der Capt. John Lannan, he was promoted
to sergeant and the same year was as
signed to the duty Of a detective.

rest Of the Gegro Harris who was charged
with having assaulted young woman Of

fenced to death, but the. sentence was
commuted to twenty-five years imprison-

Mrs. Travers has quite made up her

he'll propose tonight"
The idea is preposterous; the man 8
old enough to be your grandfather!
Well. how about the program ?
Rhoda handed IL to me.
What on earth are all these blanks
for? Stop, though there's hierogly-
phic against them

tone, where's Alist-Mr. Grahame to-
nlght?"
"Alistair Grahame," said, with a
sudden flash of comprehension, "why
out In the district at Kotanhuli; he
said he would be back for the ball"
When did you see him last?'
The morning he left. And all those
dances for him. Rhoda? Do you mean
to tell me"
Rhoda nodded violently and became
absorbed IN the study of her program.
Good heavens! How blkid I've been!
I'D no motion of IL. Rhoda. has he---?'
"Yes.he has. interrupted Rhoda. He
was TO have his answer next day. then
he was ordered off into the. district
suddenly,and l haven't seen him since.
I've been so wretched; Major dear. do
you think he'll come tonight?"
"Of course he WILL" answered
cheerily: hes gone out to some beast
ly little village along the river. He said
he would put up at Kotanhulli bunga-
low and be back by tonight. Rhoda,
dear. I'm awfully glad. AHstair's
right good fellow and you will make
him jewel of n wife,"
The shadow deepened in the girls
eyes as the evening wore on and there
was no sign of Alistair Grahame.
Next morning 1 left the station for a
months leave on the Hills. and ten
days later i picked up Times OF In
dia" In the library. only to be startled
by the announcement of the total dis
appearance of Mr.. Alistair Grahame.
All efforts 10 find a trace OF him had
been unavailing. and 1t was feared he
had met his death by foul means.
Alistair Grahame had been a friend
of mine, though many years my junior.
and It cut me TO the heart TO think
that my little Rhoda should have her
ffe's happiness so suddenly snatched
from her. I gave up my leave at once
on hearing the news, and returned TO
the station to see what could be done.
All efforts. however. seemed unavail-
ing.
Nothing had been seen OF him sinca
the day he left cantonments for Ko-
tanhull bungalow. He took no SER
want with him only n ooolie To carry his
traps. and who. OF course. was not to
be found. The old butler at the bung-
allow swore he had never been there.
and none OF his things could be dis
covered. His pony came home to his
stable three days afterward with his
saddle still on. Grahame had been
man OF many hobbies. though an ex-
cellent officer. and his hsbn OF wand

hand. taught him many things that the
natives considered IL was not good a

VICTORY FOR Mr.. KEITH. .

Speaking OF the recent fiasco Of the
attempted Opposition" to Keith =
theatre in Boston, where Manager
Hashim OF Philadelphia for FOUR weeks
maintained what he termed Fashions
able vaudeville" at the Boston theatre
the Rersiblic of that city says:
"The premature closing IL his next
door rival CD is a great victory for
Manager B. f. Keith. 1t is also a VIC
aory for the very best element in stage
art. The name OF Keiths theatre has
stood always for excellence and purity
in vaudeville. His rival CD thought he
understood better the temper of Bos-
ton. theatre goers. and he infused more
ginger which in this case meant vul-
garity, into his entertainments. That
he was mistaken is shown by his fall
ure to draw good houses. while MIR.
Keith found IL necessary to open the
old Bijou frequently to- accommodate
the overflow. Such bills as Mr.. Keith
has presented cannot but attract large
audiences: and he promises a contin-
uance Of the policy"

and allowances. an additional $500.
His total income, therefore, is Gl5Sl

tish admiral on the home command re-
ceives from G3420 to G3s67. The Ger-
man captains salary is E390 that of

man lieutenant ian command has E195,
an English lieutenant IN the same posi-
tion R20l To G2I4. A chief Inspector
of machinery atioat in the British navy
has $3.50. in Germany only $3.50. A
British fleet surgeon has e493 to G602.
German $3.50. 1t will thus be seen
that the British officers all through.
are I'm better pecuniary position than
those i'm the German fleet German
marine officers are usually taken from
the same rank as in England.
Before becoming a midshpman, or
sea cadet as he is called i'm Germany.
the youth who intends to devote him
self TO the navy must be aole to pass
satisfactory examination on the level
10 which a fifth-form boy at am Eng
lish public school has attained. His
first years services spent in study and
military exercises on shore. the study
of the English language being a promi-
nent part of his work He is then
placed on training ship for year
and after passing a satisfactory exami-
nation he is removed to the marine
ship for another year. The technical
knowledge obtained here Is then en-
ployed for two years at 80 and should
the candidate for the naval profession
prove fSmself competent he IS promot-
ed at the end OF these two years TO the
rank OF lieutenant. During the first
ten years OF a German naval officerS 4
career his income falls short Of his ex-
pendlture by sum OF $500: that is 20
say. In addition TO his pay he requires
ON an average ESQ year TO keep him.
In the British service the average ex-
penditure OF an officer in addition To
his pay is EOS year.

present at the charge of the Twenty
fifth Infantry (colored) OH Mount Ara
yat at the time when the Filipinos had
ordered the execution of five American
prisoners who were in their hands, and
he says that this occurrence was one
of the most tragic in the entire history
OF the war in the islands.
He rode over 800 miles OF the islands
with only seven companions, during
which time they had some very mar
row escapes from harsh treatment at
the hands of the insurrectionists. He
declares that the natives there can
keep up sort OF desultory fighting for
so years IL they want to. and an army
OF considerable proportions will have to
be constantly maintained TO preserve
order.
THE rich state OF the islands n be-
yond the comprehension OF Ameri-
cans" he says. ''and the rush there for
business purposes will be very great
when the situation is fully appreciat-
ed"
