Hon. F. A. Wood, of st. Peters
burg, candidate for governor, has at
least one clear, well-defined issue
upon which he will make his canvas,
and he is shrewd enough to capital
ize it in a way that will give him n
large amount of valuable publicity
He wants the fee system abolished
and all county officials placed upon
4 salary basis and he is circulating
petitions for signatures asking the
governor to call an extra session Of
the legislature to convene not later
than the last week in April to en-
act laws to carry his program into
effect. This is good politics on the
part Of Mr.. Who'd because of the
he gets out of II, but it
would be mighty poor judgment on
the part of the governor to call the
extra session for any such purpose.
Extra sessions are costly to the tax
payers and they are called only
when grave public emergencies de.
nand them. The abolition of the
fee system is a venerable issue in
our State politics, old enough to
wear long white whiskers. Every
legislature toys with it and monkeys
with it and ends by letting it alone.
The fee system may be desirable or
for there is something
10 be said on both sides of the case,
but there is certainly nothing in 1t
hat creates either a crisis or emer-
.ency in our State affairs grave
,nough to call for an extra session.

There was silence in the room, at
once so rich and repressed in its mold
ings and furnishings, where Gordon
Barclay received and gave orders to
such of his fellow millionaires as were
in his confidence
Semmes ana Sturtevant, of all men
deepest In his confidence were
strangely moved. The great man for
once had not been dealing with facts,
but with fancies. Very quietly and
earnestly ne had been painting for
them that terrific future to which, as
he saw 1t, the restless forces of the
world were driving.
II may nave been that the presence
OF Professor Stilliter in the room had
a kind of hypnotic effect upon the two
men. He stood in shadow against the
wainscoting, and his eyes never left
the back OF their heads
At first Barclay showed them some

ers too great to be tossed by the
waves, interminable freight trains

and kissed her hand for all the world
as II she had been a princess. Then
Sturtevant came forward and did like
wise, and then Semmes.
Although Professor Stilliter had told
her to wake up, the spell of the crystal
was still upon her like drowsiness
after sleep. To reduce her once more
TO a complete state of hypnosis it was
only necessary for him to say quietly.

What looked like a portion of solid
cliff rose suddenly. without any sound,
and disclosed black passage that ap-
peared to lead to the bowels OF the
earth. In the mouth OF this passage
way stood handsome woman, q little
under middle age. There was a dia-
mond star in her dark hair, and she
wore a white garment that fell from
her shoulders In stately folds like
those of Roman toga. She came for
ward, caught the little Amesbury girl
up lovingly in her arms, turned, and.
without a word, walked back into the
passageway and disappeared. For .
long time the sound of her sandaled
feet upon the rocky floor could be
heard. Then the moving portion Of
the cliff slid slowly and noiselessly
back into place. and the four men who
remained without turned somewhat
slowly to each other.

less men dying of exposure. And then
in swift flashes he showed them, stand

a slum, a man in tattered rags, with
the forehead of the first Napoleon and
the lion-roar voice of Mirabeau-a man
who spoke to the wretched and the
unfortunate, and the idle and the mis-
chievous, and filled their hearts with
fire and passion and hate.
He showed those same men, armed
with guns, with poles, with machetes,
with hammers, stopping limousine
on Fifth avenue, dragging out an old
man In a fur-lined coat and hanging
him, more dead than alive, to the
nearest iamppost. He showed them
that same crowd, ever growing in num-
Ders ano anger, tearing policeman to
pieces; he showed them banks and
other strongholds OF capital that rose
suddenly heavenward in puffs OF sor-
did-smellIng gray smoke, and were
not.
And he showed them themselves
fleeing by night. in disguise, price
upon them, dead OF alive; and he
showed them Napoleon-Mirabeau

pairing to mold what he had taken, now
begging, now commanding, now
wheedling, now killing, and then he
showed them battles and leaping can

over fortress, and themselves per-
sonally, all three, in the uniform of
generals, led forth blindfolded and

against whitewashed wall.
Finally Sturtevant looked his friend
and master In the face and said:

US all Mr. Stilliter."
AS Professor Stilliter advanced Nj.
Barclay said to the others: "The

professor.

