A Trick of the Camera,

The Catholics of Hastings and St.
Leonards are going to celebrate the Au-
gustine thirteenth century by paying a
visit to the ruined chapel of ST. Mary
j., Hastings castle. In former days this
chapel was a place of consderabl BILE i'm
Eortance, being served by a dean and
L. prebendaries. At the reforma ton it
met the fate of SO many similar institu-
items, and was given by Henry VIII. 10
one of his favorites. 1t is now in the
possession of Lord Chichester, whose
family have done much TO preserve the
lettering walls which crown the old
Cirque Port. Considerable curiosity
has been aroused in local Catholic cir
cles by the discovery tina It in most, if not
all. of the photographs of the ancient
chapel a trick of light discloses the
figure of a woman in flowing garment
and veil, standing in an tttitude of de-
vction before what appears to be 4
Statue of the Madonna and child. A
closer inspection shows the group to be
nothing more than a broken buttress
and part Of a door, but the illusion a I
first sight is distinctly remarka BILE, and

they went the rounds of the court until
old Pike choked them off by saying
they couldn't we'll attach the accuSed's

devoted two sleepless nights and in
which he had lavished satire and sar-
casm by the page upon all enemies or
accusers of his client. Pierce meant
it to be the sensation of the day, and
'he court was crowded to hear him
read it, despite the significant absence
of BraX and his now confounded advis-
ers. BraXton already was in deep dis

tully meant to ''show up" the scandal

But it was not to be. Old Close put
forth a banGaged hand and restrained
him. I've been thinking that all over"
he said. land I'll just say a word instid."
With that he slowly found his feet and
the green patch over his eyes was
brought 20 bear on the court. The
silence of midnight fell on the crowded
room, as, leaning on the back of his
chair, the accused stood revealed in the
worn old single-breasted coat, the
coarse trousers and shoes, so long asso-
ciated with him. He cleared his throat
and then faltered. He did not know
how to begin. At last the words came
slowly, and with many a hitch and
stumble:
You see, it's this way, Gen. Pike and
gentlemen of the court ! never knew

regular officer, r wouldn't have tried
it. All knew was what I'd seen durin'

never was strong, and he broke down
