Prue, Andrew Haskins and Harvey Brown, charged with stealing $45.00 from W. A. Price, the funeral director, and "Dick" Haskins, charged with assaulting W. A. Price, with a series of cross warrants, was heard in the Police Court by Judge T. Gray Haddon last Wednesday morning and the conflicting statements would have puzzled a Philadelphia lawyer. Attorney Benjamin Lovenstein looked after the interests of Funeral Director W. A. Price and Attorney George Segregation Coming Fine Report of Workers The campaign to raise funds to defeat the Richmond Segregation Ordinance has been extended one week closing on March 11, 1929. This decision was reached in the conference of workers held at the Headquarters of the Defense Committee Monday night last. Several leaders stated that their district had just been organized and requested the additional week to raise the quota assigned their Division. The reports to date show a total of $933.67 raised with three Divisions over the top viz: Fulton and the Counterfeit Christians Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson Discusses Them-Those Dawn Parties Rev. W. T. T. Johnson. D. D. delivered a sermon at the First Bantist Church last Sunday morning. His subject was: "The Real and the Counterfeit Christian." He described in detail the characteristics of the counterfeit member of the church. They do not contribute fully to the support of the church. They attend services at other churches in preference to being present at their own. They speak derogatory of the pastor of their own church. He announced that they attend card parties and enjoy worldly pleasures. He stated that "dawn parties" lasting from one o'clock A. M. until dawn was the latest innovation of these counterfeit Christians. Then he described real Christians who support the church, speak well of the pastor, appreciate and attend prayer meetings. At the conclusion, he announced that an effort would be made next Sunday to raise the one hundred dollar quota asked for, to defray the expense of the segregation case. E. R. Carter made an appeal for one thousand dollars from the men of the church to wipe out the balance due on a debt of five thousand dollars, the other amount having been paid. Rev. L. G. Jordan. D.

FIRST SEGREGA TION CASE HERE JOE COLLINS IN POLICE COURT, ORDINANCE NOT EFFECTIVE. POINT IS RAISED FOR ADJUDICATION. Joe Collins, colored, 65 years of age was in the Police Court last Monday before Judge T. Gray Had don charged with violating the segregation ordinance by moving into the house he had leased at 1225 N. 27th St. The case was continued until the 8th inst. with the understanding that should Judge Haddon be not sitting, it would be further continued until he could hear the case himself. THE FACTS IN THE CASE THE FACTS IN THE CASE. The facts in the case seem to be that Collins leased the house Febuary 18, 1929 and moved in on the 21st. The segregation ordinance was signed by the Mayor February 15th but did not become effective until five days later. This would seem to bar prosecution under the ordinance. Collins was in legal posession of the house from the date of the signing of the lease. The reports from the bedside of John T. Taylor are conflicting as to his present condition. He shows but little improvement, but is himself confident of his ultimate recovery.

The Metropolitan Museum has long led in fostering the development of industrial art in this country. This is the eleventh in its annual series of exhibitions of what is accomplished by our design and manufactured, in those shows, at the first museum display in which everything shown is American-designed and American-made and was produced exclusively for this show, in the modern man-made. Furniture, rugs, fabrics, wall and ceiling decorations, lighting fixtures, tiles, metalwork, silverware, glass, china and all else in the exhibition were especially designed and made for it somewhere in America during the past year.

