Arcadia
ooh, see," nodded Anthea, very intent
upon her plating.
"But there is something MORE" said
Bellew
"Oh?- said Anthea.
"Shall tell your"
"If-it is-very interesting"
well. then in this delightful land there
is a CASTLE grim, ernbattled, and very
strong
"A castle?" said Anthea, glancing up
suddenly.
"The Castle of Hearts Desire
"Oh!' said she, and gave her all attention
to her plating again.
"And So" continued Bellew, II am
waiting very patiently, until in her
own good time she who rules within
shall open the gate to me, or-bid me go
away
Into Bellows voice crept a thrill no one
had ever heard there before; he leaned
nearer to her, and his dreamy eyes were
keen now and eager. And she, though she
sawnothing of all this yet, being woman
knew it was there, of course, and for that
very reason looked resolutelv away
Wherefore, once again, Bellew heartily
wished that sunbonnets had never been in
vented.
60 there was silence while Anthea stared
away across the golden cornfields, yet
saw nothing of them, and Bellew looked
upon those slender, capable fingers that
had faltered in their plating and stopped.
And thus, upon the silence there broke a
sudden voice shrill with interest
go on, Uncle Porges! What about the
dragons? Oh, please 60 on! There's al
ways dragons in 'chanted castles, you
know, to guard the lovely Princess. Aren't
you going to have any dragons that
hiss, you know. that spit out smoke an
flames? Oh, do please have a dragon!'
And Small Porges appeared from the other
side of the hay, flushed and eager.
Certainly, my Porges,' nodded Bellew,
drawing the small figure down beside him,
Il was forgetting the dragons; but there
they are, with scaly backs, and iron claws,
splitting out sparks and flames just as self
respecting dragons should, and roaring
away like thunder
@Ah," exclaimed Small Porges, nesting
closer to Bellew, and reaching out hand
to Aunty Anthea, that's fine Let's have
plenty of dragons"
"Do you think a-er-dozen would be e
Porges?'
ooh, yes! But s'pose the beautiful Prin
open the door, what would you do if you w
wandering knight who was waiting patient
open. what would you do them"
"Shin up tree, my Porges."
ooh, but that wouldn't be bit right
Aunty?"

@Do you think a-er-dozen would be enough, my
Porges?'
ooh, yes! But s'pose the beautiful Princess didn't
open the door, what would you do if you were really
wandering knight who waiting patiently for it to

"Shln up tree, my Porges."
ooh, but that wouldn't be a bit right-would it,
Aunty?7
AOf course not!' laughed Anthea at would be most
unknightike and very undignfied."
"'Sides," added Small Porges, "you couldn't climb
tree in your arrnor, you know"
"Then I'd make an awful good try at it, nodded
Belew.
aNo," said Small Porges, shaking his head, shall I
tell you what you ought to do? WE'LL then, you'd draw
your two-edged sword, an dress your shied,-like
Gareth the Kitchen Knave did he always dressing
his Shield an SO Lancelot,-an you d fight all those
dragons an kill them, an cut their heads off,"
and then what would happen9' inquired Beew.
@Why, then the lovely Princess would open the gate
an marry you of course an live happy after, an
all would be revelry an JOY"
"Ahl" sighed Bellew "If she'd do that think I'd
fight all the dragons that ever roared-and kill them
But, supposng she-er-wouldn't open the gate?'
"Why, then said Small Porges, wrinklng his brow
why, then you have to storm the CASTLE of course
an break open the gate, an run off with the Prn-
cess on your charger-if she very beautiful you
know"
"A most excellent idea, my Porges If | should hap
pen to find myself in like circumstances I'll surely take
your advice"
Now, as he spoke, Beew glanced at Anthea and she
at him. And straightway she blushed, and then she
laughed and then she bushed again. and still blushing
rose to her feet, and turned-to find Cassils within
yard of them.
AL, Miss Anthea" said he, lifting his hat "I sent
1eorgy to hnd you; but it seems that he forgot to
mention that was waiting"
Il m awful sorry, Mr.. Cassilis; but Uncle Porges
was telling us bout dragons, you know, Small Porges
fastened to explain.

smile "Ah, indeed Dragons should be interesting

LOOK FOR THE
WOMAN" TRUE IN
STOLYP|N CASE
Slain Premier Had Opposed Mar
rage of Suspected Official
to Divorce.

