Colonel Clark looked on In amaze

sudden incident had bewildered him,
| but his virile nature was instantly and
wholly charmed. Something like n
breath OF violets shook the tenderest
chords of his heart.
Alice stood firmly, a statue of tri-
umph, her right arm outstretched,
holding the flag high above Hamilton's
head, and close by her side the little
hunchback Jean was posed I'm his most
characteristic attitude, gazing at the
banner which he himself had stolen
and kept hidden for Alice's sake and
because he loved 1t.

face showed that he was ready to col

He was dancing with n rickety live
illness, his goatish legs and shriveled
body giving him the look of an enact
ated satyr.
Clark had been told by some of his
creole officers the story OF how Alice
raised the flag when Helm took the
fort and how she snatched II from
Hamilton's hand, as it were, and would
not give it up when he demanded il.
The whole situation pretty soon began
to explain itself as he saw what Alice
was doing. Then he heard her say TO
Hamilton while she slowly swayed the
ripping flag back and forth:
IL said as you will remember, NJ. L.
Gouverneur, that when you next should
see this flag l should wave it over your
head. Well, look. am waving il.

was supreme. He dared not say any
thing. however, for Clark was now all
sternness and formality. II would be
dangerous 10 take any liberties. but he
could smile and roll his quid of tobacco
from cheek to cheek.
Hamilton and Fnrnsworth, the latter
slightly wounded I'm the left arm, which
was bandaged, stood together some
what apart from their fellow officers
while preliminary steps for celebrating
their defeat and capture were In prog
ress. They looked forlorn enough To
have excited deep sympathy under fair
or conditions.
Outside the fort the creoles were be
ginning a noise OF jubilatiOn. The ru-
NOR Of what was going TO be done had
passed from mouth To mouth until ev-
cry soul I'm the town knew and thrilled
with expectancy. Men, women and
children came swarming TO see the
slight and to hear at close range the
crash Of the cannon. They shouted, in
scattering way AT first; then the tn
mutt grew swiftly TO solid rolling
tide that seemed beyond all comparl-
con with the population CT Nincennes.
Hamilton heard it and trembled in
wardly. afraid lest the mob should
prove too strong for the guard.
One leOnine voice roared distinctly,
high above the noise II was n sound

He attracted but little attention,
however. The people and the soldiery
were all too excited by the special in

with making a racket of their own for

thing was ready for the important GER

stockade two companies OF patriots I'M

up as guards, while the British garri-

This bit OF formality ended, Governor
Hamilton. attended by some OF his Of
ficers, went back into the fort and the
gate was closed.
Clark now gave orders that prepara-

fate of James s. Gillespie, Myron Bar
bour, Mrs. Carrie Barbour, his wife,
and Mrs. Eellc Seward, charged with
the murder of Elizabeth Gillespie, will
soon hang on the deliberations of the
jury. The direct examination of James
Gillespie has been concluded, and, con
trary to expectation. the eXami-
nation was not protracted. Mrs. Belle
Seward was the last witness called by
the defense, and, like the other de
PENDANTS, she denied all connection

in. The state, however, gave notice
that if the court would allow it the
state would call Myron Barbour and
would ask him the cause of his uil,
