"Thrd road cockeyed barn ron cow," and the confused jumble of drunken letters and fgures that Henry bad wrtten I could make nothng of these. "From B follow 1¼ m. Take thrd road 3 or 5" ths was at least half-ntellgble Then t came to me lke a blowwas th«the mysterous key" that the Unknown had demanded of me n her letter of ths mornng? I was roused from my revere of fears by confused shouts from down the hal, and sprang hastly to the door, wth the thought that the forces of the enemy were upon us. "Here he s! they've found hm,'' cred an excted voce. "Yes, ar! here he comes!" It was truly the stalwart guard; but two days had made a sad change n 'hm. Wth head bound n a bloody rag} and face of a waxy yellow hue, he staggered lmply out of one of the rear toons between Corson and Owens. Barkhouse was soon propped up en the lounge>ta the guardroom, and wu a few sp* of whsky and a fresh band age*began to look lke a more hopeful' case. "Now we must get ont of here," 1 sad. "Take turns by twos n helpng Barkhouse. We had better not rsk stayng here." "Rght," sad Corson; "and now we'h just take these throe beautes along to the staton." The men swore at ths, but as ther hands were bound behnd them, and Corjotu.walked wth hs clnh n one hand.ajs hte pstol la the other* they tod? tftfthl tnardh^at ctom-hand and Us rest of ut slowly followed. CHAPTER XXVIIl. The Chase, n.the»torm. When we reaebed the entrance Oj our quarters on Montgomery street [he j*aln^'hnd oueejupje begun tu fall, gentry j fowl - but thfcj gusts uf damp wnd Sktua 'the soutb promsed more and worse to follow. "A message for you, Ar Wltonfsad a voce suddenly from the recess uf the doorway. "(Jve t to me," 1 sad. A slp of,paper was thrust nto my. hand, and I passed up the stars. "I'll wat for you," sad the messenger, and at the frst gas jet that burned at the head ot the stars 1 stupped to read the address... It was n the hand of the Unknown, and my fatgue and ndfference were gone In a moment. 1 trembled ad tore open the envelope and read: "Follow the bearer or ths note at 12:30. Come alone and armed- It s mportant." There was no ( sgnature. If t meant anythng t meant that I w«&,to meet the l)afcn.ywa, and perhaps to search the heart of the mystery, I had been heavy wth fatgue and drowey wth want of sleep, but'at ths* thought tbe energes of lfe were once more fresh wthn me. The men bad wated a mnute for re as read the note. "Go to your room* and get some, rest, "I sad. "J am called away. Trent wll be n charge, and I wll send word to hm f I weed any of you." They looked at me n blank protest. "You're not gong alone, sr'.'" cred Owens n a tone of alarm. * "Oh, no. But I shall not need a guard.'* I hoped heartly that I dd not. \ The me shook ther heads doubtfully, and I contnued: "Corson wll be down from the Central staton n 15 or 20 mnutes..hst tell hm I've been sent for and to come to-morrow f he can make It n hs way." And bddng them good nght I ran hastly down the stars before any of the men could frame hs protest nto words. "Are you ready, sr?" asked the-meg' senger. "t s close on half-past twelve," I answered. "Where s she?" "It's not far away," sad my gude evasvely. ( understood the danger of speech and dd not press tor an answer. We plunge' down Montgomery street n the teeth of- the wnd' that dashed the spray In our faces at one moment, lulled an nstant the better to deceve'the unwary and then leaped at us from behnd corners wth the m : petuous rush of some great anmal that turned to vapor as t reached us. The street was dark except for the newspaper offces, whch glowed brght wth lghts on both sdes of the way, busy wth the only sgns of lfe hat the storm and the mdnght hour had left. Wth the lghted buldngs behnd us we turned down Calforna street. Half-way down (he block, n front of the Merchants' Exchange, stood a hack. At the sght my heart beat fast and my breath came quck. As we neared the hack my gude gave a short, suppressed whstle, and passng before me. flung open the door to the vehcle and motoned me to enter. I had gone too far to retreat and stepped nto the hack. Instead of followng, the gude closed the door gently; I heard hm mount the seat wth the drver, and n a moment we were n moton. Was I alone? I had expected to fnd the Unknown, but the dark Interor gave no sgn of a companon. A slght movement made me certan that some one sat n the father corner of the carrage. The stuaton became a lttle