Ma tante," she said in a hard
voice. i love him! You must have
known it and seen it. l love him! He
is becoming my life"
AS the marquise looked at the girls
face and saw her trembling lips and
her wide eyes, she renounced her am.
blt1ons for Julia Redmond. She re.
nounced them with sigh, but she was
woman of the world, and more than
that, true woman. She remained for a
moment in silence, holding Julia's
hands.
She had followed the campaign of
her husbands cousin, young man
with an insignificant title whom she
had not married. In this moment she
relived again the arrival of the eve
ming papers; the dispatches, her hus-
bands news Of his cousin. AS she
kissed Julia's cheeks moisture
passed over her own eyes, which for
many years had shed no tears
Courage, my dear" she implored,
I'VE will telegraph at once to the
minister of war for news"
The girl drew a convulsive breath
and turned, and leaning both elbows
on the piano keys-perhaps in the
very notes whose music in the little
song had charmed Sabron-she burst
into tears. The marquise rose and
passed out of the room to send a man
with dispatch to Tarascon.

Civilizations Peril.

America is closer to the heart Of
Europe than at any time since Eng

states. To the most isolated farm
house it has been known for q half year
that we are not remote from the por-
tentous events beyond the sea; that
the fate of our brothers over there.
in some way which we do not well
discern, involves us also. We are,
whether we like it or not. full share
holders in the civilization which is i'm

our prosperity and well-being, our cul-

our common humanity, and the ideals
of our common aspirations, are all at

Pitchoune followed at the heels OF

he was not trampled to death, but he

and death to keep itself secure and his
hide whole. He smelt the gunpowder,
he smelt the smoke, shifted at 1t,
threw up his pretty head and barked,
pulled and painted, yelped and tore
about and followed. He was not con-
scious of anything but that Sabron
was in motion; that Sabron, his be-
loved master, was in action OF some
kind or other and he, soldiers dog,
was in action, too. He howled at
fierce dark faces, when he saw them.
He snarled at the bullets that whis-
tied around his ears and, laying his
little ears back, he shook his black
muzzle in the very grin of death.
Sabron's horse was shot under him,
and then Pitchoune saw his master

CHAPTER XIII.


There must be a real philosophy in
all proverbs. Every dog has his day
is significant one. 1t surely was for
Pitchoune. He had his day. 1t was a
glorious one, terrible one, memoir
able one, and he played his little part
in it. He awoke at the gray dawn
springing like flash from the foot OF
Sabron's bed, where he lay asleep, in
response to the sound Of the reveille
and Sabron sprang up after him.
Pitchoune in a few moments was in
the center Of real disorder. All he
knew was that he followed his master

NOTES

President Tener objects to ball play
ers writing for newspapers.
this year in midseason is much larger
than usual.
Ty Cobb's method is to regard him
self as a pinch-hitter every time he
steps to the plate.
McGraw makes the bold prediction
that Herzogs Cincinnati Reds will fin
ish at the tail end.
Veteran George Mcconnell Is Just
now enjoying the most brilliant success
Of his baseball career.
In st. Louis critics and fans feel
sure that the Cardinals have an excel
lent chance to win the pennant.
The passing of Chief Meyers is ex-
pected, now that Charlie Doom has
been secured by John McGraw.
Marty O'Toole is trying to get back
into the majors. His no-hit game for
Columbus against Cleveland is a big
boost.
Herbert Holmes is doing most Of the
catching for his Saginaw outfit. And
he is playing lot better ball than he
did last season.
With this years experience, Harry
Smith, the Giants young catcher, will
develop into one of the best backstops
in the big leagues.
Manager Robinson of the Dodgers is
having his troubles keeping Phil
Douglass straight, but if he succeeds
Phil will pitch great ball.
Gavvy Cravath has proved to the
satisfaction of everyone this year that
he is good fielder as well as being
a mere slugger of the ball.
Manager Frank Isbell of Des Moines
is advocating a rule in the Western
league permitting seven-inning games
when double headers are played.
Walter Rehg, who was substitute
outfielder for the Boston Red Sox, is
showing his worth as regular for the
Providence team of the International
league.
The New England league has no
further fears as to Fitchburg making
good in its circuit. With the team
winning, the attendance is said to be
the best in the league.
The players are riding Hank Gowdy,
worlds series hero. Hank flashed brill
liantly last fall. but he has not been
going so well this year. and Whaling
is doing all the catching.
The columns of Utica sporting pages |
are filed with praise for the work of
Outfelder Otto Wagner, who is said
to be doing the best work of his career
and figuring in many good play for
the Utes.
Pitcher House of Tacoma opposed |
Pitcher Lott of Seattle IN a recent |

TaIcum Powder Ball.

Pitcher Jim Shaw Of the Washing
ton team is said to contemplate exper-
imenting with the talcum ball. What
he seems to need most is ball that
will go somewhere near to where he
aims it. There is nothing the matter
with what he throws now, except that
# won't go within mile of the plate.
