this county appears satisfied with the work
or the county officials In keeping the estab-
nshment closed. The warning given by
Sherin Collier to the hackers of the insti-
tuition after their arrest and release on
Dan. coupled with the fact OF the sheriffs
daily vigilance, has had the desired effect.
The resort has been deserted by both op-
orators and patrons since Wednesday, and
no FEAR Is entertained of the resumption of
business at this point.

Thugs and Assassins Of India, Persia

The treachery and powers of dissimula.

Filipinos were characteristic of the Thugs
Of India and the Assassins of Persia The
former systematically planned ito insin-

their victims. The latter's catechism, pre-

sassinations, which the records concusiveIy
fasten upon the insurgent Filipinos, were
committed without even the excuse of re-
ligious fanaticism, and these murderers
sink lower in the scale than the strangers

as cruel, tortured and brutally murdered

The Filipino bands are not so highly or
ganized as were the Thugs and Assassins
The latter were far more numerous and
powerful and more worthy to be treated as
a nation.
All three organizations exercised a pow
erful influence through fear on the people
and chiefs in their neighborhood. The As
sassins' reign of terror in Persia has been
duplicated in Luzon.
The Assassins were serious obstacle to
the march of the Crusaders; the Thugs OPP

the Filipino murderers are brushed aside

American progress.

81 didn't mean that; meant-in
the matter of-a loan"
'No, not lately"
She looked the surprise which she
did not put into words.
"But you did borrow money, didn't
you?"
"Yes."
"And you paid it back?"
81 did; or rather, we did. Mr.. Girls
void came into the firm just then,
and put in enough capital to pay US
out of debt"
She was twisting her handkerchief
around her fingers, and otherwise
displaying a degree of embarrass-
ment which was quite foreign to her,
or to Haymer's knowledge of her.
"Would you mind telling me how
much it wasp"
Not at all; it was $95,OOO"
$50 much as that? Somehow, /
have never thought of Mr. Griswold
as IA capitalist. But it was a good
investment for him, wasn't it?"
at would have been if we had not
had this strike"
She paused again, and again as
saulted as one who will not be daunt-
ed.
"How much has the strike cost you,
Mr.. Raymer?"
"a great deal more than it would
at almost any other time. We had a
number of time contracts with for
FIXTURES, and they have lapsed, of
course. One hundred thousand dol
lars wouldn't more than make us
whole again"
$50 much as that! All of Mr. Girls
wold's money, and more" So much
she said, and then she was silent un-
til her nervousness began to be con-
tagious to Raymer. At length she
said: "You know Mr.. Griswold pret-
ty well, and love him; and 1 know
him pretty well, too, and-and like
him. Did he ever tell you how he
came to have so much money!"
'Why, no. In fact, 1 never thought
enough about it to be curious. From
the little he has told me about him
self 1 have gathered that he inherit
ed something from his father, and
that accounted sufficiently for his
means"
Now Griswold had been more con-
fdential with Margery than he had
ever been with his business partner,
so she knew the story of the slender
patrimony, and of its spending. But
what has here been written down of
Margery Grierson has been ill-written
if it has not shown her to be far
more discreet than her sex or her
age would bespeak. And because she
was wiser than her generation, she
went swiftly aside from Griswold's
affair.

DeadIv Illuminating Gas.

1t is asserted by writer in an
American medical weekly that cases
of poisoning by Illuminating gas are
on the increase, and he attributes this
to the use of the so-called water gas,
which contains a high percentage Of
the deadly gas called carbon monox-
ide. In Massachusetts,, a law so limit
ing the proportion of this substance
as practically to exclude water gas
from use, was repealed abOut13 years
ago. Since that time, there have been
459 deaths from inhalation of gas,
while in a period of equal length pre-
ceding the repeal of the law there
were only eight deaths from this
cause. Carbon monoxide is not only
fatal in large quantities. but it pro-
duces a general condition of ill-health
in very flight proportions, and the
writer believes that many puzzlins
cases of decline in physical vigor are
to be attributed to almost inapp7eci-
able gas-leaks.-Success.

Proof of the LORDS Kindness.

As one of the great Atlantic liners
was nearing the end of its voyage re-
Gently wealthy passenger on board
gave champagne supper TO the other
male passengers. Each one of those
invited was to render payment by
singing a song, dancing jig or tell
ing story. Among those on board
was one person who had won a repu-
tatiOn for mOrOseness, for in spite of
the constant stream of moss-grown
tales which one is forced to listen to
on shipboard he had never tried to
revenge himself by telling one of his
own. Accordingly when his turn
came to speak everyone listened
eagerly.
Gentlemen" said he as he rose to
his feet, Il can't sing a song or tell a
story and have never danced a jig,
so I can only offer conundrum. In
what way is the Lord kinder to a
turkey than to man?"
Of course everyone gave it up.

