CHAPTER TX.
The Fortunes of War.

Sabron's departure had been de-
layed on accoun of a strike at the
~dockyards Of M~arseilles. He left
Tarascon one lovely day toward the
end of January and the old town with
its sweetness and it's sorrow, fell be-
hind. as he rolled away to brighter
suns. A friend from Paris took him to
the port in his motor and there Sabron
waited some forty-eight hours before
he set sail. His boat lay out on the
azure water, the brown rocks of the
coast behind it. There was not a
breeze to stir as he took the tug which
was to convey him. He was inclined
to dip his fingers in the indigo ocean,
sure that he would find them blue.
He climbed up the ladder alongside of

below, for he had been suffering from
en- attack of fever which now and then
laid hold of him, ever since his cam
paign in Morocco.
Therefore, as he went into his cabin,
which he did not leave until the steam
er touched Algiers, he failed to see
the baggage tender pull up and failed
to see a sailor climb to the deck with
a wet bedraggled thing in his hand
that looked like an old fur cap except
that it wriggled and was alive.
This, mon commandant," said the
sailor to the captain, lis the Quickest
little beast l ever saw"
He dropped a small terrier on the
deck, who proceeded to shake himself
vigorously and bark with apparent de,
light.

the quay than this little beggar sprang

NOVELIST TAKES POISON !
IN NL0ND0N COURTROOM
Miss Annesley Kenealy Empties Bot
tie on Hearing Judgment Pro-
nounced Against. Her.

LONDON, November 20.--"My lord,
1 told you you were trying a
woman for her. life; have taken
enough poison to kill five people" was
the dramatic exclamation made by the
novelist, Miss Annesley Kenealy. as
she threw upon the floor bottle. the
contents of which she had just swal-
lowed on hearing the court pronounce
judgment against her.
Miss Kenealy collapsed and later she
was removed to the hospital. She re-
covered consciousness and was said to
be out of danger.
Miss Kenealys suit was claim for
damages against a book distributing
firm for alleged false and malicious
statements defamatory of her hook.
The defendants refused to circulate the
book, as they alleged it contained a
libel on a West End dressmaker. whose
premises were described as gambling
den. Miss Kenealy averred that the ac-
tion of the defendants deprived her of
a livelihood, as publishers now refuse
to accept her book.
Miss Kenealy and her sister Arabella
are daughters of the late Edward V. II:
Kenealy, who was the leading counsel
for the claimant in the famous Itch
borne trial in 1873.
