CHAPTER XII.

In Which kezlah Breaks the News.
1t was nearly five o'clock, gray dawn
of what was to be a clear, beautiful
summer morning, when Keziah softly
lifted the latch and entered the par
sonage. All night she had been busy
at the Hammond tavern. Busy with
the doctor and the undertaken, who
had been called from his bed by young
Higgins; busy with Grace, soothing
her, comforting her as best she could.
and petting her as a mother might
pet a stricken child. The poor girl
was on the verge of prostration, and
from hysterical spasms Of sobs and
weeping passed to stretches of silent,
dry-eyed agony which were harder to
witness and much more to be feared.
1T is all my fault" she repeated
over and over again. "All my fault

We'll, doctor?" she asked anxious1y.
The stout, gray-haired old physician
he had practiced in Trumet for near
ly thirty years-shook his head.
Not a single chance" he whispered.
He may possibly live till morning,
but I doubt if he lasts an hour. It's
his heart. I've expected it at any
time
Captain Nat was standing at the
door of the bedroom. His face was
drawn and he had seemingly grown
years older since noon.
He's come to himself, doc" he
whispered. He don't remember how
it happened or anything. And he
wants us all. Why, why, Keziah! are
you here? You can come in, too. 1
know dad likes you and I guess
Wait a minute; I'll ask him. He
stepped back into the bedroom YES"
he nodded, returning, you come, too.
He wants you"
The little room, Captain Eben's own,
was more like a shippers cabin than
a chamber on land. In the corner
stood the captains big boots and his
oilskins hung about them. His Sun
day cane was there also. And on the
bureau was a worn, heavy Bible.

''how's she headed? How are you feel

The old face on the pillow smiled

Halloo. Oracle, girl! Well, your old

Grace glanced fearfully at his face.
When he spoke her name she shrank
back, as If she feared what he might
say. But he only smiled as, with the
tears streaming down her face, she
bent over and kissed him.
There! there!" he protested you
mustn't cry. What are. you cryin'
about me for? I'm fit and ready for

wandered from his son to Mrs. Coffin.
For an instant he seemed puzzled.
Then he said:

But he did not have to wait until
noon At six o'clock, through the dew
soaked grass of the yard, came the
Higgins boy For the first time in his
short life he had been awake all night
and he moved slowly.
The housekeeper opened the door.

grimy hand.

MADRID, June 2s.-The police of
Barcelona are investigating the story
of Esteban Gutierrez, a stonemason,
who declare that he was forced to
wall up a young girl in a building
near the city.
Gutierrez says that two we'll
dressed men called at his home with
a motor car and asked him to accom-
pany them a short distance into the
country to carry out some urgent re-
pairs.
When they were outside the city
the men seized Gutierrez, bound and
blindfolded him. A few minutes later
the car stopped in front Of a lonely
house.
The mason says he was led Inside
and ordered to wall up a narrow
aperture. He heard someone sob
bling, and. tearing the bandage from
his eyes, he saw a young girl, bound
with ropes and wedged in the aper-
ture
His captors ordered him to build
wall so as TO inclose the unfortunate
girl. and when Gutierrez refused they
threatened him with revolvers He
says that he was forced TO comply
with their commands, after which the
car conveyed him to a wood several
miles away
Before leaving him in the woods the
men gave Gutierrez $50 in silver, and
warned him not to speak of the Incl
dent. He was found by a woodman
and he went at once to the police.

accordance with tho rules applying
to the common herd.
The only consideration shown these
hitherto privileged personages was
that It was left to the "Bundesrat"
Council Of the Empire) to select the
officials that are to collect the taxes
from the members OF the sovereign
houses.
There is every reason to believe
that the Reichstag as a whole will
adopt the measure recommended by
the committee, and when this hap
pens. the Bundesrat has no choice but
to accept the principle Of sovereign
Princes liability to taxation or to
refuse to accept the law.
Appealed in Empires Name.
The latter alternative however
seems entirely out OF the question,
since It was in the name Of the Bun
desrat and the sovereign Princes that
the Imperial Government appealed to
the patriotism of the people and en-
phasized the absolute necessity Of the
law.
1t would be impossible to refuse
to accept the law merely because it
compels the Princes to pay their
share of the extraordinary military
expenses. At any rate. the Imperial
Government has rendered the SOW
ereign Princes a very poor service
by maintaining the theory Of their
freedom from taxation.

Gowns of Lady Marlborough and

Special Gable to The American.

WINDSOR, June 2s.-Not even the
royalty, the winning jockeys or the
best thoroughbreds attracted the at
tention during Ascot Week that was
accorded two Southern bellies, Lady
Marlborough, former Louisville, KY,
girl, and Mrs. Cecil Bingham, whose
superb gowns were the cynosure of all
eyes through the gay period.
Lady Marlborough, who was Miss
Grace Carr, a sister Of Mrs. Bingham,
would be worth fortune to any Pa
risian modiste, the English society
people are saying, because Of her abil-
ity in showing off her clothes and
hats to fascinating advantage.
During the meet she was frequent
" invited to the royal box, while Mrs.
Bingham was personally compliment
ed by the Queen.
Her costume was entirely Of black,
the MORE skirt killed in wide kits
and all around pannier draperies in
voluminous pillows reaching from

bodice was tight-f1tting, with only a
touch of lace, and there was a single
red rose at the waist.
She carried her usual pagoda para

months ago, but not taken up until
race week. She lunched with an in
teresting party including Lady Ala
stair 1nnesker (Anne Breese, of New
York;. who wore black charmeuse
draped about the feet, the upper part
of the gown being entirely of fine lace.
Mrs. Bingham is now seen every
where with Mrs. George Keppel, the
two having become fast friends dur
ing the past few months.
Lady Marlborough was the greatest

gown was of oyster satin, draped with
rare old black lace in points reaching
below the knees, with a large emerald

Her hat was of the bonnet variety
and weighted with a dozen or more

A great sigh of relief is waited out

This liberality of view was scarcely

sincerest respect for the opinion Of
his spouse in such unhappy affairs.
