After my encounter with the three men in
the Rue Dauphine, rushed on aimlessly
through the snow, down one street, along an
other, not caring whittier went. I was for
the time incapable Of thinking connectedly
No friendship could have been closer than
that between Raoul and myself. Since our
first meeting, four years ago, we had literally
lived our life in common. He was in most
things my superior, but he himself did not
think so. Our confidence in one another had
been perfect thought knew him to the
bottom of his soul. Now that was forced tc
believe him O criminal, murderer-can you
wonder that it should have seemed to me al.
most as if the world had suddenly como to an
end-as if great, black gulf had yawned
open at my feet, and all the joy and beauty
Of life lay now and forever behind me?
Again the thought came to me, had done
my duty to my friend2 was doing it now.
Raoul was guilty; it seemed impossible tc
doubt it. But still, he was my friend He
had killed this man, but did know the
provocation he might have receiveds What
had I intended in placing the money and the
warning paragraph on the table, that he
might see them when he awol1es 1t had been
a way of saying, "Fly, escape, hide yourself
while there is time; cannot bring myself tc
look you in the face, but this much + have
done for you" But was that enoughs Should
not have gone to him and spoken
and urged him to fly? Should !
not have helped him out Of his danger
Might not the warning 7 had given be in
vains Might it not have come too late? Great
heaven, it had been too late! That man who
had stopped me as fed from the house,
had not realized the truth at the time, nor
till now-that man was an agent of police.
now that thought of it, he had said so!
Already Raoul was arrested, and through
my fault! 1despised myself; I execrated nv
cowardice; felt like the murderer of my
friend. At once, without moments hesita-
ton, turned on my steps and fastened back
to the Rue Dauphine

There seems to be no limit to the depths
of humiliation and disgrace to which the
Democratic party would drag the great
State of Ohio. When George Hoadly as
Governor of Ohio issued his Thanksgiv-
ing Proclamation last fall and omitted all
reference to Almighty God, the people
were shocked, but attributed his indiffeT-
ence to God to his political associations
in the Democratic party, but when the
Governor of the native State of Gen.
Grant refuses or neglects to notice, in any
way the death of the illustrious chieftain,
the horror of the people at the disgraceful
conduct of the Governor is supreme.
Ohio gave the country Grant, and Sher-
man, and Sheridan, and Mcpherson, and
a great number of brilliant military
lights, and now, when the greatest of
these falls, the mother State is as dumb
as silence itself When the Democratic
party comes before the people, in few
weeks, asking for their suffrages, this in
suit to the dead should be put at the party
in the most vigorous English. 1t was
reasonable to think that Hoadly did not
know God was living, but he certainly
does know that Grant is dead.

Since the Pail Mall Gazette published
its sensational disclosures regarding Lon
don life, the eyes of the American public
have been opened to some extent, regard
ing the dangers that surround the young
of our own country. To go into close
investigation of the state of society, to
90 behind the scenes, as it were, one is
appalled, at the dangers that lurk upon
every side for the tearing down of virtue
and destruction of character. Not only
are these dangers lurking in the person

pers, but they are brought to the very
homes of innocent girls, and all the cum

should render him an outlaw in society.
for all time. The man who has no regard
for purity of character, is not fit to be
recognized in respectable society, and the
man who, travelling through the country,
assumes that those he meets are of the
same stamp as himself, is only fit to be
regarded as an object of contempt. There
is system of corrupting influences at
work in this country. all the time, the
only result of which must be the filling
of the brothels, and the sowing of the
seeds of ruin and death on every hand

and begins plotting her ruin. 1t is always
the safe way for girls to ignore strangers
who are not presented by acquaintance
of good character. And it is never safe
to engage in firtations with a stranger.
There are many girls to-day who will be
happier in the near future if they but re-
member this fact.
