How strange they are, those men,
cries OF the past, which haunt ones
brains so persistently that one cannot
get rid of them. This all happened
so long ago, SO far back in the past.

l have seen so many terrible things
since then, and had so many sad ex-

that not a single day should pass
without my seeing poor Mere Clo-
chette's face just as she was when
was mere child of ten or twelve years
old.
She was sewing woman who used
to come to us every Tuesday, for the
whole day, to mend the linen. Our
home was one of those old country
places which people call a chateau, but
which was in reality just an old fash
toned house with a pointed roof, and
with four or five little cottages group
ed round 1t.
The village was just a few hundred
yards away from our house, a number
of little houses built around the red
brick church, which was nearly black
with age. Every Tuesday morning

Barclay, q little town in Northern
Manitoba, has achieved distinction. It

town in Canada where marriages are
performed by photograph. Barclay is
near the southwestern shore of Lake
Winnepegosis, within sight Of Duck
mountain. The map-makers have ig-

authorities have not honored 1t with
recognition. Few knew Of It's existence

John Barclay Is said to have amassed
a fortune.
John Barclay settled there years ago,
commenced IN a modest way, and by
perseverance acquired an extensive
farm. He started with six log huts.
Around these as a nucleus q village
sprang up. The town grew to be OF
such Importance that 1t was added to
the parish of Rev. Arthur M. Black

congregation. 1t was - noteworthy

Youths tried to arrange their el~sass-

son. Many a maiden's mind was hass

inconVenient If a person died and
the parson had left town even few
minutes before, his virtues had to wait
four years for ministerial eXtolment.
If a maiden tarried in reply to loves
urging, cruel fate repaid her for her in
decision. But there seemed no help for
it, John Barclay could suggest moth

afford a preacher.
Barclay had a son, John Barclay Jr.
Like his father and some other men,
he loved. The object of his affection
was Miss Lillian Armitage, the daugh-
ter Of the foreman Of the farm. john
Jr was UP to date, read all the period

circumstances replied the magistrate,

This decision carried weight with the
Armitage family. Not that the girl
needed urging, but the father and
mother were conservative. Their con-

SLAVE GIRLS CAPTURED.
Thirty Taken Out of Dens in China

Town by the Police.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. There was
wild excitement in Chinatown when
government officials made a raid on the
slave dens and captured thirty girls.
Twenty-Five customs inspectors, assist
ed by forty policemen, made the ar
rests. In order to catch the Cinnamon
unawares, officers went to Chinatown
in twos and three, and each detach-
inent was assigned to raid a designated
house at a given moment.
the alarm. Mongolians rushed from
their houses and congregated in thou
sands around the buildings being raid
ed. The police drove the gesticulating
and jabbering throngs away from the
alleys where the federal officers were
engaged in securing possession of slave
girls. In many cases force was neces-
sary to drag them away from their
owners and guards.
Many of the dens We're found to be
heavily barred with thick doors, but
axes and levers soon leVelled the OBJ
structions. Some Of the women resisted
arrest and fought furfously, screaming
at the top Of their voices and calling
on their countrymen to save them.
While the inspectors and police were
forcing the doors of g. den, two slave
girls, by means of sliding panels, secur-
ed entrance to an adjoining house and
jumped from window which faced
Pacific street. A policeman gave chase,
while many Cinnamon attempted to
impede him, and caught the girls.
Some of the women, by means Of lad
ders, gained the roofs of houses. The
police were stationed on the tops Of
many adjoining buildings. The women
were captured and carried to the streets
resisting and screaming at the top of
their voices. The officers were compell-
ed to show their revolvers in order to
force their way through the crowd Of
Chinese who INSTRUCTED the stairwayS
of the deps.
Most of the rescued girls had been
shipped into this country ostensibly
for the Chinese exhibit at the Omaha
exposition.
At least twenty-four Of the girls will
be deported. The authorities found
that one of the women was a notorious
slave dealer who each year made trips
to China and on her return struggled
girls into the United States.
