swept country below him. He was sur
prised to find the fire so fierce, and, as
he watched, Tim saw that the red
tongues were creeping toward little
log cabin in which lived two old and
helpless women, the Ober sisters, and
their blind and crippled brother, who
is one of the oldest men over on the
other side. The lad realized tina. the
house was long way from any other
farmhouse and knew that the people in
the humble cot would find themselves
powerless il they were left in the cabin
until the fire got to their home. With
out thinking of how much suffering it,
meant to his poor, aching limbs, Tim
started down the rugged hillside on his
perilous journey of heroism. He had a
race with the fire, and twice fell from
exhaustion and, almost despaired of
saving the old folks. But his indomit-
able courage never tagged and he kept
going. He reached the old homestead
just as the prairie fire was attacking the
old frame crib.
He hurried into the house and in
formed the old and thoroughly fright
ened people of their danger. 1t only
took him a few minutes to hitch the
horse to the sled, and the old man was
helped on to this. The four drove on to
shelter at the nearest neighbours, leav-
ing the fire to do it's worst.

Visit to San Quentin Prison.
Rev. Hugh Lamont, uncle Of Blanche
Lamont, for whose brutal murder Theo-
dore Durrant has been sentenced to-

Quentin prison. Speaking of his visit
Rev. Lamont said: Judging from the
evidence, believe Durrant guilty, but,
his demeanor is that of an innocent
man. l had no intention of making
public what occurred between us, but!
in justice to that unhappy boy have
changed my mind. l visited Durrant
at San Quentin and conversed with him
in Cant Edgar's Office. We greeted each!
other and Durrant held out his hand
to me, saying: I suppose this is Mr.
Lamont. You are attending, I pre-,

ton. greatly regret my inability to
avail myself of the same privilege
During the conversation Rev. La,
mont said: 81 believe in your guilt,
but if you are an innocent man the evil
dence will be soon forthcoming"
Durrant replied that he was an in,
nocent man, and hoped that his in7
nocence would be proved before his
death, but at any rate after the ex-
ecution. Durrant refused to discuss the
question as to the probable murderer,
and after little conversation the In

William Duffy, linotype operator
employed in the composing-room of the
Philadelphia Inquirer, set in six days
last week the enormous amount of 469,-
800 ems of nonpareil type. His aver
age per hour was 9,192 ems. He worked
off the hook, ordinary run of daily
copy, principally markets and sum
maries of sporting events, loaded his
own matter, using one-point leads, did
all his own correcting, passed galley
proofs to next operator for correction
and kept no account of waits for copy
or breaks in machine. The highest
average for six days heretofore was
$500 per hour, and 100000 for six days,
but the matter was loaded for operator,
and all stoppages of machine deducted.
The measure was also considerably
wider than that of the Inquirer. On the
same basis, Mr.. Duffy could, however,
set over 100000 ems. Mr.. Duffy has set

is insidious, and men do not realize that
they are in its clutch. While consumption
is germ disease, the bacilli will not in
wade sound and healthy lungs. The lungs
must first be in diseased condition.
First man feels little out of sorts,
Probably he is overworked and has given
too little time to eating, sleeping and rest
ing. His appetite falls off. His digestion
gets out of order and his blood does not
receive the proper amount of life-giving
nutriment. The liver becomes torpid and
the blood is filled with impurities These
are pumped into every organ of the body,
building up unhealthy, half-dead tissues.
The most harm is done at the weakest spot
and most frequently that spot is in the
lungs. A slight cold leads to infamma-
ton, the bacilli invade the lungs and we
have case of consumption.
Ninety eight per cent. of all cases of
consumption are cured by DIR. Pierce's

