"But we'll make a try for tbim, Jarge
'tis more an even chancL" And thin, as
he brought down bis band heavy, I told
thla votac'ua tale.
It was a year back whin Jarge and me
was apart. I was stumpln' the pave dis
consolate, with nawthln' but hands in me
pockets, and those blue ani cold.
A hearty old gent, with a long white
beard, stopped me, lifting me chin and
peerln' Into me face with his bright, blue
eyes. Thin he offered me good pay and
prog if I wud go to his house and act as a
ubjeck for a trlflin' scientific lnwestlgatun.
I wlnt to his roomy, ramblln' house, so
tired and weak from me bed and boord ct
stone thet hardly bad he told me to look
at a big, bllnkln' crystal and hardly bad
he made a pass and a stroke before I was
nlddle-noddlln' in the Land of Nod; talkln'
yls, in answer to his queatuna, but I don't
know sayin' wjiat, exclpt it was about
somethln' that was hid and must be found.
He kep' me there for free days in a
vereptable land of Canaan, served straight,
wldout milk and honey at the aide, t'ank
goodness, and when he dismissed me as
not proven, me pockets were warm enough
to keep me hands from glttun blue and
cold.
"This was Dr. Anglum T" ast Jarge, Im
pat'ently. "And you think he was
searchln' for the dl'monds?"
"Rlarht. bot' wave." I answered. "At
fuat I fought he was simply daffy, but
now I kin see he was daffy wit' a pup
pose, like every, odder man of gen'ua.
"And that ain't all, Jarge. He niced
me, he liked my glntle ways. Ills last
words wore an Ixpiiasun of confidence.
'It's In you, all right,' be said, with a
lgh, 'but I ain't got the power to revoke
It. Some'ares In the wurrold, young man,
Is you compllralnt, the strong will that Is
a key to your slnaltive soul, which kin un-
lock and unfold the mysteries of natur'.
Promise me, if the two hemispheres are
Iver screwed (ogedder by fortutus sue-
cumatances into a globe of pufflct knowl-
edge you and he will come to me as me
honored guests.' "
"I see your drift at laat," Interrupted
Jarge; "you want me to play the role of
anudder Cally Ostrum. But what do I
know about anny such rot?"
"That's half the battle." I cried, ex-
ultant. "Tour method Is sure to be an
advanced wan. Under your magical In-
flooance I'll lead you by gradooal and bar-
monua at. pa from clller to root, from cold
to warm, until be ha proclss of ellmlna-
tion we locate the dl'monds. Talk about
a needle In a haystack! I'll go t'roo that
fodder with a fine toot' comb."
JargM asalnted at lengf , but in a half
hearted way.
" 'Tls all very like with a dotty old man,"
he grumbled as we started on our qulst,
"but there's a girl what's her name An
nette?" "There Is a girl, very much of wan. too,"
I agreed with an Iplcurecn smack of the
Hps. "She was away whin I was there;
but I seen her plctur and It wud make a
did octoglneraln skip with J'y. I wisht
I cud put meself In your place, Jarge; I
wisht that unly for the onct I might pose
aa the masher unlvussal."
But It was no use. The etarnal spark
of Jarge' s vanity was blinked under a
bushel of doubts. His Arab steed was shed
with burlap and straw lnstid of Are,
"But thla sleen of yours. Bmlthers." he
fretted. "Was It genoolne, was It naterat?"
Whin I had assured htm of my ability to
sleep at will under anny and all condi
tions, but alius with wan eye open. I
began to see the drift" of his quama. The
fesr of the unknown was upon him- fear
that has rattled many a stouter nerve
than his.
Not that Jarge was a coward pride,
ambltun, eagerness, greed, united to give
him a sort of deaprlt courage. But there
was nawthln matter o' fak about It.
It was alius under excitement, tnsptratua;
with narves tightened up to the highest
pitch, and hysterics follerln' clus like a
shadder. No forlorn hope for Jarge, sech
aa propln froo a tunnell to locate a mine;
he wanted to see the wsy Ivery time; yU,
and to know It wore his.
Howlver, the perllmlnarles were so
famll'ar as to put him at ease. Dr. Anglum
recognised me at onct; be greeted me with
feverish glee.. The old man had failed In

