Ar last a sou serpent has vonturod
near enough to man to havo had his

It is evident that the rovival of
businoss has not yot struck the
royalties. Ulluokalimi Is trying to

Belianzin is in jail at St. Pierre,
Martinique, and King Maliotoa is
racing through the underbrush with
several hundred insurgents a short
length behind. The sv.Itan of Johoro
has not been heard from lately, but
at last account ho was wandering
<;round London disguised as a second
trombone trying to ovii'lo a deputy

The principal of a boy's academy
in Middletown, N. Y.. has inaugu-
rated tho policy of having jury trials
in which tho pupils shall bo the
jurors in all rases of offences against
school discipline. Tho young men
are thus given somo practical ex-
perience in deciding as to tho weight
of evidence. In tho first caso tho
jury unanimously voted a verdict of
acquittal. In the next a vordict of
guiity was rendered, and a severo
punishment was recommended. Tho
experience gainod in jury duty is
undoubtedly educational in its ef-
fects, and tho young men from the
Middletown school will iu aftor llfo
be better fitted for jury duty than
are tho majority of thoso on whom
it is Imposed only aftor tlioy becorao
grown men.

I waH then prepared for tho otTeet
of my wild shot, which had yet hit
truth in tho bull's eyo, or the
Styrian's face belled him. His eyes
quailed bofore mine as 1 pushed my
advantage remorselessly.
"You can seo her," I said, "and
you will. You know that ho died of
eit^or too much or too littlo of

be able 'o t«ka with impunity, and
you will go with mo at onco before a

"You talk !,'Ut ono mad " said the

"I must seo her," ho said at last;

I shook ray bead and went on

"15ut I say you shall,"' he said,
striding closo up to mo and with a
look of absoluto murder iu his face.
"Not I; unloss you aro goiug to

"llow can I do that?" he cried
angrily.
"You can do it," I said, "and you

J'lie b(cycle ridor gets
ma rights at last. Justice \\ heolor
of Chicago, says that wagons must
go around bicyclers. This puts
thing' or the proper basis. It bus
■ •tig bee. conceded that the podes-
tritn bat no rights that llio eyelet
is bound to respect. Ho must run
for his life when the shrill blast ol
tho whistle announces the approach
of the lordly wheelman. Ilut hither-
to there has been some dirticulty in
reducing cabmen, truck drivers and
other stubborn plebeians to proper
subjection. Thoso persons have
shown a disposition to contest the
claim of the wheelman to sole and
exclusivo possession of tho planet.
Justice Wheeler has remcdiod all
this. Ileuccforward no jehu may
venture to stir so long as there is a
bicycle in sight. This is well and
proper. All that is now necessary is
a decision forbidding railroad trains,
cable cars and lire engines to dis-
pute tho right of way witli the
apostles of the whirling wheel. That
will fix things just right.
Tiip. "Wizard of Menlo Park,"
whose other name is Kdison, is re-
ported to bavo come to tho conclu-
sion that sleep is entirely unneces-
sary and may be wholly eliininatod
from physical oconomy by tho use of
electricity. His idea is that sleep
has been only a necessity because
the methods of maintaining an arti-
ficial light have boon so crude and
imperfect that man has sought sleop
simply ti get rid of tho use of the
tallow candle, tho whale-oil lamp or
the flickering pine knot. Now he
has come with his electric light and
proposes to restore m,in to Ills pris-
tine condition of sleeplessness, when
the victim of insomnia will be able
to poke jokes at his sleepy neighbor.
It is probable that Kdlson's success
with his sleep annihilate!' will be
equal to that of the man who put
green go .rules on his horse's c os
and filled his manger with line shav-
ings, but just as he was ready to an-
nounce tho success of his experi-
ment in feeding horses tho brute
upon which ho practiced died ol
starvation No Mr. Kdlson's man
will dio from exhaustion just about
tho time he has learned to live with-
out sleep.

