet would he closely guarded for the time being. For once the Post-Intelligence, the Times' and Star united in attacking the. administration. ' > « : r - . " C H A P T E R X X . What Befell the Emperor. Like a lonely rock that has withstood the fury of a storm and the battering of the seas to emerge a.galn into sunlight, the president felt his time of justification approaching. His hour of triumph was at hand, and his prayers were being answered; but the ta^k was not yet done. The unqualified victory over the Japanese fleet made the outcome of telegra£h_ communication, and the peuarttrre from the'key'Vas also under COTST of darkness. Again there was a resemblaaoe to the Japanose affair, in that the appearance of the radioplanes created surprise and consternation on the warships. Hero, however, the similarity ended The Anglo- Saxon mind knows no such thing as surrender whdn once ft la stirred to tho depths of Its'stubbornness. It can read oply two answers to the riddle of conflict—victory or death—as has been attested by many a hard-fought battle on land and sea. The armada of Great Britain had sailed with apprehensions, being fully cognisant that it was invading a territory of mystery and danger, and the vigilance of its watch, therefore, was never relaxed. The consternation caused: by the first sight of the aerial fleet was immediately followed by a hurried clearing of the decks for action, . although defeat in a battle against such overpowering odds waa a foregone conclusion. No gun was fired, however, and all stood expectantly awaiting a declaration of Intent from the monsters of the air which had come upon them lu the full glare of the afternoon sun. With slow and stately majesty the rad lop lanes . approached, each flying the flag of the United States and beneath it the emblem of truce. The Dreadnought, answering sluggishly to the swell and hurling great cascades of water from its bow, was In the heart of the formation, and in its ponderous might seemed fearless of anything afloat. Toward it the foremost radloplane directed its course, drop- The W i r e s Were in Charge of M i l i t a r y Operators. the war a certainty; hence it. was with patience that the administration waited for the next move in the far east, which must of necessity come China. There was no doubt that she would assist her ally. At first this seemed an imminent action; but. several days passed bringing through the secret service no news save that her fleet, huge and well manned, was making preparations to sail. The president, knowing that for the accomplishment of his purpose oriental power must bo broken, indulged in the fervent, hopo that the attack might come soon. There was less trouble Internally, as the people were beginning to have faith in the administration, though they were speculating ag to what course of procedure was being followed. It was while affairs were in this condition that the sailing of the British fleet was duly announced through secret, channels of information. The coterie saw before it the necessity of either abandoning the hope of teaching China a drastic lesson and announcing its Secret, to the world or meeting tho Rritish squadrons and holding them hostage in the interest of peace. Thoy chose the latter alternative, and thereby was caused the strangest, chapter in the history of war. Like that other sally outward to the western seas, this one was timely. It was made when the British fleet might Le met beyond the reach' of wireless ping steadily down until full abreast and on a level with the great fighting tops, while the officers of the battle ship watched with amazement its splendid control. Npt till then was there a visible display of life aboard it. A port opened and into the blackness of its frame Bevins emerged, while directly behind him stood the scientist, who had recovered, and was to witness the first full demonstration of the power he had evolved. On the bridge of the battle ship the British admiral stood, surrounded by staff officers. "Good afternoon, admiral," the American hailed. "Glad to see you. How do you like the looks of us?" Across Fields' face flitted a half smile. "We are very well indeed, Admiral Bevins; but can't say we are particularly glad to see you, of sure that we like you until we know more. Clever invention that. Must have been conceived by an Englishman." Behind the United States officer n withered little figure became imbued with a sudden frenzy of passion that threatened to interject an unpleasant, remark; bm i'evins checked him with a laugh and grew serious again. "Admiral," he said, "my country isn't at war with yours. You understand that." Fields looked relieved, and lost somewhat of his air of set defiance. At the head ojf his men he'erossedjo ,tht end of the bridge where ho nnr^fct be nearer thefts* jaddreaalng him. Ifce nervous straiiTot, tejo situatjop waa fcelag rapidly dfcoiaiaied. "Frankly, I'm gl*4>- to. be reaaaured," ,he , replied. "There-are a rot*f sWags, We'd rather know,*'" :f . ' - • . ; "And which \ shall he glad to sixplain if you and* a dozen of your immediate subordinates will come aboard aa my guests." The Invitation waa Immediately accepted; but it was a trying interview for the Britons. Tho machine on which they were received was the Roberts, which waa the latest production of the plant on the key. It was larger than Its predecessors, und Jjad been made tho most pretentious. It was elegantly appointed. Amidships it contained a drawing room on which the most careful workmanship had been lavished. The guests gathered round a huge mahogany table, whose polished tup reflected the light from the, colored ports of the dome, and were served with refreshments before Bevins recurred to the object of his visit. He drew from his pocket an official packet and laid it open befor him. "Gentlemen," he began, "of cou.se ywu are Interested in all that you have seen, and in the attitude of the United States. What I shall read to wou are my orders. I have come out here to meet you for the purpose, fln»t of all, that you may bear them." The Roberts had ascended to an altitude above the others of the American fleet, and was resting in mid air. It was very still, the light hum of a small dynamo from behind the partitions being the only disturber of silence. He opened the document und read: "You are instructed to intercept the British fleet and assure its ofiicers of the good will of the United States toward his majesty, King Edward VII., and all his subjects. You are to explain to them that the United States is compelled, In pursuance of its adopted policy formulated at the commencement of the war with Japan, to maintain the secret of its power until such time as It is deemed expedient to announce it to the world. You will then endeavor to induce the British fleet to surrender itself into your hands as guests of this country, assuring those in command that all damages accruing will be repaired by the United States. You are to use all due caution to avoid injury to life, property, or pride, and to transport the entire fleet to the waters of Chesapeake bay, after which for a brief period the officers and men of Great Britain will be entertained by the United States." Bevins stopped and looked into the faces confronting him, which expressed a variety of emotions, running the gamut from stolidity to wonder, and from compliance to indignation. The British admiral's visage was a frowning one. "Your country asks too much!" he said, almost explosively. "And really it volunteers no explanation of its acts or intentions." Some of his companions nodded their heads in approval. "We can't accept." Bevins reopened the parchment. "I must then read you the concluding clause," he said, and began: "It is strongly desired that there be no clash at arms; but in any e>ent you are to return with the fleet." There was brief silence in t^e room, which was broken by Fieljs, who jumped to his feet. Bevins sose, and the other officers did likewise. The situation threatened unhappy conclusions; but Bevins held up a restraining hand and went, on: "Here! Before you underestimate the force of this last clause, let me give you a demonstration of what we can do and how difficult it would be for you to offer any defense or effective resistance whatever." He turned to a speaking tube, gave a curt order and requested his visitors to look through the transparent ports, which were suddenly opened beneath their feet. The Roberts swept up into the air to such a prodigious height that, the internal pressure against her shell became terrific. Sha was at such an altitude that no mortal being could^have withstood the Arain, In great circles she descended, until the water again became visible, then the vessels upon it, and last of all the crests of the waves. Now she swooped lower, and then at a speed ot nearly 600 miles an hour whipped a straight line close above the tops of the fighting masts, slowed down, and whirled in and out, about and above the British ships as easily as would a swallow in playful flight. On the decks of the vessels men stared in wide-eyed amazement, at this demon of the air, at first, fearing that control had been lost and the lives of those aboard wore in jeopardy. Then at the splendid exhibition of speed and handling they were dumbfounded.

