portunity to see the land of perennial
bloom and sunshine, and wearied with
long, long months of labor in the serv-
ice of the Red Cross, the girl had will
ingly accepted their invitation. Coaled
and provisioned, the transport. had
pushed on for the seven-day run for San
Francisco; but the recovering of his
long-lost son and the soft, reposeful at
mosphere of the lovely yet isolated is

that in family council it had been de-
cided wise for them to spend week
or ten days longer at the Royal Ha-

wick, that followed swift upon the heels

they together, and this, the fifth, had
been spent in sightseeing beyond the
lofty Pail of the northward side. The

Yokohama even as. they drove away;
and as they sat at dinner on the open
lanai, long hours later, it had been
mentioned by their host that the Sedg-
wick, too, had reached the harbor dur
ing the afternoon, and that army peo-
pie were passengers on both liner and
transport. Billy Gray, for one, began:

LITTLE, BUT OH, MYl
How a Low-Sized Lawyer Impressed
Timid Servant with HIS
Importance.

The following story issattributed to Sem
ator Vest, says the Chicago Tribune:
Before the war there was lawyer in
independence, Mo-, who was the counterpart
in appearance of the pictures of Pickwick.
He was as fussy in his manner as hen with
brood of ducks. One day he nearly broke
in the door of residence by his vigorous
use of the knocker. The disturbance was
answered by a darby, who was frightened
out of his boots as he opened the door.
where's your master?' thundered the law
yer. and before the darky could answer the
lawyer repeated his question. Then the
darby replied that he was not in.
suppose not Numbered the lawyer
again. We'll, mind you, now, mind you,
when he comes you tell him l want to see
him-want to see him at once Understand?
Tell him j. Brown Hovey, attorney at law,
wants to see him at once, at once.'
with that Mr.. Hovey turned and disap-
peared in a futter. When the master came
he asked his servant if anyone had called.
The darby was still in his fright, and with
his teeth chattering he replied:
Yes, sab, dar was asleetle, funny look
ing name come, an he said dat was, to tell
you dat Brown j.. Hovey,de eternal Lord,
want ter see you right away"

THE TRAINED DOG,

Early in the seventies, said n lawyer,

were strolling along the side of the creek
when there was 4 stir in the brush. and
the next moment big black dog sprang
out, crossed our path and plunged into
the water. In less than half a minute a
tall. gaunt man came crashing through
the scrub. with gun in his hand and
blood in his eye. lie halted on the edge
of the creek. raised his gun and fired at
the dog. which had almost reached the
other side. The shot was failure. for
the dog bounded up the bank, shook him
self and disappeared.
The gol darned thing cried the man.

ing his fist toward the spot where the
dog had vanished. Then he turned his
eyes toward us and took stock of us.

His wife and children were distracted,

that the man couldn't live.

gro was easily traced. He lived with his
wife in Il hut near the bank of the river
1t was not known that he owned a dog,
but it was found that the dog which fg-
ured as the chicken thief was owned by
the man for whom the negro worked and
that it was always with the negro except
when he drove it away. There was no
doubt that the man had trained the beast
to steal chickens and TO bring them alive
to him. There WAS nothing ~: ever to
connect the negro with the killing of
james Hinney-that. l remember, was
