Aroxa Kdferir̂ Gx^eiY IDusireftiorvs & C. D l̂ hocles COPYRIGHT 1914- & DODD,7AEAD Of CO/ARAJN^/ SYNOP3I8- A curious crowd of neighbors invade the mysterious home of Judge Ostrander, county judge and eccentric recluse, fol­ lowing a veiled woman who proves to be tha widow of a man tried before the judge and electrocuted for murder yeak-s before. Her daughter is engaged to the judge's son, from whom he is estranged, but the murder is between the lovers. She plans to clear her husband's memory and ask-s the judge's aid. Deborah Scoville reads the newspaper clippings telling the story of the murder of Algernon Etheridge by John Scoville in Dark Hollow, twelve years before. The Judge and Mrs. Sco­ ville meet at Spencer's Folly and she vhown him ho^r, on the day of the mur­ der, she saw the shadow of a man, whit­ tling a stick and wearing a long peaked cap. The Judge engages her and her daughter Reuther to live with him in his mysterious home. Deborah and her law­ yer. Black, go to the police station and see the stick used to murder Etheridge. She discovers a broken knife-blade point embedded in It. Deborah and Reuther go to live with the judge. Deborah sees a portrait of Oliver, the judge's son, with a black band painted across the eyes. That night she finds, in Oliver's room, a cap with a peak like the shadowed one, and a knife with a broken blade-point. Anon­ ymous letters and a talk. with Miss weeks increase her suspicions and fears. She finds that Oliver was in the ravine on the murder night. Black warns her and shows her other anonymous letters hinting at Oliver's guilt. CHAPTER XI--Continued. "Madam, we have said our say on this subject. If you have come to see tbe matter as I see it, I can but con­ gratulate you upon your good sense, and express the hope that It will con­ tinue to prevail. Reuther is worthy of the best--" he stopped abruptly. | "Reuther Is a girl after my own heart," he gently supplemented, with a glance toward his papers lying in a bundle at hie elbow, "and she shall not suffer because of this disappointment to her girlish hopes. Tell her so with my love." It was a plain dismissal. Mrs. Sco­ ville took it as such, and quietly left the room. As she did so she was ap­ proached by Reuther, who handed her a letter which had just been delivered. It was from Mr. Black, and read thus: We have found the rogue and have-auc- eeeded in inducing him to le^ve town. He's a man in the bill-sticking business and he owns to a grievance against the person we know. Deborah's sleep that night was with­ out dreams. * • • * • • • About this time the restless pacing of the judge in his study at nights became more frequent and lasted longer. In vain Reuther played her most cheerful airs and sang her sweet­ est songs, the monotonous tramp kept up with a regularity nothing could break. "He's worried by the big case now being tried before him," Deborah would say, when Reuther's eyes grew wide and misty in her sympathetic trouble. And there was no improb­ ability in the plea, for it was a case of much moment, and of great local Interest. A man was on trial for bis life and the circumstances of the case were such that the feeling called forth- was unusually bitter; so much so, in­ deed, that every word uttered by the counsel and every decision made by the judge were discussed from one end of the county to th^^her, and in Shriby, if nowhere else? took prece­ dence of all other topics, though it was a presidential year and party sympathies ran high. The more thoughtful spirits were In­ clined to believe in the innocepce of the prisoner; but the lower elements of the town, moved by class prejudice, were bitterly antagonistic to hiB cause and loud for hie conviction. The time of Judge Ostrander's office was nearly up, and his future continu­ ance on the bench might very easily depend upon his attitude at the pres­ ent hearing. Yet he, without apparent recognition of this fact, showed with­ out any hesitancy or possibly without self-consciousness, the sympathy he felt for the man at the bar, and ruled accordingly almost without variation. A week passed, and the community was all agog, in anticipation of the Judge's charge in the case just men­ tioned. It was to be given at noon, and Mrs. Scoville. conscious that ,he had not slept an hour the night be­ fore (having crept down more than once to listen If his step had ceased), approached him as„ he prepared to leave for the courtroom and anxiously asked if he were quite well. "Oh, yes, I'm well." he responded sharply, looking about for Reuther. The yeung girl was standing a little behind him, with his gloves in her hand--a, custom she had fallen li^to In her desire to have his last look and fond good morning. "Come here, child," said he, in a way to make her heart beat; and, as he took the gloves from her hand, he stooped and kissed her on the fore­ head--something he had never done before. "Let me see you smile," said he. "It's a memory I like to take with me Into the courtroom." But when in her pure delight at his caress and the