sion house, where Mott would meet
him, settle up and proceed to Buff

CHAPTER XVII.

Benton's murder was certainly the
sensation of the week in Manila, for
there were features connected with
the case that made it still more per-
picking, even mysterious.
Maj. Farquhar, who must have seen
young Foster frequently at Fort
Averill, had been sent to survey the
harbor of Iloilo and could not be-
reached in time, but DR.. Frank, called
in course of the day to identify the
remains, long and carefully studied
the calm, waxen features of the dead
soldier, and said with earnest con-
viction:
"This is undoubtedly the young
man who appeared at Col. Brent's
and whom I sought to question, but
who seemed to take alarm at once
and, with some confused apology.
backed away. He was dressed very
neatly in the best white drilling sack
coat and trousers as made in Manila,
with fine straw hat and white shoes
and gloves, but he had fuzzy beard
all over his face then, and his man
ner was nervous and excitable. His
eyes alone showed that he was un-
strung, bodily and mentally. / set
him down for crank or some one
just picking up from serious illness
The city is full of newcomers, and
as yet no one knows how many stran-
gers have recently come to town +
saw him only that once in a dim
light, but am positive in this identi-
fication."
Twoor three non-commissioned off,
GERS of Benton's regiment were ex-
amined. Their stories were concise
and to the point. The young soldier
had come with the recruits from San
Francisco along late In August. He
was quiet, well-mannered, attended
strictly to his own business, and was
eager to learn everything about his
duties. They "sized him up" as a
young man of education and good
family who hadn't influence enough
to get commission and so had en-
listed to win it, He had money, but
no bad habits. lie helped in the
office with the regfmental papers,
and could have been excused from

wanted him, but he didn't wish to be
excused from guard or drills OF pa

learn all there was in it. Even the
rough fellows in the ranks couldn't
help liking him. He had pleasant
word for everybody that didn't bother
him with questions. He made ono

shows himself as mean and thorough
going scamp as can well be con-
ceived.
He does not see fit to give us back
our furniture, which we have express
ed our willingness to take, but sells it..
He then has the audacity to say that
five pictures are not from the collections
to which they were alleged to belong
when he purchased them from Mr..
Werthemier''
Mr.. James said: "One Asher Werthe-
| mier is a dealer in bric-a-brac in Lon
| don. AS has been stated, Miss Anna
Gould married Count Castellane and
with him went to Paris to live and be-
come a citizen of that country. Mr..
| Werthemier became acquainted with
the couple shortly after their arrival
and during the years 1895 and 1896 and
afterwards sold them paintings and old
furniture. To gain an idea of some of
the trasactions l will show you two
transactions. One was the sale of
wardrobe for $125,000 and $4,000 for a
conmode, on representation that they
We're made by old artists.
I'VE hold that this court is without
Countess Castellane and is without
power to determine what part of her
income Is necessary for the support of
herself and children. This Is an at
tempt to collect a debt that has not
been established. BY the answer which
the defendants interpost, the honesty
of that debt is questioned Even
though the court had jurisdiction the
will of the late Mr.. Gould would pre-
vein the maintenance or collection of
the claim, for in a codicil to his will,
Mr.. Gould expressly provided that no
beneficiary under the will should have
power to cucumber the share to which
he or she was entitled"
Colonel James then quoted number
of authorities to show that 1t was law
full and just for a person to so place
his estate in the hands of trustees and
to so provide that his heirs should not
be allowed to contract debts in antici-
patton Of their income.
Colonel James asked the court to dis
miss the injunction and let Werthe-
mier have his redress in the French
court, to which both the defendants are
subject. Decision was reserved.

SHOOTING BY AID OF TELESCOPE

The use of the telescope as an aid to
sharpshooting will be an important fac
tor in the modern offensive tactics of
infantry. AS far back as the civil war
the telescope mounted on a military
rifle, did deadly work at long range,
though comparatively crude in con-
struction. The Improvement of the ri
1e within recent years has made the
question of telescope sights much more
important, the killing range being far
beyond the scope of the human eye
A man could hit as at distance of 5000
yards. Some of the wonderful shots
made by the Beers are to be attributed
to telescopes, manufactured by the Cat
aract Tool and Optical company of
Buffalo. About a year ago this COM
pany mounted telescopes upon several
Mauser sporting rifles in accordance
with orders from its New York agent,
The company has since learned that
these rifles were shipped to South AT
RIGA and no doubt are some of the
weapons which have been used so eff
