little oficer. with wide-apart blue eys- and q fair moustache, exerted himseII to entertain his aunt's guest. He looked at the helress with criticai attention. She was decidly good lookisn. and had even an air Of dis- tinction now that she was set on by self-confidence and smart clothes. but. although totally unaffected. she seemas to be tired and out of spirits. He wondered if she realized. If she knew. that 1t was he who had set her hfs moving-he, Freddy Tudor. who had discovered her wealth to an amazed and incredulous community.
 Yes, Hester was aware that she was dull; they talked of Shalesmoor and the Colsons. and then she really could not think of any other topic. During gaps In the conversation. the fountain sounded like falling rain; she could see the palms through the open door, and the stars shining own into the court yard. It was all so strange. so foreign and so enchanting.
 After supper, coffee and cigarettes were served in the patio. Mrs. Tudor kept Dona Luisa in countenance, and. to Hester's amazement, smoked three cigarettes; and shortly afterwards the travellers retired.

I towns. castles. bridges. and ,aqueducts --the farther they journeyed south, tke
 more interesting the scene became. At the anfreauent stations were groups of merry; dark girls. with red | flowers in their hair; stout. 1eisurely Moors. wrinkied beggars. guardias civiles and. alas, lean and furnishing dogs, among whom she distributed her lunch. Sometimes for many miles, no human figure was to be seen save a woman holding a flag at a crossing, or child herding goats. Towards sundown they passed into the delicious land of, orange-groves and white acacias. The air was laden with their fragrance, and Mrs. Tudor began to rouse herself from her siesta. peevishly protesting that she had been awake all the time, and merely resting her eyes"
 How dark the people arer re- marF Hester as they rolled out of a station; their faces seem to be of an Eastern. type"
 And. pray, why not?" said her com panfon. Do you not know that the Moors were eight hundred years In Spain. Dear me, wish they were here now." she grumbled; they under stood good roads, and irrigation, and prosperity. After all, 1t is a country for an Oriental nation, and there Is good deal of the East in it still. I dare say there are few of the old families, especially round .Cordova, without a touch of Moorish blood
 Really" exclaimed Hester. How much I should like to see them!"
 No doubt your wish will be grati- fed" said Mrs. Tudor. "Heavensi what a journey this is! Every time make 1t declare that 1t is positively for the last time"
 ITO me it hasSaIl been delightful ,' said Hester, with enthusiasm. fI could spend days gazing out of the carriage window-it Is all so strange and so interesting. Oh, do look at that little boy driving his pigs with a great bough of orange bfossoml"
 E Yes, orange blossom is cheap here --and so fis sentimenti You are like a child. and am a. blasee old woman. We'll, thank goodness. we have only two more stations to Cordova," and once more the old lady closed her eyes and indulged in forty winks.
 Hester's mind was charged with romantic memories; lsleanings from history and guide-books filled her imagination with brilliant pictures of Cordova. the capital of the Moors. the Mecca of the west. the home of Ro- mans and visigoths. Her reverie was diturbed by flashing lights and the ex- pectation of mosques and palaces was brought down 70 the reality of a com monplace railway station, with porters. barrows. and trucks Here Mrs. Tudor was received by dignified servant in livery, who assisted her stiff- limbs to the platform, and then preceded her to where fine equipage was in wait ing.

TO SUPREME COURT
COUNTY HIHGH SCHOOL INVOLVED
 IN DECISION.
Judge of Probate and Treasurer of Lawrence County EnjOined From Paying Appropriation for
 Building of School.

Courtland, Oct. 6.-(Special. )-The case of H. D. Bynum ct als vs. J. c. KuTnpe, judge of probate, ct al, has been appealed to the Supreme Court.
 This Ia a case of more than pass ing interest as 1t Involves the ques- ton as to whether or not the Court of County Commissioners can make an appropriation out of the general fund of the county for the purpose of aid- ing in the building of the high schools, provided for by the last Legislature The Commissioners Court, or Board of Revenue of Lawrence county. at the August terms made an appropriation of $2,000 out of the general fund of the county to aid in the construction of theshigh schoollto be located at Moul- ton, in this county. H. D. Bynum and other taxpayers of the county filed a bill in the Chancery Court alleging that this appropriation was ultra wires, illegal and void, and prayed for writ of injunction restraining J. c. Kumpe as probate judge from issuing the warrant for the amount appropria- ted and restraining and enjoining Ar thur Henderson, as county treasurer from paying such warrant.
 The application for injunction was set down for hearing before Chancel- Tor W. H. Simpson. at Decatur, and hearing all of the parties. he ordered the writ of injunction issued, upon the compIainants giving bond in the sum of $500. From this order Judge Kumpe and Treasurer Henderson have appealed and the matter will be heard by the Supreme Court this winter. The case is exciting considerable interest as the question Is novel one. never having been before construed by the higher courts of this State.
 Lydia Davis, a colored woman. liv- ing near this town, had her house and contents, including three bales of cot ton. destroyed by fire last night. She was away from home and one of her srandsons built a fire in the stove and ignited the cotton. Seeing what he had done and being unable to put out the fire, the boy, who was about nine years of age. ran away. When the owners reached home, 1t was al-. most entirely consumed and it was thought that the boy was burned in 1t, but he showed up after while. The loss of the contents of the house falls heavily on the negro woman, as she was a hard worker, and everything she had in the house was destroyed.

In the second round I wal loped him all over the ring. The third round was short and Slade was down and out.

CHAPTER xxITI COrdi0vM


 At dawn, Mrs. Tudor and her com panion left Madrid for Cordova, the city of the Moors. It was a long jour- ney south; by gradual degrees the barren plains of La Mancha gave place to the fertile province of Andalusia. Hester (eager and impressionable travelier) sat motionless in window, gazing on the scenery, whilst the older woman--who knew the route by heart s~-read Or, though she denied the fact. slept.
 Here indeed was Span, Hester said to herself. Spain--his country. Natu- rally, everything was his; Madrid, the palce, the pictures, the armory! Yes and all these sweeping stretches of green crops. olive groves and fields of beans to boot.)
 How Eastern 1t seemed, too; the dusty cactus hedges which lined the railway. the fioclxs of lean. dark sheep, so unlike English sheep. the goats al- So in droves, the shepherd, with his sombrero and straw shoes. Every mile brought some novelty to her observant and delighted eyes: old
