Then the owner of the gig, whose temper was rising every second, ran in and dealt the skipper a heavy blow on the head. The blow dispelled an idea which was slowly forming there of asking the extent of the damage, and if it were not too much, offering to make it good, Ideas of settlement vanished; ideas of honor, morality, and even es- cape vanished too; all merged in the one fixed idea of giving the other man a harder blow than he had given.

The nearest station to the "Rase of Essex" was five miles distant, 0 fact which (owing perhaps to the e.cpen- sive nature of newspaper• charges) did not appear in the advertisement. "It' a nice little place," said the landlady of the Railway hotel, as they asked her opinion over lrch; "there's a little land goes with it. If you -want to drive over, I'd better be having something got ready." Mrs. Tipping, who halved the duties with Flower, she doing the ordering end he the paying, assented, and in a sh,a't time they were bowling rapidly along through narrow country lanes to their destination. The skipper noticed with pleasure the lonely na- ture of the country, and his heart heat fast as he thought of the chances of success of a little plan to escape. So far as appearance went the 1011 was o:;cellent. Roses clustered round the aoreh and hung in fragrant bunches from the walls, while three or four sturdy lime trees in one corner threw a grateful shade over a rustic • table and settles. Flower, with a grateful sigh, said that it was the very thing. Even Mrs. Tipping, after a careful inspection, said that they might do worse; Dick, with an air of professional gravity, devoted most of his attention to the cellar, while the engaged couple walked slowly rouul. the immense garden in the rear ex- changing tender whispers. "We'll think it over and let you know," said Mrs. Tipping' to the ]and- • lord. "There's been a lot after it," said he slowly, with, a g1:nce at his wife. "And yet it ain't gone," said the business -like Mrs. Tipping, pleasantly. "I'm going tc take it, mar," said Miss Tipping, firmly. Mfrs.

The animal sprang forward madly ,fust as .Dick 'Pipping', who had push- ed the driver 9111 of the way, rushed out in pursuit. There was a hard white road in front and it took it at a gallop, the vehicle rocking from side to side behind it as Flower played on it with the whip. Tipping was close behind, and the driver a good second. Flower, Iesving the horse to take care of itself for a time, >toad upriglit in the carriage and hulled eo'hions at his forcmo,t pursuer. The third cush- ion was long and limp, and,-- falling on end in ft'ont of him, twined itself round his swift -moving legs and brought hint heavily to the ground. "He's winded," said Flower, as he saw the coachman stop and help the other man slowly to his feet; "shows what a cushion can do." He clambered on to the seat, as a bend in the road shut the others from his sight, ani gathring up the reins, gave himself over to the joyous feel- ings of his new-;'ound liberty as they rushed through the air. Ilia ideas of driving were elementary, and his mode of turning corn -ere wal to turn thein quickly and get it over; hot he drove on for miles without mishap, and, the horse having dropped. to r. steady trot, began to consider his future move- ments. 'They'll be setting the wires to work, I expect,' nue tht.ught, soberly, "What a comfortable old world this must have been before they invented steam and telegraph. I'll go a little -bit farther, and then tie it up to a tree." He made what he considered an en- dearing noise with Ills mouth, and the startled animal at once bounded for- ward with the intention of getting out of hearing. A gentle incline favored the pace, which was now so consider- able that the skipper, seeing another craft approaching him, waved his hand toward:; it winningly. "I wonder whop ought to get out of the way?" he said, thoughtfully; "1 s'pose the horse knows." • He left it to that able quadruped, after giving it a little b.n • en the flank with the butt end of the whip to of the road, but holt 0 mile Tarthor along, on the right-hand shit!, the field. stretched away upwards to meet a wood.

He rat on the trunk of a fallen nine to regain his breath, and eagerly look- ed about him. To his disappointment he saw that the wood was of no great depth, but was a mere belt of pines running almost parallel nlith the road he had- quitted.

Innocent Persona -Shot in Poland and Thousands Deported Daily. Under the heading "German Rule in Warsaw; Coercing the Poles by Ter- rorism to Slavery," the London Times published recently a narrative describ- ing outrages almost rivalling some of Sum committed in Belgium, as told by an educated Pole belonging to the Govermnent of Warsaw who hes just arrived in holland. The Amsterdam Telegraaf publishes this statement of conditions of life in Warsaw under German military domination: "The Germans," he said, "have in- stalled themselves in the great Polish city as if it had been their home for some time past. "All materials of industry have been confiscated—copper, factory machin- ery, dynamos, motor parts, cotton, wool, etc„ even clothing and carpets. Provisions are becoming constantly scarcer. The poorest part of the pop- ulation in Wola has begun to kill dogs foe food, "Courts of blood perform their work without cessation and firing parties are always busy. In the neighborhood of Pitwa absolutely in- nocent persons have been shot. Search is continually being made of private houses to discover a trace of connec- tion with the allies, A month's im- prisonment was inflicted On 0 roan who pretended to stop his ears during the passing of Gement fifers, and a similar sentence was imposed for not saluting the flag. "Before my departure I saw how the Germans proceed to the sweeping; away of men. At night cordons of troops surrounded the working-class quarters in Warsaw with loaded rifles. 'Alien, berates' (Fall out) ordered a sergeant. Then occurred a tragic scene. Soldiers chose here and there those men and women whom they thought suitable, They separated brothers from sisters and mothers from children, and compelled those whom they declared to he good for slavery to leave immediately. Thus more than 100,000 men and women were removed from the part of the country under the government of Warsaw. Young women and girls were torn from families and collected in groups pell-mell with women of evil life, Tho most beautiful women were reserved for t110 ofTieca;s.
