CHAPTER VI.
At the Foot of the Cliff.

At the Foot of the Cliff.
 The next afternoon I went to Paul street and found M. Dubois at home.
 When I explained that I wanted to secure two passages to St. Boniface his brows contracted.
 "Dieu! So you, too, are going to the Chateau Duchaine !" he exclaimed. ''Is there not room for two more on the boat of Captain Duhamel?"
 "Why do you suppose that l am go- 1 ing to the Chateau Duchaine?" l in- quired angrily.
 He f1ared up too. 'Diable!" he burst out, ''Do you suppose all Quebec does ] not know what is in the wind? But since you are so ignorant, monsieur, l will enlighten you. Let us suppose that the affairs of M. Charles Du- | chaine have interested a gentleman of business and politics whom we will call M. Leroux-just for the sake of giving him a name, you understand" he resumed, looking at me malicfously. And this M. Leroux imagines that there is more than spruce timber to be found on the seigniory. Bien, but con- sider further that this M. Leroux is a mole, as wet call our politicians here. It would not suit him to appear openly in, such an enterprise?
 "Let us say, then, that he arranges with Captain Duhamel to convey his party to St. Boniface, to which point he will go secretly by another route, and that he will join them there and in short. monsieur, take yourself and your friend to the devil, for I won't give you passage. Go back to him for know he sent you to me-and tell him he cannot hire Alfred Dubois for all the money in Canada"
 q am glad to hear you say that" answered., because Leroux is no friend of mine. Now listen to me, Cap tain Dubois. It is true that I am go4 ing to the chateau. if I can get there,

Sad Fate of Chinese Widows.

Very few Chinese widows ever re marry. As a rule, customs of society do not go further, but in some parts of Fukien the self-destructiOn of widows in their devotion to their dead hus- bands has assumed almost barbarous forms. For example, when a man dies his wife will generally declare her in- tention to kill herself to demonstrate her faithfulness toward him. Then the elders of the family will cause a high stage to be erected and invite their relatives, friends and acquaint- ances to witness the heroic deed. When the appointed hour has come and the spectators have assembled, the lady will ascend the stage to hang herself amid the admiration and ap- probation of the spectators. Then a stone arch will be erected to her mem- ory, and the family will be regarded as illustrious for possessing such a de voted wife.

BUY DOGS TO CHASE CONNECTS
Police Hounds Are to Be Used on Sing Sing Farm to Run Down Es-
 capinq Prisoners.

New York.-For the purpose of chas- ing convicts who escape from Sing Sings farm at Wingdale, Capt. J. A. Warner of the state cOnstabulary has installed two mammoth police dogs in the Brewster mobilization station.
 Sergt. Charles Broadeld, in charge of the state troopers there, believes the dogs will be able to scent the trail of escaping prisoners who flee from the farm, overtake and capture them. Warden Mover has lost seven prisoners from Wingdale in the last two years. William Thomas, one of the fugitives, was trailed as far as Brooklyn several weeks ago and is still hiding there.
 The police dogs were given to the constabulary by Mrs. L., F. Warner, who had them on her Suntry place near Hampstead, L. I. cn one occa- sion when two convicts fled the farm they stole the prisoners watchdog by bribing it with meat and also stole a horse and rig.

but I did not know that Leroux had made his arrangements already. In brief, he is in pursuit of me and ] have urgent reasons for avoiding him My companion is a lady"
 "Eh! !" he exclaimed, looking stupidly at me.
 And I am anxious to take her to the chateau, where we shall be safe from the man"
 "A lady!" exclaimed the captain. "A young one? Diable! Why didn't you tell me so at first, monsieur? I'll take you. I will do anything for an enemy of Leroux.
 "But lady! I do not know your business, monsieur, but can guess, perhaps"
 But you must not misunderstood me-" I interpOsed. "She is not"
 'Diable It's all right!' said the captain, skipping me upon the back. ''NO explanations Not a word, I as sure you. I am the most discreet of men. Madeleine!"
 This last word was a deep-chested below, and in response a little girl came running in, staggering under the weight of the captains overcoat of raccOOn fur.
 That is my Overcoat voice." he ex- plained, strOking the chiId's head. 'AIy niece, monsieur. By the tone in which I call Madeleine knows whether it is my OvercOat or my pipe or slippers that l want, or whether I am growing hungry"
 I thought that the captains hunger voice must shake the rafters of the old building.
 And now, monsieur" he continued seriously, when we had left the house, 1T am going to tell you as much as I know concerning the plans of that scOundrel. In brief, it is known that a party of his friends has been quar- tered for some time at the chateau they come and go, in fact, and now he is either taking more or the same ones back again, and God knows why he takes them to so deSOlate a region, unless, as the rumOr is, he has, discov- cred coal fields upon the seigniOry and holds NJ.

orioin of Number Symbols.

The origin of our common number symbols has never been clearly es- tablished. but until recently all writers agree that these symbols were trans mitted to Europe by the Arabs, who had obtained them from India. It is very interesting to note that available data relating to the origin of our con- mon number symbols have been care fully re-examined by Carra de Vaux. Among the most surprising results are the following: Our common number symbols originated in Europe and from there were transmitted to the Persians. Both India and Arabia received them from Persia, so that the common term Hindu-Arabic numerals is decidedly misleading. The common numerals did not come from letters of the alphabet, but were formed directly for the pur- pose of representing numbers.

THINK DOCTOR IS MISTREATINC BOY Physician, on Brand of Mercy, Is Beaten by Angry Italian
 Women.
MOTHER GRABS CLUB
Beats Doctor Who Is Trying to Give Sick Lad PiIIs-Neiehbors Take Hand in the Proceedinas-
 Rescued by Autoist.

Chicago-While on an errand of mercy in the Italian district, pr. James E. Smedley, a well-known north side physician and volunteer Red Cross worker, was clubbed into unconscious ness by crowd of excited women, who believed he was ~mistreating his pa tient, little boy.
 The physician is recovering from scalp wounds at his residence, under the care of his wife, a graduate nurse. He is 60 years old, but of powerful physique.
 After being rejected for the army pr. Smedley offered his services to the local Red Cross organization. For months he has given his time to char ity cases, often being called from his bed late at night.
 Gets Emergency Call. F One day recently he received an emergency call to 1912 Vine street, where Tony, the little son of Mrs. Mary Caninino, was ill. It looked like diphtheria.
 The doctor took the boy on his knee and pinched his cheek. Then he tried to slip some pills into the lads mouth, but his patient became rebellious.
 "Come, now, be a good boy" urged the doctor. They'll make you feel better"
 Tony still refused.
 Then the physician resorted to the customary expedient of holding the boys nose, thus forcing him to open his mouth and swallow the pellets.
 Mother Clubs Doctor.
 The mother, who had been friendly, suddenly became infuriated. She
The Connecticut labor press., 1919-06-14

screamed, seized a club and struck Dr. Smedley on the head. He fell to the floor stunned.
 Again and again the heavy club de scended. Her screams brought sev- eral women to the house. They took a hand at the clubbing. Then they locked him in the house and left, pre- sumably to seek some of the male neighbors to wreak further vengeance.
 The physician, bleeding profusely from the nose and from deep scalp decorations, finally broke a window and hailed a passing autoist, who helped him out and took him home.
 '"The woman simply didn't under stand, that was all," said pr. Smed- ley. "She thought I was trying to hurt the boy"
