Truax hesitated, the retort on the tip of his f ugue only withheld because of Ccast's appealing and sympathetic look Then with a lift of his plump shoulder* he turned away, nodding to his host. Dundas and Coast. "Good-night." he said brusquely, and •o betrayed the effort his self-control <e*t him. "You-ail can send your checks if I am anything ahead.” We il try not to forget, thanks."

Do you think you can remember that?" "Yea." said Coast shortly, annoyed by the other's offensive manner. "I sincerely trust so.

"Aren't you spraining something in your at tempt* to be insolent.

"And you "Link jourself justified in suggesting that I’ve played against you?" Van Tuyl's dark eyes met bis stead ily in a sardonic stare. "I’m the heav iest loser here.” he said VYou've played like a raw amateur every time jou'vc played with me. Interpret that to your liking ” "I shall " Coast got up. white to the ;ips. “|t spells good night to me." liiackstock struck in with a heavy tote of Insincere suavity. "Oh. come now’ it's early yet. Van doesn't know what he's saying—” It «u Van Tuyl* turn to rise; he accomplished the action with surpris ing dignity ir with a slight unsteadi ness "Since when did I appoint a bounder like you to read my mean ing?" he asked crisply. Diuuion nesnaieo. swaying a lit tle as bis temper strained at the leash. “1*11 take that from you in vour present condition. Van Tuyl," he said slowly. in bis nervous anxiety to avert the quarrel. little Dundas blundered and precipitated it "Oh. say now!" ne piped. "We're all good friends. Don t let's us slang one another. Come on. Van Tuyl—let's have a drink and make up." At the suggestion Van Tuyl’s weath ervane humor veered "All right." he assented; "that listens like sense." He turned to the buffet. Dundas with him "Good night. Wackstock." Coast of fered his hand “I'm off now." "Why goodnight.” Hlack stock's mouth smiled, but his speech was mechanical and his eyes, slightly prominent and magnified by thick lenses, met Coast's with an opaque look singularly suggesting a cast. "I'm sorry our party has to break up so early—" "Look here!" Van Tuyl 'swung round with a gias3 half-fuil of raw Scotch in his band. "Aren't you going to Join usr "Thank you. no." said Coast dryly. "No." said ll'.acksicck. "And.” he added, “if 1 were you. Van. I'd chop that drink. It won’t do you a world of good." “Oh?" Van Tuyl smiled acidly. “Don’t you know I reserve the priv ilege of acting as my owu wet-nurse?” “I advised you as a friend, but I’m willing to push the trespass and tell you something you evidently don't know. Van Tuyl; drink makes you ugly." Coast, lingering In anxiety, detected suddenly the gleam of drink-insanity In Van Tuyl's eyes. Alarmed, he moved to place himself between the mea. and in the net received full in . the face what had been intended lor Biackstock—the contents of Van Tuyl’s glass. Half-blinded and choking, he Btepped back, groping for his handkerchief. The alcohol burned bis eyes like liquid fire, and the fumes of it in his throat and nostrils almost strangled him for a moment, preventing his clear under standing of what was taking place. Dimly he heard Van Tuyl raving in | his curiously clear and incisive ac | cents, heard'him stigmatize Black | slock card-sharp and blackguard. ; More vaguely he heard him name Katherine Thaxter—in what connec tion he did not know. On the heels of that something barked hideously; Dundas screamed like a rat; Van Tuyl said: Oh, God!” thickly. Dazed with horror. Coast managed to clear his vision. Biackstock had moved to the other side of the room, where he stood at a small table, the drawer of which he had evidently jerked open the instant before he fired. His feet were well apart end he leaned a little forward, j his large head lowered upon its heavy ! neck. His lips were compressed to ; the loss of their sensual fullness, his j eyes blazed beneath knotted, intent j brows. One hand was clenched by his ; side; the other he’d an automatice pis j tol from whose muzzle a faint vapor j lifted in the still hot air. In a corner little Dundas was hud i died with a face of parchment, mouth i gaping, eyes astare. Both men were watching Van Tuyi. | Coast saw the tali, graceful figure j sway like a pendulum gathering mo to the ether end of the room and threw himself, a dead weight. Into a chair, facing the wall. In the silence that followed Coast could hear his deep and regular respirations, unhur ried, unchecked. After a moment, however, he swung round, dug hts el bows into his knees and buried hU i face in his hands. “Good God!” he said. "Why did I do that?” Dundas coughed nervously and moved toward the door. Blackstock looked up with the face of a thunder cloud. “Where are you going?” Dundas stammered an incoherent excuse. “Well, you stop where you are.1 Get back to that window-seat—and try to keep your miserable teeth still, can't you? D'you think I’m going to let you desert me now. after all I've done for you, you uegrateful rat?” Without a protest Dundas sidled fearfully between him and what had been Van Tuyi. and returned to the 1 window-seat. Blackstock’s glowering gaze fell upon Coast. A sour grimace twisted his mouth. “You’re not a bad fellow. Coast,” ne said—"to stick by me. . . ." Exerting himself. Coast tried to master his aversion and contempt for the man as well as his blind