CHAPTER VI.
-
The Homo Of Judge eeaucaire.
The road we followed appeared to
be endless, and so rough that soon
climbed down from my seat, an UNI
Dlaned board, uncomfortable enough
under any conditions. in the swaying,
humping cart, and stumbled blindly
along behind, tripping over stumps in
the darkness, and wrenching my
ankles painfully in deep ruts.
It was considerably after ten
O'Clock when we emerged upon an open
plateau. and a glimmer Of stars over
head revealed to me afar of the silver
thread Of the great river. Pete
stopped the straining mule, a feat not
at all difficult Of accomplishment, the
animals sides rising and falling as he
wheezed for breath, and came back
70 where I stood, staring about at the
dimly perceived objects in the fore
ground.

he announced, as soon as he could dis
tinguish my presence, waving his arm
to indicate the direction. "An' I

was conscious that my heart was
beating rapidly. and that my mind was
anything but clear. The problem 'front.'
dng me did not appear SO easily
solved, now that I was fairly up
against 1t, and yet there seemed only
one natural method Of procedure. I
must go at my unpleasant task bold
ly, and In this case only the truth
would serve. I was an officer in the
United States army, and had in my
pocket papers to prove my identity.
These would vouch for me as gem
tleman, and yield me n measure Of au-
:thority. And this fact. once estab-
,iished, ought to give me sufficient
standing in the eyes Of those girls to
compel from them respectful hear
ing. I would tell the story exactly as
! knew It, concealing nothing, and add
ing no unnecessary word, outline my
plan Of action, and then leave them to
decide what they thought best to do.
Strange, unbelievable as the situation
was, proof was not lacking. Della
could be compelled to acknowledge
that Rene was her child-she would
scarcely dare deny this truth In face
of my positive knowledge she, at
least, must know that Judge Beau
.caire had never during his lifetime
given her her freedom This fact
could be established beyond question,
and then they must surely all compre.
bend the necessity of immediate flight
that there remained no other pos
sible means Of escare from hopeless
slavery. Desperate as the chance an
peared, It was the only one.
It dawned upon me now with more
intense force than ever before. the mo.
sition In which / stood, and shrank
from the ordeal. A perfect stranger.

those directly involved In this tragedy,
would have to drag out from the
closet. where 1t had been hidden away

George breathed more deeply than
usual, and. turning his face from
the lovely companion whom he had
Just made his confidant, gazed out Mt

contempt for the squalId lives Of the

laxed momentarily; a more genial
light came into his eyes.

F. w. FULGHUM, OF WILSON,
RECEIVES COPY OF LETTER
WRITTEN BY GOVERNOR.

F. w. Fulghum, of Wilson, chair
man of the Government Thrift Or
ganization for Wilson County, has
received a copy of a letter just wdit-
ten by Governor Beckett, in which
that executive expresses the hope
that the people of this State will
cooperate for the establishment of a
savings society in every school room.
Accompanying the Governors let
ter is a communication from the
State Superintendent of Public In
struction, the Hon. E. G. Brooks,
who not only favors savings SOC
ieties but hopes to see the teaching
of thrift made part Of the regular
work of every school. Superintend-
ent Brooks says he has called the
attention of the directors ;of the
summer schools and Institutes to the
importance of teaching thrift and
saving.
1 wrote them, said Mr.. Brooks,
that the National Government has
three definite aims in insisting on
the teaching of thrift.
Ito give the child broad un-
derstanding of the specific facts and
underlying principles of Thrift.
2.-To create through the schools
a public sentiment in in favor OF
thrift and economy and through this
public sentiment to cultivate the Ma
tional habit of thrift.
By the thrift program the people
of the Old North State, who PC
cording to official reports, rendered
splendid, enduring service during
the war, may derive lasting ben
eft. it is declared, from the lessons
of economy and sacrifices during the
war period.

SHAH OF PERSIA ON HIS WAY
To VISIT LONDON.

ment that the Shah of Persia is on
his way to visit London brought
intimations in the newspapers that
the government would accord him
an enthusiastic welcome nd all

of that other Shah il Victorian
days would be repeated. Al this is
now of no avail as lie persian leg
alton nnounces that The visit Of the
Shah is quite unofficial.
1t is considered improbable that
the Shah is travelling with more
than a few personl attendants. He
is said to be simple in his tastes,
and cannot afford to follow the
tastes of his father who was ac-
companied by brilliant staff of
more than SO persons. While in
London he will likely be housed in

England becomes an important fac
