Il do not like your tane, sir" said
Darrell calmly as he extended his hand
tor the pen.
and | do not like your American
jokes" replied Ladislov, rising.
Among gentlemen there are certain
views about lying
Gordon expected to see Ladislov's
body 90 flying over the table behind
him, for he knew Darrell of old as
man exceedingly prompt in such mat
tiers. But Darrell merely put the pen
into his pocket as If he had heard moth
ing offensive, and. leaning back in his
chair, he regarded Ladislov with an
agreeable smile.
You shouldsnot permit yourself to
become excited" he said. II have been
informed by my physician that 1t Is

Getchikoff was staring stupidity, I'M

And he struggled clumsilyFwith his

~ at a loss for words: then, taking
Getchlkoff suddenly by the arm. he led
him away among the tables and into
the cafe beyond. Ten minutes after
ward the waiter whom Darrell had
bribed came up behind him and said
in cautious tone;
Monsieur, did as you told me, but
they found pen and ink inside. The
man with yellow hair signed some
thing for the other"
"A check 2" asked Darrell,
mo. monsieur; 1t was some sort OF
document which the man with the
black beard took from his pocket"
THANK you" said Darrell, reward
ing him once more.
"They say" remarked the waiter,
that monsieur and the man with the
black beard had a quarrel"
"They lie," said Darrell addressing
Gordon rather than the servant. mo

He tapped gently on the table with

seemed adequate. He swore at the
waiter for returning without the pen,
and 1t was while relieving his feelings
In this way that he first saw Darrell,
to whom his back had been turned
wien the two Americans sat down.
Arising unsteadily, lie approached their
table, with extended hand.
Darrell slowly raised his eyes, with a
glance OF mild curiosity quite charac-
teristic of him. He had the face of Il
student and n gently questioning man
ner. He seemed person Of leisurely
and safe conclusions and one who took
a very serious view of all things great
or small. In reality his manner was a
mask and the man behind 1t a born
Jester. He was enjoying at that mo
ment the drunken dignity Of the pom
derOus, yellow bearded Russian, copy
ing 1t mentally for use in some story
that should set a dinner party of good
fellows roaring. But no man could
have guessed it.
He greeted Getchikoff with gravity
and introduced Gordon. with the result
that the swarthy and formidable indl-
yidual hitherto called ''the pirate" was
summoned and presented. 1t appeared
that he was captain and that his
patronymic was Ladisloy. He spoke
French like one long accustomed to its
use and the conversation offered no
linguistic difficulties. 1t had. indeed,
scarcely begun when Getchikotf sud
denly spied stylographic pen in Oar
rells waistcoat pocket and requested
permission to use it, The pen was
very large one, and good three
inches Of it protruded from the pocket,
so that it was quite conspicuous as
Darrell sat there with his coat thrown
open.
"PenT cried Darrell, annoyed by the
incident and determined to save Getchi-
koff from q folly If possible or at least
to avoid assisting him in the commits
sion of it. THAT isn't pen; it's
musical instrument"
And he put it to his lips as one holds
flute. Getchikoff, whose wits were
by no means clear, seemed to credit
this fiction without question. Indeed,
as Darrell knew, he was man who
would believe anything of an Ameri-
can, even TO the eccentricity of car
rying little flute in waistcoat peck
ct.
ut is much used In my country" said
Darrell politely. You might almost
call it the national instrument"
II never saw one before" replied
Getchikoff. with perfect seriousness,
and the Jest was in fair way to pass
successfully when Ladislov, leaning
upon the table and looking keenly at
Darrell. said:
Il would give much TO hear you play
upon It,"
Gordon glanced at LadiGlov In sur
prise, being still convinced that the
man had sought to dissuade Getchikoif
from drawing check. In fact, he had
distinctly heard him speak against that
course.
Would you?" said Darrell, REDEEM
ing at this obvious attempt to put him
in a difficulty. "Then you shall be
gratifed."
And softly, but with clear and very
agreeable tone, he played "Hsil, Co
lumbia" in a manner that was per-
feet Illusion. 1t was trick that Oar.
rell had learned long ago, in college
days, when his repertory OF limitations
had included many instruments. Cor

