Nora was heartless enough to laugh. "He hasn't talked like that to me in years!" Mrs. Harrigan did not know what to do?follow him or weep. She ; took the middle course, and went to bed. Nora turned out the lights and sat ' out on the little balcony. The moon- 1 shine was glorious. So dense was the | earth blackness that the few lights i twinkling here and there were more like fallen stars. Presently she heard a sound. It was her father, returning j as silently as ne couia. one nemu mm fumble among the knickknacks on the , mantel, and then go away again. Ry ; and by she saw a spot of white light ! move hither and thither among the grape arbors. For flvo or six minutes ! she watched it dance* Suddenly all , became dark again. She laid her head , upon the railing and conned over the , day's events. These were not at all satisfactory to her. Then her thoughts traveled many miles away. Six months ; of happiness, of romance, of play, and then misery and blackness. , "Nora, are you there?'' ( "Yes. Over here on the balcony. ! What were you doing down there?" ( "Oh. Nora.

Mr. Rich intended catching the afternoon train at Quitman from Valdosta, where he has his residence and is pastor of (Irace church.

His or eratives were guests incognito at tin old Clifton house in the Canadian re sort and kept a vigilant watch on th< goings, comings and conversations o the Confederate spies. Mr. Plnkertoi was a boy during the era of civi strife, but thrilling stories of the gov ernment secret service under his fa titer's direction are clear ha his mem ory. It is said that Niagara Falls is ful nf secret service men representinj the interests of many countries o the world. They will remain durinf [he mediat'ou conference betweei emissaries of the United States, Mexl eo, Argentina, Brazil and Chile. I will be the second time In the town') history that It has been the stamping ground of national sleuths and per haps international Intrigues. "A new hotel of the same name hat been erected on the site of the ol< Clifton house,'* said Mr. Plnkerton 'That structure was a snug haven fo: Confederate spies, plotters and politi cal refugees during the Civil war, at well as presenting a constant menac< to the tfeirare or tne normern cause These enemies of the republic were 01 Hritish territory, although Just ovei the border from the United States. 'They considered themselves safe ind they were, as far as physical se :urlty went. But they were watchet is relentlessly as if they had beer operating in the nation'B capital by i force of secret agents under the gen ?ral direction of my father. "Hundreds . of hair-raising ploti ignjust?the United S*atee?xaa latched there, but practically all th< feasible ones were nipped by the ee ;ret service men, who got into tlx ;onfidence of these fellows. "Plots of assassination were out lined, also plans to dynamite publh buildings in northern cities, to wrecl railroads and to lay waste the enemy'i land without the aid of an tnvadini army. Several times plans for th< delivery of all the Confederate prison ers in Camp Douglas, Chicago, wen rompleted at the CHfton house or ii the vicinity. But all attempts to fret the prisoners at Camp Douglas wen for naught, largely because the secre service men were on the ground an< dispatched the details of the plans t< nrmy authorities before the plotter had a chance to communicate wltl their coadjutors in prison. "Agents in Niagara Falls sometime dared to venture over to the America) side. When they reached Union soil more often than not, they wer promptly arrested. I would hate t< insinuate that the American secre agents had anything to do with lui ing them over, on the pretext of eon forring with a Confederate junta, sa> in Buffalo. It often happened, how ever, that a bold aid of the Confer! eracy found himself bound in hand cuffs after he had taken a dozen step beyond British territory. "The 'underground railway' of slav ery days, when negroes were seeretl; rushed into Canada, was supersede! by a Confederate 'underground' dui ing the war. the route leading ?fron the United States to Niagara Fall and the Canadian village St. Cafhai irws. An active group of sou then sympathizers operated it in the latte place, and were also under the thum of the United States secret service. "An odd feature of the work of th secret agents in Canada was that fei knew each other or were aware o each other's government ewinectior It was found in the early days of th war that it was dangerous to put st cret agents on the ground who wer acquaintances?that one would b sure to implicate the other bv arous ing suspicion. This lesson wa learned after one government agen had been banged and two imprisonei in Richmond. Va." In placing :: ban on liquor the gen ml assembly of the Uni'ed Freshv erian chureh in Newcastle.

[ To have a mayor resolved that th 1 | i laws shall he enforced is most ex cellent for the city, but it is far mor - neccessarv and desirable that ther shall he an aggressive and energeti ( public sentiment in favor of law en forcetnent behind the major.
