SYNOPSIS.
Author Of
The Adventures c1
Sherlock Holmes

CHAPTER I.-Writing long after the
events described, Jack Calder. Scottish
farmer, tells how, in his childhood, the
fear of invasion by Napoleon. at that
time complete master of Europe. had
gripped the British nation. Following a
false alarm that the French had landed.
Jim Horscroft, the Doctors son, youth of
fifteen, quaIrels with his father over
Joining the army. and from that incident
a lifelong friendship begins between the
boys.
CHAPTER II.-When Jack Is eighteen
his fathers brother dies and his daugh-
ter, Edie, seventeen years, old, comes to
live with her uncle. Attractive personally,
intensely romantic. and seemingly feeling
little sorrow for her fathers death. the
girl is something of a puzzle to the
simple folk OF the Calder home.
CHAPTER III.-Edie makes a play
thing OF Jacks affections. and though al
ways somewhat in awe OF her. a feeling
of deep love for his cousin develops In
the boys heart. Edie reproaches him for
staying at home in idleness while his
country Is at war. Stung by her words,
he declares his intention OF Joining the
army ut once. but she persuades him to
stay. He tells her he loves her and she
apparently returns his affection.

CHAPTER XIII.
The End of the Storm.

OF all the things that seem strange
In that great battle. now that | look
back upon 1t, there was nothing that
was queerer than the way in which 1t
acted on my comrades. For some took
y as though It had been their daily
meat. without question or change. and
others pattered out prayers from the
first gun-fire to the last. and others
again cursed and swore in way that
was creepy to listen to. There was
one. my own left-hand mate, Mike
Threadingham. who kept telling about
his maiden aunt, Sarah, and how she
had left the money which had been
promised to him to home for the chill
dren of drowned sailors. Again and
again he told me this story, and yet.
when the battle was over he took his
oath that he had never opened his
lips all day. AS to me. l cannot say
whether | spoke or not. but 1 know
that my mind and my memory were
clearer than | can ever remember
them, and was thinking all the time
about the old folks at home, and about
cousin Edie with her saucy. dancing
eyes, anu LIE l<lSSdt WIFI Ills tdl .
whiskers. and all the doings at West
Inch which had ended by bringing us
here on the plains of Belgium as a
cockshot for two hundred and fifty
cannon.
During all this time the roaring of
those guns had been something dread
full to listen to, but now they suddenly
died away, though 1t was like the lull
In thunderstorm when one feels
the fringe of 1t. There was still
mighty noise on the distant wing,
where the Prussans were pushing
their way onward, but that was two
miles away. The other batteries, both
French and English, were silent. and
the smoke cleared so that the armies
could see a little of each other. 1t was
n dreary sight along our ridge, for
there seemed to be just few scat
tered knots of red, and the lines of
green where the German legion stood,
while the masses of the French ap-
peared to be as thick as ever, though,
OF course, we knew that they must
have lost many thousands in these at
tacks. We heard great cheering and
shouting from among them, and then
suddenly all their batteries opened to-
gether with roar which made the din
of the earlier part seem nothing in
comparison. 1t might well be twice as
loud, for every battery was twice as
near, being moved right up to point
blank range. with huge masses Of horse
between and behind them to guard
them from attack.
When that devils roar burst upon

Celebrate Silver Wedding Annivers.r,

The most important social event OF
the season was the dancing party
given at the City Hall, by friends of
Mr.. and Mrs. Eph Bailey, on Thurs
day evening, September 80, in honor
of their twenty-ffth wedding ami
versary.
The Cornet Band, of which Mr..
Bailey is member, serenaded the
couple at their home on upper Ma
room avenue at 7:30 o'clock and they
We're completely surprised. After the
band had played several selections,
Mr.. and Mrs. Bailey were invited to
the City Hall where jolly crowd of
about forty-five couples awaited them.
Excellent music and all the old
fashioned dances helped pass the
evening all too quickly.
At midnight, Mr.. Jackson Mooney
presented the couple with numerous
beautiful silver presents, the gifts
of their many friends. A most de-
licious lunch consisting of sand
witches, pickles, coffee, cake and fruit
was then served.
Dancing was resumed after lunch
and lasted until a. m, the guests
then departing, wishing Mr. and Mrs
Bailey another twenty-five years of
married bliss.

CHAPTER 1v.-J,l qoracroft retinn
from Edinburgh, whes he is studyInt
medicine. Jack tells his chum of Ills en-
gagement to Edie. believing the girl is
sincere. Some days later he witnesses an
unmistalsable display of affection between
Edie and Jim and reproaches his friend.
Jim tells him Edie has promised to marry
him, she laughing at the idea of her en-
gagement to Jack. The two seek the girl
and she declares only fondness for Jack
but love for Jim.
CHAPTER v.-Jack, though deeply
hurt, accepts the situation. News of the
downfall of Napoleon and the end of the
war reach the country. Walking along
the coast, Jim and Calder witness the
landing of a stranger from small boat.
He is completely exhausted and in a dy-
ing condition. They revive him and
against Jim's advice Jack takes him to
the Calder home, where he remains as Q
guest. He gives his name as Bonaven-
ture de Lapp and is evidently man of
distinction
CHAPTER Vide Lapp's fine manners
and stories OF adventure greatly attract
Mrs. Calder and Edie and he is ''at
home" at once. causing vague disquietude
to Jack and open disgust to Jim. He
sends a letter addressed to the king OF
what manner of man he has introduced
to his home. sl-H
CHAPTER vII.-Major Elliott, neigh
Dor and close friend of the Calders and
Jim Horscroft, recognizes De Lapp as a
French officer he has met in Spain. and
the two seem to reach some sort of un-
derstanding. Horscroft goes back to Ed
inburgh to resume his studies. He is to
marry Edie as soon as he has his d.
ploma.
CHAPTER vIII.-Jim is expected back
from Edinburgh within a day or two. and
Jack has strong suspicion that Edie Is
not overanxious to meet him. Walking
with her. they notice and admire a small
vessel standing OF shore. Returning to
the house. Edie finds letter in the gar
den. which she claims is for her. Jack
accuses her of clandestine correspond
ence with De Lapp. and Edie tells him
the Frenchman is her. husband.
CHAPTER Ix.-Astounded by the news
Jack satisfies himself of its truth and
waits to meet De Lapp. The latter laughs
at Jacks threat of what Horscroft will
do when he learns Of the affair.
CHAPTER x.-Arising next morning,
Jack makes the discovery that De Lapr
and Edie have gone He sees them in a
small boat on their way to the vessel he
had noticed the day before. A note left
by De Lapp informs them that his real
name is De Lssac, colonel of a regiment
OF the French Guard. Horscroft returns
with his diploma and learning Edie's
treachery swears to pursue and kill DE-
Lissac. Major Elliott informs them o.
Napoleon's escape from Elba. Horscrof
and Jack go with him to enlist In his
regiment.

O'Dwyer and Costclloe are mem
bers Of the police force Of Shanghai.
In their youth they were both con-

fortune afar both corresponded with
Miss McMeehan. Recently both were
successful In obtaining leaves Of abb
scnce. And both promptly com
municatcd the good news 70 knth-
