Flea Critics Terrify,
Says Samuel c. Blythe

The flea government critic jumps
about and asserts its flea view that
unless we reform our state to meet
with the flea momentary flea view the
state mist perish, says Samuel G.
Blythe in McNaught's Monthly.
The flea religious critic has entire
moral disintegration just around the
corner unless flea precepts are needed.
The flea literary critic consigns us to
illiteracy unless our literature con-
forms to his flea standard. The flea
conserver of our morals has us all
sunk in hades unless his standards are
observed.
And so with the flea political critic,
the flea economic critic, the flea social
critic, so with all the fleas. Adopt the
flea view or be eternally doomed and
damned. No flea was ever wrong. In
fleadom there is salvation.
Curiously enough, we allow the f1eas
to annoy US. The idea of taking flea
seriously is preposterous, but we do
take them seriously. Thus showing one
of two things: Either we are too thin
skinned for our habitat, or we have
lost our sense of proportion.
For example, when an English flea,
say, comes over and bites at US, we
shrink from his billings as if that par
ticular flea was saber-toothed tiger
instead of the flea he is. When for
eign flea invades us we hurry out our
defenses instead of pointing out that a
flea is all the invader is. And so with
erful nation in the world, squirm and
shiver before our fieas instead of
cracking them on our national thumb
nail. The f1eas have us terrified. We
fear their f1eabotomy.

watched the detective, disdaining the

You should know best about that"
Sir Timothy rejoined 81 wonder
whether you would mind looking after
Lady Cynthia? l shall be busy for

Francis stepped across the deck to-
wards where Lady Cynthia had been
sitting by her hosts side. They had
passed into the mouth of a tree-hung
strip of the river. The engine was
suddenly shut off. gong was sound
ed. There was a murmur, almost a
sob of relief, as the little Sprinkling
of men and women rose hastily to
their feet and made their way towards
the companionway. Downstairs, in
the saloon, with its white satinwood
panels and rows of swing chairs, heavy
curtains were drawn across the port
holes, all outside light was shut out
from the place. At the further end.
raised slightly from the floor, was a
sanded circle. Sir Timothy made his
way to one of the pillars by its side
and turned around to face the little
company of guests. His voice, though
it seemed scarcely raised above a
whisper, was extraordinarily clear and
distinct. Even Francis, who, with
Lady Cynthia, had found seats only
just inside the door, could hear every
word he said.

sobs

One final horror arrested for mo-

eryone was hysterical. A peer of the
realm, red-eyed and shaking like an

Suddenly all the lights around the
launch famed out, the music stopped.
Sir Timothy came up on deck. On
either side of him was a man in ordi-
nary dinner clothes. The babel of
voices ceased. Everyone was oppressed
by some vague likeness. A GREATNESS
silence ensued.
Ladies and gentlemen" Sir Tim

upon his lips assumed its most mock

The two Sicilians raised their
glasses and bowed expectantly to the
little company. They received, how
ever, q much greater tribute to their
performance than the applause which
they had been expecting. There
reigned everywhere a deadly, stupefied
silence. Only half-stifed sob broke
from Lady Cynthias lips as she
leaned over the rail, her face buried
in her hands, her whole frame shaking.

Timothy went on, ringing the bell,

Lady Cynthia smiled
1T is really a very wonderful par
ty," she murmured
Their host ushered the two men
across the hall, now comparatively
deserted, for every one had settled
down to his or her chosen amusement
down a long passage, through a pri-
vate door which he unlocked with a
Yale key, and into the gymnasium.
There were less thar fifty spectators
seated around the ring, and Francis.
glancing at them hastily, fancied that
he recognized nearly every one of
them. There was Baker, a judge a
couple of actors, Lord Meadowson, the
most renowned of sporting peers. and
a dozen who followed in his footsteps;
a little man who had once been anna
teur champion in the bantam class,
and who was now considered the finest
judge of boxing in the world; a the
atrical manager, the present amateur
boxing champion, and a sprinkling of
others. Sir Timothy and his com
panions took their chairs amidst a
buzz of welcome. Almost immediate
ly, the man who was in charge of the
proceedings, and whose name was Har-
rison. rose from his place.
Gentlemen" he said this Is
sporting contest, but one under usual
rules and usual conditions. An anna
teur, who tips the scales at twelve
stone seven, who has never engaged
in boxing contest in his life, is
matched against a young man from
different sphere of life, who intends to
adopt the ring as his profession, but
who has never as yet fought in public.
Names, gentlemen, as you know. are
seldom mentioned here. / will only
say that the first in the ring is the
nominee of our friend and host, Sir
Timothy Brast second comes the
nominee Of Lord Meadowson."
Wilmore, notwithstanding his pre-
knowledge, gave a little gasp. The
young man who stood now within a
few yards of him, carelessly swinging
his gloves in his hand. was without
doubt his missing brother. He looked
well and in the pink of condition; not
only well but entirely confident and
at his ease. His opponent on the other
hand, sturdier man, a few inches
shorter, was nervous and awkward,
though none the less determinations
ing. Sir Timothy rose and whispered
in Harrison's ear. The latter nodded.
In very few moments the prelim-
inaries were concluded. the fight be-
gun.

Francis, glad of a moment or two's
solitude in which to rearrange his
somewhat distorted sensations, found
an empty space in the stern of the
launch and stood leaning over the rail.
His pulses were still tingling with the
indubitable excitement of the last half
hour. 1t was all there, even now, be-
fore his eyes like a cinematograph
picture-the duel between those two
men, duel of knowledge, of strength,
of science, of courage. From begin
ming to end, there had been no mo-
ment when Francis had felt that he
was looking on at what was in any
way degrading or immoral spectacle.
Each man had fought in his way to
win. Young Wilmore, graceful as a
panther, with keen, joyous desire of
youth for supremacy written in his
face and in the logged lines of his
mouth; the budding champion from
the East end less graceful, perhaps,
but with even more strength and at
least as much determination, had GER
tainly done his best to justify his Sc
scored. There had been no undue
feinting, no holding, few of the tricks
of the professional ring. 1t was a
fight to a finish or until Harrison
gave the word. And the better man
had won. But even that Knockout
blow which Reggie Wilmore had de-
ifvered after a wonderful feint, had
bad little that was cruel in it, There
was something beautiful almost in
| the strength and grace with which it
had been delivered-the breathless
| eagerness, the waiting, the end
He heard Sir Timothy's voice
few yards away, and turned to look
at him. He had just come from be-
low, and had paused opposite a man
who had been standing little apart
from the others, one of the few who
was wearing an overcoat, as though
| he felt the cold. In the background
were the two servants who had guard
ed the gangway.
''Mr. Manuel Lotto" Sir Timothy
said-"or shall 1 say Mr.. Shopland?-

The two men suddenly stepped for
ward. Shopland made no protest, at
tempted no struggle. They lifted him
off his feet as though he were a baby,
and a moment later there was a splash
in the water. They threw a life-Delt
after him.

othy remarked, as he leaned over the
side. "Ah! / see that even in his
