Louisville to Clarksville; and setting
off at dawn one morning, he strobe all
day long through the silent woods.
The sun was going down when he left
the road, painted to the top Of the
Silver hills and hung himself down on
the ground. Away to the south
stretched the broad and majestic cur
rent Of the Ohio till it passed out Of
sight among the blue hills of Ken
tucky; below him, in the lengthening
shadows of the evening, rose the slen-
der columns of smoke from the cabin
chimneys of Clarksville, a cluster Of
a dozen or so log farmhouses. Be-
yond, across the rushing waters of
the Falls, he could distinguish the
roofs Of Louisville, bright in the SUM-
set light
He looked his fill upon the broad
expanse Of the great river-the Beau
tiful river, as the Indians called it
it's hurrying, tumultuous waters, the
f1atboat ferry, slowly crawling across,
The Benson signal., 1917-02-24

the green snores beyond-and then
scrambled down the steep hillside to
the village, where the smokes of
kitchen fires sent up their friendly sig
nails. At the inn where he rested that
night the tavern keeper indicated a
deserted cabin that stood near the
river bank.
'Thar's the cabin whar Gineral
George Rogers Clark used t. live
pore old critter!'
He's not dead, is he?"
"Him dead? Ye KANT kill him with
ak. I seed him yistaday, over yam"
waving toward Louisville-"pore old
critter-driv the Britishers outen
these parts thirty year gone, an sets
thar crost the river withouten' a fo'-
pence"
David heard him listlessly. His
goods had arrived and were piled in
the tavern lean-to; and as he turned
toward the shack to see that they
were in readiness for the hOmeward
journey in the morning, he heard his
name called by girls voice.
He wheeled and saw Lydia Gran
mer. The girl broke into a laugh at
the expression of utter surprise.
'You here, Lydia?" he cried in
amazement. 'Did you come here from
Corydon? Where's your father?'
"Why, yes, we've been here for
weeks. Fathers gone to see some
friends at Fort Steuben tonight, but
he'll be back soon."
So this was where Cranmer had
gone, after that night ia the smithy
at Corydon. David saw in a flash
that upon himself alone must depend
Cranmer's capture. Hiding his ex-
citement, he pretended to listen to
Lydia with eager pleasure.
She ran on in naive delight at see
ing David once more. They were liv-
ing in the cabin nearest the inn, she
said; and she begged David to come
and talk with her till her father re-
turned. 1t was late when they heard
Cranmer'S voice lifted in a roaring
ballad and distinguished his portly
form moving uncertainty down the
path that led to the cabin.
David felt himself grow hot with
repugnance as the man drew nearer.
He had not seen him since that night
when he had watched the three con-
spirators in the smithy.
Cranmer's heavy steps drew near
er; he started in surprise when he
came on the two figures in the dark
ness and there was a note of relief
in his laughter when he heard David
speak.
"Why, it's young Laurence! Sweet
hearting out here in the dark, you
rogues? Well, when your mother
was your age, Lydia :"

GETTING Free Notices.

That eminent self-advertiser, Houdi-
nj, is just summing up the net results
of his purchase Of the Bernhardt sta
tue. You may possibly remember that
the statue was presented to Nine.
Bernhardt by John Drew, in the name
Of the actors of America, and after
wards was discovered not to have been
paid for. The sculptor's wife sent
Bernhardt bill for it and Bernhardt
promptly responded that she had ac-
cepted it as a gift and would send 1t
back rather than pay for it. A most
embarrassing situation ensued and all
the newspapers commented upon 1t.
Then came Hondini to the fore. He
paid the sculptor's wife for the statue
and wrote Nine. Bernhardt begging her
to keep it with his compliments and
forget an incident which had brought
embarrassment to the door Of the
worlds greatest artistic. HOudini has
just finished tabulating the returns
from his press clippings describing his
highly commendabie act and linking
his name with Bernhardts have been
received. Over half Of them were first
page stories. They average 10 lines in
length. Estimating this advertising at
the pure reading matter rate Of dol
lar line, Houdini calculates that he
has reaped the equivalent of an ex-
penditure of $56,34O. The statue cost
him $36O.-New York Letter.

he said abruptly, "and has provided
for the enlistment of fifty thousand
volunteers in addition"
She let her hands fall to her lap.
"Does that mean war is sure?"
"Not yet. But they talk of it freely.
England will yield to none of our re-
quests"
She smiled proudly to herself at his
use of the word "our." He went on
with his news:
'Mr. Clay wants a stronger navy.
Curious - isn't it?- that Kentucky
should be in harmony with the sea-
board states in this"
"Yes-they called us the wild men
on the Ohio last winter"
He smiled at her flash of resent
ment. "Are you still as eager for
war as you were once"
Toinette shuddered. It was unnec-
essary to reply to the thrust.
David went on evenly:

hostile; till at last he welcomed the
necessity of a journey to replenish
his stock of goods. Colonel Posey
had once more postponed his return

on the business. His supplies were

the great chest walking dresses of
white jaconet muslin; a China robe
Of India twill; prepOsterously inad-

slippers Of white kid and rose-c -colored
silk and a precious packet containing
ferroniere, headband Of fiat gold

gift for his daughter, ordered through
an old friend in New Orleans.
There were to be two weddings in
town that morning-as the weekly
newspaper put it, Mr.. Philip Bell was
to marry the agreeable Miss Rachel
Harbeson and Mr.. Isham Stroud the
agreeable Miss Patsy Sands-and Toi-
nette vacillated deliciously in her
choice of a costume to grace the two
occasions.
The weddings over, she made her
way home in her silken slippers,
swathed herself in an apron and pre-
pared their dinner. David had not
been at either wedding. She was
thinking of him as she busted herself
at the hearth, and old Patrice read
happily from his beloved Arcadia"
She drew the fiat board on which the
cOrnmeal had been baked to golden
brown out from the fire, set the roast
ed wild turkey on the table, pushed
back a flying lock of hair from her
flushed face, and reused her father
from his book. 1t was her happiest
birthday feast in the new land.
In the evening the old gentleman
logged off on horseback to General
HarrisOn'S farm, to pay his respects
and be served with a glass of Ma
deira. Toinette preferred ITO remain
at home-Mr. BlackfOrd would call,
perhaps David as well. She finished
her work and sat down to amuse her.

her in silence. When he spoke it was
