SOMEBODY Slipped a Cog.

The teachers who visited The Insti-
tute at Eiko complain that they were
not very enthusiastically received
when they reached the town. Regard
ing the matter the Independent has
The following:
A whole carload Of pretty school
ms'ams arrived last night from Reno
and points along the road. When
they alighted from h cal they fell
among strangers as no CONF ittee or
the Elko teachers were present to
meet them and pilot them to the
parlor Of the hotel. This has acca-
stoned come friction among the teach
ers and they are not able to discover
much Of Elko's Wanted hospitality.
The Independent wishes the visiting
teachers to understand that their
chilly reception is no fault Of the
people Of E. ko. We ass,ee hem that
our hearts are with them AID we trust
that though their frs, appearance
among US seemed chilly thai AS they
become better acquaintei they will
! like US better and forget their recep-
ion.
No one who has ever had any ex-
perience with Elko people would think
Of charging them with a lack Of hos
pitality. The Elkoites are not built
that way.
The APPEALS solution Of the whole
matter is that the train arrived ahead
Of time. or the people managing the
affair neglected TO telegraph to Elkc
when they could expect the crowd. Nc
one would think of Elko people giving
a car load of pretty school ma'ams
"the Overlook
What's ev~erybodys business is no
bOdys business and so somebody
"slipped a cog"
Now Elko will oltdo herself to max,
amends for the original Oversight
and put hopitality all over them lik,
a warm blanket.
At last accounts the school ma'am,
were presented with the keys Of til
town on a platter.

lie darted in through the open door of
the room, snatched up the sword and
one Of the pistols and had got back
nearly as far as the threshold, when
he was arrested, and his very limbs
were rooted to the ground by the sight
of the figure which passed noiselessly
along the corridor outside.
"Imuginc tall and somber appari-
ton, with long black robes sweeping
the floor, the head shrouded in n deep
cowl, from whose 1ccesscs CLEANED cut,

and as mysteriously us it had come"

credulous.
"Thcre were none. The only other

spect; but the agitation un,er which he
evidently laborcd furnished some cx-
cuse.
Mother he cried out as soon as he
was inside the door, have you heard

"The princess, with gesture full of
dignity, drew his attention to my pres
ence.
"'Boris,' she exclaimed, in voice of
reproof, you have omitted to pay your
respects to the baron
"The young prince blushed, and has
tened to make his apologies, with that
grace which he inherits from his pa

there appears to be something in my
character which inspires confidence 1T
all those with whom come in contact,
and induces them to entrust me with
their most delicate affairs, in which l
have really no desire to participate"
To such an observation it was OBJ
viously my duty to make one reply.
"The fact is my dear ambassador,
that they do right. 1t is the strictnesa
with which you guard these condolences

Having said this, took advantage OF
the interruption to make desperate
move on the chessboard. His excel
lency, affecting not to note what had
done, continued his revelations.

sudden appearance, and to astound III

at once, however. l did see something
which caused my heart to give great
bound. Looking at the far end of the
gallery, where the deserted apartments
of which Boris had told me were stu-
ated, distinctly perceived faint glow
of light along the floor.
"Instantly | turned to the threshold
of the room in which l had left the
young prince, and beckoned to him to
come ont into the gallery. He saw by
my manner that had made some inn
ture with shaking limbs. No sooner
lad he emerged from the doorway, and
followed with his eyes the direction
in which pointed than he gave great
gasp of terror.
"'The deserted suite!' he exclaimed,
in a hoarse whisper. There has never
been light there in all the years that
l have known this part of the palace!'
II nodded my head.
at is what expected you to tell me,
whispered back. But do not give way
TO nervousness. You must see that this
confirms my theory of the circum,
stances which we are about to investi-
gate. A spirit, such rs you were de-
ccived into thinking you saw, would
not need light for it's purposes. 1t IL
evident that We are on the track Of a
more real and dangerous secret. The
person or persons who are engaged in II
have obtained possession Of these vacant
rooms, in which they are probably now

batted the soundness of my conclusions.
