Unfortunately durlitg the prog ress of the meal site bail, arched her Instep in such a way as to lose her dainty little slipper. She tried In Tain ', man w"0 hud fidgeted and appeared in- tensely preoccupied, It was several months later when they met as members of a ' yachting party to the Bermudas that they came together again. And now a Mr. Arthur Stephenson was Lucia's Inseparable gallant . At last Laurence understood why Lucia was admired. ' He could not he on board ship many days without see ing that she was not only beautiful, but very charmthg and interesting as well. The only thing that puzzled him was her lack of wit and sparkle th night he first met her. She was so very ordinary then, except for her beauty, of course! Now it was all so different, and he--would give a good deal to feel sure of her favor and friendship, but she seem ed to repel all advances. She was the life of the party. She played the guitar and sang Spanish love song3 011 deck moonlight nights. Sho arranged impromptu dramatics in the saloon wheu the weather was not suitable for sitting upstairs. She knew all sorts of games, was the most grace ful partner in dancing and the best sailor he ever knew, and she. grew more beautiful each day. . The mutinous feeling against Arthur Stephenson grew. They were only three days out from Bermuda, and they decided to salt for Nassau. Hap py opportunity! Now lie would suc ceed! But she was always surrounded. One uight the skipper came up and said a few hurried words to Mr. Jack son, the owner. No one noticed it until the yacht seemed to go slower and slower. TLea a shock came, and it was known that she had struck a bar. Fortunately Cape Fear had been passed. Thcu something went wrong with the engines, and the skipper had steered for some near port, but had gouo aground. There was nothing to fear. The sea was calm, and plenty of ships passed near every day. But two days had gone by, and they bad seen no vessel. The clouds were growing black. A storm was near, .'it broke lu fury at midnight, and those on board the yacht could only watch and wait and hope. The waves dashed over the deck and beat heavily against the sides. Then some wny they saw the yacht had been driven off the bar, and they were drift ing helplessly out to sea. It wus a fearful night, and it seem ed as if morning would never come that every moment the yacht would be wrecked when a shock came, and they know they were either driven upon some reef or bad collided with an ocean ship. . 7 . - Mr. Laurence went swiftly to Lucia ; and took her by the arm, saying: Come with me. The boat is filling ; with water." - . : : , . , '. , i Tbe confusion was horrible. The sailors were shouting, running 'to and I fro.- The women wore pale and weep- Ing. ' Lucia alone was calm. - ' Mr. Laurence half carried her to tbe - deck, and in tfie darkness they saw a great ship, the one that had run them down. But, oh, Joy, it had stopped and even in the fury of the storm was ' sending boats to rescue those on board , Lthe yacht! It was none too soon, and it wis a perilous Journey in the lifeboats, butln.S spite of wind and wave all were saved. and taken on board tbo ship, which 1 proved to be n steamer from Jackson- ville to New York. , ,i , The rest of the Journey It was not longer Mr. Stephenson wh was al- ways nt Lucia's side, but Mr." Lau-t rence. ,s ',--, .-'"v y:; , The last - night before home ' was-' reached Lucia was standing by tbe ' tide of the vessel when' Mr. Laurence came toward her '-; : , ' Her color rose, and she only asked: v "Arq you sorry tbe Journey 1s overt"' He wns struck by her now expres- sion.