Herbert Hoover of California is now President of the United States, and he and his family now occupy the White House of the nation. His inaugural address has occasioned much comment. He announces his unequivocal intention to uphold all of the constitutional enactments, including the much debated eighteenth amendment. In this connection he said: "But all this majestic advance should not obscure the constant dangers from which self-government must be safeguarded. The strong man must at all times be alert to the attack of insidious disease. "The most malign of all these dangers today is disregard and disobedience of law. Crime is increasing. Confidence in rigid and speedy justice is decreasing. I am not prepared to believe that this indicates any decay in the moral character of American society. I am not prepared to believe that it indicates an impotence of the Federal Government to enforce its laws. "It is only in part due to the additional burdens imposed upon our judicial system by the eighteenth amendment. The problem is much wider than that. Many influences had increasingly complicated and weakened our law enforcement organization long before the adoption of the eighteenth amendment. "To re-establish the vigor and effectiveness of law enforcement we must critically consider the entire Federal machinery of justice, the redistribution of its functions, the simplification of its procedure, the better selection of juries, and the more effective organization of our agencies of investigation and prosecution that justice may be sure and that it may be swift. While the authority of the Federal Government extends to but a part of our vast system of national, State and local justice, yet the standards which the Federal Government establishes have the most profound influence upon the whole structure." Hus the distinguished California in this dessertation "bitten off more than he can chew?" Can he accomplish this task in the four years allotted to him or in the four years of re-election which are presumed to follow his successful occupying of the presidential chair? It would appear to be more like a twenty year job. It is the result of the condoning of the disregard of the law in dealing with the "brother in black." Still he is right in the open declaratiohs as to his intentions, realizing that he has charge of one of the three co-ordinate branches of the government. The prohibition question has resulted in upsetting many of the fundamental guarantees of the constitution itself. Personal rights and privileges have been flaunted and punishments out of all reason in proportion to the gravity of the offenses committed have been meted. This has brought about a contempt for law, for the rights and privileges of the innocent citizen have not been safeguarded in a blind desire to punish the guilty. This has caused a revulsion of feeling and led thousands to believe that the government itself is unjust and the machinery of legal procedure unreliable in accomplishing its purpose. Still President Hoover's address is a great state paper and must necessarily evoke favorable comment from all citizens who are in favor of upholding the law. Enforce the law as it stands or repeal it is a safe platform for any statesman, and Mr. Hoover is standing squarely upon it. Just what he will do when it comes to the enforcement of the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States remains to be seen. Rev. A. W. Brown, the popular pastor of the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church, will leave next week to conduct revival services at Mont clair. New Jersey. He attended the inauguration ceremonies at Washington Monday. He stated that more colored units were in the parade than had been for twenty years. W. A. Price Stages W. A. Price Stages (Continued from page 1.) mitted knowing these denizens of Seventeenth Street, and Judge Haddon finally expressed himself as having a poor opinion of his judgment in having such associates. Grabbed His Money Price said he had been arrested by the officer for being disorderly in the street. He had $23.00 in his pocket. Dick Haskins grabbed the money. He took out $12.00 and handed the other back to him. Price said he had $45.00 in his pocket. He told of Matthews, the white man, coming to his place on Wednesday morning and asking him, "How's the things?" He offered him a drink, but he declined it. Matthews came back Thursday morning. He told him that he did not want to bother with him, you know you are a crook. Consented to Play Price said he had $18.75 and he collected $30.00 and spent $1.50. Or Friday Matthews cane again, offered him whiskey and wanted him to play. He at first refused, but when Matthews took out the dice, he consented to play. James H. Pruce, Dick Haskins and others were in the place, but only himself and R. M. Matthews were in the game. He took his money and, as he thought, put it in his coat, but later found that he had put it in his overcoat pocket, and he had put his overcoat down. Got His Revolver These parties took the money out of the overcoat and he went into his office, got his revolver and 'demanded that they give him back his money. He demanded that Dick Haskins give him his money. He made Matthews give him $12.00. Bubby pitched $13.00 to win. This statement* was denied by Dick Haskins, Matthews and the others. Judge Haddon listened patiently and finally, with a smile on his countenance, said with the conflict of testimony, the impossibility of the crime, just who was telling the truth, the only thing for him to do was to dismiss all of the warrants. R. M. Matthews, the white man, wanted to know what about his $12.00. Judge Haddon gave him no satisfaction, dismissing it with the statement that it served him right for being in such company. W. A. Price's left eye was nearly back to normal, and when last heard from was waiting for the next funeral. It is needless to say that if Prue, Haskins and one other would be kind enough to die any time this week, they would be pretty sure to be able to receive free burial in a pine coffin at the hands of Undertaker W. A. Price. DR HARRISON AT FIFTH STREET ALL DAY SUNDAY An overflowing crowd is expected at the Fifth Street Baptist Church Sunday, the occasion being the first appearance in Richmond or Dr. R. L.

