CHAPTER IX.
i ne group stood In a dead silence, I
broken only by the stifled sobs of j
Lucy nnd Carolyn, while the heavy i
tramp of General Blazes died away la
his slamming of the outer door.
Harry shook big head doubtfully,
as the Count continued to assure him
In dumb show that he could clear
things up for him.
"Cotne, daughter," Mr. Medders
aid, "thee must quiet thyself. Then
we will go home."
"Aren't you going to give me a
chance to explain?" Harry asked.
"Explain!" Carolyn blazed forth,
looking up at them with her eyes red
and her cheeks stained with tenrs.
"Explain! How can you explain? Oh.
dear! 1 never should have gone away
to school. 1 should have stayed at
home and done my duty by my brother."
"Nonsense, Carolyn." Harry reproved
uoi. iuu simpiy muse tilings 100K
worse for in? by such talk as that."
"How could they be any worse for
you!" Carolyn demanded. "Oh, men
are wretches! 1 suppose they ar?
all alike. I thought I could trust my i
own brother. I?I?even doubt?
Pigeon, now!"
Tho Count sm'led grimly at Harry
and shrugged his shoulders. Harry
looked ot htm In mute appeal, as
though asking him to come to the
front now with his plan of squaring
things. Rut the Count was a man of
experience. Kor all his flippancy and
gaiety, he was man of experience
enough to know that when you are
going to defend anything or any position
which la being attacked you are
better off If yon wait until the attacking
party has exhausted its ammunition
and arguments.
So he hided his time, while Carolyn
gradually relieved her mind by means
of tears and recriminations, and while
I-ucy, who was completely mystified,
but who felt that something was tremendously
wrong. Blowly arrived at a
state of calm on the haven of her father's
shoulder.
Mtirewd old Anion Madders. being
by birth nnd training a patient man,
aid nothing beyond a few soothing
words to Lucy. He had concluded to
end their visit and tuke her home,
yet he was a fair man and he would
give Harry a chance to come from
under the cloud. If he could.
"Well, Carolyn." Harry said at last,
"If you have finished all you have to
ay, we will get at the real truth of
the matter. Count von Fit*, 1 think,
can tell un something that will at
least Interest us."
The Count straightened his shoulders
aud took a deep breath. He
twisted his mustache thoughtfully,
and then flecked an Imaginary piece
of dust from his lapel.
"lfT you vlll all sit down," he observed.
"I can talk beddcr. Dare las
no occasion for weepings, nor for attacking
Mr. Swlfton. Iff nnybody shall
t>? attacked, it Is me. for vat has happened.
and vat may yet happen, las
my fault."
Carolyn resumed her scat. Lucy,
with a wondering expression, took a
chair, and Mr. Medders, nodding
gravely, also r.at down. Harry lounged
on a settee, and carelessly chewed an
unlit cigar.
"It Iss like diss," the Count said, rh
though addressing a Jury. "In lire
dare Isa many things vlch seem imbosslble
of explanation, hut vlch v?n
e know vat dey arc, do not mean
co much."
Mr. Meddora bowed assent and Harry
looked at the Count with considerable
admiration ft>r his self possesblon
and hi3 control of the situation.
"You haff aeon omdlns," the Count
continued, "vlch excites natural suspicion
und dlatruat. Ye hafT alt seen

dls. tJnd, as usual, ren suspicion Is 1
aroused. Id Iss like a swarm of bees? i
tt IJgbds varever Id pleases. Und also t
somebody geds stung." t
He chuckled to himself, but his j
chuckle did not raise sua echo. 1
"Id rould be easy for me," he said,
"to allow you to continue mlt der Im- (
bresslons you half recelfed. But 1 t
canno* allow It. Efen at der expense t
<Sf a wrong lmbression of myselluf, 1
must glff you my explanation?vlch j

Swifton some Chermac -*but I resign
now as his tutor."
"No. no! I won't bavo that!" Harry J
bluffed.
"Unless you accept my resignation, ^
I cannot say vat I vlsh to say," the
Count decided.
C
Accepting Harry's silence as a confirmation
of tho alleged resignation,
he went, checking off his points us he (
made them, upon his fingers.
"First, vat do wo haff? Ve haff
Cheneral ltlar.es coming here In a j
great rage, saying his wife Is here.
He l8s assured dot she lss not, und he
goes avay."
"Verily. I told him she had not '
been here. I saw not her nor any *
other woman?not even that one who
I.ucy's father patted her hand and (
ceased speaking. The Count bowed to
her and went on: e
"l^ater, Cheneral Itlazea returns. He o
lss cure hlBs vlfe lss here. Ho has a
heard from dcr milliner store dot , f
Bhe lss supposed to haff called up n
from here on iler teluraphones. Der , e

