could do him in pinch like this.
His father wouldn't approve. the
old man wouldn't approve. but he had
sent him here to learn the ways OF
the old world. A Pickering smile

CHAPTER XVIII.
Such STUFF as Dreams.

Such Stuff as Dreams.
Dan was in his room at the hotel.
He woke and then slept again. Moth
ing seemed strange to him-nothing
seemed real. 1t was three o. clock in
the morning, the rumble OF Paris was
dull: 1t did not disturb him, for he
seemed without the body and to have
grown giantlike. and to fill the room.
He had sense Of suffocation and the
need to break through the windows
and to es cape into ether.
The e1trnnce Of Poniotowsky's two
friends was part with the unreal
naturalness. One was a Roumanian,
the other both spoke
fluent English. DAN, his eyes fixed on
the foreign faces, only half saw them:
they blurred. their voices were small
and far away. Finally he said:
"All right, all right. can shoot
well enough; this kind of thing isn't
our custom. you know--I'd as soon kill
him one way as another, as matter

Of the burden Of sense and be free.
And after they had left. he remained
in his window till dawn. 1t came soon,
midsummer dawn, singularly tender
morning in his heart His mind
worked with great rapidity. He had
made his will In the States. He
wished he could have left everything

LITTLE BUSINESS FOR COURT
Grand Jurors Drawn to PISS on Mat
thew Carlyie's Case.

Chittenden county court reconvened
Monday afternoon at two o'clock but
there was little business to transact.
Judge Miles Is holding strictly to the rule
that cases must he ready for hearing in
the order in which they are reached and
a number of attorneys who have pleaded
with tho court for more time have thus
been forced to either be ready for hearing
at any time or take some steps to settle
the cases or have them continued. The
business before the court has therefore
been slim thus far.
Sheriff Allen Monday drew the grand
jurors who will serve on the special
grand jury for the purpose, 1t Is said, of
indicting Matthew Carlyle for the murder
or two coored girls. The grand jury is
as follows:
A. Lancor. Bolton.

Five hundred troops left Lichfield

The most serious outbreak since the

Staffordshire, where several thousand
strikers, accompanied by hundreds Of
women. raided a colliery in which 80
men were working.
The house of lords passed the sec

Reports from the mining centers
point to the probability of large ma

the men, in favor of resumption Of
work
When II is remembered that $4,000
men voted against commencing the
strike, little doubt is felt that a ma
jority will now vote in favor Of its
termination. especially as the view is
gathering force among the miners
that the mine owners are trying to
prolong the struggle in order to bleed

them powerless to continue the strug-