GOT SPECIAL TRAIN TO RUSH HIM FROM SCENE OF EN= COUNTER=25000 WHITE FOLKS=FEW COLORED THERE. 1 (Continued from last week.) At about this time Rickard was visiting me frequently, at which time we talked of how the campaign preached the fight might be carried on, in order that the public might learn that I was training faithfully, was in good shape and that none of us had any intention of fooling the public. These talks, into which Little was not invited, made him insanely jealous and he became more and more bitter. He pretended to believe that the talks between Rickard and myself concerned some crooked plan, and accused me of many things. Bore the Tirades I had borne all his tirades patiently, believing that he did not mean all he had said, but at this juncture I felt I had to get rid of him. After he left my camp I settled down to real training and things went pleasantly. Flannigan succeeded Little as acting manager. The day of the fight finally arrived. It was a beautiful one—superb weather, excepting for the intense heat, was superb. The atmosphere was as clear as a crystal, and one could see for miles. More than 25,000 people had gathered to watch the fight, and as I looked about me and scanned that sea of white faces I felt the auspiciousness of the occasion. Few Colored Men There There were few men of my own race among the spectators. I realized that my victory in this event meant more than on any previous occasion. It wasn't just the championship that was at stake—it was my own honor, and in the degree the honor of my race. I was well aware of all these things and I sensed that most of that great audience was hostile to me. These things, while they impressed me with the responsibilities that lay upon me, did not disturb or worry me. I was cool and perfectly at ease. I never had any doubt of the outcome. Wanted to Get Home Outside of a contemplation for a moment of the suspiciousness of the gathering, I was thinking for the most part of getting home. That had been my thought when I crawled through the ropes, and as Fury was tying on my gloves I saw in the audience the yardmaster, who had charge of the special trains. I sent Fury to ask him to come and speak to me. When he did so, I told him I wanted to leave right after the fight and that I wished him to make arrangements for my immediate departure. The Impossible Accomplished He said it would be impossible—that it could not be done. I said it must be done, and that if he would do it I would give him a tip that would make plenty of money for him. He stared at me for a moment, then said he would get out on a cruise. "To win me that!" I asked. He said he did. "All right, then," I told him. "Bet on me; I am going to win." I do not know what his winnings were, but he was as good as his word, and two hours of afar the I was on my way to Chicago on the train, which he had安排 for me. Gave Jeffries Choice Place I was the first to enter the ring. There was one shady corner and in it I sent myself. Jeff followed a little later with his seconds, and proposed that we toss a coin for the shady corner. I declined to toss, but offered to relinquish the shade to him, an offer which he accepted, and I moved over into the sun. The crowd gave me a very hearty reception, but that given Jeff was twenty times greater than mine. When the fight started Jeff was a 10 to 4 favorite, but in the fourth round I was the favorite by the same odds. Knew He Could Win Hardly had a blow been struck when I knew that I was Jeff's master. From the start the fight was mine, and, as I have just observed, the fourth round brought the crowd to a realization that Jeff had little chance to win. He fought in his usual style and I was vigorously enduring as vigor and endurance as if. If he had not been fit, and if there had been the smallest parti- cle of dope in him, as some contended, he never could have stood under that hot sun for fifteen rounds withstanding the punishment that I gave him. He fought his best. He brought into play some of the old swings and blows for which he was noted. Brain Active His brain was working keenly, but he found it almost impossible to get through my defense, and at no time did he hurt me. He landed on me frequently, but with no effect. He devoted his attention to fighting and did not take much part in the run of conversation which was going on. About all he said was once when I struck him on the head: "Say, but that's a tough old head," he remarked. As for me, I took part in the palaver that went on, addressing myself particularly to Jim Corbett, a member of Jeff's training staff, who took occasion to send a few jeering THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA remarks in my direction. Wanted to Fight Corbett, Too I told Corbett to come on in the ring, that I would take him on, too. At the same time I was demonstrating that, contrary to Jim's disparaging remarks, I was putting over a good, fast fight. I hit杰杰 at will. There was no place that was beyond my reach, and I landed some stiff jolts on him, but not as stiff as I might have, for I really did not desire to punish him unmercifully or to intimidate him. Jeff never ceased. The spectators urged him on and gave him every possible encouragement, but their cheering turned to moans and groans when they saw he was suffering as he was. Gasps of Astonishment There came up from the ringside grasps of astonishment that turned to cries of pity, and more than once I heard them shout, "Stop it! Stop it!" The great crowd cheered Jeffries for his gift and they pitied him in his suffering, but they did not for a moment lose their admiration for him. As for me, they learned that I was not a quitter; they realized that I had not entered into any crookedness and that Little, Langford and others who had swung much of the betting against me had let them in for a good trimming. How should I be a meritorious one and that the best man had won on his worth or that the entire mill had been clean and square; the crowd was by no means pleased. "White Hope" Failed The "white hope" had failed, and as far as the championship was concerned it was just where it was before the beginning of the fight, except that I had established my rightful claim to it beyond all possible dispute. But from that minute on the hunt for a "white hope" was redoubled, and when it proceeded with so little success other methods were taken to dispose of me. SOUP DAY IN FULTON The 22nd day of February found Mother Earth deeply covered with snow. It was joy and pleasure for the Eastern Star Nursery, No. 141, to do their bit of annual charity work. A large committee had been appointed to carry soup and bread into the homes of the sick and aged. This large dinner had been prepared at the home of Mrs. R. B. Atkins, 1003 Nicholson Street. The Senior boys and girls gathered at the appointed hour. The girls were uniformed in blue dresses, white aprons and caps, which made a lovely picture. The girls and boys worked hard, some slicing bread, others wrapping, others filling pails of soup. Before distributing the dinner photos were taken of various groups. These children are being taught not only to save money, but how to spend it and when. The National Ideal Benefit Society children are constantly doing their bit of charity work, not only among their members, but others as well. So often these Ideal children fill prescriptions for the sick when otherwise they would not be filled so quick. We, the Ideal children, feel very grateful to Mrs. Ruth B. Fields for her assistance.

