to the other buildings.

and the buzzing thrum of machinery
bore witness that the mechanics were

room, and wondered what was to be
found under the rear sea of Ben's
car. He could see the car from where
he lay.
Almost on his thought, a high-pow-

down the road and he knew at once
that Memphis Ivy had arrived. He
knew it intuitiyely, even before he Oh

He then tied Dick Hearne securely,
hand and foot, and then dashed him to
one of the top supports of the car.
When he had finished, Hearne was
reasonably safe. He then climbed
under the wheel again and proceeded
on his way. Hearne's lashings were
inconspicuous to any one whom the
car passed.
It was a little after eight in the
morning when Gramont drove into
Paradis. He noticed that two large
automobiles were standing in front OF
the post office, and that about them
were a group Of men who eyed him
and his car with some interest. Pay
ing no attention to these, he drove on
through the town without a halt.
Sweeping out along the north road,
he encountered no one. When at
length he reached the Ledanois farm
he drove in toward the deserted house
and parked the car among some trees
where it could not be seen from the
road.
Leaving the ar, Gramont took his
way toward the bank of the bayou and
followed this in the direction OF the
adjoining property.
He went on to an opening in the
bushes which, over the low rail fence,
gave him a clear view Of the Gumberts
property. There he paused, quickly
drew back, and gained a point whence
he could see without danger of his
presence being discovered. He settled
into immObility and watched.
That Memphis Izzy himself had not

acted. He ducked low and fired from
his pocket. Gramont fired at the same
instant, and the heavy bullet, catching
Charlie the GOog squarely in the chest'
hurled his body half across the room.
With the shots Memphis Izzy flung
himself forward in a headlong rush.
That desperate shot of the little me-
chanic had broker Gramont's right
arm above the wrist; before he could
fire a second time, with the weapon in
his left hand, Gumberts had wrested
the pistol aside and was struggling
with him. The other four came into
the melee full weight.
Gramont went down under a crash
ing blow. over him leaped Memphis
Ivy and rushed into the doorway
then stopped with astounding abrupt
ness and lifted his arms. After him
the other four followed suit. Two men,
painting a little, stood outside the door
and covered them with shotguns.
"Tie EN-, boys" said Gramont, ris-
ing dizzily to his feet. mo, I'm not
hurt-my arms broken, l think, but
let that wait. Got the ones outsider"
A stamping of feet filed the hall,
and other men appeared there.
"Got two of 'em, Gramont!' re
sponded the leader. "The third slipped
in here-ah, there he is!'
Poor Charlie the Goog lay dead on
the foor-a touch of heroic tragedy in
his last desperate action the one great
action Of his life, possibly. He had
realized that it meant doom, yet he
had done what he could.

CITY HALL EVENTS


Last Tuesday afternoon, September
18th. at 2 o'clock (d~istended time), the
Board of wildwood City Commission
ers assembled to hold its 3Sth con-
secutive regular weekly meeting in
1922. AS but fourteen more OF these
1925 stated weekly meetings remain
to be held, all concerned were for
ciblv reminded that the year is rapidly
drawing to a close. Just as every
lane has it's turning" on this mundane
sphere, so also has the great terres-
trial lane or pathway of the earth, it
self. through the labyrinths of space,
it's turning; and it is now towards
one of these sharp, critical curves or
turns in the orbit that our globe is
steadily racing, with such a speed that
in comparison the rushing of the fast
est express train or the flight of the
swiftest airplane, pale into insig-
nificance."
The Commissioners did not seems to
be perturbed at all last Tuesday by
any considerations of this kind. Their
minds were engrossed in less specu-
lative matters. After the minutes of
the September 18th meeting had been
read and approved, reports were called

Perhaps the most romantic wedding
of a Kings daughter to subject OF
her father was that of Lady Isabella
to Enguerrand, Sire de Coucy. Ensuer-
rand was one of the hostages sent by
King John, surnamed lie Bon," King
of France. 1350-64. after John had been
defeated and captured by the British

ward III, at Poitiers in 1856. Ensuer-
rand's mother was Hapsburg.
Edward III. developed strong liking
for Enguerrand and persuaded him to
become one of his subjects. His mar
riage to Isabella followed and he was
made Earl of Bedford. But when Rich
ard III. became King. Enguerrand re-
nounced his title. deserted his wife and
daughter. returned to France and be-
came a Marshal of France. He made
a crusade against the Turks and was
taken prisoner at Metropolis and died in
captivity at Brusa.
There was no similar marriage of a
sovereign's daughter to subject until
the reign of Queen Victoria. when Prin-
cess Louise married the Duke of Argyle.