"Pufflckly," aald tha good old doctor; and
I liked his nerve.
"The procisd Is simple, but tejus," Jarge
oontlnnered, "If as my syklck ainse warn
me that pusaon has already passed over
and beyond. In that case the strain of
wan may be reflected before the true wan
Is revealed."
"Papa, Is there anything I can do? ast
a sweet, tinder vlce. "Tou have been so
long; It Is time, you know, for you to
rest."
A beauryus young girl entered the room
and clung to the old man's arm; her white
complexun, her black hair and eyes, re
mlndun wan of the saft spllndor of some
misty night whin the meon Is asleep and
the stars seem sleepy. She caaht an anx'us
glanct at her father, a curus wan at me;
but whin Jsnre's deep gase met hers with
a challlnge she drooped her lids and you
cud fairly hear the buds a greetin" the
roseytt twilight.
"These gentlemen are to be our honored
guests, Annette," said the old doctor; "not
for so long as I would, but for so long as
they will. They are lllumlnatl " I fought
how ofting we had been all lit up "and
are going to help me in the matter clussest
to my heart."
Ha stud for a moment, leaning on his
cane, bis hand lxtended as If In blnedlctun.
Then he hobbled from the room.
Annette drew near, with streamln' eyes.
"Tou are gentlemen, I know ysu are,"
she perflated. "Tou cul not be so crule as
to wrong that feeble and confldun old man!
You can help him; you will help htm Is It
not so? To deceive him, to dlsapplnt him
where he feels his honor Is Involved, wud
be his deaf."
And Jarge, blndln' over her hand, vowed
by Its lilies to prove a wise adviser and
true frlnd.
Curus to relate, the trail was nlver cold.
On the contrary. It stldlly progressed from
warm to hot.
Our muddus ope randy was as follera:
With a few pusses Jarge put me in a hyp
noptlo sleep.- Thin, with his hand closed
over me throbbin' wrist, he follered
wherlver I all uncon'cus led.
The very fust day I dragged him at top
speed down the kltchlng stairs to the gas
meter box. And lo. from behind that ln
glne of dlapotlsm he drew fort' a manu
script pome which no doubt had been
preo'us In the sight of the late lamlnted
and deluded Pierre Anglum.
Again, the very next marn I roller rinked
htm t'roo the parlors to the top drawer on
tha lift of the butler's pantry. The on-
likeliest place, for the damusk and fine
lining with which It wore stored had not
been disturbed, for years, and ylt In the
right back earner was. a rubber ring
carved by Pierre whin a lad and carret
by him f roo his adolesclnce with an honest
pride in his precoc'us skill,
Wanat more whin lnspiratun slnt me up
the stairs, as It alius shud, I stopped plum
against a stater of Pomony on a nltch by
the landln'. Wud you b'lleve that in the
bottom of her bounf us pharmacopla, that
barn of pllnty, Jarge found a plctur of the
gone before but not forgot Mrs. Dr. Aug-
lum which long had stud on the driaser In
her son's room?
' How did I work such maglo? Why, as it
is glnerally worked by a slight Insight into
human ways.
A tall, slim, solemn, mlloncholy, In
dlvddle, like Pierre, who bad swallered a
ramrod and thin assimilated It, wasn't apt
to do afletlo stunts In bis sleep. Ho
might walk In It and stalk In it, but all
the powers of the air cudn't make him
climb in It or creep In It So I fancied
his ghostly flgger pokln' along with arm

made for it.

' What Use cud I do but obeyT I wasn't
looktn' for trouble with Jarge, therefore
I had to keep quiet about my treachery.
I reaplchted Annette for her new found
fumness, I was cur'us to see how far and
In what dlrectun It might lead her.
I was sorry, too, for the poor old doctor.
If the dlmands were not recovered he
was ruined, since he held hlsself In honor

they had been bequeathed. Why, thin,

It had alius been easy come and easy go

In the box and there wud be anudder day.
Besides, I tuk a pride In my unsusplcted
powers and was anx'us to see it they wild
not prove vlctor'us. The field of research
was narrowin'; we had klvered the fust two
atorles; there only remained the third,
bavin' a vacant attlo In front an' a large
work room in the rear, where the doctor
had pusued his lnvestlgatuns, and within
which bis apparatus was stored.
"Smlthers," said Jarge, with sparkling
eyes whin he was alone arter the last
aeaunts we was dlstlned all unknowing to
bold. "Smlthers, me b'y, we have copped
the game for fair. Did you notice any
thing peoul'ar about my actuns this

