Strelsau; for in Strelsau was Osra and
he would not be anywhere else in the
world. And when he had arrived
there he went TO a sergeant of the
kings guard and prevailed on him by
present Of three crowns to enlist
him as a trooper and this the SER
geant, having found that Lord Harry
sword, agreed to do. Thus Lord Harry
became a trooper in the guard of
King Rudolf, having for all his pos
sessions, save what the kings stores
afforded him, few pence and the
golden pin that had fastened the hair
of Princess Osra. And nobody knew
him, except, Solomon, the Jew, and he,
having made a good profit, held his
peace, both then and afterwards.
Many day Lord Harry mounted
guard at the palace and he often saw
the king, with the queen, ride out and
back, but they did not notice the face
OF the trooper. And sometimes he
saw the princess also, but she did not
look at him, although he could not re-
strain himself from looking at her,
but since every man looked at her,
she had grown accustomed to being
gazed at and took no heed of it. But
once she wore the ruby necklace, and
the breath of the trooper went quick
and eager when be saw it on her
neck, and sudden flush of color
spread over all his face SO that the
princess, CHANGING to glance at him in
passing and seeing the color beneath
and through the dye that stained him,
was greatly astonished, and she refined
in her horse for an instant and looked
very intently at him, yet she rode on
again in silence.
That evening there came to the
of tho l<incr'S crI1ard Tuoit-
ing woman, who asked to see the
trooper that had mounted guard at
the west gate of the palace that day:
and when he came the woman held
out to him a box of red morocco
leather, saying: at is for you" But
he answered: ''It is not for me-" and.
turning away, left her. And this hap
pened on three evenings. Then on the
fourth day it was again his turn to
mount guard at the palace; and when
he had sat there for an hour on his
horse the Princess Osra rode out from
under the portico. She rode alone, and
the ruby necklace was on her neck;
and she said.
'T am going to ride outside the city
by the river bank. Let a trooper fol-
low me some way behind" and she
signed with her hand to Lord Harry.
and he rode after her through the
streets and out or the western gate;
and they turned along the bank of
the river. When they had gone three
or four miles from the city, Osra
halted and beckoned the Lord Harry
to approach her: and he came. But
when she was about to speak to him
and tell him that she knew him, sud
den and new madness came on to him,
and he seized her bride and dug his
spurs into his horses tanks, and both
the horses bounded forward at a gall
lop. In alarm the princess cried out,
but he did not heed her. Along the
bank they galloped, and when they met
anyone, which happened seldom-for
the place was remote and it was now

that knew me before, but have not
known me since L have been on your
guard because have altered my face.
Take care that you SO alter it that they
do not know me again.
Then the kings breath caught in his
throat for he had loved Lord Harry
Culverhouse, and he asked again, Us
there no other Way?'
"Hark," said the other, 81 hear the
horses of your guard drawing near: L
hear them to east and west and north;
and do you not see shapes riding
there to the south, across the river?
If [ ride from here alive, [ shall be
taken and the truth must be known.
For my sake and hers, strike, sire"
Then the king took Lord Harry Gull
verhouse by the arm and drew him to
him, saying:
Must it be so, Harry? And we have
lived as friends together
1.-The sound of hoofs is very near,
sire"
The king drew himself up to his
height and he raised his hat from his
head and bowed low to Lord Harry
Culverhouse. and he said:
"Now praise be to God for the res
toratio of this gentleman to a sound
mercy for the sake of his honorable
death"
And he drew his sword from it's
sheath and came up to Lord Harry
/ Culverhouse, who stood on the edge of
the bluff The king raised his sword
| and struck with all his strength, and
the head split under the blow, and
Lord Harry Culverhouse fell dead
from the bluff into the river, holding
the ruby necklace in his clenched
hand. And the king shivered and a
| short sob burst from him.
On this instant arose an eager, glad
cry, and twenty of the guard rushed
! forward, greeting the king and re-
joiced to see the princess. And she,
reused by the noise Of their coming,
sat up again, rubbing her eyes, and
she cried, Where is he? Where is
| Lord Harry?" And she looked around
on the troopers, and they gazed at
| her, much astonished at hearing what
she said But Rudolf came to her, and
took her hand, saying:
why, Osra, you have been dream
| ing. There is no Lord Harry here.
Lord Harry Culverhouse is far off in
his own country, Did this rascal of
| trooper brighten you?"
! Her eyes grew wide in wonder, but
before she could speak, he turned to
| the guard, saying:
"By heavens pleasure, I came in
| time to prevent any harm, except the
| loss OF 2-necklace my sister wore. FOr
as rode up I saw a fellow STOPPING
down by her and fumbling with the
clasp of her necklace. He was one of
your troop and had rode out behind
her, and he must have carried her off
by force. and now he was endeavor-
ing to rob her, and as / rode up to
| him he sprang away from her, holding
her necklace in his hand, and I leapt
down from my horse and ran to him
and he retreated in fear Then I drew
my sword and drove him back TO the
edge of the bluff and then I split his
skull and he fell into the river still
holding the necklace But, thanks to
God. the princess is not hurt. Let
search be made for the fellows body
for. perhaps the necklace will be still
! in his hand"

