Then on hand and iSpces lie started
for the shore. Blinded by sprays, the
planks half turning so that he could
only pause, struggling with rigid mus
cles for balance, Haryell crawled along
the foot wide planks. And with each
pause came new encouragement. Mar
garet would surely be gone. In a
panic OF haste he slipped and fought
his way, now half in the boiling water,
half on the Shiny rocks, now again on
the plankway, gaining toward his goal
foot by foot At last one final spring,
and he felt again the solid earth be-
meath him. Without thought Of his
dripping clothing he started on his
half mile run through the woods to the
bungalow.

On up the sandy road, his clothes
half dry with his rapid pace, then with
the great edge Of the summer moon
peering over the top Of the pines, he
perceived dim figure standing by the
roadside. The figure shrank back a lit
tie at the sight Of the man storming
up the road. Harvell passed.
"Margaret!' he cried.
"Yes," answered quietly the sweet,
clear voice that never failed to thrill
him.
Margaret, why do you go?"
Margaret, too surprised by his sudden
appearance to be startled by his knowl-
edge of her movements, made no reply.

"You have no right to speak that

voice.

treetops now. By it's light he could
see the look of pride with which Mar

"knoW you,'' replied Harvell miser-
ably-"nO, I know nothing, except
that I love you and that 1 can never
hope to marry you''
There was long pause. The sum-
mer night was very fair around them.
The girl before him seemed to Harvell
part Of the wonder Of the night.
"You think, them" said Margaret,
that I am too brainless to admire your
fine mind, your splendid physique?

Will you say yes, Margaret?'
"Not until have told YOU" answered
the low voice, that I was born and
bred in poverty in the mountains Of
Tennessee, that I am finely born only
as every American is finely born, and
am proud Of it."
The sound of stagecoach wheels came
up the road, but already the two
figures were far up the path that led
to the bungalow.

Wanted to Know Too Much.

There was a series of burglaries com
m1tted in the fashionable section Of
Baltimore. So anxious were the police
authorities to apprehend the culprits
that Instructions were issued to the
roundsmen to exercise extraordinary
vigilance during their tours OF inspec.
ton.
On one occasion just after midnight
an officer saw emerging noiselessly
from house in Eutaw place young
man, who hastily darted down the
street. The officer made after him US
rapidly as possible When he had
stopped the young man he said:
Didn't you come out Of the corner
house just now?'
The young fellow, though of quite a
respectable air, seemed i'll at ease. Il
did," he answered, with some confu-
sion.
DO you live i'll that house?" sternly
demanded the officer.

INCIDENTS IN
TIE POLICE COURT

There were two cases of witnesses
court session and there were two law
yers discounted thereby. The first case
was that of a bunch of ten Cinnamon,
up for gambling on New Years eve,
Charley Chillingworth defending. Pros
ecuting Attorney Andrade had two
witnesses to prove his case. the first
one telling good story but making
the date of the game he had seen on
the goth instead of the 31st. This little
slip got past everyone but Chilling
worth, who waved the witness off the
stand without cross-examination. When
the second witness was called, Chilling
worth said that he was prepared to adj
nit that his evidence would be the
same as that given by the main wit
ness.
accepted the admission and announced
that the case for the prosecution rested.
1.-THE defense also rests said Chill
lingworth, who moved that the prison
ers be discharged because there was
no evidence put in against them. An
drade rubbed his eyes and consulted
the records, but the slip of his witness
had settled it, leaving the judge moth
ing to do but turn the prisoners loose.
Andrade had his revenge later on,
when Harry Mossman produced an old
native to testify on behalf of Peter and
Francisco Neava, the Porto Ricans who
had tried to knife two natives in
day. The witness was supposed to say
that the prisoners had only been peace
fully drunk and had been beaten into
iellies by the two natives. Instead of
that he gave a highly finished pantomi-
mic exhibition of the prisoners trying
to dissect the natives with clasp
knives Mossman tried to suppress the
witness after the drift Of his testimony
began to show itself, but he was waved
back by the court and the witness told
to go on with his show. AS a result
of this testimony Mossman's clients will
spend the next thirty days on the reef.
The second case of profanity against
Eugene Duvauchelle did not go to trial,
a mol. pros. being entered by the pros
ecuting attorney.
Asai, who had turned himself loose
on the crockery and furniture of
neighbor in Kakaako on 4>ew Years
day and strewn the road with the frag-
ments, was fined $40 and costs. J. r.
Eaton paid five for assaulting Mrs.
Love and Haena's little fight cost him
a like amount. Sam Floyd, who had
looked upon the wine and not wisely
but too web, coughed up six and a
number of other cases went over.

at one of the most deserted points In

have made the fingers of many stray

Whether from the tally of the record

box Is gave it more running for it's

the new schedule box Is is located at

that the firemen will have the hoodoo

that the hoodoo will read backward

Of all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, chronic
kidney disease is the most fatal. In
fact, unless early and correct treatment
is applied, the weary patient seldom
survives.
Being fully aware of this, Lydia
E. Pinkham, early in her career, gave
exhaustive study to the subject, and in
producing her great remedy for
woman's ills i Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound-was careful to
see that it contained the correct combi-
nation of herbs which was sure to con-
troll that fatal disease, woman's kidney
troubles. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-

cially prepared for women, and thou

kidneys, and when a woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the

Convenient New De-
vices in Registry
Office.

| Some convenient and handsome new
furniture has been placed in the Reg
istry of Conveyances. 1t is designed
to save both the wear of record books
and the time of searchers of records.
Most conspicuous of the articles is a
quadruple book rack or cabinet. hav-
ing two sections facing on each of its
two opposite fronts. On either side,
below the sections, is a sloping desk
for examination of the books. The four
sections are fitted with shelves adjust
able for different thicknesses Of books.
Thus, as at present arranged, there
are % shelves on one side and "a on
the other. Brass rollers are provided
to pull the books over and push them
back again without friction destructive
of bindings. Sliding fronts with locks
cover the sections when not in use.
The cabinet is beautifully finished in
enamel varnish.
In the sections alphabetical index
books, arranged in periods of years
from the famous Land Commission
time, and other bound references are
deposited.
There is single cabinet of the same
style as the quadruple one, arranged
for thinner books, upon the counter.
Then, standing near the door, is a cabi-
net of six lockers for local firms that
have much to do with conveyancing.
Along the wall on the King street
side, the whole length Of the office, six
sections of spacious pigeon holes have
been built, having ten compartments to
