CHAPTER XVI.
Who Killed This Woman1

Bamberton was taking grim holiday.
Bamberton the sleepy-with nothing
to stir II from one dreary years end to
the other, treading its dull, respecta-
BILE round, knowing exactly who mar
ried who and how John This, or John
That, got on with their respective
wives, with the certainty of the dull
little clock in the Chatter Arms-had
suddenly awakened to find itself no
torious and. its name in big print, in,
the great London papers.
Moreover, had not Bamberton the
newly-awakened already had pictures
OF It's High street with an impossible
man, in smock-frock, leaning on a
species OF clothes-prop. in the fore
ground) In the illustrated and evening
journals? Had not Bamberton already
been photographed, interviewed,
stared at, and made public in hun
dred different ways?
Now. too. had come the day Of the
inquest; and impossible rumors were
already In the air concerning that
same inquest, and the marvellous
things which were to be said and done
thereat. Scarcely to be wondered at.
therefore, is 1t that Bamberton should
be taking grim holiday, and should be
fiocking to the place where twelve
lucky members Of its male community
had been summoned to give Judgment
concerning the doing to death Of poor
Patience Miller.
At a period long since forgotten
some charitable inhabitant, or other
person interested in the welfare of the
male and female youth Of Beinberton,
had had dreams of an institute; and.
with that laudable design In view,
had pounced upon the only unoccupied
spacious building in the locality and
mad endeayored TO transform 1t into
hall OF semi-dazzling light. The at
tempt had been failure; and the
building-which was no other than
the old mill, which stood on the out
skirts of the wood had long since
fallen into greater decay than before.
But this place had again come be.
fore the public notice by reason Of the
| fact that the body of the murdered
girl had been carried there after It's
discovery. Srs at that place the In.
uuest was to be held. The body had
been put In an upper room, species
of loft; the inquest was to be held in

Late that night Bamberton was
stirred to its depths again by the news
that Mr.. Dandy Chatter was in close
custody in the lookup, with special
draft OF constables to keep watch
over him.

gust Passenger Never Tires.
When Emperor William travels by
train in Germany he insists that his
train shall go to it's destination with
out stopping. The time of departure 10
fixed in such way that his nights
rest Is not interfered with, the start
being made either in the morning or
shortly before his usual bedtime. His
special train is fitted up so comforta-
bly,, according to his own tastes, that
he feels quite at home in it. On en-
tering 1t, should it be early in the day
he goes to his study and sits at his
writing table, where the rays OF an
electric lamp fall on beautifully
framed photograph of the empress and
their children.
He first hears reports from the Vari-
Gus ministers. then signs documents
looks through the newspapers and de-
votes a period to reading. Then ne
summons a secretary and dispatches
letters in several languages to other
monarchs or personal friends. he
often consumes several hours. Though
the sentences are rapidly spoken, cor
rections are never necessary. The en-
peror has the gift Of concentrating all
his faculties on the subject In hand
and he expresses himself as precisely
in the foreign languages as In his
mother tongue. The meals are taken
at the usual time and the dinner may
not last more than an hour. After
dinner the emperor assemblies MS
suite for an unconstrained chat. &C
companied by beer and cigars.

months Of 33.0l3,sl7.s33. These fig
ures are supplied by the bureau OF
statistics Of the department OF COM
merce and labor. which in a bulletin
says In part:
The August figures OF both i'm.
ports and exports exceeded those Of
any preceding August in the history Of
our commerce. August imports for
the first time crossed the 500, ,000. 900
line. The imports have exceeded
100000. 900 in practically every month
OF the last year, but August is usually
light month for imports and thus
the record Of more than 500, ,OOO. 900
for the month of August is made for
the first time in the figures OF the
month just ended. which shows i'm.
ports OF s105. 5.5ss,60 against ss6 600.

against sllS.000,000 in August, 1905,
and s1Os. .o0o. 900 in August. 1901.
The growth of commerce is distrib-
uted through large class OF articles.
Meat and dairy products exported
amounted to sl6.76s, 067 against S14,-
2le,21S in August OF last year and
sI,219,5lS in August, 1904. This
growth in the expectation of meat is
shown in nearly all articles except
canned beef. which shows a marked
decline compared with the correspond
ing months of earlier years. Other
figures exceed those of the correspond.
