by our own paths and waterways, so
that they may fall unexpectedly upon
New Orleans, and burn the city, after
pillaeing it. They are also to buy the
slaves with promised freedom, and
then add TO the ruin by an insurrec-
tion."
Pierre, although of not SO fine a
mould as Jean, shared the latter's dis

in strong language. But he now ut
tered terrible oath.
This was his only comment: and it
was followed by silence, until Jean

CHAPTER XXI.

Having emerged from the building,
Lafitte saw, as he was locking tine
door, that many of his men, armed
81 -ckade, the greater number of them
standing around another loghousc at
the farthermost end, where two OF his
subcaptains. Beluche and Dominique
You, had their quarters.
He went 10 the end of the stockade,
and not seeing Pierre amongst the
men gathered there, asked If anyone
knew of the letter's whereabouts.
HE was outside, my captain, when
last saw him. He was sitting on the
bluff, smoking, and swearing that the
men should do no harm to that boat
load of beauties lying off shore" re-
piled Dominique You, his swarthy face
wrinkling with a grin.
The shadows were falling fast, and
the dampcning air was melodious
with the notes Of the mocking birds
that filed the trees about the fort,
nuting voices from the deeper woods,
minglins with the occasional cry of
an owl, or the reiterative note of n
whippoorwill; and now and then the
maniacal scream of q loon came from
the sedges.
On the edge Of the bluff was Pierre,
a gun across his knees, and looking
like sentinel on guard, except that
he was stretched upon the ground
smoking.
Pierre's head turned quickly at the
sound of footsteps behind him, and he
sprang upright as Jean SAID we
must row out there, and send those
fellows back TO their ship. The Off
GERS will remain here for the night. :"
Nothing more was said until small
boat had been pushed off. Jean sat in
the stern, and Pierre, laying his gun
across the seat. picked up the oars and
began TO row with LONG. steady strokes
that sent the light craft speeding out
toward the English boat, showing
black In the gathering dusk.
Jean now tied a handkerchief TO
an extra oar, and raised it, making a
white futter in the shadows.
Offered they generous bribe?'
Pierre inquired softly, turning his
head in order To make sure of the
other boats exact position, while his

Pierrette.

The empty street was gray with dawn.
But everywhere the lamps burned still.
As though dead mans eyes stared on
Through some undying will.
The city seemed no more a thing
Than some great door she might not
move.
That, blank and all unans wering.
Barred her from rest and love.
The morning wind, like some pale ghost
Fretted the tavern's creaking sign,
AS though 1t whimpered to the host
For sorrows anodyne
The mist chung damply to her dress.
Dragging the lstless. tired feet.
That still on that quest purpoSeless,
Toiled up and down the street.
And grayed the hairs pathetic gold
Where one day Loves own hand was
laid.
And weary she, and very cold.
And bitterly afraid.

Get Out Of Prison by Marrying.

In some parts of Siam girls who
reach a certain age without marrying
are placed in a privileged class under
the special care of the king, who binds
himself to find husband for them all.
His method is simplicity itself. A
prisoner in any of the Siamese jails
may gain his pardon and release by
marrying one of the ineligible class
Whether he is already married or not
Is Of no great consequence. for in Siam
. man is not restricted to one wife:
INIT still many prisnRars prefer jail.

This is the last call for those who
would plant tulips, and have first
class show of flowers in the early
spring. In order to get the best effect
We would earnestly advise that not 100
many kinds be planted, but rather that
a quantity Of each color be massed to-
cether or laid out in broad ribbons or
strips, which will give much more
brilliant effect than when the cotors
are mixed together.

To Apply Lotions.

One very good way to apply lotion
to the face, when time is not taken
into account, is to pour as much as is
needed into clean saucer and use
sterilized absorbent cotton or gauze,
which can be purchased for a trifiing
sum of the chemist. Make some little
balls or pads Of the cotton and keep
them in clean, wfde-mouthed jar,
with screw top. and use as needed.
Dip them into the lotion and gently
wash 1t over the face. using fresh ones
from tins to time Aurins tho nrocaes.

Examination Of the records OF Fair
fax county, Virginia. show that George
Washington owned $4,000 acres OF
land when 81 years old, and at the fall
slaughtering in 1850 the Washington
family killed $50 hogs for their own
use. The examination also brought
out the fact that in 1857 the father OF
his country sowed $50 acres in grass,
400 acres In oats, 700 acres in wheat.
and 100 acres in other grains. He
owned 140 horses, 112 cows, 500 sheep.

the training obtained in the agricul-

St. Louis>Lead sold at the highest
price in twenty-five years in Missouri.
when sales were made Thursday at
$3.50 per 100 pounds.
The advance I'm lead is attributed to
several causes. chief of which is the
restriction in production in Missouri
Another cause is said to be the fact
that the leading governments OF the
