that it is yet at liberiy. T will call my
wife."
She was summoned from behind the
counter, where she presided at the
money drawer, and presented to me as
Mnie, Jourdaln. I tilled a glass for
lier.
"Monsieur, here, is seeking a loilg

His wife pondered tho question a
tnoineut. looking at nie with sharp little
eyes.
"I do not kuow." she said at last.
"We shall have to ask M. Hethuae. I If
sal?l lie might again have need of it.
He has paid for it until the loth."
My heart leaped at the name. I saw
that 1 must take the hull h.v the horns ?
assume a hold front for if they waited
to consult my pursuer I should never
gain the information I was seeking.
"It was through M. Itethuri" that I
secured your address," I said holdiy.
"He was taken ill this morning. Ilis
heart, you know," and I tapped my
chest.
They nodded, looking at me. nevertheless,
with eyes narrow with sits
pieiott.
"Yes, monsieur, we k n?w," said
Jourdnin. "The authorities at th hospital
at once notified us."
"It is not the first attack." 1 assorted,
with a temerity horn of necessity,
"lie has had others, hut none so serious
as this."
They nodded sympathetically, l'lainfv
they had been considerably impressed
by their lodger.
"So." I continued brazenly, "he
knows at last that his condition i; very

hospital for some days until he lias

They exchanged a glance, and Mine. 0
.Totmlain arose.
"Very well, monsieur.' she saiil. !
"Will you have the kindness to eome
nnfl look at tire room?"
I followed her up the stair, giddy at
my good fortune. She opened a door
and lighted a gas jet against die wall. '
"I am sure you will like the apart 1
ment, inonsiuer," she said. "Von see, J
it is a very large one and most comfort
able."
It was indeed of good size and well
furnished. The bed was in a kind of
alcove, and beyond if was a bath un
looked for luxury! One thing, however,
struck mo as peculiar. The wiudows
wore closed by lieavy shutters, which
were barred upon the inside, and the
bars were secured in place by padlocks.
"I shall want to open the windows."
1 remarked. "Do yon always keep
them barred?"
She hesitated a moment. looking a
little embarrassed.
"Von see. monsieur, il is this way."
she explained at last. "M. Iteihune

"Ten dollars tbe week, monsieur,"
she answered, eying me narrowly.
I knew it was not worth so niuel
and. remembering my character, re
pressed my first inclination to close tin
bargain.
"That is a good deal," I said hc.siiat
Ingly. "Haven't you a cheaper room

"This is iho only oue we have nov

a little sigh.
"I fear 1 can't take it." I .said.
"Monsieur does not understand," sir
protested. "That price, of course, lu

"And dinner?"
She hesitated, eying me again.
'Tor $1 additional it shall iuclud

I nodded thoughtfully.
"When they tirst eauio, six week;

'lier mother eanie after her?" 1
asked.
"Oli, yes; ten days ago, and togetlici
they drove away. Ity this time the.i
are again in the good France."
I pretended to he inspecting a ward
robe, for I felt sure my face would betray
me. At a flash I saw tlie whole
story. There was nothing more Mine,
dourdain could tell mo.
"Yes." I repeated, steadying my
voice, "tlie good France."
"M. Belhime has himself been absent
for a week." she added, "on affairs of
business. He was not certain that he
would return, hut he paid us to (lie
loth."
I nodded. "Yes?tomorrow?I will
fake possession then."
"Very well, monsieur," she assented.
' i will have it in readiness."
For .'in instant I hesitated. Should I