fatherly feeling which gave a tremor to his simple request, she lifted her face with that angelic look of hers which was far sweeter and far more moving than any smile, he turned away abruptly, as though he had been more "hurt than comfort* ed, and strode out of the house with­ out another word. Morning passed and the noon came, bringing Deborah an increased un­ easiness. When lunch was over and Reuther sat down to her piano, the feeling had grown into an obsession, which had soon resolved itself into a definite fear. She found herself so restless that she decided upon going out. Donning her quietest gown and veil, she slipped out of the front door, hardly knowing whither her feet would carry her. They did not carry her far--not at this moment, at least. On the walk outside she met Miss Weeks hurrying toward her from the corner, stumbling A" "Come Here, Child," Said He, in a Way to Make Her Heart Beat. in her excitement. At sight of Debo­ rah's figure she paused and threw up her hands. "Oh, Mrs. Scoville, such a dreadful thing!" she cried. "Look here!" And, opening one of her hands, she showed a few torn scraps of paper whose familiarity made Deborah's blood run cold. "On the bridge," gasped the little lady, leaning against the fence for support. "Pasted on the railing of the bridge. I should never have seen it, nor looked at it, if it hadn't been that I--" "Don't tell me here," urged Debo­ rah. "Let's go over to your house. See. there are people coming." Once in the house, Deborah allowed her full apprehension to show itself. "What were the words? What was on the paper? Anything about--" The little woman's look of horror stopped her. , "It's a lie, an awful, abominable lie. But think of such a lie being pasted up on that dreadful bridge for anyone to see. After twelve years, Mrs. Sco­ ville! After--" "Miss Weeks--•" Ah, the oil of that golden speech on troubled wa­ ters! What was its charm? "Let me see those lines or what there is left of them so that I may share your feelings. They must be dreadful--" "They are more than dreadful. They are for the kitchen fire. Wait a mo­ ment and then we will talk." But Deborah had no mind to let these pieces escape her eye. Nor did she fail. At the end of fifteen min­ utes she had the torn bits of paper arranged in their proper position and was reading these words: The scene of Olive "The beginning of Deborah's thought. der's crime. the end "If, after was Mr. Black's efforts, a charge like this is found posted up in the public ways, the ruin of the Ostranders to deter­ mined upon, and nothing we can do can stop it." In five minutes more she had said good-by to Miss Weeks and was on her way to the courthouse. Ae she approached it she was still further alarmed by finding this square full of people, standing in groups or walk­ ing impatiently up and down with their eyes fixed on the courthouse doors. Within, there was the uneasy hum, the anxious look, the subdued movement which marks an universal suspense. Announcement had been made that the jury had reached their verdict, and couneel were resuming their places and the judge his seat. Those who had eyes only for the latter--and these were many--noticed a change in him. He looked older by years than when he delivered his charge. Not the prisoner himself gave greater evidence of the effect which this hour of waiting had had upon a heart whose covered griefs were, consciously or unconsciously, re­ vealing themselves to the public eye. He did not wish this man sentenced. This was shown by his charge--the most one-sided one he had given in all his career. Silence, that awful precursor of doom, lay in all its weight upon every ear and heart, as the clerk, advancing with the cry, "Order in the court," put his momentous question: "Gentlemen of the Jury, are you ready with your verdict?" A hush!--then, the clear voice of the foreman: "We are." "How do you find? Guilty or not guilty?" Another hesitation. Did the fore­ man feel the threat lurking in the air about him? If so, be failed to show it in his tones as he uttered the words which released the prisoner: "Not guilty." A growl from the crowd, almost like that of a beast stirring in its lair, then a quick cessation of all hubbub as every one turned to the judge to whose one-sided charge they attrib­ uted this release. Deborah experienced In her quiet corner no alleviation of the fear which had brought her into this forbidding spot and held her breathless through these formalities. For the end was not yet. Through all the turmoil of noisy departure and the drifting out into the square of a vast, dissatisfied throng, she had caught the flash of a bit of paper (how introduced into this moving mas9 of people no one ever knew) passing from hand to hand, toward the soli­ tary figure of the judge, its delay as it reached the open space between the last row of seats and the judge's bench and its final delivery by some officious hand, who thrust it upon his notice just as he was rising to leave. Deborah saw his finger tear Its way through the