numbers and brute force could
not prevail against Roman die

routed With great slaughter and
their stronghold captured. This
Victory was caesar's greatest
military triumph, but It was a.

The Judges Grandson.

In that bare upper room they had
shared. the Judge, crushed and broken.
watched beside the bed on which the
dead man lay: unconscious OF the
flight OF time he sat with his head
bowed In his hands, having scarcely
altered his position since he begged
those who. carried Mahany up the
narrow stairs to leave him alone with
his friend.
He was living over the past. He
recalled his first meeting with Ma
haffy in the stuffy cabin of the small
river packet from which they had
later gone ashore at Pleasantville:
he thanked God that IL had been
given him TO see beneath Solomon's
forbidding exterior and into that
starved heart He reviewed each
phase OF the almost insensible growth
OF their intimacy; he remembered
Mahaffy's fine true loyalty at the
time OF his arrest--he thought OF Da-
mon and Pythias-Mahaffy had reach
ed the heights OF a sublime devotion;
he could only feel ennobled that he
had inspired It,
At last the dusk of twilight invaded
the room He lighted the candles on
the chimneypiece, then he resumed
his seat and his former attitude. Sud
denly he became aware OF small
hand that was resting on his arm
and glanced up; Hannibal had stolen
quietly into the room. The boy point
ed TO the still figure on the bed
Judge what makes Mr.. Mahaffy lie
so quiet--is he dead?" he asked In
Whisper
Eyes, dear lad" began the judge In
shaking voice as he drew Hannibal
toward him, your friend and mine is
dead-we have lost him" He lifted
the boy into his lap. and Hannibal
pressed tear-stained face against
the Judges shoulder. How did you
get here?" the Judge questioned
gently.
