remorse that she had ordered the ex-

that city would be found after death

STRANGE NEWS.

OMN HE Earl of Hawcastle was near
ly at the end of his financial
rope. And yet TO look at him
as he entered upon the terrace
from the lemon grove no one would
have thought that care in the world
possessed him.
Added to the natural calm demeanor
of the Englishman of station was a
certain self possession gained by years
of standing ON the brink OF events,
and, while this brilliant morning his
cares had hung even a little more
heavily upon him than was his desire
yet he gave no outward hint of any
troubles that beset him.
He.was well preserved man OF fif-
ty-six, with close cropped iron gray
hair and straight cut military mus
tache that hid certain cruel lines In
his mouth and softened the severe
lineaments. He, carried himself with
an erectness that bespoke pride In
race, II not In deeds OF his own. He
was distinguished with that curious
individuality that causes those I'm the
street to nudge one another and ask
In whispers who another may be, and
