CHAPTER XIV

CHAPTER XIV.
Ethel did not entirely recover from
the effects Of her fright, until after the
nights sleep had served to calm her
nerves, and all the evening that followed
she was excited and scarcely able to con-
troll herself
When she bade the family good night
and locked herself into her room, in or
der to proceed to her nightly task, 1t was
with a dazed feeling, and an aching
head. Nerving herself for her duty, how
ever, as well as she could, she proceed
ed to light her candle, and taking the In
dispensable knife, she passed through the
wardrobe and passageway, into the cor
ridor beyond.
Possessing herself of the basket of
food, she remembered to fasten the door
with the iron hook, a precaution the bar
onet had charged her always to observe,
that by no possibility could she be sur
prised while accomplishing her task, then
passing onward, she opened the panel as
usual and placed the plate of food upon
the shelves.
As she did so she heard distinctly
movement on the other side, which, being
rather unusual, for silence alone ordi-
narily reigned, startled her already ex-
cited nerves so much that she gave the
shelves the required shove, and just as
they whirled away, she saw, to her hOr-
ror, when too late to stop them, that she
had dropped the knife from her hand,
and 1t had gone around with the food.
Breathlessly she waited for the retlrn
movement hoping that the creature with
III would not observe 1t, and that it would
come back with the plate.
As she waited, singular loud, shrill
noise or cry came from within. The next
moment the shelves had revolved, and
the plate alone appeared,
Appalled, with her own carelessness,
and fancylng she knew not what as the
result, the terrified, half frantic girl,
could only draw to the panels, with all
the expedition possible, and then hastily
return the basket, fasten the door and
seek the safety of her own apartment.
What was now her dutyf Should she
Immediately seek the baronet who was
probably asleep by this time, and telling
him the mishap, ask what was to be
donef
mol she could not think this course a
wise one. The baronet was an exceed
ingly passionate man. Such a tale, at
this hour, would throw him into a whirl
Of nervous anger that might cause dam
age to the broken hip, the bones Of
which, all hoped, had by this time COM
menced to unite.

 per-
 In most cases a person can get a 1 larger sum refunded to them from the railroad for their ticket than can be | secured by selling 1t to ticket scalper. The Santa Fe railroad averages high CT than $5,000 a month or $60,000 per year in refunds to persons for the un- l used portions of railway tickets pur- chased from the Santa, Fe. Cheap rate tickets which are sold for one and third fares for the round trip for instance will bring more to the holder by having 1t redeemed by the railroad than by selling to a ticket bro- ker
 In the Santa Fe general offices in To- peka one clerk Is kept busy all the time investigating the claims of those who want refunds for unused portions of tickets Every month from 300 to 800 tickets are sent in for refund. This clerk takes the matter up with the auditors office of the company and learns the amount of money the pur- chaser paid for 1t from the railroads If the ticket was used but a portion of the trip one way or if 1t was used all the distance of the one way trip and the return rortion was not used, this clerk learns the amount of the regular fare would be for the distance travelled and deducts that amount from the amount paid for the ticket and the bal ances is refunded to the patron.
 The drafts on the treasurer of the company are constantly being sent out, A bunch is mailed every day. Every large railroad maintains a similar de- partment and all tickets which will nct be honored by conductors for the req son that the time limit has expired will be redeemed by the company in cash equivalent to the amount paid by the patron for the ticket.

TO THE JURY.
Mcdonald Case VIII be Submitted This
 Morning.

Morning. The case of Gordon Macdonald, for number of years. a prominent mem Der Of the Montgomery bar, will be submitted to a jury in the criminal division of the City Court of Mont gomery this morning.
 All the evidence In the case was heard yesterday and last night argu- ment by counsel on both sides was heard
 Judge W. H. Thomas. presiding over the court did not charge the jury last night as was expected. but allowed the jurors to go home for the night. His charge in the case will be delivered this morning.
 The trial of MT. Macdonald proceeded slowly throughout yesterday. When court convened at 10 o'clock, the plead ings were again taken up and 1t was near noon before any evidence was taken.
 Only three witnesses were placed on the stand. F. P. Heifner of Atlanta. II. N. Hughes. deputy clerk of the City Court of Montgomery and H. Fl. Mat thews, clerk of the City Court.
 The witness from Atlanta testified that he had employed Mir. Macdonald to represent him in a litigation for breach of contract. The plaintiff in this case received a judgment against him. This sum and the amount of the cost was sent Mir. Macdonald from Atlanta to pay the clerk of the court. The case was afterwards appealed to the Supreme Court by the plaintiff and the decision of the lower court was reversed Mir. Macdonald did not represent him in the Supreme Court nor did he pay the clerk of the City Court of Montgomery, the amount forwarded for judgment and costs
 This testimony was prolonged by continued technical objections by coun- sel for the defense. MT Macdonald was represented by at least a dozen lawyers, with whom he was formerly associated before the Montgomery bar and the legal battle was fought inch by inch.

