CHAPTER XYXIV.
The Mysterious MademoiseIIe.

The Mysterious MademOfselle.
The future, nay. the very life. of Sam
uel Statham depended, according to his
own admission TO his secretary. upon the
honor Of Maud Petrovitch.
The position was to say the least,
strangely incongruous Here was man
whose power and wealth were world
famous, a man whom kings and princes
sought to conciliate and load with honors.
which he steadfastly refused to accept,
dependent for his life upon woman,
little more than a child
Charlie Rolfe had thought over his mas
ter's strange. enigmatical words many
times. Maud-his Maud. whom he loved
so dearly, and who had so suddenly and
mysteriously gone out Of his life-was to
be sacrificed. Why? What did old Sam
mean when he uttered those words. each
of which had burned indelihly into his
soul.
You have promised to save me; you
have sworn to assist me. and the sacri-
fee is Imperative Statham had said. 1T
is her honor-or my DEATH"
Each time he entered the grim portals
of the silent house in Park lane those
fateful words required TO him. The house
OF mystery seemed dark and chilly, even
on those sunny days of early September
and old Levi seemed more sphinx-Iike
and solemn. A dozen times had he been
on the point OF referring again TO the
matter. but each time he had refrained

changed. He was less anxious and far
more bright and hopeful The discovery

France as In England.
Just before II o'clock, as he was issuing
from the fine offices of the firm into the
street, he stumbled against rather short
but well-dressed girl of about twenty
four. He raised his hat and in English
asked her pardon, whereupon, with a
light laugh, she replied In the same
tongue:
'oh, really. no apology is needed. Mr..
Roife."
He glanced at her inquiringly
IL really haven't the pleasure OF yoIr
name.' he said, still upon the doorstep
or the office. At all events, she was
rather good-looking and well bred. even
II her stature was a trifie diminutive
Her gown was in excellent taste, too.
MY name really doesn't natter she
laughed. Il know you quite we'll You

secretary
Then. in an instant. the truth flashed
across his mind. This girl must be one

agents, controlled and paid from the
Office in Old Broad street.
You wish to speak TO me, eh?' he
asked. in a quick, businesslike way.

''AItars OF Sacrifice" by NJ NJ Teagar.
is long poem by a Confederate veteran
OF the civil war dedicated 10 the memory
of the brave. heroic spirits who gave
their lives in sacrifice upon the altar OF
their country. and their survivors. the
mothers. wives. and daughters. whose pa
tient fortitude and heroic endurance gave
inspiration 70 patriotic devotion: and TO
the Sons and Daughters Of the COnfed-
eracy. whose lives are devoted 10 the vim
dicatiOn OF their cause as weighed in the
scales OF justice"
The poem is very long and cast in clas-
steal form. With something Ike so stan
zas. there is bound TO be some little un-
evenness here and there. but on the whole
the poem shows considerable ability and
is marked by no little skill Throughout,
it breathes spirit Of patriotism and res
ignation, and II conveys vividIy some
graphic pictures Of the cruelty OF war.
But more than all IS the spirit OF regret
and sorrow that WHITES the poem. Stan
zas such as this:
The dead-the dead-dear sunny Southland's dead
Their bones lie stTewn on mountain. HILL and
PLAIN;
Where summer skies their pcarly deTdrors she'd.
Ard natures smile and peaceful quiet reign.
Far IN the depth Of forests solitude
In touery vale-Cn rugged uouuisin-steep-
On fields Of fame. with crimson stain believed.
In silent graves orr patriot fathers sleep
All OF the stanzas are cast in the same
form. which. Of course. grows q trtfie mo-
notonous. but, after ALL il is the spirit
rather than the body that moves the
reader in Affairs Of Sacrifice" and the
poem leads one Up to the acceptance oi

"Irish In the American RevoIution., y

"Irish In the American Revelation"
Mr. James Ealtigan has written mas
sive work entitled The Irish in the
American Revolution which includes
also a history of their early influence in
the color'es The book is dedicated ITO
the AnciC IT Order Of Hibernians in Amer
lea, whose members have been foremost
in preserving the spirit Of Irish national
ity in this country for the past seventy
five years, and whose untiring work in
the present day Is bound 70 make their
order the great Irish organization Of the
future-upon whose platform will stand
the united children of the Gaelic race
The author makes no pretensions in his
work to have written any ne~ history.
He has believed that a disposition exists
upon the part of many Of the modern his
torians. to ignore the achievements Of the
Irish people in the foundation OF this re-
public. and he has sought merely TO res
urrect all he could Of the true part the
Irish have played and 20 restore II in its
proper place among the records of the
nation OF course, to do fIIl justice TO
such subject would req lire a work
which should include a section for every
State in the Union. for in every portion
Of the republic. as President Roosevelt
truly says the Irish people have proved
themselves a masterful race Of rugged
character-a race the qualities OF whose
womanhOod have become proverbial. while
its men have the elemental. the indis-
pensable virtue OF working hard in times
Of peace and fighting hard in times Of
war"
Mr.. Haltigan takes up his history prior
20 the Revolution. and takes as his text
hat well-known verse, written by an
Irishman:
Westward the course Of empire takes its way:
The hrst four acts already past
fith shall close the drama Of the day
Times noblest offspring is the Last
Here you shall read Of the part taken
BY the Irish in the early days OF New
England. Virginia. the CarOlinas. Georgia
Delaware. and other sections of the coun-
try. One chapter is devoted 70 the Con-
tinental Congress and the men Of Irish
race who took part IN IT, There were
eleven Irish-American members One
chapter is devoted 70 the Irish ancestry
Of President Roosevelt and the biogra-
phies OF many prominent Americans Of
Irish ancestry are given. Later in the
{
ties Of the Revolution and the prominent
part taken in them by Irish soldiers.
Sometimes the rolls OF certain regiments
that took prominent part IN the battles
OF the Revolutionary war are given. and
sure enough. the names OF Kelly and
Burke and Shea are 70 be found promi-
nently on every one of them
The whole trend OF the book shows that
Irishmen. both as commanding officers
and fighting solders-aIIuded 10 as the
line Of Ireland by Light Horse" Harry
Lee-were among the most active partici-
pants in the struggle. and. as the author
says, the Irishmen Of the present day