TEX RICKARD Though Dead Yet Speaketh His Estimate of "Jack" Johnson and the Latter's Description Jeffries-Johnson Fight at Reno, Nevada. RISING MT. ZION Sunday was a day of inspiration and spirit at Zion At 11:30 A.M. the pastor preached a soul stirring sermon to a full audience. Many visitors of note were present. Two very impressive songs were rendered at the close of the service by Mr. Richardson, the gospel singer of Washington, D. C. At 3:30, Rev. S. L. Dumville (white) the pastor of Denny Street Methodist Church preached a sermon on segregation. This service was well attended, there being many white friends present also and all after having heard Dr. Dumville, left proclaiming that they believed while God converted them he converted others At 8 P. M., the reports were made from the women who worked in the woman's rally. The largest amounts were reported by Mrs. O. B. Sims, the next largest were Mrs. Josephine Taylor and Mrs. Rosa Fitzgerald. All the sisters worked zealously and a goodly num ber had the required amount. Our revival will start soon. . Please visit the slick. On Friday night, March 8th Mrs. Sims, assisted by Miss Florence Fields and Mr. Mudge Paris will give a recital at the M. Nebo Baptist Church, West Point, Va., the former parish of Rev. O. B. Sims. We extend to all a cordial welcome to attend our communion Sunday 3:30 P. M. WAKEFIELD, VA. NOTES Mrs. Andrew Morgan died Wednes day, February 27th. Funeral was held Friday, March 1st at Mars Hill TEX RI Though Yet Sp His Estimate of and the Latter Jellries-Jol at Reno, (By Tex Rickard, in collaborat.on Jim Jeffries was not actually knocked down and out by Jack Johnson. In fact, as referee I did not count him out—made no count at all. This statement is made in answer to several requests I have had to tell just how Jack Johnson knocked out Jeffries on that memorable Fourth of July in Reno. The end came after it was very apparent that Jim Jeffries was beaten. Johnson was entirely too clever for him and seemed to have more physical strength. Jack was gradually wearing the big fellow down and had him wobbling about the ring. In the twelfth round, after Jeffries had been knocked down and laid up against the ropes and had showed that he had no more chance of winning Sam Berger jumped in the ring. "That's enough!" he said to me TEX CATCHES JOHNSON'S ARM Just as he said it Johnson had drawn back for a final blow and I caught his arm. That was the end of the fight. Jeffries was on his feet. It was scored, a technical knockout, of course. In a few minutes Johnson would have had him out. Sam Berger was very wise and sensible in stopping it when he did. For me the end of that famous fight was a great relief. My job of refereeing had been no trouble at all. The men fought cleanly, and there was little for me to do except keep them at it. . . . The greatest relief, though, was that the fight, at last, had been successfully pulled off. I knew it was a financial success before we entered the ring. Hundreds of those holding tickets for the fight in San Francisco had exchanged their tickets for seats at Reno. The arena was full. JEFFRIES MAKES MISTAKE. At the very start of the fight. Jeffries made the mistake of trying FIVE N= E. A. M. E. Church. She is survived by her husband, three sons, three daughters and other relatives. . . Mrs. Pauline Boykin is improving. Mrs. C. B.

Mrs. Sarah Nichols of Berling, Va. is very ill. . . The members of the Eastern Star Lodge will give a program at the First Baptist Church Easter Monday night.

