Mrs. Munroe and Mary were delighted
to see Paul back; and the old lady, to
quote Lem again, ''excelled herself in the
magniicence Of the spread she set be-
fore them that evening"
Mary, who seemed very nervous, went
out soon after supper; she whispered for
Lem to remain up for her, saying:
at may be important for his sake.
"You don't mean to say there is more
deyilment on foot?" asked Lem.
Mary nodded and was gone.
1t was past midnight when she return
ed, and she looked worn and haggard.
Lem heard her coming, and met her at
the head Of the stairs.

In reply, Mary, who must have been
ubiquitous, told about the arrest and re-

would take her wherever she desired to
go, had driven her back to the place from
which she had fed
"Merciful heavenv' cried Lem, "we
must keep this from Paul. This is excit-
ing, and if he heard it, it might kill
shin.'

CHAPTER XIV.

While Raul Neville and his friends
were trying to effect an entrance, Cheat
ham and Carpenter were inside, listen
ing, and Miriam Hermann, who had inn
prudently drank cup of coffee which
the black man brought her, by Cheat
hams orders, was lying on the bed in
profound soporific sleep.
One of Cheatham's minions, whose
duty it was to watch Mary and Lem
Dodd, had come in a short time before
and reported the arrival of a carriage
in Puella street.
With that prophetic insight that is
born Of cunning and dread, Cheatham
dispatched his minion to the nearest sta
ton for police officers-fearing that an
attempt would be made to rob his house
that night The police oktcers respond
ed in the manner described. And as

WHITE MAN HAD FREE SMOKE.
Negro Who ThrewAway the Good Cigar
Offered Him Match.

Negro Who ThrewAway the Good Cigar
offered Him a Match.
An amusing scene took place in front
of McVicker's Theater one day last,
week. Standing within the portico Of
the building was a negro of a distinctly
classic cast Of features. Dressed in
a Newmarket coat, which evidently
was just out of the hands of tailor,
light gray trousers, and tan shoes,
whose polish was Immaculate, he could
not but attract attention.
AS several passers-by stopped to look
at him he took cigar from his pocket
and pensively lighted it. AS the smoke
drifted across the sidewalk it carried
with it an aroma that proclaimed the
Havana to be one of the choicest
brands on the market. The negro
smoked it for moment and then, be-
coming somewhat absent-minded, al
lowed it to go out. He did not attempt
to relight it, but threw it from him.
the cigar landing on the edge of the
sidewalk.
AS it described its parabolic curve
through the air white man, evident
ly an ''out-of-work," saw it, made q
rush, and as it touched the ground
picked it up. The negro saw the act
and the slightest shadow of an anus
ed smile passed across his face. Slowly
and almost majestically he unbuttoned
his coat, reached down into his right
hand vest pocket, and drew forth a
match. Then. with bow that was
perfectly Chesterfeldian in it's execu-
ton, he handed it to the captor of the
discarded smoke saying pleasantly:
s'Now you are all right, old man.
The match was presented without
the slightest trace Of superciliousness.
1t was accepted in the most matter-of-
fact manner. and the men parted with
the utmost dignity and politeness.--

one of the back windows open and gained
an entrance. They blew the outer door

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Cables from
Admiral Remey and General Chaffee,
both at Taku, bearing upon the condi-
tions in Pekin and at Tien Tsin, came
to hand over night. Admiral Remey
confirmed the information that the
legations We're safe up to the 22d inst.
General Chaffee said that according to
report at Taku, the allied forces We're
to begin the campaign "toward Pelzin
tomorrow" Allowing for the time oc-
cupied in the transmission of the dis
patch by boat from Taku to Che Foo,
it is probable that if the report was
true, the advance begun Tuesday and
the armies are already on the way to
Pelzin. That they should start without
waiting for Chatfee's force, small
though it is, is surprising.

from China and Minister WI, who
called at the state department in search
of information, was also without cable

Colon, Colombia, Aug. l.--Surprise
has been expressed at the ease and COM
pleteness Of the victory of the govern
ment forces over those of the rebels in
the battle OF Monday, July %. The
reasons most generally ascribed for the
failure OF the insurgents are that there
he'd been rupture letween the leaders
i'll the rebel camp and that there was
little discipline among the troops, who
disregarded the generals orders to en-
trench and prepare for attack Instead
they attacked and We're met with Il
whitening fire, which resulted in hor-
rible slaughter. Under the direction
of the government officials the work of
cremating the corpses of those who fell
in the battle is proceeding. The odor
from purifying bodies and from the
pyres pervades the atmosphere of the
city.
