CHAPTER vlll-continued.

"There comes Colonel Hand" said
Mrs. Hacket as she looked out OF the
window. "The poor lonely Whig! He
has nothing to do these days but sit
around the tavern"
Colonel Hand was a surly-looking
man beyond middle age, with large
eyes that showed signs of dissipation.
He had small, dark tuft beneath his
lower lip and thin, black, untidy hair.
"What do We think has happened?"
he asked as he looked down upon us
with majestic movement Of his hand
'The son O. that old Bucktail, Ben
Grimshaw, has been arrested and
brought to Jail for murder"
"For murder?" asked Mr.. and Mrs
Hacket in one breath. -..a
"For bloody murder, sir" the colonel
went on. ut was the shooting Of that
man in the town o. Ballybeen few
weeks ago. Things have come to a
pretty pass in this country, l should
say. Talk about law and order; we
don't know what it means here and
why should we? The party in power
is avowedly opposed TO it-yes, sir. 1t
has fattened upon bribery and corrup-
ton. Do you think that the son o.
Ben Grimshaw will receive punish
at all. He will be protected-you mark
my words"
He bowed and left US. When the
door had closed behind him Mr. Hacket
said:
"Another victim horned by the
Snapdragon! If a man were to be
slain by bear back in the woods
Colonel Hand would look for guilt In
the opposition party. Michael Henry.
whatever the truth may be regarding
the poor boy in Jail, we are in no way
responsible, Away with sadness
What is that?"
Mr.. Hacket inclined his ear and then
added: michael Henry says that he
may be innocent and that we had bet
ter go and see if we can help him.

brave lad" said the schoolmaster. II
heard Of all this and decided that you
would be help to Michael Henry and
a creditable student. Come, let us
90 and pay our compliments to the
senator"
The schoOlmaster and I went over
to Mr.. Wright's house-a white, frame
building which had often been pointed
out to me.
Mrs. Wright, fine-looking lady who
met us at the door, said that the SEN
fatOr had gone over to the mill with his
wheelbarrow.
! "We've plenty of time and we'll wait
for him." said the schoolmaster.
81 see him!" said little John as he
and Ruth ran to the gate and down
the rough plank walk to meet him.
We saw him coming little way
down the street In his shirt-sleeves
with his barrow in front of him. He
stopped and lifted little John in his
arms. and after moment put him
down and embraced Ruth.
"Well, see ye still love the tender
embrace o. the wheelbarrow." said Mr..
Hacket as we approached the senator.
"My embrace Is the tenderer Of the
two" the latter laughed with q look

BRITISH GOVERNMENT NOT AGREE TO SALE
 WITH UNITED STATES

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-New York Tribune special quotes highest ship ping authority in Great Britain ass saying ''it is absolutely untrue that the British government has agreed to the sale of International Mercan- tile Marine to the United States Shipping Board" It was pointed out that no approach had been made to the British government in tho proposed transaction and that nc agreement for transfer of the com pany is anticipated. The London Globe says the purchase of stock of the company by Shipping Board will in no way affect the status of company or it's vessels which are manned by British crews under 20-year agreement of August 1. 1903. It is unthinkable, the Globe that British government would consent to such a suicidal reduction of her merchant marine.

THINKS GERMANY
 MIGHT TAKE AD-
 VANTAGE OF FRANCE

NEW YORK, Jan. 15. = Andre Cheradame, in New York Tribune says Germany must make full repa ration to transform into real and durable victory what is at present only paper victory" He points out that by reason of her preparation Germany's war expenses were less in proportion to population than those of principal allies and that despite conditions of armistice her economic situation is less difficult than that of France. If France has to pay triple taxes to meet wal debt, he suggests, it will mean he, ruin and ultimate victory for Ger many and therefore reparatior should be such that the countries attacked should be as far as possible in a pre-war position. Devastated areas must be restored to former producing proportions. When Ger many stole French iron mines and Belgian coal mines, France had tc contract large foreign debt and i'm provise materials of war at cost of billions. This indirect damage Ger many should be made to pay, as we'll as direct damages.

GEN. PERSHING'S / HAIR SNOW WHITE
 AND FACE SEAMED

LONDON, Jan. 15.-Though i'm pressed with the honor of an invi- tation to dine with General Persh- ing aboard his private car, ten American newspaper correspondents proceeded to ':'load up on beans for they had been warned that the General didn't take a second help ing' and "only pecks at dish and then it is snatched away before you can get it." They filed in, howev- CT, and found a long table in the center of the diner with seats on each side. At the entrance of Pershing there was a smothered ex- clamation of astonshment; his hair was perfectly white but more than ever he carried that bearing which always made him the most distin- guished-looking officer of the Amer ican army. His face was lined, he looked tired, but he proudly wore on his breast the bar of a new Dis tinguished Service Cross and the decoration of the French Legion of Honor. The chief was in much lighter mood than or dinarily and conversed freely with his guests. After a central hand-l shake, his visitors departed and as they slid away into the night, one was heard to whisper: 'T was right about that second helping, though, wasn't F" and the vote in the af- frmative was unanimous.
