Prof. Leosaldow, the Egyptian Palm

revelations created such furore in Ban

matter of how long standing, The Pro-
fessor clearly demonstrates to you the

try is a science. Any one can acquire it.
Proficiency depends upon study and ex-
perience. In all the larger cities Palmistry
has been making great progress, classes

very brilliant and noted persons are adj

DESTROYS of having plain and truthful

enough to tell about their parcel; but
they were soon enlightened.
Like frightened flock of sheqp they
found the usual gathering Of women
huddled on the courthouse steps. The
Rev. MIR. Brownell, Timothy Drew and
the one eyed druggist, towering in home
made palmetto hats above the sunbon-
nets and the bare heads of the feminine
majority, represented the masculine ele-
ment.
"Well, what noW?"
Miss Melanie joined them, red faced
and breathless. She took off her sun
bonnet to fan herself as at least half a
dozen women undertook to answer her
at once.
Out of the confusion Of tongues she
extracted the facts of the case. The Ma
rine brigade was even then ransacking
the houses in the lower end of the town
with the avowed purpose of searching
for arms and hidden soldiers.
Miss Melanie was crisply ready with
an opinion.
"Bless my soul, then, we had all bet
ter have staid at home! They are not
going to find any men hidden on my
premises, OF any guns either, but they
will find plenty else that they won't be
above walking off with. Who rang that
bell anyway
''It was rung by my ORDERS said the
Rev. Brownell. 81 think at such
junctures as this it is always best to
seek wisdom in friendly counsel"
"Mhp' said Miss Melanie, looking
resolutely away from the speaker. sis
Miss Belknap here?'
'No; she seldom comes to our meet
ing. Why?"
because she is about the only one
this news concerns very nearly. 1t must
be about time for them to be getting
here with the captain
81 will take great pleasure in warn
ing her at once," said the minister,
making step forward.
.'Not if l can help it," said Miss
Melanie, with decision. "Men are scarce
Just now, and it doesn't matter what
sort they are they can't take step
without attracting attention. For you
to go to see Miss Belknap while those
marauders are swarming over the town
is just to tell them that she is either
hiding some one or expecting to. One
of us women can better go out there
with our arms full of bleached palmet-
to. She is the busiest hatmaker in all
Cloverdell, and those scamps know just
exactly how we spend our time. What
do you all think?''
Miss Melanie's plan was unanimously
Endorsed, and the Rev. Mr.. Brownell
accepted her snubbing as a part Of his
daily burden in those days of female
ascendency.

taking the present market value as
basis. They came to the conclusion the
general house furnishings were worth
about $500 and could be replaced for that
amount.
On cross. examination the witness stat
ed that the exact appraisal was $3.50. 80.
He based his figures on what the furn1-
ture could be bought for new today.
Mr.. John N. Long was recalled. He
said he assisted Mr.. Mcdonald in making
the appraisal of the furniture. Mr.. Long
said he had been in the furniture bust
ness for IS years and was familiar with
prices. New furniture, similar to that in
the house could be bought for $500, AMI
if the property there had been sold at
second hand it would not be worth more
than $500. .
On cross.examination the witness said
he saw some crockery but it was not
worth more than 50. He saw also q
small amount of silverware, but did not
nav any special attention 20 it.
Police Officer Pillsbury told how he
had discovered the fire and pulled the
alarm. He said that Mrs. Cain was COM
fortably dressed when he saw her. When
he reached the house after pulling the
alarm, Mrs. Cain said to him, Don t
break anything. [ would sooner see it
burned than broken" She also asked
about the box in which she said she kept
