CHAPTER XVI,

The white walled, high ceiled ante
room was barely furnished with padu-
asoy chairs and small slim legged
table. A high desk used betimes by
the colony's chief justice of the su-
preme court was at one end, with doors
on either side. The other end OF the
room opened In narrow arches between
pliers into the wide paved hall OF the
statehouse. Across these pillars was
stretched q heavy cloth curtain,
through whose folds sounds from the
corridor reached dull and fmuffed.
Beyond these curtains on the oppo
site side Of the hall was a great double
door, and through the heavy oak came
voices in debate and an occasional high
note like the metallic rap OF gavel
But in the anteroom this became only
a distant hum like that of settling bees.
Armand, clad as for court levee,
stood one side erect and smiling before
a trio OF sober coated figures In duifle
gray. His long, brown, ripping hair,
the rare lace at his throat. the Jade hilt
OF his dress sword. made him as dis
tinct as some brilliant hued insect
among gray moths. Beside him, uni
formed, his mustachios aggressive as
ever, short, wiry and alert, stood PHI
arne.
The sober coated gentlemen, the dele
gates appointed to meet the secret mes
senger to the congress. had made their
bows to the great man, all but Dickin-
son, their leader openly radiant with
the presumed bearing Of his mission.
M. Pliarne's proposals for ammunition
purchases had recently been considered
In committee, and the announcement of
the ENJOYS arrival, coming from him,
known agent OF France, had carried
a weight added to by the appearance
OF the man before them. He had ar
rived little late, a deliberateness that
accorded well with the sobriety OF his
GRAND.
Now they hut waited a pause In the
debate to throw wide the doors that
opened to the floor.
On the other side OF those doors RACES
what Is to be the last agitated hour Of
the fight. The document that is to be
the birth certificate Of nation lies up
on the table. Since early morning the
discussion has been bitter
The insect hum ceased suddenly.
There was forward movement of the
group In the anteroom toward the cur
talns.
Stop" echoed an intense voice be-
hind them. stop" Joseph Galloway
stepped into the room from one of the
side entrances and closed the door.
Praise the Most High" he ejaculat-
ed, that | am come In time! Gentle
men, as you would save the congress
from most shameful scandal, let not
that man pass from this room"
There was murmur of angry amaze
ment from the group. Armand's hand
dropped to his side. His face had whit.
ened, and Pilarne's mustachios worked
alarmingly.
Sir" interposed Dickinson sternly,
I'VE receive here legate OF France!"

While some classes of occupation
nave undergone little change in many
years, and would be familiar to one
who lived, fifty or hundred years ago,
other occupations have so changed as
to be scarcely recognizable Thus an
old printer finds it difficult to realize
that the typesetting machine can do
his work much more rapidly than he
could: in the old days, and the type
writer, with it's perfectly formed and
easily read letters, has largely dis
placed the pen. But if some occupa-
tions have SO changed as to be hardly
recognizable, others would be unfa-
miliar to an old-timer simply because
they did not exist. One of these newer
occupations is that of the mechanical
draughtsman, arising from the neces-
sity for laying out bridges and mod
ern Office structures. This profession
developed rapidly in recent years, un-
til now many persons are employed
exclusively in laying out and designing
structural plans. Probably the in
strument most in use by this profess
