old mans glance was stern and unfor-
giving. Further back in the row of
faces Ronald saw Dawes, full to his
great staring eyes with tender awed
concern. Some feature of Hasbrooke's
reminded him of Evelyn, and he fell to
plying her with his whole heart. He
told himself she would hear the adj
verse news on her fathers return
nomc-the news that he was to be q
common prisoner in the county Jail
until the spring. He fancied he saw
her white face full of despair.
BEDDING was turning the leaves of
big tome on his knees and as he took
no notice of his client the latter sank
SO deep into his ooze of dependency
that he did not hear the preliminary
proceedings of the court. He came to
himself only when DR.. Sloan had be-
gun speaking. The physician was
saying that, owing to the critical con-
dition of a patient, he hoped that it
would be admissible for him to testify
without delay. After little discus
sion his request was granted, and the
doctor took the stand and kissed the
edge of Worn Testament. 1t was his
opinion, he said, briefly, that Harris
death had resulted from wound in
the lungs made by the ball for which
he had probed and which he held in
his hand.
Here the solicitor rose.
SIS that the ball you found in the
wound, doctor?" he asked.
at is, SIR" responded the witness.
CDR. Strong," pursued the solicitor,
estate to the court if it is fact that
you found the dead man with a revolver
tightly clutched in the fingers of his
right hand"
''That is quite true, Sir" said DR..
Sloan. "Thad Williams said that he
died holding it, and that he"
"Your HONOR" broke in Redding, on
his feet in an instant, 1--WE object to
what Thad Williams said.''
The judge nodded as he admitted the
justice of the objection. The solicitor
stepped to the table of the magistrate
and took up sgd Harris revolver, which
lay beside Ronald's, in view of the en-
tire room.
"Is this the revolver to which you
refer?" he questioned, casting calm
look of satisfaction round the circle
of lawyers within the railing.
SIT is, sir.''
'"There is one more question:" said
the solicitor, with a smile, "and then
we are through with you, DR.. Sloan.
You are satisfied in your mind that
sgd Harris death was brought about
by the ball you found in his body, and
thatthe ball came from that other pistol
lying on the table-the pistol we shall
prove was carried by the prisoner"
Eyes, I am quite satisfied" the
witness paused. II am able to swear

Sacred Ground.

The ground on which a foreign le-
cation stands is considered as belong
ing to the country whose flag floats
from the legation roof. Surprising a
member of a foreign legation in Lon
don committed a murder, all we could
do would be to Suggest "a favorite
diplomatic word, always used, ex-
cept in relation to China) that the
offender should be sent back to his
native country and punished there.
Some time ago, when certain gentle
man, whose name was we'll known at
the time, was kidnapped into the Chi
nese legation, an, inspector from Scot
land Yard Immediately proceeded
thither and released the prisoner.
This was a most serious breach of
international law, and was intently
discussed Gin diplomatic circles"
Since the Chinese legation is part and
parcel of China. an invasion of the
Celestial empire was thus made by a
Scotland Yard official. Chambers

that the ball found in him was the
cause of his death, but 1 cannot, of
course, swear that the ball came from
that other revolver"
"Well, that will do" said the solicitor,
and he turned TO Redding. 1.-The wit
ness is with you," he added, with an
easy smile, full of confidence.
Reddng got to his feet slowly.
II don't know, your honor" he said,
"thnt can think of anything just now
to ask the Witness" and he stood nerv-
ously pinching his nose as he leaned
against his chair and rocked back and
forth, a defeated look spreading over
his face. However, he soon pulled HIM
self together.
"You say, DOCTOR" he asked, "that
you are not ready to swear that ball
came from the revolver of the pris-
oner?"
Before answering, the witness, who
still fingered the bullet, took up Harris
revolver and fitted the ball into the
end of the barrel. Then Ronald, whose
eyes were on his face, saw him start
and turn pale, as he hastily put down
1Iart's revolver and picked up the other.
He was nervously trying to place the
bit of lead into it's end when, with an
exclamation of astonishment, Redding
strobe to his side and stood watching
him with widening eyes. Ronald saw
n broad smile spread over Redding's
face, and then he came back to his place
flushed with triumph. Ronald was non
plused. Rcdding seemed electrified as
he bent down and put his lips TO his car
THANK God, my boy" he whispered,
I'm goin' to wipe up the ground with
'cm. Damn 'em, l won't leave a whole
rag on 'em!"
To the prisoners surprise, he re.
sumed his nonchalant attitude on the
back of his chair, which he hitched
about until he had secured his bal
ance. The magistrate looked bored, as
he smiled over at Wrinkle. The solicitor
was engaged in conversation with Thad
Williams and did not seem to note the
bewildered attitude of the witness on
the stand.
You are sure that the bullet in your
hand was the one that caused Sydney
Harris death?" questioned Redding.
"He's already sworn that" put in the
squire, sharply; 1--WE must not go over
the same ground twice. 1t will take
all day to get through"
TITS important enough for i'm tc

ding, calmly, and then, as he contin-

voice rang out SO clear and loud tina,
the solicitor looked up in establishment
'Dr. Sloan, is it not your opinion that
the ball in your hand could not possibly
have come from the revolver belonging
to my client?"
There was profound stiffness in the

The coffee-growing industry in
tropical Africa is developing tremend-
ously. The seed was introduced into
the country about five years ago by
some English missionaries with the
object of aseertaining whether the re-
sources of the country were favorable
to the culture of the article. The
ground appears peculiarly adapted to
the industry. since last year 100 tons of
coffee were exported from Uganda
alone, and the result of this years
production will be even greater.