Ho demands his vlfe. He lss again e
convinced she Iks not here, und as he
starts oud, he hears a sneeze. Such *
a sneeze Is von dot lss echoed In hiss 11
heart. He beliefs It lss hlBB own vlfe s J
1/ci uuui ink Iipi-m-u, UUU instead
off hiss vlfe, oud comes der
milliner! Amazement!"
With a sense of the dramatic nultles.
the Count paused. The others c
nodded mutely In confirmation of his C
summing up of the evidence. t
"Veil, den," he resumed. "Vat las 1
der natural deductions you draw.
Darefore. und consequently, our first (
conclusion lss dot things look pluck j
for Mr. Swlfton. Iss It not so?" 1
They agreed, silently. . i
"But vy should It he so?" the Count i
asked, pleasantly, "lss Mr. Swlfton )

der only man In der vorld dot flirts? i
May 1 nsk vy I. a poor, unknown, un- i
noticed Cherman?though Id lss not
so in my own country. 1 assure you! |
?lss dare any reason vy 1 should be 1
neglected In your suspicions?" i
Lucy and Carolyn looked at each 1
other triumphantly. Here was a ray <
of hope for Harry, after all.
"But." the Count went on, "I must t
beg you not to suspect me as you do <
Mr. Swlfton. I know you vlll not. for 1

He Awaited the Verdict.
Peebles do not glff such violent bus- '
plclon to strancherH as dey do to their
own kind. 1 vlll tell you how dls voman

"You did!" Carolyn exclaimed.
"Why. I thought Harry?"
"Off course. Miss Swlfton." the
Count Interrupted her. "Ve vould always
glff der benefit off der doubt to ;
any von but our own folks. Is It not j
so? Now. vy did I sent her dare? ;

tell her to bide In dot room a moment.
Sho hides. But dare Is no chance Tor
her to get oud. Cnd at last, ven it
seems dot dure vlll be a chance, der
explosion comes?und you know der
rest."
The Count removed his eyeglass
and swung It nonchalantly by its cord,
lie awaited the verdict. He did not
look at Harry at all. Smilingly, he
studied the wall.
"Dost thee realize that thee has
endangered the name of this woman?"
Medders asked. In quiet tones.
"Not so," the Count defended him- I <
self. "1 vas protecting it. Dor Chen- j
eral. und all der rent off you, by mak- |

Ker." '
"Well," Harry enld, after seeming i
to think the matter over very scrl- i
oualy. "I confess that I am surprised t
by what you have told us. But I think i
we should make allowances for you. <
You r?re unfamiliar with our view of j <