After this she drove home to don
her simplest gown while the man was

She made a long round in the

and ended there, and was a house-to-
house visitation in the quarter occu-
pied by the cottages of the iron
works men. She saw few of the men;
but she did better. She saw and
talked with the wives of lie men.
What she said to the women, and
what her saying of it was like to ac-
complish was set forth in a brief con-
ference with Edward Raymer at the
iron works Office-a conference with
which the morning of conferences
ended.
She found Raymer alone in the
office, and was glad enough for that.

of me for meddling in this" she said.
when she had told him what she had
been doing.
"You may say very justly that it
wasn't any of my business; but saw,

woman to do what all you men could
MT seem to do. So did my part, and
now if you'll do yours, believe the
trouble will stop right where it is"
IloN r a1 he ri of
it, and gave praise where praise was
due, taking her hand and letting his
eyes say more than his words.
81 think you are the bravest little
woman 1 ever heard Of" he said,
warmly. 81 haven't the least doubt
in the world as to the success of
your appeal, and no one but a wom-

made it. You may be sure that Girls

and made as if she would go, but that
was only because her courage threat
ened to fail her while yet the major
half of her errand was undOne. She
fought brave little fight, and then
went back to sit down beside him.
''There is something else," she be-

just how to say it. May say any
thing 1 please?"
Certainly. The privilege would be

indeed, and went about to explain
that the Bayou bank was his bank.
Griswold listened respectfully, said
All? it must have been a thrillino
experience" " and said no more. And
IL he had been from his earliest child
hood the closest student of the va
rious methods of averting a crisis he
could not have done better.
A little interval of smokers silence
intervened, and Griswold was the
ETst to break it. The thing he had
come to say admitted no preface. so
he began in the midst.
What 1 came here this morning to
tell you, Mr.. Galbraith, may strike
you as an odd thing with which to be-
gin an acquaintance; but as we have
no mutual friends, and as common
justice is, or should be, more far
reaching than mere acquaintance, 1
felt it my. duty to come. 1 happened
to hear the other day that you were
likely to become interested with Mr..
Grierson in the Red Lake pine lands.
Was my information correct?"
Andrew Galbraith's eyes looked
their shrewdest at this, but he an
swered in the affirmative, and Girls
wOld went on.
Pardon me if I seem impertinent,
but is the transaction cOncluded?"
The banker said it was, in effect;
that it wanted but the passing of
check to its conclusion.
'It involves a good bit of money,
doesn't it?'
''It does that, but it's fine chance
to make money"
MAY ask upon what you base
that statement?"
'Why, my dear sir! upon the stand
ing pine, to be sure. At the present
rate of consumption, fve-year hold
ing of good-sized bit of virgin pine
land will treble it's value"
"Of virgin forest-exactly. But
this particular tract you are buying
has been culled and re-culled for ten
years or more"
''Wha-what's that you're saying?"
Andrew Galbraith staggered up out
of his chair heavily, and GriswOld
saw again the terrified president of
the Bayou bank as he had seen him
on that mOmentOus morning in the
private office in New Orleans. But
this time the start was only mOmen-
tary. Mr.. Galbraith sat down again,
and picked up the cigar he had
dropped in the shock of it; picked it
up and wiped it carefully with true
Scottish canniness.
81 think you must be mistaken, Mr..
Griswold," he went on. 81 have file
of expert reports thick enough to
make book!''
Griswold rose and held out his
hand.
81 have done what I conceived to
be my duty, Mr.. Galbraith-a rather
disagreeable duty at that-and l
hope you'll pardon me if 1 have
seemed Unwarrantably meddlesome.
But 1 also hope you will send an ex-
perienced land locker whom you can
trust absolutely before you let that
check pass. Good morning"

CHAPTER XXVuI.

