But the swarthy youth whom the
others called De Sille, he who had been

was more seriously injured. He had
worn a thin steel cap on his head which
had been cracked by the buffet he had
received from the mighty fist of the
master armourer. The broken pieces
had made a wound in the skull, from
which blood flowed freely. And in the
uncertain light of the torch Malise
could not make any prolonged exami-

Potion bowed respectfully and was
withdrawing, too we'll trained to smile
or even lift his eyes to where Sybilla
stood by the window.
His master appeared to recoilect him

"A moment, Poitou; there are some
troublesome people of the city rabble at
the door. Bid the guard turn out and
thrust them away. Tell them TO strike
not too gently with the flats OF their
swords and the butts of their spears
Giles de RetZ listened for some time
after the disappearance OF his familiar.
Presently the low droning note of the
popular execration changed into sharp
with cries of pain
Then the marshal smiled and rubbed
his hands lightly one over the other.
That's my good lads he said; hear
you the rattle of the spear-hilts upon
the paving stones? They are bringing
the butts into close acquaintance with
their ill-shod feet. All, now they are

the rudiments of the art in him before
setting out from the tourneying field at

Then lending the prisoner his viOI
wherewith TO amuse himself, and lock-
ing the door, Laurence made an excuse
to go TO the kitchen. where he laughed
low to himself, chuckling in his joy as
he deftly handled the saucepans.
Aha, Master ShOltO. YOU are the
captain of the guard and d knight, for

Thus headlOnE Laurence communed
with himself, not knowing what he said
nor to what terrible adventure he was
committing himself.
But Giles de Sille of the house of the
Marshal de Retz. being left TO himself
in the half darkness OF the garnet, took

that with which the charmer wiles his

Kill them every one!" cried his COM
panions, advancing to the attack with
q confidence borne of numbers and the
consciousness of fighting on their own
ground.
But ere they reached the four men
who had stood so quietly, the Scots
had gathered their cloaks about their
left arms in the fashion of shields, and
a blade, long and stout, cleaned in
every hand. Still no armor was to be
seen, and though somewhat discon-
certed, the assailants were by no
means dismayed.
Come on-let US revenge De Sille."
they cried.
Lord, lord, this is gaun to be a sair
waste o. guild STEEL grumbled Malise;

O. swords, without doing them mucl1le
hurt, Ladies', ladies, be warned and
gang decently hame to your mithers
before a worse befall James, tell them

For having vented his anger in the
first buffet Malise was remorseful.
There was no honor in such fighting.
But all unwarned the youthful rOyster
ers of Paris advanced. This was a
nightly business with them. and indeed
on such street robberies of strangers
and shopkeepers the means of con-
tinuing their carousings depended.
It CHANGED that at the first brunt of
the attack Sholto, who was at the
other end of the line from his father,
had to meet three opponents at once.
He kept them at bay for minute by
the quickness of his defense. but being
compelled to give back he was parry
ing couple of their blades in front
when the third got in thrust beneath
his arm. 1t was as if the hostile sword
had stricken a stone wall. The cheap
and treacherous blade went to flinders
and the would-be robber was left star
ing at the guard suddenly grown light
in his hand.
With quick backward step Sholto
slashed his last aSsailant across the
upper arm, effectually disabling him,
Then catching his heel against a step
he fell backward, and it would have
gone i'll with him but for the action of
his father. The Brawny one was pro-
foundly disguised with having to waste
his strength and science upon such a
rabble, and now at the moment of his
sons fall he suddenly dropped his
sword and seized a couple of torches
which had fallen upon the pavement.
With these primitive weapons he fell
like a Whirlwind upon the foe, taking
them in flank. a sweep of his mighty
arms right and left sent two of the
.assailants down, one with the whole
side of his face sacrificed from brow
to jaw and the other with his mouth
at once widened by the blow and her
metically closed by the blazing tar.
Next Sholto's pair of assailants re-
ceived each a mighty buffet and went
down with cracked sconces. The rest
seeing this revolving and decimating
fire still rushing down upon them as
Malise waved the torches round his
head turned tail and fled incontinently
into the narrow alleys which radiated
in all directions from the Hotel de Por-
mic.

Unless the courts intervene In the arranging

machinery Of the borough is in control OF John
p. Madden. and at me etinR OF the Dem ocratic
County Committee hold last week he m ade one
OF the brightest political moves on record
In Queens county. which has had the
effect Of spreading CONSERVATION throughout
hostile camps. Previous to this meeting 1t was
a time -honored custom among the Democrats
OF the county to elect delegates at the various
primaries by towns or districts. In the last
few months considerable local opposition de-
veloped to the present administration OF
affairs In the borough. and In every town. vii
laEe and district whore the opposition
gained any Roadway. the kiokers were
prepared to put a ticket OF thoir OWE
In the field at the coming primaries. But
Leader Madden nipped those projects In the
bud. By q resolution adopted by the County
Committee II was determined that the ticket
naming the delegates for the various conven-
tions should be voted for In It's entirety
throughout the borough. By this move all
well-laid plans Of various local agitators were
the field and making the issue local. they
will have to get up a ticket for the entire
borough. containing more than one hun
dred candidates. and these tickets will have
to be circulated and and voted through
out the entire borough. Under the old
form OF primary voting former Mayor Glsa-
son OF Long Island City saw some hope OF
getting several OF the delegates. while the
sutphin forces felt positive OF carrying of del
egates from both Flushing and Jamaica. and
1t was figured that with a com bination of
forces the fight would be made inter-
esting for Mr.. Madden. But Mr.. Mad
den's move has upset their calculations
entirely. The move 10 intensely popular

plan will be carried through On the other
hand, the opposition assert that they have en-