embarrassng. Was t my place to speak frst? I wondered. At last I could endure the slence no longer. "Qute an unpleagaat evenng," I remarked poltely. There was a rustle of movement, the sound of a short gasp, and a soft, mournful voce broke on my ear. "Mr. Dudley can you forgve me?' The astonshment f felt to hear my own name once more the name that seemed now to belong to a former state of exstence was swallowed np as the magnetc tones carred theft* revelaton to my mnd. I was strcken dumb for a moment at the dscovery they had bronffht. Then I gasped: "Mrs. Knapp!" "Yes. Mrs. Knapp," she sad wth a mournful laugh. '"Dd you never suspect?" I was lost n wonder and confuson, and even yet could not understand. "What brngs you, out In ths stonrt^* t asked, jcompletely myatfled. "I though! I was to meet another per* son *" ".ndeed?" sad Mrs. Knapp, wth a spark of anmaton. "Well, 1 am the other persotr." "Yon!" 1 exclamed af last.. "Af you the protector of the boy? The rmploypr " Then T stopped, the tangle n mnd begnnng to straghten out. "I am she," sad Mrs. Knapp gently. "Therf," I crfed, "who Is he* what s he" 1 what Is the whole dreadful affar about? and what ", < ftrs.. Knapp nterrupted me. "Fst tell me what bag Leooue of Henry WUtlnV" she sad wth sorrow n her voce. The dreadful scene n the alley flashed before tny mnd. "He s dead." "Dead! And how?' "Murdered." "1 feared so I was certan, or he would have let me know. You have much to tell me. But frst, dd he leave no papers u your hands?" 1 brought out the slp that bore the blnd dagram and the blnder descrpton that accompaned t. Nothng could be made of t n the darkness, so 1 descrbed t as well as I con Id. "We are on the rght: track." bald Mrs. Knapp. "Oh, why ddn't I have that yesterday? But here we are at the wharf." My gude was before us, and we followed hm down the per, strugglng aganst the.gusts. "Do we cross the bay?" 1 asked, as Mrs. Knapp clung to my arm. "It's not safe for yub n a small boat." "There's a. tug watng for us," Mrs. Knapp explaned. A moment later we saw ts lghts, and the fre of ts engne room shot a cheerful glow nto the storm. The MtHe vessel swung uneasly at ts berth as We made our way aboard, and wth shouts of men and clang of bells t was soon tossng on the dark Waters of the bay. The cabn of the tug was ftted wth a shelf-table, and over t swung a lamp of brass that gave a dm lght to the lttle room. Mrs. Knapp seated warn5ahf.\wlt>p.a->* r A':r.?.vtf^^.yur herself here, spread out the paper 1 had gven her and studed the dagram and the Jumble of letters wth anxous attenton. "It a the same," she sad at last; "n part, at least." "The same as what?" I asked. "As the one I got word of to-nght, you know," stare repled. "But," she contnued, ths gves a dfferent place. I was to go to the cross-road here" Indcatng the mark at the last branch. "I'm glad to hear that,"' sad I. takng out the dagram I had found n the ctadel of the enemy. "Ths seems to pont to a dfferent place, too, and I really hope that the gentleman who drew ths map s a good way off from the truth." "Where dd you get ths?" exclamed Mrs. Knapp. I descrbed the crcumstances n as few words as I could command. "They are ahead of us." she sad n alarm. "They have started frst. I suppose," was my suggeston. And they have the rght road." "Then our only hope s that they may not know the rght place." "God grant t," sad Mrs. Knapp. She was slent for a few mnutes, and I saw that her eyes were flled wth tears*. Then she sad. "Now tell me about Henry Wlton how he ded and when." I told the tale as t had happened. and as I told t I read n the face hefore me the varyng emotons of alarm, horror and gref ^hat were strred by Its ncdents... But one thng I could not tell her. The wolf-face I had seen n the lantern flash n the alley 1 could not name nor descrbe to the wfe of Doddrdge Knapp. Mrs. Knapp bowed her heart n deep, gloomy thought. "I feareft t, yet he would not lsten fro my Vaxnrags',** she murmured. 'He would work hs own way." Then she looked me stuenly straght n the face. "And why dd you take hs place, hs name? Why dd you try ro do hs work when you had seen the dreadful end to whch t had brought hm*" I confessed that t was half through the nsstence of Detectve Coognn that I was Henry Wlton, hmf through the course of events that seemed" to make t the easest roar! to reach the vengeance that I had vowed to brng the murderer of my frend. 