A False Alarm.

A nervous man on his lonely homeward
way heard the echoing Of following foot
steps, and dim visions Of hooligans, black
mailers and garroters coursed through
his brain. The faster he walked the more
the man behind increased his speed, and
though the nervous one took the most
roundabout and devious course he could
devise. still his tracker followed. At last
he turned into q churchyard.
'If he follows me here" he unused,
there can be no doubt about his inten-
tions." ''. ~.
The man behind did follow, and, CULVER
ing with rage and fear, the nervous one
turned and confronted him. What the
dickens do you want?' he queried. "Why
are you following me?"
do you always go home like this"
said the stranger, 'or are you giving
yourself treat tonight? i am going up
to Mr.. Browns, and the porter at the sta
tion told me to follow you. as you lived
next door. Excuse me asking, but are you
going home at all tonight?"

Tuen. in that first moment OF inac-
tivity, the fear of Martigny came back
upon me, Had he really gone to the
hotel? Had he deemed us not worth
watching? Or had he watched? Was
he on the train with us? Was he able
to followG The more though of him,
the more doubted my ability to de-
ceive him
Hooked out cautiously from the win
dow, up and down the platform. but
saw no sign OF him, and in a moment
more we ratified slowly away over the
switches sank back into my seat
with a sigh of relief. Perhaps had
really blinded him!
An hours run brought US to Beuze-
vile, where we were dumped out, to-
gether with out luggage, in a little
frame station. An official informed US
that we must walt there three hours
for the train for Les Ifs. Beyond that !?
He could not say. We might possibly
reach Etretat next day.
How far Is Les Ifs from here?" in
quired my companion. s.
About twelve kilometers, monsieur"
And from there to Etretat?"
rs twenty kilometers more. mon
sieur." .
''Thirty-two kilometers altogether"
said Mr.. Royce. That's about twenty
miles. Why can't we drive Lester? We
sour at the most"
Certainly 1t seemed better than wait
Ing on the uncertain railway, and we
sat at once about the work of finding
O vehicle. / could be OF little use, since
English was an unknown tongue at
Beuzeville, and even Mr.. Royce's
French was sorely taxed, but we sue
ceeded at last in securing a horse and
light trap, together with driver who
claimed to know the road. All this had
taken time, and the sun was setting
when we finally drove away nortEward.
The road was smooth and level--they
manage their road making better in
France--and we bowled along at good
rate past cultivated fields with little
dwellings like doll houses dotted here
and there. Occasionally we passed
man or woman trudging along the road
but as the darkness deepened, ii be-
came more and more deserted. In an
hour and half from Beuzeville, we
reached Les Ifs, and here we stopped
Tor light supper. We had cause to
congratulate ourselves that we had Sc
cured vehicle at Beuzeville, for we
learned that no train would start for
Etretat until morning. The damage
wrought by the storm of two days be-
fore had not yet been repaired, and
the wires were still down, and we were
warned that the road was badly washed
In places.
Luckily for us, the moon soon arose,
so that we got forward without much
difficulty, though slowly; and an hour
before midnight. we pulled up triumph
antly before the Hotel Banquet. the
principal inn Of Etretat. We lost no
time In getting to bed; for we wished
to be up betimes In the morning, and
fell asleep with the comforting be-
lief that we had at last eluded Mon
1ieur Martigny.

There was fracas at the Globe office
yesterday afternoon, and perhaps the
truth about Il will be interesting. For
many years, railroad officials have had
habit OF visiting towns on their lines
3nce q year, Led by the. local agent. they
gisit the newspaper offices, although the
railroad officials do not care to see the
sditors. We have stood this for twenty
nine years, owing to passes, but passes
having been withdrawn January l. 1907.
we rebelled yesterday: when Jim Garside
appeared at this office with a party OF
Santa Fe officials. we refused to let them
In. We regarded Jim Garside as the prin-
cipal offender, since he knew the officials
1id not care to see us, and since we have
often told him we did not care to see the
officials, therefore we pushed him down
the steps. which started the story that
there had been a fight. In the railroad
party were the general manager, the pas
senger traffic manager, the general pas
senger agent, the second vice president,
and two or three officials whose names we
1id not learn. We, are tired OF these offi-
cials looking over our office with super
'or air which seems to say: These dubs
should see the Tribune office In Chicago"
and passes having been withdrawn, we dc
not intend to stand 1t any longer.

The reason this lady was helped by

Trying on" Furniture.

When you go to buy a suit Of furni-
ture nowadays in one of our depart
ment stores you don't have to specu-
late as to how it will look in your room
nor whether it will fit in or not. AS
soon as the salesman sees that a par
tfcular suit has met your fancy he calls
for a porter or two and turns them
loose in one Of several rooms fitted up
around the main showroom, setting
them at work removing all the furni-
ture in it. Then the suit that you seem
to be hankering after Is placed in ap-
propriate positions in this room, and
you can see at glance just how the
bedroom or parlor or dining room will
look if you buy that particular suit.
There are a dozen Of these smaller
rooms around the main showroom, and
as each one is decorated in a different
manner it is easy to pick one out that
approximates the scheme of your room
at home. Like many modern ways of
selling goods it Is expensive in the be-
ginning, but it pays in the end, for this
plan of showing goods seldom fails Of
its intended effect.-New York Press.

THE INFINITE.
Beyond the Visible the Invisible, Be-
yond the Invisible the Unknown.

Beyond the Visible the Invisible, Be-
You'd the Invisible the Unknown.
In Victor Hugo's Intellectual Auto
biography" the great Frenchman
writes as follows of the infinite after
asking what vehicle shall be adopted
to cross the spaces of the universe:
1.-THE locomotive travels fifteen leagues
an hour The hurricane travels sixty
leagues an hour. The cannon ball
travels 700 leagues an hour. The To-
comotiye drags; the hurricane limps;
the cannon ball is tortoise. Let us
bestride a ray of light. This is a
mount 1900. times swifter than the
cannon ball, 100000 times swifter
than the hurricane and 1900, 900
times swifter than the locomotive. 1t
makes, as you know, 10000 leagues a
second.
Start. Light launches you from
the earth to the sun In eight minutes,