not already know till that Mmo. .fourlain
could tell mo? I turned to the
tii ir.
"Tf.en I must ho going." I said.
"* ~ ilTl*n II I rn ill-range."
we went down together.
The place was tilling with a motley
rowd of diners, hut I paused only to
xehange a nod with M. .lonrdain and
hen hurried away. The fugitives had
akon tlte French line, of course, and I
lastened on to the foot of Morton
itreet, where the French line pier Is.
V slrip was being loaded for the voyige
out. and the pier was ^ill open. A
lerk directed me to the sailing ached
lie. and a glance at it continued my
:ue?s. At 10 o'clock on the morning of
Thursday. April I.a Savoio had sailMi
for Havre.
"May I see Lit Savoie's pssseuger
ist ?" 1 asked.
"Certainly. sir." and he produced it,
1 did not, of course, expect to find
Miss ftollnday entered upon it; yet I
felt thai a study of it might he repaid,
nnd 1 was not mistaken. A Mrs. (J. li.
l olsom and two daughters had occupied
the cahitte do luxe, kid. -US, MO.
On the company's list which had keen
given me I saw bracketed after tin1
name of tiie youngest daughter the sin
glo word "invalide."
"I.a Lorraine sails day after tomorrow,
I believe?" I asked.
"Yes. sir."
"Aml is she full?"
"No. sir; it is a little early In (lie seasun
yet." And lie g >t down the list of
staterooms, showing me which were
vacant. I selected an outside double
one and deposited half the fare in order
to reserve it.
There was nothing more to he done
that night, for a glance at my wateli
siiowon iih' ino lateness of 11 hour.
As I emerged from tlio pier I suddenly
found myself very wonry nml very
hungry, so I called :i cab and was driv1*11
direct to my rooms. A bath and dinner
sot mo uj? a pi in, and finally I settled
down with my pipe to arrange the
events of the day.
Certainly i had progressed. I had
undoubtedly got on the track of the
fugitives; I had found out till that I
could reasonably have hoped to lind
out. And yet my exultation was short
lived. Admitted that ! was on their
track, how much nearer success had 1
gotV I knew that they hail sailed for
Trance, but for what part of France?
They would disembark at Havre. How
was I, reaching Havre two weeks later,
to discover which direction they had
taken? Suppose they had gone to
Paris, as seemed most probable, bow
could I ever hope to llnd them there?
Even If I did llnd them, would I be
in time to checkmate Mnrtigny?
For a time I paused, appalled at the
magnitude of the task that lay before
me- in nil France to find three people!
But, after all, it might not be so great.
Most probably these women were from
one of the towns Holladny and Ids
wife hrnl visited during tlioir stay in
r ranee. "Which towns they wore I, of
course, had no moans of knowing, yet
I felt certain that some moans of discovering
them would present itself.
That must be my work for the morrow.
A half hour passed, and I sat lost in
speculatiou, watching the blue smoke
j curling upward, stilviug vainly to per
, etrato tlio mrsttry. Kor 1 was as fa
as over from a solution of It. Wh
were these people? What was thel

plot? What did he hope to gain? Wha

An ingenious instrument which demonstrates
the el >so connection thai exists
between dreams and brain calculation
is knoe-n as the "tilt board." A

, begins to dream, and then the tray con
tabling the sleeper's feet rcascends, the
I extent to which it moves varying ac- '
1 cording to the vividness of the dream.
The explanation is that the blood
leaves the brain of n sleeper directly
the mental activities cease, and, the
head as a result becoming lighter, that
end of the balance rises. When the
1 sleeper dreams small quantities of
* blood are recalled to the brain to supply
the dreams, and the balance Is
gradually changed. In this way

In tlie days when the Saxons dominated
England prior to the coming of
William ot' Normandy llio poop:;' wrro
fori mil into division* of hundreds.
Tills was done mainly for military purposes
and the convenience of assembly
upon the summons of the powerful
earls and barons to whom the people
owed allegiance. Those hundreds usually
consisted of ten families, eneh
family being eomputed at a Minimum
of leu persons. In time the families inereased
in niembership, but did not
lose their individual Identity or eliange
the designation of organization. In
the natural order of events these hundreds
expanded into communities and
ultimately Into geographical divisions
atul took on geographical designations.
Some of the American colonists
adopted this form of geographical
division, and tints we still have hundreds
in Delaware and Virginia, although
in the latter state that form of
designation is hut seldom used. Hut in
Delaware hundred is universally used
to describe the divisions of a county
and is equivalent to the township in
other states. ^

care for logic, yet lie learned it and

There is no reason to think he learned
anything else at Oxford save a strong
dislike of academic institutions and
methods. He turned from the otlicial
studies to amuse himself with geography
and voyages. As to mathematics,
there was no official recognition of
thciu at nil while Ilobhes was at the
university, so there Is nothing Improbable