envelope and his eyee fall frowningly on the paper he drew out. Then the people's counsel and the counsel for the defense and such clerks and hangers-on as still lingered in the upper room ^experienced a de­ cided sensation. The Judge, who a moment before had towered above them all in mel-, ancholy but impressive dignity, shrunk with one gasp into feebleness and sank back stricken, if not uncon­ scious, Into his chair. It happened suddenly and showed her the same figure she had seen once before^-a man with faculties sus­ pended, but not impaired, facing them all with open gaze but absolutely dead for the moment to his own condition and to the world about. But, horrible as this was, what she saw going on behind him was infinite­ ly worse. A man had caught up the bit of paper Judge Ostrander had let fall from his hand and was opening his lips to read It to the curious people surrounding him. She tried to stop him. She forced a cry to her lips which should have rung through the room, but which died away on the air unheard. The terror which had paralyzed her limbs had choked her voice. But her ears remained true. Low as he spoke, no trumpet-call could have made its meaning clearer to Deborah Scoville than did these words: We know why you favor criminals. Twelve >cars is a long time, but not long enough to make wise men forget. one which ball just released to free­ dom a man seemingly doomed. Few persons were now left in the great /oom, and Deborah, embarrassed to find that she was the only woman present, was on the point of escaping from her corner when she,perceived a movement take place In the rigid form from which she had not yet withdrawn her eyes, and, regarding Judge .Os­ trander more attentively, t>he caught the gleam of his suspicious /eyes as he glanced this way and that to see if his lapse of consciousness had been noticed by those about him. Wherever the judge looked he saw abstracted faces and busy hands, and, taking heart at not finding himself watched, he started to rise. Then memory came--blasting, overwhelm­ ing memory of the letter he had been readiDg; and, rousing with a start, he looked down at his hand, then at the floor before him, and, seeing the letter lying there, picked it up with a secret, sidelong glance to right and left, which sank deep into the heart of the still watchful Deborah. If those about him saw, t?v>y made no motion. Not an eye looM**" round and not a head turned as he <fraight- ened himself and proceeded to leave the room. Only Deborah noted tow his steps faltered and how little fee CHAPTER XII. "The Misfortunes of My House.M Schooled as most of them were to face with minds secure and tempers quite unruffled the countless surprises of a courtroom, the persons within hearing paled at the insinuation con­ veyed in these two sentences, and with scarcely the interchange of a glance or word, drew aside in a silence which no man seemed inclined to break. As for the people still huddled in the doorway, they rushed away helter-skel­ ter into the street, there to proclaim the judged condition and its probable cause--an event which to many quite eclipsed in interest the more ordinary He Assumed Some Show of His Commanding Presence. Old was to be trusted to find his wt(y un- guided to the door. It lay to the right and he was going left. Now he stum­ bles--isn't there any one to--yes, she is not the sole one on watch. The same man who had read aloud the note and then dropped it within reach, had stepped after him, and kindly, if artfully, turned . him towards the proper place of exit. As the two dis­ appear, Deborah wakes from hlfr trance, and, finding herself alone among the seats, hurries to quit her corner and leave the building. The glare--the noise of the square, 9s she dashes down into it seems for the moment unendurable. The push­ ing, panting mass of men and women of which she has now become a part, closes about her, and for the moment she can see nothing but faces--faces with working mouths and blazing eyes Thick as the crowd was in front, it was even thicker here, and far more tumultuous. Word had gone about that the father of Oliver Ostrander had been given bis lesson at last, and the curiosity of the populace had risen to fever-heat in their anxiety to see how the proud Ostrander would bear himself in his precipitate downfall. They had crowded there to see aod they would see. He was evidently not prepared to see his path quite so heavily marked out for him by the gaping throng; but after one look, he assumed some show of his old commanding presence and advanced bravely down the steps, aw­ ing some and silencing all, until be had reached his carriage step and the protection of the officers on guard. Then a hoot rose from some far-off quarter of the square, and he turned short about and the people saw his face. Despair had seized it, aivi if any one there desired vengeance, he tad it. The knell of active life had been rung for this man. He would never remount the courthouse steps, or face again a respectful jury (TO BE CONTINUED.)