The brass band and free commissary had, departed atanjr with, the boomers' and the real •lattaatlon was mournfully apparent. There dida't setfrn to be the ghost of a reason for a town where "Royal Capital" was trying to stand. The lot -owners, however, were game. They organized a commercial club, issued air castle literature and invited capital to come and get richer on the "ma?Oiificent resource-*." The fact that the commercial club was expressing its hope rather than its knowledge was clear as moonshine t o the sage gentleman of means who received the invitations. One day a unique traveler alighted o n the small platform and handed his grips to the landlord of the "Continental hotel." He looked like he might ke a walking proclamation for some liafterdashor, and didn't seem to be a tiopeful prospect. Within half an hour tho news went around town that "Ar ilhnr Van Zandt. of West Virginia" was registered at the Continental, and that h e lisped in his talk. In the morning the ienderfoot put on some heavy boots and walked out Jo the "suburban residence districts1 When he returned in town he hunted sjt|> some of the owners and in a timid mutt of '.vav wanfed to know whwt he \ * r • could secure a few acres of their rocky blutta at, exyioiniug that he was a slate pea/3*! luaa^factqrer ta»a,em a 11 way, and tfot he fancied the stone would make fair pencils. He wanted the privilege: to prospect a little flratr and determine whether the rock wfta really aoapatohe.

They let1 him dig his holes, and several parties let their h*l<ffngg ' o t "eligible residence lots," tjie .Circulars Hald—rock hills, in fact, pass over to the slate pencil man at $5 ac* acre. Some sold to him for less. Insider of a week he had acquired enough "soapstone" to make slate pencils for all the children in the world the next hundred years. ^ , When Corney learned the high-collared baberdasher'B sign had been boring holes, on Killkeany Heights his blue eyes blazed wrathfully. "If that puddin' headed jude thinks he's1 goln' ter git them lota fer his shlate pincil facthry he's a bigger fool thin km looks, which be puttin' it sthrong as I know how." said Corney. He studiously avoided the mild-looking Btranger, as being a man beyond his contempt. He resolved if Van Zandt come around with a flve^dollaran- acre proposition "fer them superbs ter tell 'im plain wat I tink av *im." But one bright morning Corney saw the slate pencil man making for him, "Good morning Mr.—aw—" "Try Cadogan, aw," said Corney, surlily. "Yes, Cadogan—certainly. Deuced funny how I should—aw—forget such an easy name." "Not so viry funny; there be min wot says 'aw/ win there's nothin' ter 'aw' about. Thot's funnier." The natty tenderfoot smiled sweetly. He was evidently not overly sensitive. "Unfortunate habit of mine," he said, goodhumoredly. "You will—aw —excuse me—please pahdon me,* "Wot's yer game?" remarkedxCorney, abruptly. "I wanted to speak to you about Killkenny—aw—Highlands." "Thim's Killkenny Heights—risidence lots." "Yes, a beautiful name. I've been out there. The view is—aw—chawming. Such a vast reach of country— so gently rolling like the sea! And such superb air and sky, and the sunsets— on my life I never witnessed such sunsets!" Corney looked at him ra amazement and gravely shook bis head. ! "I guess they be," he said, dubiously. "I think th' sun be settin' ivery day.

