Jholor's exclusive private property.
Likely enough no one but VEN
turesome American would have
thought of getting up before sun
rise to appropriate a crazy native
boat, and drop down the Jholor
River just to see where it went.
Anyway, that was how he came
to step ashore at domed marble
pavilion, rising out of the dawn
mist like some fairy creation in
silver and rose pink. His ap-
proach reused a sleeping muggar
on the bottom step to slide noise
lessly back into the water, and
moved two sentinel cranes to
spread their wings in lazy flight.
Lane strolled up the steps whist
ling softly to himself; for the
dream spirit of the hour was upon
him, and he felt in a reflective
mood. He reached a wide plat
form on which stood the pavilion,
inclosed by screens of marble fret
work. Beyond lay gardens of exotic
plants elistening as witt liquid
jewels. Lane was gazing on these
when he became conscious that
he was being watched in turn.
@Qua hai?" WHO is there?l
voice fell pleasantly but with just
a shade of alarm on his ear.
Lane swung half round, to notice
a girl standing in the opening be-
tween two of the marble screens.
He had heard much of the physical
attractions of Hindu women; but
so far he had been permitted to
inspect only those of the peasant
class, and he expressed much dis
appointment. But this girl, poised
like classic figure, draped in
the ilrny, silken folds of her bright
colored, richly embroidered sari,
and with eyes of mysterious depths
directed wonderingly upon him, v

But presently his form appeared
in one of the entrances. He looked
about him, and for a moment di-
rected his gaze under the runway.
With one hand supporting the girl
Lane could feel a shiver run
through her frame. 1t was hardly
possible that they had not been
seen. Yet he moved on, a grave,
= stately figure, glancing neither to
the right hand nor the left. He
passed under the runway, and they
could almost have touched his
garments; but by no word or sign
did he show that he recognized
their presence. In a little he was
gone.

LONDON, Aug. 14.-Steady progress
for the forces of Prince Leopold OF
Bavaria eastward from Warsaw is
taken here to indicate that the Ger
mans are now massing their main
movement on drive through the Rus
sian center. Both Petrograd and Ber-
lin agree that the Germans have occu-
pied the towns of Sokolow and Siedlce
and Lukow, forming German front
about sixty miles east of Warsaw
and fifty miles wide.
This is more than half way to the
tBrest-Litovsk, which Grand Duke
Nicholas the commander in chief
hopes to make the new center of his
defense. It is now regarded as prob
able that this point will be aban-
idoned owing to the speed OF the Ger

does not concede this, but any event
tit does not affect the advance OF the
flank further north, where invading
forces several days ago were along
the Dvina river, the historic line lead
ling to the province of Pskow which
lies on the road to Petrograd. For the
moment, however. the intensity OF the
z fighting is giving way to scramble
of the retiring forces to avoi dthe en-
yeloping net and the rapid advance OF
the Germans to gather the full fruit OF
the fall of WARSAW.

These Mexicans were killed.
Owing to the slowness Of means OF

joyousness and her sunlight from be.

She overwhelms man by the contrast
between divine beauty and social
hideousness. She spares him moth.

fly nor bird. In the midst OF murder,
vengeance, barbarism, he must feel
himself watched by holy things;
he cannot escape the awful repr5ach
