Filipino Justice.

Justice tempered by mercy Is a
praiseworthy thing. But this story, re-
lated by an ex-supervisor of education
in the Philippines, goes to prove that
common sense is quite as desirable an
accompaniment of the justice dis
pensed by the local magistrate of our
island possessions. This is the tale:
came home one day just in time to
see a thief climbing out the window
with the better part of my wardrobe.
I gave chase so earnestly that the thief
finally dropped the clothes in the street
and disappeared. AS l gathered up my
belongings a native policeman came
along and insisted on arresting me. He
took me before a Filipino Judge, where
told my story very plainly and en-
phatically.
When l had finished, the judge said,
"You are dismissed, but you may leave
the clothes here"
"But why?' I insisted, angrily.
Because" said he, with sage delib-
Grafton, how can tell that you speak
the truth? When the thief comes back
to identify these clothes as the ones he
stole, you may have them"

Dido helped YOU to do so and druggeC

1T would seem that Dido has a great
deal to do with these matters" said
Etwald, looking up to the roof.
She has everything to do with them
She will be brought against you as a
witness"
Indeed, Then it appears that I am
to be arrested"
Il can answer that" broke in Arkel,
amazed at the possession of the
man. Il have here warrant to arrest
you for stealing the body of Maurice
Aylmer."
How can you prove that I did so?"
he demanded.

'Battersea!" repeated the doctor, and
for the first time he frowned.
Yes. He saw you place the body in
the brougham, with the assistance of
Dido, He followed you to Deanmin-
ster, and saw you take the body into
your house"
"Oh, then" said Etwald. turning to-
wards Jen, Il am not to be accused of
the murder"
Later on, my friend CAIN" said the
Major, grimly. you will have quite
enough to do to save your neck from
the halter"
Il am afraid so, indeed, Major;
therefore, 1 must have assistance.
There is nothing like being provided
in time with counsel for the defence;
therefore, l must ask Mr.. David Sarby
to defend me from these absurd
charges"

pale cheeks Il defend you'll"
"Assuredly," replied Etwald, fixing
a piercing glance on the young man.
DO you refuse?"
"Of course he does" cried Jen,
wrathfully.
David raised his head and looked at
the Major, at the doctor, at the In
spector.
NO" said he, in a firm voice to all
three, Il accept. shall defend MAY

LUNCHES AT ONE CENT EACH.

They Are Fed to HaIf-Fed Chill
dren Who Would Resent Charity.
A heaping portion of Indian pudding
with milk and two crackers was the
menu for the 1-cent lunch served at the
Winthrop School yesterday, and as
long as the service proves as success
| full as it has in the past the lunches
| will be continued at 10:3 80 each morn
| ing, so that none of the little children
who come to school with appetites
half-satisfed need go home famished
The high cost of living which has
shaved down the breakfasts at home
| almost to minimum operates to send
seme children to school with INSULT
cient nourishment to do justice to
| themselves in their work, the Boston
Post says.
At the Winthrop School it was de-
cjded that any plan that seemed to in
clude charity would prove failure, as
children are the quickest persons to
form class barriers and look down ON
their playmates who may not be able
to have food enough at home.
Miss Emmeline F. Torrey, teacher
of domestic science, believes that she
has solved the problem in the 1-cent
lunches served each morning. If cost
of preparation and service were added
it would be impossible to make the
meal otherwise than charitable, so
Miss Torrey has a class of eighteen
girls, ranging in age from 10 to 13,
prepare the dishes and serve them.
Thus the cent that the children pay
covers the entire cost.
The cup of pudding and crackers,
together with the milk, which was
served yesterday to each hungry pu-
pill had enough nutriment in it to
equal nearly three large slices of bread,
with butter. The quality, Miss Torrey
said, was we'll suited for the needs of
the children.
All the teachers in the school say
that the tentative working of the plan
thus far has been to provide much
more wideawake children after the
lunch hour and to do away with the
eagerness to have school dismissed.

CHAPTER Xxx.


