CHAPTER Xxx.

WNHE dogs tied in the yard at the
Maryland farm jumped and

mans footsteps approaching as
Margaret opening the door again,
stepped out into the mOOnlit night.
Now her appearance was entirely
changed. for thrown about her was a
long cloak of quilted white silk reach
ing to the ground and Il hood OF the
same material covered her soft hair
and cast Il shadow over the radiant
face that was aglow with happiness at
the sight of the newcomer.
Thou laggardw she exclaimed, 60
inc to meet La Fabienne, with hands
outstretched. "Didst take thee all OF
several hours to don thy best attire,
foolish Godfrey"
He regarded her with looks OF au-
miration and content.
cave" he replied, full well canst
thou call me that name in earnest,
bright eyes. where aught doth concern
thee,'
AT his words, as if from the return or
some unpleasant remembrance, the
smile on Margarets face faded, and,
pressing the hand more firmly that still
held hers. she led La Fabienne to the
middle of the roadway, where there
was no shade of trees and where the
bright moon, now higher in the sky,
lowered over them, casting its radiance
down, with effulgent sympathy, illumi-
Mating them. Throwing back her hood,
she raised her head with Il sudden,
swift motion, and there was an express
sion of intense seriousness on her race.
Godfrey" she asked entreatingly,
sis my look baleful? Have L wicked
ness in my glance? Are mine eyes
evil?"
With suppressed exclamation OF
anger La Fabienne encircled her with
his arm.
.'Thy glance wickedw he exclaimed
passionately. Thine eyes evil! Nay,
pure soul, rather are they like two
stars of heaven, pure and holy, leading
men to better thoughts and deeds.
More are they like the sun, Frightening
and warming all that they do rest up
on. Damme, but thy question doth cause
nv choler to rise! Hath any man
dared to afront thee? Who spoke of
Thy looks?"

He threw his arms about her protect

steps they both paused.

saidst erstwhile thou trusted me-

And now farewell again. have bust

Margaret's eyes were filled with
tears at her lovers earnestness, and as
he attempted to leave her she chung to
him, sobbing bitterly.

she cried Thou knowest something of

promise, sweet, that on the morrow
we'd begone before the village is

As her head still dropped on his
shoulder and she did not reply, he re-
peated:
"Didst thou not hear me, Margaret"
She raised her head, and, although
there was an expression Of strength
ard resolution in her eyes, her lips
| trembled.
AYE, l heard thee, and at sunrise

.In few short hours we will ride

Farewell again, nd once again fare

now, so much have to do, perforce l

Putting her inside the door and clos
ing it, he walked quickly down the
path toward the forest, and when he
reached it he had to grope his way to
keep from stumbling, for the moon
went under cloud, and dark shad-
| ow fell atlWart the mountain.

should be unified, or even any hard
and fast treaty obligations incurred.
1t is only necessary that they should
agree to be friends and to stand by
each other in all that will further
these great objects. They alone of
all the nations can do this and that
they ought TO do it few will deny. To
be sure, both must rise above selfish
interest in some degree. Both must
forget certain bitternesses born of the
past and certain jealousies growing
out of the greatness of both; but since
their ideals are SO nearly the same
and since the. opportunity and need
are both SO great it. is not unreaSon
able to ask them to do this thing. 1t
is but to recognize the responsibility
which the strong and enlightened ma
ton has for the weaker and less en-
lightened. not TO conquer but to help,
not to exploit but to teach and lead.
What Great Britain is doing for the
many peoples under her care and
what this nation is doing for the few
outside our borders that we have in
hand, we might unitedly do for a
great portion of the globe and its in
habitants. Their combination must
be strong enough to check certain
highwaymen in international relations
and to instill wholesome regard for
human rights and just a little pity
for human sorrows. To such union
of forces the great God seems plainly
calling the peoples of Great Britain
and the United States. Will they not
heed the call and so promote ethnic
ethics as nothing else can do?
The San Francisco call., 1905-02-26

nous task, to develop 1t is greater
one. At the same time the home pop
ulation must be protected and cared
for, task enough in such times as these.
In this country the problem of en-
pire is chiefly within our own borders.
We have to receive and asslmllate an
enormous alien population crowdlng to
our shores. We have to teach them to
be free, and no greater task has ever
been given a nation since time began.
For the problem of morality is the
problem of liberty! Only the free will
be good. BY liberty is not meant It's
privileges, but its duties and fitness Tor
them, very different thing. The least
Government is the best Government
only when the people are intelligent
and trustworthy enough to govern
themselves without much supervision.
Great must be the intelligence and
sturdy the conscience of such people.
There is one force equal to making
people thus fit for freedom, by max
ing them thus moral 1t is religion.
Not the religion that stands in forms,
either of words or procedure, but in
character and life. 1t is not the relig-
ion found in state church, that Mid
die Age ghost strayed into these days.
No state does or can or ought TO teach
it or repress it, but only give 1T fair
chance. No special form of it has an
instant's right of way in any country
or among any people. 1t is as free III
it's nature and as powerful in its work.
ing as the sunlight, and as indispensa-
BILE as the atmosphere. Such religion
alone can give the ideals, inspire to the
heroism and sacrifice necessary to in
violable liberty. In no lands does 1t
have such recognition as in those
where the Anglo Saxon has his home.
Were 1t more regarded In these lands
their promise would be greater. Only
by being religious and therefore moral
can these nations lead the grand march
of humanity to a blessed future of
peace, prosperity and happiness. The
heroes of both nations were men who
feared God and loved their fellows.
That they did neither as we'll as they
should does not change the fact that
they did both and therefore built these
nations foursquare and strong. Let
their spirit rule now and still greater
things will follow.
These considerations lead easily to
another, by which the ethics of the
nations might be improved and guard
ed greatly. 1t is that the Anglo-Sax-
on world should undertake this task
together. Their statesmen can do no
worthier service than to find a way
by which their strength may be COM
bined to secure the peace of the world
and the betterment of mankind. 1t is
not necessary that their governments

ON ELECTION
BOARD DEMURRER CLOSED
III Court Decides Adversely Matter
Will Be Taken Before Supreme
Court on a Writ.

Arguments on the demurrer TO the
accusation of the Grand jury against
the Election Commissioners. charging
them with malfeasance in office, were
concluded before Judge Lawlor yester-
day and the Judge reserved his decl-
sion till next Saturday.
Attorney Gator for the Commission
ers intimated that If the court held
against them an application would be
made either for writ of mandate or
writ of prohibition so as to take the
matter before the Supreme Court TO
have it decided whether there was any
law on the statute book covering such
a case as the one under review. The
object would be to have the preliml-
nary objections definitely determined
before going to the expense and
trouble of trial.
AS the Mayor has rendered his de-
cision exonerating the Commissioners
on the same charges, the motion or
the defendants to arrest the proceed
u,gs pending such decision was with
drawn at the request of the attorneys
for the defendant.

Ernest Moore Chadwick, alias Sir"
Harry Westwocd Cooper, appeared for
sentence before Judge Cook yesterday
on charge of perjury, the Judge hav-
ing announced on Friday that he
would not permit the cases against
the defendant to be on his calendar
any longer. The defendants attorney
asked for more time, as he had been
busy with other cases. but the Judge
refused.
When the defendant was asked if he
had anything to say why the sentence
Of the court should not be pronounced
upon him. Frank j. Murphy, his at
torney said he had motion to make
for a new trial on various grounds,
chiefly that new evidence favorable to
the defendant had been discovered. At
his request the argument on the mo-

noon.

forged telegram, on which ne was con-