" Jh'ard, the ghost of his
..uer self, ho yet looked beautiful
as a god compared with tho repell-
ant but picturesque figure of the
Styrian, at, tho sight of whom he
stood still, arrested by surprise
whilo Judith witli a cry of joy ran
forward and
•'Lik« a loose blossom on a custv nl'ht '
foil into the arms that Involuntarily
closed around her.
The church hail banned and tho
law had cursed tho pair, yet me- j
thought I never saw more purely j
loving man and wife than these i
twain, upon whom the Styrlan gazed
with sullen eyes and face disfigured 1
with passion and jealous rage
"This man," I said, in answer to
Steve's enquiring glance, "is the
Styrian of whom Seth Treloar told
Judith. When Seth did not return
ho camo over here in search of him, I
and also on anothor and more mvs- j
terious errand."
"An' what may that be?" said j
Stephon, Ills faco suddenly growing
storn and an angry light coming into
his bluo oyes, while Judith pressed |
closcly to him. closely as a loving
woman might cling.
"Ho camo to fetch Judith," 1 said,
"Judith whom ho believed to be
Soth's sister, and who had been '
promised to him as his wife."
"Awh!" said Steve with a tierce j
lnugh, "'ee can toll 'un t' get ulong j
homo to wance. him havo comod ti j
bit late i' th' day, for more reasons
nor one."
"I will see her," said the Styrian
with stubborn lips, "and then I will '
tell you. She cannot bo fur away,
and if you refuse to take mo, that j
fool who brings you food will guide :
mo to her."
"Kind him," I said curtly, "and

