found to grow successfully was sor-
ghum and peanuts. He said he new
er saw peanuts do better any place

too little cultivation; that he had
reversed the order and gave more
cultivation and less water. This he

ed with the results.-Payette En-

Hearing After Death.
From the London Mail.

fIo1l lhO AfOtiaoAA wall
An extraordinary incident which oc-
Cured at the gutllotining at Orleans
of the murderer Languille has been in
t~erestingly explained by Professor
Hartsmann, a famous Paris surgeon.
When the blade of the guillotine fell.
Languille's head was completely Sc
vered from the trunk. A doctor who
was In attendance Immediately picked
name. To the establishment OF all
present the eyelids of the severed head
opened wide n then closed again.
"Languille! Languille!" called the
doctor a second time, and once more
the eyelids lifted, but a third call met
with no response.
Professor Hartsmann says 1t is quite
possible for a form of nervous life to
exist after death. This would not be
the case II the subject died naturally
or OF some disease, but undoubtedly 1t
would be so in the case Of a healthy
person meeting with a sudden n VOL
ent death. When a strong man sud
denly passes from life to death his
bodily tissues show a considerable
amount Of resistance.
The professor say that he himself
dissected the body Of a man thirty six
hours after he had been executed, and
that on pricking with a needle the
nerve of the thigh he discovered n a
1t was alive.
In the case of Languille, says the
professor, the cyelids opened, not be-
cause the name of Languille was pro-
nounced, but cause the sound OF the
voice on the ears produced a reflex
action on the nerves They would have
lifted had any other name been called.

"She blushed as she stood before her
accusers. They hustled the man h
loved up the steps Of the platform n
the leader said:
There, take her!'
But the mar turned away.
What is he a fool?' the leader
asked. She loves the most worthless
fellow in the crowd and he will not
have her.
TT was true! The only man in the
camp who did not love her was the
nan she loved"
with more curiosity than / had felt
during the recital, interesting as it
was.
HE went back to civilization, to the
woman he loved, to be repulsed by her
a second time. And now, after ten
years Of absence, he returns on this an
niversary Of the night in which she
was dethroned to revisit the place
where he saw this woman who loved
him; as a sort Of penance on this night
to recall the night ten years ago, when
in that church h men Of this camp
turned the woman from them an6 came
near killing the worthless wretch be-
cause he cared nothing for her whom
the rest adored. But such was western
chivalry in those days and in this
place."
He never recognized in me the leader
of that camp. md we sat by the fire
until the last log of the house burned to
ashes, and then, in the gray OF the
morning, tool up our packs n
tramped over h mountain trail.

CHAPTER Nv.
THE LOT"

1t was not a bit like Scotland Yard
as Kathleen Kent had pictured 1t. 1t
was a kind Of a yard certainly, for the
grimy little street, flanked on either
side with the blank faces of dirty little
houses, ended abruptly in a high wall,
over which were the gray hulls and fat
scarlet tunnels Of ocean-going steam
ers.
The driver Of the cab had pulled up
before one Of the houses near the wall.
n a door q opened. Then the man
who sat with her in glum silence, an
swering her questions in monosyllabies,
grasped her arm and hurried her into
the house. The door slammed behind,
and she realized her deadly peril. She
had had a f~oreboding. an instructive
~premonition that all was not well when
the cab turned from the broad thor
oughfare that led to where she had
imagined Scotland Yard would be, and
had, taking short cuts through innum-
cradle mean streets, moved at a sharp
pace eastward. Ignorant Of that Lon
don which begins at Trafalgar square
ignorant, indeed, Of that practical SUI
burb to which the modesty Of an in
come produced by $4,000 worth Of
consols had r~elegated her, she felt
without knowing. that Scotland Yard
did not lay at the eastern n Of Com
mercial road.
Then when the door of the little
house slammed and a hand grasped her
arm tightly, and a thick voice whis-
pered in her ear that If she screamed
the owner of the voice would "out"
her, she gathered. without exactly
knowing what an outing was, that it
would be wiser for her not to scream,
so she quietly accompanied her captor
up the stairs. He stopped for a mo-
ment on the rickety landing, then
pushed open q door.
Before the window hat would in the
ordinary covrse of events admit the
light of day hung a heavy green cur
tain; behind this, though she did
not know 1t, three army blankets, ju-
diciously fixed, effectively excluded the
sunlight. and as effectually yelled the
rays Of a swing lamp from outside
observation.
The girl made a pathetically incon-
gruous figure. as h stood white but
resolute before the occupants Of the
room.

particularly disarming-"you're the
man I want to see."
What's the game" the other snarl-
ed. He was a big, heavily-Duilt man,
with a dropping mustache.
Nothing, nothing" smiled Angel. I
want you for the Lagos job. but there's
not enough evidence to convict you.
Make your mind easy"
The man went white under his tan;
hts hand caught the edge OF the table
before him.
"Lagos!" he stammered. What
what"
"Oh. never mind about that" Angel
airily waved the matter aside. sit
down here"
The man hesitated, then obeyed, and
dropped into a seat between the two.
Angel looked around. So far as any
danger of being overheard went, they
were as much alone as though they sat
in the center Of a desert.
"Jimmy"-Angel held him by the arm
you said Just now you'd got q march
when you admitted you'd seen Reale's
puzzle verse. 1t wasn't the march you
thought 1t was, for I had seen the will
and so IA Conner here"
He looked the heavy man straight In
the eye.
There is somebody else that bene-
fits unde that will besides you two.
1t Is a girl" He did not take his eyes
from Conner. II was curious to see
that young lady" Angel went on. "and
this afternoon I drove to Chaplain to
interview her."
He stopped again. Conner made no
reply, but kept his eyes fixed on the
floor.
II went to interview her. and found
that she Ia mysteriously disappeared
this very afternoon"
Again he stopped.
"a -@N-~- ,alaS - .44 k4r ~,tkh
a message from-who do you think,
Connor?" he asked.
The easy. fiippant manner was gone.
n Conner, looking up, caught the
steady stare Of two cold blue eyes, and
shivered.
why" Angel went on slowly, ut
was a message from Inspector Angel
which is q damned piece Of impudence,
Conner, for Tn not an inspector-and
the young lady drove away to Scotland
Yard. And now, Connor, I van to ask
you, What have you done with old
Reale's heiress?"
Common licked his lips and said moth
ing.
Angel beckoned to a waiter and paid
his score. then rose to go.
You will go at once and drive Miss
Kathleen Kent back to the place you
took her from. I shall call tomorrow
n see her, and IL n hair of her
head is harmed, Connor-'
"Well?" said Conner defiantly.
I'll chance your alibis, and take you
for the Lagos business" and with q
curt nod to Jimmy, he left the saloon.
Conner turned in a fret Of fury to the
man at his side.
Dye hear him. Jimmy? Dye hear
the dog"
my advice to YOU" interrupted the
other, "is-do as Angel tells you"
Dye think I'm frightened by"
"Oh. no." was the quiet response,
you are not frightened at what Angel
may do. What he does won't matter
very much. What ! will do is the trou-
ble."

Value of Woodlots.

The few acres Of wooded land every
farm should boast of are becoming
more and more valuable year by year.
In Michigan, for instance. which was
once so heavily timbered, the farmers
are beginning to consider trees as a
crop. Underbrush Is no longer cut
down in the timber patches IL the farm
er realizes the destruction he is caus-
ing. One farmer near Detroit, 1t is
said, paid $500 to have his woodlot un-
der brushed, thinking 1t the right thing,
and then paid $4,000 to undo the mis-
chief by setting out underbrush in the
same places.