a painful struggle, speech came to him,
"How did you know that?" he gasped,
In tones so low that was compelled
to bend down over him to catch the
words. "How could you know-the
thought-the feeling-the conviction OF
q sudden death-has been constantly
with me of late?-Oh, God! 1t is COM
ing, I know it-co1ning soon, that sud-
den deathl"
mo, no, Mr.. Morley" answered,
briskly. "Cheer up, sir. was only
supposing a case. You will not die,
sir. You are sick man, and that is
the cause of your gloomy premonitions,
depend upon it. Allow me to help you
into the house. Go to bed, and We'll
have doctor at you as quickly as pos.
sible. You'll be all right again soon."
The fact is, really thought the man
was dying, and, in the fear of that,
my words were rather extravagant.
He did not seem to notice them, how
ever, but sat there with his head
dropped on his bosom. I shook him
gently by the arm, and he raised his
eyes. Yielding to my uplifting mo-
ton, he staggered to his feet.
Slowly we moved toward the house,
the broken man leaning his whole
weight on me. Not word was uttered
by either of us until we reached the
steps leading up to the piazza. There
he drew back, and hastily placed my
arm behind him, from the fear that he
was about to sink down. He did not,
however, and, as soon found, he had
paused simply to speak before entering
the house. He gazed into my face long
and earnestly, and such an appealing
look was in his eyes that was stirred
to deepest compassion.
''Swear to God that she shall always
respect my memory; that she may
never hear anything to cause her to
change in her love for me-" he said,
brokenly, and in the manner of one

manded, fercely.

thinking that his mind was wandering.

"Why, you know how deep and true
is her affection for you, Mr. Morley"
"And always shall bel" he exclaimed.
There can be no doubt of it, am
sure. Nothing could change her.
Come, let me help you in"
Not yet. Swear that she shall never
hear anything to make her change" he
again demanded. whatever happens.
Swear it! Give me your oath before
God!"
Thinking to humor him in his weak
ness, and yet strongly impressed by his
terrible earnestness, raised my hand
and made the desired oath.
Mr.. Morley drew long breath and
then again spoke, in firmer tones.
II believe you will keep this promise,
if you did not the other" he said.

CHAPTER Xu.

Mr.. Morley came down the path from
the house. At first he did not see us,
and Florence called, which caused him
to turn and approach. AS he drew near
his glance rested on me. Then he
scanned his daughters face anxiously.
His face grew white, and drawn ex-
preston came over it; he tottered in
his walk, and seemed to keep upright
by an effort of will.
"Child, why have you tears In your
eyes?" he asked, in low, husky tones.
Then, without pausing for answer, he
went on: Retire into the house

"Oh, father, you are I'LL" Florence
exclaimed. in deep concern. what is
it? Do come with me into the house
and let me do something for you" In
loving way which was all her own
she drew his arm through hers.
The parent glanced down at the
beautiful upturned face with solicitous
love shining upon it, and his face los,
some of its haggardness. He smiled
and replied: ~ am not ill, Florence;
only tritle worried. Do as requested
please"
In obedience she slowly withdrew
sending back to me an appealing
glance.
When she had gone turned my gaze
upon the father. There was no wonde,
that Florence had expressed concern
for her parent. Even the momentary
glimpse had caught of him on the
morning after my arrival showed me
a change. And now that closer In,
spection was possible, the difference
between the Mr.. Morley of q year age
and the man now standing before me
was startlingly apparent. He certainly
looked like sick man.
"You had better sit down, sir" I said
in commiseration for his weakness.
Mr.. Morley sank down upon rustic
seat and I remained standing before
him, awaiting his words with emotions
alternating between hope and fear,
I'll have lost somewhat of late
business reverses," he murmured
Then, suddenly fixing his eyes on my
face in a searching glance, he said:
my daughter was weeping. What was
the reason? What did you say to hel

He regarded me with questioning
look, and ! added: "She was sorry, sir
that my innocence has not been estab
lished. This was partly the cause fol
her tears. I am deeply grateful fol
her tender sympathy"
"Oh!" The hard lines of his face
relaxed; he drew long breath. "Sht
thinks very highly of you, Conway"
"Your words give me the keenes
pleasure, Mr.. Morley, and offer me al
opportunity to lay before you sub

said, eagerly.
Mr.. Morley started; then q tremol
