Amelia Osborne and her husband. A
week later they sail for Brussels. On
board ship Osborne can see nothing
but Mrs. Crawley. At Brussels they
attend a ball given by the Duchess of
Richmond, at which Becky meets the
Marquis of Steyne, and where they
receive notice of the terrible Battle
of Waterloo. At this announcement
all is excitement and the officers are
soon on their way to the scene OF ac-
ton, where Lieutenant Osborne is
killed and Captain Dobbin, who has
always loved Mrs. Osborne, imme-
diately offers, on his return to Brus-
sells, his respectful assistance to the
young widow. A month after the bat
tie Becky turns to the ensnaring OF
Lord Steyne, who lays siege to the
overthrow of Captain Crawley in order
that he may continue his alliance with
his wife. Crawley gets heavily in debt
at the gaming tables OF Lord Steyne,
is unable to pay and the INSCRIPTIONS
lord throws him into prison, thereby
giving himself and Becky a clear field
to enjoy themselves in each others
company.
Reel No. 3-Rawson writes a note
from prison appealing to his wife to
raise money to secure his release. She
replies falsely that she is sick in bed
and will implore Lord Steyne to show
Rawdon l%eniency, carrying out her de-
ception still further by signing herself
Yours affectinately, Becky" Upon re-
ceipt of the note Rawdon sends to his
brother for assistance who secures his
release. The balance is well worked
out and gives the story in a most COM
plete form.

Astor's Last Meal.

1T was the gayest night of the trip
among the diners. We had made great
time and the probability was the trip
would be a record breaker, Orders had
been issued Sunday to make the din

regardless of expense, and the orders
were carried out.

when the passengers strolled in. Mr..
Ismay sat at a table a few feet away
from the table of Mr.. and Mrs. Aston.
He was in a corner.
"The Astor table was to the right
and the captains table was in the
center. At Mr.. Astor's table DR..

greatest moving picture ever made.
Reel No. Amelia Sedley, accom-
panied by her chum, Miss Becky
Sharp, returns from boarding school.
Becky is a natural born firt, who
makes a conquest with almost every
man she meets. Bashful Joseph Sedley
falls desperately in love with her and
becomes her devoted slave. He takes
her to Vauxhall Gardens, where he
makes an ass of himself, is very much
ashamed of his conduct, refuses to
keep his appointment with Becky the
next day, sailing for Scotland to es-
cape her wiles. Becky is very much
piqued at the loss of so desirable a
catch as Joseph. and manifests her
chagrin in a display of temper to
which she gives vent by tearing up
Joseph's note. Amelia, with her gen
tie sweetness, hands Becky a letter
from Sir Pitt Crawley, which she has
received from a messenger, requesting
her to repair to Queen Crawley's at
once. She makes hasty preparations
to leave without delay. The next
morning bright and early she takes
her departure, to enter Sir Pitts
household as governess, where she
meets Rawdon Crawley, the youngest
son of Sir Pitt, who quickly becomes
a captive of her pretty face and
charms, bringing upon himself the dis
pleasure of the whole Pitt family. Also
on account of his i~nfatuation for
Becky he is left out of his aunt's will.
He, notwithstanding this. proposes to
Becky and marries her,

PROTEST AGAINST SLAUGHTER
OF BIRDS.

Editor News:
I see the state of Illinois has lost
this year $GOOO,O00, caused by the raw
ages of insect pests. So far as we
know the loss in Mississippi
from the same cause has not
been estimated, but to one in touch
with conditions in the rural districts
the aspect is anything but pleasant.
Perhaps we are too busy developing
the latent resources of our country
and fishing for emigration by advertis-
ing the resources of "our rich cut-oyer
lands to give any especial attention
to the question of adequate laws look
ing to the protection of birds, but to
my mind this is one of the real issues
before the people.
The frightful loss sustained by both
Illinois and Mississippi is traceable to
one cause viz. the destruction of birds,
most priceless gift from God to man.
Win the race never profit by past eX
periences?
Once England was reduced to dan
gerously near a famine by having her
birds slaughtered, but she learned her
lesson and today the man who would
destroy a bird in England is looked
upon as a criminal and menace to
society.