"I noticed you palmed somothln', Jarge."
- "It was a note; hear to It," he cried,
and thin be read as toilers:

dellr'us, "as sure as if they was already

night, whin old Orphuss is in asclndancy

their matrix, and thin, ho and away to
Tom Tiddler's ground !"
There was no holding of him, be was so
exalted, so excited, in such a state, do you
mind, as wud key him up to desprlt deeds
shud It unly last.
Sut It didn't laat. Either the old doctor
was persessed by the Imp of the perverse
or Use his daughter had been priming him;
I cudn't tell which.
At ail sweats, for the riat of the day and
until late at night he dealt out some blood
curdlers from the undeflled springs of hU
mln'ry and experience. I caught mesllf

me shoulder for more and wuss behind,
and as for Jarge, his courage waa visibly
ooslng from Ivery pour. He waa In a blue
funk, he was, whin at midnight's mystlo

"If it unly wasn't so dark," be mur

wud make a receivin' vault cosy In com

own Jaw; as for Jarge, you'd tlnk It was
playln' bones In some dlwle's orchlstry.
Howlver, we persisted, creepln' Into the
workroom and pausln' In the clnter until I
oud strike a match tor our bearln's. The
light flamed for a second and thin wlnt
out, but d'rectly In front of Jarge was the

I fought it waa the riasurectun. There

France's Religious Strife
(Continued from Page One.)
for two classes of ministers of religion
who prior to the passage of the law
bad been receiving salaries from the state.
One is for priests who are CO years old or
over and who have served thirty years.
To them is offered for life a pension equal
to three-quarters of their salaries.
Those priests who are over 43 and have
exercised their ecclesiastical functions
under salary from the government for
twenty years are entitled to a pension of
one-halt their salaries. In neither cose,
however, roust the pension exceed 1,600
francs a year.
All other ministers who draw salaries
from the government are allowed to re
ceive tor four years toliowing trie suppres
sion of the appropriation for pubilo worship
an allowance equui to the full sum of
their salary tor the first year, to two
thirds for the second, for one-half to the
third and to one-third for the fourth year.
In communes of leas than 1,000 ioiiaoitants,
and for ministers who shall continue to
exercise their functions, the duration of
the four periods indicated shall be doubled.
Applications tor pensions must be pre
sented wtihin a year,
Elaborate provisions are made tor the
transter of ail thu ' church property
throughout France to the new associations
that may be formed. Thus far not more
than eighty priests have made the declara
tion required under the law of ltoi, and
not more than 100 associations have been
formed.
When the enormous number of Catholic
churches in France ( is considered it will
be seen how the attitude of the Catholics
toward the law makes the tasa of enforc
ing it well nigh Impossible. Under tiie ad
vice of the pope they are offering a pas
sive resistance, which Is expected to be
much more eftectlve than violence or the
taking up of arms.
Little or no blood has been shed since
the government started to enforce th
law, but the Catholics simply refuse to
obey, its provlsloua None of the priests
who have been arrested for saying mass
In churches without giving notice to the
officials has paid his tine, and all are de

as a mark of their seal for the old order
of affairs.
The separation law decrees that meet
ings for public worship held in places be
longing to an association or put at its dis
posal are public. They are relieved from
the formalities of the law of lull, but re
main subject to the .supervision of the'
authorities In the Interest of publio order.
They may take place only after a decla
ration has been made Indicating the place
la which they are to be held. A single
declaration, however, suffices for all the
regular, stated or special meetings that
shall be held during the year.
It Is forbidden to hold political meet
ings In places regularly used for publio
worahlp, and ceremonies, processions and
other outdoor observances of religion shall
continue to be regulated by the municipal
law. The ringing of church bells shall be
regulated by municipal decree, and in case
of disagreement between the mayor and
the president of any association the matter

