ITEMS OF INTEREST.

Louis Smith, a Chicago man, had a gold
mine until Postofice Inspector James e
Stuart called and seized his stock alons
with his printing press and plates. Mr.
Smith had been printing postal cards for
about two years and he was certainly
working Uncle Sam.
The sheriff 1t Bridgton, N. j., the other
day sold the whole village of Halberton
for 81, 600. 1t was started in 1893 as a col
only for Russian Hebrews of New York,
but proved a failure. The property con-
sisted of nearly 5000 acres of land, zoe
houses and large factory building.
Within a few years the accuracy in the
production of both fiat and round sur
faces has been so increased that the speed
of engines has been multiplied by three.
With the curat bearings of the pres
ent, the tripled speed gives less trouble
from heating and cutting than did the
slow speed of former years.
Willis l.. Moore, chief of the weather
bureau at Washington, has asked for n
patent on what he calls a gravity air.
cooling, drying and purifying machine.
The cost of the machine will be so small
that it will be within the reach of all.
Professor Moore says his machine is the
result of several years study and expert
ment, and is now so perfect that tiere
will be no trouble in keeping a room at
a temperature of between 70 and Y de
grees. 1t is so simple and one can ma
nipulate it and move it from room to
room with perfect safety.

The horses pulled and tugged at the
bit and tossed their heads impatiently.
The clanking of sword and scabbar1 be-
gan to luil my mind, and my eyelids be-
gan to droop. Through the light gray
of the early morning, the figures Of the
troopers looked ghost-like and shadowy
as they swayed automatically with the
motion of their mounts, and the low
hum of voices came to my ears as from
afar. The soft, sucking thud of the
horses hoofs on the corduroy road, act
ing with the early mist that hung over
the valley, began to send a feeling of
droWSiness over me, and my eyes slowly
closed. The world had been shut out
from my view but moment, when I
became conscious of something riding
beside me, something cold and silent and
in moment my eyes flew open.
The men were just as 1 had last seen
them, and for a moment I laughed at
my sudden fears. But gradually an OBJ
ject, black, silent and mournful, began
to close in upon me, and even as I
looked, figure after figure began to
spread throughout the troop until there
were thousands of them riding amongst
us.
I looked at the one cantering beside
me. lie seemed TO breathe cold Damp
ness, and involuntarily I wrapped my
military cloak closer round my body.
He was black from his skull-tight cap
and loose coat, to the powerful charger
he rode-a deathly black. He was tall
and gaunt, and in the light breeze that
had sprung up, his clothes tapped loosely
about his bony frame, and his horse,
though galloping alongside of mine, gave
no sound as its hoofs struck the road.
An orderly came riding from the rear,
and rode straight for him. A worning cry
was on my lips when, to my horror, the
trooper swept past, having ridden
through my companion as though he
were nothing but air. For moment
reeled unsteadily in my saddle, but a
grim chuckle brought me to myself, and
sat upright to find what had once been
a human face, staring at me. 1t needed
but a glance at those sunken hollows
and whitened bones to tell me I was
looking at a skeleton.

l shuddered, and swerved my horse
from the phantom. But in an instant,
without any visible effort, he ieaped his
charger over to my side.
"'Well have work here today" he
croaked, work, work"
I shivered slightly, and glanced at a
low, fiat line, far down the valley, and
through the rising mists, thought l could
distinguish the CLEAN of a cannon. So
these were the trenches we were to
charge. Even as l thought, a white
puff, a duh boom and the shrek Of a
shell awoke the echoes of the dAtant
hills. And the Hussars of Death had
work to do.
At my elbow bugle blew, but scarce
ly heard or understood the notes. I saw
Thousand right arms bend, heard the
scraping of steel on tin, and in a mo-
ment a thousand blades flashed in the
air, breathing defiance at the smoke
ahead.
Around me I could dimly see strained
and bloodless faces, trying to look en-
coura"ement at one announcer. But my
eyes were not for them. Far as the eye
could reach were hosts of black figures.

waiting but Tor the signal to begin their
work.
Out from the works ahead leaped a
tongue of flame, to be followed by a
snriek Of agony. Through a rift in the
vapor I caught mcmentary glimpse of
trooper lying in the road, the ghast-
ly multitude surrounding him in exuIta-
ton.
Our first recruit gfbbered the one
in black, clicking his horrible jaws to-
gether, "our first recruit"
His words and the sight Of the man
set my brain on fire, and gripping the
bride rein in one hand, I rose in my
stirrups and swung my sabre for ms
head. The sword passed through him
as it would have passed through space,
and I fell back in my saddle, sick at
heart, his hooking laugh ringing in my
ears.
The bugle blew the charge, and the
blades flashed higher and brighter in the
morning sun. Forward swept the troop,
onward swept the phantoms. The shot
and shell tore gaping holes in our ranks,
and as each man went down. a host of
twisting spirits gathered around him,
their long black coats Tapping round
their frames and blowing back every

particular work of Bethesda, giving
something of its history. Very few
changes have been made since it's or