One Thin Woman Gained 15 Pounds In 5 Weeks Men and women, weak, thin and miserable, are urged to put on weight and get back their health and strength with McCoy's Tablets. One woman gained 15 pounds in five weeks and that's going fast enough for anyone. McCoy takes all the risk—Read this ironclad guarantee. If after taking 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't gain at least 5 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—your money will be returned. Just ask for McCoy's Tablets at any drug store in America. CKARD h Dead eaketh "Jack" Johnson 's Description Jnson Fight Nevada. RD d h nson on to box with Johnson. The darky was entirely too clever for him. In the first round however, Johnson was extremely cautious. He feinted around to be sure of his ground. For three minutes, he took no chances whatever. Johnson was a very clever ring general. He was trying to see how far he could go. When Jeffries tried to box him, Jack began to grin. . . Cambridge, Md.—The Rev. Dr. W. H. Skipwith international preacher and singer of Richmond, Va. who has been preaching and singing here for the Zion Baptist Church, has been drawing such large crowds of both races, until we were forced to hold services at Waters Opera House last Sunday. And then people had to be turned away. In the afternoon his sermon and songs were so powerful until a white man weighing two hundred or more pounds, leaped to his feet crying "I see the light. I see the light." Rev. Skipwith is certainly a power for God. We would like to keep him here two months. L. H. BAYNEUM, Pastor.

THE CHRISTIAN SABBATH The sacred day a week is not peculiar to the Christian. The observes Friday and the Hebrew keeps the seventh day the other days of the week. From the very beginning the Jewish kept this day for worship and other religious practice in recognition of the God's completed work in creation; commandments were promulgated at Mount Sinai new pronounced but formal attention was called to that which recognized in the right way of living. The Sabbath has always when special thought was given to the Almighty, to him. Such meditation naturally expresses itself in deeds in accord with our prayers. In addition to the three passages indicated above turn to Gen. 28:1:10; Acts 20:7; and Romans 14:4:6. Then vocation will be found in your general or Bible dictionary, "Sabbath," "Sunday" and "Lord's Day." One sacred day a week is not peculiar to the Christian. The Mohammadian observes Friday and the Hebrew keeps the seventh day as distinct from the other days of the week. From the very beginning the followers of Jehovah kept this day for worship and other religious purposes. It began in recognition of the God's completed work in creation. When the Ten Commandments were promulgated at Mount Sinai new principles were not enunciated but formal attention was called to that which had already been recognized in the right way of living. The Sabbath has ever been the day when special thought was given to the Almighty and man's relationship to him. Such meditation naturally expresses itself in worship and then in deeds in accord with our prayers. In addition to the three passages indicated above turn to Genesis 2:2, 3; Matthew 28:1-10; Acts 20:7; and Romans 14:4-6. Then very helpful information will be found in your general or Bible dictionary under the words "Sabbath," "Sunday" and "Lord's Day." All the principles in the Ten Commandments are binding for all time. "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy" was the direction of Jehovah to the Israelites through Moses. Not what man regards as convenient or personally pleasing is to be the content of this sacred day, but it is to be lived according to the intent of Him who demanded that it be kept "holy." One day of rest in seven is needed for the body and much more than that set apart time is required in which to nourish the soul, that eternal spirit in us that will live for ever. A budgeting of our time is called for and this is the only safe way to get in all that must be attended to. The lazy man has no comfort in this fourth commandment for the requirement is six days of sufficiently hard work to provide for the material things of life. After the resurrection of our Lord the first day of the week was observed by common consent as the Christian's Sacred Day. Each first day of the week commemorates that resurrection even as does Easter. A study of the Acts of the Apostles gives numerous references to this change of time and the reason is adequate. The Sacred day had been robbed of much of its blessings by the gardensome prohibitions. Criticism was heaped on the disciples because they picked and ate corn as they went through the fields on the Sabbath. Jesus defended them. There is place for works of necessity and mercy on this "pearl of all the days of the week." There is religion in service even more than in mere formal worship. One test for the right use of this Day is the physical and spiritual condition with which we face the responsibilities of the working days of the week. The Lord's Day can be a blessed delight. John was "in the Spirit on the Lord's Day" when he had the wonderful vision on Patmos and we, too, should so use the Lord's Day that we will come into conscious spiritual relationship with Him. --- SIX JANE Follow Madame Mamie Hightower's famous 24-Hour Beauty Treatment DO THIS TONIGHT BEFORE RETIRING Make a thick lather of GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY SOAP and rub well into the face and neck.

The skin and its cells change and with the constant process of rebuilding we are practically re-made every few years. But after baby teeth have gone the permanent set comes; and after that, your teeth are your teeth, all your life—unless by your neglect you lose them. The tooth-buds of the infant develop prematurely, many months, in front of the child is born. And because of this development the expectant mother must begin to build up in her body the necessary elements required by the child. Calcium, which is richly present in milk, is one of the most important ingredients for the mother to introduce into her own system, for calcium is an actual part of the teeth. If in the last three months that the mother is carrying her baby she does not make up the terrific drain made upon her own system for the development of the teeth and bones of the unborn child, her own bones will become soft through the absorption of the lime salts from them. After the child is born its milk teeth must be carefully attended to, kept scrupulously clean by brushing with a tiny brush and a little milk of magnesia as early as the first two teeth appear.

