CHAPTER XIV.


FLIGHT.
vt was nine o'clock in the evening.
Major Taliaferro and his guests
were sitting in his office room
i chatting. A clatter Of horses
boots was heard at the front OF the
house and some one dismounted. In
another moment there was tramp of
cavalry boots in the hall; all turned to
the open door-and there stood Cap
tain Cameron Fitz Hugh.
For moment he regarded Mark and
Laura sternly; then advancing few
steps he bowed low to Laura.
Captain" said the major rising, Il
suppose it is useless to deny to this
lady and gentleman that deemed 1t
my duty to make sure Of their iden-
tity before allowing them to pass. The
family to which they claim to belong
is known to you; therefore sent to
you for Information. see you have
answered my inquiry in person. II
you vouch for them I shall be happy
to pass them in the morning, and shall
apologize for their detention at the
same tme-my excuse being the cause
we serve"
All eyes were fixed on Fitz Hugh,
Marks and Laura's with i'll concealed
anxiety.
"This was Miss Fain." said Fitz
Hugh. "She would not be travelling
as any mans wife unless she were mar
rfed to him. II you detain them, You
must do so on your own responsible
ity."
Both Mark and Laura drew a sigh
of relief.
81 have no desire to detain them"
said Taliaferro, latter what you have
said. but it is altogether too late for
them to proceed tonight. The only
amends can make for discommoding
them is to make them comfortable.
Mrs. Green, your room is ready for
you"
Captain" said Mark. "may I beg a
cigarl / usually smoke at this time of
night"
"Here are cigars. gentlemen" said
Taliaferro, producing box.
eff you smoke. captain" added Mark,
st shall be pleased with your COM
pany."

All lighted cigars. and Mark and
Fitz Hugh strolled out on the veranda-

were outside, ST have never met man

as. you. and yet I have robbed you of
your love. This last act Of kindness
to her and to me. so well indicating
your magna1imity, is more than I can

even for her sake. I cannot stay here
to be shielded by you and behind her
skirts. am about to leave this We
randa and fly to the Union lines.
Thank God. have met one who is the
soul Of honor, in whose charge leave
my wife. Consider her under your
care. She will doubtless need all you
can give her, for I never expect to
see her again. I shall doubtless be
captured before tomorrow noon. II
you were not my enemy, If you had
not been my rival, I would love you
as brother"
Without waiting for reply Mark
left the veranda, and in another mo-
ment was lost in the darkness.

THE FREIGHT RATE DECISIONS.
They Sustain the Deservedly High
 Credit of American Railroads.

The opinion of MT. Commissioner Prouty in the Eastern Rate Case and the opinion of MT. Commissioner Lane in the Western Rate Case com pletely sustain the deservedly high credit of American railway securities of we'll managed or only fairly well managed reasonably capitalized rail- roads in spite of the continued effort to discredit railroad securities by the railroads themselves
 As clearly pointed out in these opin- ions, rebates, departures from pub lished tariffs, discriminations and free transportation prior to Federal regu- Iation. meant ruin to the financial credit of American railroads. Eff ficient and effective Federal regula- tion of railroads made possible by the Hepburn Act of 1906, has spelt the difference between bankruptcy and prosperity and the railroads of this country as a whole and many in par ticular have never been more pros porous in their history. The com mon stock of railroads typified by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company are as stable as Government bonds and more profitable to the holders through regular dividends and secret dividends in the form of stockhold- ers' rights. These decisions will firm lv fix in the minds of the public that effective regulation of carriers is an

GENE M'CANN
 IN HERO ROLE.
O.d Scout Visits Brass City Heroic One Speaks Out Again Gan Have Waterbury if He Wants it

Gene McCann goes Sam Bernard one better. Sam was Nearly g. Hero" Gene is a hero. At least that is the way he is being hailed in the Brass City. He can have the old town if he wants it, but would not know what to do with 1t when pre- scented to him. He could do worse than anneXing 1t to the United States. Gene was in the Brass City Wednes- day evening, on business of course, and every fan in the burg wanted to init him. Center street, on which the Hotel Connecticut is located, and where McCann found Car1 Pace was worse than our own Main street on election night. Every one wanted to get a peep at McCann. They had seen and hooted at him a number of times befores but now he is a differ ent parsonage. He advances upon , them as hero, a preserver of the rights of the people. Every nook and cranny, every window and door, held it's quota. And they stayed Gene to depart for his train to Bridgeport. He left, reminding. the natives that he would return again, then to get back at those cruel Wa terburians for some sores inflicted last season.
 
 Genes nice little visit:
 Probably Gene didn't get some re- ception from the time he stepped off the trolley car until he jumped on 8 boat for the return trip at 10 o'clock. Gene, as far as Waterbury wonder has. anything on him these days. Some fans may recall the time last year when all McCann had to do at Reidville was to look cross eyed at an umpire or change his posi-. ton on the bench and roar of wrath would roll out from Murder CTS Row loud enough to make any manager wish he was selling Crack erjack in the Salvation Army circuit.
 Everybody who met Gene wanted port magnate had accepted all the invitations to indulge in colored liquids, he wouldn't be able to think of baseball until the middle of July. It was all because McCann had had nerve enough to stand up for Pare at that league meeting and if this hero business doesn't stop pretty soon. local fans will be taking up a sub scription to get loving cup for Gene and present a bunch of forget me-nots to Skipper Eley.
 Ut was just a little visit, said talk the Hoey case over when any body else was within earshot, but they joined in an interesting flaming bee afterwards.
 "McCann was asked what kind of a team he expected to have this year and he replied that the team that finished ahead of Bridgeport would win the pennant and that the Me chanics are liable to make a runaway race of it. Will I have any pitchers, besides Waller, with nerve enough to pitch a pennant-deciding game? II will or I will saw their arms off. I expect to have a great pitching staff.
 That Hoey case? We'll, I guess have said enough about that. Tho Hoey deal was dirty piece of busi- ness-not the kind the big majority of Connecticut league fans want to see go through'.''

Tho czar's Snuffbox,

Car Paul's snuffbox was as sacred as the imperial crown itself. No one was allowed to touch it. Kapioff wa gered that he would take pinch out of it. One morning he walked up to the table which stood near the bed on which the czar still reclined and bold ly took from 1t the majestic snuff box. Opening it noisily, he inserted his fingers. and. while Paul I. was watching him in stupefaction at such audacity, he sniffed up the fragrant powder with evident satisfaction.

Nelson was the hero of England even in his own time but not ap- parently of the court Samuel Rogers recounts a conversation with him which appears in the life of the poet by F. Ellis Roberts. 'I heard him once during dinner" says Rogers. ut ter many bitter complaints (which Lady Hamilton vainly attempted to check) of the way he had been treated at court that forenoon-the queen had not condescended to take the slightest notice of him. In truth. Nelson was hated at court; they were jealous of him." But then it must be remem- bered that Rogers was renowned as particularly i'll natured gossip.
