CHAPTER XVI.

Gielow came hack to consciousness
through o maze of dreams. He seemed
to be in the studio laughing at Henri
for draping a curtain awkwardly. Next
he was with Dorothy in the conaerva-
tory at her home; she never had
seemed SO beautiful. Then a swift
draught of cold air seemed to be strik-
Ing his feet and ankles. She held some
flowers towards him and he tried to
take them, but could not lift his hand,
or stir a muscle. She glided away,
melting into a vast bank of orchids, but
when he essayed to follow his feet
seemed chained to the floor. He gave
a sudden cry Of terror as she vanished,
and his voice seemed to rebound from
the walls and ceiling, which appeared
to have contracted. Then he awoke and
found himself enveloped in such pro-
found darkness that he wondered If
his soul were released from his body
and adrift in space.
Great God!" he exclaimed. what
can this mean? Where am II"
He tried to recall his latest conscious

numbed. Everything was chaos. He
moved his hand, and felt q clasp of
cold steel on his wrist. He heard a
chain rattle. Aghast-terrifed ineffa-
blythe moved the other hand. 1t, also,
was chained to the stones beneath him.
He attempted to draw up his feet. They,
too, were manacled.
Then he lay %motionless and tried
once more to recall past events. Dor.
othy! Yes, he remembered calling on
her and humbly confessing his sor-
ROY for having publicly quarreled with
Caruthers. She had readily forgiven
him, and shed tears at something she
would not explain. He remembered
telling her that he was not going to
the reception at the Palace hotel the fol
lowing night. She understood that he
shrank from being seen publicly,
though she begged him to go and dance
nee with her. She reminded him that
Caruthers was away, but even that did
not alter his determination. He left
early, for she and her aunt were going
to the Horse Show with Count Bantinni
and it was almost time for her to dress
Then he remembered how hard he
worked all the next day, and how he
threw himself that night on a lounge
and tried to sleep. Finding this i'm,
possible, and longing to catch sight Of
Dorothy as she alighted from her car
riage at the reception, he went to the
hotel and stood around in the crowe
ear the ladies' entrance. Here he wa,

said In a gentle tone. "You have evades

and will prove 1t. Come with me to m,

Gielow went with him to his cham
beers In the next block. It seemed t,
him, from Bantinni's tone, that he ha,
something important to communicate
Then what had happened? All. yes

Gielow made no answer. He had
folded his white lips together as II to
keep them in subsection.
"You seem to have little CURIOSITY"
went on the count. "You have good
control over the features, but I can
make you writhe. What II I were to
toll you that since you have beenhere
you have with your own hand written
to your sweetheart confessing your
crime and saying that Count Bantinni
had followed you for days and nights
trying to get you to give up your awful
scheme, and that you had finally eluded
his vigilance and carried out your plan
unknown to him"
Gslow's very soul seemed to die with
In him. He closed his eyes to shut out
the diabolical visage Of his tormentor,
but even through his eyelids he saw
the red glow Of the lantern and felt the
presence of the inhuman fend.
"And than that" continued the
voice Of the Italian. you have writ
ten a letter to the police acknowledging
the crime and expressing your inten-
ton OF leaving America for good. They
are trying to catch you, but when they
fail and have forced me to testify
against you'll say forced, for it would
be unseemly in q friend to volunteer
such information-and after my state

had writhed visibly.) well. remem-
Der my power. She would have been
my wife long ago but for the clause in
the will pertaining to Caruthers. Ihave
always believed that a great murder
could be committed without the perpe-
traitors ever being detected, and I have
carefully worked out the details Of this
plan"
The strain was too much for the de-
pleted physical condition Of the ill
starred prisoner. Bantinni seemed to
be talking to him from a great distance.
Then came the sound Of the iron doors
closing, the turning of a key in a rusty
lock, darkness, silence, soothing uncon-
seriousness.

Glendive Independent, Mont. - The
cold-blooded murder of Sheriff D. Cav
anaugh has aroused considerable feeling
throughout the state, and everyone hopes
that his murderer may be apprehended.
Everything possible is being done by the
coroner's jury to find evidence that will
give the officers of the law something to
work on. Many rumors are current, but
the well-balanced jury are giving moth
ing away that will implicate any person
with the crime. Justice will be done and
the murderer will be found in time.
Sheriff Cavanaugh's funeral Tuesday,

NEWS FROM IRELAND
Hath Time Grown Old.


Why paint we Time an ancient man.
His limbs grow weak and old.
And in his nerveless hold
A rusty tailsman?
Hath Time grown old?
Doth not the sun his course fulfil;
The fleeting seasons follow on,
From ruddy spring to winter wan.
Unceasing, constant still?
Hath Time grown old?
One day is as another day,
One year is as another year;
Yet, with the passing of his bier;
A man doth fade for aye.
Hath Time grown old?
Unto all things Of earthly brood,
The Ruling Wisdom hath assigned
A resurrection, in their kind;
Man never is renewed.
Onward the sequent ages roll
Relentless; though the hope of youth
Crumbles to age, ambitions tooth
Still gnawing at the soul.
Time grows not old!
Peace. Man shall but begin to be,
When, like a crumpled scroll,
The skies to ruin roll
When dawns eternity!
When Time grows old.

1t IS a long document, full Of

We can not give the message

OF exported manufactured ar
ticles, this country sent abroad
33S, 900, 900 and odd thousand

1t exceeded that of imported
manufactured articles something
that never happened until 1898
and 1891.
! Our expenses exceeded our IN
come $50, I'LL, $685..
This fiscal year our income, it
is estimated, will leave a surplus
of $40, 100000.

ton of Congress, and we need

American Review.

American Review.
II is usual, know, for military mer
to sneer at the generalship, or want
OF 1t, which, as they allege, was respon-
sible for the Majuba disaster-these
critics are wise after the event It is
forgotten that the Beers met other Of
ficers than General Colly at Bronkhorst
Spruit in a number Of fights about
Pretoria, PotchestroOm and other vii
lagos, and that in no case were our
men and military leaders able to stand
up to the enemy At Durham, In Natal.
in lS4S, we got the worst Of 1t, as we
did at Doornkop, where English officers
Of the ordinary type commanded. The
only military success which Engllah
officers can claim in a good many en-
counters with the Beers is the battle
OF Boomplaats, fought In 1S4S between
artillery and flintlock guns. It is,
thereforei nonsense to take refuge be-
hind the lack Of generalship Of our lead
ers. II such factors as courage and
leadership do not come into the con-
troVersy except to very limited ex-
tent, In what direction must we look
for the explanation Of our defeats?
AT Lang's Mex the action began by
our guns dropping few shells into the
BOer lines, and, rs admitted by the
Bo'rs themselves, the small loss they
suffered from the fre-GeneraI Joubert

men reached the Boer lines, the others
being stopped short distance away: |
and, as they were unsupported, these

side, against "a Beers killed and wound

lay, our men, with the two guns, were
during the fight leaving
lead and wounded on the ground. The
'oers also left the field at night. At
his fight the Beers crept up to within
ixty yards Of our guns. They lost II