Before Jen had time to inuiqre the
meaning of David's strange exclama-
tion. the young man had turned on his
heel and was walking rapidly back to
the house. Surprised by this behavior,
and suspicious of its reason. the Ma
jor called out to him to stop; but,
without taking any notice, the young
man increased his pace, and was soon
lost to sight. Jen went after him, and
on entering the library found that only
Arkel was present
''Where is DR.. Etwald?" demanded
the Major, anxiously.
He went up stairs a few minutes
ago to see your servant" replied the
Inspector, rising. Mr.. Sarby was with
him"
Jen started. Evidently David had
returned before him in order to see
Etwald, and, to gain private speech
with the doctor, had conducted him 70
Jaggard's sick room. For the moment
Jen-still suspicious of Sarby's beha-
vior-had it in his mind to follow;
but a few minutes Of reflection con
vinced him that this was unnecessary.
David did not know all the conversa-
ton which had taken place between
himself and Isabella, therefore he
could inform Etwald Of nothing new.
But. indeed. the Major pOndered why
David wished to speak privately with
the doctor. It looked. To his mind. as
though the two men were in league.
We'll, never mind Dr. Etwald Just
now" he said. aloud. He had his du-
ties to perform, and I have mine. Sit
down, Mr.. Arkel. I suppose you won
der why l have sent for you"
We'll. no. Major. I presume it is IN
connection with the case"
"You are right I wish to know II
you have discovered anything new"
Yes. Your messenger, Battersea,
was wandering about your grounds on
that night"

some notes which he held in his hand.

ODD GEOGRAPHICAL FACTS.

Unique Points About the United
States Worth Remembering.
Among the many geographical pc
Euliarities In the United States there
are some especially interesting.
The two largest counties in the
United States are Custer County, Mon
tana, and San Bernardino County, Cal
ifornia. Each of these is little more
than 10000 square miles in extent, and
the States of Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, Delaware and New Jersey
could be put inside the boundaries OF
either OF them. The smallest county
In the Union Is Bristol County, Rhode
Island. which has only rs square
miles.
The county In the United States hav-
Ing the largest population is New
York. which has 100000 people in it.
At the time of the last census Bailey
County, Texas, which is about the size
Of the State OF Rhode Island, had only
four inhabitants.
About so miles from Durango, Colo
rado, there Is a point where four
States meet. Here by stepping a, few
feet In either direction one can walk
in four different commonwealths In as
many seconds. These commonwealths
are the States Of Colorado, Utah and
the Territories of New Mexico and
Arizona. A nearly parallel case Is at
Harper's Ferry, where the train stops
few minutes to allow the passengers
TO alight and enjoy view which per-
mits them to look into three States
Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia
The highest and lowest elevations In
this country are In California, within
100 miles of each other. The loftiest
is Mt. Whitney, 14,499 feet high, and
the lowest is Death Valley, about 45O
feet below the level Of the sea.
Two Oceans Pass, in Yellowstone
Park, is 80 named because whenever
there is a shower in the vicinity and a
certain small creek overfows, It's
waters spread over the edge Of the
continental divide and pass into trib-
utaries Of rivers which flow to the At
lantic and to the Pacific.
The longest city street in the United
States is Western avenue, Chicago,
which Is exactly % miles long. It's
nearest rival is Halsted street, also
In Chicago, which Is two-thirds Of a
mile shorter. Halsted street Is 30
much more closely built up that 1t Is
usually spoken of as the longest street
in the world. Interspersed with the
native Americans on this one street
are Germans, Italians, Russians, Jews.
Bohemians, Poles and Greeks. Hal
sted street Is crossed over and under
by 20 railroads.
A novel way to demonstrate the size
Of the State of Texas is to spread out
a map Of the Union and stretch a
string across Texas the longest way.
Then placing one end Of the measure
at Chicago, one will find that the other
end will extend into either the Allan
tic Ocean or the Gulf Of Mexico.

A PLANT PIONEER.