A light beer is just as essential as a moderate
luncheon for a level head during business hours.
Heavy, sticky, "bilious" beers are decidedly out

for you. The modern demand is for a light beer.
realty tax and the door and window tax,
but edifices serving as residences for min
isters of religion, seminarists and the fac
tions belonging to the state, the depart
ments or the communes and property
belonging to the associations and unions
are subject to the same imposts as those
of private individuals. The law then adds:
"The associations and unions are not In
any cane subject to the special corporation
tax nor to those imposed on clubs
nor to the Income tax of 4 per cent."
Religious teaching may be given to chil
dren between the ages of 6 and 13 years
registered In the public schools, but only
outside of school hours.
A fine of from 16 to 300 franos, or Im
prisonment for six days to two months,
is Imposed upon those who "by assaults,
violence or threats against an Individual,
either in causng him the fear of the loss of
his employment or of exposing himself to
Injury In his person, his family or his for
tune, shall have determined such person
to exercise or to abstain from exercising
rights of religious worahlp to Join or cease
to be a member of any association for re
ligious worship, to contribute or refrain
to contribute for the maintenance of a
religion." The same penalties are pro
vided for any one who delays or interrupts
religious worahlp by disorderly conduct.
A minister who defames or insults a
public official from the pulpit or by pla
cards hung on the walls of the church is
liable to a fine of from GOO to 1,000 francs
or to Imprisonment of from one month to ,
one year. The fact of the defamation, but
only when It relates to public functions,
may be established before the correctional
tribunal.
Article xxxv reads: "If a speech, dis
course or a writing posted up or distrib
uted publicly In places where religious
services are held shall contain a direct
provocation to resist the execution of the
laws or the lawful acts of public authority,
or if It shall tend to raiBe up or arm a
part of the people against the others, the
minister of religion who shall be found
guilty shall be punished by an Imprison
ment of from three months to two years,
without prejudice to the-penalties incurred
for complicity In case the provocation
shall have been followed by sedition, re
volt or civil war."
During the eight years beginning with
the promulgation of the law ministers of
religion are ineligible to membership in
the municipal council of the communes
where they exercise their religious func
tions. By the terms of the present, separation
law all enactments relative to the publio
organization of religions previously recog
nized by ths state, as well as enactments
contrary to the present law, are abrogated,
a notable Instance being the concordat
Itself. This is described as "The law of
the eighteenth germinal, year 10, provid
ing that the convention ratified the twenty
sixth meaaldor, year t, between the pope
and the French government, all the or
ganlo articles of the said convention and
of the Protestant denomination should be
executed as laws of the republic."
The French government is firm In Its
resolve to enforce the law and It haa the
warm support of the Chambers In Its de
termination. After the law was passed,
but before It went into operation, an elec
tion waa held and an Increased majority of
deputies returned who are In favor of the
act.
Unquestionably a majority of the voters
In France favor the separation act as the
only practical solution of the vexed ques
tions that have arisen between church and
state, but It Is not believed that the Catho

by which the Catholics could continue to

In his encyclical of last August the pope

James Bryess Claim en America.
iRJTINO of the new British am
w
bassador to the United State,
the Hon. James Bryoe, Mr.
Charlea Johnston makes the In
teresting observation in Harper's
Weekly that there Is not a section of the
American community on whose welcome
Mr. Bryce has not some special claim.
There Is the great bulk of the nation, to
which Mr. Bryce's great reputation recom
mends him. "To the Irish-American he
comes as a stanch home-ruler, who 'never
for a moment wavered in bis convictions.
To the German-American he may probably
boast that he Is an alumnus of Heidelberg,
that he Is a lifelong student of German
literature and history, that In bis first po

empire, and say that few historians have
done more ample Justice to the great re
viver of the Roman empire. The Italians
should welcome him as a great student of
Italy, from the days of Julius Caesar up to
the present day. He may fraternise with
the Swiss, if we have any among us, on

one of the most intrepid climbers of their

corners of their beautiful kingdom. The
Slavs know of him as a traveler In Poland.

envy, that he haa the honor of having
climbed Mount Ararat, alone and ungulded,
