CHAPTER v.
Melanie's Dreams.

Midnight and the relaxation of slum-
Der could subtract nothing from the
high-browed dignity of the club Off
fcials, and the message that was wait
ing for Mr.. Van Cam was delivered
in the most correct manner. "Mr.
Hambleton sends word to Mr.. Van
Camp that he has gone away on the
Jeanne DArc. Mr.. Hambleton NAV
not be back for some time, and re-
quests Mr., Van Camp to look after the
Sea Gull"
VERY we'll, thank you," replied
Aleck, rather absent-mindedly. He was
unable to see, Immediately, just what
change in his own plans this sudden
turn Of Jim's would cause; and he was
for the moment too deeply preoccu.
pied with his own personal affairs to
speculate much about 1t. His thoughts
went back to the events of the eve
ming, recalled the picture of his Di-
ana and her teasing ways, and dwelt
especially upon the honest, friendly,
wholly bewitching look that had flown
to him at the end Of the evening. Abb
surd as his own attempt at a declara.
ton had been, he somehow felt that
he himself was not absurd In Melanie's
eyes, though he was far from certain
whether she was inclined to marry
him.

BALKAN WAR BEGAN IN 1868
Conflict of Races Started Long Ago,
Seems Destined Now to Be Fought
TO Finish.

|
An Italian newspaper reminds US
usefully that the Balkan war began
centuries ago. In the state archives
at Vienna is the declaration Of war
sent by Sultan Mehemet w. to EN-.
peror Leopold in 1852. BE 1t known
to you. the heir of the Caesars, to the
king of Poland. and to your allies
and omnipotent emperor of the east
and west, is on the point of
invading your paltry territories. We
shall bring 100000 soldiers, on horse
and foot. to crush you utterly and lay
waste all your domains. We command
you to await our coming in our resi-
dence in Vienna. where 1t is our in
tention to have you beheaded."
But the war was even then an old
story. The delightful writer who con
tributes The Office Window to the
London Daily Chronicle tells us that
while searching through some Of the
earliest newspapers printed his eye
was continually diverted to news let
ters from the continent giving ac-
counts Of the unholy wal which Tur-
key was waging on Hungary and Aus
tria- Almost at random he copies the
following from the Nerves of Septem-
Der II, 1888, a grim reminder that the
Turk has remained unchanged and
Interchangeable for these $50 years at
least:
Vienna, Sept. Elm Austria every
Fifth Man is to bear Armes; and they
hope to raise 20, 1000 Men upon that
Levy to C the Frontiers. At this
instant comes fresh Intelligence of 49,
900 Turks, and as many Tartars, pass
ing the Waegh, and that they carry
all before them with Fire and Sword"
And again: 1--WE hear that upon the
third instant the Enemy has beaten
our Foot by the River Waegh, and
Possessed himself of the narrow Pas
sages between the Hills, where he has
burnt divers Town and Villages, and
Massacred many Thousands of People,
striking off the heads of some, putting
others in Chains and cutting
to pieces Young and Old without Dis
tinction or Mercy"
