He entered timidly. He stood be-
fore the editor twisting the brim OF
his soft, black hat with long, white
poetic fingers.

am very sorry. But we can not use
your poem. This is final"
Tears welled up in the young mans
eyes. He swallowed.
"Why?" he said
"Well, to be candid" the editor re-
piled, neither in prosody nor in con-
struction is this poem meritorious.
The idea is old. The sentiment is
maudlin. The expression is atrocious.
The rhymes are vile"
But now a light as of great joy
iIIumined the poets face and he cried
eagerly:
Give me back the manuscript
Give it back to me-
Every WE'LL" said the editor; "bus
/ don't see what you can do with it."
"Set it to music" cried the poet
Make popular song Of it. With
the qualifications you ascribe it I'M
doubtedly will be the hit of the sea-
son."

NEW FOOD LAW

for just what it is, and not try to kill it
by heavy tax Manufacturers some
times try to force measures in their
own interests, but contrary to the in
terests of the people and the labor
trust is always active to push through
bills drafted in the interest of that
trust but directly contrary to the in
terests of the people as whole. Wit
ness the anti-injunction bill by which
labor unions seek to tie the hands OF
our courts and prevent the issue OF
any order to restrain the members of
that trust from attacking men or de-
stroying property. Such bill Is per-
haps the most infamous insult to our
courts and the common people ever
laid before Congress and the Represen-
tatives in Congress must be held to
strict accountability for their acts re-
lating thereto. But when bills come
before Congress that are drawn in the
interests of all the people they should
receive the active personal support or
the people and the representatives be
instructed by the citizens. The Sena-
tors also should be written to and in
structed. If, therefore, you will re-
member your privilege and duty you
will at once-now-write to your Con-
gresham and Senator on this pure
food bill. Clip and enclose the copy
herewith presented and ask them to
make a business of following it through
the committee considering 1t. Urge
its being brought to vote and re-
questing that they vote for it.

easily done, monsieur. Late this
afternoon | was near the hill Cha
rome. when my attention was at
tracted by white handkerchief nut
tering from the barred window or a
house. an upper window, too. l Knew
the place-it was the private mad
house of M. Girard, and many stories
have been told about it among my
fellows.
"My attention being directed, | saw
a white hand beckon me.
81 do not know what influenced me-
monsieur, save some spirit OF deviltry.
| saw there was an empty house next
door, and from the roof of this could
lust reach the window where that
hand beckoned.
This did, and discovered two
beautiful ladies looking out between
the wooden bars One of the ladies'
spoke to me in French, and told me
where to take the note. They en-
treated me not to linger-I pitied
their distress, and making my best
bow. which | learned at the Elysees
Montmartre balls, came away.
need say no more, messieurs, as you
are already acquainted with the rest
of the story"
what hour was this?" asks Dick.
"The bells were just tolling i've
when I left the roof" responds the
strange half man, half boy.
Dick groans.
"Hours lost-more than two OF
them-if we had only returned before
dining"

The only thing that remains is to see
whether this story is true. How shall
we know until we prove it?"
Through me, messieurs."
It is not the street Arab who speaks,
for he has flown down to the avenue,
a king, as it were, a bloated bond
holder in his mind-Dick whirls upon
his heel to face the speaker Of those
cool words.

CHAPTER vl.-Continue6.

