LAMB Is GREAT FOX CHASER
RAISED With Litter of Pups, Kentucky
Animal Develops Strange Char
acteristic.

Cynthiana, Ky.-Former Assessor
John lngles sold lamb to ]. D. Evans
the other day because it insisted on
chasing foxes and wouldn't stay at
nome. The lambs mother early in its
lie d1sowned it and Mr.. IngIes gave
1t to a dog which was raising a litter
OF hound pups. The lamb sucked at
the breast of the dog, grew up with
the pups and waxed strong and feet
of limb.
1t rejoiced in the sport of the dogs
and withal became quite gay young
thing. 1t ran rabbits to its hearts
content, outstripping the dogs, but not
knowing what to do with the rabbit
when caught. The lamb would butt
hogs to beat the band, and when the
dogs freed a coon it would stand at
the foot of the tree and try to bark.
Finally it got to chasing foxes and
staying away from home so much Mr..
Ingles thought the safest plan was to
sell it.

Their side of the ravine much more i'm
posing than the one on the near side,
where the slope was gradual.
This path, and even the bridge ITSELF
were almost wholly unlighted. They
were seldom used at seldom
used at any time. But it was by this
route the Judge elected to go into
town; not for the pleasure of the walk,
as was very apparent from the ex-
treme depression of his manner, but
from some inward necessity which
drove him on, against his wishes, pos.
sibly against his secret misgivings.
He had met no one in his short walk
down the lane, but for all that he
paused before entering the path Just
mentioned, to glance back and see If
he were being watched or followed
When satisfied that he was not he
looked up from the solitary waste
where he stood, to the cherries heav-
ems and sighed; then forward into the
mass Of impenetrable shadow that he
must yet traverse and shuddered as
many another had shuddered ere be-
ginning this walk. For it was near the
end of this path, in full sight of the
bridge he must cross, that his friend,
Algernon Etheridge. had been set upon
and murdered so many years before;
and the shadow of this ancient crime
still fingered over the spot
Determined not to stop or to cast
one faltering look to right or left, he
hurried on with his eyes fixed upon
the ground and every nerve braced to
resist the influence of the place and
its undying memories. But with the
striking of his foot against the boards
of the bridge nature was too much
for him, and his resolve vanished. In
stead Of fastening on he stopped, and,
having stopped, paused long enough to
take in all the features Of the scene
and any changes which time might
have wrought. He even forced his
shrinking eyes to turn and gaze upon
the exact spot where his beloved Al
gernon had been found, with his sight
less eyes turned to the sky.
This latter place, singular in that It
lay open to the opposite bank without
the mask of bush or tree to hide IL,
was in immediate proximity to the end
Of the bridge he had attempted 70
cross. 1t bore the name Of Dark Hol-
! low, and hollow and dark it looked in
| the universal gloom. But the power of
| its associations was upon him, and be-
| fore he knew 1t he was retracing his
steps as though drawn by magnet
| ism he could not resist, till he stood
within this hollow and possibly on the
very foot of ground from the mere
memory of which he had recoiled for
| years.

such as only escapes the bursting heart

tion-and he tore his eyes from the

"GUARDED" BY A CRAZY MAN
Sane Prisoner Gets a Suit of Clothes
and Doesn't Think He Has
Much Kick Coming.

When Frank Begosek. a Ravensdale
coal miner, was examined by lunacy
commission and found not insane, he
was ordered sent to the county hos
pital to recuperate for few days. At
the same time another patient from
the Jail was found insane and ordered
to Steilacoom.
The deputy sheriff in charge Of the
two prisoners misunderstood the or
ders and reported to the Jail officials
that both men were crazy" and had
been ordered to Steilacoom- So
Begosek was packed of to the asy-
Ium Tithout protest. Later Deputy
Sheriff John Cudihee went after him
and tucked him in the county hos
pital.
Begosek was perfectly good humored
about 1t. They had burned his clothes
at Steilacoom and allotted him q new
suit and pair Of shoes, and he will
go home fitted out for the winter.
1t is very good place, and the

