 Saturday there were 12 arrests made for alleged violations of the prohibition law. A majority of the tigers were ne- groes. Yesterday afternoon while every thing was quiet and peaceable, Officers Little, Jones and Taylor made a round- up of a number of suspicious places and six arrests were made. Beer and whisky were taken from every place where the officers made an arrest.
 The higher police officials state that every effort is being made to suppress the much-complained-of tigers, three men having been detailed to do nothing but ferret out the offenders of the prohibition law.

Moore and Johnson Say That Social Equality Between White and Black Miners as Established Under Fairley's Leadership Is Direct Insult to South
 ern Traditions.

between white and black miners is di- rect insult to our southern traditions, and under Fairley's leadership it seems the limit has been reached.
 Foreign agitators, not content are now organizing white women and black wom- en into unions called the Woman's Aux Hilary The effect of this is certain to result in degradation of our citizenship and in race riots.
 The question arises, just how much damage to life, property and morals this Agitator Farley and his associates have a right to inflict on this community be- fore the dead line is reached. It surely seems that we are short on law or man. hood, if not both.

 WORK ON DEFENSE

New York, August 23-A number of conferences were held today by the law yers engaged to defend Capt. Peter c. Hains, Jr., and his brother Thornton, to decide on a plan of defense,
 After interviewing a number of pros pective witnesses, John F. Mcintyre an- nounced that he was prepared to prove that the visit of the two brothers to the Bayside Yacht club had not had the mur- der of William E. Annis as its object.
 He had several witnesses. he declared. who could testify that Thornton Hains had entered into negotiations to purchase land at Bayside several weeks before the tragedy, and he would establish the fact that the Hains brothers had gone to Bay side to examine the estate offered them and not to shoot Annis.

 The new system of sanitary and storm sewers which the city will in- stall will be very extensive, covering much territory, and 1t is estimated that 1t will take at least two years to complete It's construction. As soon as the preliminary work has been put in shape, which will require but a short time, the city will proceed with the construction which will be carried for ward as rapidly as possible.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

1t is not easy for heart that thinks
no evil, though it may not be ignorant
Of it to realize the driving force of the
hot passions of men, and at first Chris
label could hardly believe that which
had ,befallen her. It. seemed so alb
surdly, so incredibly impossible that
she should be shut up prisoner in
private house where only short
time before she had been on intimate
terms with its inmates. She had read
of such happenings, but with a remote
interest; they belonged, she imagined,
to the world of fiction, of romance.
She had never pictured herself in such
a situation. and found it difficult to
believe in it's reality; but as day after
day dragged YEARLY past her soul
grew faint within her.
In these long days of misery she
thought of many things: of her lover
what he was doing, what thinking?
of her brother-how could he sus-
pect her plight?-of Mary Sisterson,
and of the strange road she had trav-
eled since she had gone to Hans
Square; why was it that Mary made
no sign?-of Dmitri; did he suppose
that his savage wooing could ever
make her submit to him? i..
Yet her position seemed hopeless.
She thought of escape but the room
in which she was confined was high
above the ground. and to descend
from it by the wall impossible. Even
if she did escape from the house,
whittier could she go? Her courage
did not desert her, but she grew UNI
utterably wretched and depressed.
The woman who had waited upon
her was machine; as they could not
exchange a word it was useless to at
tempt to appeal to her, to do anything
with her at all. But to Christabel's
unspeakable surprise and joy it was
she who one afternoon put into her
hand a letter, the mere sight Of the
writing on which filled her with rap
ture. and made her at once prisoner
of hope.
1t was from Norman Forde.

CHAPTER XVIII.
A Journey Of Surprise.

In making for Sulja Norman Forde
had been advised by the tourist
agency, considering the disturbed
state of Russia, to go by rail across
Central Europe to Constantinople, and
thence by sea to Odessa: it would be
easier, he was told, to go inland from
that port to his destination than to
attempt to reach it from the Austrian
frontier, the more direct way. Though
this meant delay, at which he could
not but fret, he accepted and acted
upon this counsel of prudence. In the
end it was we'll that he took this
roundabout route, though not for the
reason that considerations of prudence
dictated it.
The splendid carriages Of the Com.
pagnie Internationale that run from
Ostend 10 Constantinople without
change were crowded with that inter-
esting miscellany of Continental trav-
elers always to be seen towards the
end of summer and the beginning of
autumn; but Norman. absorbed in far
more interesting thoughts, conjectures
and speculations about Christabel,
paid scant attention to his fellow pas
sengers.
1t was merely accident that at din
ner, on the second day of his journey,
he had to share table with another
man, with whom politeness demanded
an exchange of the vague and casual
remarks customary on such an occa-
sion, that led to the beginning of an
acquaintanceship that took him some

peared, were proceeding to CONSTANT
nople, to which Norman confessed, in
reply to an inquiry, that he was max.

ever, knew the Turkish capital we'll
and offered his services, and this led
Norman to say that he would stop
there no longer than he could help, as
he was going on at the first opportu.
nifty to Odessa; he referred to the
troubles in Russia, Of which he said
he had read in the papers, and hoped
they might not hinder or prevent him
from landing. After dinner they met
! in the smoking compartment, talked
again, and this time not only e.
changed views but cards, when with
