ning4y: But how Will you DO that!
I see she wears a wedding-ring on
her finger"
The count laughed.
Have you lived all these years,
Burden, to learn from me that ring
does not make a marriage"
"Well, well, it's nothing to me-;
but what about the diamonds,
George?" the old woman asked
eagerly.
paul is bringing them. Here he
is"
Boss entered as he spoke, carry
diamonds.
Halo, mother!" he said jocularly.
Cali alone? Where's Myra and
Sam?"
"Myra's in there" Dame Burden
replied, nodding her head in the di-
recton of the inner chamber. "Sam's
out doing his duty"
Paul laughed.
where is it?" asked the count
abruptly.
Scouting round the Grange, a place
about five miles from here, belonging
to a man named Armistead. They
say he has a pile Of plate worth a
small fortune"
"Armistead!" muttered Ross with a
dark look; she must beware. Godfrey
Armistead is dangerous"
''Do you know him?" the count
asked as he opened the case and
drew out the diamonds.
81 hate him!" muttered Paul. "He
has tracked me wn all my life,
curse him!"
"Well, you shall help to rid him
of his plate aus a revenge" laughed
Count Jura.
Paul looked up quickly.
81 will not have a finger in that
job, George, so I tell you. 1t would
mean danger, perhaps discovery"
II am not afraid, if you are.
Courage, mon ami, and remember,
y-u join in the game at the Grange.
I command you
Paul muttered an oath and flung
himself down on a pile of rugs, and
was silent while the count spread
the glittering gems before the eager
eyes of Dame Burden.
"Here," he said, picking out
ring that b,azed like star, heres
y ur share, Burden. Paul, what will
you have?"
Nothing Of that lot; give me the
cups"
The count glanced at him.
paul, you are growing cowaRdly.
Well, take the cups. I keep the
diamonds"
What will you do with them,
George?" asked Dame Burden, hold
ing out her hand and watching the
Jewels flash in the light.
''Take them abroad and dispose OF
them there" the count answered
shortly.
Myra was leaning against the rough
plank that formed a door between
the two rooms.
''Take them abroad" she whispered
to herself "He is going away and
take her with him. Coward! He
fOrgets me-"
She moved back to the ped on
which she had placed Alice. The

An officer of the United States navy
relates the following as illustrating
some of the perils of gunnery at sea:
81 came very near going up into the
air in small bits on this last squadron
cruise. We were at heavy gun practice
at sea, and but for the quickness Of a
eunner's mate would have never re-
turned. AS you probably know, the
heavy guns in the turrets are fired by
electricity, the gun being discharged
simply by pressing button. The Off
Ger in command of the forward turret
on our ship during rapid-firc practice
was just about to press the button to
lire one OF our big guns when a gun
ner's mate was seen to grab at some
thing on the wall of the turret and then
fall in a heap on the floor. The officer
pressed the button. but the gun was not
discharged. When the mate came TO he

Ballast as Distributing Agency

Ballast is the first of the distribu-

under the head of agency of man" The
discharge of earth ballast by vessels
coming from abroad has been a notable
means of distribution Of plants by seed.
We have just seen how many seeds may
terminate from a very small lump of
earth, and the possibilities in this direc-
ton OF the many thousands Of pounds
of discharged ballast are very great. In
fact, the ballast grounds in the neigh

favored botanical collecting spots; they
have usually distinctive fora of their
own, and from these centers many

How To Find Out

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is evidence of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire to uri-
nate or pain in the back, is also convinc-
ing proof that the kidneys and bladder

FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1898.

There should be little or no OPP
position in the Legislature to the
appropriation of $4,000 for main
tanning the proposed annex for
oonsumptive patients of the ma
tive race at the Queens Hospital.
Queen Emma and her spouse
founded the institution TO be free
to the Hawaiian people, and it's
establishment has been a great
boon to foreigners though they
have to pay for its benefits. 1t is
indeed sacred trust to the nation
for preserving in complete effici-
ency. Advanced science has found
that consumption is a commune
able disease, so that it's treatment
in general hospitals is menace to
patients suffering from other all
ments. Some not despicable medical
authorities have dissented from
the conclusion, but there are
causes other than caution for hav
ing copsumptives segregated from
other invalids, besides being kept
as much as possible from personal
contact with the well. Hawaiian
consumptives, however, have a
prescriptive right to the shelter
and attendance provided for their
race in the Queens hospital. Ii
scientific and other reasons make
it necessary to separate them, pro-
vision must be made for that pur-
pose. Being at least a semi-na-
tionsl institution presided over
by the head of the state, the res.
possibility for the due efficiency
of the hospital devolves upon the
state. Therefore all reasonable
support from the public treasury
is virtually imperative. Ten
thousand dollars in the financial
period of two years might indeed,
without any legal obligation, be
put to much less beneficent and
proper uses.
