heart with enmity against his only child!
For the sake of one dear memory, have
borne all this. But there is limit to
all human endurance, and that limit is

one being still in whom you take some
interest-that you have one Vulnerable

AS he spoke he drew close to her,
foaming with passion, and wildly gesticu-
lating, as though he would strike her.
But not one step did she move. but
look ed him full and fearlessly in the face,
though her own grew shade paler. The
solemn servant, attracted by the noise,
stood terror-stricken in the doorway. AS
he spoke the last words, he pushed her
aside, and rushed out of the house, with
Madame Berne's voice ringing in his
ears, Beware what you do, lest the ven
geance fall upon your own head!
Left alone, her nerve gave way, and
she sank back trembling, and almost
fainting, upon the sofa.
An hour afterwards, she was on her
way to Gray's Inn. When she arrived,
the office was closed. Early on Monday
morning she sought it again. But the
time lost was fatal.

LIFE IN ALEUTIAN ISLANDS.

Where Bears and Eagles Are Large
and Grass Five Feet in Height.
The simple announcement that Mrs
Annie Vessey, of Kadiak, Alaska, had
returned to her home after a visit To
Seattle, as reported In the society col
umns OF the newspapers, meant little
to the average reader, but the visit it
self meant much to Mrs. Wesley, for II
was the first time she had been out
side Alaska. Never before had she rid
den on street car, seen locomotive
been within a theater or witnessed the
complex life of city. All was new
and strange to her. Her twenty years
were spent entirely on Kadiak Island
and the islands of the Aleutian group

ing dynasty of Russia, went to Alaska

DEED OF A BASTARD.
Unsuccessful Attempt Made to Blow
Up Statue Of Frederick the Great
at Washington.

Washington, Jan. 11.-An unsuccess-
full attempt was made Tuesday by one
or more civilians to blow up the statue
OF Frederick the Great, recently present.
ed to this government by the emperor
OF Germany, and now standing in the
war college grounds. A charge of ex-
plosiyes with lighted fuse was attached
to the fence surrounding the statue, but
was removed by an employe before it
exploded. No damage resulted to the
statue or to property or persons.
The. police authorities believe that the
attempt was made by crank, who hung
long fuse bomb on the fence surround
ing the statue; that a negro who arrived
on the scene Immediately afterward
discovered the bomb, removed it from
the fence and threw it away, whereupon
1t exploded. The driver Of the carriage
who conveyed the man to the statue
says that he received his passenger at
the Pennsylvania railroad station;
that he left the carriage apparently to
take a photograph Of the statue; that
he left the carriage en- route back to
the depot and made his way toward
the river front. The police are search
ing for the man,

CHAPTER XVI.

We got our bearings, . pair Of boots
for D'ri. and a hearty meal in the cabin
Of settler. The good man was unfa-
miliar with the upper shore, and we
got no help in our mystery. Starting
west, in the woods, on our way to the
harbor, we stopped here and there to
listen, but heard only wood-thrush and
partridge-the fife and drum Of nature.
That other music had gone out Of
hearing. We had no compass, but D'ri
knew the forest as crow knows the
air. He knew the language Of the
trees and the brooks. The feel Of the
bark and what he called "the lean Of
the timber" told him which way was
south. River and stream had q way
Of telling him whence they had come
and where they were going, but he had
no understanding of map. / remem-
Der, after we had come to the harbor
at dusk and told our story, the gem
eral asked him to indicate our landing
place and our journey home on a big
map at headquarters. D'ri studied the
map a brief while. There was a look
OF embarrassment on his sober face.
Seems SO we come ashore bout
here" said he, dropping the middle
finger Of his right hand in the vicin-
ity of Quebec. Then we travelled
aw-a-a-ay hellwards over n this ERE
direction" With that Illuminating re-
mark he had slid his finger over some
200 leagues Of country from Quebec to
Michigan.
They met us with honest Joy and no
little surprise that evening as we came
into camp. Ten of our comrades had
returned, but as for ourselves, they
thought US in for a long stay. We

At the close of the season he was sold

ORGANIZED CARPENTERS
Up in Arms Over Alleged Unjust Dis
elimination.

The organized carpenters in Washington
are I'D in arms at what they term unjust
discrimination against their craft on GER
tain building operations now in progress in
the District, especially those under govern
ment control. An officer of the Carpenters
Union stated today that methods unfair to
organized labor are In vogue at the mira
| tfon plant where he said 1t is sought to at
tract to this city what are known as
"hatchet-and-saw carpenters, VINO VIII
work for less wages than the union scale.
The official of the union added that there
was no necessity for the management OF
| the filtration plant to advertise for wood
workers as there are plenty of union men
here whose services can De secured at union
rates. The men who answer the advertise
ment it is stated are only given employ
| ment If they will agree to work for 20 cents
an hour.
| ton of their craftsmen call on President
Roosevelt and enter a vigorous protest
against alleged unfair Determinations
| which they state are being made against
| their unions at the War College.the navy
yard and other government institutions
where carpentering work is in progress.
The only development in the controversy
between the bricklayers and the builders
and contractors is said to be steps that are
being taken to bring about conference
between the interested factions to consider
| certain proposed changes in the agreement
between the Bricklayers Uuion and the AS
ISOLATION Of Master Bricklayers At the
| special meeting of the Bricklayers' Union
| last night, it Is said, only the revision Of
the constitution was considered.
Complaint was also made to the Carpen-
ters' Union today that several carpenters
| were at work at their trade in the Home
Club building on street between 10th and
18th streets northwest, at wages below the
union scale. An official of the union said
he investigated the matter and found the
complaint was we'll founded. He ordered
| the men to cease work unless they received
| full union pay. They declined to do so,
well as members Of the union, and claimed
| they had the right to assist their brother
| Filks by working on their building at less
rates than those prescribed.
The business agent of the carpenters, Mr.
Joseph Reilly, announces his intention of
bringing the matter to the attention of the
| Carpenters Union at its next meeting.
