with a parting if futile admonition to
Cameron to think no more about 1t, "

My route lay again through the min

warm with the ap
'proach of noon, and there was scant
shade on the high-road between our
two houses. In the wood, however,
the air was gratefully cool, and ]

deeply and with enjoyment the boskl

my Goddess of Youth.
While on the verge Of this self-re-
proach my spirits suddenly lifted, fol-
the steam whistle having died away
in the distance and the feathered
choirsters have relapsed into a
pleased chirp that merely accented
the stiffness, there broke all at once
on the mute calm Of the woodland the
silver sweetness of girls singing,
Clear and resonant 1t rang through the
forest aisles; voice I knew beyond

quite patiently, that while you saw
1t complete at three O'Clock, the cut
had already been made, but the cut
portion had not been removed. In
other words, the cutting having been
aeftly done with thin, sharp knife, 1t
was perfectly feasible to leave the por-
trait apparently intact, though with

that the appearance was feigned fol

While Governor Glasscock, who Wis

tie a few hours after the clash, would
make no statement. it is now general
ly admitted that his proclamation,
which is commanding the disarma-
ment Of the guards and strikers, has
not been observed except where the
militia has been encampcd. The
strike area is too large to permit the
roops to patrol the whole field.
Unless there is a speedy improve
