The wonderful history of the ancient seers
docs not record to their credit a more strange
nnd extraordinary gilt than Is possessed by
this modern man.
Scientific research has forced the doors of
many a dark chamber of mystery and fobbed
It of its supernatural horrors. Soundness ,
education nnd experience liavo triumphed
over superstition with its legion of fancies.
Hut there Is , and always has been , the pres
ence of an Invisible , intangible and mighty
power operating through chosen beings that
no man can disprove- explain.
It In a lamentable fact tlmt clairvoyance
has suffered much at the hands of charla
tans , who , through their unscrupulous greed
for gain , have brought the profession Into
disrepute and reflected their dishonesty upon
these who nro able and honest. Dut to
condemn the profession on account of such
impostors would bo as unfair and unwise as
It would bo to condemn the- profession of
law becaueo a few of Its members blundered
or plundered In their practice. It has been
tritely said that public opinion Is the court
of last resort , before which all men must
stand on final appeal. This vigilant and
exacting tribunal , whoso inexorable decrees
cannot bo Ignored , has weighed In the balance -
anco the ability of KALDAH , and the ver
dict Is , "Not wanting. " Human llfo Is
made up of a multiplicity of causes and ef
fects and it is Interesting to note how
often our most trivial deeds set Into motion
a chain of .Circumstances that act and react
upon each other until the rreultB are por-
tentlous and Incalculable. Trifles ripen
Into tragedies nnd the bagatelle of today
develops Into the catastrophe of tomorrow.
How many urliappy marriages and painful
separations , how many failures In business ,
hoV many ruined , wrecked or misspent
lives could have been , nnd could yet be ,
prosperous and happy If all were gifted with
the ability of foreseeing the results of their
deeds. But , alas ; It Is given only to a few
to read the mystic future and it should be
comforting to know that you have the op-
portuulty of consulting these who can point
out the dangers aliead , no that you may avoid
them. You may ask , "How shall we know
who Is the tnic and who Is the Impostor ? "
"By tholr work ye shall know them. "
Kalduh convinces his callers by telling their
every trouble , hope , fear , wish and ambi
tion In complete detail ; giving names , dates ,
locations and actual facts concerning your
llfo and circumstances which you know to be
absolutely truj.

CHAPTER. XXXIV.
But Frederick's day of trial was not yet
over. There was a closed door to open , a
ather to sec ( as in hla heart he still called
Ir. Sutherland ) . Then there were frlendn
o face , and foes , under conditions he , bet-
ar than any one else , know were In some
cgardd made worse rather than better by
ho admissions and revelations of this event-
ill day Agnes , for Instance. How could
10 meet her pure gaze ? But It was his
athor ho must first confront , his father tc
whom ho would have to repeat In prlvaU
ho tale which robbed the best of men of
a past , and took from him a eon , almost a
wife , without leaving him one memory cal
culated to console him. Frederick was so
absorbed In this anticipation that he scarcely
noticed the two or three timid hands
stretched out In encouragement toward him ,
and was moving slowly toward the door ,
behind which his father had disappeared so
uany hours before , when ho was recalled
to the Interests of the moment by a slnglj
word uttered not very far from him. It
was simply : "Well ? " But it was uttered
by Knnpp and repeated by Mr. Courtney.
Frederick shuddered , and was hurrying
en when ho found
himself stopped by a
ilteous figure that , with appealing eyes and
timid gestures , stepped up before him. It
was Amabel.
"Forgive ! " tilio murmured , looking Ill7o a
pleading saint. "I did not know. I nnvo.
dreamed you were so much of a man , Fred
erick ; that you bore such a heart , cherished
such griefs , was so
worthy of love and a
woman's admiration. If i had "
Her expression was. eloquent , moro clo
quent than lie had ever seen It , for It had
real feeling In It , but ho put her coldly by.
