with the preliminaries settled, no Who
had struck Samson in the face must
give satisfaction for the blow. Horton
was sober. as cold sober as though he
had jumped into ice-water. and though
he was not in the least afraid, he was
mortified. and, had apology at such
time been possible. would have made
It, He knew that he had misjudged
his man; he saw the outlines of the
plot as plainly as Samson had seen
them, though more tardily.
Samson's toe touched the pistol
which had dropped from Farbish's
hand and he CONTEMPORARY kicked It
to one side. He came back to his
place.
Now, Mr. Horton" he said TO the
man who stood looking about with a
dazed expression, "if you're still Of the
same mind, can accommodate you.
You lied when you said / was a saw
age-though just now it sort of looks
like l was, and"-he paused, then
added-"and I'm ready either to fight
or shake hands. Either way suits
me-"
For the moment, Horton did not
speak, and Samson slowly went on:
But, whether we fight or not, you've
got to shake hands with me when we're
finished. You and me amt going to
start no feud. This is the first time
I've ever refused to let man be my
enemy IL he wanted to. I've got my
reasons I'm going to make you shake
hands with me whether you like 1t or
not, but il you want to fight first it's
satisfactory. You said awhile ago you
would be glad to be more explicit with
me when we were alone" He paused
and looked about the room. Shall
throw these damned murderers out OF
here, or will you go into another room
and talk?"
Leave them where they are" said
Horton, quietly. We'll go into the
reading-room. Have you killed any Of
them?"

ly, land 1 don't care"
When they we're alone, Samson
went on:

You want to question me about Miss
Lescott. Whatever she and / have
done doesn't concern you. l will say
this much-if I've been ignorant of
New York ways and my ignorance has
embarrassed her, I'm sorry.

Hundred.Foot Standard.

The Western Society of Engineers
has had prepared a 100-foot length
standard, which it has presented to
the city of Chicago. This standard is
a steel rod 1902 feet long, two inches
wide and half an inch in thickness,
which rests on rollers secured to sub
stantial brackets fixed to the wall. The
graduations, which were established
by Prof. L. A. Fischer of the United
States bureau of standards, Washing
ton, were at zero. one foot, one yard,
one meter, ten feet, rs feet, so feet, 66
feet, 90 meters, 80 meters and 100
feet, and at each Of these points disk
of an alloy of 80 per cent platinum and
ten per cent iridium SIG inch in
diameter was inserted in the rod flush
with its surface, the exact division
point being marked on the disk. The
work of graduation proved remarkably
accurate as is shown by the correction
table furnished for use in connection
with comparisons of measures.

VALUABLE POULTRY FEED
Some Fowls Become Fat on Almost
Amy Kind Of Food, While Others
VIII Not Fatten on Corn.

Corn is valuable poultry food, and
it is in its abuse and not its use that it
is to be condemned. Some fowls be-
come fat on almost any kind Of food,
while others will not fatten even on
corn. There seems to be good bit of
humanlike nature about the makeup OF
the hen. If hens are made to exercise
for their grain, and are in good lay
ing condition, there is not much dan
ger of their becoming overfat. In
fact, it is rather difficult matter to
overfatten laying hens It is when,
they are slack in laying and become
lazy that the fat seems to start I'd
grow. When hens become too fat
they should be placed in a separated
yard where there is no male bird, asJ
the attention of male to an overfad
hen is apt to hasten DEATH If such
hens are given only an evening feed
Of wheat and nothing during the day
except green food and water they will
soon lose considerable Of their sur-
plus fat.

SLEEP WAS NOT FOR HER
Could Out of Foregoing Prom
ised Reward.

The parentally imposed afternoon
nap has long been childhood's bane.
Harry s. Smith, secretary of the park
board was telling the other day of
difficulties of afternoon mapping expe-
rienced by his offspring.
A youthful daughter is especially
given to insomnia at the time In the
afternoon when it is insisted that she
shall nap. 1t is no fault of hers. She
strives strenuously to WOO Morpheus,
but to no avail. The sleep god is CO
quettish and he comes only when he
can steal upon his victims.
The other afternoon the tot was do
ing her best to sleep. Dutifully she
closed her eyes, breathed rhythmically
and counted sheep jumping over the
fence, as instructed. Sleep would not
come. But it would never do to dis
appoint parent. So when the ques-
ton came, Are you sleeping, daugh-
ter?" she murmured slumberously,
"Ub-huh."
But her message was not convinc-
ing. So she was offered dime as a
reward for sleeping. Time and again
she made the effort, but always it was
fruitless. Then she began to squirm.
Finally she sat up in her bed. Her
manner was eloquent of conviction of
the futility of further effort, after res
ignation of claim upon the reward.
"Oh, don't care; l don't want the
dime" she said. my bank is a penny
bank, yhow."-Louisvill Times.

that Horton would not listen to his
condolences. The delegated spokes-
man warned Wilfred that Samson
South had spoken pointedly of him,
and advised cautious conduct, in a
fashion calculated to inflame.
Samson, it was falsely alleged, had
accused him of saying derogatory
things in his absence, which he would
hardly venture to repeat in his pres-
ence. In short, it was put to Horton
to announce his opinion openly, or eat
the crow Of cowardlce.
That evening, when Samson went
to his room, Farbish joined him.

he said, seating himself on Samson's
bed. that Horton arrived today"