Hints for the Home by Nancy Hart When the breakfast room is in plain view from the dining room or off the kitchen it is pleasantest to have its color scheme in harmony with the one so near it. One attractive method of working out the scheme is to use reverse colors—that is, if the dining room scheme uses a beige rug with ivory walls and a great deal of soft blue in the draperies, a good combination for the breakfast room might be: A dull blue floor covering, furniure painted a soft French gray-blue, with overcurtains having a dull canary or beige background and a pattern whose design and coloring are in keeping with those in the other room.

ARSENIC, PLEASE, F. R. KRY UNNECESSARY. INVEST DO NOT GAMBLE. In response to warnings from the Federal Reserve, banks withdrew on Friday, $25,000,000 of call loans. The idea was "to discourage speculation." That speculation keeps big banks and their organic profits alive, but that is another story. When loans were called, the rate moved from 6 to 9 per cent. Banks call loans sacrificed 6 per cent on $100,000 and made an additional 3 per cent on about four billions. Even a child on the farm could understand that systematic usury must be minimal. Even as base a thing as a speculator, buying American securities should not be robbed too easily. It is probable that investigation of the Federal Reserve Banks, and its institutional or intentional promotion of bank profits, through usury, will show the latest Federal Reserve action responsible for a loss, widely suffered of three or more billions in nine hours. Why do not Stock Exchange men protect themselves and their customers from financial tyranny. They could establish a great bank, especially for their own purposes. Compiling brokers to make call loans at that bank, on conservative margins of security, at a fair interest rate, and dividing profits among stock exchange members, they might do something that the Federal Reserve, evidently cannot do. Controlling a monopoly of call loans, they could sell $1,000,000,000 worth of stock in an hour. If a father to cure his children of overeating, put arsenic in their food, you would say, "Something wrong with that father." When a paternal Federal Reserve mistaken for the national government, to cure what it considers a speculative, ruins thousands of investors by forcing gratuitous interest rates, you say, "Something wrong with that Federal Reserve Board." The board is unnecessarily excited about four or five billion dollars of brokers' loans. Learned financiers should realize that there is money in this country; part of banks' control.

THE DESPERATE LOVER By E. Phillips Oppenheim ILLUSTRATED BY TRWK.CDRUEN Eighth Installment WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE Palermo is the scene. There an exile, Leonardo di Marioni, has come for love to Adrienne, who returns his life to the Englishman, Lord St. Maurice, who fails in love with Adrienne on sight. Leonardo sees his sister M. Charlin, who tells him his love for Adrienne is hopeless. But he bleads with her to arrange an accidental meeting, to say farewell, bestow Adrienne and him. She consents. That night the Englishman is informed of a report being made to carry off Sigmonia Cartuccio, and Marghera, who are walking by brigands employed by a rejected suitor on a lonely island. He rushes to the scene, and proves to rescue the ladies. Inhamed by the failure of his scheme, Leonardo sees Margharita, who shows him a snows that he was instigated of the tripted attack.

