so dramatic that it can never have been paraleled in the history of scien- tific gatherings. Professor Challenger raised his hand in the air as a signal, and at once our colleague, MT. E. D. Malone, was observed to rise and to make his way to the back of the plat form. An instant later he reappeared in company of a gigantic negro, the two of them bearing between them a large square packing case. All sound had hushed in the audience and every one was absorbed in the spectacle be- fore them. Professor Challenger drew off the top of the case, which formed a sliding lid. PeeriDg down into the box, he snapped his fingers several times and was heard from the press seat to say, Come, then, pretty, pretty!' in a coaxng voice An instant later, with scratching, rattling sound, most horrible and 1oathsome creature appeared from below and perched it. self upon the side of the case
 Even the unexpected fall of the Duke of Durham into the orches- tra, which occurred at this moment, could not distract. the petrified atten- ton of the vast audience. The face of the creature was like the widest gargoyle that the imagination of a mad medieval builder could have con ceived. It was malicious, horrible, with two small red eyes as bright as points of burning coal Its long, saw E age mouth, which was held half open, was full of a double row of sharkIike teeth. It's shoulders were Jumped, and round them was draped what ap- peared to be 8 faded gray shawl It was the devil of our childhood in per- son. There was a turmoil in the audi ence-some one screamed, two ladies in the front row fell senseless from their chairs, and there was a general movement upon the platform to follow their chairman into the orchestra For moment there was danger of a gen. era1 panic. Professor Challenger threw up his hands to still the commotion, but the movement alarmed the crea- ture beside him. It's strange shawl suddenly unfurled, spread and futter- ed as a pair of leathery wings. It's owner grabbed at it's legs, but too late to hold it. It had sprung from the perch and was circling slowly round the Queens hall with a dry, leathery mapping of it's ten foot wings, while a rutrfd and insidious odor pervaded the room. The cries of the people in the galleries, who were alarmed at the near approach of those glowing eyes and that murderous beak, excited the creature to frenzy. Faster and fast CT it flew, beating against walls and chandeliers in blind frenzy of alarm. The windowi For heavens sake shut that windowr roared the professor 1 from the platform, dancing and wiring ing his hands in an agony of appre- hension. Alas, his warning was too late! In a moment the creature, beat ing and pumping along the wall like

Was the London Geological institute to place itself in this position? He ad n1itted that the members of the com 1nittee were men of character. But hu- man na<ure was very complex.

a huge moth within a gas shade, came upon the opening, squeezed its h1deous bulk through it and was gone. Pro lessor Challenger fell back into his chair with his face buried in his hands, while the audience gave one long, deep sigh of relief as they real ized that the incident was over.
 EtThen-oh, how shall one describe what took place then-when the full exuberance of the majority and the full reaction of the minority united to make one great wave of enthusiasm, which rolled from the back of the hall, gathering volume as it came, swept over the orchestra, submerged the platform and carried the four heroes away upon its crest?' Good for you, MacD If the audience had done less than justice surely it made ample amends. Every one was on his feet Every one was moving, shouting, ges- ticl3Iati A dense crowd of cheering men were around the four travellers up with them! Up with themr cried s hundred voices. In moment four figures shot up above the crowd. In vain they strove to break loose. They were held in their lofty places of hon. or. It would have been hard to let them down If it had been wished, so dense was the crowd. Out in the street the scene was extraordinary. An assemhIage of not less than 100000 people was waiting. The close packed throng extended from the other side of the Iangham hotel to Oxford circus. A roar of exclamation greeted t-l4 four adventurers as they appeared, high above the heads Of the people, under the vivid electric lamps outside the hall A procession! A procession! was the cry. In dense phalanx. blocking the streets from side to side, the crowd set forth, taking the route of Regent street, Pail Mall, St James street and Piccadilly. The whole cen tral traffic of London was held up, and many collisions were reported between the demonstrators upon the one side. and the police and taxi cabmen upon the other. Finally it was not until after midnight that the four travellers we're released at the entrance to Lord John Roxton's chambers in the All bany and that the exuberant crowd, having sung They Are Jolly Good Eel lows in chorus, concluded their pro gram with God Save the King
 One word as to the fate of the London
 
 certain upon this point There is the evidence of two frightened women that 1t perched upon the roof of the Queens hall and remained there like diabon- cal statue for some hours. The next day it came out in the evening papers that Private Miles of the Coldstream guards, on duty outside Marlborough House, had deserted his post without leave and was therefore courtmartial ed. Private Miles account that he dropped his rifle and took to his heels down the mall because on looking up he had suddenly seen the devil between him and the moon, was not accepted by the court, and yet it may have direct bearing upon the point at issue. The only other evidence which can adduce is from the log of the steamship Fries land, a Dutch-American liner, which asserts that at next morning, Starr Point being at the time ten miles upon their starboard quarter, they were passed by something between flying goat and a monstrous bat, which was heading at prodigious pace south and west.

Hurry to cIain, Gladys.

M ND Gladys-oh, my Gladys A Gladys of the mystic lake, now A to be renamed the Central, for never shall she have immortal ity through me. Did I not always see some hard fiber in her nature?
 Let me tell it in 8 few words. No letter or telegram had come to me at Southampton, and I reached the little villa at Streatham about 10 o'clock that night il fever of alarm. Was she dead or alive? Where were all my nightly dreams of the open arms, the smiling face, the words of praise for her man who had risked his life to hu- nor or whim2 I rushed down the garden path, hammered at the door, heard the voice of Gladys within, pushed past the staring maid and strode into the sitting room.
 "Gladys!' cried. ''GladysP'
 She looked up with amazement in her face. She was a1tc2red in some sub tie way. The expression of her eyes, the hard upward stare, the set of the lips, was new to me. She drew back her hands.
 'sWhat do you mean?'' she said.
 Gladys I cried, what is the mat ter? You are my Gladys, are you not little Gladys Hungerton ?'
 'fNo,'' said she; "I am Gladys Potts. Let me introduce you to my husband"
 How absurd life is! I found my self mechanically lowing and shaking hands with little ginger haired man who was coiled up in the deep arm chair which had once been sacred to my own use. We bobbed and grinned in front of each other
 Father lets us stay here. We are getting our house ready" said Gladys
 "Oh, yesY' said I.
