Pins and bolts form important ele,

the stock-the sizes are all clearly
marked-and by means of the adjust

them down the bolt onc may be sufi-
cient; If not, tighten up a little and

out a thread slightly damaged and

Cars ReaIstered In Britain.

The total number OF motor cars reg.
stored in England, Scotland, Ireland,
md Wales until November, 1913, was
?45,912, as compared with over 1000
100 motor cars registered in the Uni.
ed States. As the population Of Great
Britain is $4,000, 900 and that of the
United States 9o,00o.000, 1t will be
cen that the British are using less
han half as many motor cars per unit

/ battle flags from the Invalides, the
most important pictures and antique
sculptures from the Louvre, the great
er part of the gold and silver from the
Bank Of France, and, last but by nc
means least, the crown and jewels OF
France.
These trains were dispatched to
Brest, and at the same time telegram
was directed to the admiral command.
J ing the French iron-clad feet in the
Baltic to send an armored cruiser to
Brest with all haste possible, there to
await further orders, but to be fully
prepared in any event to take on
board certain goods designated in
cipher. This we knew in a general
way, though Speed understood that
Lorient was to be the port Of depar-
ture.
The plan, then, was simple; but, for
an equally simple reason, 1t miscar-
ried In the following manner: On the
4th of September the treasure-laden
trains had left Paris for Brest. On
the 9Th the Hirondelle steamed out to-
wards the fleet with the news from Sc
dan and the orders for the detachment
Of cruiser to receive the crown
jewels. On the 9Th the news and the
orders were signaled to the flagship;
but the God of battles unclaimed a
tempest which countermanded the or
der and hurled the ironclads into outer
darkness.
So, for days and days. the treasure
laden trains must have stood helpless
in the station at Brest, awaiting the
cruiser that did not come.
Speed and already knew the secret
orders sent. The treasures, including
the crown diamonds, were to be stored
in the citadel, and an armored cruiser
was to lie off the arsenal with banked
fires, ready to receive the treasures at
the first signal and steam to the
French fortified port of Saigon in Co
chin China, by a course already deter
mined.
Why on earth those orders had been
changed so that the cruiser was to lie
off Groix l could not imagine, unless
some plot had been discovered in Lo-
rient which had made it advisable to
shift the location of the treasures for
the third time.
Pondering there at the tent door,
amid my heap Of musty newspapers, I
looked out into the late, gray after
noon and saw the maids and men Of
Paradise passing and repassing across
the bridge.
A few moments later drums began
to roll from the square. Speed, pass
ing, called out to me that the con-
scripts were leaving for Lorient; so 1
walked down to the bridge, where the
crowd had gathered and where a tall
gendarme stood, his blue-and-white
uniform distinct in the early evening
light.

hectic lieutenant from Lorient.

had serious doubts OF the prisoners

The negro had pleaded not guilty

convincing, and the judge was sur
prised when the jury brought in YER
dict Of guilty. His doubts vanished
when, after reminding the negro that
he had been tried by jury Of IL men.
ETC., he said: "It is my duty to warn
you that your days on earth are num-
bered. and it behoowes you to avail
yourself Of the little remnant of time
allotted to you to make peace with
God"
Just there the negro broke in with
the exclamation. All done dat already,

But T."

for an avenue Of escape. Then he

The poacher backed into the strag-

turn, follow and report at the arsenal

The poacher backed out to the rear
Of the rank, turned. on his heel, and
strode away towards the coast,
clinched fists swinging by his side.
There were not many names on the
roll, and the,call was quickly finished.
And now the infantry drummers raised
their sticks high in the air, there was
sharp click, a crash, and the square
echoed.

crowd pressed on into the dusk. Far
up the darkening road the white colt

drum-roll softened to a distant hum

said, indifferently He came up, my
gun on his ragged shoulder.
''You go with your class?" asked.
mo, go to the forest" he said,
hoarsely. You shall hear from me"
I nodded.
"Are you content?" he demanded,
lingering.
The creature wanted sympathy,
though he did not know it. / gave him
my hand and told him he was a brave
man; and he went away, noiselessly,
leaving me musing by the river wall.
After a long while-or it may only
have been few minutes-the square
began to fill again with the first groups
Of women, children, and old men who
had escorted the departing conscripts
a little way on their march to Lorient.
Long tables were improvised in the
square, piled up with bread, sardines,
puddings, hams and cakes. Casks of
cider, propped on skids, dotted the out
skirts of the bowling-green.
I turned away across the bridge out
into the dark road. Long before
came to the smoky, silent camp I
heard the monotonous roaring of my
lions, pacing their shadowy dens.
