dramatic silence ensued. Bordenave rapidly re-
gained control of himself He to his feet. An as
tonshng change had come over him: the transforma-
ton of who is publicly declared innocent OF hor
rble crime So after ALL the fate of those hundred and
eighty thousand Frenchmen, and those SIX hundred
pieces of artillery, not upon his shoulders! He had
set free not the King of Prussia, but some joker! He
had not drawn upon his soul the deep curse OF his I'M
happy France! Guilty in intent, true; but merciful
Providence had saved him from the actual treachery
too frightful to contemplate.
Suddenly he thought of Dagobert, and he shuddered.
What jest had been played upon him, to be sure He
imagined the Counts fury. Who had told HIM the
pad face the blaze of his eyes, the CLEAN of his teeth
Carried away by this thought, he mutered audbly:

"Sience you bony curl cried the sneerer.
The epthet brought Bordenave back to the situa-
tion Dagobert's revenge? Alas! it would be glorious,
it would be terrible; but he, Corneille Bordenave,
would live it. The others would be there

Bordenave recalled them, his heart sank deeper and
deeper, and he groaned aloud. Two minutes ago he
had smiled affectonately at death: now he longed to
live with all his soul Cod what would he not give to
be of this hornets nest into which he had purposey
wandered?
THE Commandant at last broke the silence, showing
by his words that if his own face never exhibited
his emotions yet he could read the faces of Others He
dismissed the troopers; then he said:
Il do not imagine that you quite so ready to de?'
He stroked his beard STILL watching the prisoner steadily
Bordenave shrugged his shoulders.
"Do you play chess?'
Bordenave's eyes opened very wide He stared from
the speaker to the chessboard on the table.
Il? Why-yes,' he answered
Il teach it to my pupils Yes, have been called a
good player he replied, much astonshed but speaking
without hesitation.

Pardeu! he does not know that have not been beaten

With eager hands Fritz placed the chessmen in posi-
ton; and his fellow watcher evinced like interest.
The excitement of the unusual contest just what
the latter needed to pate his boredom. AS for
Fritz he had taken liking almost, to the emotional
Bordenave, whom he ptied. Not yet had the cam
pagn turned his heart to stone; and he found himself
praying that this woebegone, haggard prisoner might
get out of the net.

their kings pawn to kings fourth square. For five

The Prussian took cigar from the package and the

He adopted waiting game, what is called the French

caution. He perceived the stealthily yelled at

The boy officer drew deep breath

again he flung himself upon the horsehair sofa.
THE third and final contest began Both were
in deadly earnest. The Prussian sat with his long

GAVE TIGER" A WARM TIME
Took His Booze Away From Him,
Shot Up His Buggy and Sent
Him Back Home.

It is reported that Fred Terry, a
Terrell county negro who has the
reputation of being a tiger" was
given a reception he did not count
on at a negro church over in Sum
ter county, where he went on a re-
cent Sunday to dispense liquid re-
freshments while the preacher ad-
ministered spiritual food.
The leading members of the
church, it seems, did not approve of
the presence of the tiger, and took
his stock of twelve quarts of red-eye
away from him, shot his buggy full
of holes and sent him back to Terrell
county in hurry.
Terry is an old hand at the bust
ness, having been tried in the supe-
rior court here for violating the pro-
hibition law.

WILL VOTE ON REPEAL OF
LOCAL SCHOOL TAX LAW

There are between 500 and 900 OF
these. and about half of them are
on the petition for an election. AS
it will be a general and not prl-
mary election both white and negro
voters who are registered will be en-
titled to vote.
Local taxation for schools in Ter
rell has been levied three years, and
during that time the educational IN
terests of the county have taken a
long stride forward. The action OF
the school board last year in raising
the tax to the limit allowed by law
and establishing three or four hlgh
schools in the county and lowering
the curriculum of the other schools
caused a great deal of dissatlsfac-
ton. and the petition which has just
been filed with Ordinary Cheatham
for an election is the result OF
movement which was begun at that
time.

SHAM MODESTY.
Mr.. Childs Says 1t Is Causing the
Downfall of Many Young People.

Editor Dawson News: Modesty is
one of the most charming virtues in
female character, but assumed or
sham modesty is, to my mind, one of
the most disgusting things in human
nature. l believe, though, it has
become a common thing in all ranks
of society; in fact, it is very difficult
to tell the genuine from the false.
Sham modesty cannot endure temp
tation or trial This sham or assum-
ed modesty is causing the downfall
of many of our young women and
young men. This assumed mOdesty
has ruined many of the youths be-
cause the parents have failed to
teach them in early life what it was
necessary for them to be taught.
Nowadays people glory in extrava-
giant dressing, which finally leads
to their doom in a burning hell. The
temper of society seems to warrant
me in saying that persons, espe-
cially men, may be as wicked as they
like, provided they are smart enough
to go in secret manner, or under
cover of darkness at night, and yet
marry one of the best young ladies
or the community Thus false mod
esty in society says, Young man, go
ahead; be as full of the devil as you
please, for a time, then soften down
and marry a good woman" Young
ladies, young men, let me beg of you
to cast aside this false modesty and
be your real selves. Young man, let
me ask you at all times not to tempt
the young lady with whom you go,
bearing in mind that she is a sister
of some one like yourself, and ex-
hibit towards her the respect that
you would toward your sister or
mother. Young ladies, l ask you to
demand that the young man that
seeks your company live up to the
above standard; if he does not, in
no wise accept his company, and then
you will have no cause to regret it in
after life. R. l. CHILDS
