plane in the same proud, exclusive but
rather dull circle.
There's no denying it: the older cir
Giles are dull. They realize it. Some
times they take refuge in impregnable
pride; and more often, they copy the
ways of the lively foreigners if they
can. The money that pours into some
Golfers from magic America makes all
those living the Strengthened life Of
aristocratic poverty disconnected.
The cure? Set the son of the poor, but
proud, house in turn to catch "une

Lively enough is the American col

the senior w. K. Vanderbilt is in town:
when Tom" Walsh, of somewhere in
the mining west, is entertaining his
lively boon fellow, the king of the
Belgians; when Mrs. Delamar and Mrs.
George Law and Mrs. Mackay are en-
tertaining; Miss May and her set are
present; and for touch Of the comic.
when some Spartacus j. Best is irving
to "Parkhurst" the town and make il.
moral! Let John Labusquiere, the
only Paris alderman born in America.
PROFOUND at the same time some mirth-
provoking proposition like his famous
bill to tax every printed novel four
cents, and you shall see Paris talking
Of the Americans, and of little else:
and not averse to seeing more and
yet more American money coming to
stay.
As-if the dear girls are really bent

rands-Perigord of to-day are collater-
al But they are a great family in
France, perhaps not the less great in
that the most illustrious of that name
was so closely linked with Waterloo
and St. Helena.
For, on the whole, the American col
ony is on good terms with the most
ancient of French aristocracies, that
of Faubourg, of the names that ante
date the revolution, those that felt the
terror. The American girl who is by

this charmed but rather dull circle.
For variety, there is the lively Baron

of John O'Brien, of New York. This
is a spicy title, redolent of piquantly
amusing tales from the boulevards.
And-again an abrupt transition
there is the former Miss Singer, who.
with dollars sewed together into a
great fortune by the needle of
famous sewing machine, gained the
title of Princesse Poignac. which de-

which France for a hundred years

But while he theorized upon the
probabilities, he was fully alive to
the necessity for prompt action. If
Miss Farnham had discovered him,
she would doubtless lose no time in
giving the alarm. She might even
now be in conference with the cap
tain, he thought.
AT this he had his first shock of
genuine terror. Up to that moment
he had suffered none of the pains of
the hunted fugitive; but now he
knew that he had fairly entered the
gates of the outlaws inferno; that
he should never again know what it
was to be wholly free from the ter
ror of the arrow that flieth by day.
The force of the Scriptural simile
came to him with startling emphasis,
bringing on a return of the prickling
paralysis of fear; but he shook it
off and ran aft to rummage under
the cargo for his precious bundle
For the whistle was sounding for a
landing, and it was high time that
he was afoot and fleeing. But when
his hand reached the place where the
bundle should have been, the blood
surged to his brain and set up a
clamorous DINING in his ears. The
niche under the coffee sacks was
empty.

CHAPTER VI.

Charlotte Farnham's friends were
wont to say of her that she was as
sensible as she was beautiful. She
was, as Griswold had guessed. of New
England lineage. Her parents had
migrated for the health of the wife,
but the migration had been post
poned too long. The mother died in
the early Minnesota days. but the
daughter lived to grow up unspoiled
and beautiful.
She. had been spending the winter
at Pass Christian with her aunt. who
was an invalid: and for the invalid's
sake the return passage was taken
on the "Belle Julie" On the morning
of the second day out, when the New
Orleans papers came aboard. the two
of them were sitting in the shade
of the hurricane deck aft. Charlotte
bought paper and read the account
OF the bank robbery with a little
gasp of belated horror.

invalid.
Charlotte read the reporters story.

THE WAY REPUBLI-

As time goes by, knowledge of
the means that we're resorted to
to defeat Bryan begins to leak out.
Here for instance is a dispatch
from Iowa, a special to the Chi
cago Chronicle, which processes
to be a Democratic paper but
which opposed the election of
Bryan in 1896, was treachsrous in
1900 and is all the time as good a
party organ for the Republicans
as they could ask for. The Chron,
icle published this dispatch On the
2sth, It tells is own story;
The Republican State Central
Committee has been notified the
railroads will not allow free trans
portation to students Of the col
leges Of the State who desire TO 60
home to vote. The railroad off
cials say they began the practice
in 1896, when, under strong pres.
sure to prevent the election Of
Bryan, they aided the Republican
campaign management as much as
possible. Now they hold there is
no necessity for it. "
Railroads are not excusable for
giving free transportation to serve
a political purpose. They are pub
lie servants, whose right Of way
has been secured for them by the
sovereign power of the State for a
public purpose, and they have no
more right than any other public
servant to discriminate against per-
sons or classes. Yet it was by
means Of such discrimination not
only that Republican college stu
dents were carried long distances
to vote, but that crowds were car
ried to Canton to hear Mckinley
speak, and that the party Of plu-
tocracy was otherwise aided. But
a day Of wrath is coming fast, and
against that day things like this
will be treasured up.-The Public.
Republicans complain Of any
appearance of insincerity and yet
it is not unusual to see them prac-
ticing their ingenious tricks. To
be right in politics is honorable,
and the man or party who would
do others needs to be watched,
for they are dishonest wherever
they have chance.

The song service was all thatcould
be wished and was highly appreci-
ated by all present. AS a member
of this organization, and forall the
members, the writer takes this op-
portunity to publicly thank the
good people of this church for their
kindness, and for the privilege Of
listening to his word as expounded
by sour little minister on this oc-
casion, and assure them that the
lessons learned will not be forgot

REsUME Pass EXCHANGE.
Trunk Line Agreement Likely to Be-
come Dead Letter.

The anti-pass issue, so strong a year
ago, is now apparently dead, says the
ST Louis Republic. Unless the execu-
tives who fought so hard for it for so
many years Immediately begin a cam
paign for an extension of the Trunk
Line agreement west of the Mississippi
river employees of the railroads of the
United States will celebrate return
TO the old custom of a universal ex-
change of passes before January l.
Western executives do not want the
agreement extended, and indica tons are
that the anti-pass meeting called in ST
Louis at the Southern next Tuesday
will adjourn without action. Few presi-
dents will be present if the meeting is
held and there is a chance that it may
be called off The executives who voted
for an abolition of passes last year are
saying little in praise of the system
they inaugurated. and their former sup
porters in the central states east of the
Mississippi river are only lukewarm in
their present support.
This return to an interchange of
passes among the employees of the rail-
roads is expected by officials in St.
Louis and those who have visited st.
Louis within the last few weeks. The
travelling agents of the western roads
who have had to pay their fare when
travelling over eastern roads during the
last year are more hopeful than they
have been for years that the anti-Dass
issue viii be dropped. Western officials
say the time is not ripe for a general
abolition of the pass.
Passenger men feared that, with the
anti-pass agreement, would come a re-
duction of the forces of travelling pas
senger men all over the country. How
ever, few agents have been let out, and
more have been employed. The new
colonization rates will have the effect of
increasing the number of agents in all
parts of the country, and this new turn,
with the hope of passes again, has to
a great extent diSpelled the fear among
the travelling passenger men that their
ranks were to be cut down.