'You are bent on avengng hm?" asked Mrs. Knapp thoughtfullv "1 have promsed t. ' "I have marveled at you," *ad Mrs. Krap after; a^ pause. "1 marvel at you y*t- Yptl have, carred off your part fetrjr.''' "5kPt. wel^. qaougb,, t s^em:*, to decglrve) you," sad, a lttle btterly., Y "eu should adt hate Expected to deceve ue* sad M"Hr/ Knapp. "But ym fan Imaffpne rhe shnrk I hud when I saw* that t was not Heury Wlton who had come umoug us that frst nght when 1 called you from Mr. Knapp's room.". "You certanly succeeded n concealng any surprse you rnay have felt," I sad. "You are a belter actor than I." Mrs. Kuapp smled. "It was more than surprse--it was consternaton," she sad. "1 had been anxous at recevng no word from Henry. I suppose you got my uotea. And when 1.saw you I was torn wth doubts, wonderng whether anythug had happened to Henry." "1 ddn't suppose r was qute so poor an luposter," I sad apologetcally, wth a qualm at the word. "Though J dd get some hnt of It," I added, wth a panful recollecton of the candd statement of opnon I had receved from the daughter of the bouse. "Oh, you dd very well," sad Mrs. Knapp kndty. "but no one could have been successful n that house. Luella was qute, outraged over It, but I managed to rp*h&t her." "I hop*» Mss Knepp has not retaned the unfavorable mpressons of er- L " I stammered n much confuson. Mrs. Knapp gave me a keen glance. "You kuow she has not," ahe sad. "Well," contnued Mrs. Knapp, "when saw you and guessed that j somethng had happened to Henry ' Wlton, and found that you knew lttle I of what wa.; gong on, I changed the plan of campagn. I dd uot know that you were one to 'be trusted, but, I saw that you. could he. used to keep the ; others ou a false scent, for you decelved everybody but us."' "1 would have* spoken when I found you for what you are," sad Mrs. Knalp. "but T thought untl the Lvermore trp that you could serve me best as you were dong." "It was blnd work."-1 sad. "It was blnd enough for you, not fqr me. I,v\as deceved n one thng, however; I thought that you had no papers nothng from Henry that could help or hurt. The frst nght you came to us I had Henry's room thoroughly searched." "Oh, I was ndebted to you for that Among the most receol fnds whch j have been made at Carthage by the Rev. P.

AN INSECT TRAGEDY. The Nest the Mother Butterfly Bulds For Her Young. There s somethng really pathetc n the way a mother butterfly bulds a nest for her chldren. In the frst place, the lttle home where the eggs are deposted represents a great deal of sacrfce, for t s lned wth several layers of down plucked from the moth r*8 own soft body. The eggs havng been lad carefully npon ths luxurous, pretty couch, are protected by an equally pretty coverlet made of the eane materal. These butterfly bedclothes are often arranged wth an Intrcacy that to qute curous and perplexng. Sometmes a bed 1B made so that each separate delcate har stands uprght, thus gvng the entre nest the appearance of a lt te brush of downy fur. Then ngan the eggs are lad sprally round a tny branch, and, us the coverng follows ther course, the effect resembles the bushy tal of a fox, only the nest s more beautful than the brush of the fnest fox thnt ever roamed over country. The buldng of ths downy nest la the latest earthly labor of the mother butterfly, for by the tme It Is completed her own delcate body Is denuded of Its natural coverng and there Is nothng laft for her to do but de, a sacrfce whch she promptly and herocally makes In the Interest of the comng butterfly generaton.

There s a growng feelng n the whole country th t the bench, wheth er federal, dstrct, state, crcut or probate, should be as far removed from poltcs and poltcal nfluence as possble and that the ncumbent jndges, f capable and worthy, should be retaned as heads of ther respectve courts so long as the conduct of ther ccurts measure up to the establshed standard. In the case of no other judgeshp s the dea so well adapted and so practcal as that n the probate court, as was so ably argued by the Lvngston Democrat four years ago. Dealng as ths court does, wth dependant wdows and orphans the judge of probate s n many cases looked to as a personal frend and famly advser, and wth over a hundred ot estates n course ot settlement, t s hghly advsable that the competant judge of probate, who has the detals of each estate n mnd should be retaned as the head of the probate court.

