SYNOPSIS.

Chapter I-D'Auriac, commanding out
post where scene is laid, tells the story.
De Gomeron has been appointed by Gen.
de Rome TO examine into a charge made
against him. Nicholas. a sergeant. brings
in two prisoners, a man and woman, who
are from the kings camp at lie Fere.
D'Aurlac, angered by insulting manner Of de
Gomeron toward the woman, strikes him.
A duel follows. and during the commotion
the prisoners escape. De Rome happens on
the dsorderly scene, and d 'Auriac, upon
giving his parole not to attempt escape,
hears this remarkable sentence: "To-mor-
row. you must die on the field. Win or
lose, II / catch you at the close OF the day,
viii hang you as high as Haman."
Chapter HID Auriac next morning takes
his place as usual on de Rone's stan. In
the course of his ride over the field he saves
the life Of Nicholas, the sergeant. who, a
victim OF de iomeron's malice, Is found In
imminent danger Of almost instant death.

strong breeze lifted the smoke from the
now speechless guns and showed that
they were won. but il also showed us
another sight. and that was de Rone's
broken center doubling back upon us
in utter rout. and behind them silver
line of shining helmets as the kings
house charged, led by Henry himself.
On they came. a dancing line of light,
a CLEAN of shining swords, with the
white plume of the bravest of them full
three lengths in front.

the deep-mouthed cheer as they broke
through the mailed ranks Of de Rone's
own cuirassiers. and drove horse and
foot, knight and knave. in huddled
mob before them.

saw in the press a dark figure that
suddenly turned the reins of a huge,
black charger and flew at the king.
For an instant two bright sword blades
crossed in the air, and then the black
horse plunged riderless into the gray
spate of smoke that the wind was bear
ing westwards, and a groan as of dis
pair fell on my ears.
'vive lie Roll" Once again came the
full-throated cry, and the bay horse was
gafioping towards us, followed by the
line Of swords, no longer shining. but
lnlled and red with the slaughter they
had made.
che next moment the enemy were on
us. We met them with row of pixies;
but what could we do, for we were few

LIGHTS A SALOON.
Dynamo in Chicago w. G. T. u.
Building Has New
Customer.

Chicago, Jan. 8.-The Woman's Temple
is shedding literal light upon its nearest
neighbors, and in that simple fact shock
has been prepared for the members of the
Womans Christian Temperance union.
The dynamo which furnishes electricity
for the offices and halls in the big build
ing at Monroe and La Sale streets is also
furnishing light for a saloon just across
the alleyway south of the building.
AS result of this arrangement, which
has been in effect since Monday, the estab-
lishment of Jacob Schlitt, 1874 La Sale
street, now enjoys the distinction of be-
ing the only saloon in the world that is
lighted by the Womans Christian Tenn
perance union. In its mission of carry
ing light into the dark places of earth
it is not recorded that the white ribbon
army has ever before undertaken to fur
nish light for a grogshop.
The new source of illumination for the
saloon has been drawn upon for six days,
though preparations for the change have
been in progress since before ChristIha
Mr.. Schlitt, through a friend, made ar
rangement to secure light from the dyna-
mos of the Wonan's Temperance Build
ing association by negotiation with Henry
DibbIee, who has charge of the manage
ment of the property.

HE WASHED HER FACE
Indianapolis for Snowballing a
Pretty Girl.

Indianapolis, Jan. 8.-AdmiraI George
Brown, ranking admiral, recently re-
tired from the United States navy, had
Paymaster Arthur c. Thomas of the
Lake Erie and Western railway fined 81
and costs in court today for an assault
on the admiral's youngest son, Hugh
Brown, a boy IA years old.
The two families are neighbors in the
swell suburb of Woodruff Place, and
during the snow storm last Sunday Ad-
miral Browns boy got his sled out on
the sidewalk and ran into a bunch of
woodruff Place naidenS Whb were haV-
ing a frOlic in the snow. The prettiest
little girl in the party was Paymaster
Thomas daughter, Charlotte. The ad-
niraHs son caught her in his arms,
washed her face with snow, and stuffed
a handful of the beautiful down her
collar
The girls screams attracted her faith
er, who came running out and dragged
off the young admiral and sent him
home. It was complained that Pay
master Thomas had used unnecessary
violence in the matter.
After paying his fine today in Justice
Walpole's court, Paymaster Thomas
began action against young Brown,
charging him with assault on little Miss
Thomas.
Admiral Browns defense for his son
will be that the custom of washing a
pretty girls face with snow is one
handed down from the Puritan days
and perfectly honorable and legitimate.
The boys case comes up next week.

IN ONE MANS HANDS.
ChicagO's Mayor Has a Plan to
Regulate Boxing Matters.

Chicago, Jan. S.-If the sporting frater-
nifty of Chicago can agree upon one man to
handle all of the pugiIisitc affairs. there
is no doubt Mayor Harrison will be will
ing 10 grant any number of permits for
boxing bouts of any duration up to eight
rounds.
This position was outlined by the mayor
a few days ago to some of his friends.
Yesterday he declined to be interviewed on
the subject, merely saying that there was
a way out of the trouble if the "frater-
nity'' would get together and patch up a
truce. The idea of the mayor is to have
one man handle the entire matter of pu-
gilistic entertainments. He would have
someone who will be agreeable to all per-
sons who want to give such Shows. This
man the mayor would hold responsible for
anything that happened.
The permit for boxing shows could be
obtained only through the appointee, and
he would look after the contests person
ally To him would have to be submit
ted a list of the boxers who were to com
pete in the shows. He would have to
see to it that every man named to COM
pete in bouts was in perfect physical con-
dition. The examination would have to
be made under the eye of an experienced
physician, which would obviate all worry
about any accidents.
What the mayor wished first to rid him
self of is the constant kicking and great
number of disagreements that come up
over boxing. 1t is shown that at all
times of the day the mayors office is
filled with politicians and others with
pulls" who are complaining that this or
that man did not get his permit as agreed,
or making some other complaint. The
mayor is thoroughly tired of it all. That
is why he has conceived the idea of plac-
ing the matter of boxing in the hands of
one capable man. Then there would be
no more complaining. The one who is
selected would have to stand it ALL
