aloof from her cries, seeing that

Yet she cried out increasingly in her
anger and fear, "To me, men OF Court

But the people only shr~eged their
shoulders even when they heard-as
did the guards and the gentlemen-in-
waiting, the underlings and the very
porters at the palace gates. For they
said, "They are strange folk, these
CORTLAND princes and princesses OF
ours, with their marriages and giving
in marriage. They can neither wed
nor bed like other people, but must be
taken by force. Well, happily it is no
business Of ours!"
Then at the stair foot she sank
down by the sundial, almost fainting
with the sudden alarm and fear, crying
for the last time and yet more pierre

BACON COMES A CHOPPER,
He Was Following the President
on a Horseback Ride.

WASHINGTON, January 10.-Assistant
Secretary of State Robert Bacon, for
merly OF the firm Of j. p. Morgan g. Co
was invited by the President on Sunday
to AXE n ride with him. Both had good
mounts, and after a dash over the beau-
tiful roads of Rock Creek Park. they
turned into the open country. 1t Is the
Presidents habit to turn into ravines
and through woods, jumping his horse
over fallen trees, rocks, and occasionally
a fence or two.
They were cantering along when, In
making a sharp turn, Mr.. Bacon's horse
bolted and threw him. The President
laughed. and Mr.. Bacon, although quite
badly hurt. gritted his teeth. and. steady
ing his horse for an instant, vaulted back
into the saddle.
The President chaffed Mr.. Bacon con
siderably about having forgotten how to
ride, and suggested a blackboard or a
coupe as perhaps moro suitable to M:.
Bacon's style of riding.
Returning to the city. they left their
horses In charge of the grooms Mt the
outskirts and were driven to the White
House in tho Presidents carriage. When
Mr.. Bacon reached home his injured leg
was paining him SO much that q. ply
stefan was sent for. Ha could not leave
his room until late Monday afternoon,
when he was driven to the White House.
He limped as he left the carriage. and
the President was much concerned until
he was assured that the injury was
slight, and hat Mr.. Bacon was suffering
only from soreness.

No referee was decided upon at the

Britt and Cotfroth have already de-
cided upon their plans. Coffroth said in
regard to their future movements: About
Friday OF this week Britt and myself will
go to Byron Springs. Our intention Is 10

Tonopah. Britt will select his training
quarters, and we will then return to San

Cans will have about two weeks on the
road. but will thereafter return immedi-
ate.y TO Nevada In order to start his

ion that Britt will meet with n defeat,
there is no g%ainsaying that 1t Will be a

BIG RACE TONIGHT.
Leweck to Skate Backwards
AGAINST Brent.

A crowd almost equaling that or the
regular Friday night proportions jour
neyed to the big skating rink last night
to see and pass on the ability of the
great Leweck as q marvel on roller
skates. Few left the building, and all
were greatly pleased. It was unani-
mously declared that his performance
was one of the cleverest ever seen here
on roller skates.
The crowd was kept In n continual
roar of laughter as Leweck came on inn
%personating n beginner, and when ne
wound up his turn by hurdling chairs.
tables, and other things, he literally
brought down the house.
Tonight Leweck will not only repeat
this performance, but will race John
Brent a mile. skating backwards. allow
ing Brent to skate forwards. He has
posted a forfeit that he can beat the local
favorlte. The contest will be distinctly
novel. A preliminary race between sun
N.Y. Hughes, OF Petersburg, and little
Alex Taylor will prove a good one, The
new pictures will be shown, and the at
fractions for the night promise to be the
most interesting ever got together at the
big rink.
