of day in circumnavigating the earth,
time lines of different countries, great
est depths of the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans. steamboat, cable and telegraph

CHAPTER XIV.
The Tale Had to Be Told.

And while the morning papers were UNI
folded by millions of English men and
women, and the details of the mysterious
crime discussed over eggs and bacon and
buttered toast, Philip de Mountford. the
newly found heir presumptive to the earl
dom of Radcliffe, was lying in the gloomy
mortuary chamber of q London police
court, whittier he had been conveyed in
the same cab whose four narrow walls
jealously guarded the secret OF the
tragedy which had been enacted within
their precincts.
Lord Radcliffe had been aroused at 10
o'clock the previous night by representa-
tives of the police who came to break the
news to him. It was not late and the
old man was not yet in bed. He had
opened the front door Of his house him
self, his servants-he explained curtly-
were spending their evening more agree
ably elsewhere.
The house-even to the police officers
appeared lonely and gloomy in the ex-
IRENE, and the figure Of the old man, who
should have been surrounded by every
luxury that rank and wealth can give.
looked singularly pathetic as he stood in
his own doorway. evidently unprotected
and uncared for, and suspiciousiy de-

trail OF Theodore Roosevelt IN Michigan
to-day. replying 70 the direct attacks on
the Taft speakers made by Colonel Roose-

both Harlan and Bede BY name and EN-

ono at Detroit and one at Saginaw, the
speakers said to-right, showed plainly
that Michigan was not only for Taft but
enthusiastically so.
Mr.. Harlan In attacking the third term

claimed:

been educational. IL has revealed two
things az least one is the power Of the
Roosevelt imagination; the other 10 the

imbued us with pity, for the man who,

facts in the case must feel the same pity
that We do.
After declaring that Roosevelt had de-
llberately fnlshed IN his attack on them,
Mr.. Bede said

spasn Over

Lamar has outwardly settled dowI
to its natural peaceful state again
after the exhibition of frenzy OF
Tuesday morning which wound W
the revival meetings of the past
five weeks. Dan Shannon is gone
and it is only fair to him to say
he is an artist in his line for he
succeeded in working some of the
people up to the final act of max
ing bonfire in the streets OF
some broken down pool tables for
which he had paid double price. AT
the fire his wife took pictures every
time Dan got in the limelight most
prominently. These are now be-
ing used in the daily press OF the
country to make a SPLENDID ad-
vertisement for the wandering Dan.
but how about Lamar? Does any
one think that these scenes of
violence will be of any benefit to
our city when spread broadcast over
the country and the reports dis
torted by an expert advertising
manager as they already have been.
The meetings from the standpoint
of attendance, number of alleged
converts and especially salary rails
ed for Dan were highly successful.
but some of the methods used to
promote this result will bring no
credit to the great cause OF chris
tianity, and the intoxication Of that
last day will leave a hang taste
in the mouth Of the community for
many months. There are many fea-
lures OF this revival that are best
passed over in silenceAespecially
the attacks ON the character of many
OF our best citizens. Those. who
have known them many years. think
even more highly of them now that
they have shown themselves too
big to notice these ISLANDERS and
thus avoided tanning the flames Of
resentment that had been aroused
in many citizens. The least said
about these meetings the quicker
Lamar will recover from the effects.

The marion" dredge. purchased

its work from the headgate to Buff
falo creek, a distance of SO miles.
This work was commenced in

tinuously from that time until the
last few weeks. AS a result of
this work a large volume of water
