 Hampton, you may not be gentle man. said Luftdon, ''but by gad you are man. and here is my hand on tt!' He had played a mans part so I clasped it.
 And so they went down the path, leaving me not greatly relishing my triumph, for I had to tell Mistress Lucy all that had happened.
 The scarlet of my 1ady's riding coat as she gaIlOped up the tree covered road attracted my attention quick ened my pace, and we arrived at the steps of the hall at the same instant. She was alone, for she had evidently chosen to ride unaccompanfed.
 I stood silent before her with that curious dumbness generally expert ence when first entering her presence, while she drew rein sharply. She was a little thing compared to me-indeed, small compared even to the average woman, but in one sense she was the biggest thing I had ever confronted. l was almost afraid of herl I who fear ed nothing else. What she thought of me was of little moment to her.
 It was Mistress Lucy's regular habit to take morning gallop every day. It was that usual custom that caused her to look so fresh and young and beau tiful, that put the color in her cheek and the sparkle in her eye
 She nodded carelessly, yet kindly, to me It was her habit, that careless kindness. When she was a little girl and had been a great boy we had played together familiarly, but that was long since over. Then she looked about for groom. The steps that led to the terrace were deserted Sir Geof- frey of late had grown slack in the administration of affairs on account of his troubles, and no one was present. Mistress Lucy stared at me, drowning

 She loosed her little foot from the sffrrup and thrust it out toward me I am nothing of a horseman- I was very early sent to sea, and I have a sailors awkwardness with horses Naturally, I did not know how lady should be dismounted. stepped over to her, seized her about the waist with both hands, lifted her bodily from the saddle and set her down gently on the gravel. She looked at me very queerly and gave a faint shriek as her weight came upon my arms. Indeed, have no doubt that held her tightly.
 'sI dare say there is not a man 5 among my fathers friends OF mine who could have done that, Master Hampdon.'' said she smiling a little and looking flushed and excited

 There was a certain fattery to me in that request If I had not shown her how strong I was in all probability she would have thrown me the bridle and, with a nod toward the stables to indicate her wishes, would have left me without a word.
 Have you seen my father this morn ingg' she asked as I paused before her.
 As luck would have it, while she spoke a sleepy groom came round the house. I flung the reins to him, bade him take the horse away and turned to my lady.

 There was something in my voice and manner, great stupid fool that l was, that instantly apprised her that something was wrong. With one swift step she was by my side.

reporter for The Farmer today was unable to secure direct affirmation from his sources of information 1t Is intimated that placing of the bomb was done with the intention of ex- ploding at a time when Kleinberger was often known to enter his shop, and it was expected to kill So well arranged was the plot that the noise would attract all from the station platforms, and escape could be made cn the. S:15 train during the height of the confusion. A time fuse is thought to have, been cut.
 The belief that death was intended is borne out by the fact that minute fragm ments of scrap metal were evil dent1y combined with the explosive as is shown by the condition of the in jured mems bodies at St. Vincent's s hospital where both Warren Lewis and James Carmody are said to be slowly recovering.
 It was today learned that govern ment detectives sent here to ascertain whether counterfeit money was being manufactured in the vicinity, as well as to learn the connection of local Italians with a worldwide death society, were unable to detect trace of any men wanted and left early this morning.

MEASURING REPORTS
 FROM POPE PLUS x
Ccontinued from Page one.)

CContinued from Page One.) withstanding the efforts of his own cook. Steffano Inehiostro, who, came with him from Venice, Prof. March iafava said after his morning visit that he considered the unchanged con ditions on the whole as favorable for the patient.
 The only specific apprehension is heart weakness. Dr. Anmici, who spent the night at the Pope's bedside, rested sufficiently we'll. His teunpera- ture is now a little above 97.
 Dr. AmInici denied reports that the Pope is suffering from nephritis and reiterated that the whole trouble is a relapse from his attack. of influenza. In all the churches of Rome this morning spuecial prayers were offered for the recovery of the Pope, and the congregations recited with the clergy the 'Oremus Pri Pontefice Nostro.''
 Prof.. Marchiafava, this afternoon, gave confirmation of the continuance of improvement in the Pope's condi- ton. He said his O n1y fear was that complication might arise more espe- ciaIlys through the lack of sufficient nourishment taken by his patient. Efforts Will be made, therefore, to administer artificial nourishment.
 The improvement in the Pontiff's health is proved by the fact that pr. Andra Ammici left the vatican, to- day, to go to a hospital to perform an operation on the daughter of the DOT ter of the house where the sisters of the Pope reside. The girl was recom- mended to his care by the relatives of the Pope.
 Dr. Ammici said, today, that he hopes by next week Plus x will be convalescent. An entirely contrary opinion, however, is expressed by some of those immediately surround ing the Pope who depict the situa- ton as grave. They assert that as the result of an examination made by specialists the presence of from 10 to 12 degrees of a1bumen was proved.
 The sisters and nieces of the Pope remained with him three hours this morning. Just before II o'clock Car dina1 Merry Del Val, the papal secre- tary of state entered the bed cham Der and the Pope, who said in reply to the Cardinals inquiry that he felt relieved, expressed regret that he would be unable to see the pilgrims who had come from Venice.
 A party of 800 Polish pilgrims ar rived, today, and went to the vati- can. As they were not allowed to see the Pope they marched around the piazza in procession chanting pray CTS and singing hymns in their own language. Many of the pilgrims were peasants wearing their national cos tunes but there were also members of the old Polish nobility and even some Polish princes. They were in formed of the latest news of the Pope's health
