Gently visited of the schools under his There

ranged from 13 to 16 years

questions.
The first involved the multiplication, addition and d-
vision of simple fractions
The second was Discount note for $500 for six

The silence which followed was like that reputed to
descend upon certain classroom in university not far
away, where terrible professor propounds question:

What would be the result if the unexpected tests
should be put to the children in our schools?

Mrs. Potter Palmer, long society

ons themselves, talk with the con.
victs, learn their possibilities and
ambitions and lend every possible
assistance to putting them in the
way of ultimate reform upon their
release. And they are really doing
this.
Whenever a prisoner evinces a
desire to reform, his name is en-
rolled upon the books of Hope
Hall. When released the convict
goes to the hall, is suitably clothed,
provided with accommodations and
maintained until position is found
for him.
The employer is put into full pos
session of the facts regarding the
employee. His sympathies are en-
listed, and he becomes the convict's
defender as well as his employer.
The fellow employees know nothing
of the convict's past. He is shell
tered on every side until hope is
revived and ambition restored.
Comparatively few Of these men be-
tray this trust.
The local organization, with
which society leaders have allied
themselves, is the Volunteer Prison
league. 1t operates under the aus
pieces of the Volunteers of America.

confessed thief, according to the po-
lice, of the $4,000 package of jew

Express company.
He was arrested in Jersey City
after trying to dispose of the entire
collection for SO. The sale of a
$4,000 necklace for 25 cents led to
his capture.
The prisoner was a helper on one

more or less in trap. But there
was no sign of disturbance outside
and Silva began to feel that he had
only one man to deal with. If he
could persuade Walter that Vera
was no longer in the house, the
, cunning Italian knew perfectly
well that his skin was safe until
Lord Ravenspur and the others had
found the girl.
I'VE are on even terms now"
Silva said. "In fact, the odds are
in your favor. l am not armed, and
you are the stronger man. If you
will wait a few moments | will go
and get a candle, and the you shall
see for yourself that Miss Rayne Is
not in the house"
81 am sorry" Walter said coldly;
"but l should prefer to accompany
you. Your word is hardly suf-
fcient."
Silva's eyes flashed.
"Well, there is candle outside
on the land" he said. 81 will go
and fetch it. You will be able to
see me all the way there and
back"
"Silva threw the door wide open
and strobe out into the corridor. AS
he struck a match Walter could
see dimly up the next flight of
stairs. 1t was only for moment,
but he distinctly saw the outline
of figure there, and signal made
by the waving of a white arm. 1t
was with difficulty that he repress-
ed cry He now knew that the
Italian had been lying to him, and
that Vera was in the house. When
he glanced up again the figure had
vanished.
Silva was, apparently, a long
time getting the candle to burn to
his satisfaction. There was a queer
smile upon his face, for he had
turned in an unfortunate moment
and his quick eye had detected the
| figure at the top of the stairs. In
those few seconds he had made up
| his mind what to do.
And now, sir" he said almost
| CAVITY, as he placed the candle on
the table, before | proceed to sat
isfy you that your suspicious are
unfounded, permit me to offer you
my hospitality. You look rather
shaken, and l must apologize for
the you in which threw you lit
tie time ago. | must insist upon
your accompanying me as far as
the dining room, so that | may give
you glass Of wine"
| Walter hesitated, but only for a
moment. He was feeling more
shaken and battered than he cared
to own. Every now and again a
feeling of deadly faintness came
upon him. On the whole, he decided
that he would be all the better for
accepting Silva's offer.
"That is very thoughtful of you, u
he said. Il shall be very glad Of a
stimulant of some kind"
Once in the dining room, Silva
took a decanter from the sidebOard
and poured out glass of port. Wal.
ter took it almost greedily and
gulped it down at draught. The
wine seemed to soothe him. He
sank down in a chair with his
hands over his eyes, and, before he
knew where he was, he had sunk
into a deep sleep.
/, AS Silva bent over the uncon-
scious body a hoarse laugh broke
from his lips. Then something
seemed to sting and burn his cheek.
He started back to see Vera stand
ing before him.
"You scoundrel!" she cried. "You
have murdered him!"
In her anger she cast all fear
aside. She caught up a heavy de-
canter from the sideboard and sent
it crashing through the window.
The wkhole house rang with her
cries for assistance.