"We ddn't turn out of Burnet 1 kept lookng at the street names, and after we crossed Chestnut" That was the last word I got I called agan and agan wthout any reply, only the buzzng common n telephones. It occurred to me at once that a chld I couldn't tell from the voce whether t was a boy or grl had been kdnaped and had got hold of a telephone only to be stopped In tme to prevent my gettng defnte nformaton. I called up polce headquarters and told my story, and after a few mnutes' consultaton among them they requested me to go wth them for a search. A carrage contanng three men n plan clothes soon drove up to the house, and we started for Wash- j 1 lngton street, turnng thence Into Burnet and, crossng Chestnut, stopped to survey the localty. Meanwhle we had come to the concluson that the kdnapers must have taken the chld to a house of good class snce It contaned a telephone. The houses near where we stopped were fne resdences. It was the month of August, and, whle there were lghts In most of them, one had evdently been closed. A polceman walked around t and reported that a ray of lght came through a crack n an upper story. I was requested to rng the bell and ask If a doctor had been called for. I raug, but receved no reply. Agan and agan I pushed the button, and at last the door was j opened, and a woman stood In the openng. I asked her If a doctor had! been called for, and she sad no. The polceman n charge of the squad was wth me, carryng my bng of medcnes. He pushed nto the vestj bule. "Shall I strke a lght, doctor?' he asked. And wthout watng for a j reply he lt the hall gas jet. We saw that the woman was old and of forbddng appearance. "Say," sad the polceman, "we've been telephoned tjat there's a chld sck n ths house, and the doctor of the promses. We soon came upon a man In bed, who was routed out, and both he and the woman were taken along wth us. We went from garret to cellar wthout flndg anythng.

But later when.

But, although the pass was usually nterestng;, ts nhabtants were vastly more so. Between the southern gate- *9 r at pteel&oort and t* northertl outlet, near Leydenburg. a wonderfully VEt'JWrn* "no" of baboons has lved faj centures hgh up among the ^roncjsjd precpce*. In course of tme the whte hunter came along wth bs deadly rfle and occasonally pcked OHe^of them off the rocks, just for the (tn of the thng, and when the Kafrs took a noton to poson them for the «*ke of ther teeth, then the baboons k, Pettcoat pass, were drven to de^ fend themselves. In a word, they began to thfow stones. So long as the wagons and ther hofaarnert kept movng.all, was well, but when th^y lo t^ed o' stopped* the whrrng of pebbles* through the ar, a^d occa&onahy the^appearance of enormous bowlders cut loose from yjg crass above and shot down, through **lh> ar lke cannon bams', never faled to ^mnd the lotercafltot the^r were trespassers.

Then they went through the form of pretendng to wash ther faces wth the Vtult, after whch,they left the calabashea n the gardens and departed. Watchng ther opportunty, the baboons came down to nvestgate the busness and. beng unable to restran ther heredtary Impulse to mtate the proceedngs nf others, they forthwth washed ther faces n the poson and scampered away agan. la a short tme the venom began to work, the flesh fell from ther faces, and fnally a number of them ded In great agony. For many days afterwards 'travelers through tbd \Uoof reported a^n extraordnary state of affars. There waa much exctement and jabberng and much ptful cryng and callng to each other from clff to clff. But when the fcertod of mournng was over the baboons.aottted down to busness the busness of war. The preparatons they thade for hostltes wth the Kafrs were astonshng. Baboons were summoned from far and near, and the populaton n the kloof was soon doubled. They dvded themselves nto companes under leaders. They worked lke heavers, and before long huge carns of stones appeared at ntertal* along the route, and at places Where the crass rose almost, perpendcularly from the roadway Krcat bowlders were rolled to the edge la conducted a small store for the at commodaton of* travelers. On the day the baboons were posoned. Max was rdng hrough the kloof, and came arrows a lttle boy buboou, whose face was terrbly burned by* the acton of the