But one cried, 'How came they
here?"
HAh sister," said the King, fixing
his eyes on Osra, "how came you
here?'
And she, reading in the Kings eyes
the answer that he would have said.
''The trooper compelled me to come
hither with him, and he threatened to
kill me if / would not give him my
necklace. But [ refeused, and then he
drew a knife and menaced me with
it, and 1 fell into a swoon, and knew
no more until 1 awol1e and found you
here; and now [ see that my necklace
is gone"
Bring her horse" the King com
manded, land ride in front and be-
hind. We will return to the city at
the best speed we may
Then he mounted the Princess on
her horse and rode by her side, sup
porting her with his arm, and the
troopers were some way off in front and

hastily, but yet sparing nothing; and
when he told him how he had carried
off the princess, the kings hand flew
to the hilt of his sword, but Lord
Harry said, mot yet" and continued
to tell the king how Osra had pitied
him and how he had watched by her
and how she had slept again, bidding
him keep the pin. Then, glancing at
Osra, he lowered his voice and spoke
very quickly and urgently; and the
king held out his hand and shook Lord
Harry's hand, asking, rs there no
other way" But Lord. Harry shook
his head; then he kissed the kings
hand, and next he went and kissed
Osra's hand very softly and looked for
the last time on her face; and he drew
the golden pin from his purse and he
put it gently and deftly under her hair.
And he took the ruby necklace in his
own hand and clenched it tight; and
he said to King Rudolf:
Sire, there are some in the city

was found, with his own hand he COW
cred the face and put the pin in the
hand from which he took the ruby
necklace; and he sold the necklace and
used the proceeds of it as his sister
had desired.
Thus the madness of Lord Harry
Culverhouse, which was bred in him
by the beauty of the Princess Osra,
worked it's way with him and brought
him first into peril of great villainy
and at last to death. And his name
passed no more on the lips of any in
Strelsau nor between King Rudolf
and his sister, while the story that the
king had told the troopers was be-
lieVed by ALL and none save the king
knew what Lord Harry Culverhouse
had done in his madness. But Osra
mourned for him, and for long while
she would not go abroad nor receive
any of the princes or mobiles who came
to the court, but lay still sick and full
Of grief bewailing the harm that she
had wrought. Yet, as time passed,
she grew again happy, for she was
young and the world was sweet to
her. and then, as King Rudolf had
hidden her, she remembered Lord
Harry Culverhouse as he had been be-
fore his madness came upon him. Yet,
still more did she remember how, even
in his madness, he had done her no
harm, but had watched beside her
through the night and had, as the
morning dawned, entreated death at
the hands of the king, prefering to
gle idle tongue should fall foully upon
her name. Therefore she mourned for
him with secret tears.
But he. although no monument
marked his grave and although men
spoke of him only as the mad trooper
who had robbed the princess. yet
slept soundly and at peace; and his
heart. and in it the golden pin that
had fastened the rudy hair of Prin-
cess Osra.
1923 EDITION OF SHAKESPEARE.
The first edition of Shakespeare ever
published was the 1923 folio, which was
issued seven years after the poets
death. Very few copies of this editio
princeps are known to exist. and there
fore the one that has lately been dis
covered in the university library of
Padua may be regarded as a most val
liable addition to our literary treas
ures.
1t is complete with the exception of
the title page. The librarian found it
in box of uncatalogued books. 1t is
thought that the loss of the title page
explains its having thus been thrown
aside, but it must once have had a
place in the literary treasury, for
there is a piece of paper pasted on
the cover inside on which is written:
''Tutte lie opere di Shakespeare, Com
edie Thagedie. Nance il frontispicio.
in capsa ad leavus. (All the works of
Shakespeare. Comedies and Tragedies.
The frontispice lacking. In the left
hand drawer.)
The book must hav belonged to an
actor, as it is marked for the stage
and these markings are restricted to
three plays-'Macbeth, Measure for
Measure" and ga Winters Tale
Macbeth" is the play most annotated.