'ID CU THE WATEtt BINDERS HOW THE-DlVINlNa ROD RESPONDS TO THEIR PECULIAR POWER. Myatorlaaa Art sf lite "Doiritr" r.i Iraett4 by Oeavtlefulk wad Otiaera ' Ia Bacland Roaamrkablo Porter of Oao Fatatoaa Rod Handler. Those who regard water finding by means of the divining rod as the prac tice of a foolish superstition will be shocked to hear that in recent times it has been employed by cabinet ministers such as tbe Marquis of Londonderry, by belted earls like Lord Strathmore, by grave Judges and sheriffs, by rail way companies such as the Midland, by urban district councils and by land owners without number, writes Fitz gerald Molloy in T. P.'s London Week ly. ' '., V The art of finding water, minerals and even criminals by means of the divining rod has been known and prac ticed for centuries in every country In Europe. Tbe rod itself, a symbol of magical power, is mentioned in tho an cient mythologies, in the Chrlstiau Scriptures as the means by which Moses obtained water and is used la all ceremonial magic. . . The water finder's rod is merely a lorked twig, usually cut from a hazel, a whiteborn or an apple tree below the bifurcation, and is generally a foot long and about tbe thickness of a pencil. Its twigs are held at the ex treme ends, between the fingers and thumb ot each hand by the water find er, or dowser, as he is commonly called, who slowly walks over the land where It is desired t find a spring, until, ou coming to the) spot where water Is, the twigs begins to move and its fork to bend downward. It frequently happens that on reach ing this site tbe rod, which has pre viously remained passive in the dow ser's bands, twists itself round with such violence as to break. - The state ment that water will be found beneath (the depth la occasionally specified) has seldom been falsified. The experi ment has been tried of blindfolding tbe II water finder and leading him by a dlf- t ferent route to the spot be has already Indicated, only to show that the rod I repeated its movements on bis regain- lne it A second dowseft kept in lgno- B ranco of tbe spot or of the land over B which his predecessor has gone, will ftialmost invariably name the same site ;as a place where water will be found, Water Undine is a special gift, re- 8 .quiring special physical and psychical Qualifications, but Is not limited to any 1 .class of society, to the educated or the : Ignorant to age or youth, to men or women. Mr. J. D. Enys, b ij. s., be came an excellent dowser, while a wo man of title in the midlands also bc- came expert at finding water by this : means. But, though a special gift, experience Ihas shown that it can be trnnsmltted- rthat Is, when the rod is held by a per- ison who has not this power, but whose wrists are grasped by a dowser, it will 1 point to a spot where water may be : found. No matter how diverse in rank or Intellect or constitution water find ers may be they all to a greater or less degree betray the same symptoms in exercising tbe gift an electric shock seems communicated to tbem; tbey turn pale, tremble or have convulsive move ; meats Similar to those that disturb the nervous system of a medium who ob- , "tains psychic manifestations. Kir Lauder Brunton in writing on "Wraths and Delusions" in the Univer sal Review says: "When we hear that : man Is able to discover water at a (OtnYsklerable distance below tbe ground on -which he stands we are at first apt tc-SKouf: the idea as ridiculous, while if iw were told that a caravan was cross- Jog the desert and that all at once the thbxty camels started off quickly and art;, distance of a mile or more water wras t ennd we wwuld look upon the oc currenoe as natnrnl." .Regarding the divining rod as a suh Ject f or ta veaHgatlou, the council of the Society JECor psychical Research ear neatly requested Mr. W. F. Barrett, professor f experimental physics in the Royal -College of Science For Ire land, to inqtflre into it With "great reluctance and even repugnance," as he stated, he yielded to their wishes and began his examination, "hoping, however, in my Ignorance that a few weeks' work would enable me to rele gate it 'into the Umo large and broad, since called fie paradise of fools.' " report of his lone and patient re search concerning the divining rod was contributed by Professor Barrett in paper callod "Tbe So Galled Divining Rod, or Virgula Drv-na. The outcome ef his personal investigations, of rcllor lble evidence and scientlfia knowledge, imay be summed up in his awn words "The movement of the rod Is not duo Ito .trickery nor any ooneciou raluntary effort, but is a more or less violent au tomatic action that occurs under cer tain conditions in eertaln indlvidnaJs."

It Is interesting, but not surprising, to leans that tbe exercise of tbe dow ser's gift, which has been of immense err ice aud which has been employed lay those who frame and administer oar laws, Is Illegal and therefore that those "Who scceive money tat its exercise ore vrearrmaWy as liable to fine rvnd pun-' iaument as any gypsy fortune teller.

The ivattf." tinder einplqryed was Leices ter Gatakir, one of tup most famous dowsers iu England, whose powers have been made use ot by marry public men, . by factory owners and. parish councils. He is remarkable fur being able at times to dispense with tbe rod, instead of which he uses his outstretch ed hands, which seem to receive a slight electric shock when he gains s spot Where water or minerals may be found, lie Is iilso able to state cor rectly, as evidence tdiows, the depth at which water will be reached and the quantity per hour She springs will give. The chairman stated that Mr. Gata- ker named a number of springs in one field, and the total of water there was more than ample for tbe town. Tbe auditor said that what he had to settle was whether the employment of a wa ter finder was legal or not In the only case bearing on theuatter that had come before the courts the Judges had held that "the pretense of power, whether moral, physical or supernatu ral, with intent to obtain money was sufficient to constitute an offense with in the meaning of the law," aud as Mr. Gataker claimed to exercise some such power bis employment was clear ly illegal, and tbe amount of bis fee would be disallowed. ucBilst Uloqaence. In my morning rambles a man sit ting on the ground leaning his back against the wail attracted my. atten tion by a look of squalor iu his appear ance which I had rarely before ob served even in Ireland. Ills clothes were ragged to indecency, aud his face was pale and sickly. He did not ad dress me, and I passed by; but, having gone a few paces, my heart smote me, and I turne l back. "If you aro iu want," said I. with some degree of peevishness, "why do you not beg?" "Sure, it's begging I am," was the reply. "You did not utter a word." "No! Is it joking you are with me, sir? Look there!" holding up the tat tered remnant of what had once been a coat. "Do you see how the skin is speaking through the holes iu my trou sers and the bones crying out turougu mv skin? Look at my sunken cheeks and the famine that's staring in uiy eyes! Man alive, isn't it begging I aui with n hundred tongues?" -Travels In Ireland." Mr. Gctthere'n Proposal. They were talking about their love affairs,- as women will when they get in a confidential mood. Kvery one present except Mrs. Oetthere had told of her experience when the important question was "popped." When Mrs. G. hesitated her companions urged her harder than ever. "Well," she confessed, "If I must tell tbe truth, I never had n proposal." "Did the job yourself iu leap year, eh?" asked Mrs. Sharp. "Not a bit of it. You know, what a diffident man Bob is. I could not help seeing that he loved me devotedly, and I knew I loved him. I was as sure of him as sin is sure of punishment. 1 let two other good chances go by be fore they renched the proposal stake during the seven months of Bob's court ship. One afternoon he sent me a box of chocolates with a beautiful diamond ring inside. . Our initials were engrav ed on one side of the shaft and a chain link on the other. It was quite a shock to my girlhood's dreams of tbo sort of proposal I wanted. I cried a bit and I really believe now they were tears of Joy. Anyway I had the ring on my en gagement finger when Bob called that evening. In a few moments wo were chatting nwny about plans for our wedding as naturally as though we had been engaged for weeks." New York Press. Coinpoatlaic Aiuuurc. As manure is full of bacteria and also contains water, decomposition and the loss of fertilizing material begin at once. If the manure is In fine condi tion it should lie got on the laud as toon as possible that It may have its full effect If It Is composed o'f a mass of coarse straw or cornstalks It is not in shape to be directly utilized by the plants and must be decomposed in a well compacted heap so ns to lose as little of its fertility ns possible. But there is a big difference between prop rrly composted manure aud that that has been left exposed to ralu and snow. The valuable fortlllzlng elements are soluble, and every rain that falls on manure washes out the potash and phosphoric acid, and It runs to waste, souks Into the soil where it is not needed and is lost to the farmer. Ma nure has a cash vulue, but the average farmer will not appreciate that fact until he has wasted his bank account by means of his manure heap. Hoard's Dairyman. . Tne February Designer. .

