Schmidt, Karl had taken another peep beyond.
Sure enough, almost at once a London & North
western Railway bus deposited the first cOnsign-
1nent of Merlin folk at the hotel entrance. Out
of the next conveyance stepped two women, whom
| recognized, from the description supplied by
Karl as Mrs. Hutchinson and her daughter.
| must confess that the sight of them gave me
shock well prepared though l was for their appear
ance Yet it is thing to expect certain
experience but entirely another to undergo it-as,
to wit being ready for the sensation of a needle
bath and receiving the impact OF the icy jets of
water on your bare skin.
1t was exceedingly strange to see the mother
and daughter unconscious objects of experiments
of epOch-narking Importance quietly appearing
at the door of London hotel under ordinary
conditions open to any of the well-dressed,
unheeding crowd within or the hurrying multitude
without.
They passed through the revolving doors and
looked about them. Karl stepped forward. some

his smiling disingenuousness. You see he fancied
he had to introduce himself being a tall man
in place of the little boy Mrs Hutchinson had last
seen and whom Maggie wholly fail to remember

"Oh, mOther. she CTIed a-IlI-
there he is"
So curious1v perturbed was she, so
timid and child-like in her words and
attitude, that Grier's conventional vel
come died away in his throat Yet he
held out his hand. and the girl, stepping
forward impulsively, caught 1t in both Of
hers.
But her eyes filed with tears and the
corners of her mouth quivered and not
another word could she utter. The scene
was unexpected, embarrassing, and of
course dreadfully un-English. And what
did it all signify?

IN age health and sturdiness, was gifted with

turned out of the hotel.
Indeed. that monstrOus British dread OF
induced me to beseech Karl not to go wan
through space until the conditions w
private We had four hours to spare, SO
strolled to HYDE Park and back, and tlnall
in the hotel vestibule the advent OF the tW
1t was the height of the London season
the many fine days which the world cap
ages to smuggle in between layers OF tog an
storm was drawing to a close. And how
majestic, how radiantly calm, is London
at such an hour The purple haze OF
evening plorifies the harsh lines of myriad
roofs; the long rows of twinkllng lights
seem to have been designed by Whistler;
beneath the opulent robe of the great city
one can hear its tremendous heart beating
peacefully.
1t was Grier's first adult experience of
London, and was certain that 1t affected
him powerfully. He told me later that
he was tempted many times to expand
those awesome caverns of his brain and
seek to understand with their seemingly
unreasonable receptive capacity the
giant influences at work amid that vast
aggregation of humanity. But he re-
sisted successfully, feeling somewhat
awed, even little frightened, by the
belief that he alone, among the passing
thousands, was endowed with almost
omniscent knowledge of the actions and
utterances of his fellow-men. Not OF
their thoughts-there was something OF
that to cOme-a grand expansion OF that
sympathetic transmission of ideas vaguely
known to men and animals since the
Spirit moved over the face of the waters
and the heavens and the earth and all the
host of them were finished. But not yet.
The most sceptical of scientists could
not accuse Karl of flights of magma
ton for he recorded naught except
positive facts of contemporary occur
renee That, to me, was the most start
ling feature Of his sixth sense. There
scarcely exists a man or woman OF any
real intelligence who has not at one time
or another communicated the unspOken
thought to another at distance. Truly,
this comparatively general attribute OF
mankind is a far more stupendous and
less comprehensive achievement than
Karl's tclegnomy. But, as Hooper said
about the wheel and the use of fire, we
soon become SUBJECTED with wonders.
The hands of the great clock over the
fireplace crept slowly past eleven
thirty p. NJ, the hour named in the tele-
gram from the shipping company as that
at which the Merlin passengers would
reach Euston. Thence, with the best of
intentions, otherwise a fast hanson, the
Hutchinson woman could not arrive at
the hotel much before midnight
Nevertheless, at quarter to twelve,
Grier showed some signs of restlessness.
| have often thought that these physical
indications of the psychic force pent up
in certain tiny pyramida1 cells situated
within the cortex of the gray matter of
the brain greatly resembled the throb-
bings and strainings and extraordinarily
minute movements of a boiler getting

THE LOOMING NATION"


Now the American immigration
question in Canada has reached eli
max. 1t takes only three years for an
Immigrant to earn a vote in Canada,
and $4,000 former American voters
will soon come into their Canadian
suffrage. There are in round num-
bers 100000 males more than 1S years
Of age in western Canada who former
ly lived in the United States, 10000
of whom are old enough to vote There
are now between 100000 and 100000
settlers, with possible voting pop
ulation of 100000, a high per centage
because many cattlemen without fam
lilies are emigrating from Montana
and Wyoming. BY the end of 1905
the American vote in the Canadian
West will be overwhelming.
In eastern Canada thousands of peo.
pie believe that this invasion means
the ultimate annexation of Western
Canada by the United tates. It is
called "the coming nation. The
Worlds Work.

Battre Pulled a Recalcitrant Gun

The case of Charles Battre, charged with felonious assault on the person of T. c. Archer, came to trial in the dis trict court yesterday afternoon at 3.30 before Judge Sloan.
 A jury was secured within thirty minutes, the court then taking re- cess until 9.3O this morning.
 The attorneys for the defense are Le Roy Anderson, and A. l.. Ham mond, the prosecution being conducted by District Attorney Ellinwood.
 The story of the alleged assault, which was committed in or near the Prescott hotel of this city, is as fol lows:
 It appears that Battre and Archer had a contract for the unwatering of the Storm Cloud mine, which, owing to various reasons, was not completed on time, and hence there was some difficulty about the collecting of the money due them.
 This fact led to trouble and quarrels between Battre and Archer, which eul- minated in an altercation at or near the Prescott hotel, during which alter cation, it is alleged, Battre drew revolver on Archer, and pulled the trigger twice, the gun missing fire both times. Bystanders then interfer- ed, and the trouble was allowed to g" no further. Battre was arrested, in dicted by the grand jury, and releas- ed on bail awaiting trial.