Iican Institutions.
The conditions of life in this republic
have wonderfully changed during the
last century. Formerly there were two
parties the individual and the govern
ment, Now there are three-the III
dividual, the corporation and the gov
eminent. . No one can be blind TO
the fact that these mighty corpora
tons are holding out most tempting in
ducements to lawmakers to regard In
their lawmaking those interests rather
than the welfare of the nation. Sen
ators and representatives have owed
their places to corporate influence, and
that influence has been eXerted under
an expectation. If not an understand
ing. that as lawmakers the corporate
interest shall he subservcI +" 80 There
may be no written agreement; there
may be. in fact. no agreement at all,
and yet when the lawmaker under
stands that that power exists which
may make for his advancement or 9th
erwise. that il will be eXerted accord
ing to the pliancy with which he yields
to its solicitations. it lifts the corpora
ton into position of constant danger
and menace TO republican institutions.

In keeping with this demand the old
''armory" police station, at Harrison
street and Pacific avenue, is to be RACED,
and in it's place will be built a police
station Of the most modern and ap-
proved design, and of much larger pro-
portions.
With the exception OF the old
'Tombs" station in New York there is
probably no other police station in this
country that has sheltered so many
notorious criminals as the old "armo-
ry." 1t was built just after the great fire
of 1871, and was for years in the very
center of the leves district, though in
creasing demands for business locations
have pushed the levee district farther
south until the old police station is now
just on it's edge. Right beside it now
is the new central station of the Lake
Shore and Rock Island railroads; but
two blocks north Of it is the board OF
trade. the Illinois trust and savings
bank and all the vast financial inter-
ests of La Sale street; two blocks cast
are the mammoth Office buildings OF
Dearborn street. 1t is one of the re-
markable comparisons Of the city that
right at the doors of these great bust
ness interests there should stand this
ancient memorial to Chicago's crime
and poverty. And to it there f1ocks
each day an army of friendless tramps
seeking municipal bounty, and GRIM
mails of all classes to nav tho STERN non
alties of the law.

school term in 1903 there were 10000
children unprovided with school facili
ties. both in the way of teachers and
schoolrooms. When the school term
of this year began those 10000 children
had been provided for, but another
1000 reported at the schoolroom doors
for which there was no provision, and
the city was still year behind time
in the demand created by the children.
Two year. ago the school board
made ruling that no married women
would be employed as teachers. The
labor organizations claimed that the
employment of married women as
teachers was an injustice to those
seeking positions who had no other
means of support, while the married
teachers had their husbands to support
them. 1t has never been possible to
enforce the rule for the reason that
there have never been unmarried teach
ers enough to go around, and to-day
the school board is asking no Ques-
lions along that line at all.
There are enrolled in the public
schools of Chicago at the present time
little more than 186, 900 pupils. Should
the number of pupils continue to grow
fer the next 20 years as it has in
the past at the end of that time there
will be nearly one-half million boys and
girls in the schools, and about 10000
teachers. 1t is doubtful If the latter
can be secured without an increase in
the salary schedule commensurate with
the increase in efficiency demanded OF
the teachers.

maximum has been reached under. tho
present tax returns it will give the
city = bonded Indebtedness Of about
$50, O00, 900. Under the resent sys-
tenn, the city is handicapped BY hay-
ing to expend out of Its annual in
come about 100000 for permanent
improvements. thus taking that
amount away from the police and fire
and other departments OF the city gov
eminent where it should be used.
Another reform is the regulation Of
the Justice and police courts of the
city. No other place IN America. has
been SO cursed by petty justice shops
as has Chicago. The justices of the
peace have been but the paid servants
OF the loan sharks. the gamblers and
the chattel mortgage men. They have
been curse alike to the poor and the
rich; to employe and employer, and
their adjustment will be godsend to
every class worthy OF the protection
Of the courts.
The third reform is in the reorgan-
ization of the city government, and
the elimination of many OF the
wheels within wheels. The number of
taxing bodies will be reduced, and the
methods of tax assessing and tax COL
Letting greatly simplif1ed.
Though the voters have but given
the legislature power to frame char
ter, and the whole subject must again
go before the voters before it can be
completed, those who have the growth
and development of the city at heart
believe the beginning of the end of
the long-drawn-out battle for NUM-
Independence and betterment has
