 "Now yo' all go way from me- Sam" cried Peavy. "Ab ain got no time to Drojec' roun' wid yo'! An ain well. Ah tells yo'r'
 "Sit back on yo' place" repeated Sam.
 The sharp voice of Kelvin came from the automobile.
 Leave him there, Sam. We don't want him. He will be worse than use less to us."
 "All right. sub. Ah'll leave him heah then. Jes' one minute"
 There was the wall as of lost soul from Peavy as Sam. gripping his pow erful fingers around Peavy's neck bore him to the floor. He knelt over him for just a moment. while Peavy's legs struggled convulsively. Then he jumped up by the chauffeur, and Peavy lay still where Sam had left him.
 Kelvin uttered no word of protest to Sam. but he turned to Herbert with a return of that chill feeling which had twice before oppressed him this night.
 "A bad Omen." he said.
 Herbert laughed lightly.

CHAPTER XXIV.

V VIZ had scarcely finished speak. Fl tug when a bell in some stee- B pie near them tolled out "A \ long. strident note. then an other; then it began rapid changing. A distant factory whistle joined it. Both men sprang to their feet. their hands gripping the window sill. and leaned far out. Another whistle. two. dozen. broke in with their deafening noise. It seemed that of a sudden every bell and every whistle in the city had been given frantic life. Into the pandemonium of sounds there was suddenly injected new and more sin ister one. the sharp crack of rifles and then measured volley after volley. Shrieks and groans and shrill screa ms of anguish arose into the midnight air and in each human cry. whether of an ger or agony. there was damming ac cusa tion of Kelvin. though one that fell on deaf ears so far as pity or remorse was concerned.
 "Well." said he. with sigh. '1t has come"

 'I regret to leave it. even for a day." he declared. "Th,s is the moment have longed for all my life. but Pell- man will be able to manage things here. 1 could not be everywhere. and l have good generals at every station. l know. Think. Kelvin, what this means. if Bluggs threats are right at this identical me ment this same bell has broken loose in every city in the United States
 The telephone bell behind them rang sharply. Sam sprang 10 answer it.
 "All right, suh.' said he and turned to Kelvin. 'Everything is ready. They ah waiting foh yO'."
 Tell them we will be right down, directed Kelvin.
 As they turned to go roseate glow mounted the sky iehind the dome of the capitol. They paused moment and watched it turn to carmine.
 "Fire!" announced Kelvin grimly. "1 had counted this as part of the cost. hut I hope the destruction may not be great"

 Upon the cross street at the end of the block the people quickly gave way but out from an intersecting avenue two blocks beyond. a fanatical mob shouting and cursing. turned and bore straight toward them. Cans could be seen on shoulders and torches were f1ounted. From the forward automo- bile there came sharp cracking. a succession of staccato snaps like the ripping of shingles from roof The running mob stopped. 1t fell back 1t scattered like chaff. and in an in stant more the autos. keeping evenly abreast. bumped and jerked over a pavement strewn with Sickeningly soft impediments. So through tue city and out into the country they swept to roads where they could go hut two abreast and sometimes but single file But always Kelvin was in the center, and never was there any interference. A half mile northeast of the city the headlights f1ared on detachment iD unmistakabla khaki on both sides of the road, and these saluted as the i'm perial escort swept by and cheered and, closing in behind. marched at double quick.
 The ringing of that first deep toned knell in Washington had been simui- taneous with the clang of the same grim death watch from east to west and from north to south. George Blaggs own hand had pressed the wireless key which had sent the mes sage flashing in every direction across startled space. Eager fanatics had received 1t and swarmed an ill clad unkempt. underfed horde to avenge the follies of society upon itself. The horror of it was that they did Lot at tack the soldiery direct. as Blagg had planned. but the better nOurished citi- zens. for Blagg's original secret or gan.zation. bound together with some idea of order. with some sense of phi ianthropic motive. with some plan of warfare against the imperial army" was now augmented by wild. disor dered herd of the criminally inclined. who. seeing that law and order were swept away. turned to mad license.

The authorities were worse than. powerless. An all seeing eye sweeping that night across the North American continent would have found the iand reddened by these many pyres. which lighted a .redness still more terrible. for not only men and women were put to death fin this maniacal orgie of .reprisc!. but little children were slaughtered ;.s they ran shrieking from warm beds. No night in all the history of the world had paralleled this: no blood lust was ever so hideously satiated! no carnage was ever so widespread. for this one smeared a continent with blood.

Interest in the speakership Of the
house Is becoming general. While Mr..
Parks has little to say with reference
to his possible candidacy and evil
IDENTIFY only stands In a receptive
mood. 1t is evident from reports re-
ceived here that other candidates are
active, particularly A. II. Conner of
Bonner county. 1t has been reported
here that Mr.. Conner will soon come
south In the interest Of himself and
the speakership.
c, S. French, OF New Plymouth.

that Peter G. Johnston, of Blackfoot
