CHAPTER XI.
THE LAST DITCH.

1t was mark of the later and larg-
er development of David Kent that he
was able to keep his head in the mo-
ment of catastrophies. In boyhood
his hair had been a brick-dust red, and
having the temperament which be-
longs of right to the auburn-hued, his
first impulse was to face about and
make personal matter of the legal
robbery with Judge MacFarlane
Happily for all concerned, Hunni-
colts better counsels prevailed, and
when the anger fit passed Kent found
himself growing cool and determined.
Once free of the courth ouse, Kent
began rapid-fre of questions.
Where is Judge MacFarlane stop
ping?"
AT the Mid-Continent."
tends leaving town."
mo; but he will probably take the
first train. He never stays here an
hour longer than he has to after ad-
journment.'
THAT would be the Flyer east at six
o'clock. Is he going east?"
Come to think of it, I believe he is.
Somebody said he was going to Hot
Springs. He's in miserable health
Kent saw more possibilities, and
worse, and quickened his pace little
What do we do?" asked Hunnicott,
willing to take little lesson in prac-
tice as he ran.
The affidavits 1 have brought with
me and the kilograms which are wait
ing at the station must convince Mac
Farlane that he has made a mistake.
We shall prepare motion for the dis
charge of the receiver and for the va
cation of the order appointing him,
and ask the judge to set an early day
| for the hearing on the merits of the
case. He can't refuse"
Hunnicott shook his head.
ut has been all cut and dried from
way back" he objected. They
won't let you upset it at the last mo-
ment''
We'll give them a run for their
money" said Kent
By five o'clock Kent was in the lobby
of the Mid-Continent, sending his card
up to the judges room. Word came
back that the judge was in the cafe
| fortifying the inner man in prepare
ton for his journey, and Kent did
not stand upon ceremony. From tbs
| archway of the dining-room he
marked down his man at a small
table in the corner, and went to him
at once. plunging promptly into the
matter in hand.
| The exigencies of the case mus,
plead my excuse for intruding upon
you here, Judge MacFarlane," he be-
gan courteously. But I have beer
told that you were leaving town"
The judge waved him down with q
deprecatory fork.
Court is adjourned, Mr.. Kent, and
l must decline to discuss the case ez
parte. Why did you allow it to go BY
default?'s
That is precisely what l am here to
explain" said Kent, suavely. The
time allowed us was very short; and
a series of accidents
Again the judge interrupted.
"a court can hardly take cognizance
of accidents, Mr.. Kent. Your local at
torney was on the ground and he had
the full benefit of the delay

Notes for Women
To Hold Safety Pins

Take piece of fancy silk-a Dresden
design will be prettiest-twelve inches
long and eight inches wide, and piece
of white satin the same size; baste
lightly to each piece OF silk a piece of
cotton batting the same size. Sprinkle
the cotton generously with violet sachet
powder, and fold all evenly together
so that the silks are ON the outside.
Take satin ribbon of the color predom-
mating in the fancy silk and bind all
four edges neatly together, mitering
the corners and joining the ribbon neat
ly under one of the miterings. Stick
the white satin side full of black and
white safety pins of different sizes,
placing them in rows. Fold in three
folds and on the edge of the ribbon
of the last fold sew on a piece of the
satin ribbon the same as the binding,
long enough to go around and tie In a
pretty bow holding all together. This
case, being very compact, will make a
most useful addition to ones travelling
bag.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2S-Alfred Sutro,

Of examiners has been spending several
days at the Southern California hospital
for the insane, near this city, the past
week, looking into conditions there with
q view of ascertaining what improve

legislature. 1t is probable that an ap-
propria ton will be asked for the con-
struction of two receiving cottages, one
for men and one for women. In many
of the best eastern asylums this system
is in vogue, the new patients being re-
ceivcd into this cottage which is sep
arate and away from the main wards.
There they are given special treatment
and an average of forty per cent are