In the matter of the armistice
Margery was as good as her word
and a little better. She did not go
over to the enemy promptly upon its
expiration, as she had said she would.
Instead, she gave her father another
and a final warning.
"Oh, pshaw! what can you do?"
was his rather contemptuous rejOin-
der when she reminded him that the
peace protocol had expired by linn
itatiOn.
"That is neither here nor there"
she returned, coolly. you will find
out what can do if you drive me to
it."
'Bah!" said the man, ''to do you've
got to know. You don't know any
thing about my business"
"This is your last word, is it?"
"You can call it anything you like.
Go ahead with your pigeon shooting
any time you're ready"
Margery bit her lip, gave a little
sigh, which might have been of dis
appointment or of remuneration, and
said no more.
But the following morning, after a
call upon some newly come guests at
the resort hotel, she made it a point
to stumble upon Mr.. Andrew Gal
braith, who was smoking peaceful
cigar on the veranda. The purpose
of the stumbling was meant to be
very obvious; was obvious, since she
made it the occasion of inviting the
banker to join the party in the
launch for an afternoon on the lake.
But after she had given the invita-
ton and had left him, she went back
to say:
"Oh, by the way, Mr.. Galbraith, I
think papa has heard something
more about those pine lands-up at
Red Lake, you know. They are not
worth nearly as much as he thought
they were. think he is trying very
hard not to believe it, but
She stopped abruptly, not because
of any maidenly embarrassment, but
because she had the rare faculty of
knowing when she had said enough.
Mr.. Andrew Galbraith's smile was
shrewdly inscrutable, and what he
said touched upon the pine land mat
ter only as it might be a dOubP en-
tendre.
81 thank you, Miss Margery. I
shall be very happy to join your
launch party"
From the summer resort hotel on
the lake edge, Miss Grierson drove
to the telegraph Office and sent
brief message to a far-away mining
camp in the Rockies. What she wrote
on the square of yellow paper was
well within the ten-word limit, but it
was fraught with consequences to Jas
per Grierson out of all proportion
to its brevity. ''He has broken faith,
and you may come," was the message
ticked off by the wires into western
space. And when she had paid for
it. and had seen it shot bullet-wise
up the pneumatic tube to the oper-
ating room, she sighed again. 1t was
another bridge burned; a bridge Of
price to a young person whose am
Litions were chiefly social.
The Bourbon news., 1902-09-26

81 think that is al had to say
she said, rising again. 'AIl excepting
one other thing, and that is harder
to say than all the rest"
Raymer rose with her and took her
hand again.
'After what you have done, it
mustn't be hard for you to say any
thing to me, Miss Margery."
"But this thing is hard-for me,
not for you. You say you keep your
account at the Wahaska National.
Keep it somewhere else, Mr.. Ray
mer."
He bowed in ready acquiescence.
'l'n transfer it at once-and without
asking why 1 should do It" he agreed.
"But-but it is right that you
should know why" she faltered. "My
father does not like you. Need 1
say more?"
He pressed the hand he was still
holding and smiled down upon her
from his athletic height.
you needn't have said that much.
I have good cause to know it. And
that makes your loyalty and good
ness of heart all the more wonderful
to me, Miss Margery. 1 hope the
time will come when I can show you
how much 1 appreciate"
She snatched her hand away and
turned from him. Though he meant
it not, he was slipping into the con-
ventional attitude and it was more
than she could bear just then. Good
by" she said, abruptly, and before he
could offer to help her she ran out
sprang into the low phaeton and
drove rapidly away.
Raymer stood at the Office door and
watched her out of sight. Then he
went back to his desk and sat down
to fall into musing excursion which
led him far away from the matter in
hand-the matter of the strike and
its probable composition in terms of
peace. At the end of the reverie, one
of its conclusions slipped into speech.
"They may say what they please
about her-the mother and Gerty-
and the most of the things they say
are true; but away down deep in her
heart, under nobody knows what a
sandbank of trouble and hard-living.
there is a vein of the purest gold.
1 guess I couldn't say that if 1 were
in love with her; and yet"

How a Russian Lady Brought a Bru-
tai Manchu Noble to Her
Feet.

The Siberian railroad traverses the
greatest wilderness that steam has
ever been set to conquer. The tanning
of our western prairies and mountains
was a small task compared to this sub
lection of the Siberian wastes. An eX-
perience on a train, related by writer,
in a VladivostOk paper, reminds one
of the early stage coach days beyond
the Mississippi, and seems even more
violent because the participants in
the adventure were not rough plains
men and mOuntaineers, but a lady and
nobIeman, says the Youths Com
panion.
When the train pulled dupat Tsitsikar,
in Manchuria, a Manchu noble, who
had bullied all his fellow passengers,
alighted at the station restaurant, aft
er warning them that he would decapi-
tate any of them who took his seat.
During his absence a smartly dressed
young Russian lady entered the car,
and despite the alarmed expOstula-
tiens of its occupants, calmly appropri-
ated the seat.
When the noble returned he flew
into a passion, and advanced threat
eningly with his curved saber drawn.
But the young woman cOOlly covered
him with a shining revolver.
do you take us for a pack of cow
ardly mandarins?' she exclaimed, and
then, pointing to her feet, she re-
marked: Here is your place, my hero"
The Manchu noble surrendered, and
sat at her feet for the rest of the jour
ney.