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 2-The
inquiry into the assassination of Pre-
mier Stolypin at Kiev, with particular
reference to the revolutionary and po-
lice elements involved, Is being con-
Quoted personally by the minister OF
justice, M. Chtcheglovitoff. Already
there are Indications of many ramih-
cations and completely on the part of
prominent officials. Greater sensations
than those so far published are prom
ised. Vice. Director of the Department
of Police Verigin is under strong sus-
picion by the authorities. who hold
that he is in a measure responsible for
the outrage.
The protection of the emperor and
| empress and the cabinet ministers at
Kiev formed the subject of de-
partmental discord. Governor-General
Trepoff demanded general oversight Of
the protective measures, but was over
ridden by the director of the depart
ment of police, M. Kurloff. Kurloff,
Verigin, Lieutenant-Colone Spirido-
witch, Of the secret service police, and
Colonel Kliabko, chief of the secret po-
lice, organized the protection. which
cost 100000.
Informer-spy Assigned to Premier.
While Verigin n Kurioff were at
Kiev on the eve of the emperor's visit
Dmitry Bogroff was consulted and
given the responsible position of
guarding the premier, as he promised
to track the supposititious terrorists,
Nina Alexandrovna and Nicholas ia
covlivitch. It is incomprehensible to
those engaged in the inquiry how a
subordinate, as Verigin was, dared to
disregard Stolypin's circular regarding
revolutionary spies and allow Bogroff,
a spy and an informer, to guard the
premier, without even setting other
agents to watch him.
Verigin was Kurloff's right-hand mar
and maintained close relations with
Kurloff's family. kurloff, against Sto-
lypin's most determined opposition,
married the divorced wife of q young
ad1utant. Stolypin made the matter
one of personal confidence to the en-
peror, but Kurloff's influential sup
porters at. the court overruled the
premier.
Patriotism Forbids Publicity.
The NoVoe Vremya says tnat only a
mere fraction of Minister Chtcheglo-
vjtoffs findings can ever be published.
Patriotic reasons forbid the fun ex-
| posure of the %scandalous criminal in
| trigues in high government circles
leading to ~Stolypin's sacrifice.
Only General Trepoff's prompt meas
| Tres in throwing a Gordon about the
| theatre and checking the work of the
| secret police. says the Vremya, pre-
vented the escape of Bogroff from the
| hands of justice. Colonel Kuliabko
| made a strenuous but unsuccessful eff
| fort to have his prisoner kept at the
secret police headquarters instead of
in the fortress. Had Trepoff surren-
dered Bogroff to Kuliabko, the paper
declares. few details of the crime would
ever have become known.
Bogroff's parents, upon receiving the
news of the crime. addressed a tele-
gram to Nine. Stolypin, expressing alb
horrence at their sons act.
Eighty men and thirty women, pro-
fessed liberals. are under arrest at
kiev.

The Chamber of Commerce committee for the location of new industries, of which M. p. Messer is chairman. post poned it's meeting yesterday in view of the special meeting of the business or ganizations yesterday morning relative 10 the revenue bill.
 The committee will meet next week. probably, to discuss further the plan of the industrial bureau. According to a statement from MT. Messer the revenue bIll has already caused some hesitation on the part of prospective manufacturers because of the provision which bases the tax valuation on the amount of insur- ance carried. Mir. Messer will go with the delegation to Montgomery this morning,
 we have numerous inquiries about the tax assessments said MT. Messer from the people who contemplate locating in the Birmingham district. They regard this point as one of the most essential features for consideration, because the tax valua tions always count for great deal, especially with new industries. we have already felt the influence of the revenue bill in the real estate business, and we can understand just to what ex- tent it would suspend proposed invest mentS.

c. H. Billingsley of Depart ment of Agriculture h.
 vestigates Cotton Seed

C. H. Billingsley of Montgomery spent yesterday in Birmingham making an in vestigation of cotton seed shipments with view of preventing the importation into new territory of boil weevil infected seed.
 Mr Billngsley is food, drug and feed clerk in the Alabama state department of agriculture acting under a new law just passed by the legislature and which goes into effect April 9, 1911.
 Under the new law the state depart ment of agriculture is given the power to exclude from sale in Alabama any impure or inferior commercial feedstufrs. The law is similar to that n most of the other states of the union. MT. Bill kingsley has charge of the enforcement of this law.
 To regulate the sale of commercial feed stuffs it is required that all packages of fered for sale in the state be inspected and labeled with tag furnished by the department.
 iHeretO1Ore Alabama mas been tne Jumping ground for large quantities of in- ferior goods of this class said MT. Bill kingsley yesterday.
 "Car loads of stuff refused in other states have often been reloaded or re- billed and sent into Alabama where we had no way of preventing its sale or regulation. The new law, which becomes effective April 9, is one that Alabama has needed for some time and 1t should be of great benefit to the people of the state who have to buy feed for stock, hogs, chickens or cattle
 T am in Birmingham at this time to look into the matter of cotton seed inn portation. The cotton boil weevil is getting into Alabama. It is spreading rapidly enough, but 1t could be spread more rapidly and over much larger area through careless shipment of seed from infested territory

There was not any inti- nation of i'll feeling in either of the notes and no cause can be assigned for the sudden resignation of two of the oldest. from a point of service, em- ployes in the department here.
 Mir. Hughes was only recently pro- noted to superintendent of finances receiving herewith & substantial in- crease in remuneration. The position of Mrs. Elliott as foreman of directory was recently abolished by Judge Montgom- cry, for which he assigned no reason except that the duties were not suffi- cient for a separate position. Mrs. El- liott subsequently assumed charge of the stamp window and has been engaged in that and other work since that time.
 Judge Montgomery said yesterday: 'I am not in a position to discuss ths | resignation of the two employees except to announce the bare facts to the public. MT.