"When my father's white halro bocoma
Dlock again , and the story of my shame Is
"
'orgotten ' In this never-forgetting world"
then conio back and I will forglvo you. "
And ho was passing on when another
touch detained him. Ho turned , this tlmt
In some impatience , only to meet the frank
eyes of Swoetwator. As ho know very llttl *
of this young man , save that he was th
amateur detective who had by eomo follj
of his own been carried off on the Hesper ,
and who was probably the only man saved
from Its wreck , ho was about to greet him
with some commonplace phrase of con
gratulation when Sweetwater Interrupted
him with the following words :
"I. only wanted to say that It may bo
easier for you to approach your father with
the revelations you are about to make It
you know that In his present frame of mind
ho is much moro likely to bo relieved by
such proofs of Innocence as you can glvo
him than overwhelmed by such as show the
lack of kinship between you. For two
weeks Mr. Sutherland has been bonding un
der the ibellof of your personal criminality
In this matter of Mrs. Webb's death. This
was his secret , which was shared by mo. "
"By you ? "
"Yes , by mo ! I nm moro closely linked
to this affair than you can readily Imagine.
Some day I may bo able to explain rny-
"After Ivo Induced ( o try CASCA-

have said about your father pardon me ,
Mr. Sutherland and net accordingly. Per
haps it .was to tell you this I was forceA
book hero ngalnut my will and best In
terest by tha strongest series of cvcnla
that over lidfttenod to a mnn. But , " ho
added with n'aldelonp look nt the Kroup of
men still hovorlng about the coroner's table ,
"I had rather think it was for some more
( Important office still. Dut this the future
will show the future which I seem to eco
lowering In the faces over there. "
And , waiting lor no reply , ho melted
Into the crowd.
Frederick passed ( it onto to his father.
No ono Interrupted Frederick after ho
had uhut that door behind him , hut the
largo crowd that In the halls and on the
steps of the building awaited his reap
pearance showed thnt the public Interest
was still warm In a matter affecting so
deeply the heart and Interests of their best
citizen. When , therefore , that long-closed
door finally opened and Frederick was seen
escorting Mr. Sutherland on his arm , the
tldo of feeling which 'had ' not yet subsided
slnco Agatha's letters were read vented
Itself In one great sob or relief. For Mr.
Sutherland's face was calmer than when
they had last seen It and his stop moro as
sured , and 'ho ' leaned , or made himself lean ,
on Frederick's arm , as If to Impress upon
all who saw him that the .ties of years
cannot bo shaken off so easily , and that he
still looked upon Frederick ns his son.
But ho was not contented with this dumb
show , eloquent an It was. As the crowd
panted and these two Imposing figures took
their .way down the eteps ilo the carriage
which had been sent for them , Mr .Suther
land cftst ono deep and long glance about
him on the faces ho knew and. . faces ho did
not know , on those who wcro near and
1hoso who were far , and raising his voice ,
which did not tremble as much as might
'have ' been expected , said deliberately :
"My son accompanies mo to Ills home. If
ha should afterward 'bo wanted ho will bo
found at hla own flrcslde. Good day , my
friends. I thank you for the good will you
have this day shown us both. "
Then ho entered the carriage.
The solemn way In which Frederick bared
his head in acknowledgment of this public
recognition of the herd ho still retained on
this ono faithful heart struck awn l > it IV
hearts of all who saw It. So that the car
riage rolled off In silence , clcalng ono of the
most thrilling and ImnresFivo f.'cnes over
witnessed In that timo-wom villas * .
CHAPTER. XXXV.
But alas ! all tides have their ebb as well
as flow , and before Mr. Sutherland and Fred
erick were well out of the main street the
latter became aiwaro that notwithstanding
the respect -with which his explanations had
been received by the jury there were many
of his fellow townsmen who wcro ready to
show dissatisfaction at his .being allowed to
return In freedom to that homo where ho
had still every prospect of telng called
the young master. Doubt , that seed of
ramifying growth , had been planted in
more than ono breast , and whllo It failed
ag yet to .break out Into any open mani
festation , there were evidences enough In
the very restraint visible In such grou-ps of
people as they passed , that suspicion had
not been suppressed or his Inocenco cs-
tabllehod 'by the over favorable verdict of
the coroner's Jury.
