CHAPTER VII.


The immediate result of the adj
venture and accident in the park, so
far as Lucille was concerned, was, OF
course, a violent headache!
She went straight to her room, and
sent down word by Susie to Mrs. Dali
ton that they were not to expect her
at luncheon. Then she threw her
self into chair, and tried to sleep
and rest, but it was impossible;
every incident of the morning rose
wildly before her-Harry Herne's
voice seemed to ring in her ears, and
she went over every little act OF de-
votion which he had performed
with what thoughtfulness he had sen
for her sunshade to shield her; how
patiently he had borne with her
GOODNESS and hauteur; how gently,
and again, how patiently, he had
tried to teach her to drive-and last,
but, ah, by no means least, how
nobly he had borne the insult and
outrage inflicted upon him by the
marquis!
Lucille walked round the stands in
reverie of admiration and delight
for some time, then a thought struck
her. A gardner had left his prun-
ing knife on one of the seats, and she
set TO work and cut large bouquet
of magnificent blossoms.
Then, when she had encircled the
masses of azalea and geraniums and
roses in ring of feathern maiden
hair, she stopped a footman and told
him to send her maid to her with her
hat and jacket.
In a few minutes Susie appeared,
and Lucille said:
Il am going for a stroll, Susie, and
l want you to go with me. have

Miss, for serving you. Why, there
isn't a man about the place who
wouldn't jump into the river if you
wished it,"
Especially if he could swim.

went up to the door to knock. A
minute afterwards she came after

Susie disappeared inside the cot
tage, but reappeared at the door the
next minute, her eyes the shape of
saucers, and her lips wide open.
''Oh. Miss! You never sawi" she
exclaimed, in hushed whisper.
"Such a lovely little room! Do come
and look!'
Susie threw open the door.

Cincinnati, O., April 12.-Women
OF this city are aghast over a con-

women's headgear, voiced in no un-

the Cincinnati conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church. The

show consideration for fellow wor-

A Chip of the Old Block.

An interesting little story comes
from Naples which would seem to
show that the passengers on the Ham
burg, the steamship that had the hon
or to carry the Roosevelt expedition,
did not lack entertainment.
1t appears that Kermit Roosevelt
was adding to his knowledge of hu-
man nature by sitting in a friendly
game of poker among passengers in
the smoking room. Familiar from
close association with the power of a
good bluff and confident in the family
luck, young Mr.. Roosevelt raked In
several fat pots in quick succession.
Not content, however, with winning
on BLUM. he felt impelled to add to

Idaho, will join the prohibition forces
In the fight against the rum shops in
Nez Perez county, when the campaign
begins to make the district part of the
arid zone. The Indian voters league
has organized its forces under the
direction of James tuart, district for
ester, and is instructing the reds in
the duties Of citizenship. The Nez
Perez treaty contains a clause for alb
solute prohibition, inserted by the
United tates government at the ur-
gent request of the chieftains, who
declared they would not otherwise ra-
tify the compact, as they had watch
ed the effect of rum on the reds.
Many of the Indians in the county
are educated and wealthy. They
own considerable farming land on the
reservation, and will soon receive
more than $4,000 from the gov
eminent, most of which will be de-
posted in the First Americans bank
at Fort Lapwai, Idaho, where Corbett
Lawyers, a full blooded Nez Perez
Indian, has full charge.

Now, it is one of the peculiaritie
of human nature, as shown in tn,

most good natured player has A;
strong dislike to being shown up a:
the victim of bluff Many a man in
the wild and woolly west has died
with his boots on just because of this
desire of the buffer to crow over the
bluffee.
anyway, this regularity of human
nature caused jangle in the nerves
of German who was a player in the
game, and he remarked in his native
tongue, apropos of things in general
and nothing IN particular, that in his
personal opinion the buffer was not
remarkable fer good breeding and
had an unnecessary amount of ego In
his cosmos-or words to that effect.
Young Mr.. Roosevelt, displaying
unexpected linguistic ability prompt
ly requested in German that the gen.
tleman say it again. The gentleman
did not repeat. but informed his OPP
ponent in English that he evidently
considered himself something better
than a German crown prince.
Of course, no free-born American
can be expected to submit to a COM
parison with even the son of the great
king Of one of the greatest nations on
earth; consequently, the blood of
young Mr.. Roosevelt boiled in his
veins. He laid his cards down and
he got himself up and he went for
that German there and then.
The cabled report says that it was

Roosevelt proved himself a "clever
boxer and cool and deliberate scrap

JOE'S AMBITION

Seventeen-year-old Admits He
Started Two Fires at His
Own Home.
LOCKED UP in THIRD

Six Families Placed in Danger
at Midnight by One
Blaze He Set.

The ambition of seventeen-year-old
Joseph Blast to become a fireman and
Y ear a real helmet and rubber coat
caused him twice to kindle a fire under
his own doorstep. at So Gordon street,
the last blaze being discovered in time
to prevent a big fire early today by a
pedestrian. Joseph was arrested today
and after telling Captain Christie, of
the Third precinct station. of his plans
for the future, including a full confess
sion. is now languishing in a cell.
Life for sometime past, it seems.
has been rather dull for Joe. To en-
liven the monotony and incidentally to
obtain experience in the business he
intended to follow. Joe started a
healthy young blaze under the step Of
the three-story double tenement where
he lives last Wednesday afternoon. 1t
was seer in its ineipient stages, how
ever, and que1led with a bucket of
water.
Realizing that the afternoon, when
pedestrians were passing aeng the
street. was not the right time for a
spectacular blaze, Joe waited until
shortly after midnight today for his
second attempt. When every other
member of the six families in the big
frame building was sleeping, he stole
down to the front steps and kindled a
second fire.
Then Joe ran back upstairs as fast
