REMANDED.

Never shall forget the misery Of
that walk back from Cavendish square
to South Kensington. / rang the bell,
and the peal had not died away before
poor, heavy eyed Janet had opened the
door to me. Without word she led me
into her morning room, the room where

and having made me sit down would
not let me speak until I had partaken
of some refreshment I filled my glass,
but pushed my plate away from me. ]
could drink, but was far too miserable
to eat
"Janet," I cried, 'sfor heavens sake
tell me, as quickly as you can, all that
has happened!'
"My poor George" she said, "as I
told you in my note, Allie has been ar
rested. You had not left the house more
than quarter of an hour before two
men called and asked to be allowed to
see me on most important business.
They were shown in here and when we
were alone requested permission to see
Allie. went to fetch her and brought
her down with me. Then one of the
men advanced toward her with paper
in his hand and said, Allie Dunbar, in
the queens name I arrest you on a
charge of piracy upon the high seas
Oh, it was horrible, and can see it all
now!''
"And what did my poor girl say?''
Nothing. She was just as calm and
collected as she always is. She simply
took the paper from the man q hand and
looked at it, after which she said:
There mug be some mistake. However,

thing I'm certain OF, however, ana JnaJ
is that I should like to have five min
utes with Mr.. Barkmanswortn alone. I
think then he'd know that
But what ] was going to say was in
terrupted by the entrance of the officer
who had brought me to the room.
Time up, I'm sorry to say, sir.
I rose Immediately and turned to say
goodby. Being good hearted fellow,
the man left us alone together for an
other moment, and during that time
was able to whisper an assurance to my
sweetheart that no stone should be left
unturned to secure her release. Then
bidding her be of good cheer, / passed
out, feeling as if the bolts changing be-
hind me were closing on my heart.
1t was we'll after o'clock before I
left Bow street and turned homeward.
The shops in most cases had their shut
tiers down, but though looked for a
newspaper board it was some time be-
fore ! sighted one Then for the first
time saw the headline I had been
dreading:

stopped and bought a paper and
then continued my journey, pausing at
a telegraph office to send wire to my
old chum, Brandwon, in which asked
him, as he valued our friendship, to
come to me without a moments delay.
When got home, Ichanged my clothes,
had cold bath, which restored me
somewhat, and then ordered breakfast,
which / felt could not touch, and while
it was preparing sat down to read the
account of the arrest, 1t was but short
report and published the barest details.
Nine o'clock had just struck when a
cab drew up at the door, and Brandwon
jumped out. opened the front door to
him myself, and as did SO felt as if
we were one step at least on the road to
Allies release.
''Look here, my friend,'' he said, as
led him across the hall to my dining
room. "This is all very we'll, you know.
but what in the name of fortune makes
you send for me at this unearthly hour?

Janet kissed Alte and cried oUer her.
Have you poisoned patient and find
yourself in need of me to square matters,
or have you been Tilted and hope to
bring an action for the damage done to
your broken heart? Out with it. But
forgive my chaff if it's anything more
serious
He must have seen by my face that
something was every wrong, for his joe
ular manner suddenly left him and he
sat down all seriousness.
"There is something very much the
matter, Brandwon," ! said. "Read
that. y
handed him the morning paper and
pointed to the paragraph detailing the
arrest. He read it through, and then,
seating himself at the breakfast table,
poured himself out cup of coffee and
buttered piece of toast before he spoke.
When he did so, he said solemnly: r''I
think understand. You are interested
her defense. Is that sop
"That is exactly what want. was
at my wits end to know what to do,
when suddenly it flashed through my
brain, Send for Edward Brandwon.' I
sent that wire accordingly, and here you
are IT there is any man living who can
save the woman love, you are he."
"I'll do my best, you may be sure,
for your sake, old boy. Now where is
! she?'
AT Bow street. She is to be brought
before the court this morning at IL
| o'clock. -
| He took out his watch and looked
at it.
"Well, I've none too much time. I'll
60 down and have an interview with
her at once. Keep up your heart, old
chap. Well do our best, and nobody
can do more"
| wrung his hand, and then, mailing
a cab, he jumped into it and set off for
the police station.
Long before 10 o'clock was in the
court, waiting for the examination to
come on. The news of the case must
have gone abroad, for the hall was
densely packed with people anxious to
catch glimpse of the famous Beautiful
White Devil, whose exploits ware al.
most as we'll known in England as in
the east. Every rank of life seemed to
be represented, and when the magis-
trate took his seat on the bench no.
| ticed that the chairs on either side of
him were occupied by two illustrious
personages whose dignity should have
prevented them from giving such an ex-
hibition of idle curiosity. Seeing the
rush there was to stare at my poor, un-
fortunate sweetheart, could have found
it in my heart to hit out like mailman
| at those round me.
Precisely at IL o'clock the door on
the right hand side of the court opened
and Allie stepped into the hall and as
cended the iron dock. She walked with
her usual queenly step, held her head
high, and when she reached her place
looked proudly round the dingy hall.
Such was the effect Of her wonderful
beauty upon those present that, despite
the efforts Of the officers of the court to
prevent it, loud buzz Of admiration
came from the spectators. She was
dressed entirely in BLACK. color which,

TO QUARANTINE.
A Shotgun Patrol to be Established on ths

At the suggestion Of DR.. E. B. Swan,
secretary Of the state board Of ofhealth,
and DR.. W. NJ. Martin, county health
officer, the commissioners decided yes.
terday to establish quarantine on
the south line Of Sumner county, to
protect the county from smallpox,
which is prevalent in Oklahoma. G..
A. Miller, chairman OF the board Of
county commissioners of Harper
county, who wasin Wellington yester.
day. agreed to establish a quarantine
on the south line OF Harper country.
Ills likely that the same thing will
be done 10 Barber county. An effect.
i've quarantine against Oklahoma will
then be in force in Montgomery,
Chautauqua, Cowley, Sumner, Har.
per and Barber counties, thus rro-
tecting Kansas from the Infected dis.
trict in Oklahoma. With a auaran-
tine established against Kansas City,
Kansas will be reasonably safe from
the invasion OF the disease.

antine along the south line OF Sumner
has been left 10 Commissioner Lock

depot at Hunnewell and at the Rocl

Whether this scheme proves effectua
or not, remains to be seen. The rail
roads will be served with notice OF tht
quarantine, and warned not to sci
tickets in Kay county to any pOinr
outside of that county, under penalty
of a state law imposing fine of s5Ol
for each and every violation OF tn,
order. The expense of maintaining
the quarantine will be borne by eact
OF the counties in which the quaran
tine is enforced, and tue counties will
look to the next legislature for re
endorsement. The state health boarC
has had no emergency fund at its di,
pOSal for use in such instances as thi.
Ia the past five years. 1t is expected
that there will be no trOuole in yet
ting the legislature to pas an appro
prlation bill to reimburse the count
les, as the quarantine is being estab
Iished as much for the benefit of thc
entire state as for the counties alopl
the southern border.
Mr.. Lockman expects to establish
the patrol in this county tomorrow Of