acd. The lttle fellow was cryng pteously, and Max took hm up n hs arms and carred hm to the store, where Max'a mother, who had some knowledge of remedes, doctored hm so successfully that hs eyesght was saved. For several mouths her curous lttle patent was very shy and wld, but the good woman waa ndefatgable n her efforts to tame * hm. and fnally she waa rewarded wth astonshng succeaa. As the young baboon gxew up he became ver> much attached to hs benefactress, and there was no mstakng hs grattude. But one mornng, to the great surprse of Mother Pncua, a young lady baboon came down from the hlls and began to make love to Stoffel. Nearly a week passed before she Anally trumphed and led hm away. The followng mornng, however, he returned, and after watchng hm or a day or two, Mother Plncus concluded that consderable busness waa mxed up wth hs!ove affar. Indeed, the Boers, who relate almost ncredble Reportecr That War Ha^'toktn Out. stores about the ntellgence of these colored baboons, clam that the embassy of the maden waa merely a trck to seduce h4m from hs a! leglance to hfs.benefactress and that, on hts frst vat to the kloof, Stoffel was mmedately apponted to the leadershp of the baboon army on account of hs preemnent ntellgence and knowledge of the outsde world. One day a horseman galloped up to the store and reported that war had broken out between the Boers and the Macatees and that the baboons n the pass were evdently aware of the fact, for swarms of them were comng down from the heghts and w«te preparng for trouble. Ten days later the Boers were defeated wth consderable loss «t Johannes Kop and, encouraged by the tdngs, the Mapock Kafrs flew to arm8. and rushed uj> the valley.towards Steel poor t, burnng and stayng. At \ ther 'approach the women a*d chldren on the farms fled n terror, and just before nghtfall- nearly 100 of these panc-strcken refugees entered the pass, wth a large commando of Kafrs close at ther heels. The story of the encounter that, followed between, the baboons and the Kafrs n derved, partly from the account. of the Boer women; but prncpally from a survey of the battlefeld on the followng day. A" few of the hndmost of the refugees had already been capfured when, n passng through a narrow.djeflje,, the Kafrs of the precpces, and even ledges were assaled by a ferce ran of, stones from the surroundng clffs. Un wcr* t^dermned and made ready to- d8maved t.he Kafrr horde preaeed on, slde ojpwn and " overwhelm the n- vader/' From the day when these arrangements were completed the baboons pad no attenton whatever to whte men, and after two or three unfor tunat.e Kafrs had been stoned to death and torn to-peces the black race gave Pettcoat pass an extremely wde br»rth. Consequently, the spder-lke watchers up n ther fastnesses had a long tmr to wat, but the whrlgg of tme hrlnrs about ts opportuntes for revenue, even to baboons. Just outsde the. 9'eelpoort. end cf the pass Max Plncus, t German trader, but the roadway Deaeath them had been undermned, and when enormous bowlders, fallng" hundreds of feet through the ar, smashed through the thn crust, great pts were lad bare, j nto whch the Kafrs floundered, and j were then mercleaaly pelted wth! fusllades of sharp.ponted rocks Hut thn real fghtng occurred when the Kafrs, tlled wth dauay at the! carnage tha ensued n the pts, endeavored to retreat. On the followng mornng a very pathetc sequel to the battle occurred when Stoffel, grevously wounded; dragged hmself back to hs old home at the sore. It waa a panful and useless journey, for the buldngs had been burned to the ground and nothng remaned but the smoulderlug embers. Hut Stoffel had come home for a defnte purpose. He at once began to scrape and dg among the runa untl he succeeded n fndng a few rags asd a small bottle contanng sum* lquwl Tenderly he ataachod the flow of blood wth the rags and empted some of the flud nto the wound. Feeljng up bettter from the applcaton, he sought othar. rags and another bottle. Hs fath n the remedy was supceme. > la ths way hs eyes had been cured, and n many other cases he had vtnee*«d the aucceaeftr applcaton of rags and bottles. But, growng weaker and weaker, h* thoughts naturally turned to hs knd foster-mother. Desparngly. he glanced from sde to sde. Many a tme he had watched for her homecomug.

