lis match. Hale took two love sets
and the match.
Armstrong, Of st. Paul, was matched
with Myers. the Chicago crack, and

ready to meet him on his own ground,
and kept safe lead in each set, win
ming by score of 6-3, 6-3.
Waidner, of Chicago, and Barney, of
Minneapolis, furnished about the pref

Minneapolis, GA, 6-2.

Lemars, was another unknown guam

but Mundy took the next after deucing
it, and reversed the figures of the
first set in the decisive one. Mundy
is expected to do some good work this
week.

A COUNTRY LEGEND.
How the Buckets Were in the Maple
Sugar Bush

Once Ia tho maple sugar days of
spring a farmer sent his Celtic hired
man down into the sap bush as am
bassador. with full power to ascertain
ana report how the sap was running.
Accordingly the Celtic nired man, who
WAS an IrishmaD, went down into the
sap bush. Into each maple tree was
driven an iron spile, and out through
the hollow shell OF this ran the sap,
falling drop by drop and sudden guslles
into the pals sci beneath.
Click, slop, the sugar maple drips,"
says the poet.
Now from some maple trees the sap
viii run more copiously than from
others, and whether this is because the
first answer more joyously to the call
of spring, or because the last are more
scrupulous about entering into con-
srsracy with the farmer to produce fine
Vermont sugar while growing in Ohio,
tho nature lists and moralsts disagree;
but however this may be, the trees diff
fer widely IN their rate of flow, and SO
the Irishman found il.
quired the farmer.
"Oi was"
How be the buckets?'
We'll, sor some av the booklets be
only half-full, and some do be tree
quarters fun. but some av thin do be
fun and some runmn' over: on an aver

SDiIerE in History.

Spiders have played a greater part In
history than most people are aware Of.
Every body knows how the perseverance
of a spider encourag ged Robert Bruce to
regain his kingdom of Scotland, but not
so many know that according to Jewish
tradition a spider saved David's life.
Saul was hunting for him, and his SOL
dieTs approached a cave where David
was hidden. Shortly before, however, a
spider had spun her web at the mouth
of the cave, and the soldiers, taking it
for granted that if he had taken refuge
IN the cave he must have broken the
web, departed forgetting the web might
have been spun after as we'll as before
his entrance. A spider saved the life
of the grand-uncle of the German en-
peror. Frederick William was king Of
Prussia. and an attempt was made to
poison him in a cup Of chocolate. BY
chance Il spider fell into the cup, and
for this reason the monarch gave the
chocolate to a dog, who Immediately
died. Inquiry was made, with the re-
suit that the cook was hanged, and a
large spider wrought in gold now dec
crates one of the chief rooms of the
winter palace at Potsdam in memory
of the kings escape.

HE WON THE DAY.
Young Harmon's Conflict with a College
Faculty Years Ago.

a story about the college life of Judge
Judson Harmon was told by class
mate of the encouragement the other
aay, says Columbus correspondent Of
the Cleveland Leader. Nearly thirty
years ago fudge Harmon was student
in DenisOn university at Granville. AT
commencement time in those days II
was the custom of the senior class to
issue a publication called the Pasquin,
which always contained matter of the
most vituperous sort, and the dItorials
were often directed at the most prom
inent people in the city, as well as the
professors of the school The greatest
mystery surrounding the publication
and distribution Of the sheet and the
very secrecy Of it insured the contrib
utors from unpleasant results. Judge
Harmon was a member of the class OF
OF sc. In the Pasquin of that year there
appeared many bitter denunciatiOns Of
and personal thrusts at the faculty De-
spite the safety which the editors sup
posed surrounded their pointed thrusts,
the faculty demonstrated that they
knew the source of the writings. on
commencement day all Of the students
received their parchments excepting
SOuuS I1dIulOn. lie alone was l)uUlSlSU
for his connection with the Pasquin.
1t took only a minute for the students
to understand the slight to Harmon,
and they proved their loyalty TO him by
holding an Indignation meeting in the
fraternity hall. Resolutions were adopt
ed in which the students foresWore al
legiance to the college unless Harmon's
diploma was forthcoming and he was
placed on an equal footing with the 9TH
ers. The board of trustees demurred
and finally agreed to confer honors up
on Harmon privately, but the students
refused the offer. Next day they hired
band, formed a big procession and
marched to the little church where the
commencement exercises had been held.
The citizens of Granville had learned
the facts and they turned out in force
to watch developments The trustees
were sent for and President Talbot pre-
sented Harmon's diploma with fitting
dignity and expressions of praise. The
victory of the students was celebrated
In true college style, and the present
attOrney-gene of the United States
was the lion Of the hour.

