terry abroad, feeling as of solemn stir
and preparation going on under cover
of the darkness, which awed and un-
neryed me.
But I said nothing of this, and Nine.
do was equally silent. Like most
countrymen I was ready to believe in
any exaggeration OF the city's late
hours, the more as she made no remark
1 supposed--shaking off the momen-
tary impression-that what saw was
innocent and normal. Besides, 1 was
thinking what should say to Pavannes
when I saw HMM what terms I
should warn him of his peril, and cast
his perffdy in his teeth.
We had hurried along in this way
and in absolute silence, save when some
obstacle or pitfall drew from us an eX-
clamation-for about a quarter of a
mile, when my companion, turning into
slightly wider street, slackened her
speed, and indicated by {. gesture that
we had arrived. A lamp hung over
the porch, to which she pointed, and
showed the small side gate half opened.
We were close behind the other three
now. I saw Croisette stoop to enter,
and as quickly fall back pace. Why?
In moment it flashed across my
mind that we were too iate-that the
vidame had been before lis.
And yet how quiet it all was.
Then I breathed freely again. I saw
that Croisettc had only stepped back
to avoid some one who was coming out
the coadjutor, in fact. The moment
the entrance was clear, the lad shot in,
and the others after him, the priest
taking no notice of them, nor they of
him.
I was for going in, too, when felt
Nine. dos hand tighten suddenly on
my arm, and then fall from it. APP
prised of something by tt:is, I glanced
at the priests face, catching sight of it
by chance just as his eyes met hers.
His face was white--nay, it was ugly
with disappointment and rage, bitter,
snarling rage, that was hardly human.
He grasped her by the arm roughly
and twisted her round without cerc-
mony, so as to draw her few PAGES
aside; vet not so far that could not
hear what they said.
ssHe is not herei" he Kissed. "Do
you understand? He crossed the river
to the Faubourg St. German at night
fall-searching for her. And he has
not come back! He is OF. the other
side of the water, and midnight has
struck this hour past!"
She stood silent for a moment, as if
she had received a blow-siient and
dismayed. Something serious had
happened. I could see that.
''He cannot recross the river now?"
she said, after time. 1.-THE gates
"Shnt!" he replied, briefly. The
keys are at the Louvre"
"And the boats are on this side?'
every boat!" he answered, striking
his one hand on the other with violence.
every boat! No one msy cross until
it is over"
'And the Faubourg ST. Gerniain?'
she said, in lower voice.
There will be nothing done there.
Nothing!"

An Able Conjurer.

Burmese conjurers are rather clever
in excuses. One sold to a man a tails
man to make him invulnerable. The
conjurer let the customer have several
cuts at his arm with a knife, and these
cuts produced no effect. The customer
Paid a good price, went home, barred
his arm, drew his knife, and asked his
wife to make chop at him. She near
" hacked his arm of. He therefore
went back in rage to the conjurer,
who only said: "Ah, the lady is in an
interesting situation which entirely
nullifes all charms" = Longman's
Magazine.

"Ohs" said Benedict, 'is that all?
Why, that fellow has light suit of

DIED FROM HEART FAILURE
Mrs. Neumann's Death Did Not Re-
suit From Stranrulation

The coroner's jury in the case of Mrs
Joseph Neumann, who was found dead
under very peculiar circumstances Sun
day morning, returned verdict yester-
day that the woman came to her death
as a result of heart failure while in the
act of committing suicide. Mrs. Neu-
mann was found in the basement Of her
house, at 637 Sichel street, suspended
to hook in the wall by silk hand
kerchief tied around her neck A post
mortem examination showed that she
had died from heart disease and not
from strangulation. 1t is supposed that
Mrs. Neumann contemplated suicide and
that the excitement brought on by the
preparation incident to the act was re-
sponsible for her death.
Mrs. Neumann has a son who is on a
trip in the mountains in Mendocino
county in company with his teacher and
number Of classmates from the Uni
versity Of California.

and met fellow there who recognized
me from having seen me at Bakersfield.
1t was true had worked for about a
year at Bakersfield. and while didn't
remember him, thought nothing much
about 1t. / met him several times, and
he tried to get me to join him In a gcheme
to make some money. When he indi-
Gated the nature of the scheme backed
down. I'm 46 years old, and have never
been In any trouble, and didn't want
to make money that way Well, the day
my rent was due I had just IS cents in
the world, and l felt bad, and didn't know
what was going to do. To make long
story short, went the night was trap
ped and got 10 cents worth of cocaine
and just got loaded up. At the corner of
Third and Los Angeles streets met
this fellow-I DON'T know his name-and
he again told me what chance had to
make stake. He said that IL I'd go with
him 1t would be just the same as going
into barn, and If I'd only let him lift
me through the window and then go
around and open the door for him he'd
6io the rest. and see that had all the
money I needed to pay my room rent and
eat at the 'toney'' restaurants. That's
about as much as remember, but know
he talked a lot. and-well, / gave way
and went with him. Yes. it's true that he
helped me through the window, and when
I went to open the door 1 ran into the
arms of the officer. know it was plan
ned job, and that the fellow was playing
stool-pigeon, but ! didn't know it at the
time.
What kind of man was he? Well,
guess he was anywhere from rs to 30
years of age. He was tall, and rather
slim built. clean shaven and black hair.
He usually wore good slouch hat and
good boots, but he wore overalls, and
that gave him rough appearance. I
used to see him often around and usual
ly was along with a young fellow about
Is or 10 years of age, who was always
we'll dressed, and wore small English
cap. know If I was out of here with an
officer could put my hands on that fell
low inside of an hour"
And that was the story as told by the
person most closely concerned.
