CHAPTER VIII.—Continued.
No animal swimming out In the
darkness nlong the shore, no heavy
salmon surging, could have set the|
whole shore nflood as though the
wash from a great boat were rolling
In. Could It have been the overflow,
through the Weir Brook, of some
cloudburst far back in the forest.
This was the only way I could account

from their warped bodies a monster
which he calls the Xln. This monster
Is horrible, fogrit not only lives In Its
own body, but it has thousands of
loathsome satellites—living creatures
without mouths, blind, that move when
the Xln moves, like a mandarin and
his eseort. They are part of the Xln
although they are not attached. Yet
it one of these satellites Is Injured the,
Xln writhes in agony. It Is fearful—
this huge living bulk and these crea-
tures spread out like severed lingers
that wriggle around a hideous band.
"Who told you this?”
"My stepfather.”
"Do you believe It?"
“Yes. 1 have seen one of the Xln’s
creatures.”
•Where. Ysonde?"
■Here In the woods.”
‘Then you believe there Is n Xln
here V**
'There must be—perhaps In the
lake—" •
"Oh, Xlns inhabit lakes?”
"Yes, and the Beven seas. I am not
afraid here.”
"Why?"
“Because I wear the symbol of the
Kuen-Yuln.”
"Then I am not safe.” I smiled.
“Yes, you are, for 1 hold you in my
arms. Shall I tell you more about the
Xln? When the Xln Is about to do to
death a man, the Yeth-hounds gallop
through the night—"
“What are the Yeth-hounds,
Ysonde?" ,
"The Yeth-hounds are dogs without
heads. They are spirits of murdered
children, which pass through the
woods at night, making a walling
noise.”
"Do you believe this?"
"Yes, for 1 have worn the yellow
lotus—”
“The yellow lotus—"
"Yellow is the symbol of faith—’’
<• Where?*'
“In Ylan,” she said, faintly.
After a while I said: “Ysonde, you
know there Is a God?”
“God and Xangl are one."
“Have you ever heard of Christ?”
"No.” she answered, softly.
The wind began again among the
tree tops. I felt her hands closing In
mine.
“Ysonde." I asked again, "do you be-
lieve In sorcerers?”
“Yes, the Kuen-Yuln are sorcerers;
Yue-Laou Is a sorcerer.”
“Have you seen sorcery?”
“Yes, the reptile satellite of the
Xln—”
“Anything else?”
"My charm—the golden ball, the
symbol of the Kuen-Yuln. Have you
seen It change—have you seen the rep-
tiles writhe—?"
“Yes,” said I, shortly, and then re-
mained silent, for a sudden shiver of
apprehension had seised me. Barrls
also had spoken gravely, ominously
of the sorcerers, the Kuen-Yuln, and I
had seen with my own eyes the graven
reptiles turning and twisting on the
glowing globe.
"Still,” said I, aloud, "God lives and
sorcery Is but a name.”
"Ah,” murmured Ysonde, drawing
closer to me, “they sny, In Ylan, the

long mournful howl—a cry so un-
earthly that for a moment our hearts
stopped.
"The Yeth-hounds!" sobbed Ysonde;
"do you hear!—they are passing
through the forest! The Xtn is nrsr!
Then all around us In the dry sedge
grasses came s rustle as If some small
animal were creeping, and a damp
acrid odor filled the air. I know ths
smell, 1 saw the spidery, crab-llke
creatures swarm out around me and
drag their soft yellow hairy bodies
across the shrinking grasses. They
passed, hundreds of them, poisoning
the air, tumbling, writhing, crawling
with their blind, mouthless heads
raised. Birds, half asleep and con-
fused by the darkness, fluttered away
before them in helpless flight; rab-
bits sprang from their forms, weasels
glided away like flying shadows. What
remained of the forest creatures rose
and fled from the loathsome Invasion.
1 heard the squeak of a terrified hare,
the short stampeding of a deer and the
lumbering gallop of a bear; and all
tho time I was choking, half suffocated
by the poisoned air.
Then, as I struggled to free mysell
from the silken snare about me, 1 cast
a glance of deadly fear at the Borcer-
er below, and at the same moment l
saw him turn In his tracks.
“Halt!" cried a voice from the
bushes.
“Barrls!” I shouted, half leaping up
in my agony.