The two men face other ready to fight to the death. Margharia stops the duel by coming just in the nick of time to save the Englishman from his date, with two officers who arrest the exile Leonardo. Leonardo vows vengeance. After 25 years in jail he is again at his hotel, an old broken man with only a few shoes. At his hotel the proprietor, worried about him, advertises for his friends and Leonardo he finds reward by the man he had loved, whom he shoes out of his sight. Then there comes to him the daughter of his sister, whom he greets in great surprise. Leonardo is frightened by the man Count Leonardo tells his niece the story of his love for Margharia. She is sympathetic. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Margharia looks like a beautiful wild animal in her passion. Her hair had fallen all over her face, and she was streaming down her back. Her small white hair clenched and upressed, and her straight, supple figure, painter-like in its grace, was distended until she towered over the little thrunken form before her. Terrible was the gleam in her eyes, and terrible the fixed rigidity of her features. But she was as beautiful as a young goddess in her wrath. "No!!" she cried fiercely, "the Order shall not die! You belong to it still, and I-I, too, swear the oath of engeance! Together we will hunt her "She shall die!" he cried. A slight shudder passed across the girl's face, but she repeated his words "She shall die! But, uncle, you are it. What is it?" She chafed his hands and held him up. He had fainted. "WHERE am I, Mareharita?" She leaned over him, and drew a long deep breath of relief. It was the reward of many weary days and nights of constant watching and carefell nursing. His reason was saved, "In your own room at the hotel," she whispered. "Don't you remember? You were taken ill." He looked at her, helpless and puzzled. Slowly the mists began to roll away. Yes, you were with me; he murmured mildly. "I remember now. I was telling you the story of the past—my past. You are Margharita's child. Yes, I remember. Was it this afternoon?" She kissed his forehead, and then drew back saddly, lest the warm tear which was quivering on her eyelid should fall back upon his face. "Three weeks ago!" He looked wonderingly around—at the little table at his side, where a huge bowl of sweet-scented roses was surrounded by a little army of empty medicine bottles, at Margharita's pale, vain face, and at once a woman's bedside. As you have been nursing me all the time," he whispered. She smiled brightly through the tears which she could not hide. "Of course I have. Who has a better right, I should like to know?" He stiled and closed his eyes. In a few minutes he was asleep. For a fortnight his life had hung upon a thread, and even when the doctor had declared him out of danger, the question of his sanity or insanity quivered upon the balance for another week. He would either awake perfectly reasonable, in all respects his old self, or he would open his eyes upon a world, the keynote to which he had lost forever. In other words he would either awake a perfectly sane man, or hopelessly and incurably insane. There would be no middle course. That was the doctor's verdict And through all those long days and nights Margharita had watched over aim as though he had been her own father. All the passionate sympathy of her warm southern nature had been thrilled by the story of his wrongs. Day by day the sight of his helpless suffering had increased her indignation toward those whom she really believed to have bitterly wronged him. Through those long quiet days and times she never repented them. She never for one moment repented of having allied herself to that wild oath of vengeance, whose echoes often at dead of night seemed still to ring in her ears. Her only fear was that he would emerge from the fierce illness under which he was laboring, so weak A man in a suit stands in front of a woman seated in a chair, who is holding a book and looking at the man. The room is furnished with a fireplace, a desk, and a chair. "Mother, don't you think that Miss Briscoe is a very strange girl?" ened and shaken. That the desire of his life should have passed from him. She had grown to love this shrunken old man. In her girlhood she had heard stories of him from her nurse, and many times the hot tears had stood in her eyes as she conjured up to herself that pathetic figure, waiting and waiting, year by year, for that liberty which was to come only with old age. She had thought of him, sad-eyed and weary, pacing his lonely prison cell, and ever watching through his barred window the little segment into the high-walled court. How he must long for the scent of flowers, the fresh open air, the rustle "Mother, don't you think that Mi of leaves, and the hum of moving insects. How his heart must ache for the sound of men's voices, the touch of their hands, some sense of loving or friendly companionship to break the ice monotony of his weary, stagnant existence. Her imagination had been touched, and she had been all ready to welcome and to love him as a hero and a martyr, even if he had appealed to her in no other way. But when she had seen him stricken down and helpless, with that look of ineffable sadness in his soft dark eyes, it was more than her sympathy which was aroused, more than her imagination which was stirred. Her large pity heart became his absolutely. She was alone in the world, and she must needs love one. For good or for evil, fate had brought this strange old man to her, and woven tis tie between them. He held out his hands; she grasped them fondly. Margharita, she came here!" he whispered. "What, here? Here in this room?" He nodded. "It was two days before you came I was sitting alone in the twilight. The door opened. I thought I was dreaming. It was she, as beautiful as ever, richly dressed, happy, comely She came to pity, to sue for pardon I let her talk, and then, when I has gathered strength, I stood up and cursed her. I thrust her away; I cursed her with the fiercest and cruelest words which my lips could utter I drove the warm color from her cheeks, and the light from her eyes I cursed her till her heart shook with fear. She staggered out of the room a stricken woman. I——" "Tell me her name" "Cartuccio. It is not naday Mantello." "The Lady St. Maurice! She was my mother's friend