tied walls ON either side of the street
There were but few passersby; but i
seemed to me that there was an un-

could make out vaguely. for it lay
about a third !. of the way down the

very existence I had forgotten, and he
sat at my feet gazing wistfully up al
my face, with eyes that told me he was
wearied.

moment he was on my shoulder. where
he sat light as a feather. / gave an
other look down the road and at the

This augured ill, but it was no time to
draw back, and singing a CHEEKY catch,
1 stepped forward, and coming boldly
up TO the door of the house, found my
self stopped by Crequy of the archer
guard.
'.Diablei' 1 exclaimed. II have come
to see my gossip, Lorgnac. What does
all this mean?'''
Il know no more than you, LIE Brus-

will find him on the opposite side of the
road with two of my men; but he is as
sIliky as a bear"

'-Ah, Well" That is their affair. I'll
drop a consoling jest in Lorgnac's ear
and be off. Au revoir.''
''Au revoir,'' fls-s
In few steps / was across the road
and beside Lorgnac. He was standing
looking the picture of detection, be-
tween two stalwart archers
''Oh, no, mon amir / exclaimed. as 1
embraced him: 80 you have engaged
pilots for the Chateleti'
The archers laughed at this reference
to them; but Lorgnac seized his chance
and whispered quickly in my ear:
Z The horse is in the stable behind
Barou's shop: there is a chance by the
window and he slipped a key into my
hand.
Never fear" 1 answered loudly,
you shall be free tonight. 1 shall see
my gossip Henri, and we shall finish
that DArbois of mine before tomorrow
morning. Adieu, then. until we meet
again. 81
And, waving my hand to Crequy, /
turned back and walked off at rapid
pace, Pompon once more following at
nv heels.

me abruptly, crossing the pavement

carefully about him. as if he had missed

slipped away to my balcony, here to

IN puffs across the Seine-here to think

looked at me. The creature had an in

taught him TO do things that We're
scarcely credible. There as he sat.

platter beside him.
So quantity grave was the little beast
that he distracted me in spite of myself,
and. rising I approached him, saying.
with a laugh:

show me way out of my troubles?"
For answer he crept closer to me. and
we looked down into the yard be-

the rue ST. Thomas de Louvre. The

lower servants of the palace. and it was

One of the smart Washington spe.
cial correspondents gives to the world
his ideas of Agoncillo, the clever Fill.
Pine now in Washington. He says:
Smooth of exterior, yet prick his skin
and the Filipino is still savage. u
Some great writer said many years
ago, prick the skin of any civilized
man and you'll find savage under
meath so the idea is not original and
applies as much to the correspondent
as to Agoncillo. The would-be smart
correspondent also speaks of one of
Agoncillo's characteristics which is pc
culiarly savage-that is his love for
gay clothes and highly colored neck
ties. If that is a sign of savagery
there are millions of them right here
in America. Some of the leading men
of the country wear flaming red neck
ties and it is more than likely that
at the time the correspondent wrote
his senseless stuff, he was attired in
a green plaid suit, red shirt and blue
necktie.

President Alderman Of the Univer-
sity of North Carolina seems to be op-
posed to the devilish scheme of the
moss back legislators to divide the
school fund along race lines. Address
ing the committee he said:
mo matter what we do about SUI
frage, we must educate the masses
that their path will be to true worth
and not to politics. Ignorance is no
remedy for anything. We cannot tie
to ourselves a body of death. The
school money must be administered
wisely and equally divided between
white and colored.'' -
It is pleasing to note that President
Alderman is, right on the question: Of
education, even if he is wrong on that

Lying and supplying influences of
slavery to- divest himself of it's silly
notions. The Southern legislatures
are largely composed of little cross

almost self-evident proposition that

from ignorant, poverty-stricken cit

to educate not the classes, but the

ed to be a man of the classes, it is

secret of the attempted legislation in
North Carolina and Arkansas to di-

woman who is leader of the band prac-

promiscuously and said that she would

of promoting the growth of t'holiness'
and if a lynching occurs down there
no one need be surprised. To lynch
white woman for criminally assault

be new performance or change of

1T is not so much the presence of the
Negro; it is the manner in which he
comes that is objected to. It is not
the nurse that is objected to, but the
Congressman and Bishop who thinks
he is as good as you are. That's the
thing that makes my hair stand on

is not after the low, degraded Negro:
he's all right. The effort is to be
made to degrade those who have

. Sunday thousands of Cubans stood
amid pouring rain in Havana and
listened to patriotic eulogies upon
Jose Marti, the Cuban patriot and first
President of the Cuban revolutionary
government. The tendency of all
the speeches was toward the ultimate
independence of Cuba, which the ora
tors recognized as fact not yet &C
complished. Juan Gomez, a mulatto,
with considerable reputation as an
orator, made the best speech of the
day. He counseled irmness, concord
and determination as means to gain
the coveted independence. Among
other things Gomez said: "The pow
er which has interviewed between the
old regime and the one we are striv-
ing for is unfamiliar with the ways
and habits of our race The people
Of the United States are so used to mis-
treating mebers of the dark races, that
it will not be strange if many attempts
are made to draw the color line.
The Cubans must realize this and keep
it in mind. They must calmly indi-
cate mistake when it has been made
and see that the error is corrected"
