SUES TO RECOVER
 THE SUM OF $1,62o.3e.
A. p. Turner Claims His Mother Had This Amount When She Married Late Rev. Robert A. Turner of Lebanon.

Papers in a suit brought by Arthur P. Turner, administrator of the estate of Mary A. Turner of Lebanon, were filed with the clerk of the superior court On Friday, in which MT. Turner, who is the adopted son of Mary A. Turner, a wife of the late Rev. Robert E. Turner, brings suit against Thusa Gidman Turner to recover the sum of $1,620.36 from her as executor of the will of Robert A. Turner.
 This is money which the plaintiff claims his mother had when she mar ried Rev. Robert A. Turner in August, 1875, and which he claims MT. Turner took and converted to his own use. Mary A. Turner died in March, 1906, and after that the Rev. MT. Turner was twice married, his second wife dying, and Thusa Gidman Turner is now his widow, since his death in Oc :. tober, 1911. He was pastor of the Bap- tist church at Lebanon,
 Arthur P. Turner claims in his suit that he has made claim upon Mrs. Thusa Gidman Turner as executor for the sum stated, which she has disai : lowed, and he now brings suit.

the flames while trying to escape. Thus the man who was found first might have been the owner of the knife, which might have been dropped as he started out. A fact which would indi- cate that the first body was that of Carey is that the body had remarkably good teeth, as did Carey. The body of the man found on Friday had poorer teeth, and is believed to be that of Soldier" John Donohue, who was also reported missing at the time of the fire. It Is believed that these two wers the only ones to lose their lives in the fire, as none others are known to be missing.

are a c%uriously pious folk; when one
of them grows rich he employs the
major part OF his fortune in building
a temple-or in some such work. This
particular gentleman-a very wealthy
merchant-chose to give half of what
he had to the restoration of the Pool
of Flame to the Buddha from which it
was originally stolen. But he. too,
was afraid. He's superstitious about
the stone-believes it bad luck to
touch it so long as 1t remains away
from its Buddha. So he came to us.

He ceased to speak abruptly, for the
Pool of Flame lay naked, a binding
marvel, in the hollow of his palm.
O'Rourke heard him gasp and was
conscious OF his fastened respiration,
Watching the man %intently, he la

ORourke was not M to resist it's al
lure. Four bells saw him lounging at
the rail below the bridge, staring hun
grily over toward the land. 1t was in
his mind that another twelve hours
or SO would see him relieved of his
trust; and as the time drew nigh i'm.
patience burned holly within him; he
had become full weary of the Pool of
Flame and was anxious to be free of
the thing, to have its chapter in his
history closed forever.
Far over the water a white and
flashing light lifted up and caught his
eye, a nameless beacon bright against
the darkness at the base of the Ara.
kan hills, guardian of the perils of
those shallow seas. And simultane.
ously he became conscious of a pres.
ence at his elbow; as he turned sharp.
ly the English girl addressed him in
a voice sw%eet-toned and quiet.
What is that light, If you please,
Colonel O'Rourke?"
Faith, that l can't say, Miss Pyn.

Her eyes flashed a laugh upon him
in the gloom. Then you know my
name?"
Even as yourself knew mine.
'Twould be strange otherwise, with
our ships company so small"
But l." she returned, animated, "am
such an insignificant person-while
you are the Colonel O'Rourke."
I'VE do me an honor I'm not deserv'
ing, Miss Pynsent, but it's proud !
am entirely that a humble soldier OF
fortune should be known to ye be

"Oh, I've grown quite weary of your
fame, Colonel O'Rourke," she coun'
tered with a trace Of laughing impu'
dence. Hardly anything has inter
ested Monsieur De Hyeres, these pas
few days, save anecdotes Of your ex
ploits."
"'Tis kind of him, to be sure.
must cultivate his acquaintance and
learn from him to know meself,
see."
If she detected the irony she over
looked or failed to understand it