then?" "Yes." Marsharita's eyes were bright, and her voice trembled. "Listen!" she cried. "When my mother was dying she gave me a letter. If ever you need a friend or help she whispered" go to Lady Maurice. "This letter is to her she will help you for my sake. Uncle late is on our side. Just before I came to you I wrote to Lady St. Maurice. I told her that I was unhappy in my life, and I wished for a situation as a governess. I sent her my mother's letter." "Yes. She offered me a home. If I wished I could teach her little girl." Her voice was trembling, and her eyes, dry and brilliant, were fixed upon his. He was sitting upright in bed, leaning a little forward toward her, and the sunbeam which had stolen in through the parted curtains fell upon his white corpse-like face. A strange look was in his eyes; his fingers clenched tightly. "You will—go?" he asked hoarsely. "You will go to Lady St. Maurice." An answering light shot back from her eyes. She was suddenly pale to the lips. Her voice was hushed as though in fear, but it was firm. "Yes, I shall go. To-night I shall accept her offer." PART III "Mother, don't you think that Miss Briscoe is a very strange girl?" 亦 Lady St. Maurice looked up from her work quickly. Nine o'clock was just striking, and her son only a moment before had replaced his watch in his pocket with an impatient little gesture. "Yes, I do think so," she answered quietly. "I think her very strang indeed. Why do you ask me?" He hurried his shoulders. "I think I should have told that she should want to go. All her evening alone, and that she should have so many long letters to write. Do you think that she quite understands that you would like to come down with us?" "I am quite sure that she does." ss Briscoe is a very strange girl?" Lumley. I even objected to having her come here as a governess at all. Her mother was a dear friend of mine many years ago, and I told Margharita from the first that I would rather have her here as my daughter. She would have been very welcome to a home with us. It was only her pride which made her insist upon coming as Gracie's governess, and I support it in the same feeling which prompts her to keep herself so much closer from us. I am sorry, but I can do no more than I have done toward making her see things differently." Lord Lumley fidgeted about for a minute or two at the hearth. There was a certain reserve in his mind, in which made the task which he had set himself more difficult even than it would have been under ordinary circumstances. Besides, he felt that from her low seat she was watching him intently, and the knowledge did not tend toward setting him more at his ease. "You loved her mother, then?" "I did. She was my dearest friend." "And yet--forgive me if I am wrong--but sometimes I fancy that you do not even like Miss Briscoe." "She will not let me like or dislike her, Lunley." He shook his head. "It isn't that exactly. I have seen you watching her sometimes--as for instance when she sang that Sicilian song here--as though you were—well, almost afraid of her; as though there was something about her which almost repelled you." The Countess laid down her work, and looked steadily into the fire. There was a moment's silence. "You have been a close watcher, Lunley." I admit it. But, tell me, I not mistaken to some purpose. There is no mistaking the look in your face sometimes, when she comes into the room unexpected. If the thing were not absurd I should say that you were afraid of her." Lady St. Maurice held her hand to her side for a moment, as though she felt a sudden pain. She repeated her son's words without looking up at him. "Afraid of her! No, no, Lumley. I am afraid of something else. Although I continually reminded me. It is the shadow of the post which seems to follow her footsteps." A tragic note had suddenly been struck in the conversation between mother and son. Lord Lumley, who had been altogether unprepared for it, was full of interest. "The past!" he repeated. "When past? Tell me all about it, mother." She looked up at him, and he saw that her face was unusually pale. "Lumley, it is only a little ago since your father and I found the history of our strange meeting and message. You remember it?" "Every word! Every word, mother!" "You remember the duel which the Count di Marioni sought to force upon your father, but which I prevented? You remember the means which I was driven to use to prevent it and the oath of vengeance which I took in the Count di Marioni—surely us both?"

(Continued from Page 1) Ed Nicholson's wife is in New York. They all went out that night for a good time, it being Washington's Birthday. They expected to wind up at the Globe theatre, but they never get there. They ended the affair at Sandie Young's room, third floor, 405 East Clay Street. Had Been Drinking The party had been drinking plenty of whiskey and this accounted for the noise they made in climbing those "three flights of gospel stairs," where the devout Sister Jennie Miller was in one room all to herself serving her God and not permitting any of the wicked to secure an entrance therein. They may have had bad breath, and they would women upstairs. It is enough to say that none of them were in a condition to go further. Another Woman There The woman evidently disrobed or was disrobed and the men did the same thing to sin and to enter upon the sleep of death. That independent gas connection proved to be their undoing. The name of the other woman has not been disclosed. Some of the other men in the party are known. There is nothing criminal in the affair, so far as the evidence goes, it being an accident and the result of whiskey. The positive statement is made that they were under the influence of liquor. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: The tragedy which occurred in the three story brick house' 405 E. Clay Street, in which I rent the lower flat, took place without my knowledge. I have never seen Edward Nicholson to know him. He rented a hall room on the third floor from E. W. R. Glenn and his niece and the latter was the first to dcover that the two men and the woman were asphyxiated. I work at Miller and Rhoads store and am not at home during the day from 11 A. M. to 3:30 P. M. It will be seen then that nohe of them were either tenants or patrons of mine or of my husband. Signed: LUCY M. FIELDS.
