CHAPTER VII.
AT THE ARMS

ftrE- 6ASe ~
It was well into the night when the
first dim lights of Paris came into
view, n perhaps some two good hours
afterwards before we drew up in front
of the austrian Arms"
1t was not a new or progressing
place, yet much better than those I
had seenSalong the road from Dieppe.
The host well deserved Serigny's
appellation of a churl, for he looked
suspiciously at me, and when I asked
for de Greville replied he knew moth
Ing of him. I could get no satisfac-
ton from him, so I determined to AXE
up my abode and wait. In I went and
needed not the surly host who regard
ed me askance.
The small public room was vacant,
and I possessed myself of 1t with the
settled air Of a man who has come to
stay. Verify the fire felt most grateful,
and 1t did me much comfort to stretch
as I listed, after the tedious conflne-
ment Of the coach. Mine host busted
himself about mending the fire. but
whenever I raised my eyes I caught
his gaze fixed doubtingly upon me. Ev-
Identity the mar knew more than he
told, and 1 planned to test his loyalty.
Here, my good man." I called to
him, "dost know anything of inis
Jerome de Greville? Where is he?"
BY U lady, noble sir, 1 know him
not Paris is a great city, and many
noble gentlemen come and go at their
WILL"
But M. de Greville lodges with YOU. I
am told. My business is urgent"
II do not recall such a name? Jerome

syes to the ceiling in the attitude of
deep contemplation. I smiled inwardly.
II 1t please you, sir, to write your
name in my guest book. should Mon

him. You may tell me where you can
be found"
He fetched out a worn and greasy
book from a chest in the rear, and
handed me a pen, watching, as T
thought, with some interest, what name
I would write, though / much ques-
toned II he could read it. l pushed
the book aside.
"Oh, it matters not, my name; 1t is
an obscure one. and NJ. de Greville
would not recall 1t. See here my good
fellow. here Is a gold piece to aid thy
memory. At what hour will M. de
Greville return?"
He took the coin, and turning it over
and over in his palm, said. as if to 1T:
IT Monsieur will write a note and
leave it, I will send to Other inns and
see If such q man be in Paris. Mon
sieur Is of Gascony7' he yentured.
The Gascons were at this time re-
garded with distrust, 1t was such an
easy matter for them to carry news
into Spain, being on the border.
! soon found there was nothing to be
convinced of his steadfastness was
willing he should keep the coin as ear
nest none for furture services. De
Greville not coming in, I grew FESTIVE,
and concluded l would stroll about the
city. Claude, for so the landlord

hlMBAIb SOUTH DAKOTA, FRIDAY, MARCH is,
THE SHAME Of ONO.

Gov. Vardaman, of Mississippi, is
inclined to hand out hot utterances
regarding the negro which are little
too much for northern digestion. /
When he declared, a month or two
ago, that the negro of the south is
united for the kind Of education be-
ing forced upon him howl of horror
echoed all through the north.
in our virtuous ignorance of the
subject. he was paragraphed and car
tooned and pulpitized as degener-
ate hater of negroes, OF justice and Of
decency.
But it is to be observed and re-
membered that when, a little while
ago, a Mississippi negro was threat
ened with lynching, Gov. Vardaman
rushed company of militia hum
dred miles to the scence and saved
him from the fury of the mob.
Clearly, with Gov. Vardaman per-
sonal opinion is one thing and the law
sanother thing.
How differently we do in the
superior north-at Springfield, Ohio,
for instance.
For half a night sheriff and his
deputies resist mob that is battering
down the Jail doors to get at negro,
and militia company, whose armory
is only few steps away, never makes
its appearance at all.
And this is militia company with
record, too. 1t is the same that
hurried by special tram to Urbana
during the famous "Chick" Mitchell
riot, marched to the besieged Jail and
then, sin order that the mob might
not be int1amed to violence by the
presence of militia" marched back to
its train and went home again, leav-
ing the terrorized town in the undis-
puted power of the mob that within
an hour dragged its victim from the
Jail and hanged him.
With tlis record back OF it there is
little wonder that the Springfield
militia failed to respond to the
sheriff's call while Jail was being
battered in, a negro lynched and the
torch applied to negro dwellings.
The fault is not in the militia alone,
but in a depraved public sentiment
that tolerates such outrages upon the
law and decency
The negotiating governor Of Miss
issippi gets his troops on hand on
time. The state of Ohio gets ten
companies together after the deyiltry
is accomplished.
During 364 days of the year we OF
the north virtuouslY s'slop over'' with
argumentative defense Of the negro,
and then on the 365th we batter down
a jail and hang him, while the law is
paralYzed and the militia hides in Its
armory.
Poorly fixed are we of the north to
throw stones at the white men of the
south!
What Ohio needs is one company Of
Mississippi militia, under command of
an officer with the courage to order
them to shoot to kill.

One Of the results of the lynch

last week was the burning of a
block of buildings which consti-
tuted negro quarters. The
houses were deliberately set afre
by the mob. There was insurance
on these buildings aggregatir g
about $4,000, which the insurance
companies say they will not pay,
and the city attorney declares that
the municipality is not reaponsi-

is an interesting question, if it
has not been heretofore settled.

no tolerance of progress in any

A bill has passed the United

that some people have not as much
regard for their faces as the gov
ernment has for its tlag-those
that ornament Pe-ru-na advertise
