ordinance, United States Army. is not
to be allowed to rest with the verdict
of the coroner.s jury eXonerating Miss
Fiagler. Assistant District Attorney
Tsggart is quoted as saying that the
case will be brought before the grand
jury, which is now in recess until
September 9 h.
Miss Flagler is in private sana-
tarium in Baltimore in condition
bodeling on nervous prostrat:on.
Her friends say that as som as her
physical condition will permit she
will return to Washington to answer
any charge that may be brought against
her. The statement of Juryman
Dorsey that the phraseology of the
verdict was changed after it had been
presented to the coroner, for tie
purpose of shielding Miss Flagler, is
denied by the coroner and Miss Flag
ler's counsel. They say that the form
of the verdict a. returned was lncom-

coroner himself so as to properly ex-
press the intent of the jury and 10 the

rings upon his arms were fused, the as
scgai handle which lay near was literal
lY shiyered into threads, and when
took hold of his arm it seemed to me
that every bone of it was broken.
The men with the chief stood gazing
silently, while the women walled.
"Great is the magic of Indaba-zimbi, y

and struck him heavy blow with the
kerrie in his hand.
"Greater or not, thou dog, he shall

thou singest his praises so loudly"
said nothing, but thinking it proba-
bic that Indaba-zimbi had shared the
fate of his enemy, went to look. But I
could see nothing of him, and at length,

started back to my wagon to get q change
of clothes. On reaching it was rather
surprised to see strange Kaffir seated
on the drivine-box wrapped up in a
blanket.

the blanket, and with great deliberation

they want to kill me. Well, l thank you
for the hint. We shall meet again be-

and not too soon, for just then some
men came up to the wagon.
On the following morning started
homeward. The first face saw on ar
irving at the station was that of 1ndaba-
zimbi.
GLOW do you do, Macumazahn!' he
said, holding his head on one side and
nodding his white lock. 81 hear you

seeing that my people wanted to kill
me for exposing an impostor."
CHAPTER III.
I make no apology to myself, or to
anybody who may happen to read this
narrative in future, for having set out
the manner of my meeting with Indaba-
zimbi; first because it was curious. ard
secondly, because he takes some hand in
the subsequent events. If that old man
was humbug. he was very clever one.
What amount of truth there was in his
pretensions of supernatural powers 1t is
not for me to determine, though | may
have my own opinion on the subject.
But there was no mistake as to the ex-
traordinary influence he exercised over
his fellow natives. Also he got quite
round my poor father. At first the old
gentleman declined to have him at the
station, for he had a great horror of
these Kaffir wizards or witch-fnders.
But Indaba-zimbi persuaded himthat he

Christianity and challenged him to dis