MORAN, Pnckney, Mch. flfr'c^^r^*' LUnder Suspcon. \ ICopyrBht by T. C. McCluns.] Colonel Juyue of Maaaachusetta had the honor on one ocean on of befrendng aud eulertalulug Colouel Swartz of the Royal German artllery. Tnla was h Loudon, where they w«re both strangers aud both happened to be toppng at the buuu hotel. Tbe Geruau colonel wua absuulted aud robbed on the street n the evenng, aud for u week, or untl he could send for money. Jle was the guest of the Amercan. There was somethng rather queer about the ncdent. The two gentlemen were "'sluumlug" when a publc carrage suddeuly bated besde them and two men sprang to the ground and attacked the German, whle u thrd ought to bold back the Amercan. Tbe attempt was made to force the German nto the carrage, and t mght have been that hs money was lost durng the struggle. The Amercan fought for bs companon, uud tbe fellows were fnally drven off. It looked more lke a ease of attempted abducton than of a holdup, but as the Germau argued the other way the Amercan had to be satsfed. Moved by Sller and supported by Kocbe that all blls presented to ths Councl shall be referred to the respectve commttee and certfed too be for hs government fore presented to the councl. Aye VenWnkle. Mowers, Sgler, Peters and Roche. Moved by Mowers and supported by Sgler that tbe resoluton passed May 17, 1907, be amended and to read that any person havng blls aganst tbe vllage shall present them wthn 60 days. It was fve years before the two met agan. Ths tme It was on tbe German fronter, and both were bound for St Petersburg. Colonel Jayue was travelng for pleasure; the other explaned that he was on a secret msson le made ths explanaton because he had shaved off hs luxurant whskers and was otherwse dsgused and recognton was accdental. Colonel Swartz was well acquanted n tbe captal cty, and t wn arranged that the two should stop \ the same hotel and take n the sght together. They dd take adjonln rooms on ther arrval, but the Germat sad that he would be busy for two or three days and left It to the other to fnd hs way about alone. Next mornng after arrval Colonel Jayne set out wth Yankee Impatence to see the sghts. Three tmes durng the forenoon strangers approached hm and muttered some words. They were Russans who evdently belonged to the mddle class, and n each case the colonel thought they were Inqurng ther way. He therefore shook hs head and passed on. Durng the afternoon he dscovered that hs footsteps were beng dogged, but he took ths rather as a joke than otherwse. He Ad not return to hs hotel untl Just at dnner tme and then found a couple of polce offcers watng to nr*est hm. They had already vsted hs rooms and overhauled hs baggage. Colonel BwartR was mssng and had been etnee noon. Hs baggage had also been overhauled, and the offcers seemed much chagrned at the man's escape. Colonel Jayne had known absolutely nothng of the German before meetng hm at the hotel n London. He had taken the man for what he clamed to be. He hnd no dea that he was an Impostor, so far as name and rank went, and that he was one of the most actve nhlsts n or out of Russa. The three men that had approached the Amercan on the streets probably belonged to that order as well. The German happened to be returnng to Russa at that tme, and accdent had dscovered the two men to each other. After beng under examnaton for half a day Colonel Jayne was sent to an offcal hgher up. Here he was met by the papers taken from hs baggage. He had made a month'sj^ftny n London before startng for Russa and had receved several letters from frends at home. One of them had Jocosely wrtten: "Don't forget that the frst thng to be done on your arrval In St. Petersburg s to call on the emperor and gve hm my love and tell hm to hang on to hs Job as long as the pay comes n every Saturday nght." "How can you, a person entrely unknown here, secure audence wth hs majesty?" was asked. "1 can't, of course," was the reply. "Then why should ths person have thus wrtten?" "He s what we call a joker." "Joker? Joker? Does he dare hold hte majesty up to rdcule* And you are to gve hs love to the czar of all Russa, just as one peasant woman ends her love to another! And how js ths about holdng hs Job? What does Job mean?" "Hs place, Rr." "But hs majesty's {dace s the hgheat n the land, and to speak of t as a 'job' s to speak wth dsrespect. And the pay every Saturday nght, as If the great czar was bnt a common loborerr "I shall take great pleasure n tellng tbe wrter of that letter what an am he Is the very frst thng when I get home," repled the colonel. "And here Is another letter n v»l»jch yoo are advsed not. to make any extorsfons to Sbera n the wnter «- BOO. People are sent to Sbera for SSrloas offenses aganst the law. Were yon contemplatng a crme that ths person should wrte you thus? It most be so." "I'll recommend hm to tbe nearest dot asylum," promtaed th» colonel. The examnaton lasted three day* I* all, durng whch tme the was a prsoner and lved Tarn Then, accompaned hy two gendarmes, he WUB eocorted to the German fronter aud warued never to»et foot In Russa agan. Colonel Bwarts got Into Germany ahead of hm, and they met ugalu, but when the German extended hs hand the other drew Unte! f up stldy and repled: "No. sr! No. sr! I don't know yoo,,r.-"' M.
