Jenkins sighed as he punched out tbe light "Thank you, sir and gdbd night" be murmured. . How long I slept I cannot tell, as they say In stories, you know; but I was brought Jolly wide, awake by a light that shone through the bed room's open door. For If there's one thing will wake me quicker . than everything else. It's a light in the room at night. Fact Is, I always want it as black as the' what's-lts-name cave, or else I can't sleep. And this -lght came' from the small electric stand on the writing-desk. I could tell that by the way It shone. -; " And Just then the little silver gong In there chimed three. Jolly rum hour for anybody to be up unless they were having some fun or were sick.' So I raised my bead and called softly: : "Jenkins or Billings I" ' No answer. Reluctantly 1 : swung out and stepped within the next room. Not a soul there, by Jove! Then I moved over to Billings' door, which was wide open for coolness, like my own. I could not see the shadowed alcove In which the bed was placed, and so I stood there hesi tating, hating awfully to risk the pos sibility of disturbing him, don t you know. And Just then my eyes, rang ing sleepily across the room toward the private ball, Were startled by the apparition of an open doorway. Startled aU right! And yet by Jove, I was In such a Jolly fog, I Just stood there, nodding and batting at It for a full minute before I could take It In.. - "What 1 call devilish queer," I de- VsUtJU A vv aisiQU ,vfv wvv bead out into the dark halt -"Billings!

I Just knew If once I got excited and thor oughly awake, it would take me near ly ten minutes to Ret to sleep again.) And. by Jove, Just then the excite - ment came, for I got hold of the fact after I had stared at It a while, that tbe door of my apartment opening into the outor corridor was standing ajar. Why, dash It, it was not only standing, It was moving. Then sud denly the broad streak of light from the corridor wldoued under the Im pulse of a freshening breeia, and the door swung open wlm a bang. And t!in I heard my name spoken. Ty Jove, I hud been standing there with my mouth open, bobbing my head like a sillv dodo: but, give you r.il . -V.-.-.-,-i'.--Vw-- '. word, X waa suddenly wide awake as jolly owl wagon! ' - . Away down the corridor by -. the mall chute, a man waa standing, read- lag a framed placard. Nothing partio- ularly remarkable la this, but aa the door banged he turned 1 bia ; bead sharply and ejaculated: "Dammit! Now. that will wake Llgbtnut!" : ,;v-' I was surprised, because I couldnt recall ever having seen him before; yet, standing as be did under tbe light, I had opportunity for a devilish good vie. -v: He waa a heavy set old party, rather balttlsh, with snowy mutton chops and a beefy completion, that was Jolly well tanned below tbe hatband line, you know.

What's more, you know, 1 didn't care a Jolly hang. But the thing that dashed me was that Just as I moved toward the door to close It, he uttered my name again and came 'straight toward me as though to speak. . . Bo I had to wait, by Jove, for 1 couldn't close the door in his face. Awfully rotten thing to do that, you know. : . t -: -- "Lost his floor and wants to In quire," I decided. -v.'.':-" And then as he toddled across the last yard and stopped before me, 1 saw that tbe old chap was in his night things some darkish sort of pajamas. "By George!" he exclaimed with a leer that showed his almost toothless old gums. "Bet you never would guess what I got up for!" - ' .w-No-dash it, I didn't even car to try. I just coughed a little.' "He. be!" he giggled. "Woke up and remembered bad promised Mos Ble Fttadango of The Parisian Broil ers' a box of steamer flowers.