LET me CO." says his friend. I'm
the younger, and besides my weeds
have run out, and can't buy any this
side of that cigar store on the Champs
de Mars. I'll bring some down with
me-also your truant watch, for you've
acted confoundedly queer all the af-
ternoon-just like mariner without
his compass, by Jove!" with which
remark he runs off up the steps Of
the house, while Dick leans against
a post and waits for him, smiling at
the allusion to his uneasiness, and
wondering whether it was the alb
sence of his watch of something else,
that has made him feel like ship
minus a rudder.
He stands there for just five min
utes, and then hears sounds that cause
him to turn. What meets his vision
amazes Dick-a trim figure of man
has recently left his side. and here
comes a demoralized specimen flying
down the stairs, waving his hand
wildly above his head, and presenting
something of the appearance Dick has
seen when this same New Mexican
sheriff was charging the camp of
dozen border desperadoes, whom he
had on his list as characters to arrest.
Something has evidently gone
wrong, or Colonel Bob would not be
making such a spectacle of himself.
Dick conceives sudden show Of in
terest-in the short interval that re-
mains to him ere his companion ar
rives he tries to realize what it may
mean, and gives several wild guesses
before Bob reaches his side.
The New Mexican sheriff arrives,
painting like a tired hound-he can
only with an effort catch his breath,
and then blurts out his news in his
usual jerky fashion
They're gone!-the villain has won
at last!-cooped up in a mad-house!
What dye think of that? and we
promenading and feasting all the
while!. Only for the adorable Dora,
even now we would be ignorant of
their fate!"

horrors of leprosy.
IAN American, tourist, suppose,

isn't he?" Baptist minister asked.
Indeed he is afraid" said Mr.. Yin

Does he run away?

those of another person made famous
by the novelist's pen, "devilish sly"
for he certainly was not there a min
ute before.
"Ah and who might you be, my
good sir?" demands Dick, accepting
the situation.
Francois, better known as Num-
Der Eleven, in Connection with the
work of the project" returns the
quiet-looking Individual.
"Ah! you are one of the secret
agents?'
"Oui, monsieur" bowling.
You know this story of the street
Arab"
ct is true-I have seen the ladies
myself, though not to communicate
with them. Then l made my report
at headquarters and was directed to
find NJ. Denver and his friend"
Having found them, my good Fran
cois?"
ITO tell my story and offer my
services" promptly.
"Good-we accept. You viii lead
us to this place, this private mad
house Of Girard's, where they shut

gold has entered the game. NJ. Fran

what manner of men they have out
on the plains of the Southwest
zone question, messieurs, before we
go-are you armed. We may have
little difficulty with the men Of DR..
Girard. They are a rough lot, and
may show fight"
Nothing would please us better,
says Dick.
1--WE been spelling for a little &C
ton these two months-ever since we
had that affair in Ireland, where they
took us for constables and tried to
shillelah us. It's been an age since
so much time went by without some

in" declares Bob.

sieurs"

l"What." gasps Dick.

what" gasps Dick.
Just what | say-they're caught
and Gagged
Here, in Paris?"
Yes"
And in broad daylight"
1T must be so-some of the doings
of that devil of a Senior Lopez. I'll
be even with him yet" growls the
sheriff, very much as a dog might
humble over his bone when another
animal comes near.
THE paper-let me have it, says
Dick. with extraordinary calmness,
considering the tact that his blood Is
leaning like mad through his veins,
while his heart thumps like a trip
hammer.
Another instant and it is thrust
into his hand.
The note has been hastily written
on a sheet from a diary-it is adj
dressed on one side to Colonel Robert
Harlan. with the number and street
of their lodgings, and is signed by
Dora. This is what Dick ~eads;
my Colonel:-We have been de-
coyed to this house-believe 1t is a
priyate mad-house. For Heavens
sake come to our rescue. l do not
know why this has been done, only
that he is at the bottom of 1t, the
man who is Miss Pauline's enemy.
We shall defend ourselves II need be.
Give the bearer ten francs. He will
tell you where this place is-some-
where near the Boulevarde de Cha
rome, for have had glimpses OF
cemetery on a hill, which l am sure
must be Pere la Chaise, and a great
prison towers in view, undoubtedly La
Roquette. Come. my brave colonel
and save your own Dora.
When Dick finishes reading this re
markable epistle he utters something
that is not at all complimentary Il
the Mexican hidalgo. and it is eviden
that the young mans temper is sucl
that should he meet Senior Lope
presently, there would possibly be
scene.
See here, colonel. where's the bear
err" he suddenly demands.
81 told him TO follow me-" say
HON. looking around. when. as thougl
this may be a signal. a rather dilaT
sdated street Arab hobs into view.
Dick attacks him impetuously.
