We're throwing a somewhat uncertain
light over a scene of devastation and
ruin. The furniture of the table and
the accessories of the meal lay in a
broken heap at the foot Of it, the chairs
were overturned, the curtains torn; the
great sideboard had been swept bare
of it's usual load Of glittering silver.
At his feet lay the body Of man in
the now familiar red uniform, blood
from a CHASTITY sword thrust clotted
about his throat, the floor about his
head being covered with ominous
stains. A little farther away on the
door near the table there was the body
Of another man in another uniform, a
naked sword lying by his side. He had
frightful looking wound on his fore
head, and the blood was slowly oosing
out OF his coat sleeve, staining the lace
at his left wrist Even as he looked
the man turned little on the floor,
and the same low moan broke from his
lips. Talbot stepped over the first body
to the side Of the other.

knelt beside him, as Katharine had
done. Seymour" he called, .'Sey-
mour" The man opened his eyes slow
ly and looked vacantly at him.

Half His Shirt.

They had finished the parish tea,
and the curate stood up to say a
few words to the recipients before
they dispersed. He spoke in eloz.
quent terms of the impecuniosity of
curates in general and then went on
to say in apparently touching tones,
"Why, even as [ stand before you
now l have only half a shirt to my.
back" A few days later the rev.
erend gentleman received a parcel
containing half a dozen new shirts,
accompanied by a card bearing the
name Of one Of his fair parishionerS.
At the earliest opportunity he called
upon the lady and thanked her for
her gift and then proceeded to ask
what had prompted the kind action
"Why," she replied, ''you told us
the other night that you only had
half shirt to your back" "True,

FACTS ABOUT MAHOGANY.
Where 1t Grows, Its Value and How It
d Is Prepared For Shipment.
fro BE Continued

q
The United States is not ma
hogany growing country, unless Gu
ba may now be said to be a part of
the United States. It is a tropical
wood. It's home is in Central Amer
lea and in Cuba, Jamaica and Santo
Domingo. These islands give the
smallest, but heaviest and prettiest
wood. British Honduras, Guatemala
and Nicaragua give the most and
Mexico the largest timber. The
richer, solid, heavy varieties come
from the islands. These will not
float. They are susceptible of
high polish, and the wood has a
rich, wavy figure. The pretty fig
ured pieces Of wood are Of great
value. A six foot piece, which in
cluded the crotch of tree, in GER
tain shipment brought about $500
when cut into veneers. !
No matter where a shipment Of
the wood comes from or what varie-
ty it is, there are always more or
less Of the fine, faky sticks that
make veneer. Mahogany is a phe-
nomenal wood, in that it does not
warp under any conditions of wealth
er, use or age. Neither does it >
shrink. 1t is of great beauty, hard
ness and durability. In no other
wood can these qualities be found
combined with large size, uniformi-
ty of grain and richness of color and
figure.
The island timbers are eight to
ten feet in length by twelve inches
in diameter, some from Cuba, how
ever, reaching thirty-fve feet in
length by two feet in diameter. Hon
duras squared timbers are as long as
forty feet by two feet in diameter,
and the three foot and four foot
timbers come from Mexico. The
softer mahogany comes from the
swampy lands. There are no ma
hogany forests. The trees are not :
grouped that way, the individual
trees being more or less widely sep
arated. Like other trees, the core
is the poorest part, often being
worthless.-Mississippi Valley Lum-
herman.

Talbot in an agony Of fear

well outside.
. Then he poured little of the wine
down the wounded mans throat. next
slit the sleeve of his coat and saw that
the scarcely healed wound in the arm
had broken out again. He bandaged
1t up with no small skill with some Of
the other neglected table linen, and
the effect upon Seymour Of the stimu-
liant and Of these ministrations was at
once apparent. With a stronger voice
he said slowly:

"Dick, see if you can find any Of

mander at Alexandria. Oh, that I had

Katharine was gone. He would not
tell his story tonight She was in the
hands of gang Of ruffians. He knew
the reputation of Johnson and the mo-
tives which might actuate him. There
had been struggle 1t was evident;
perhaps she had been wounded, killed.

her, and 1t was too late.
Presently the groom returned, fol-
lowed by mob of frightened, terror
stricken negroes, who had fed at the
first advent of the party. Talbot is
sued his orders rapidly. 'Some Of you

ILL hall the old sailor walked
G,1zM, over to the body Of the old
3S&Assssj soldier. Many quaint dis
pute these two old men had held in
their brief acquaintance, and upon no
one thing had they been able to agree
except in hatred Of the English and
love of their common country. Still
their disputes had been friendly, and if
they had not loved they had at least
respected each other.
s'I wish 1 had not been so hard on
the man. I really liked him." solilo-
Quized the sailor. "Poor Blodgett, al
most forgotten as Mr.. Talbot says!
He died the right way, though, doing
his duty, fighting for his country and
for those he loved. Well, he was a
brave man-for soldier" he murmur-
ed thoughtfully.
Out on the river the little sloop was
speeding rapidly along. Ride as thou
wilt, Philip, she cannot be overtaken.
Most Of the exhausted men lay about
the decks in drunken slumber. John

lowers were discussing the events Of

was the reply.

came near baking the whole game.
That was lucky shot you got in, Da-
Wis, after Evans missed and was hit.
That fellow was brave man-for a
rebel" said the raider.
In the cabin of the sloop Colonel
Wilton was sitting on one of the lock-
ers, his arm around Katharine, who
was leaning against him weeping, her
hands before her face. Desborough
was standing respectfully in front of
them.
"And you say he made good fghtY
asked the colonel sadly.
"Splendid, sir. We stole up to the
boathouse with muff1ed oars, wishing
to give no warning, and before he knew
it half Of us were on the wharf. He
challenged, we made a rush. He shot
the first man in the breast and Drained
the next with his dubbed musket,
shouting words Of warning the while.

young man, standing, astonished, in the