Hut the Styrian lingered.
"Will they admit me?"
"Not without nio," 1 said itidiffer- j
ently.
"Then you will como, too," ho j
said. "Seo here, I am rich, I am not
ill-looking, 1 love her, 1 would take '
her away from a shameful death to
give her such a home as she never
dreamt of. Is it likoly that sho will
rcfuso ?"
I looked at tho man, thon thought
of Stephen. Many a woman not cast
in Judith's mould would not have
hesitated between tho rich man of
many Hocks and herds and the poor
fishorman whose daily bread and
llfo were at tho mercy of the waves
"I will take you to her," I said.
"And supposing that she should re
fuse?"
"Coino," he said, and that was all
the answer I got as ho stalked along
the cliff before ma
CHAPTER IX.
Arrived at the jail, I loft the an
gry, impatient man without, while '
1 sought the governor to oxptain to
hliu the state of affairs. 1 also
liegged that a messenger might be
sent for Stephen, though 1 could [
oardly have explained why I wished
him to bo present at the Styrian'*
interview with Judith.
The governor, who had hithorto
held tho worst po.isiblo opinion of
the woman, was inclined to admit
that tho Styrian's appearance cor-
roborated her story, though ho did
not for a moment beliove that his
coming would in any way influonco
her fato.
But I thought differently, and my
heart beat high with hope as 1 loft
him.
Judith, whose figure was almost
entirely concealed by a long cloak,
rose as wo entered tho cell, but kept
her foot on the fishing-not that olio
was making, looking past me with
eyes of sravo wonder at the man fol-
lowing behind mo.
Hu on his part stood abashed nnd
confused beforo the glorious woman
who so far outstripped his ex-
pectations, an 1 so for awhile
llio two stood looking on one
another, then llio color suddenly
flashed into licr face nnd sho sat
down and resumed her work.
"Judith," I said, "I have brought
to you a mail who knew your hus-
band iu Styria, and who arrived last
night in Trevoniek in search of him."
Judith looked up; in a moment sho
knew this was tho man to whom
Soth Treloar had promised her as a
wife, and there was no anger, only
pity in her voice, a< sho said.
"Setli Treloar desavod 'eo, an'
made a fulo o' 'eo, but ho be dead
uuw."
"Ho does not understand English,"
I said; thon I repeated to him what
sho said.
The Styrian answered nothing, his
burning oyes were rootod to the
woman whoso fairnoss was to her
picture us the full flood of sunlight
is to the pa'e glimmar of the moon.
"Judith," I went on, "this man
can save you if he will. He knows
that Seth Treloar died of arsenic ad-
ministe ol by Mnnolf, but under
what conditions I know not, nor can
I persuade him to tell ma H
you can so work upon his pity that
ho will speak, then you will untie
tho knot from about your neck, but
ho will be hard to deal with for ho
lias como over hero to fetch you for
his wife.'1
Judith turned and looked at him.
Somo things are learned in a sec-
ond of tinio from a Avoman's eyes
that a whole volume of written
words might fail to toaeb, and I
know that ho perfectly under:
the dumb entiv iL th" fie >
in-r of that pn - put
" ' the broatbing
woman whoso looks and voice wore
sweet as love?
"Tell her," ho said to me, "that I
will save her on ono condition only,
that she becomes my wifo."
I repeated his words and Judith
stopped back, throwing out her
bands with a grand gesture that ex-
pressed repudiation, disappointment
and scorn more olo iuently than any
words.
"Th' coward!" she said, between
her teeth; "him's worse than brute
beast an' me belongin' to Steve, an'
th' little 'un an' a'. Tell 'un," sho
a ided proudly, "as I'd rather die
Steve's light-o'-love than be wife to
he or any ither man, an' what him
knaws, that 'un can keep, us
did wi out 'tin afore, an' us can do
wi'out 'un agen.
She resumed hor soat, and went
calmly on with her netting, then
suddonly the lire in her eyes flamed
out, and she bowod her head upon
hor arms.
••Steve! Steve!" she said.
It was like a mothor's cry of love
and yearning foreod from a soul
that had schooled itsolf to look
calmly upon death, but to whom a
momentary prospect of life had
renewed all the bitterness of an
undeserved doom, but it woke no
echo of pity in tlio Styrian's breast,
for well enough he know that it was
not for hlin. and bis face hardened
as he looked down upon Iter.
If she would not live to please him,
then she should not live to please
another man, so much I read in his
eyos and the cruel curl of his Hps,
and from this determination I
afterwards knew he never wavered.
"Let her be," he said to me calm-
ly, "she will come to her senses in
tune Where is this Steve on whom
she calls like a bird for her
mate? Bab! she will forget him and
call on mo just as lovingly beforo
she is many months older. She was
born to wear richer clothes—not
such woolen as now distiguros her.
Toll hor that 1 will onrich him also
if she will leave him. anl they will
both live to bless mo, for thoro is
no Buch thing as love when the body
