CINCE the sinking of the Titanic. a
y year ago, icebergs have been
studied as never before, and
great amount of curious knowledge
about these frozen monsters of the
deep has been accumulated, with the
result of increasing the safety Of
ocean navigation.
Just as living being procIaims it's
presence, even when it can not be
seen, by telltale sounds and vibra-
tons and by emanations which are
perceptible at surprising distances to
olfactory senses as delicate as those
possessed by some of the lower ami
mails, so icebergs betray themselves,
in the darkness of the night, or the
far more dangerous obsCurity of a
fog, by their effect upon the tempera-
ture of the air and the water.
A remarkable mechanical sense
organ, called the micro thermometer,
which is simply a thermometer of
great delicacy and special cOnstruc-
ton, dragged through the water by
ship, is now employed to measure the
changing temperatures Of the water
!n the vicinity of icebergs, and some
unexpected facts have been devcl-
oped by its use.
A great steamship provided with
micro thermometers lowered into the
water is like a hunted deer shifting
the air with its sensitive nostrils and
detecting its enemies afar off.

the most wonderful man in the world.
You sha'n't hurt him! Nobody shall

Burke was beaming joyously. At
last-a long last!-his finesse had
won the victory over this woman's
subtleties.

Mary had herself well in hand again,
vastly ashamed of the short period Of
self betrayal caused by the official $
artitice against her heart. As she lis
tened to the Inspectors assurances,
the hooking expression Of her face
was not encouraging to that astute

He picked up an envelope, which
had been lying on the desk. and drew
out the single sheet of paper it con-
tanned. Mary watched him, wonder
ing much more than her expression
revealed over this new development.
Then, as she listened, quick interest
touched her features to a new life. In
her eyes leaped emotions to make or

TO-DAY,S INSTALIlMENT.

My husband shot a burglar" she
said languidly. And then her inso-
Ience reached its elimination in a
query Of her own. Was his naue
Griggs?" 1t was done with splendid
art, with a splendid mastery of her
own emotions, for. even as she spoke
the words, she was remembering those
shuddertng seconds when she had
stood. only a few hours ago, gazing
down at the inert bulk that had been

For once, Burke showed a certain
deliCacy. When he had finished the
reading, he said nothing for a long
minute-only sat with his cunning
eyes on the face of the woman who
was immObile there before him. And
as he looked on her in her slender ele-
gance of form and gentlewomaniy
lOveliness of face, ii loveliness intelli-
gent and refined beyond that of most
women, he felt borne in on his con
sciousness the fact that here was one
to be respected. He fought against
the impression. 1t was to him pre-
posterous, for she was out Of that
underworld against which he was
TuthleSsly at war. Yet, he could not
altogether overcome his instinct to-
ward a half-reyerent admiration,
s. And. as the letter proved,
she had been innocent at the outset.
She had been the victim Of a mis-
taken justice. made outcast by the
law she had never wronged.
His mood of respect was inevitable,
since he had some sensibilities though
they were coarsened, and they sensed
vaguely the maelstrOm Of emotions
that now swirled in the girls breast.

Burke took refuge, as his wont was
when too hard pressed, in a mighty
below.
The constitution don't go here" 1t
was the best he could do, and il
shamed him, for he knew it's weak
ness. Again, wrath surged in him.
and it surged high. He welcomed
the advent Of Cassidy, who came hur-
rying in with a grin Of satisfaction
on his stolid face.
Say, Chief" the detective said with
animation, in response to Burke's
glance of inquiry, we've got Carson"
Mary's face fell, though the change
Of expression was almost impercepu-
BILE. Only Demarest a student Of
much experience, observed the fleeing
display of repTessed emotion. When
the Inspector took thought to look at
her. she was as impassive as before.
Yet he was minded to try another
ruse in his desire to defeat the intel
ligenCe of this woman. To this end,
he asked Glider and the District At
tOrney to withdraw, while he should
have a private conversation with the
prisoner As she listened to his re-
quest, Mary smiled again in Sphinx
like fashion. and there was still on
her lips an expression that caused the
official a pang Of doubt, when, at last,
the two We're left alone together, and
he darted a surreptitiOus glance to-
ward her Nevertheless he pressed
on his device valiantly.
Now" he said. with a marked soft
ening of manner, Pm going to be

Are you?" Mary's tone was nom
committal
yes" Burke declared, heartily.
And l mean it. Give up the truth
about young Glider. I know he shot
Griggs. Of course. But I'm not taking
any stock in that burglar story-not a
little bit. No court would, either.
What was really back Of the killing"
Burke's eyes narrowed cunningly.
Was he jealous Of Griggs? Wen,
that's what he might do then. He's
always been d worthless young cuo.

now, why did he shoot Eddie Griggs?''