 The International Society of Arbor- culture. of which MT. Brown Is Secre- tary, has an exhibit of catalpas at the St, Louis Worlds Fair. which has at tracted the worlds attention. and for which the grand prize and gold medal have been awarded. This Is a special ly valuable tree for the transportation companies. as it's great durability and rapid maturity commend 1t for cross ties, several of which are exhibited that have been in service for third of a century
 The usefulness of the catalpa for pas senger cars and office furniture Is de- monstrated by the exhibit. Wood pulp and book paper are also exhibited, all made from this valuable tree.
 MT. Brown thinks that the sandy lands of Florida and the Gulf States are well adapted for growing the ca talpa, and strongly urges the lumber men and owners of such lands to plant these trees in vast numbers to replace the pine, which is being rapidly ex- hauStcd.
 Any land which has produced pine is capable of producing catalpa." said he, although the same land may not be suited for agriculture or for graz ing. A pertinent question is. What other crops can be grown on much of these lands, and of what value will they be after the turpentine industry has killed the pine trees?
 This is d live question: What is to be done with Southern lands which are now agricultural? and it Is well for the railways. the States, the. lumbermen and land owners to give 1t due consid-

NISSEN'S BODY FOUND
HIS "FOOL KILLER" NEARBY,
 SHOWED DAMAGE.
Hands and Face of the Inventor Frozen and Features Reflected the Terrible Suffering that He
 Underwent.

Stevensville, Mich. Dec. 1.-Peter Nissen!N who attempted to cross Lake Michigan in a balloon boat called Fool Killer No. g." was found dead on the beach two and a half miles west of here today. Nissen Is supposed to have washed ashore during the night. His ''fool killer was about twenty rods down the beach from the body and was considerably damaged.
 A life preserver and overcoat were fastened to the basket shaped car in the boat. The body was brought to Stevensville, where it lies in the town hall The hands and face were frozen and the features reflected terrible suf- fering. The clothing on the body was somewhat torn.
 It is almost certain that Nissen prac- tically reached shore alive yesterday about { o'clock after he had been out of Chicago two hours. The fool kill err was then about twenty rods of shore from Livingston. six miles south of Stevensville. A heavy gale was blowing and 1t Is thought he was un- able to land and was probably tossed about up shore all night. It Is be- lieved that Nissen was either uncon- scious or so thoroughly chilled that he was unable to save himself when the fool killer" finally collapsed, and he was drowned.

CHAMP CLARK'S SPEECH.
His Address as Permanent Chairman Of
the Convention.

st. Louis, July 11.-Champ Clarks
speech as permanent chairman of the
convention was as follows:
In his haste, King David said that
all men are liars. He had been in
Chicago while Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge was reading in the Republican
platform he would no doubt have pro-
nounced the same opinion more leis-
urely, for surely there never was more
mendacity packed into the same
space in any document purporting to
be a grave state paper. Shakespeare
says:
Thrice is he armed that his quarrel
just,
And he but naked, though locked up
in steel,
Whose conscience with injustice is
corrupted"
In the impending conflict our quar-
rel is just and we are in the right be-
yond all cavil. To state it in gen
government shall be restored to the
democratic-republican basis on which
the fathers of the republic intended
it to rest and shall be made once more
a government of the people, by the
people and for the people, instead of
government of the classes, by the
classes and for the classes.
To state it with more particularly,
we insist that exorbitant taxation
shall be reduced to just and reason
able rates; that extravaganza in ap-
preparations shall cease; that econ
omy shall prevail in all the transac-
tons of the government; that all the
departments shall be thoroughly in
vestigated from top to bottom by con-
gressional committees; that all evil
doors of whatever degree shall be
driven from the public service and
properly punished; that the trusts
shall be proceeded against by indict-
ment as are common and smaller
criminals; that the constitution &C
company the American flag into our
new possessions.

ruddy face breaking into a CHEEKY
smile in which satisfaction was undis-
guised. He asked for details of the
final vote, and displayed the liveliest
interest in every fact and figure at
the same time, refraining from the
slightest comment.

whatever on the subject until l am