The kinnikinic is plant pioneer
Often 1t is the first plant to make a
settlement or establish a colony on a
barren or burned-over area. 1t is
hardy, and is able to make start
and thrive in places so inhospitable as
to afford most plants not the slightest
foothold. Enos A. Mills, in wild Life
on the Rockies" tells of the beneficial
work which this plant does; it often
opens the way for the growth of a
flourishing forest.
The kinnikinic, or Arctostaphylos
Uva-ursi, as the botanists name it,
may be called a ground-loving vine.
Although always attractive, it is In
winter that it is at its best. Then its
bright green leaves and red berries
shine among the snow-fowers in a
quiet way that is strikingly beauti-
full.
Once kinnikinic has made start it
is constantly assisted to succeed by
its own growing success. Its arms
catch and hold snow and this gives a
supply VI muCu u6eueu WdCeI 4nlo
water is snugly stored beneath the
plant, where but little can be reached
or taken by the sun or the thirsty
winds. The winds, too, bring some
thing to it-dust, powdered earth,
trash, the remains of dead insects;
some of this material is carried for
miles. All goes to form new soil, or
to FERTILE or mulch the old. The soil
bed grows deeper and richer, and is
also constantly outbuilding and enlarg-
ing.
In few years small oasis is form
ed in, or rather on, the barren. This
becomes a place of refuge for seed
wanderers, in fact, a nursery. There
are millions of acres now almost des-
ert that may some time be changed
and beautified by this cheerful plant.
Some time many bald and barren
places in the Rockies will be
plumed with pines, hammered with
flowers, have brooks, butterflies and
singing birds, all of these because Of
the reclaiming work which will be
done by charming kinnikinic.

Roberts noted that a sowar of the
squardon with which he rode was in
great danger from a sepoy with a
fixed bayonet The contest of sword
against bayonet would have ended dis
astrously had not Roberts intervened
and disposed of the bayonet. That
was barely done when he noticed in
the distance two sepoys fleeing with a
standard. He galloped after the reb-
els and overlook them, and then he
had a close fight for the possession
of the standard. He cut down its
chief bearer. While wrenching the
staff from the mans grasp with both
of his hands the other sepoy turned
his musket on him and fired. The
muzzle was within a few inches of
Roberts person, and there would GER
tainly have been an end of him had
not the musket refused to go off As
it was, he rode away unhurt with the
standard, and for those two courage

"And what did you do?" asked Jen
much interested in this strange his
tory.
Il went in later on, and found that
my mother had gone to bed l said
nothing at the time as | was afraid
of Dido. Afterwards when Maurice
was killed. and you said that the devil
stick had killed him, l went to Dido
and accused her of the crime. She
was fearfully angry and warned me
that if l said a word about the theft
of the devil-stick, l would be in dan
ger of hanging my own mother, AFRAID
lest such an accusation should Kill my
mother who is not strong, l said moth
ing to her or indeed to anyone. l told
a lie to you to save my mother; what
else could l do? But now l tell you
the truth and l wish you to protect
us both against the evil of Dido and
DR.. Etwald."
You believe that Dr. Etwald killed
Maurice?'
Il am sure of it, When l became
Ill through the terror of the secret
which l possessed, Dido prepared that
poison under the pretence of curing
me, but now know that she did so to
refill the devil-stick. She then sent
it to Etwald, and he killed Maurice.
Also he stole the body with the as
sistance of Dido"
Major Jen moved a step towards the
door of the summer-house. All at once
he paused and looked back.

quickly. Does David know about the
theft of the devil-stick? That is" he
added more precisely, does he know
that your mother stole it?"
Il cannot be quite certain if he does, !"
said Isabella, after a pause, but |
fancy he has some idea of it. When
he has seen me of late he has always
been so nervous and silent. At our
last meeting, also, he told me that we
were to fear nothing"
''Hm!" said Jen, reflectively I'm
doubtedly you are right, Miss Dallas.
David must have learned the truth in
some way: but l cannot imagine how
Well, good-by good-by. shall see

Jen decided to merely hint to David
that he knew the truth, and to let the
sarrssst of Etwald tell its own tale, and
umseal the lads lips, by showing that
Mrs. Dallas was innocent. AS Jen
came to this conclusion, he entered his
own gates, and rather to his surprise
he met David, considerably agitated,
advancing to meet him.