Mary Stood Rebellious.

Mary cast off pretense finally, and
spoke Indignantly.
That's for you to find out" she
said, Sneering.
Burke pressed the button on the
desk, and, when the doorman appear
ed ordered that the prisoner be re-
turned to her cell
But Mary stood rebellious and
spoke with a resumption Of her Cyni-
cal sCorn.
Il suppose" she said, with a glance
of contempt toward Demarest, that
it's useless for me to claim my con-
stituuonal rights, and demand to see
a lawyer"
Burke, too, had cast off pretense at
last.
Yes" he agreed, with an evil
smirk, you've guessed il right, the
first time"
Mary spoke to the District Attor-
ney.
Il believe" she said with a new
dignity Of bearing, that such is my
constitutional right, is it not, Mr.
, Demarest?"
The lawyer sought no evasion Of
, the Issue. For that matter, he was
coming to have an increasing respect,
even admiration, for this young wom-
an, who endured insult and ignOminy
with spirit so sturdy, and met strata
gem with other stratagem better de
vised. So, now, he made his answer
with frank honesty.
1T is your constitutional right,
Miss Turner"
Mary turned her clear eyes on the
Inspector, and awaited from that Off
Cial a reply that was not fOrthCom-
ing. Truth to tell Burke was far
from comfortable under that sur
vey.

81, 1913, was caught up by his good
angel October Is, 1913, and carried
away to the arms of Him who said

not dead; the nurseryman Just trans-
planted him from Gods family nurs-
cry here on earth to his permanent or
chard above, where he will, unmolest-

forever. This was sore bereavement
to Brother and Sister Ganoway at this
time for they hoped to see their dear
and only child live to move the world
around 5im in the direction of God
Almighty and to be great source of
comfort to the in life's darkest
hours. But believing that God does
all things we'll, they bow in humble
submission to his will. And now they
cannot look into the baby crib and see
the smiling face of their baby boy, but
must lift their eyes to the windows of
heaven and behold him there, beckon-
ing them onward toward the city of
God. Flowers that bloom beautiful
in the morning, in the evening are cut
down and wither. Why this is we do
not understand now, but will under
stand better by and by. Brother and
Sister Ganoway have the deepest sym
pathy Of not only the people of the
Stickleyville charge, where he has been
serving as pastor, but also the whole
Church, and they deeply appreciate
the sympathy of their people and the
Church, and express much gratitude
to those around them who ministered
unto them in their sorrow and Attic
tion. May Gods Holy Spirit comfort
them in this dark hour and still lead
them on. Rev. J. T.. Graham, in

SEQUAcHEE MAN BUILDS
THIEF.PR00F CRIB

r. G. Goodier, young farmer,
who lives about two miles south OF
here on the Jasper pike, has just fin,
ished building what is considered a
thief proof corn crib, especially so to
any disciples of Ham that have a
thieving instinct.
Mr.. Goodier recently pulled down
an old barn that that had tragedy
enacted in it, for, some thirty years
ago, Mrs. Myers, during fit of de-
spondency, procured rope and at
taching it to beam. hung herself
thereto as relief from her troubles.
When she was cut down the end of the
rope was never removed, and finally
was boarded over in some way aud
forgotten. Mr.. 4oodier in tearing
down the old barn found the beam
with the rope fastened around it, and
the tragedy of years ago was revived.
He made this beam the centre sill of
his corn crib, and is of the opinion
that the fact of it's association with a
melancholy tragedy will act as de-
terent to meddlesome night prowlers
of the two-legged variety, especially
those of an extra brunette complexion
Few in this country know of the
tragedy in connection with the old
barn, and Mr., Goodier's wrecking of
it and discovery of the dust-laden rope
and inquiries about it, brought back
to the recollection of the older people
the sad circumstance.