house. Unexpectedly to himself the
judges intentions were in the direc-
ton of his own wishes. He was led
front; and, entering an old-fashioned
hall dimly lighted, passed staircase
and two closed doors, both Of which
gave him the impression Of having
been shut upon past it had pleasured
no one to revive in many years.
Beyond them was the great front
door Of colonial style and workman
ship, a fine specimen once, but greatly
disfgured now by the bolts and bars
which had been added to 1t in salts
faction Of the judges ideas Of security.
Many years had passed since Judge
Ostrander had played the host; but he
had not lost sense of its obligations.
It was for him to shoot the bolts and
clumsily and with such evident aver
sion to the task that the sergeant in
stinctively sprang to help him.
Il shall miss Bella at every turn"
remarked the judge, turning with sad
smile as he finally pulled the door
open. This is an unaccustomed effort
for me. Excuse my awkwardness."
Something in his attitude, something
in the way he lifted his hand to push
back fallen lock from his forehead,
impressed itself upon the sergeant's
mind so wildly that he always re-
membered the judge as he appeared
to him at that minute. Certainly
there were but few men like him in
the country, and none in bis own
town. Of a commanding personality
by reason of his height, his features
were Of cast to express his mental
attributes and enforce attentio2, and
the incongruity between his dorninat-
he displayed in these multiplied and
extraordinary arrangements for per-
sOnal security was forcible enough to
| arouse any mans interest.
The sergeant was so occupied by the
mystery of the man and ths mystery
of the house that they had Fassad the
first gate (Which the Judge had I'M
locked without much difficulty before
he realized that there still remained
something of interest for him TO see
| and to talk about later. The two dark
openings on either side, raised ques-
tiOns which the most unimaginAtiSe
mind would feel glad to hear explained.

SUPPLIES FOR THE SOLDIER
Line of Communication Must Remain
Intact In Order TO Provide Army
With Supplies,

General Grant said that when he
had re-established railroad communi-
cation at Chattanooga and so brought
food TO his starving army the soldiers
called it the cracker line" 1t is the
most essential line in war, Gard
writes in the Philadelphia Ledger.
The two armies facing each other in
France and belgium contain as many
men as there are people in Philadel-
phia At peace this city wears out
1900 pairs OF shoes every day. What
must the soldiers wear out when con-
stcptly marching over rough country?
TO feed Philadelphia requires daily
many train-loads of provisions coming
ia all directions. a soldier, like q citi-
zen. must be fed. He needs clothes,
blankets. rifles. ammunition, and he
requires them constantly.
The cracker line" is the line that
connects the army with its own stores
to the rear That's why we hear so
much about cutting the enemy's line

CHAPTER III.
Across the Bridoe,

1t was ten o'clock, not later, when
the judge re-entered his front door, He
was alone-absolutely alone, as he had
never been since that night of long
ago, when with the inner fence COM
pleted and the gates all locked. he
turned to the great negro at his side
and quietly said:
1--WE are done with the world, Bella.
Are you satisfied to share this solitude
with me?" And Bella had replied:
Night and day, your honor. And
when you are not here-when you are
at court. to bear it alone"
And now this faithful friend was
dead, and it was he who must bear it
alone-alone! How could he face it.!
He sought for no answer, nor did he
allow himself to dwell for one minute
on the thought. There was something
else he must do frst-do this very
night, if possible.
Taking down his hat from the rack,
he turned and went out again, this
time carefully locking the door behind
him, also the first gate. But he
stopped to listen before lifting bis
hand to the second one.
4 sound of steady breathing, accom-.
panied by few impatient movements,
came from the other side. A man was
posted there within a foot of the gate.
Noiselessiy the judge recoiled and
made his way around to the other set
of gates. Here all was quiet enough
and, sliding quickly out, he cast a
hasty glance up and down the Lane
and, seeing nothing more alarming
than the back of a second officer loung
| ing at the corner, pulled the gate
quietly to and locked it.
| He was well down the road toward
J the ravine before the officer turned.
The time has now come for giving
/ you a clearer idea of this especial
neighborhood. Judge Ostrander's
house, situated at the juncture of an
| unimportant road with the main high
way, had in its rear three small
houses, two of them let and one still
unrented. Farther on, but on the op
posite side of the way, stood q very
old dwelling, in which there lived and
| presumably worked a solitary woman
| the sole and final survivor of a large
family. Beyond was the ravine, cut
ting across the road and Terminating
it. This ravine merits some descrip
ton.

Judge Samuel P Kirby ordered the

1t was a picturesque addition to the

Of greatest activity. With the various
bridges connecting the residence por-

Between 1t and this lane, narrow path

short cut to a certain part of the
town mostly given over to factories.

formed part was called Factory on

it is their duty to qualify for their

Previous to the war the National In

large number Of physicians TO inspect
