Dame Ermyntrude.
And now when the trest1es were cleared and the
three were left alone in the hall Chandos broke his
message to the lady. King Edward hath ever
borne in mind that noble knight your son Sir
Eustace," said he. " He will journey to Southamp-
ton next week, and l am his harbinger He bade
me say, noble and honored lady, that he would come
from Guildford in any easy stage that he might
spend one night under your roof"
The old dame flushed with pleasure ard then
turned white with veXation at the words. g 1t
is in truth great honor to the house of Lorng,"
said she, vet our roof is humble and as YOU
have seen, our fare is plain. The King knows not
that we are SO poor fear lest we seem chur1sh
and nggard in his eyes
But Chandos reasoned away her fears. The
Kings retnue would journey to Farnham
Castle. There were no ladies in his party. Though
he was King still he a hardy soldier, and cared
little for his In any case, he had declared
his coming, they must make the best of it Finally,
with all deicacy, Chandos offered his own purse if
it would help in the matter But already the Lady
Ermyntrude had recovered her composure.
Nay, fair kinsman, that may not be-, said she.

Loring can give nothing else, they have always held
their blood and their lives at his disposal
Chandos was to ride to Farnham Castle and
beyond but he expressed his desire to have a warm
bath ere he left Tilford, for like of his fellow
knights he was much addicted to simmering in the
hottest water that he could possibly endure The

privacy of the guest-chamber, and thither it was

Nigel perched h1mSef
upon the side of the high
bed, swinging his legs over
the edge and gazing with
wonder and amusement
at the quaint face, the
ruffled yellow hair, and the
sinewy shoulders of the
famous warrior, dimly
seen amid a pillar of
steam. He was in a mood
for talk; SO Nigel with
eager lips piled him with
a thousand questions
about the wars, hanging
upon every word which
came back to him, like
those of the ancient ora
cles, out of the mist and
the cloud. To Chandos
himself, the old soldier
for whom war had lost
its freshness, it was a
renewal of his own ardent
youth to listen to Nigels
rapid questions and to
mark the rapt attention
with which he listened.

BLAMED ON THE DOGS.
T reneh Scientist Says CANNES Respon.
sible for tuberculosis.

PARIS, Oct. 20.-Professor Landou-
cy of the faculty Of medicine makes a
remarkable statement that dogs are
largely responsible for the spread Of
tuberculosis. This disease has been
not only prevalent but on the increase
among dogs during the last five years.
The proportion of tuberculosis among
dogs dissected at Alfort Veterinary
school has risen from Az to per
cent. Most of the diseased animals
belonged to the small cafe and res
taurant keepers in Paris and suburbs.
The professor cites a case in his ex-
perience of music hall singer who
died of consumption and ner INSOFAR
able lap dog diesd soon after his mis-
tress, and was found to have tubercu-
losis of the lungs, bronchial tubes
and liver.
Landoucy thinks the woman caught
the disease from the dog. On the other
hand, dogs may be contaminated by
human beings In either case, the
danger of tuberculosis in pets, es-
pecially when small children are al
lowed to fondle them, is undoubted.

new SHELL NOT EFFECTIVE
ARMY ORDNANCE EXPERTS HAVE
COMPLETED INVESTIGATION
OF THE NEW SHELL.
Test Of New Implement Filled With An
Anaesthetic Proves 1t to Be
Failure.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The army
ordnance experts have just concluded
a series of experiments with a new
shell filled with an anaesInetic, which,
the inventor believed, was destined to
rob war of a great deal of it's terrOrs.
According to his plan, the enemy was
to be bombarded with such shells
which, upon exploding, would release
a powerful anaesthetic in the form of
gas. He was confident, that the anaes-
thetic would be powerful enough to put
a whole regiment to sleep and make
it possible to capture the soldiers
without killing or wounding them. The
experiments, however, did not bear out
the correctness of the inventors the
ory. The tests were made on the
Sandy Hook proving grounds. The
test resulted a fiat failure. The
gas did not even put single rabbit

women in South Chicago yesterday
afternoon. He told woman who had
been married two months that one Of
her children would soon meet with a
bad fate Friends Of the woman
chased him, throwing sticks and stones
as he fed. Only the Intervention of a

Fortunes at 10 cents each, printed
on cards, were picked from a box by a
parrot and given to women anxious
for glimpses into the future.

The president said in part: "The
corporations need regulation, but we
must not forget that there are no
troubles about corporations where
the poverty of the country IS such
that it is not worth while to form
corporations. There is no difficulty in
regulating railroads where the re-
sources are so few that it doesn't pay
to build railroads. The growth OF
corporations means the growth of In
dustry and fortunes. The growth OF
wealth has some very unfortunate ac-
commandments, but it seems to me the
worst damage the people OF wealth.

in our breasts either Of the mean vice
of worshipping more wealth or OF
viewing with rancorous envy and ha-
tired the man of wealth merely be-
cause he is wealthy. The corporation
is a creature of the state. 1t should
always be held accountable to its
sovereign. and this accountability snail
be real, not a sham. Therefore, IN
nv Judgment, corporations should be
held accountable to the federal gov
ernment But we should not strive
to limit nor prevent corporate ac-
tivity."
The president discussed cotton,
which led him to the Chinese boycott.
He said we must by all means ex-
clude the Chinese Coolie class In Or

laws as to admit students and pro-

GOLDFTELD, New, Oct. 20.-The
sensation of the week is the great
strike made in the Kendall mine on
Columbia mountain, within mile OF
the town of Goldfield. A vein of ore
four feet wide that averages clear
across S1,1O0 a ton has been disclosed
at the twenty-foot level. On the sur
face where the strike was made, the
owners of the Gardner Oddie lease had
taken out $15O,000 worth of ore. The
Iessees didn't have time to go to any
depth, and the present strike has been
made within three feet Of their work.
ings by the company itself. When first
disclosed the vein showed to be two
feet wide. few feet more of develop
ment work revealed it to be four feet
wide. Ore is now being brought to the
surface from this vein and is being
sacked preparatory to shipment.
There are more men at work in the
Goldfield district now, three to one,
than there were last spring, and tre-
mendous activity is observed in every
direction. In the shipment of ore to
the samplers and smelters, Goldfield
is rapidly shatiterng all previous rec
ords of mining districts. This has not
been so much in the gross tonnage as
in the remarkably high average in the
values. During the remaining three
months of 1905, the output of Goldfield
is conservatively estimated by Mining
Engineers ]. F. Mitchell and w. A.
Stanton at over s750,OOO month. The
first weeks output from the district
dating from the completion of the rail-
road. Sept 14-aggregated 234o tons
of ore, having a total value Of $780,

month. If this gait were kept up,
Goldfeld would be producing close to
as much wealth every thirty days, aft
er but two years of development, as
Cripple Creek is after Is.