not to hide her around here."
This concluding remark of his. accompanied
with a sunny smile, broke
he tension, but Carolyn almest
(polled everything by saying:
"It soundB reasonable enough, but
low does it happen that Harry was bo
letermlned no one should go into
hat room?"
"1 haff no answer." the Count rallied.
"I haff told as much as I should
ell."
"It looks to me its if lie knew what
-ou had done, and was trying to help
rou out," Carolyn declared.
"It ill beseems me to offer advice {
n the house where I am a guest." i
;ald Mr. Medders, "but I might sug- j
jest to thee that we ask Harry to tell '
is his side of this story later. It is
infortunate. truly, but I do not doubt [
hat he will explain all to us. Daugher,
we will remain here, as we |
lanned, and now let us try to forget ,
his unpleasantness, and make ourelves
welcome."
rnnnK you, Mr. Meddcrs," Harry
aid. "1 can see that you and Lucy
till have a faint suspicion of iue?but
can clear that up readily enough."
"I've got more than a faint one."
'arolyn told him.
"Oh, well. I don't have to explain
verythlng to you, sis." Harry said,
nslly. "But arguments are bad on
n empty stomach. I happen to know
hRt there's to be a pretty good din- |
er tonight, so we'll all get ready and
nt it "
"You vill excuse me," the Count
aid". "I must?"
"No, sir!" Harry said, heartily. "I
vant you to show the folks that you're
lot half as black as you have painted
ourself."
CHAPTER X.
It was a quiet dinner they ate thai
ivenlng. After much persuasion, the
^ount had remained. But even tils |
(tumbling attempts at witty sallies
jrought few smiles.
Harry had succeeded in quieting
'arolyn's alarms, and she in turn had
5lveu her own version of matters to
Lucy. And a long talk Harry had j
*lth Mr. Medders had helped. Harry
ivould not tell Medders the inside !
"acts, hut he told him that later he
ivould make everything plain. At this
lime, he said, to disclose everything
*ould he to tarnish a woman's name
?and Medders partly understood. The !
tood old man was fond of Harry. And i
le had lived long enough to know that
ippearances were often deceitful. He
was willing to give Harry tho beneht
jf the doubt.
But It was a quiet dinner. After
hey had loft the table Hurry succeed i
id in getting Lucy to come and talk
with him in the reception room, and
here he begged her to be patient un- i
til he lelt that the time had arrived
for him to make a clean breast of
sverything to her. At last he coaxed
Back the smiles to her face, but only
ifter giving his word of honor that so
ar as he was concerned, (he presence
jf Daphne in his house was not a reflection
upon him.
Meanwhile (he Count, endeavoring
.0 keep his promise to get Harry out
jf the scrape, slipped out into (be
awn. and by throwing pebbles against
(he window of the room where Mrs.
Biu7.es was attracted licr attention.
She opened the windows, and in an
ilmost hysterical voice, begged him to
get her out.
"I vlll. Iff you only be quiet," the
Count said. "Your husband chus*
irent In. I saw him ven I come out."
"But what c.*m 1 do?" she asked.
"Trust me!"
"I did." she sighed, "and lost my
lat."
"Yess. und I let you haff my ring,
oo,"
"Bother your old ring!" she an* I
twered "I'll give it back to you. 1
late the sight of it!"
"UifT it to me, den," the Count whiskered,
eagerly.
"I will," she hesitated, "when I get
>ut of here."
The Count swiftly disappeared from
plow as the front door opened and
Harry and the General came down the
itcps. The General's arm was across j
Harry's shoulders.

books be had at the Intruder, to the
istonlsbment of the congregation, who ,

Fined 50 Pounds for Insult.
I -
R
Ixmdon.?There are several towns
In the united kingdom which boaBt
an annual show day. London's lord
mayor's show, bo far as the procession
is concerned, has no rival; but, q
nevertheless, the election of mayors jj
of provincial towns is attended with
functions both interesting and curi- j p
ous- i t,
For instance, the aunual election of | t
the mayor of High Wycombe Is not B
considered complete unlesB his wor- R
ship is "weighed in." The mayor, as (,
well as each member of tho corpora- j
tion, takes a seat on a pair of gigantic
scales, and the result is entered in a q
big book kept at the town hall for t!
the pu-pose. It is declared that the c
custom dates back to the reign of c
Edward I. t
When a man reaches the mayorship v
of Plymouth he is supposed, accord- p
ing to an ancient custom, to pay at n
least one visit during his reign of ! p
office to the I^ake of Rurrator. When
this function takes place the whole p
corporation turns out in all Its finery,
nnd, led by the mayor, journeys to the ' b
lake. Ii
Arriving there, two lines are formed. u
and a couple of ancient golden gob- ; h
lets, filled with water taken from the )t
lake, are passed round from mouth r
to mouth. The mayor and corporation
drink to the memory of Sir
Francis Drake, who, when mayor of
Plymouth, brought water to the town jj
by means of a canal more than twenty r
miles in length. When the water w
placed In the goblets is consumed the w
vessels are filled with wine, and the l(
mayor, holding one at arm'B length, a
exclaims: "May the descendants of him j 0
who gave us water never want wine!" j p
The visit to Hurrator lake concludes 1 j]
with a feast, tho first dish served be- v
ing a sucking pig.
The mayor of Peterborough's show
Is held every October, and his worship
and the members of the corporation
make their way to Jtridge Fair, and declare
it open from the bridge spanning q
the river. The bridge unites two counties?Northamptonshire
and Huntingdonshire?and
the mayor, after adjuring
all visitors to the fair to conduct
themselves soberly and civilly, goes
on to declare that "the fair may be a
held as well in Northamptonshire as {
in Huntingdonshire today, tomorrow "
and the day afterward." *
A very ancient custom is the presenting
to Ixmdon's mayor and may- ^
oress every year a selection of pears, ^
apples and grapes by the master of ?
the Fruiterers' company and the gen- x
erai purposes committee of the city 1
of Ixrndon. 1
It is interesting to know that In
earlier times the lord mayor of Ixm- c
don was entitled to a proportion of r
every consignment of fruit arriving {
in the metropolis by ship. The ax- I
action of this due cuused a good deal I
of disagreement in days gone by, nnd 1
it was itnully arranged that a yearly *
presentation of fruit should be ac- t
cepted in its place.
Ever since the days of William the t
Conqueror, the chief magistrate of the t
cit." haa received four bucks from the 1
Royal forests, while each sheriff has i
received three bucks, and the recorder,
the common sergeant, the chamber- 1
lain and other city officials one each, f
Since the title of lord mayor was t
bestowed on Sir Thomas I.egge by <
Edward III., in 1354, the high office <
has carried with it all manner of titles
and dignities In early days he some- i
times used his power to the disad\?n- f
tnge of those In office under him. For <
instance. Harrison, referring to the 1
lord mayor for the year 1479, says: <

