the keys of the strong room and safes. All
this they accomplished without a hitch.
Analysis of the cards with which we had
played in that barely-furnished sitting
room established the fact that the hand

with a very strong and subtle poison,

right hand. had produced paralysis. sud-
den collapse, and a state so closely re-
sembling death that they themselves had
been deceived.
Two of the greatest PSYCHOLOGISTS de-
clared in their evidence that the manner
in which those cards had been prepared
showed the gang to be past masters in
the art of secret assassination, and with

no doubt it was intended to consign both
my own body and that of the poor Aus

had undoubtedly been buried secretly at
some remote spot.
The elaborate forethought and ingenuity
with which the whole thing had been
planned was little short of marvellous. and
1t was only the unfortunate failure of the
medical evidence to establish the fact that
Mr.. Massey's death had been accomplished
by foul means that prevented a verdict of
"willful murder" against them both.

As Her grandmother Did.

She can ask you in Greek IL her hat Is on
straight.
And order the ices I'm Hindostanee;
She is learned i'm horses, at golf she is great,
This maid of the twentieth century,
She knows all the tactics of Briton and Boer.
OF Aggys campaign is there nought from her
hid;
But If ever a spider crawls over the floor
She will jump on a chair-as her grandmother
did
She reads the quotations in copper and coal.
And can talk TO you glibly of discounts and
pars:
She has theories as to an elephants soul.
And what they are probably doing in Mars.
To masculine greatness she does not defer.
And would question the claims of a Bayard or
Cid;
But il ever Tire right man comes wooing for her
She will blush and say yes-as her grand
mother did.

Love came at dawn when all the world was
fair.
When crimson glories. bloom and song were
rife;
Love came at dawn when hopes wings famed
the air,
And murmured, Il am life
Love came at even when the day was done,
When heart and brain were tired and slumber
pressed;
Love came at eve. shut out the sinking sun,
And whispered, L am rest

INSTRUCTION OF VOTERS.

Instruction of voters in the prepare
tion and casting of their ballots is by
no means the least important duty dc
vulying upon party workers. In view
Of the rather complex system for
which the Territorial law provides this
detailed instruction should not be con-
feed to the so-called Ignorant" vot.
er and those who have never taken
part in the elections before.
Many a man who has voted straight
tickets under the Australian ballot sys-
tom in vogue in the States is in danger
o. having his ballot counted out
through mistake occasioned by over
confidence and the belief that he knows
just what to do. In the majority Of
tie States the Australian ballot law
separates the candidates under dis
tinctive party headings, Republican
and Democrat. To vote the straight
ticket requires only single cross OPP
rosite the name of the party. Only the
voter who scratches" the ticket marks
the names of individual candidates.
All the names are on one ballot and all
ballots are cast in one box. The way
NJ the straight ticket" voter is made
as easy as possible.
Hawaii, ever prone to conditions
quite different" has an election law
| n NM ant l~ax On. aaly sNtt Inn :
complex and difficult for the straight
voter as for the mugwump with no par
ty affiliations.
According to the preparations made
by the government under our election
law. there will be four separate bal
lots-two for delegates and one each
for senators and representatives,
three distinct colors to be placed
in three separate ballot boxes. The
two ballots for delegate will
contain three names; the voter
marks a cross (X) opposite one AMI
Faces his ballots in the box for dele
gate. The ballot for senators contains
tho names of all the candidates for SEN
ator arranged in alphabetical order.
The voter on this island marks six.
Still another ballot contains the names
Of the candidates for Representatives
in alphabetical order. The voter IN
each district marks six names. Hav-
ing marked the four ballots, the voter
deposits each in the special box pre-
pared for 1t. A mistake in the mark
ing or placing a ballot in the wrong
box nullifies the ballot.
This is all done in strict conformity
with the law, but to carry out all the
details of casting a ballot correctly
might puzzle Philadelphia lawyer In
fact the lawyer confident that he knows
IL all might be more liable to error
than the young man who casts his first
ballot. Every voter should see to II
that he thoroughly understands the
method of voting, both to insure tho
counting of his ballot and prevent de-
lays. Time alone will be an important
factor on election day and unless the
voters are rustled up early there Is n
possible danger Of the full vote not
being taken before the hour of closing
the polls.
