Synopsis of Preceding Chapters

k ARL GRIER, though English boy of aver
age health and sturdiness, was gifted with
sixth sense, which the author termed feleguomy
or far-knowing. The first evidence of his extra
ordinary power was recorded when he was four
years old. He fell and was hurt and translated
to himself without difficulty the exclamations of
the persons about him, though the remarks were
given in German, French, Scottish dialect and
Indian. He understood the language of all ami
mails we'll.
One day, when living in India, he described
to his father plot to murder neghbor, which
he perceived distinctly though the plotters
miles away The plot frustrated and the
ruffans captured solely on his information.
At ten years of age he was taken to England
He astounded those on board the steamer by his
strange knowledge. For instance, he discerned
the moons of the planet Jupiter, and then in the
evening Armenian commercial man fell over
board. Though 1t in darkness the boy
guided the ships boat to the man in the water,
where Karl could see him distinctly mile away.
This man, Paul Constantine, conceived an ex-
travagant affection for Karl. The young 'teleg-
nomist" was sent to school, where he puzzled the
teacher with his psychic feats.
Grown to young manhood, Grier one night felt
desire to recall Maggie Hutchinson, girl he
had known India, and distinctly saw her eating
dinner with Constantine at a New-York seaside
resort, although he, Grier, was in England. He
called in Frank Hooper, an American, the next
evening to verify his impressions of New York,
which he never had seen, and to the visitors
astonishment translated the shrieks of a cat in
the courtyard Upon Hooper's suggestion he
again sought to find Maggie Hutchinson, and
called up an Atlantic liner outward bound from
New-York. The next evening he mentally
transported to New-York again. He awoke with
an exclamation about the villany of dramatic
agent named Steindal.
Karl explained that Constantine and Steinda1
in New-York decided to make Maggie Hutchin-
offer to go concert tour, Constantine
evidently having ulteror motive. So intent
was Karl in listening to the plot that he aroused
in the Armenian S mind vivid remembrance of
the time he was rescued from the sea, and
Constantine fell the table shrieking of
sharks.
Karl received a telegram from his mother ask
ing him meet the Hutchinsons upon their
arrival in London,

Schmidt Karl had taken another peep beyond
Sure enough, almost at once London & North
western Railway bus deposited the first consgn-
ment of Merlin folk at the hotel entrance. Out
of the next conveyance stepped two women, whom
l recognized, from the description supplied by
Karl as Mrs Hutchinson and her daughter
l must confess that the sight of them gave me
shock well prepared though was for their appear
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 your bare skin.
1t was exceedingly strange to see the mother
and daughter, unconscious objects of experiments
of epoch-marking Importance quietly appearing
at the door of a London hotel under ordinary
conditions open to any of the well-dressed
unheeding crowd within the hurryng multitude
without
They passed through the revolving doors and
looked about them. Karl stepped forward some
what shyly, though there was an instant charm in
his smiling disingenuousness. You see he fancicd
he had to introduce himself being now a tall man
in place of the little boy Mrs. Hutchinson had last
seen and whom Maggie must wholly fail to remember
AS TAR as mama concerned be sure she could not
distinguish Grier at first glance from any other
man present
But Maggie him instantly. She became
pale and her eyes, extremely pretty eyes they
(and are), dilated.

Oh, mother, She cried aloud,

So curiously perturbed was she, so
timid and child-ike in her words and
attitude, that Grier's conventional wei
come died away in his throat Yet he
held out his hand, and the girl, stepping
forward irpulsively, caught it in both Of
hers.
But her eyes filled 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

| went to the bureau again. The inquiry clerk
was apprehensive, but | only wanted the London
Directory. And therein | hunted up the entry:
"Bocci, Giovanni, concert agent, with a number
on a Strand side-street.
How did you know that Steindals London
representative named Bocci?" | asked Karl.
"Oh | forgot to tell you that Miss Hutchinson
held his card in her hand" He ratified off Slgnor

legend.

thought had he overheard the whole of karls
story Afterward when steeled to the marvel of
it all did not hesitate to prod the dull wits of the
heavy tribe which Emerson describes as only
understanding pitch-forks and the cry OF 'F1rel
But that evening | forebore, lest we should be
turned out of the hotel
Indeed that monstrous British dread of scene"
induced me to beseech Karl not to go wandering oft
through space until the conditions were more
private. We had four hours to spare, so we d1ned,
strolled to HYDE Park and back and finally awaited
in the hotel vestibue the advent of the two women
1t was the height of the London season-one of
the many fine days which the worlds capital man.
LAYERS of fog and Sheeted
Evening star., 1905-09-17

the many fine days which the worlds cap
ages to smuggle in between layers of fog an
storm was drawing to a close And how
majestic, how radiantly calm, is London
at such an hour! The purple haze of
evening glorifies the harsh lines of myriad
roofs; the long rows of twinlling lights
seem to have been designed by Whistler;
beneath the opulent robe of the great city
one can hear it's tremendous heart beating
peacefully.
1t was Griers first adult experience of
London and was certain that it affected
him powerfully He told me later that
he was tempted many times to expand
those awesone caverns of his brain and
seek to understand with their seemingly
immeasurable receptive capacity the
giant influences at work amid that vast
aggregation of humanity. But he re-
sisted successfully, feeling somewhat
awed, even a 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 co1ne-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
rot 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
READ 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 far more stupendous and
less comprehensive achievement than
Karrs teIegnoD'y. But, as Hooper said
about the wheel and the use of fire, we
soon become surfcited 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 fast hanson, the
Hutchinson woman could not arrive at
the hotel much before midnight.
Nevertheless, at a quarter to twelve,
Grier showed some signs of restlessness.

ACCIDENT INSURANCE.
Rates Show That One in Every Eight
 Insured is Injured.

Philadelphia Pa., Dec. 6.-The dele gates to the. convention of Accident In- surance companies, in session here to- day, discussed the question of reduc- ing or maintaining the rate of the first payment upon policies.
 The question of better payment to the solicitor was discussed at length by President V. s. Cliff, of Saginaw Mich, who maintained that it was inn possible to get good agents unless they were shown that they would re- ceive ample payment to justify them to solicit the better class of business. MT. Cliff said that in almost every case lapses were directly traced to the agent. The lapse ratio in new busi- ness, about 26 per cent per month, and in old business, about 6 per cent, and according to official reports from all the companies one in every eight in sured is injured.

Another capacity house greeted the Ethel Tucker company at the Hardwick last night when they presented Dora Thorne,' which was the first presen- tation of the play in Phoenix, and a more pleasing play has not been given during the engagement. Miss Tucker in the title role was especially win some and pleasing. The entire company was capable and did clever work.
 Special mention should be made of the new vaudeville team, Virden and Dunlap, who opened in a sketch that embraced clever musical and comedy features.
 Tonight an elaborate production of Faust is the bill, the company carry ing everything in the electrical and scenic. line for it. Miss Tucker will ap- pear as Marguerite" and MT. Brandon as "Mephisto.'

The play was thoroughly enjoyed and we'll merited the loud and frequent ap- plause it received. Tonight, "The Man From Mexico" will be presented with special scenery, costumes and new specialties. This is a comedy which is true to the name and has long been a favorite bill with eastern stock companies. Friday night "A Deserted Bride" will hold the boards and on Saturday matinee and nighD "A Wise Woman will again be presented by popular request. It was the intention of the management to produce "Was She Guilty?" but the demand for "A Wise Woman" has been so strong and persistent that the management has decided to accede to it.