A number of ancient Sumerian tab­ lets, recording the deeds of the Baby­ lonians thousands of years ago, have been decipered by George A. Barton at the University of Pennsylvania mu­ seum. One of these tablets, which tells how a farmer rid his field of lo­ custs and caterpillars, ip dated 4,000 B. C. and is the oldest piece of writ­ ing extant, according to an announce­ ment made by officials of the museum. The farmer, Doctor Barton's transla­ tion says, called in a necromancer, who "broke a Jar, cut open a sacrifice, a word of cursing he repeated, and the locusts and caterpillars fled." For this service he received a tall palm tree. That a canal waB constructed in Babylonia nearly 5,000 years ago is shown by another tablet dated "The year the Divine Naram-Sin opened the mouth of the canal Erin at Nippur." Naram-Sin was a king In Babylonia and is supposed to have financed the construction of the waterway which gave Nippur transportation facilities with the rest of the world. A third tablet, dated 3200 B. C., records the transfer of land and a quantity of grain for bronze money. Gold and sil­ ver were known at that time, but were not used as currency. What an Author Does. Margaret Turnuull, author of the re­ cently published novel, "Looking After Sandy," is a believer in the "back to the country" slogan--that is, tempo­ rarily. "1 run down to the country," she says, "whenever I want to write-- whether summer or winter--away from telephone and all other distrac­ tions of the town. I find that the only way to get a lot of work done. 1 like to walk, play tennis, row. dance--and cook. Otherwise I'm just like every­ body else" There is at least this to be said for the genius: He is a crank on only one subject. IN A SHADOW Tea Drinker Feared Paralysis. DOOM FOR DEER AND HARE Extermination • Planned to Great of Gam* Animals Avert the Annual Forest Fires. *• '•$. Extermination of deer and rabbit in New Jersey is planned by the state forestry commission as the only ef­ fective means of protecting the state woodlands against forest fires such as destroyed nearly $200,000 worth of property during the first two week* Of tbe*recent gunning season. The commission decided to seek the co-operation of the state fish and game commission in procuring legislation revoking the closed season for deer and rabbit In the discussion preced­ ing the adoption of this resolution it' was freely admitted that such a course would ultimately result In thb -extermination of deer and rabbits, which are now to be found in consid­ erable numbers in various parts of tbe state. That the action of the forestry com­ mission will stir up tbe opposition of most of the .70,000 hunters with which New Jersev is credited seems almost certain On the other 'tand, farmers who say their crops are destroyed by deer and rabbits may line up on the other side and make the light inter­ esting.

At a dinner the other evening, the talk topic turned to a bunch of things difficult to pronounce, whereat an ap­ propriate anecdote was exploded by Congressman Edwin Y. Webb of North Carolina. Down at the ctgar store some time ago, the congressman said, the regu lars were talking about the war and remarking how it gave one something worse than the faceacne to pronounce the Russian names. A man named Benners, who was sitting near, largely smiled. "Those Russian, names are noth­ ing," he remarked. "You Just ought to. hear what I stack up against in my own home every day of my life." "What's that?" demanded one of the regulars, with an amazed expression.
