them to contemplate. Then she re.
turned to the drawing room, followed
by q full sized footman bearing tea.
She was too discreet woman, too
deeply versed In the sudden changes of
the human mind and heart, to say any
thing until one Of them should give her
a distinct lead. They were not shy
and awkward children. Perhaps she
reflected that the generation to which
they belonged is not one heavily handi-
capped by too subtle delicacy of
feeling.
Jack Meredith gave her the lead be-
fore long.
"Millicent," he said without a vestige
OF embarrassment, 'has consented to
be openly engaged now"
Lady Cantourne nodded compre.
hensiyely.
II think she is very WISE" she said.
81 know she is very wise," she added,
turning and laying her hand on Jacks
arm. The two phrases had quite diff
ferent meaning "She will have good
husband"
so you can tell everybody now"
chimed in Millicent In her silvery way.
Lady Cantourne was not very COM
municatiye during that refined little
tea n trois, but she listened smilingly
to Jacks optimistic views and NIL
licent's somewhat valueless comments.
81 am certain" said Millicent, at
length boldly attacking the question
that was In all their minds, that Sir
John will be all right now. OF course,
1t is only natural that he should not
like Jack toto get engaged yet. Es-
pecially before, when 1t would have
made a difference to him In money, !
mean. But now that Jack Is indie
pendent--you know. auntie, that Jack
Is richer than Sir John"
Lady Cantourne was rather thought
full at that moment. She could not
help coming back and back to Sir John.
AOf course" she said to Jack, I'VE
must let your father know at once.
The news must not reach him from an
outside source"
81 will write and tell him." said Jack
quietly.
Even funerals and lovers must bow
to mealtimes, and Jack Meredith was
not the man to outstay his welcome.
He saw Lady Cantourne glance at the
clock. Clever as she was, she could
not do it without being seen by him.
So he took his leave. and Millicent
went to the head of the stairs with
him.

There are some places in the woriu
where curse seems to Droou ~ 'ne

Perhaps these places are accursea ny
the deeds that have been done there.
Who can tell? ~
Could the trees-the two gigantic
elms that stood by the rivers edge
could these have spoken, they might
perhaps have told the tale or TINS lt'ie

the founder of the hamlet was Id tne
habit of saying, no one knows what Is
going on.
All went well with the retreating
column until they were almost IN slgnt
of Msala, when the dotilla was ATTACKED
by no less than three hippopotamuses.
One canoe was sunk and four others
were so badly damaged that they could
not be kept afioat with their proper
complement of men. There was MOTH
ing for 1t but to establish camp at
Msala and wait there until the builders
had repaired the damaged canoes.
The walls of Durnovo's house were
still standing, and here Guy DISCARD
established himself with as much COM
fort as circumstances allowed. He
caused temporary roof of palm leaves
to be laid on the charred beams, and
within the principal room, the very
room where the three organizers-of the
great simiacine scheme had first laid
their plans, lie set up his simple camp
furniture.
Oscard was too great traveller, too
experienced a wanderer, to be put out
of temper by this enforced rest. The
men had worked very well hitherto.
1t had, in its way, been great feat
of generalship, this leading through
wild country of men unprepared for
travel, scantily provisioned, disorgan-
lied by recent events. No accident had
happened, no serious delay had been
incurred, although the rate Of progress
had necessarily been very slow. Near
" six weeks had elapsed since Oscard
with his little following had turned
their backs forever on the simiacine
plateau. But now the period Of acute
danger had passed away. They had
almost reached civilization. Discard
was content.

Three ways are used by farmers
for curing and preparing their to-
bacco for the market; namely sun
cured, air cured and hue cured.
The old and cheap way is called air
cured; the later discovery and i'm
proved way is called fue cured.
In fue curing the tobacco is taken
from the fields and racked in barns
especially built to retain heat and
there subjected to continuous high
temperature, produced by the direct
heat of flame heated fues, which
brings out in the tobacco that

expert roasting develops in green
coffee. These similar processes give
to both tobacco and coffee the cheer

ularizes their use.

much on the curing process and the
kind of soil that produces it, as ex-
pert tests prove that this fue cured

STRIKE MAY BE AVERTED.
Conference This Evening When Condi-
tions Will BE Discussed.

1t is the belief of the conservative labor
leaders of this city that when the commit
tee of the building trades unions meet this
evening with a committee of the two Mas
ter Builders Associations the threatened
strike of those engaged in the constructive
trades will be averted. The sentiment of
the business men of the District that such
d tie-up would prove to be direct calam-
ity to this community and cause the loss
The Star recently, has found a responsive
echo in the minds of the thinking men of
the labor bodies, it is said. Hence at the
conference scheduled for this evening it is
believed the wiser counsels will prevail and
the troubled waters will be Gained.
The fact that the Trades Unionist, the Of
fetal organ of the Central Labor Union, in
a leading editorial in it's current issue
counsels harmony and deplores the talked
of general strike of tie building trades, is
regarded as expression of the sentiments
of workingmen of the non-eXplosive order
1t is pointed out that strike at this time
will mean decided loss to the mechanics
who are compelled to rely upon their daily
toll to support their dependent ones, and
especially following the idle winter season
and when prosperous building season is
about to open.
The conference this evening will be held
at o'clock in the Master Builders Hall,
14th and G streets, and 1t is believed the
conferees will decide to refer the matter in
controversy between the master and jour-
neymen plumbers back to the board of ar
bitration for a final decision as to the dis
puted section of the award.

ARRESTED IN NEW YORK.
Maid Formerly Employed Here Ac-
cused of Theft

Margaret Tierney, a maid who has been
employed by many prominent and infiuen-
tial persons in this city and New York, was
in the Yorkville police court, New York
city, yesterday charged by Miss Amy Sa-
vim with the larceny of an expensive muff
and boa, her arrest having been brought
about by a decoy letter which, lured her to
express office. She was held in $1,000
security for further hearing. According
to press dispatches from New York, the
young woman is alleged to have been en-
ployed at the houses of Admiral Dewey,
United States Senator Kean and Assistant
District Attorney Pinchot in this city prior
to a year ago.
She left this city in July last, going to
Elberon, N. j.. where she was employed in
the family of Isidor Straus. Later she
worked at Hampstead, l.. l., for Mrs. w.
King. Then she went to Morristown, n. j.,
as a maid in the family of b. o. Chisholm.
Detectives who appeared as witnesses in
the case yesterday placed the amount Of
her alleged populations at about $1,000.
When Miss Tierney left Morrstown her
trunk went astray and it was through the
temporary loss of her trunk that the de-
tectives succeeded in locating her and ar
resting her.
