CHAPTER x.-continued.

He had been on deck a long time
that day. but Baraka had only been
established In her chair a few min
utes. AS yet he had hardly talked
with her Of anything but the neces-
sary preparations for the journey, and
she had trusted him entirely, being so
worn out with fatigue and bodily dis
comfort that she was already half
asleep when he had at last brought
her aboard, late on the previous night.
Before the yacht had sailed he had re-
ceived Van Torp's telegram informing
him that Kralinsky was at Bayreuth;
for his secretary had sat up till two
in the morning to telegraph him the
latest news and forward any message
that came. and Van Torp's had been
amongst the number.

tell you" Logotheti said.
Baraka prepared herself against be-
traying surprise By letting her lids
droop a little. but that was all.

ing; and Logotbeti told himself how
utterly happy he should be n Baraka
could turn into Margaret and be walk
ing with him there; yet something an
swered him that since she was not by
his side he was not to be pitied for
the company OF a lovely Tartar girl
whose language he could understand
and even speak tolerably: and when
the first voice observed rather drily
that Margaret would surely think that
he ought to feel very miserable, the
second voice told him to take the
goods the gods sent him and be crate
full: and this little antiphone OF
Ormuzd and Ahriman went on for
some time. till II occurred to him TO
stop the duo by explaining to Baraka
how European girl would probably
slip her arm, or at least her hand.
through the arm of the man with
whom she was walking on the deck of
a yacht, because there was generally
little motion at sea. and she would
like to steady herself. and when there
was none. there ought to be, and she
would do the same thing by force OF
habit. But Baraka looked at such be-
havior quite differently.
THAT would be a sort of dance"
she said. Il am not dancing grill I

together. both Russians In Samarkand
and other people in France. II is dis
gusting. I would rather 60 unveiled

seems slated for another airing. Some
time in January, Thomas Grubb. depu-
ty clerk Of the supreme court, sub
mitted to Attorney General Byers q
question as to the legality of the sys-
tenn which was established by Clerk
Crockett and is continued there.
Crockett placed his two nieces in the
office, one as general clerk and the
other in charge of copying for lawyers
and for publishing houses. This ar
rangement continues to the present
time. But it is recalled that after the
trouble twelve years ago over fees
while Clerk Jones was in charge, when
substantially the same system was in
vogue, the law was SO fixed that in
practically every office of the state it
is required that every fee of every kind
shall go direct to the state treasury.
1t was claimed by Jones that the work
was not official, but the state would
not have it that way. Jones finally
paid over the fees and the legislature
reimbursed him on the theory that he
was the victim of misunderstand-
ing. Byers has not yet had time to rem
der a decision in the case. The copy
fees received in the office from pub
fishers and lawyers.