Camden. N. J.?In an address at the ,
'amden high school. F. llopkinson (
Smith, writer and artist, said that t
Uncle Tom's Cabin" had dohe more
arm than any other book ever writ- j
en. He added that the general condi- j
Ion of the negro had not improved j
ince the Civil war, and that the neroes
of the south were happier, betpr
cared for and more content in the
ays of slavery than they were now.
Mr. Smith's criticism of Uncle Tom's
'abin" was based on his belief that
he book pave the world an erroneous
onception of the negroes' life and
ondition before the war. Ho said
he chief Incidents in Mrs. Stowe's
rork were such ns never could have
appened in the south, lie attributed 1
luch of the bi?'erness that prevailed
n the south years before the war to

Mrs. Stowe, he said was to be
lamed only for making such use of
acidents that came to her knowledge
t second hand. "Uncle Tom's Cabr,"

ighly colored caricature that did not

family in bugdom, whose members
retail at as much as $25 apiece,
irovided they are delivered with limbs
ind feelers intact.
A former student of the University
jf Chicago, who is now on the entomological
staff of the department
sf agriculture at Washington, a few
lays ago described his expedition into
the native haunts of the amblychila,
which he explored long enough to
gather in considerable pin money by
the sale of whole families. i
"When I learned the baronl had
been seen in an obscure part of Arizona
only about half a dozen bugs
were known to entomologists," said
Lhe investigator. "One of these was
In the Leconte and Horn collection in
1'hiladelphia. Most of the othex-s were
in the River collection in San Fran
;isco. I
"The first had been caught near (
tllobe, Ariz. A naturalist named
Schaeffer also located a few souther st
ji itugaies, Ariz. I was tammar wun .
the characteristic of the creatures
through my studies under Curator
3uow of the University of Kansas,
low deceased, and when he invited
tne to join a party into the moun- I
ains of Arizona to hunt the amblychila
I was glad to go as if there had
aeen buried treasure at the end of
he journey.
"Wo found conditions favorable at
Peach Springs, near Ashford, Ariz.
Proin there we went into the moun- j
ains. There were no arablychila to
je seen, but we acted on the general
supposition that they were in this
teighborhood. We spent several dnys
noving about in tho mountains and
Inally selected a favorable spot for
he bug to appear.
"Now, the arablychila baront family j
s most exclusive and has never been
mown to come forth in broad dayigliL

vhen they appear. We tried several
wilights and several dawns without
esult. One night a light rain fell
ind we agreed that the dampness
night Invite the bugs out. although
t made it decidedly uncomfortable
or us.
"That night we scattered over the
tills and kept watch near crevices in
he rocks. I lay with my head resting
in ray elbow watching innumerable
nsects and bugs crawl by in the
ihady light. Finally I saw the long,
ilack feelers of what might be one of
he amblychila appear, and then auither.
I waited until they got well
iut of the crevice, for they are decidedly
cautious creatures. then
icooped tho two up in my hand. By
heir struggles I knew that I had the
Ight Bpecies. No bug struggles as
lard as the baronl. Then I stuck
hem into a small par of cyandie of
lotanslum which 1 carried. The fumes
lilled them quickly.
"I sold a number of my amblychila
laroni for $25 r.nd some for $15 and
HO. Our expedition multiplied the
lumber of know specimens consideribly
and the price went down a little.
I don't know how many specimens our
entire party captured, but altogther
he expedition was n success fmm a
monetary as well as an tentomological
standpoint."
