distant from him, sometimes Hitting nearer, sometimes farther, and always seeming to rock like bird resting on the crest of a wave.
 Whether 1t was the night, still dis turbed by the storm that had passed. or something bewndering in this un- steady figure, Roscoe could never tell, but an appalling premonition stretch ed a pail over him like the wings of some huge black bird. Something within him seemed to say: "A great misfortune has fallen upon you. The wind and the waves are dirge. Be strong or you will be crushed"
 And now, having reached a point overlooking the water the sands being soaked, progress was slower. Scat tered ragged clouds were flying above, now and again dashlng across the face of the moon and shutting off it's light. At these dark periods the fitting figure was lost, but reappeared when the cloud had passed and the full light of the moon was released.
 Edmond had spent many an hour when home from college on the spot where he and Evalina had spoken their betrothal, and he saw that the figure was slowly moving toward 1t Yet 1t was the movement of a floating object, driven by alternate advancing and receding waters, yet borne by an invisible tide toward q given point But notwithstanding this apparently slow movement he gained but little on the figure. At last 1t reached the very spot where he and Evalina had plight ed their troth. There 1t paused. Fastening his steps so far as he could the moon at the moment was over cast-he advanced to Join the figure. When he was a few yards from 1t 6 bright light burst from the moon and revealed-Evallna, looking at him with pale and melancholy visage.
 He sprang toward her with out stretched arms, but at the moment an- other black cloud swept across the face of the only available light and hid his from her. When 1t had passed she had vanished.
 At his feet was a strip of seaweed-
 When morning came boatman stalk ing along over the soft sands saw a man lying so still that he thought 1t might be one cast in from wreck by the storm. He found Edmond Roscoe. There was life in him, and the boat man after rousing him helped him home.
 A ship came in and with 1t news that Evalina had departed for Amer lea. But the vessel on which she sail ed never reached port, Pieces of wreck came ashore on the coast, denoting that a ship had foundered, but no frag- ment bore its name.
 Edmond Roscoe never went back to college. He had lost all ambition, all desire for life. It was claimed that he had received some physical stroke which impaired his mental faculties. Whether this were so or whether the loss of his betrOthed and his ailment were a coincidence was never set tied. He was often seen on the beach at Newport wandering about almless- ly or sitting on one spot looking out on the water. This continued till he was an old man. and in the town in which he lived a few residents of Oth- CT places began to build cottages for summer residences.

did not write him. She did not write of the offers of marriage that followed one another in rapid succession.
 When these offers of marriage were showered upon Evallna she declined them without giving as a reason a pre- vious attachment Later, possibly as one might hide behind gauge, she ire Quently wore as a decoration the sea weed that her American lover had gtv- en her. Sometimes 1t was tackled to her skirt, sometimes she wore 1t in her corsage, and again It would be inter- twined with her hair In time she came to be called the Seaweed Lady.
 Meanwhile Roscoe was studying as collegian, though his mind was with his heart, and that was across the ocean. He read with avidity Evallna's letters and shuddered as he thought of the differences between himself, an undergraduate of a college but a few years old. without fortune, compared with some cOroneted man with vast estates. Evalina's letters were reas- ! surfing, but she was growing from maidenhood to womsnhood. and would she not give way at last?
 However the period allotted for her sojourn abroad was drawing to a close She did not write her lover that she was coming home for the reason that she did not know if she would be per mitted to return. Her parents were much chagrlned at hearing that she had refused an earl and the second son of duke and were debating whether to send the funds for her pas sage back to America or insist that she remain longer
 It was two years from the time Of Eyalina's departure that storm such as Newport had not experienced in many years broke upon the coast. For three days the giant waves struck wildly upon the cliffs and rolled far LID into Narragansett bay. Then, on the evening of the third day, the clouds broke away in the west and the sun set In golden splendor.
 That night the moon was at the full As the sun went down the queen oI night rose. Edmond, desiring to view the effect of the storm on the waves, when night had fallen and the moon was lighting the land and the water started for the beach. The path was lonely, and there was terror in the tumbling of the great waves on the sands. The only likeness to the night of Edmond and Evalina's betrothal was the full moon.
 He had passed midway from the town to the water when he saw before him a figure that be knew to be woman by her garments huttering in the wind, which was still strong. She seemed to be coming toward him, but as he advanced drew no nearer to him. He went on until he came to the edge of the beach and saw her still

Birds as Lamps.

