a tall, mailed figure pass into the

child in an agony of fear. 1t described

The operation Mrs Arthur Paget I'M

Of the injured bones by means of the

the fractured bones could be reached.
These were screwed together with

two tragical events have made the
Sultan immensely suspicious. Always
keeping watch against conspirators, he
regards as his most faithful and useful
servitors the men who spend their
time in discovering his enemies, IN
finding out their plans, and in prevent

best rewarded will be be who has
given his Majesty the most exhaustive
information.

COURT NOTES.
The Strange Mystery of the Haunt
ed Room" Revealed TO Lord CLAIMS.

Lord CLAIMS, son of the Earl and
Countess Of Strathmore, came OF age
september 80, and the secret of the
Haunted Room" was communicated
TO him by his father. This has been
an inyariable practice on such occa-
sions from time immemorial. What
secret the Haunted Room" contains is
supposed to be passed ON 20 every
heir as he attains his majority. Thus
lis precise nature is In the possession
of never more than two persons at the
same time. Conjecture and traditions
say, however, that in the long ago,
when the Lindsays and Ogilvies were
at feud a number of the latter clan
were imprisoned and died in that par
ticular chamber. That the room has
some uncanny peculiaritics appears to
he beyond doubt, for the late Lord
Strathmore had it walled up after Wis
ting the apartment one night TO de-
termine the origin of certain weird
noises which, 1t Is said had for q long
time disturbed and puzzled him. The
Earl opened the door with key"
wrote a correspondent to a DR. Lee,
''and dropped back in dead swoon
into the arms of his companions; nor
could he ever be induced to open his
lips on the subject afterward' The
experiences of a lady visitor at the cas-
tie are quoted in the book, Haunted

For time his return to Barrataria
was the occasion of festivities and
brilliant ceremonials. Now they
wanted young man. There was
Trastamara, Adelaides distant cousin.
He was of royal blood and
full of fire. Why not make him king?
And Il found by questioning that

Encouragement TO Young Writer

To young and ambitious writers, who
become discouraged at the non-accept-
anee and non-appearance in print OF
their accepted articles it VIII be inter
esting to know what Edward Clarence
Stedman writes in a current magazine
that Mr.. Fields of the Atlantic Monthly
once advised him that he had lots of
stuf-, which had been in an unpub-
lishsd state for five years. Stedman
adds that one OF his famous South
Sea Idyls" remained in their Office for
seven years before It found its way
into print.