And I answered rather coldly r "Sorry you knqw; no Idea." And I opened tbe door wide. But the old rascal never moved; Just stood there, chuckling horribly. "Well," she'll be back in the tall," he cackled. "And see-here, old chap, will introduce you if you like. Tou need waking up!" And here I gave a Jump and yelled "Ouch!" , For the old fool had dug his thumb Into my ribs. Only then did it dawn on me that he was drunk. Of course that was it, and unless I got rid of him the old bore would stand and twaddle the rest of the night i reached for his band and shook It . : ""We'll have a talk about It some time," I said pleasantly. "Just now, don't you think we'd better each get to bed r So devilish late, you know." He alapped me on the shoulder with t blow that almost brought me to the floor. Felt like be struck me with a bam, dont you know! "Right old chap," ba said; "very delicately put; wont keep you up an other minute. Believe I'd like, a drink first, though, if you don't mind." . Devilish bored as I waa, I decided .the easiest escape was to humor him. All right," I said, leaving the door open and stepping Into the room; "I'll get you a glass of water." "Water I " be exclaimed, following me in. "Say, dont get funny; it's not becoming to you." He leered at me hldeouHly. Ho went right to the corner where stood my cellarette.

In fact, I am still of the opinion that you are mistaken; the evidenca of your headline to the contrary notwith standing, I do not believe that there i a teacher In North Carolina who would be aggrieved at the comparison. Throughout the bdy of the article t ou persistently endeavor to give the impression that the Uaderwood Bureau nas been sending out circulars abusive of the teaching profession; you never say to straight out,; for yon know very well that no such eirculars- have beer MM eutftot tf TejJeate, innuendo and insinuation yon strive to give that faU impression.

Such describes the actions of the Stale Republican Convention that met here today. To name four dele gates at large to attend the Chicago convention, was supposed to be the chief purpose of the meeting, but the anti Taft men took charge, and it was thereafter a slaughter for any one that said Taft Judge Robinson struck the key note when he aaid "what we will do for Taft before we leave will be enough and plenty," and it was. i Chairman J. M, Morehead after call ing the convention to order at 12:17 o'clock, left bis legacy in the shape of the credentials committee. Turning the chairmanship over to Zib Vance Watser. Mr. Morehead left the hall, and waa not again beard from. It took the Credentials Committee three hours ' to frame its report, which the convention tore to pieces in an hour, beginning with Tom Settle, who aspired to a seat in the convention, but who never had "a look in." Walter Henry was un fortunate in mentioning that he waa Taft. He was knocked out in spite of his 300 pounds, by the uproar which the name of Taft caused. Tbe pent up feelings of such Republicans as Virgil Lusk, Judge Robinson and Richmond Pearson, and these men are past mas tent in language framers. In matter before the convention had to be letted, lest anything in it savored of Taft. It had to be labelled T. R. or get the hook. There was a semblage only by order, - Ike Meekins was in his glory md the veteran Dr. Cy Thompson after tn absence fr m political activity of no'e than a dozen years, was foremost n the uproar. The resolutions of Rich mond Pearson's condemning President Taft were as bitter and biting as words wold make them. - The convention rulped them down as a sweet morsel. The convention consummated its work by strictly adhering to Rough Rider methods. It named a new chairman, Z. V. Walser. It selected for delegates at large to Chicago, T. Owen, Z. .V. Walser, Richmond Pearson, Cyras Thompson, and recommended Richmond Pearson for National committeeman. It waa a convention that Theodore R. would have gloried in.

Washington, May 14. -All of tbe tar iff bills that have pawed tbe bouse will be disposed of by the senate before the end of the session and possibly without interfering with plans for early ad j mmmant, according to Senator Sim mons,' in charge of these measures in tbe senate. ' 'When the agricultural bill is dupoo ed of we will taker up the metal bill again,' said Senator - Simmons, "and after a few more speeches we will fix a day for a vote. Naturally appropria tion: bills are given preference when tbey eome ap, in order to permit the conference committee to get to work on them as soon as possible; but it is not intended they shall long prevent consideration of the tariff measures." Tbe Senatar aaid the chemical billa would follow the metal bill and after that would come the wool bill. He thought the debate on these measures would not be extended as that on the metal bill. The general understanding is that the progressive Republicans will dictate the tariff course of the senate. The Democrats are expected to go on rec ord for their own bill and then accept the progressive measures with such modifications, aa they may secure. How to Make Paint. Take 10 gallons of L. ft M.
