CHAPTER XIII.

The sun WAS nearly two hours high
when LATTE awoke from slumber. and
prepared to make himself ready for
the responsible ami arduous duties ly-
ing before him.
In view of Laro's dying request, he
had considered carefully the arrange
ments for Lazalies immediate future,
and this he unfolded to Maam Brigida,
Lazalies old nurse and companion,
after sending Ezrah to superintend
the gathering of such stores as were
to be taken to the shore, preparatory
to putting them aboard the BLACK Pc
treP' and another craft, which was to
sail under command of Ezrah, who, in
addition to his other valuable attain
ments, was skillful navigator.
AS to the slaves, of whom there
were several hundred, it was not pru-
dent to attempt taking them in body
to louisiana and LATTE decided, for
the present to leave by far the great
er number of them upon the island,
where there was abundant food and
shelter. and take with him only a few,
including such as Lazalie should select
for her own
A rustic of draperies, stealing of
perfume like that of jessamine flowers,
a pair OF soft arms thrown about his
neck, and rain of passionate kisses
on his face and head-these reused

by tears, cried, Jean, my own Jean"
He tried to rise, and to unclasp the
arms clinging TO him so closely that it
was difficult for him to disengage them
without risk of hurting her. "~
Still clinging to him, she threw her
supple form across his knees.
You have been so long, so long
away, and | was so glad you had come
back to me! All, Jean will you not
know how dearly love you? 1 would
follow you to death if you would but
say that you love me in return!'"

sessed a mans nature. But there was
scarce an added throb to his heart

There was general rejoicing over
Lopez's escape. But this feeling was
in a measure, tempered by anger at
Ehewah's treachery; and hard indeed
would have been the Indians fate
could any of those sinewy hands have
grasped his brown throat.
When the gunner's story was ended,
a half-suppressed roar had surged
through the room, to be hushed by the
uplifted hand and reproving frown of
Latitte; for Lazalie had not yet left
the table, but sat, with Ma'am Brigida
beside her. at the farthest end Her
red lips were parted slightly, and an
angry light glowed in her black eyes.
/ why did you fail to kill the In
dian?" she demanded imperiously, as
if holding Lopez accountable for a
grave offense.

mouth huge piece of turtle meat

should have killed him
How was | to do that?" he asked
with a scowl, as if feeling the unjust
ness of her accusation. Il had wasted

more gracious tone; "and we are very
glad you escaped. But" she added,
what could have happened that Ehe-
wah should think of committing such
an act of treachery?"
LATTE caught Lopez's eye; and,
obeying the command he saw in the
formers look, the gunner made no re-
ply.

AT this, gripping her white arms
with unconscious force, he tore them
from his neck, and pushed her from

criminal before a judge.

UNIQUE Punishment.

Forcing a cigarette smoker to give
up for one year the use of cigarettes
is the novel sentence Judge in
Pennsylvania has passed upon a young
man brought before him for obtaining
goods under false pretenses. While the
course of this court could not be fol-
lowed exactly in many cases, there is
something in the spirit of its ruling
that will appeal to all who condemn
indiscrim:nate punishment. The young
man might have gone tc prison for a
year, but that would have marred his
life. Besides there may have been
members OF his family dependent upon
him for support who during his alb
sence would have stuff bred quite as
much as he. Always pursuing CON
ventional lines of punishment some of
the shadow of the punishment falls
upon innocent persons. This is inev-
liable. But in this case the offender
is the only sufferer, and no one doubts
that he will be very unhappy and sin
cerely sorry that he ever went wrong.
And what other ends can punishment
have in view?

Miss Wilson has boarded at the
home of 0. E. Livermore. She simu
lated the ways of college girls and
numbered among her intimate asso
ciates a score or more of the leading
members of the freshman class. She
gave theater parties, suppers and

has devoted herself entirely to young
women acquaintance, her outward

She made no reply, but turned and
left the room.
Two stories of the building were
above ground; how many there were
below was known definitely to no one
save Lafitte, Lazalie and Maam Brig
ida. Ezrah and a few of the sub-of-
ficers knew something of the vaults
and passages but they were ignorant
of the treasure concealed there,-its
bulk, value, and location
Lafitte, not wishing the Arab to OBJ
tain more accurate knowledge, pro
ceeded, with the Irishwoman's help, to
empty the chests and pack their con
tents for removal.
The chests were soon emptied, and
the bundles lying reay for removal.
Early in the afternoon the entire
crew came ashore with the body of
their dead captain and all on the
island were given half-holday, in
order that they might show respect to
its interment.
LaZalie was not present; and La
fitte saw her no more until evening.
when with high-held head and scorn-
full air, she joined him and the others
at the table, to partake of the last
meal that would DE eaten on the Bar
ra de Hero.
In the midst of it they were startled
by the sudden appearance in their
midst of bedraggled and weary form.
1t was that of the gunner, Lopez, who
still wet from the sea, and his gar
ments torn by the thickets through
which he had pushed his way, dropped
silently into a chair seemingly too
worn out for speech. His face was
white, and a bandage enveloped his
head.
1t was as LATTE had supposed and
contemplated. Ehewah, by help of the
charts he had stolen, had gained the
enemys favor; and the latter, in con-
sequence of the information furnished
by the Indian, had lost no time in re-
pairing damages, and setting sail in
pursuit of the brigantine.

Webs GIRL II AT ACE OF 80
Remarkable Los Angeles Father Has
Seventh Child at 96-Breaks
Two Ribs at 90.

Los Angeles, Cal.-At the age of 80
Simon Hendricks, of this city, went
a-wooing and married senorita aged
q. When he was 81 his first child was
born. When he was SO his seventh
child was born. Now, aged SO, he
breaks two ribs while at work, and is
recovering.
Hendricks is a brickmason of this
city, and will be SO years old on April
20, and among the things for witch
he is thankful are the facts that the
two ribs recently broken are mending
nicely and that his youngest child, Au-
rora, aged three, is as healthy and
happy as any girl of her years in
town.
Cupid did not figure seriously in Mr.
Hendricks career for several years
after his birth. In fact, he renamed
a shrinking bachelor until he was
so. Then the 80-year-old brickmasoD
won the heart of senorita named
Encarnacion Peters. She was q
when she became his bride July 3,
1887. The marriage took place here
and the children, seven of them, were
born in southern California.
Hendricks says that he has smoked
tobacco and drank liquor most of his
life He was born in Somerset, KY,
April 20, 1907. This was eight years
before Waterloo. He has personal rec
objections of events which are now
