CHAPTER XVI.
An Unexpected Finale.

cafe au lait, for two" said Sir
Archibald tersely, to his valet early
that morning.
Very good, Sir Archibald" And
the man, a thin. ntial-appearing
fellow. who had been in the others
service many years, bowed out of the
room. Sometimes his master and the
secretary breakfasted, American fash
ion, Ell famille, as it were in the bright
apartment down. stairs; on other oc-
casions, when they expected to put in
a busy morning with correspondence or
papers for certain learned societies,
they slipped their coffee and ate their
rolls and eggs, continental-wise, in Sir
Archibald's cozy sitting-room. In this
last contingency, however, the Eng
lishman usually lounged, clad in a
sober Scotch dressing gown, pipe In
hand, near his table. Now the valet
noted his master was engaged in put
ting the finishing touches to his toilet.
He adjusted with strong, precise fin
gers his neck-tie and set squarely in
the middle a small horseshoe of rubies
and diamonds.
AS the door closed and the valet dis
appeared, Sir Archibald permitted, pri-
vately, an expression of considerable
feeling to sweep his usually stolid
countenance. He walked once or twice
back and forth across the thick car
pet, hands in pockets, his tread, ag-
gressive, heavy. At that moment, his
eyes, full, old -looking-for man not
yet much past thirty!-eXpressed in
dubitable signs of annoyance, if not an
ger, which faded as a discreet knock
announced the Wallets return. The lat
ter set down n tray quietly, removed
the Chinese checkerboard, and laid
the table noiselessly arranged the
dishes, and. after Il last low customary
inquiry, IF there was anything fur
ther?" effected once more his unob-
trusive exit.
Sir Archibald, although he had or
dered coffee for two, drank it alone;
ne appeared not at all sedulous about
his secretary's share of the beverage
getting luke-warm or cold. He even
helped himself from both cups, and ate
one of the eggs designed for Caglioni.
Having partaken, he rose, regarded his
watch, then the closed door leading in
to his secretary's room. AS he did so,
his brow darkened and he stepped out
upon his veranda.
The French windows opening from
Bruce's room to command felicitous
prospect, mellow in the soft morning
glow, were fastened, and Bamford's
glance, swerving. passed to the fringe
of forest, where it fingered. \ big
muscular fist closed; he brought ii
down softly upon his open palm. Gag
liOni's continued absence tied his en-
ployer's hands and Sir Archibald
lOnged to use them.
What had happened during the
night? Had anything? He stood I'M

ANIMAL KINGDOM IN COURT.
Cases Of a Fish, a Monkey, Hens, an
EAGLE and q Goose.

EaSlo ano n IoOSo.
Animals of various kinds have been
having their day in court, says Case
and Comment. That no fish were on
the ark, and that therefore the Great
ure is not an animal, was the position
taken by a st. Louis city attorney in
case against a pedler accused Of cruel
ty to animals.
The case was dismissed over the
emphatic protest of Judge Pollard, who
argued that the dictionary defined a
fish as an animal The pedler was
charged with advertising his fish by
displaying a live animal from a string
on his cart, that it's Topping might at
tract the eyes of prospective purchas-
ers.
There can be no doubt, however,
that monkey is an animal of high de-
gree. A five pound simian slumbered
peacefully in his cage at the Kentucky
state fair grounds a few months ago,
while four attorneys fought a wordy
whether state fair visitors should be
permitted to amuse themselves by
throwing balls at the monkey.
To champion his cause and see that
Justice was done to little Jocko, half
dozen Louisville club women were
present. After an hour and half or
testimony and legal oratory about OAR
win, monkey prostration, nervous
fatigue" and other things that the or
dinary layman would not believe a
monkey was heir to, the magistrate
tl,n
fine of s25 for letting the visitors at
the fair make his monkey a target for
rubber balls.
That ii is against the Ohio law to
hold bald eagles in captivity was the
ruling received from Attorney General
Hogan by Elmer Fawcett, a Logan
county farmer. Fawcett had one OF
the birds, and the attorney general or
dered it's release. The eagle was tax
Ell after a fierce fight several weeks
ago. Fawcett discovered 1t with its
talons fastened in the woolly back OF
lamb, seized a pitchfork and captured
the bird after a lively struggle The
attorney general holds that a native
eagle cannot be held captive in Ohio.
The much disputed question lis a
hen a bird?" which the treasury Of
ficials passed up as too complex Tor
them has been presented to the new
court of customs appeals. The present
form of the problem Is this: IF birds
eggs are free under the tariff and hens
eggs are taxed cents a dozen, why
isn't a hen a bird?" An importer who
paid the duty wants to know.
Also there is a goose case now pend
ing. In a certain barnyard an agent
of a North Carolina S. P. c. A. discov-
cred a goose whose webbed feet were
nailed to a board as one stage In the
process to make its liver become pate
de foie gras.