PAYS FOR HIS PASS SES.
A Lawyer Buys Seats at the Theater
by the Month.

Newspaper readers have often been
told how vain young men will spend
50 in jollying a Snowman in order to OBJ
tain a pass to the theater worth not
to exceed 81 a I retail. There is no doubt
that the pass habit represents a strange
infatuation, says Buffalo Inquirer.
There is lawyer in this city who is
not satisfied with being the recipient of
passes. He likes to issue them him
self. He considers that it adds to his
Importance to be able to write for a
friend an order for a couple of theater
seats which will be honored at the box
office. So he has an arrangement with
one Of the play houses by which he may
write as many passes as he pleases over
his own signature. The orders are TAX
en- up at the office and the regular tick
cts issued in their place. The gratified
recipient gains the impression that the
lawyer is a stockholder in the theater.
In reality, he pays for the seats at reg
ular rates, a bill being rendered TO him
monthly. 1t is a harmless fad, though
rather an expensive one.

MODERN VENETIAN WOMEN.
They Are Rarely Pretty, Often Charm
Ing and IIsuallY Handsome.

They Are Rarely Pretty, Often Charm
Ing and Usually Handsome.
Venetian women are rarely pretty,
often charming, generally handsome,
says Harpers Magazine. And all of
them, without exception, walk splendid
ly, not taking little, mincing, feminine
steps, but with a fine, grave stride, due
partly to the fact that they are accus-
toned to wear heelless slippers, which
oblige them to plant the feet firmly and
whole foot at once, without a chance Of
tripping on toes or pounding on heels,
as women who wear light tight boots
are able and apt to do; they walk with
much the same action as if they were
barefooted and Just as well. And they
use the whole body in walking, not with
the undulatory motion of Spanish wom-
en- but with a movement of the whole
back and shoulders in the exact swing
of the stride. Venetian women do, how
ever, remind one in many ways of Span
sh women in their way of doing the
hair. Of wearing the mantilla, for in
stance, the Moorish element coming out
In both, SO that in Venice, for instance,
one finds, quite as a matter of course
an Autico Cafe del MOri cigarette is
still known as a spagnOlettO, and the
dialect touches Spanish at all points.
The types Of Venetian women vary IN
every quarter; the women of the Cas-
tello have quite a different look from
the women Of the DorsOduro. In a sea-
port town there is always certain
intsTmixture Of races, and Venice, with
the different layers of its different oc-
cupationS and cOnqueSts, is variable to
a greater degree than most seapOrts.
j.. Women and girls even children, dress
exactly alike, and there is nothing more
comical, more charming, than the little
people Of y, who look like 20; brilliant,
! fascinating little people, at once very
childish and very mature, with their
hair coiled at the back like their elders,
their skirts down to their heels, their
shawls, too long for them, dangling TO
| the ground, but worn with an air of in
finite Importance and self-sufficiency.
And the colOrs of all these women. the
elegant olives, the delicate blondes, are
| thrown out so well, so finely adorned,
by the vivid colors of shawls and
dresses and stockings, which would be
gaudy elsewhere. but which here in the
heat and glitter OF such an atmosphere
are always in place, never immoderate
! They are all part OF the picture, tbs
great genre picture which is Venice.

CHAPTER V

It was nearly 1 l oclock when we reached this final stage of our nights adventures. We had left the damp fog of the great city behind us, and the night was fairly fine. A warm wind blew from the westward, and heavy clouds moved slowly across the sky, with half Q moon peeping occasional. ly through the rifts. It was clear enough to see for some distance, but Thaddens Sholto took down one of the side lamps from the carriage to give us a better light upon our way.
 Pondicherry Lodge stood in its own grounds and was girt round with 8 very high stone wall topped with broken glass. A single narrow iron clamped door formed the only means of entrance. On this our guide knocked with a peculiar pOstman- like rattat.
 Who is thereH" cried a gruf voice from within.
 Ut is l, McMurdo. You surely know my knock by this time."
 There was a Rrumbling sound and a clanking and jarring of keys. The door swung heavily back, and a short, deep chested man stood in the opening, with the yellow light of the lantern shining upon his protruded face and twinkling, distrustful eyes.
 ''Thar you, MT. ThaddeusS But who are the others? I had no orders about them from the master"
 No, McMurdo? You surprise mel
