Assassins of Sir Henry Hughes VII. son Are Formally Acc1lsed-They Are Not Present in Court.

London, June 26 (By Associated Press)-A verdict of wilful murder against James Connolly and James OBrien was returned this afternoon by the coroner's jury in the inquest into the killing of Field Marshal Sir Henry Hughes Wilson, assassinated last Thursday The two men accused did not attend today's hearing on ad- vice of counsel.

H. MacDon- nell solicitor for the prisoners ap- peared in the courtroom and told tho coroner he had advised the accused not to attend todays proceedings.

He could not have told you why, but he was conscious that it az grieved him to find her 50 intimate with this pretty young fellow, who was partly clad, as it appeared in the cast-offs of a policeman. He could not guess her station, but the speech that reached him was cultured in tone and word. He strained to listen.
 That is what my heart desires, Leandre, but l am beset by fears lest your stratagem should be too late. I am to marry this horrible Marquis of Sbrufadelli this very day. He arrives by noon. He comes to sign the con- tract--to make me the Marchioness of Sbrufadeli. Oh." it was cry of
 pain from that tender young heart.
 Save me, Leandre. Save mel You are my only hope"
 So her father was marrying her to a marquis. That implied birth on her side. And yet she was content to pair off with this dull young ad venturer in the tarnished lace!

 Andre Louis looked also in the di- rection of the gap Through 1t emerged a lean, slight man in a rusty cloak and a three-cornered hat worn well down over his pose so as to shade his face.
 Monsieur" said he, with the air of a conspirator, "the time for action has arrived, and so has the Marquis.
 That is why.'
 "Tell me, tell me! Speak," Climene implored him, holding out her hands in a supplication no man of sensl- bility could have resisted. And then on the instant she caught her breath on a faint scream. My father.' she exclaimed, turning distractedly from one to the other of those two. He Ia coming! We are lost!"

 .'Of course there is that. You are sheltered by one of the abuses l con- plained of Rennes I was forgetting"
 Complain of it as much as you please, but meanwhile profit by it. Come, Andre, do as I tell you. Get down from your horse." And then, as he hesitated, she stretched out and caught him by the arm. Her voice was vibrant with earnestness. Andre. you don't realize how seri- ous is your position. You must go away at once. and lie completely lost until my uncle can bring influence to bear to obtain your pardon"

 Why, yes. You see, l have not yet said that I will be Marquise de La Tour d'Azyr It is position that has its advantages. One of them is that it ensures a suitor's complete obedience"

 "At need, I might"

 Her hand fell away from his arm.
 "Oh, you are mad!" she exclaimed, quite out of patience.
 Possibly. But like my madness. There is a thrill in it unknown to such sanity as yours. By your leave, Aline, I think I will ride on to Gavrillac."
 Andre, you must not. It Is death to you." In her alarm she backed her horse, and pulled it across the road to bar his way.

 The approach to Mt. Everest through Tibet is said to be more ac- cessibe and presents greater pros poets of success than from the Nepal side.
 Sir Francis Younghusband an nounced that the Tibetan government had granted him permission 10 attempt the ascent of the mountain by the Tibetan route. It was Sir Francis, who as colonel commanding a British mission to the Forbidden City of Lhasa in 1903-04. opened Tibet to civilization.

 The trigonometrical altitude of Mt. Everset is 29.002 feet; its probable height is 29,141 feet. The next known highest of the Himalayan peaks are Kinchinjunga, 2S.225 feet, and K-2, or Bride ePak, whose altitude is 2S,191 feet.
 The Duke of the Abruzzi, who reached the top of Mt. St. Elias in Alaska 1S,024 feeD and who at one time held the record of farthest north in Arctic exploration, tried to climb k-2 or Bride Peak in 1909, but failed because from whatever point of the compass he advanced he could find no way up to attain the summit At 24,- 500 feet he and his companions were in good physical condition although progress was slow and laborious. q thick mist warned them that to go on would have been madness" This achievement of the Italian explorer, however. is the worlds record for mountain climbing. Bride Peak is in the Karakoram Himalayas. Besides 1t and it's two higher sister peaks, there are in the Himalayas no less than 75 peaks above 24.000 feet. 4S above 25,- 900 feet, Is above 26,o0o feet, and five above 27,OO0 feet.

He had no clear idea of whither he was going, or or whither he should go, All that im- ported at the moment was to put as great a distance as possible between Gavsillac and himself.
 Midway across the vast common to the north of Guignen he came to a halt. Beyond loomed a tall building which he knew 10 be an open barn, standing on the edge Of a long stretch Of meadowland It was as big as house yet consisted of no more than a roof carried upon half a dozen tall brick pillars. But densely packed under the roof was a great stack of hay that promised wNm couch, on so cold night. He cleaied a trough for his body and lying down in it, coNeTeu HlHlSeI tO the neck Wltn the hay he had removed. Within five minutes he was soundly asleep.

 More was not needed to reassure He had overheard enough to know that this was but the case of pair of lovers who, with less to fear of life, were yet-after the manner of their kind-more timid of heart than he.
 In the space of cropped meadow between the barn and the hedge stood man and woman, both young. The man was a well-set-up, comedy fellow. with a fine head of chestnut hair tied in queue by a

 The oath, taken as he held in his arms the body Of his dearest friend, PHILIPPE DE VILMORIN, sent ANDRE-LOuIS MOREAU, young lawyer of Gavrillac. to Rennes and thence to Nantes. where his fervld speeches reused to action the citi- zens who were chafing under tho oppression of the nobility.
 Philippe had been tricked into a duel and brutally murdered because the great MARQUIS DE LA TOUR D'AZYR feared the dangerous gift of elo- quence" which the idealistic di- vinity student possessed. Andre Louis swore to carry on the cause Of his friend and revenge himself on the Marquis for Philippe's death and because the pronigate noble had sued for the hand Of the beautiful ALINE DE KERCADIOu, niece of the gruff
 LORD OF GAvRILLAC, who was popularly believed to be the father of Andre-Louis.
 Returning from Nantes, Andre Louis Is met on the outskirts of IaVrlllac by Allne, who warns him that soldiers are waiting in the town to arrest him for sediton.

 My dear .Aline! That I should have been the cause of so much con- cern and trouble" exclaimed Andre with mocking nonchalance.
 Do you realize that they have come to arrest you?" she asked him, with increasing impatience. You are wanted for sedition. and upon a war rant from M. de Lesdiguieres."
 "Sedition quoth he, and his thoughts flew to that business at Nantes. It was impossible they could have had news of it in Rennes and acted upon it in so short time. Yes, sedition. The sedition of that wicked speech of yours at Rennes on Wednesday,"
 You must not go into Gavrillac," she told him. "and you must get down from your horse, and let me take it. l shall return it to the Breton Arme." You haven't considered what will happen to you if you do such q thing"