I heard the bang! hang! bang! of a
revolver, and as the sorcerer fell on

Guthrie, Okla—.In the presence of
the five framerB of the bill and other
distinguished company. Governor Has-
kell signed the bill by Eggerman.
Cordell and Morris of the senate, and
Casteel and Maxey of the house, pro-
viding for the sale of 56 per cent of
the surface area of the school lands
of the state of Oklahoma, valued ap-
proximately at 112,000,000.
Following the signing of the bill
there was an Immediate scramble for
the several pens with which the gov-
ernor signed. Among those securing
such souvenirs were Mrs. Roy Hoff-
man, wife of Colonel Roy Hoffman,
and State Senator Elmer J. Thomaa,
of Lawton.
Governor Haskell Immediately
transmitted to the legislature a mes-
sage notifying It of the approvul of
the bill. In his message the governor
states that he believes the great Im-
portance of the bill to the people of
Oklahoma warronts further mention

Guthrie. Okla—After amending
and substituting material to the "good
roads" bill by Putnam of Oklahoma
City, until It more regembled In 1-dk
a code of laws than a single measur?.
the house divided the unwleldly bill
and finally passed and sent to the sen-
ate the first 59 sections, leaving tho
remainder to follow as "Good Roads
Bill No. 2." The first section of the
bill contains practically the nucleus
of the system for good road building
as worked out by the various bill
makers. The portion to follow con-
sists more of detail. Including, how-
ever, the Important matter of bonds
for roads.
That which Anally pass may be
called combines the working of roads
by township and county directions,
differing In no great respect from tho
old territorial law and being purely a
"farmer’s law," and the working or
state convicts under a state roads
commissioner on a Bystem of etate
roads of wide magnitude.

Large Trade in Dutch Bulbs.
According to a recently Issued Brit-
Ish consular report, th\> trade lu Dutch
Burba continues to Increase. There
•re In Holland 19,000 acres of bulb
farnw. producing yearly some 16,000
tons of bulbs for export. Nearly half
of this conies to the United Kingdom.
It Is remarkable that the Dutch thus
maintain their supremacy, and can
still produce better bulbs than Eng-
lish florists. Some attribute this to
'the peculiarity of the -soil of Holland,
and the bulb farms are mostly on an
area between Leyden and Haarlem,
recently reclaimed from the ta-a. The
Illy bulb trade, however, has passed al-
most entirely to Japan.

Then an awful thing occurred. Up
out of the black lake reared a shadow,
a nameless, shapeless mass, headless,
sightless, gigantic, gaping from end
to end. . .
A great wave struck Barrls and he
fell, another washed him up on the
pebbles, another whirled him back into
the water and then—and then the
thing fell over him—and I fainted.
This, then. Is all that I know con-
cerning Yue-Laou and the Xln. I do
not fear the ridicule of sclentlsta or of
the press for I have told the truth.
Barrls Is gone and the thing that killed

presses the belief that the lessees
have helped largely to make the val-
pes that are now attached to these
lands and are entitled to liberal con-
sideration and states that he would
personally favor some further con
cessions to the lessees but believes
that time would tend to produce lesa
favorable consideration for them.
He also states as his opinion that
the people at an early date w’U de-

der of the school land, that the pres-
ent bill meets the approval of a great
majority of the people of the state,
since the needs of the state tor Pub-

Guthrie, Okla.—The senate passed
finally the Taylor bill amindlng the
primary law of last year In several Im-
portant particulars. The only change
made on third reading was the adop,
tlon of an amendment offered by Sen
ator Davis, requiring the names on
the primary ballot to be printed ta
alphabetical ortter. Senator Taylor i
Idea was that the names should b«
printed In the order In which petl
tlons were filed.
One of the Important changes mad*
by this bill Is the elimination of the
petitions now necessary for a candi-
date to get his name upon the primary
ballot. All that will be necessary un
der the new procedure Is for- the can-
didate to file his application with the
secretary of state or tte county elec
tlon board, as the case may be.
The requirement of registration for
the primaries Is abolished and the
system of official counters now In
force at the general -elections Is also
put In force for the primaries.