consider the case, and the president.
who had been in consultation with en-
cylopedists. doctors, lawyers, humani-
tarians and others, insisted that In ad,
dition to the bodily injury there was
also the question of mental anguish on
the part of the goose. Accordingly the
society voted to hale the goose's owner

pale, but the overpowering sense OF
complete physical collapse had passed
away. His muscles became suddenly
tense; a light, clear, if somewhat reck-
less. shone from his eyes. About ia
step toward the stairway, an object on
the floor caught his glance: caused
him to pause yet a moment.
A book He stopped for it, gazed at
the volume, then, holding it carelessly
he walked out into the hall and as
cended the broad stairs. At the top he
paused to look around him; the upper
hall was dark, but his rapid glances
pierced the shadows. He did not wait
long. With light, elastic step, he NOV
ed noiselessly toward the corridor
leading to his own room.
To reach it, he was obliged to pass
Sir Archibalds apartments. Approach
ing them, he seemed to hold himself
with figure very alert; as If waiting,
expecting something sudden to hap
pen-a door to open-Sir Archibald,
or his secretary, or both to appear alb
ruptly on the threshold, then and
there to hurl themselves upon him, to
end at once a silent contest, stren-
uous, secret strife. But nothing of
the kind occurred; the chambers be-
fore him continued as hushed as the
grave.
A slightly puzzled expression crossed
Bruces features as he paused at his
own threshold. Sir Archibald was not
one to hesitate, once sure of his
ground. Could it be that now?-Cag-
lioni? A sudden light broke upon the
young man. The secretary might not
yet have returned to the Wood man
sion. Was the theory tenable? Had
the Portuguese been more injured than
he, Bruce, had expected. Had aught
else happened to detain him? What
would the next few hours show?
The gods seemed to have granted
him a respite. For how long? He
must not lull himself with false secur-
ity: vain hopes. A moments eXulta-
tion became succeeded by clearer af-
terthoughts. His fingers rested on a
single key in one Of his pockets; me-
chanically he drew it forth. Unlocking
the door, he stepped in. The light was
still burning as he had left it; the
dressing gown lay where he had
thrown it; nothing seemed disturbed.
No one had been in there; of course
not; he had hardly expected it.
He turned again the key in his
door: then felt once more in his pock-
ct for the key to the other door, the
one opening on the upper balcony.
He could not find it. He hastily
turned everything out of his pockets
on to a table-a match box. small
knife, a cigarette case, his watch,
money-but, not that for which he
sought. 1t was gone. Where? Again
shadows seemed surrounding him,
deeper, darker than before. He shook
his shoulders, as if to shake gather
ing of ominous forces from him.
A key? 1t was a little thing, deri-
sively he told himself, hardly to be seen,
let alone to be noticed, even if any one
should chance upon finding 1t some
where without, which was most un-
likely.
Bruce began to undress. His clothes
were decidedly the worse for wear;
fortunately, Mr.. Wood had instructed
the chauffeur to bring up from the inn
his new guests handbag. 1t would,
ere long, be there; the young man
awaited its coming with interest.

W. the closing scenes Of Judah's his
tory. The message comes to an
exile priest that reveals the certain doom
of the nation. The political downfall OF
Judah was the spiritual salvation of the
Hebrew people. The exile removed them
from the influence of the temple of Jeru-
salem with its priesthood and elaborate
ritual. The belief that the nation was
Indispensable to God gave them a false
conception of their position, power and
prestige that tended to reduce the
ritualistic worship of the temple to for
malism, that led them into idolatry, which
was the cause of the exile.
When they found themselves uprooted
from their native land. with the annih!la-
ton of the state and the destruction of
their temple their faith in Jehovah as a
local deity disappeared, and the truth
that He was the Supreme Ruler Of the
universe whom every soul must worship
was revealed. Amid the suferings. sor