Professor Stilliter drew from his
pocket a folded picture frame of req

remedy?"
For answer Barclay simply touched

Doctor Wainwright smiled and nod

The object OF Professor Stilliter's
interest was not hard to find. She
was seated forlorn and disconsolate,
upon the bottom step of the front
stair. Doctor Wainwright picked her
up in his arms and kissed her. He
made her shake hands with Professor
Stilliter.
Professor Stilliter could not con ,oaI

had been too well brought up. and car.
ried her three or four years with too
much dignity to run from him and

She did not resist when he lifted her
from the floor, asked her age and said,

But when he asked wouldn't she show
him the pretty house in which she
lived, she did so gladly. for it seemed
to pat an end to being handled.
Fol his immediate purpose Profes-
sor Stilliter did not need to penetrate
beyond the cheerful living room, for
here his eyes at once singled out from
many three photographs, in which
justice had pretty nearly been done,
not only to his small companion. but
to her famous father and her mother.
What is that funny thing on the
piano?' asked Professor Stilliter The
little girl looked in the direction in
and told him that it was a
Chinese "ephelent.'
During the moment in which he had
succeeded in diverting her attention
the young man had slipped the three

him a kiss This was a thing which,

CHAPTER ~.

OHAF En w.
That night about twelve O'Clock
nurses bed in the little Amesbury
girls room was empty The house was
in darkness, except for the kitchen
From this came sounds Of revelry and
of talking machine. The little Ames
bury girl dreamed that man With
immense black-rimmed eyes was
bending over her and she walked with
q scream.
For once in her life she had dreamed
true, for Professor stilliter was bend
ing over ner, and the fingers of his left
hand were clasped almost chokingly
about ner baby throat. In his right
hand ne held before her eyes lump
of rock crystal the size and shape OF q
hens egg. The crystal appeared to
exercise an instant fascination upon
her. She forgot that she was afraid
and that she wanted to scream for
help. She even forgot the presence OF
Professor Stilliter. She thought, in.
deed, that she was all alone and that
somebody had opened door through
which she was at liberty to look into
fairyland.
Very far away she heard a voice
that Said very quietly. Now you cant
scream
OF course she tried to, and found
that she couldn't.
And now" said the voice, you
can't do anything unless tell you to.
Get up She slipped obediently out
of bed.
Dress yourself" said the voice.

self. She even tied her own hair rib

toned her own tiny boots.

her downstairs and out into the night
She never afterward recalled any
thing of the journey to the north
woods which she made with Professor
Stilliter. The long automobile ride,
the Montreal express held up between
stations, the long drive into the woods,
and, after that, when they had come
to the end of the road, the long, toll
some up-and-down-hill tramp. through
which she rode first on the shoulders
of one man and then on the shoulders
of another. until the party came to
a wild spot at the foot of the cliff.
Here, in the warm spring sunshine
on lodges of rock, number of drowsy
rattlesnakes were coiled in horrid
mass. She does not remember that
here, as it waiting for her. were three
men who wore black masks over their
faces.
When the men who had brought her
to the foot of the cliff had gone, with
the exception of Professor Stilliter,
the three masked men removed their,
masks. So that when Professor Still

Cotton planting is now actively in

Mississippi, how much at present is
mere guess work but it will probably
not be over 25 per cent. A bulletin
on cotton, No. 1859, covering some cot
ton experiments at A. & M. College
central station, Holly Springs substa-
ton, and the substation in Washing
ton county is available, giving some
very interesting experiments with the
results. This can be had by anyone
who desires 1t by applying to the Di-
rector of the Experiment Station, Ag-
ricultural College, Miss.
Planters have likely most of their
seed but some fertilizing and culti
waiting tests are given in this bulletin
which may be of interest In the test
for determining the best distance to
plant cotton under boil weevil condi-
lions on premium uplands, conducted
at the A. & M. College central station
the following results were obtained:
On the foot rows the plots gave
yield figured on the acre of 1000 lbs.
of seed cotton; the IL foot rows,
1886 lbs; the foot rows, 1920 lbs.;
the 4 IL foot rows, 1900 lbs; the 5
foot rows 1176 lbs. The results of dis

36-in 1853 lbs. The variety used in
these tests were Cleveland. the land
was medium upland. On rice bottom
land on ground that produces heavy
stalk growth the foot rows might not
be advisable, but where cotton grows
from 3 to A foot as it did in these
tests the narrow row close to the
drill gives the larger yield of early
cotton, which is the only cotton that
you get when the boil weevils are
plentiful.
At the Holly Spring station, which
is medium to thin upland, it was
found that from 200 to 300 lbs of equal
parts of cottonseed meal and acid phos-
