On a tin plate on the foundation stone of the bridge the roidelghteenth century constructors carved their emotions In lofty language. "That there may remain to posterity a monument of this citys affection to the man who, by the strength oit his genius, the steadiness of his mind and a kind and happy contagion of his probity and spirit (under the divine favor and fortunate auspices of George II.), recovered, augmented, and secured the British empire In Asia, Africa and America, and restored the ancient reputation and Influence of his country among the nations of Knrope, the citizens of London have unanimously voted this bridge to be Inscribed with the name of William Pitt." there are robust Town of Many Languages.

At this moment the gigantic Otto went by them on his way to the ring, and as be passed the girl a look of reproach showed in his blue eyes. He entirely ignored her companion.

Cheer after cheer attended her performance and she was like a pleased child when she returned to the dressing tent It was not until she saw the huge cage being hauled into the ring that her misgivings returned, and she hastened to take up a position where she could observe everything that took place.

The scheme was successful, and during the four remaining years of Powhatan's life absolute peace reigned for tbe first time In the Virginia colony. Pocahontas meanwhile was kindly treated In captivity, and at the suggestion of her new friends, took the name of Rebecca as a substitute for her Indian title. When the Indian girl had been at the colony something less than a year she was betrothed to John Rolfe, a prosperous trader of good English family, who appears to have married her' more from religious enthusiasm and political ambition than from love.

But Francesco was accustomed to danger and he did not lose his presence of mind for an Instant. Agile as a cat, he was upon hts feet before the rushing fury reached him, and slashing fiercely with his whip, he dodged swiftly about the ring before his It was plain, clumsy antagonist however, that It would be only a matter of time until he was exhausted and his only hopo lay In the assist anta who were swarming to hit rescue. A doann men armed with long pol were hurrying to his aid, but they eu countered a totally unforeseen obsta cle. Fascinated by the mans awfu, danger, the crowd had packed them selves around the cage in such a dense mass that the rescuers found It an impossible task to force their way through them. Shouts and curses were of no avail. The people were blind and deaf to everything but the tragedy that was being enacted before them. A cry of dismay rang from Sldonlas lips, in an agony of grief she turned to the faithful Otto, who waa stand lng a few paces away. "Otto, save him! she cried. "And why should I? was the fierce He Is my enemy. Had he reply. not come between us with his treach ery and deceit you would love me still. "Otto! she pleaded, sinking to hei knees while the tears streamed down her face, "save him for my sake. Quick or it will be too late. The stern look faded from the eyes as he looked down upon her.

He was not a moment too soon. Francesco was down and the bear was tearing furiously at hlB shoulder when he flung himself between them. And now commenced a mighty struggle over the body of the unconscious man. The bears fury was doubled at finding himself confronted by an opponent who, instead of dodging and running away, stood up and buffeted him with awful blows that stunned and blinded him. The man was Irresistible In the first encounter and the bear retreated sullenly, Otto grasped the Insensible .man and dragged him toward the door of the cage, but before he reached It the grizzly attacked him with renewed ferocity. Four tlmea the angry beast tore Francesco from his grasp and four times the man beat him back from his prey. At length when he bad almost gained the door and escape seemed probable, the trainer recovered his senses and dragged himself weakly to his feet. He bestowed a single glance upon the struggling pair before him; then he turned and slipping from the cage slammed the. door behind him.
