Arriving at Mount Mark, he was in

OF Prudence was upon every tongue,

school superintendent, along with II
miscellaneous assortment of ordinary
members, mixed up with Presbytcrians,
Baptists and few uncassifcd outsid-

attraction.
She was telling the "wholc story"

It was important, from the Methodist

Neither the younger girls nor their

For a moment the girls stood looking
at one another qucstioningly. Then
Tho heard leud thud downstairs, rs
OF SOMEONE pounding ON a door There
WAS I'D longer any doubt Someone
WAS in The house! Connie and the
twins screamed again and chung to
Prudence frunticaIly. And Fairy said,

stay right here until morning, Prue."
But Prudence fHced them stubborn
ly. of you think I'm going to let any

jeotcd Fairy.
"WolI, if it is, Wen find out who did
it, and have them arrested. I'm going
down to telephone to the police. You
girls must lock the door after me, and
stay right here"
The little ones screamed again, and
FAIRY said: "Don't be silly, Prue if
you go I'm going with you, of course.

safe i'll here"
But the children loudly objected to
this. If Prue and Fairy went they
would go! So down the stairs they
trOOped, a timOrous trembling crowd.
Prudence went at once to the tele-
phone and called up the residence of
the Allans, their neighbOrs across the
street. After a seemingly never-ending
wait, the kind-hearted neighbOr left
his bed to answer the inSistent tele-
phone. Falteringly Prudence explained
their predicament, and asked him to
come and search the house. He prom
iSed to be there in five minutes, with
his son to help.
"Now," said Prudence more cheer
fully, "well just go out to the kitchen
and wait. It's quiet there, and away
from the rest of the house, and Wen
be perfectly safe" To the kitchen,
then, they hurried, and found real
comfort in its smaIlness and secure
ness. Prudence raked up the dying
emhers Of the fire, and Fairy drew the
blinds to their lowest limits. The
twins and Connie trailed them fear
fully at every step.
Every breath of wind against the
windows drew startled cries from the
Younger girls, and both Fairy and Plu-
dcnce were white with anxiety when
they heard the loud voices of the Al
lans outside the kitchen door. Pru-
deuce began crying uoryously the mo-
mcut the two angels of mercy ap-
pcarod before her, and Fairy told their .
tale Of woe.

ENGLAND THE HAVEN
 FOR FLEEING ROY ALTY

England for more than century las been a place Of refuge for mon- arehs who had good reason to think that their heads were endangered should they tarry in their own coun- try, and for a more numerous and per haps more dangerous throng of polit- ical offenders. among the latter of whom may be mentioned several Ger mans. including Carl Sehurz and Lieb- necht. and several Russians, including the nihilist Stepniak.
 Napoleon L. who sought refuge with
 parfidious Albion got a home with his board and keep at St. Helena; Louis Philippe. King of the French, found sanctuary in England as did Napoleon III. after the reverse of Se- dan and his surrender to Prussia.
 The escape Of Louis Philippe to Eng land on March ?. 1884, was somewhat lacking in dignity but otherwise was success. The king and his queen, Marie Amelie, were conceald for a brief time in 8 summer house at Honfeur. and from there, disguised went by boat 10 Havre, and thence by steamer to England The Queen had become Madame Le Brun" and the King, in a coarse greatcoat, passed with an Fig. fish passport as MT. William Smith
 He was recognized by the ships crew that took him to Havre, and when the stewart went about to collect fares, "Mr Smith" shook his head, as if not understanding French, and the English vice-consul paid the fares and added the necessary tip to the band that was on the boat. The passage from Havre was without incident

 Andrews formerly lived in South Bend and enlisted in Canadian con -iugeut about a year an half ago. The letter was written from some where in France and was dated April F Young Andrews at the time of writing was recovering from bullet wound in his arm. having been in a hospital. which ne assigned as reas- on for not having answered letter written several months ago by Dr. Kniskern.
 No doubt you have read. writes the soldier. "of the great British advance nd victory and also Of the storming and capture by the Canadians of the celebrated Eimy Ridge, which the Ger mans have held ever since they invad ad France.
 This ridge has 8 great history and ] has been called the Ridge Of Death. 9 as there have been nearly 20o. .000 cas- ualties there since the beginning Of this awful war. The French and Ger mans have been the heaviest losers. : The French have tried many times to .ake the ridge from the Germans. but could never clear it Of the enemy. : The French lost 60,o00 men in one at tack. so you can see the importance Of tais position
 Two weeks ago the Canadians were given the opportunity Of capturing the ridge. and that's where I received my wound. Our offensive started just at the break Of dawn. Supported by the British artillery. the Canadians went over the top and there was no stopping them. They struck the German lines al the point Of the bayonet
 The Germans offered little resist ance and surrendered by the thousands Cur gunners were so accurate and kept u0 such Q steady bombardment that it is a wonder any survived. Our boys followed the ombardment with bullets and bayonets.
 The position was carried by evening and the next day the Canadians were miles beyond. They have been gain ! ing ever since.
 This battle will go down in history as one Of the fiercest and most decisive ever fought, as yimy Ridge was the ! key to the entire German western line. Our boys took thousands Of prisoners and hundreds Of guns Of all calibers Canada can well be proud of her sons Our losses were under (deleted by cen 5or1. much less than was expected, thanks 10 our magnificent artillery.
