Bonnetons' More than that, @J he seemed in excellent spirits and as he sat down to Mother Bon neton's modest luncheon he nodded good naturedly to Matthieu, the sub stitute watchman, whom the sacristan introduced.
 The woodcarver had thick brown hair, a short yellowish mustache and close cut brownish beard. He was dressed like superior workingman, in flannel shirt, a rough blue suit. oil stained and dust sprinkled, and he wore thick soled boots. The detective was forced to admit that if this was q disguise it was the most admirable one he had ever seen.
 During the meal Groener talked free Iy, speaking with d slight Belgian ac- cent, but duently enough. He seemed to have a naive spirit of drollery
 M Paul marveled at the mans self possession Not tone or a glance or a muscle betrayed him. It was mar velous acting. an extraordinary make mp. but this was his man, all right There was the long little finger plain ly visible the identical finger of his seventeenth century cast. The woodcarver went on to express delight at being back in Paris, where his work would keep him three or four days Business was brisk. thank heaven, with an extraordinary demand for old sideboards with carved panels of the Louis XIV. period, which they turned out by the dozen-ha, ha, ha-in the Brussels shop. Across the table Matthieu showed his appreciation of this trick in art catering, and he made bold to ask M Groener if there would be any chance for a man like himself In a woodcarving shop. His present job at Notre Dame was for only a few days
 ''I'll help you with pleasure" he said But today l enjoy myself. This aft ernoon l escort my pretty cousin Alice to hear some music"
 Since the meal began Alice had | scarcely spoken, but had sat looking down at her plate save at certain mo- ments when she would lift her eyes suddenly and fix them on Groener with a strange, half frightened ex- pression.
 You are very kind, Cousin Adolf" she answered timidly, "but-Pm not feeling well today"
 The girl hesitated. and Mother Bon neton put in harshly: 'Tn tell you. She's fretting about that American who was sent to prison. A good rid ance it was"
 ''Stopw cried Alice.
 No, no! I'll tell it all. When & girl slips away from her work at the church and goes to see man like Paul Coquenil"-
 Have you never heard of Paul Co quenil?" smiled Matthieu, kicking Papa Bonneton warningly under the table. Groener answered with perfect sim plicity: No wonder you smile, NJ. Matthieu But think how far away from Paris I live Besides, I want this to be a happy day. Come, little cousin; you shall tell me all about 1t when we are out together. Run along now and put on your nice dress and hat"
 Alice rose from the table, deathly white. It seemed to Coquenil that her eyes met his in desperate appeal, and then, with glance at Groener, half of submission, half of defiance, she left the room.
 Matthieu bowed politely and, follow ed by the sacristan, went out. "Now, Bonneton," ordered the detec- five sharnly. when they were in the

person in this illustriOus trio whose
pictures are to deck your walls. These
last two, Lee and Davis. most appro-
priately hang together, side by side,
as representatives of the same people

They were contemporaries in a trying
time, beginning their careers together
as cadets in West Point. then COM
patriots in the war of the United
States against Mexico. Afterwards
comrades in a conflict between sec

finally captives together in a conquest
not won by superior skill, surprising
bravery, sublimer heroism, or more
splendid fOrtitude. but by a more

present to the Ocala High School the
picture of this grand and noble man,

COLONEL
ROSE FROM
THE RANKS
HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH
HIS REMOVAL.
DONS CITlZENS'CLOTHES

Factionai differences among reg
uIar army officers, spurred on by
the fact that Lieutenant Colonel
Abererombie of the Twenty-fifth
infantry rose from a private in the
ranks instead Of going through
West Point, has helped to bring on
the sensational shakeup at Fort
Wright. The fact that Colonel
Abercrombie gave his assistance
to the civil authorities at Spokane
In the Industrial Workers Of the
World street speaking controversy
gave his opponents the loophoIe
wanted and the next step was his
retirement from the command Of
the post and the elevation Of the
next in command, Major Particle,
a West Pointer, who is soon to be
promoted to the position Of lieu
tenant colonel.
Officers at Fort Wright are now
expecting an investigation by the
war department in which the
merits of the street speaking con-
troversy campaign in Spokane will
be thoroughly threshed out. Gen
eral Maus, commander of the de-
partment OF the Columbia, made
the statement while in this city in
December that there was no need
for dragging the military into the
affair; that 1t was a small matter
and could have been handled by
the civil authorities, and facts to
substantiate this view of the case
will be laid before the inquiry
board when it comes.
Friends of Colonel Abercrombie
do not attribute any but the best
motives to his participation in the
/. w. w. affair, crediting him. with
a desire to help the city in their
seeming inability to cope with
trying situation. But if his remOv-
al has come because of his activity
in this particular, his good inten-
tons has given his opponents
chance to oust and thereby rid
the regular army of another man
that has come up from the ranks.
Major Particle refuses to be in
terviewed, but says the l. w. w.
has not figured in the case. He
says everything is lovely at the
fort and that there are no factions.
Colonel Abercrombie today doff-
ed his military apparel and put on
civilian clothes. He will remain
in his quarters at Fort Wright un-
til the war department acts on his
request for retirement. The de-
partment headquarters has already
approved his request to be relieved
from further service in the army.
