"DIXIE."

'ular. even In the North. 1t was sung
in the Northern States during the Civil
War as much. probably, as 1t was in the
South. The Northerner who was n child
In the COS remembers "DiXie" as part of
his youthful repertoire along with John
Browns Body" Rally Round the Flag.
Tramp, Tramp, Tramp" "Tenting on the
Old Camp Ground" and Marching

such thing as a sectional air In this coun-
try; a song that is popular in one section
inevitably spreads until it takes In the
whole land. 1t Is true that the South
erners do not yet take kindly to March

sometimes use them with other words,
Tho prejudice against them is disappear

Northerners can well afford to lik. and

Later. to his utter amazement, he was
informed that the HargreaVe auto had
some time since been called and its
owner taken home Some one had
taken his place.!
His first sensation was impotent
fury against Jones, who had permitted
them to play with fire. He flung out
Of the mansion unceremoniously, COM
mandeered cab, and few out to RiT-
erdale. And when Jones came to the
door he was staggering with sleep.

manded Jim roughly. Where's Flor
ence?"
isn't she with your cried Jones,
making an effort to dispel the drowsi-
ness. what time is it?" suddenly.
Midnight! Where is she?"
Midnight? I've been drugged!"
Without a word Jones staggered OF
to the kitchens, Jim at his heels.
There was always hot water, and
within five minutes Jones had drunk
two cups of raw strong coffee,
"Drugged:" he murmured. Some
one in the house! I'll attend to that
later. Now, the chauffeur"
But the chauffeur swore on his oath
that he had left Jim and Florence on
the steps Of the porte cochere.
"Get in!" said Jones to Norton, now
fully alive. He could not get it out Of
his head that some one in the house
had drugged him.
The events which followed we're to
both Jones and Norton something like
a series Of nightmares. In the new
home Of the Princess Parlova bomb
exploded and fire followed the explo-
sion. From pleasure to terror is only
a step. The widest confusion imag-
inable ensued. Most Of the guests
were Of the opinion that some an
archist had attempted to blow up the
house Of the rich Pole. Jones and
Norton arrived Just as the smoke be-
gan to pour out from the windows. A
crowd had already collected.
Then Jim overheard woman mas
auerader say: ''The fool made the
bomb too strong. She is in the room
on the second floor. The game is up
If she suffocates-' The voice
traiIed off and the woman became lost
in the crowd. But it was enough for
the reporter, who pushed his way
roughly through the excited mas
uueraders and entered the house. The
rescue was one Of the most exciting
to be found in the newspaper files OF
the day.
So Braine in his effort to scare e7'
erybodv from the house had over
reached himself once more.

hundred yards away. The current
leisurely brought the object into full
view. 1t was a young woman with
just power enough to keep herself
afoat. The golden head reused some
thing in him stronger than. curiosity.
It might be!
Braine proceeded to move the launch
In the direction of the girl. It was
this movement that turned the report
er's gaze. He, too, now saw the wom-
al in the water and wondered how
she had come there. When Braine
reached the girl and pulled her into
the launch Jim saw her face plainly.
He flew from mis- vantage point,
found skiff, and started after Braine.
"By the Lord Harry!" murmured
the rogue. well, they can talk OF

So the two Of them Joined their

Of zest as they did so. On her part,
the countess was always suspicious of

could tell how much he knew. But
Of Florence she was reasonably cef-

her and take her away on the George

Meantime Jim got up and began to
wander about in search Of Florence.
Braine played a clever game that
night. He and the Russian, still dom
inoed like Norton and Florence, Or
dered the Hargreave auto, by num-
Der, entered it and were driven up to
the porte cochere Of the Hargreaye
house. The two alighted, the chauf-
feur sent the car toward the garage,
and Braine and his companion ran
lightly down the path to the street
where the cab which had followed
picked them up.
It grew more and more evident to
Jim that something untoward had
taken place. He could not find Flor
ence anywhere, in the alcoves, in the