To Mr. Sutherland , suffering now from
the reaction following all great efforts ,
much , If not all , of this quiet but sig
nificant display of public feeling passed
unnoticed. 'But to Frederick , alive to the
least look , the least sign that his story had
not been accepted unquestioned , this pas
sage through the town was the occasion of
the most poignant suffering.
For not only did these marks of public
suspicion bespeak possible arraignment In
the future , but through them It became evi
dent that even If io escaped open condem
nation In the courts ho could never hope
for complete reinstatement before the
world , nor , what was to him a still deeper
BOUT-CO of despair , anticipate a day when
Agnes' love and domestic happiness should
make amends to him for the grief and errors
of his more than -wayward youth. Ho could
never marry so pure a 'being ' whllo the
shadow of crltno separated him from the
mass of human beings. Her belief in his
Innocence and the exact truth of his story
( and ho was confident she did 'believe ' him )
could make no difference In this conclusion.
Whllo ho was regarded openly or In dark
corners , or bealdo the humblest fireside , as
a possible criminal , neither Mr. Sutherland
nor her father , nor his own heart even ,
would allow him to offer her anything but a
friend's gratitude , or win from her anything
but a neighbor's sympathy , yet In bidding
goodbyto larger hopes and moro op-
portunato desires he parted with the better
part of his heart , and the only solace re
maining In this world for the boundless
griefs and tragic experiences of hla still
young life. Ho had learned to love through
suffering , only to realize that the very
nature of "his " suffering forbade him to indulge -
dulgo In love.
And this seemed , oven In this hour of
public Justification , a final Judgment. Ho
had told his story and been Tor the moment
believed , but what was there In his life ,
what was there in the facts aa witnessed
by others , what was there In his mother's
loiters and the revelation of their secret
relationship to corroborate his assertions
or to prove- that her hand , and not his , had
held the 'weapon ' when the life-blood gushed
from her devoted breast ? Nothing , noth
ing ! only bis word to stand against all
human probabilities and natural inference ;
only his word and the generous nature ol
the great-hearted woman who had thus
perished 1 Though a dozen of his fellow
citizens had by their verdict professed their
b llef In his word and given him the benefit
of a doubt Involving his llfo as well as his
honor , ho , as well as they , know that neither
the police nor the general public -were given
to sentimentality , and that the question of
his guilt etlll lay open and must remain
BO till his dying day , 'for from the nature
of things no proof of the truth was probable.
BaUy being dead , only God and his own
heart could know that the facts of that
awful half hour were as he had told them.
Had God in his Justice removed In thU
striking way hU only -witness ns a punish
ment for his sins and hla mad indulgence
in acts so little short of crime as to par
take of lt guilt and merit Its obloquy ?
Ho was asking himself this question ai
he bent to fasten the gate. Ills father haO
pasaed In , the carriage bad driven off am
the road was almost solitary , but not quite
As ho leaned his arm over the gate end
turned to take a final glance down the hlll-
eldo he saw , with what feeling no ono wll
ever know , the light figure of Agnes ad
vancing on the arm of ( her father.
Ho would have drawn back , but a better
Impulse intervened and ho stood bis ground
Mr. Halllday , who walked very close to
Agnes , cast her an admonitory glance which
Frederick vrao not elow in Interpreting , then
stopped reluctantly , perhaps , because he flaw
her falter , yerhapa because be knew that an
Interview 'between these two was unavolj-
! able and hnd best bo quickly over.
Frederick found his voice first.
"Agnes , " said ho , "I am glad of this op-
> ortunlty for expressing my gratitude. You
mvo noted like A friend and have corned
my eternal consideration. Even If wo
never spenk again. "
There was a momentary fillcnco. Her
heart , which had drooped under his greet-
ng , rose again. Her eyes , humid with feei
ng , sought his face.
"Why do you speak like that , " eald she.