horror of the crime. "Wbat are you going to do?” "Do?" Blackstock jumped up and began to pace to and fro. “What the heil can I do but give myself up?" “You mean that?" The question was involuntarily on Coast's part, wrung from him by sur prise. so difficult he found it to credit the man's sincerity. "Of course," Blackstock explained, simply; "it's too late now to make a get-away. ... It it hadn't been for that racket . . . They'd cop me before I could get out <nf town." He paused, questioning Coast with his In tent stare. "You wouldn't let me off. would you? You'd te'l the police, of course?” “Of course." Coast, with a little cry, dropped to | his knees beside Van Tuyl. Already i the man's eyes were glazing, the movc i ments of the hand that tore at bis j breast were becoming feebly convul i sive. While Coast watched he sbud i dered and died. "Well?” lilackstocks voice boomed | in his ears as the man's hand gripped ' his shoulder. Coast shook off the I grasp anil rose. ‘'You’ve done for him.” he said, wondering al the steadiness of his own voice. Blackstock shook his head, blinking like a man waking from evil dreams. “Why . . .?” he said huskily. He turned away as if to lose sight of the figure huddled at his feet Dundas in his corner whimpered. Blackstock swung to him with an oath. “Shut up, damn you! D’you want—” He clicked his strong white teeth, jumping as the bell of the house telephone interrupted. Then he went heavily to the instrument in the short hallway that led to the en trance to the apartment. Coast heard him jerk down the receiver. "Well?” he demanded savagely. “Yes. An accident.” “One of mv guests. Yes, badly. You'd better call up police headquar ters and tell them to send an ambu lance. ( “And don't let anybody up here un til they come. Understand?” He hung up the receiver with a bang and tramped back into the din ing-room. “That damn' hallboy! ... They beard the racket in the flat below and called him up. . .' . 1 have made a pretty mess of things!” He went to the buffet, carefully avoiding the body, and poured himself & stiff drink, which he swallowed at a gulp. Blackstock strode restlessly back “Three RV Are Cut Out and Children Are Taught to Be Happy Instead. The man In the club had been talk ing politics with a school inspector, until the gentleman declined to dis cuss the subject any more. “We’ll talk about the youngs: ers themselves, for a change,” he said "Do you know that both in France and Belgium reading, writing and arith metic are being omitted from the sub jects taught in infant school? The children are simply taught to be hap py instead! And when they bring their dinners to school, the food has. under the official regulations, to be put into a basket, which must be la beled at the school, and put on a spe cial shelf in a clean, airy place. Fancy such regulations here! Any old news paper and any cupboard is good enough for offr children. "In Germany, toys, are provided for play time, and all little children are compelled to bring a clean pocket hand kerchief to school, and they must have a bath once a week. ’’In Fipland. the tiniest children are taught to wash dolls, dust, sweep, look after flowers, and so on; and in sons Japanese schools a resting room with a bed Is provided, so that over tired children may have a nap!”—Answers, London. The Craze for the Weird. The artistic craving today is for novelty—for new expressions of form and combinations of color, the more strange and weird the better; hence the passing fashion for post-impres sionism and other kindred cults, in which neither truth nor beauty la the inspiring motive.—Connoisseur. \ Blackstock Moved rr.entum. An expression of strained surprise clouded the man’s face. He lurched a step forward and caught himself with a hand on the card-table, and so held steady for an instant while his blank gaze, falling, compre hended the neat black puncture with its widening stain upon the bosom of his shirt. “God . .’’ he said again in a voice of pitiful inquiry. Then be fell, dragging the table over with him. On the sound of that. Blackstock moved for the first time. He drew himself up, relaxed, and dropped the weapon upon the table beside him. His fiance encountered Coast’s, wa vered and turned away. He moistened his lips nervously. fcr the First Time. Blackstock codded as if he found the reply anything but surprising. "Of course. He was your friend.” “Yours, too. Why did you do it?” “This damnable temper of mine. He—didn't you hear?—threatened to tell Kate Thaxter. . . .” Black stock resumed his walk. "What?” "Never mind—something to prevent our marriage.” “And you killed him for that?" Blackstock stopped, staring down at the body. "Yes," he said, in a sub dued voice. "If that's your way. you’d have to murder me also, you know, before you could have married Miss Thaxter." (TO BE CONTINUED.) — I NEW KINO OF INFANT SCHOOL ‘HAVE iMAlERS’ Young German Prince Says This of Americans. Adelbert, Third Son of the Kaiser, Says We Are the Rudest Peo ple in the Whole World. New York.