reached out after him, showed him
their wounds-and, in nameless dread,
he crawled out of his bed, shaking in
every joint.
The first report of the massacres
reached the editorial rooms. His CO.
workers talked subdued, in whispers.
Aladjev said nothing. He wrote
an editorial in his usual manner. He
said a few words of regret and
then he tried to show how unavoid-
able, how inevitable, how almost
necessary were these events. He
made use of a knavish trick. The
massacres were not, he argued, the
result of deliberate Indictment; no, on
the contrary, the massacres proved
how justified had been the cam
paign of Indictment. He was pleased
by the thought that he did not in
cite the riots.
He ate his dinner with relish and
was in good humor. He went to
the theater to see a French farce,
fingered at supper, and came home
late, little tired, but pleasantly agi-
tated. On his dressingn-table was the
oblong envelope; this time it had
wide black border
so you are mourning for the vic
Tins of the massacre!" he exclaimed,
sneeringly. He placed the letter with
out opening 1t under his pillow, and
Immediately fell asleep.
He awoke suddenly. He did not
know what had happened. Icy dread
was strangling him by the throat.
The black border of the letter stood
in front of him and gripped his chest
A terrible pain had made him
insensible. Soon he began to compre-
bend. Yes, that was it. Why had
he put the letter under his pillow? 1t
was the black border which had ter
rorized him. Suddenly he saw clearly.
! Those hateful letters were the dread
full shadows which tortured him. If
he could but get rid of them all would
be well, the shadows would disappear,
and his soul would find peace. He
arose from his bed and, without put
ting on any garment. he tiptoed into
his working room. The full moon
flooded the room with pale light. He
opened the drawer. There were the
letters. There were many, many of
them He took them out one by one,
read each, and threw 1t away. But the
more he threw away, the more re-
manned. Everything was Uttered with
them-the floor, the chairs, the couch,
the tables. He hurried in fear, for
these yellowed sheets whispered be-
hind his back-he was afraid to turn
around-they conspired against him.
They flew around like a flock of white
birds, and touched him with their
wings. He drove them away, but they
surrounded him in ever narrowing cir
cles, their number grew and grew.
The picture was no longer there. He
himself had removed it yesterday to
escape the everlasting reproach of
those mournful eyes. With a wild
cry he threw himself against the
black-bordered letter.
In the editorial rooms the night
force had heard the shrek. They
fastened into Aledjev's room. They
found him atop of a heap of letters,
his face distorted with horror A few
weak signs Of life remained in him
They laid him on the couch. Everyone
had picked up instinctively one of the
letters The solemn silence around
the dying man was broken by sub
dued whisper. AS they looked at the
letter each one pronounced In an un,
dertone the one word, "Scoundrel"

Monitor FaVOrS Athletics
In Catholic Schools

The Catholic Schools athletic league
has already secured the hearty approval
Of Archbishop Riordan and Bishop
O'Connell, together with that Of the
leading pastors OF the archdiocese Of
san Francisco. The sentiment Of the
Catholic public is likewise strongly in
favor OF the league. This sentiment is
reflected in an editorial in yesterdays
issue OF the Monitor. the official organ
OF the Catholic church in California
In part the Monitor SAYS;
We are told, by those who know
that one of the largest factors TO be
recl1Oned with in figuring UP the
progress and growth of our Catholic
schools during the last year and more
is the newly established interest in
athletics We believe it. When young
folks go to schooI-boys especially, al
though the girls. too. have had a part
in this athletic revival, if revival IL may
be called-when young folks go to
school they want more than books and
pencils. Nothing engages their fancy
more readily or more profitabiy than
contests of strength and speed and
attractions is the successfuI- school. The
best OF II I'll is that while the young
folks are being attracted and held
they are being benefited beyond COM
putatiOn-giVen strong bodies in which
to develop strong minds.
Here we have our Catholic Schools
athletic league, fostered by the most
reverend archbishop. and participated