starves."
I gave no heed to him, but turned
to Judith.
"Do not send this man away in
anger," I said; "the key to tho
mystery of Seth Treloar's death is
locked in his breast, and tho only
fingers that can steal or wile it away
from him aro yours."
Judith thrust back the loosened
masses of bronze hair from her faco.
and looked up.
"What 'ud 'ee havo me do?" sho
said. "I'm jest mazed, an' how do
'ee knaw but he be a Hard? Him
warnt here when Soth Treloar died,
an' how can 'un knaw aught about
it'"' she added, exercising the coin
mon s.inso that excitemont had for a
time driven from its stronghold.
"That I oannot tell you," 1 said,
"though ha can. You ask me what
you are to do—something harder
probably, than you have either skill
or strength lav."
"What be it," asked Judith, look-
ing at me with sombro, distrustful
eyes.
••Fool him," I said with energy.
"Does a captive thrust from him the
hand that contains his ransom? Hide
your detestation of his offer, let mo
tell him that you must have time to
think over his proposals, and mean-
while i will watch him, and try to
surprise his secret"
"I canna do't," cried Judith with
heaving breast, and as I lookeT at
har, I realized that she was morally
and physically incapablo of anting n
part ti at the majority of women
would havo filled with consummata
ease.
"How could I sarve 'tin so?" sa'd
Judith reproachfully, "an' aftor Seth
Treloar liev chated 'un ivory way, an'
broffed 'un hore on a fule's errand?
M'appen, too, 'twar this man's gold
as war found i' th' bolt."
"Yes," I said, "he sent It as a
marriage gift to you, but Soth nover
meant it to reach your band."
"Awh!" said Judith, "'tis safe
eno', oil' 'eo'l teo it be paid back to
'un, won't 'ee? Poor .sawl," sho
added with all a Cornishwoman's
sense of justice, "him ha' got
suinmat I' complain o' anyways."
Fondly ho smoothed Judith's hair
as ho spoke, and over her heal tho
two men exchanged looks of hatred
and defianco, that in Stephen were
strongly mingled with triumph.
••Ho Is not to bo despised," I said;
"this man knows tho true secret of
Seth Treloar's death, and a word
from him would open these prison
gates and make Judith a free woman."
Stephen's arms slipped from Ju-
dith and he stood looking at me with
dazed eyes, too deeply stunned for
joy or more than partial compre-
hension.
"Bee 'eo tryin' to mako a fulo o'
me?" he said at last; "'eo had al-
ways a bee i' yer bonnet, an' how
can him knaw aught o' what 'un
warn't here t' see?"
"Awh!" said Judith taking his
hand, "true enulT is't. 1 alius sdd
they was up t' tricks wi' th' pison,
an' furrin' folks has quoor ways, but
whativor him knaws, my dear, us
won't hear a word on't."
"Eh!" said Stophon, "him can
spake for 'ee au' wunnot. But I'll
jest make 'un!"
"Now." said Judith, pulling him
back, "he sets loo.big a p-ic ' it i!
for w- Yi". ,i • .
I • • . i vrieO, arresting his arm
while the two men, of about equal
stature but utterly dissimilar looks,
glared at each other like wild beasts
about to spricg, "when he came to
the hut ho did not even know of your
existenca Blame Seth Treloar, not
liim."
Stephen's arm fell to his side, but
his eyes still shone hatred. As to
Judith, I caught a look on her face
then that at the moment shocked
mo in so good a woman, for so might
look a lioness who saw her mate pun-
ish a bold usurper of his rights.
With difficulty I drew Stephen
aside, whero his angry eyes could
not rest on his rival, and Judith fol-
lowed us and stood beside him
"You are both acting like fools," I
said impatiently; "instead of concili-
ating this man, you are defying him
to do his worst. If he poes away in
his present inood, Judith's last hope
of lining saved goes with hitn "
• Has 'ee a mind t' wheedle 'un?"
said Stephen, instinctively drawing
Judith closer, and with all his jealous
heart in his eyes.
Sho only laughed for answer, and
out of pure deviltry, us I suppose,
clasped both her arms around Ste-
phen's neck and kissed him.

A Washington Post reporter made
the acquaintance the other day of a
hale and vigorous old gentleman who
was visiting Washington from the
"rowdy West," as tho old follow him-
self delightedly styled his homo in a
littlo Western town. "You fellers,"
he remarked, "who work on mornin'
papers have to bo out considerably
late at night, don't you?"
The Post man replied affirmatively.
"Well, I've had to bo out pretty
late myself many a time in my
career, and havo had all sorts of ox-
perioneos in tho dark," said tho old
veteran. "'Spose you go home often
when the moon ought to have shown,
but didn't; no gas light; every door
barred against you, and night's sablo
curtain sabler than Tophet, haven't
you ?"
The reportor acquiesced.
"Hear all sorts of strange sounds;
signs creaking; cats caterwauling;
dogs howling; no placo to run in
even if Julius C esar's ghost should
appear. Isn't that so?" went on tho
cheerful old gentleman.

ted by tho reporter.

A large watch manufacturer says
that Ills cheap watches may bo do