—We are the rudest peo ple In the world. Prince Adelbert, aged 27. third son of the Kaiser, says so and when a prince makes a state ment it is never quite polite—nor safe —to contradict him. The fact that recently two young Americans did re fuse to acknowledge his royal prero gative to "boss" is the reason for his conclusion that "Americans have ab solutely no manners.” The young man has been spending the summer at a famous European pleasure resort, also patronized by a large number of society folk from this country. Ten nis has been the favorite sport of the young folks from “the Statc-s” and the prince, who is a splendid player, made a great many friends among them. One Saturday afternoon he had been watching with great interest the bril liant play of Bernard Dell, the well known athlete of Princeton Univer sity. The game over, he asked Mr. Dell to play a single with him on the morrow. “Sorry,” said Mr. Dell, “tut 1 never play games on Sundays.” “But I ask you.” insisted the prince. "Sorry again.” replied Mr. Dell, “but 1 cannot go against my religious prin ciples—not even for vcu.” Well, this was a situation with which the prince had never had to cope before in the whole course of his life, for when royalty says “1 ask” it means nothing else but “I command” and here was a jierson who refused to be commanded. There was nothing he could do so “he done it,” but it was a wrathy young prince who strode away from the firm-jawed American. Not long after that most astonish ing experience Prir.ce Adelbert. in tending to give a dinner to some ot the Herman nobility passing through — Prirsce Adeibert. the resort, suddenly made up his mind that his American friends should i be his guests as well and. forthwith. ; he walked to the tennis courts and “asked" ail of them. Now it happen ed that a Philadelphia girl was also ' to give a party on the day the royal Germans were to be in the place and. ■ as the prince knew, the Americans ; were to be her guests. So when the | invitation to attend his dinner was given the Americans politely declined it, saying that they "would not disap point Miss Blank for worlds.” Then they resumed their game as if noth ing had happened. The prince was astounded. Could it be possible that any one should dare to turn down a last-minute invitation issued by one ; of royal blood? That ordinarily un ; titled human beings should not be ! willing, yes. should not jump at the I chance to cancel any other engage ment for the honor of sitting at his table was most amazing. But what could he do about it? Nothing, obvi ously. He tried to work off a little of his indignation hv giving out the state ' ment that we were rude and unman I nerly, but the Americans, who had 1 treated him quite as if he were a somewhat too haughty young society ; man, didn't seem to mind greatly. Kuropean society, however, is much excited over the affair, one section sid ing with the prince, maintaining that the invitation of a member of a reign ing house should be regarded as a royal command by everybody, without distinction of nationality; while on the other hand, all the Americans and a great many Europeans are taking the part of Mr. Dell and the girl, argu ing that they were not impolite and only acted quite as sensible young Americans should. Prince Adeibert. who. like the rest af the Kaiser's sons, is rather prepos sessing in appearance and manner, was married three years ago to his cousin. Princess Victoria of Schles wig-Scnderburg. CONVICT’S SILENCE COSTLY Spent Thirteen Years in Prison for Crime Friend Did—Story Wins Parole. Sing Sing. N. Y.—Edward Wise, convict, in whose behalf thousands of dollars have been spent to prove hire guiltless, was released from Sing Sing recently. As he departed he said to Warden Kennedy: “I have been here 13 years for a blow which another mas struck. At my trial 1 refused to testify to save my own life that I might shield an other man.” Wise was indicted for murder in the first degree by the grand jury of New York county, and was convicted and sentenced to death on March 31,! 1S99. Theodore Roosevelt, who was then governor, changed the sentence to life imprisonment. Last week Wise appeared before the board of pardons, which ordered his release. Wise says he kept quiet until be was convicted, and then he told his story. But it was too late. The ether man had disappeared. Wise’s mother is still living in Boston, and he harried there to see her.

IN HOSPITAL NINE MONTHS. _ Awful Tale of Suffering From Kidney Trouble. j Alfred J. O’Brien. Second St., Ster I ling, Colo., says: “I was in the Bal ! timore Marine Hospital nine months.

They wanted to operate on me and 1 went to St. Joseph’s Hospital at Omaha, patting in three months there without any gain. I - ' was pretty wen dis couraged when advised to use Doan’s Kidney Pills.

Foster-Milburn Co., i Buffalo. N. Y. Appetite Not a Necessity. Dr. John R. Murlin of New York, as ' sistant professor of physiology at the j Cornel! universsity medical college, in an article in the October number of the Journal of the Outdoor Life, com pares the food we eat to the fuel used 1 in furnishing steam and power fer an ' engine. In selecting our food he says : that we should eat enough to furnish ! energy for the day's work, but that much more than this is not needed. He holds that the appetite is not a ne cessity for good digestion. “There is no fallacy of nutrition,” he says, j “greater than that which supposes ; that a food cannot be digested and utilized without appetite.” Most of the food we eat, fully four-fifths, goes to | supply energy for our every-day tasks. | while less than one-fifth goes to sun ply building material.