'Why shouldn't we meet. Docs not every
one recognize your Innocence , and will not
ho w'holo ' world eoon see , as 1 have , that
on have loft the old llfo behind and have
only to bo your new self to win every one's
regard ? "
"Agnes , " returned Frederick , smiling
sadly < is ho observed the sudden alarm vlsl-
blo In her father's face at thcso enthusiastic
words. "You know mo , perhaps , better
than others do and are prepared to believe
ny words and my moro than unhappy story.
But there nro few Agncsca In the world.
People In general will not acquit me , and If
there was ono person who doubted " Mr.
ilalllday bcRan to look relieved "I would
'all to glvo any promise of the now life you
iopo to sco mo lead If I allowed the shadow
under which I undoubtedly rest to fall In
: ho remotest way across yours. You and I
IIRV.O been friends , and will continue such ,
3Ut wo will hold little Intercourse In future ,
: mrd ns I find It to sny so. Docs not Mr.
Halliday consider this right ? As your fattier
ho must. "
Agnes' eyes , leaving Frederick's for a mo
ment , sought her father's. Alas , there was
no mistaking their language. Sighing deeply ,
she again hung her head.
"Too much care for people's opinion , " tlie
murmured , "and too little for what Is best
and noblest In us , I do not recognize the
necessity of a farewell between us any moro
than 1 recognize that any one who saw and
licard you today can believe In your guilt. "
' 'But there are so many who did not hear
d see me. Besides" ( hero ho turned a
little and pointed to the garden in Ills rear )
"for the past week a man I need not state
who , or under vliat authority ho acts has
l > eon In hiding under that arbor , watching
my every movement , and almost counting
my sighs. Yesterday he left for a short
space , but today ho Is back. What doce that
argue , dear friend ? Innocence , completely
recognized , does not call for such guardian
ship. "
The slight form of the young girl bend
ing so Innocently toward him sluidilorcd
Involuntarily at this and her eyes , fright
ened and flashing , swept over the arbor be
fore returning to his face.
'If there Is a. watcher there and If such a
fact proves you to bo In danger of arrest
tor n crlmo you never committed , then It
behooves your friends to show whcro they
stand In this matter , and by lending their
sympathy , glvo you courage and power to
meet the trials before you. "
"Not When they are young girls , " mum-
mured Frederick , and casting a glance at
Mr. Halllday lie stepped softly back.
Agnes Hushed and yielded to her father's
gentle pressure.
"Goodby , my friend , " she said , the quiver
In her toucs sinking deep Into Frederick's
heart. "Some day It will be good morrow , "
and her .head turned back over her shoulder ,
took on a beautiful radlanco that fixed Itself
forever In the hungry heart of , hlm who
watched It disappear. When eho was quite
gene a man , not the ono whom Frederick
had described as lying In folding In the
arbor , but a different one , in fact , no other
than our old frlond the constable , advanced
around the corner of the house and presented
a paper to him.
It was the warrant lor his arrest on a
charge of murder.
CHAPTER , XXXVI.
Frederick's arrest had been conducted so
quickly that no hint of the matter reached
the village before the next morning. Then
the whole town broke Into an uproar and
business was not only suspended , but the
streets and docks overflowed with gesticu
lating men and excited women , carrying on
In every corner anil across Innumerable
doorsteps the endless debate which such an
action on the part of the police necessarily
opened.
But the most agitated face , though the
stillest tongue , was not to be seen in town
that morning , but In a. little cottage on an
arid hill slope overlooking the sea. Hero
Swoetwater sat and communed with his
great monitor , the ocean , and only from his
flashing cyo and the firm set of his lips
could the mother of Sweetwnter see that the
crisis of her son's life was rapidly approachIng -
Ing , and that on the outcome of this long
brooding rested not only his own self-satis
faction , but the Interests of the man moat
dear to him.
Suddenly , from that far horizon upon
which Sweetwater's eye rested with a look
that was almost a demand , came an answer
that flushed him with a hope as great as It
was unexpected. Bounding to his feet , he
confronted his mother with eager eyes and
o tstretchod hand.
