right and gained the main street. He
was safe now, and he hailed passing
cab, ordered the isvoschik to take him
to the Slaviansky Bazaar. AS he stood
on the walk, waiting for the vehicle
to draw up, he felt chilly and, his ex.
citement having subsidized somewhat
he made a discovery that gave him a
shock and filed him with feeling of
uneasiness that was destined to pos
sess him for many days to come.
He had left his overcoat behind
somewhere in that den Of nihilists. He
got into the cab, and, as 1t tore
through the streets, the wheels
squeaking in the snow, he sat there
shiverlng, his chin in his hand, rack
ing his brain to remember, II possible,
whether there was anything in the
pockets, a letter, cards, a cigar-case,
that might betray the identity of the
owner. To save his life he could not
settle this point in his mind.
It was late when he reached the
hotel, and just as the gray light Of
dawn began to sift in through the
curtains, he fell into a sound slumber.
1t was fully ten o'clock when he went
out into his Office and sent for his
coffee. AS he was drinking 1t, Wang
entered in great excitement, with a
newspaper.
Look at this!" cried the boy. "The
police raided a den of nihilists last
night, and the latter threw a bomb,
killing four of the officers and wound.
ing six others. It was the society
known as The Enemies of Russia
made up of disaffected Russians,
Poles, Firms, even Jews-all who hate
this accursed government"
Hardy glanced at the boy, marvel
ing much at the revelation of hate in
that ingenious word, "accursed."
"Why are you an enemy of Rus
sia?" he asked.
"Oh, for no particular reason" fal-
tered the boy, turning pale. "I-per-
haps I am not. And the nihilists all
disappeared, as though the earth had
swallowed them up. Not thing was
left to prove the identity of q mem
ber, except one costly, fur-lined over
coat, which proves that this society
numbers among it's members some of
the weather. classes, perhaps of the
nobility. l tell you"-and Wang
struck the paper with his right hand
in his excitement-"thatt this country
is a house divided against itself.
Leave it alone, and it will work out
it's own destruction and salvation!"
The boys eyes were flashing now
and his cheeks were so af1ame with
excitement that the scar nearly dis
appeared.
Hardy gulped down his coffee and
started for the door.
IF anybody calls for me, Wang" he
said, tell them that l will be back
in an hour"
He did return IN that time, wear
ing an exact duplicate of the over
coat that he had lost the night before
And still there was no sign of the
police. He felt reassured. Had there
been any telltale letters, cards or doc
uments in the pockets of the missing
garment, the officers of the law, he
reasoned, would have lost no time in
laying hands on him.

A LITTLE THING
Changes the Home Feeling.

Coffee blots out the sunshine from
many home by making the mother,
or some other member of the house
hold, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable
There are thousands of cases where
the proof is absolutely undeniable.
Here is one.
A Wis. mother writes:
II was taught to drink coffee at an
early age, and also at an early age be-
came a victim to headaches, and as
grew to womanhood these headaches
became part of me, as was scarcely
ever free from them.
About five years ago a friend urged
NE to try Postum. I made the trial
and the result was so satisfactory that
we have used it ever since.
my husband and little daughter
were subject to bilious attacks, but
they have both been entirely free from
them since we began using Postum in
stead of coffee. I no longer have
headaches and my health is perfect"
If some of these tired, nervous, ir-
ritable women would only leave OF
coffee absolutely and try Postum they
would find a wonderful change in their
life. It would then be filled with sum
shine and happiness rather than weari-
ness and discomfort. And think what
an effect it would have on the family.
for the mood of the mother is largely
responsible for the temper of the chill
dren.

India, brought with him a pair Of

Pinch. Alas! shipboard life did not

WALTER HOCUE WILL
Die ON THE GALLOWS
GOVERNOR DONAGHEY FIXES
FRIDAY, MARCH II, DATE
OF EXECUTION.

Little Rock, Feb 7.-Walter Hogue,
convicted of the murder of Grover
Misner, near Aplin, Perry county,
about a year ago, will be hanged for
the crime at Perryville on March II,
that date being fixed by Governor
Donaghey.
Hogue is about 20 years of age. He
was convicted of killing Grover Mis-
ner, with whom he was engaged in
hunting and trapping in Perry coun-
ty, near Aplin. The two men occu-
pied cabin, and it is alleged that
Hogue was in debt to Misner in the
sum of $40, which the latter insisted
that Hogue should pay before return
ing to his home in mansfield. The
two men are saidt have quarreled
over the settlement of the loan and
that Hogue shot and killed Misner
while he slept, took what money the
dead man had on his person and went
to Mansfield, where he was arrested.
The case was appealed to the su-
preme court, and the judgment of
the lower court was affirmed.
Pending the appeal Hogue has been
confined in the state penitentiary in
this city for safe keeping.
