Mr.. Harcourt said that he sympathized
with Mr.. Cremer, but 10 make such pro
posals would not advance the object that
the government had at heart, namely, TO
diminish the great curse Of militarism In
Europe. The navy, he added, was dsfen-
sive and not aggressive like armies. The
supremacy Of the British navy was the
greatest element in the preservation Of
peace, as IL enabled Great Britain TO
stand aloof from European com binations
Mr.. Harcourt declared that he regarded

wAsHrEGToS, March 81. - When the
shrill voice OF the bailin cried adjourn
ment In the circuit court ysstsrday after
noon, the face of Madeline Pollard was
buried In her arms on the rough board
top OF the witness box, behind which she
had sat for three days The only sound
which had broken such a silence as
seldom falls on a courtroom was sob
bing that seemed TO come from her in
most heart.
Three Jurors were fun bling in sn un-
certain way with their handkerohisfs,
the Judge was staring toward the osil-
ing abstractedly. Even the lawyer,
whose cross-examination had led mp to
his passage, wore a look Of unwontsd
gravity on his fstherly, benevolent face,
with something remarkably like moisture
about his eyes.
II there was a man among the curious
hundreds In the courtroom unmc we'd. he
was inconspicuous In the majority Of
sympathetic faces Madeline Pollard
had been telling the most tragic episode
OF her unhappy life, that OF the disposal
Of her babies.

was the Saturday half-holiday, and he
should have been home several hours
earlier.
He increased his pace VIXEN he turned
into the street, which for three blocks
was the bottom of an architectural cam
yOn. its sides formed of solid rows of
houses, each exactly like the other. AS
he approached the centre house of the
middle block he felt for his latch key
and drew it from his pocket when he
turned TO ascend the steps. The key
dropped from his hand and he fell back
a pace, for cooling at him from the cor
ner of the little porch, a baby stretched
its chubby arms towards him and smiled
when the key jingled on the stone step.
Barlow's ftrst thought was that he had
taken the wrong steps, and he steadily
stared at the number painted on the
transom. The number was right and he
rapidly checked II off with the familiar
window curtains and the door mat. The

strange creature squirm and struggle its
way out OF the maze OF linen and fan

fui, screaming baby.
Barlow's explanation was incoherent,
for he. like the Major, Granger and
Simpson, was in state OF mental
chaos. The baby's screams brought
Bob, the colored cook and all-around
servant, from the dining-room, and his
black face increased the vigor of the In
fantile yells and deepened the scarlet
hue of its face to a purplish tinge.
A twisted-wire brooch which held the
little sacque al the neck gave the
baby's name as Joey" The Major was
seized with an inspiration. Swapping
his fingers, he said: Here. Joey here,
here, here" as he used 10 speak TO the
only dog he ever owned.
The other men felt an immense adj
miration for the Major. for joey sud
denly stopped crying. The minute OF
silence seemed an hour to the anxious
old bachelors looking down at the tiny
stranger.
Joey was strangely quiet. His mouth
was wide open. his eyes bulged. and a
rafting sound in his throat alarmed
barlow.

Barlow, as the baby leaned perilously
over the edge Of the doorstep. The lit

tfen for the first time in his memory
Barlow held a baby in his arms.
For several minutes he stood looking
up and down the street, but no one came
u help him. He pressed the baby to
him as he stoned for his key. and open
ing the door walked into the sitting
room with the baby under his arm, as
though 1t we're laundry bundle.
Hello, you're here at last" said the
Majcr, loosening the belt of his dress
ing-gcwn and reaching for a deck OF
cards. What kcpt-bless my soul, what
have you get there?"
The baby kicked its heels and struck
out with it's arms as though swimming,
for Barlow's hand was under its stom-
ach as he held II against his hip. Simp-
sou dropped the evening paper and stared
at the baby with his mouth open. Gran
ger forgot the blazing match which he
was holding over his pipe-bowl and II
burned to his fingers as he gazed blank
~ at Barlow and the kicking infant.
The oppressive silence was broken by
a sudden cry from the baby, and the
Major caught it by one leg just in time

Barlow dropped 1t when the cry came

CHICAGO. Sept. 25.-As evidence in n
case of assault and battery in Judge
Fosters court, a contract was produced
by which NJ. F. King sold his wife to
Henry Reuter- for $40 about year ago.
King net Reuter- on South Clark street
last night and struck him in the neck.
Reuter- resented the blow and both men
were arrested. Reuter- pleaded self
defense, and then King explained how
the trouble came about.
He said he sold his wife to Reuter-
for $40 months ago, and that the pair
had since lived together. After trying
single life again, King said he concluded
that Reuter- had not paid enough for his
spouse, but Reuter- refused to pay over
more money. King said he struck him
in a fit of Indignation. Reuter- denied
the transaction. The other man then
produced a thumb-marked contract, in
which the transfer was made and the
sum was stated, with Reuters sigma