"Glvo mo money , all the money wo have
In the house. I have an idea that may bo
worth all I can over make or can ever hope
to havo. If it succeeds , wo save Frederick
Sutherland ; If It falls , I have only to meet
another of Koapp's scornful looks. But it
won't fait ; 'the ' Inspiration came from the
sea , and the sea , you know , Is my second
mother ! "
What this Inspiration ! was ho did not say ,
but it carried him presently Into .town and
landed him in the telegraph ofllcc.
11ha eccno later dn the day , when Fred
erick entered the village under the guar
dianship of the police , was Indescribable.
Mr. Sutherland had Insisted upon accom
panying him , and when that well-loved flg-
uro and white head were recognized , the
throng , which had rapidly collected In the
thoroughfare .leading . to the depot , sue-
cumbed to the feelings occasioned by this
devotion and fen Into a wondering silence.
Frederick had never looked better. There
1a something In the extremity of fate which
brings out a man's best characteristics ,
and this man , having much that was good
in him , showed It at that moment as never
before in his short , but over-eventful llfo.
As the carriage b'topped ' before the court
house on Its way to the train , a glimpse
was given of his handsome head to those
who had. followed him closest , and as there
became visible for the first tlmo In his face ,
so altered under his troubles , a likeness to
their beautiful and commanding Agatha , a
murmur broke out around him that was half
n wall and half a groan , and which affected
him BO that bo turned from his father ,
whoso hand ho was secretly holding , anJ ,
taking the whole seno In with ono flash of
Us eye , was about to speak , when a sudden
hubbub broke out in the direction of the
telegraph ofllce , and a man was seen rush
ing down the street holding a paper high
over his head. It wns Sweetwater.
"News ! " ho cried. "News ! A cable
gram from the Azores ! A Swedish sailor "
But here a ) man with moro authority than
the amateur detective , pushed his way to
the carriage and took off his hat to Mr.
Sutherland.
"I beg your pardon , " said he , "but the ]
prisoner will not leave town today. Im- ,
rortaut evidence has Just reached us. " !
'Mr. ' Sutherland saw that It was In Fred- ]
crick's favor and fainted on hla son's neck.
Aa the people beheld his head fall forward
and observed the look with which Freder
ick received him in his arms they broke into ,
a great < * hout : I
"Nawa ! " they shrieked. "New * ! Fred- i
crick Sutherland Is Innocent ! Bee ! the old ]
man has fainted from Joy ! " And caps went
up and tears fell before a mother's son of ,
them knew what grounds they had for their i
enthusiasm.
Later , they found they were good and
substantial once. Bwwtwater had r - |
mcunbrrol the group of sailors who hnd
passed by the corner of Agatha's house
just nfl Untny fell forward on the window
sill , rind cabling to the captain of the vos-
pol * t the flnrt port at which they wcro
likely to put In , .TVM . fortunate enough to
roeelvo in reply a communication from ono
of the MI who remembered the words she
nhoutod , They wcro Swedish find none of
his mates had understood them , but he re

Methodist ministers of Jersey City have
started a crusade against prevalent forms
of Sabbath desecration. Their line of bat
tle includes opposition to the soiling of Ice
cream , soda water or other refreshments ,
the unneccssarji riding on steam or trolley
cars and the securing of out-of-town min
isters or evangelists for religious services ,
who travel on the Sabbath to reach their
appointments.
O. A. Mygatt of New York City mot with
a serious accident while fishing for tarpon
nt Boca Grande pass , Florida. Ho had been
playing a tarpon tor some time , when the
fish , in its mad efforts to escape , made a
gigantic leap and In its fall struck Mr. My-
galt in tha back of the neck with Its tall.
Both landed in the bottom of the boat. Mr.
Mygntt was knocked senseless and remained
unconscious for about three hours , but has
now recovered. The great wonder is that
ho was not knocked overboard and drowned.
The following fish story Is vouched for by
Mr. G. W. Sutherland , sr. , of Springfield ,
Ky. , whoso reputation for truth and ver
acity Is said to bo above hcproach. Mr.
