Illegal It's against the most sacred
law of the land for you to be here at
all; and, painful though it is to me,
1t is nevertheless my duty to order
you to leave the United States at

hanged by the neck until you be dead.
One of Mr.. Cookies men will accom-
pany you to New York tomorrow and
see to 1t that you take passage on a

crime of having insulted a woman will
still hang over you until you are well
east Of Sandy Hook, and I advise you
not to risk being tried on that charge
in North Carolina, as my people are
very impulsive and emotional, and
lynchings are not infrequent in our
midst. You shall spend tonight in
my official caboose some distance

In the quaint old German town of
Oberstein an ancient church stands,
built in the great rock rising from the
river. The front of the building is of
stone, but the church itself is followed
out of the rock and penetrates far into
its heart. Tradition says that in the
fourteenth century the count of ODER
stein, one of the old robber barons, fell
deeply in love with beautiful young
lady, the daughter of a neiShboring
knight.
His brother also sought the fair
maidens hand and the two suitors had
violent quarrel The upshot was
that the count flung his hapless broth
er from the top of his castle wall
high up the precipitous cliff Repent.
ing of mis- awful deed, the count vowed
that he would build a church where
his brothers body first touched the
ground. He did so, eXcavating the
church in the rock; and tradition goes
on to say miraculous spring of clear
water sprang from the crag as a token
that heaven was appeased. This
curious church is now the only
Protestant place of worship in tho
town.-Wide World Magazine.

Miss Dangerfield Takes Prisoner.
A dozen men carrying rifles across
their saddle-bows rode away from
Understands farm on the outskirts of
Turner Court House and struck
rough trail that led devious course
over the hills. At their head rode the
guide of the expedition-a long silent
man on mule, Griswold and Haber-
sham followed Immediately behind
him on horseback. Their plans had
been carefully arranged before they
left their rendezvous, and save for
an occasional brief interchange be-
tween the prosecuting attorney and
the governors special representative,
the party logged on in silence. Haber-
sham's recruits were, 1t may be said,
farmers OF the border, who had await

Gladstone's power of memory was
always one of his greatest assets. In
his last years he often lamented that
it was not what it had been; but even
so, it came triumphantly out of some
remarkable tests. In his eighty-third
year he set himself to recall Manzoni's
ode on the death of Napoleon, which,
as a young man, he had translated
into English. He had entirely forgot
ten his own version, but by dint OF
hard digging" or Fishing up" as he
called it, he wrote down lO4 of the
1Os Italian lines. Two years later he
essayed to write from memory com
plete list of all the men who had been

ated 60 of the TO- Is

upon tie insolent Appieweights. Near
ly every man of the party had some
private score to settle, but they had
all been sworn as special constables
and were sobered by the knowledge
that the power of the state of South
Carolina was back OF them.
Thus, at the very hour that Mr..
Ardmore and his lieutenant rode
away from the lonely anchorase of
the caboose, Prof. Griswold anu his
cavalcade set out for Mount Nebo
church. When the master of Ardsley
was revenging himself upon the duke
of Ballywinkle, his dearest friend,
against whom he had closed the doors
of his house, was losing no time in
setting forth upon mission which, IL
successful, would seriously interfere
with all Mr.. Ardmore's hopes and
plans.
The guide of the expedition pushed
his mule forward at a fast walk, max
ing no excuses to Griswold and Haber-
sham for the roughness of the trails
he chose, nor troubling to give warn
ing of sharp turns where horse, be-
ing less wise than mule, tobogganed
madly before flnding'a foothold. Oc-
casionally low hanging limb switched

The guide paused to examine, and

"Within how many days?' demand
ed Griswold, his heart sinking at the
thought that Ardmore had lied to him
to keep him away from Ardsley-
from Ardmore's housed The thought
of 1t really hurt him now.
Come on!" called Habersham.
Half the company rode ahead to
gain the farther side of the church;
the remainder, including Griswold and
Habersham, soon dlsmounted and tied
their horses out of sight of the coun-
try road which they had latterly been
following
I'VE are in plenty of time" said
Habersham, looking at his watch.
1.-THE rest of the boys are closing in
/ from the other side and they will be
ready for Appleweight when he fin
ishes his devotions. We've been study
ing the old mans habits and he has a
particular place where he ties his
horse back of the church. It's lit
tie apart from the fence where most
of the congregation hitch, and he
chose 1t, no doubt, because in case
of surprise he would have plenty
of room for maneuvering. Two men
are going to lay for him, seize and
gag him and carry him into the wood
back of the church; and then we're
off across the state line to lock him
up in Jail at Kildare and give Gov
Dangerfield the shock of his life"
1T sounds simple enough; but 1t
won't be long before Appleweight's
friends miss him. You must remem-
Der that they are shrewd lot"
We've got to take our chances.
Let's hope we are as shrewd as they
are" replied Habersham.
They moved softly through the
wood and presently the faint sound of
singing reached them.
"Old Rabdick has finished his SER
mon and Wen know the worst in a
few minutes"
One of the party had already de.
tached himself and crept forward to-
ward the chuch to meet his appointed
comrade in the enterprise, who was to
come in from the other side.
The clapboard church presented in
the moonlight the austerest outlines,
and as the men waited rude though
unseen hand was slamming the wood
en- shutters that protected the win
dows from impious violence.
I'VE could do with less moon," NUT
tered Habersham, as he and Griswold
peered through the trees into the
churchyard.
There goes Bill Appleweight now"
whispered one of the natives at his
elbow, and Griswold felt his heart
beats quicken as he watched a tall
figure silhouetted against the church
and moving swiftly toward the rear
of the building. At the front of the
church voices sounded, as the de-
parting worshipers rode or drove slow.

Habersham laid his hand suddenly
on Griswold's arm.
"They've got him! They've nailed

Griswold saw nothing but momen

The Hepburn incident in the United

ton ID. 60 Herald as an opportunity
for the senate to show itself in its best
light. The Herald says; Neither the
tate OF empire nor the destiny of man
hung ON the senate's decision ms to
whether few old veterans Of the late
confederacy should he permitted the
use Of q number of army tents and
things during the progress OF forth

head meant little in itself. Unempha-
sized by Senator Heyburn's foolishly
bitter TRADE against the late wsarers

the resolution would have passed quiet
ly and in order, and nothing untoward
would have come of it whatever. Tho
dead past has long ago been permitted
to bury it's dead in the m after of sscss :.
sion, the civil war, and all that appsr-
tains to that fratrieidal strife, and it
Is emily here and there that Senator
Hepburn comes upon the scene with
his feeble effort to stir it up anew.
The senate rose superbly to the de-
mands OF the crisis thrust upon it by
Mr.. Heyburn's vociferous vehsnencs,
however, and voted to a man-saving
and excepting Mr.. Heyb bur, himself
to grant the petition as originally filed
by Mr.. Bankhead; and that despite
the Idaho senator's jsrripg solo OF pro-

of Mr.. Hepburn was inspiring, ana

feeling of profound respect for the SEN
