as on an anvil, lie felt that did
they alight on his head he was a
lost man. lie felt also that the
blows spent on the chest Of his
adversary were idle rs the stroke
of cane OH the hide of a rhin-
oceros. But how bis nostrils
dilated, his eyes flashed fire. Ken
elm Chillingly had ceased to be a
philosopher. Crash came his blow
how unlike the swinging
roundabout hits of Tom Bowles!
straight ite aim as the rifleball
Of Tyrolese, or a British marks
man at Aldershot-all the
strength of nerve, sinew, purpose,
and mind concentrated OH its
vigor- crash just at that part Of
the front were the eyes meet, and
followed up with the rapidity OF
lighting, flash upon flash, by a
more restrained but more disabling
blow with the left hand just where
the left ear meets throat and jaw
bone.
AT the first blow Tom Bowles
had recled and staggered. at the
second he threw up his hands,
jumped in the air as if shot
through the heart, and then heavi-
ly fell forward, an inert mass.
The spectators pressed round
him in terror. They thought lie
was dead. Kenelm knclt, passed
quickly his hand over TOMS lips,
pulse and heart, and then rising,
said humanely and with an air OF
apology:
"If he had been a less magni-
ficent creature, ! assure you or
my honor that | should never have
ventured the second blow. The
first would have done for any
man less eplendidly endowed by
nature, Lift him gently; take
him home. Tell his mother, with
my kind regards, that LII call and
see her and him, tomorrow. And
stop, DIES he ever drink too much
beer2"
"Well," said one of the villa
gers, "Tom can drink"
81 thought so. Too much flesh
for that muscle. Go for the near
est doctor. You, my lads good
off with you-on with:you, quick
No danger, butperhaps it may b
O case for the lancet"
Tom Bowles was lifted ten
dcrly by four of the stoutes,
men present and borne iuto his
home, evihcing no signs Of con
sciousness; but his face, where no
clotted with blood, very pale, very
calm, with slight froth at the
lips.
Kenelm pulled down his shir,
sleeves, put on his coat, and turn
cd to jessie:
"Now, my young friend, show
me Willis cottage"
The girl came to him white
and trembling. She did not dare
to speak. The stranger had be-
come a new man in her eyes
Perhaps he frightened her 81
much as Tom Bowles had done
But she quickened her pace, leav
ing the public house behind, ill
she came to the farther end of the
village.

Mr.. Hudson's long promised
"History of Journalism in the Uni
ted States is announced by the
Harpers. It covers the ground
away back to 1890, when the first
newspaper was printed in Boston.
Mr.. Hudson is one of the ablest
and most experienced of American
journalists, aud is admirably, fitted
for the task of collating all the in
formation about the American
press in its past and present condi-
ton. It seems proper that his
record should close just as personal
journalism is dying out with Ben
net and Greely, aud a new era is
opening.