The natives of Trinidad make use of the young guaCharo in an unusual man ner. The young are very fat and are frequently found to weigh more than the full grown birds. Their fat is used by the natives to produce an oil which is a substitute for butter. Also 1t is frequently the custom of the natives to draw a wick through the body of a young guaCharo and use it as a lamp or candle. Thus the guaCharO is some times called the oil bird.

THREATENS COURT MARTIAL
War Department Rules Soldiers Can- not Be Released Even if They Re- fuse to Take Federal Oath.

Boston, June 29.-Adjutant General Charles H. Cole announced today that he had received a communication from the war department notifying him that discharges granted members of the militia who refused to take the fed eral oath or members with dependent families. were illegal. The communi- cation called attention to a section of the law which provides that a militia man who refuses to be, mustered into the federal aservice upon demand of the prcsidelN shall be subject to court martial.
 General Cole said that between 800 and 800 men had refused to take the oath and that he had issued about fifty discharges, in the belief that he was within his rights under the law. Tn view of the war departm ent's in- depreciation of the statute, he said that he would order all militiamen who had returned to their homes from the camp at Birmingham to report at the camp again.

MANUFACTURING MUNITIONS?
Rumor Has It That Russell & Erwin Is Making "War Toys'' for Uncle Sam-Manager Haw1ey Denies It.

A rumor connects the Russell & Err win Manufacturing company and the United States government with a transa ction which involves close to a million dollars for the manufactu of caps to be used for intuition pur- poses. The report states that opera tions have been commenced on the fourth floor of one of the factory buildings and that all means of se- crecy is being taken by the company officials to cover up the nature of the work.
 A reporter talked with General Manager B. A. Hawley of the con- cern this morning and received a general denial of the rumor. MT. Hawley said, "T would like to see one of them, (caps) also an order amount ing to a million dollars. Nothing to it."
 The local manufacturers have in the past been very reluctant toward giving out any information pertain ing to reports concerning government orders. It has always been their at titude to deny these reports, not withstanding that some of the local factories have the reputation of car rying this line for many months.

SHUTTLEWORTH IS IN COMMAND AT NIANTIC Camp Federalized When Regular Army Officer
 Takes Charge.

Camp Ho1comb, Mantle, June 29.- This camp for instruction of re- cruits for Connecticut commands which are now speeding toward Mex lcan border was completely federal ized today when Major Edward A. infantry instructor for the Connecticut National Guard, assumed full com- mand. He will shortly appoint off, cers to conduct the camp, these being the reserve officers of the national guard already here under orders from Adjutant General Cole.
 The hard work of getting recruits into condition for camp life and to give them military knowledge suffi- cient to enable them to be handled in detachments larger than corporars squads is well under way. The ma- terial is very green but there are enough militiamen left to give stead mess to the aggregation. The num- Der in camp will soon be a thousand.
 Adjutant General Cole, Col. Wise, Col. Schulze and Major Ives will con- tinue to have their quarters here to look after the administration of the camp.
 Adjutant General Cole today or dered Company M, First Infantry, which has been encamped on the Co1ebrook road near Winsted since the mobilization call, to march to this camp. When the command arrives some days hence the men will be ex- amined. If there are any traces of measles the company will be returned to it's station.
 Troop A, Cavalry of New Haven today received it's orders to be ready to move. Tents were struck and at noon equipage was piled up ready for the baggage wagons. Capt. Wolf said he was ready to entrain just as soon as the order came to do so, but he thought that, judging from delays in other departures, it would be eve- ming before the command got away.
 Battery F of Stamford, at the East Haven range, will not go south at this time. Orders are awaited as to the disposition of the six batteries of field artillery for the drill period of several weeks, it being expected that they will eventually be brought to- ! gether to be maneuvered as one unit