Sutherland writes : "On last Sunday night
the distillery of Woods & Edelen , situated
on a small branch near Chaplin river , five
relies above the Chaplin Tunnel mill ,
burned. I am told there were 50 barrels of
whisky burned and some ran down the
branch and Into the river and made all the
fifh drunk. They came down to the mill
dam groggy and the boys picked up boat
loads of them whllo In that condition. "
Not the least of a man's troubles about his
clothes Is what his wife thinks of them.
Hero Is where George I. Brown , for an ex-
emple , who failed o entirely to please his
better half in the matter of dross whllo In
Now York that she threw a ibottlo of Ink at
him and ruined a new * suit ho was wearing.
In a moment of remorse she gave him $100
to liuy onoro clothes , but her anger welled
up again and whllo they wore in the rail
road station waiting to take a train for this
city she cracked him over the head with
her umbrella. They 'were iboth arrested and
at the police station 'Mrs. Brown said her
husband was most exasperating and had. no
taste In dress at all. They wore released
and took a later train.
A first practical step In the attempt to
substitute tea for beer Is to bo taken next
week In the opening of a tea , bar In New
York by Colonel H. H. iHadley of the Church
Army. Ho says : "We propose to have a
place In Allen street where tea , hot or
cold , will be served at 1 cent a cup. There
will always be good music , also. Our mis
sionaries will visit the poor and persuade
them to abandon beer for tea. In the case
of a feiw ( honest persons our missionaries
will propose that the beneficiary pay us 8
cents a bucket for tea Instead of beer. At
the end ot the year , when It has been com
pletely shown that tea has been substituted
for 'beer ' , the beneficiary will receive back
$100 , the 8 cents a ibucket amounting in
nearly that sum , and. our friends will make
up the rest. "
John Grecnert , n prominent farmer of the
Tygart creek neighborhood , Kentucky ,
whoso veracity has never been doubted , tells
of a wonderful species of winged snake seen
byhlm _ and a farmhand on his place. He
describes the snake , which they first dis
covered lying on the ground , as about three
feet long and ton Inches in clrcumfcranco nt
the center. It had four pairs of legs , two
near the head and two Just back of the
wlngg , which grow Just forward of the mld-
dlo of the body. The wings consisted of a
membraneous substance which , when the
snake was In a dormant condition , remained
folded up under the body and were not
noticed by them until on their approach.
With a spring It raised from the ground
and sailed through the air at a terrific speed.
The snake Is ns black as charcoal and has
n very repulsive appearance , especially
when flying through the air.
An odd case of hysteria In reported from
Abilene , Kan. A lady of that town has been
entertaining her niece , a young woman from
another town , and ever since the arrival of
the girl the house has been made the target
of peepers and iburglars. In the evening
before the family had gene to bed there
would bo a crash of glass and then the
young woman would como flying in terror
to her aunt with the story that she had seen
the face of a man at the window and when
he found he was observed ho broke the
window and ran. After windows had been
broken all over the house ofllccrs wore set
to watch for several nights , At last ono
officer , brighter than the rest , discovered
that all the glass liroken from a window
fell outward , showing that it must have
been struck from the inside. A watch was
then placed over the girl and she was soon
caught In the act of breaking a window ,
after which she ran screaming to her aunt ,
with the same old story a'oout a man. Her
strange performance is accounted for on the
theory of a hysterical condition In which
she "feced things" and then does things un
consciously.

The most critical smokers in America nre smoking the CAPADURA
five-cent cigar. Many who have never before smoked a nickel cigar , and
many who have insisted that nothing but an imported cigar could suit their
fastidious tastes , agree that the CAPADURA is a perfect cigar in every
sense of the word.
It is I'erfecto shape. It is 4' inches long. If it were longer it would
have to be poorer.
Every CAPADURA pouch contains an inside wrapper of waxed
paper , which keeps the cigar always fresh.
Don't buy alleged CAPADURAS that arc not packed as shown in
the cut.

You will find them at all cigar dealers.
The CAPADURA cigar is made by Kerbs , Wcrthcim & SchifFcr ,