Van Zandt started and looked keenly al the Irishman. " - . . , '"wnaV'do yoii Want for your 27 acres?", he asked,.slowly. "Th,' only thiug thot'll save me fr'm bein' a. grass widerer," said Corney, "Li $6,(M)0." . "I'll take it." Corney's blue eyes popped open wide. The slate pencil man suddenly became an object ot real, interest. "Does yez mane fhot?" • "Indeed I do, and I will write you a check soon as you sign the deed." "Thin I wants ter say ter yez thot I'm downright sorry I called y e i a jude. Yez be th' whiteAt mon I've sthruck in this miserable coyote cunthry." With the acquirement of Killkenny Heights, Van Zandt concluded his dealings at Royal Capital, and the cat jumped out of the bag. He was the representative of a large concern, and had been sent west to secure new fields. The rock around Royal Capital was specially adapted for the purpose, and its purchase for an almost nominal consideration meant a fortune to the big company, which soon established works out there, and gave employment to so many men that Royal Capital forgave the job put up on it by the smooth visitor from West Virginia. Corney and Van Zandt returned east on the same train, and while enjoying their pipe and cigarette; -respectively, one afternoon, Van Zandt asked a question which had long been puz- .zling hfin; , "Coifney, how was it that you were the only man out there who knew it was,cement rock?" "Bliss'yer soul," said Narah's man; 'Tnever dreamt it till yez told me." "But you said 'there's a fine lot of cement to pick over out there.' " Corney smoked reflectively for a few moments, then his moonface broke into a broad grin. "Yez didn't quite cotch me waning,"' he said. "Narah, my wife thot is, lives on th' coast of Jersey. I knowed If I didn't git backrIt Wouldn't quite break her heart, because there's a foine lot o' saymin ter pick from out there." "Seamen?" "YiB, sayntin, I says." !/Corney," said Van Zandt, arte* some silent meditation, "If any professor of language ever offers to smooth out that brogue of yours, you brain him on the spot. You need it to do business with."

Hartford Insurance Man Has an Unusual Experience. Hartford, Conn.—Though nobody ever accused William A. Moore, first vice-president of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company, of beifcg a spiritualist or a member of any of those kindred cnlts, nevertheless Mr. Moore's former incredulity is staggering under a remarkable psychological vision and a weird conversation which he thinks he had at. the moment that his friend Richard P. Romaine, president and general manager of the Windsor Locks Paper Company, died recently. Mr. Moore is vainly seeking an explanation of the marvelous phenomenon. Just before closing time Mr. Moore, having signed h i s mail, w a s dozing on a couch in his private office, when he was suddenly aware of a familiar voice calling appealfngly: "Will! Will!" • -, "Who is it?" he asked. "It's I, Romaine," cfcrne t h e reply, in short accents. Bewildered, Mr. Moore shook himself together and searched his office, and then, bursting open the door into the main office, had the telephone operator hurry a call to the Romaine home. When he asked for Mrs. Romaine h e w a s told tHiit sho could not answer just then, and ho inquired how Mr. Romaine was getting along. "He died about : t w o minute* ago," replied t h e maid.

"The money of the saloon is tainted money, tainted with crime, tainted with sin, tainted with corruption, yes, covered with the blood of ioimoratl souls," he said. "There are many meu in this city engaged in the saloon busiuess who are nauseated with its evils. They are bound hand and foot but they cannot break away from it, though willing to give all they possess for the opportunity of making an honest living. "Among the enemies of the saloOo in this city are the men whose shop doors are closed on Suuday while others are allowed to be open, but the most powerful of its foes are the home, the family, tlxe child. If you could hear the prayers that are going up to God from little children the next ten days for the abolition of the saloon and asking to be rescued fn a the great curse of liquor; if you could hear them pleading with Christ, if a little one would take you by the hand, look into your face and say'-Won't you help me just a little?" where is the man who would turn away? "Won't you help these little one* by your votes? There is coming a day either of salvation or damnation for the children. What will you men do? Here, in the name of Jesus Christ, whose humble Shepherd I am, with all my heart, with all soul, for the little ones who cannot talk to yon themselves, I implore you not to bind the saloon evil to their necks again." — Michigan Catholic.