El Kor Jeter of J H Alton! Pound la Gat.s County.' Story of Bynum'a Escape. Military ; Court of Iflquiryr-Criminal Insane ., Department of Penitentiary is , .: Overcrowded. Members of , ; Legislature Arrive, ' ; Raleigh, Jan. 3. The officials at the sheriffs office are greatly pleased this) morning at the news of the capture of It. D. Bynum, the murderer' of James : H. Alford, but up to a late hour had received no official confirmation of it, in other words no telegram from the sheriff of Gates county. This they thought singular after the communica tion which had passed between them. The officials stated that the deputy sheriffs and police were only fifteen minutes behind Bynum in his flight with h's cousin Bart M. Gatling from the latter's house after the murder. ' The two men ran side by side down a lane going east from the house, then turned to the right to a branch, then came out on the Hollaman road, crossing Walnut Creek about a mile south of the city, going towards Garner. The officers tracked them some distance. The next day they found the tracks below Gar ner. Gatling himself told the officers, after his return, that they were only a quarter of an hour behind Bynum. The sheriff stated that Bynum walked to Tarboro, going northward, from Garner over to the Tarboro road, and at Tar boro hired a buggy and drove to Scot-. land Neck, where he arrived Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. He laid around in the woods at Scotland Neck for twelve hours, probably in order to still further . divert suspicion, and then got a ticket to Gates Station in Gates county. The sheriff received the telegram from the sheriff of Gates, wnich showed that the latter had found the murderer had , arrived in Gates county.

The sheriff here was extreme ly active and had flooded Gates county with postal cards containing a descrip tion of the murderer. The latter had plenty of money and three suits of clothes, relatives having provided him with ample funds. It was thought to have been his purpose to stop in Gates county for a day or so and then go ho Norfolk, that great hiding place for North Carolina criminals. The sheriff said '.that he anticipated no trouble when Bynum was brought back here. -He could not say whether Bynum would be . kept in-jail or in the penitentiary. The sheriff was greatly pleased at the ar-, rangement now in effect at the peni tentiary for safe-keeping. This morning at 11 o'clock the Mili tary Court of Inquiry, called at the re quest of Col. Craige, of the Third Regi ment of the Ni. C. National Guards, met in the Adjutant's office to consider what was his connection, or responsibility, if any, for the killing and wounding of certain enlisted men of the Durham Company of the Third Regiment while on their way home from encampment last August. Col. Walker Taylor, the senior officer of the Court present, is presiding, CoL T. H. Bain being sick and not able to be here. N. B. Norviil, who had charge two years ago, under the new system, of the enrollment of the acts of the Legis lature, is here to again take charge of that important matter, in which he has had so much experience since 1899. Members of the Legislature poured in today and the office seekers were quite put to it to distinguish the members from the office seekers, as to this mat ter, and some rather amusing inci dents occurred. In the criminal insane department of the penitentiary, which is really pro vided for only fifty inmates, there are now fifty-four, and four of these have to be put in the prison cells. The judges have been notified of this status of affairs and asked to send no more of the criminal insane until arrangemeuts are made, for if the number ia increased larger quarters will have to be provider! and there will have to be a greater ap propriation, it being now $5,000, which is just enough to maintain those here. : The Agricultural and Mechanical CoL lege re-opened Thursday, when students registered. Those who arrived lata had: to pay a $1.1)0 fee, which goes to h student's aid fund. A Card of Thanks.
