Listen to this: You see a red light. The ship is on the port tack and the wind at north; what course is that ship steering ,to a point? The Doctor rose with a gesture of despair.

But I must absolutely forbid you to go further with It. But, pa, asked Ida, with an air of innocent inquiry In her big blue eyes, "what are we to do when your commands and Mrs. Westmacotts advice are opposed? You told us to obey her. She says that when women try to throw off their shackles, their fathers, brothers and husbands are the very first to try to rivet them on again, and that in such a matter no man has any authority. "Does Mrs. Westmacott teach you that I am not the head of my own The Doctor flushed, and his house? grizzled hair bristled in his anger. "Certainly. She says that all heads of houses are relics of the dark ages. The Doctor muttered something and stamped his foot upon the carpet. Then without a word he passed out into the garden, and his daughters could see him striding furiously up and down, cutting off the heads of the flowers with a switch. Oh, you darling!

Latent U. C. Go?t de tanceau and Ills Daughter, Who May Become an Heiress. Juneau, Alaska, has a Russian mance, or what it fully expects will s rode- velop into a romance, and it is almost as interesting a subject for discussion as the new gold fields. When Count do 4 - visited Juneau eight years ago, he was 22 years old, and he followed the example of other visitors before him. He took aij Alaskan maiden as his housekeeper. She was attractive in features and affectionate in disposition. A girl, named Lucy, was born to them, and the young count was- devoted to her. He was satisfied with his housekeeper and very fond of his little daughter. He decided to remain In Alaska and enjoy his new possessions. The count conceived the idea of building a castle on Point Lookout, overlooking the town, and set men at work felling trees and building the foundation. A cyclone came along and blew the men and the lumber off Point Lookout, and the count changed his plans. He bought a lot of land in the plateau valley below and set a gang of men. at work clearing It. After he had spent several thousand dollars in this preliminary work hisather ordered him to return to Russia. Before leaving he deeded over ten lots in Juneau, three lots in Douglas City, and a cannery site at Cape Fanshaw to his daughter Grace. The count said good-b- y to his Alaskan family, and left his daughter in the care of Frank Starr of Juneau. Since the counts return to Russia his father has died, and he is now in possession of large estates. Frank Starr is now in correspondence with him, and he believes that the count will provide generously for his daughter. So it is among the possibilities that this wall in time may become an heiress and a young woman of some importance In Russia as well as in Alaska. St. Paul Pioneer Press. MONARCH OF HIS SPECIES. Killing of an Alligator That Measured Fourteen Feet In Length. To F. A. Dennettee and to his brother, Elton D. Dennettee, belongs the credit for the killing of Fort Georges famous gator, a giant in size and so old that his back is crusted with barnacles and moss. But their encounter with the saurian was not without ex cltement and some damage to the hunt ers. They found the gator in one of the small creeks that run through the Island, sneaked upon him in their boat and let him have a bullet from a Winchester. The big fellow gave a roar of rage and pain and at once started for the small craft, his jaws wide open and his tail lashing the water into yeasty foam. They jammed an oar Into the gators mouth and he crunched It Into pulp, and then they took the other to stem his onslaughter, but he broke that, too, and ground it into kindling wood. When almost upon the boat he swung his tail against it and nearly upset it. Elton Dennettee was knocked and no sooner had the gator seen him than he made for him, and if the young man had not hastily scrambled on board he would certainly have met an awful fate. The two men had two pairs of oars and with these they managed to keep the little craft away from a swing of the saurians tail, which would have crushed in the sides as If they were paper. While gone of the hunters kept clear of the enraged beast the other kept pumping lead into him from the Winchester until the water was covered with red foam, telling that the monster was badly hurt. Finally he appeared to give up the ghost, turned over on his back and floated upon the surface. They lassoed and towed him ashore, but the gator was not dead, and still had any quantity of fight In him, and so, when one of the sportsmen ventured too close the gator gave a lash with his tail, knocked the young fellow upside down and paralyzed his legs for the time being and went for him, grabbing his foot in his frightful Jaws, and inflicting a painful and perhaps serious injury. It was just two minutes before the jaws of the beast could be pried open, and it was an hour later before the last spark of life fled from the reptile. - , " over-boar- d, Fasting Carried to Extremes. The people of Servia are forever fasting. The most severe fast Is that of Lent, which lasts seven whole weeks. .Then, on the 30th of June, Is the fast of St. Peter, which lasts two weeks, and is observed by some persons for four weeks. From the 1st to the 15th of August, the fast of St. Mary, and Christmas Is preceded by a forty days fast. Apart from these lengthy fasts every Friday and every Wednesday throughout the year is held to be' a fast day. Fasting in Servia' Is no mere change of diet; it means real abstinence and privation. At Pirot this fasting has assumed such serious proportions as to constitute a grave medical problem and a national danger, for It affects seriously the health of the population, the strength and fighting capabfiities of the soldiers. The medical men reckoned that, on the whole, half the days In the year were fast days. This means that for some six months in the year the population of Pirot and neighborhood Is only fed bread, raw onions, and raw vegetables. No cooking is dona; not a morsel of meat Is allowed. r f A a young Russian, Lanceau, Ilq ort a j w A ICO Miles an Hour.

The question, indeed, has sifted down to a matter of mechanical appliances and the perfection of means which will make such It transit practicable and not too expensive. Is a question of inventing the wheels which could stay on the track at such a high speed and the apparatus that would withstand the enormous strain involved. That these problems will be overcome is apparently the belief of those most competent to judge. What the introduction of such improvements would mean in the conduct of modern business methods can be but faintly foreseen. One hundred and fifty mlle3 an hour 3, GOO miles a day when it becomes possible to travel at that rate the world will indeed be a little place, so far as concerns travel across its land areas.
