Kit Alexander had been warned seY

pliDe and was at length reported to the
head master, who gave him a final
warning. One night not long after Kit
was again caught in mischief, and he
felt that this time be was ''in for it. >
A fogging by the doctor was no joke
and Kit determined to make what prep
aration he could that the wind might
be tempered to the shorn lamb.
On rising the next morning he put
90 first his undershirt, then a layer Of
stiff brown paper, then his jerseys, upon
these a sweater and over all clean
white shirt, borrowed from his chum,
whose clothing was two sizes larger
than his own. Lastly he put on his coat
and vest.
It was a very hot day in June, and at
morning intermission Kit whispered to
friend: "I'm nearly stifed. I hope
he'll give it to me now"
But the doctor said nothing, and Kit
went on stewing until dinner time. He
felt half inclined to dispense at least
with the sweater before afternoon school,
but fear of the DOCTORS cane deferred
him.
All through the afternoon he suffered
untold misery, hopping his face until
his handkerchief would mop no mora
But at length, just before dismissal
came a messenger. ''The doctor would
like to see Alexander in bis study"
On entering the study the boy saw
the supple, snakelike cane lying on thu
table.

rhAcKERAY WAS ANGRY.
rhs Sailors Who Intended to Play Tries
Changed Their Minds.


Once upon a time the daughters oS
Thaokeray saw that good man thorough,
" and heartily angry-angry to tic
point of profanity. 1t was during theis
Italian journey, when they were re-
turning to the ship in Genoa harbor afs
err day on the shore.
Eve had to be ON board at certain
sime,'' Mrs. Richie says in her Mao
milan paper, $50 that we engaged
carriage and drove quickly to the quay,
where the convicts, olanking in their
chains, were still at work. a boat was
found, rowed by some sailors, who GER
tainly did not wear chains, but who
were otherwise not very unlike those
industrious oQnyiots in appearance. The
bargain was made, we all five entered
che boat, and as we were getting in we
could see our great ship in the twilight,
looking bigger than ever, and one rock
st and then another going off toward
the dawning stars.
:" 'They are signaling for u.s. said
one of our companions. We shall soon
be on board.
'We had pulled some 20 strokes from
the shore by this time when suddenly
the boatmen left off rowing. They put
down their oars, and one of them began
talking yolubly, though I could not IN
derstand what he said. What's to be
dons?' said one Of the young men to my
father They say they won't go on I'M
less we give them 90 francs more, and
he began shaking his head and remon'
strating in broken Italian. The boat
men paid no attention, Struggling their
shoulders and waiting as if they were
determined never to row another stroke
Then the steamer sent up two more
rockets, which rose through the twi-
light, bidding US hurry, and then sud-
denly my father rose up in the stern OF
the boat where he was sitting, and,
standing tall and erect and in an anger
such as / had never seen him in before
or after in all my life, he shouted out
in loud and impatient English, D.
you, go onP simple malediction which
carried more force than all the Italian
polysyllable5 and expostulations of our
companions. To our surprise and great
relief, the nell seemed frightened; they
took to their oars again and began to
row, grumbling and muttering. When
we got ON board the ship, they told us

timent over this particular case has
been very great At the last moment
attorneys were secured in the hope Of
bringing about another trial for the

that she is insane may bring about the
end desired. Back Of ii all, however,
is simply the sentiment that white
woman should not be hanged.
With no further explanation Of the

be regarded as nngallant in thus hght-

calculated to make the entire com

but the two women got together, and.
as subsequently proved. carried
through their plans. Friday night,
June q, just after the family had eaten
supper, Mrs. Mobiles said that somebody
had been stealing corn from the crib.
She urged Mobiles to go ont and lay in
wait for the thieves. He had been plow-
ing all day and said he was very tired,
but finally she persuaded him, and went
with him. The negro Gus, with a hat
Chef in his hand, was concealed behind
some bushes near the crib. Sure enough.
corn was found sprinkled on the
ground. The old woman had, II de-
yeloDed, put it there herself While
the old man was STOPPING down looking
under the crib, Gus crept up stealthily
and dealt him several blows with the
Ratchet, Telling him to the ground. The
old man turned and groaned and
4 seemed struggling for life. The woman,
/ who thirty-four years before had stood
\ at his side before the marriage altar,
grabbed the bloody Ratchet from the
hand of the negro and dealt her hus-
4 band what is believed to have been the
4 fatal blow. Calling to their assistance
4 the daughter Debby. who had crept
I near TO witness the affair, and negro
named Dalton Joiner, and FAMILIES
wife, they set about disposing Of the
body. They carried it through the cot
ton patch to the woods about 200 yards
distant ard there dug a shallow hole
for its interment The hastily impro-
vised grave was too short. sc they
crushed the legs against the body and
in that way pushed it into the grave.
Dirt and straw were thrown In upon
it and the place was smoothed over so
ais to hide, If possible, all evidences Of
the crime The old man was missed.
The old woman was so guarded in her
talk about him that the people began
to be suspicious Searching parties
were formed, who finally. through the
aid of a swarm of flies and several buzz
yards, came upon the spot where the
body was uncovered.
The negro Gus at once told the story
Of the crime. The old woman. being
confronted with this, acknowledged
that she had paid the negro $40 TO kill
the old man. and gave as a reason that
he was constantly Fostering her. 1t was
with great difficulty that the neighbors
were prevented from lynching all Of the
parties then and there, but they were
finally conveyed to place Of safety.
In order to save the lives OF these
people-that is, from the hands Of the
people who wanted TO take the preroga-
tive Of the courts unto themselres-the
Judge gave assurances of a speedy trial,
and special term OF court began its