that the Prohibitionists, having in view
great community good, ran wild on
one idea, and did not win themselves
strength by radiealism. Even the Meth
odist Church, always total abstinence and
prohibition in its views and expressions,
at late conference in Michigan advised
its people to support regulation and local
option policies permitted under the laws
OF that State as the more reasonable way
of effectine good results in war upon the
liquor traffic. Yet few years ago any
such policy was denounced by the church
as temporiZing with an evil. Men are

THE MATTER OF REWARDS.

The State Board of Examiners has de-
cided in three cases recently before the
board that reward offered by the State
for the capture and conviction of crimi-
nails cannot be paid to peace officer.
State or municipal, though such officer
may have been wholly instrumental in
conviction.
If this is the law it has not been lived
up to in the past years of State history.
! the practice has been diametrically op-
posed to such Interpretation. Indeed, the
Legislature has made special appropria-
tions TO pay peace officers rewards.
If the ruling now made by the Board of
Examiners is in consonance with the law
of the State, then the law needs amend
ment. For it must be clear to the most
superficial mind that the result will be to
confine peace officers to merely formal
lines of action in apprehending criminals.
They will not be inspired by hope of re-
ward to any extraordinary efforts. They
will not be warranted in expanding
money or adopting means that render
them financially liable in order to bring
| criminals TO justice, so far as rewards Of
fered by the State are concerned. Of
course the ruling does not involve re-
wards offered by private parties.
The ruling will modify the action of
some 200 peace officers in the State SO
radically that the criminal element may
think that it has gained decided ad-
vantage, and in consequence we may ex-
pect crime to be more bold than hereto
fore. There is another side to the case,
! however, namely, that it is the duty of
all peace officers to act without the slim
ulus OF reward; that capability of receiv-
! ing such reward tends to render peace
officers inefficient until a reward is Of
fered; that the expectancy of reward
tends to limit the activity of the officer
prior to the announcement of an offer OF
| reward by the State. Indeed it is well
known that peace officers have concealed
facts that would have resulted in sppre-
hension of criminals in order to induce
the offering of reward; as the the phrase
goes, officers sometimes stake out GRIM
| inals," and fail TO arrest until rewards for
| apprehension are announced.
But the question is, Is this latter evil
greater than the other which practically
prohibits a peace officer from entailing
| expense and putting forth extraordinary
efforts to apprehend criminals? For we
must assume that The law is as the Board
of Examiners has interpreted it. though
| it is somewhat surprising that in all these
years the point has not been made until
recently.
Taking everything into consideration.
and weighing ali that is to be said for and
against the reward policy, the RECORD
UNION entertains the belief that the law
should be so modified as TO permit peace
officers to be participants in disburse-
ment of rewards offered by the State, un-
der guarantees secured by showings to be
made before the Board of Examiners.

WHILE the Powers OF Europe have
made themselves heard regarding the
Armenian ou.rages, and have received
from the Porte assurance that the Ar
inenian reforms demanded shall be at
once inaugur&ted, the United States has
not taken any Official action whatever. If
this is because of the tradition OF the Re-
public that we must not form any en-
tangling alliances nor mix up with the
affairs OF foreign countries, the Govern
ment has made a sad mistake. There
was precisely as much good reason for
our interposing protest in the Armenian
matter as there was for any other nation.
II is not case in which contiguity of
continental Powers enters in. Its case
OF humanity, pure aud simple, and one
that from the beginning has appealed to
us as a civilized nation in the name of
humanity. So far as the people of our
country are concerned, the sentiments re-
garding the Turkish misrule in Armenia
are well known. There has been frank
and outspoken statement of the views OF
American citizens, and even petitions
aud direct appeals have been made by
them to the Washington authorities. But
beyond a request TO our representatives
in Turkey to inquire and report, we have
not had news of any interposition OF pro-
test or warning to the Porte to be merci-
ful 10 its dependents. 1t is not now de-
MED that the stories of the outrages by
the Turks and the Kurds are true. In
deed, the official reports have not told the
story fully, because in cold official re-
port that cannot be done. Why we
should not, therefore, officially have
urged upon the Sultan the necessity for
staying his hand is inexplicable.
