Heavens, how I ran! The wind buf
feted rny face and buzzed In my nos
trils. The rain pringled upon my skin
and hissed past my ears. I mumbled
Into holes. X tripped over bushes. I
fell among' brambles. I was 'torn and
breathless, and bleeding. .My tongue
was like leather, my feet like lead
and my heart beating like a kettle
drum. 'Still I ran, and I ran, and I ran.
But I had not lost my head, my
friends. Everything was done with a
purpose. Our fugitives always made
for the coast. I was determined to go
Inland, and the more so as I had told
Beaumont the opposDte. I would fly to
the north. Perhaps you will ask me
how I could tell which was which on
eueih a night. I answer that It was
by the wind. I had observed In prison
thait It came from the north, and so,
as long as I kept my face to It, I was
Kolng in the right direction.
Well, I was rushing along In this
fashion when, suddenly, I saw two yel
low lights shining out of the darkness
In front of me. I paused a moment
uncertain whait I ehould do. I was still
In my hussar uniform, you understand
and it seemed to be that the very first
thing that I should aim at was to get
eome dress whidh should not betray
me. If these lights came from a c4
tage. It was probable enough that I
might find what I wanted there. I ap
proached, therefore, feeling very sorry
that I had left my iron bar behind; for
"Perhaps I Can Be of Some Assistance to
.. Yon, Madame."
I was determined to fight to the death
before I ehould be retaken.
But very soon I found that there was
mo cottage there.' The lights were two
lamps hung upon each side of a car
riage, and by their glare I saw that a
broad road lay in front'of me. Crouch-
ing among the bushes, I observed that
there were (wo horse's to the equip
age, that a smaH postboy was stand
ing at their heads and that one of the
wheels was lying, in the road beside
him. I can see tthem now, my friends;
the steaming creatures, the stunted lad
with his hands Ito. their bits, and the
big, black coach,' all shining with the
rain, and balanced upon its three
wiheels. Aa I looked, the window was
lowered, and a pretty Uttle face under
a bonnet paeped out from It.
"What shall I do?" the lady cried to
the postboy in a voice of despair. "Sir
Charles is certainly lost, and I shall
have to spend the night upon the
moor."
"Perhaps I can be of some assistance
to madame," said I, scrambling out
from among the bushes Into the glare
of the lamps. ' A woman in distress is
a sacred thing to me, and this one was

although I was a colonel, I was only
elght-and-twenty years of age.
My word, how she screamed, and
how the postboy Btared! Tou will un
derstand that, after the long race In
the darkness, with my busby broken
in, my face smeared with dirt, and my
uniform all stained and torn with
brambles, I wbb not entirely the sort
of gentleman whom one would choose
to meet In the middle of a lonely moor.
Still after the first surprise, she soon
understood that I was her very hum
ble servant, and I could even read in
her pretty eyes that my manner and
bearing had not failed to produce Its
impression upon her.
"I am sorry to have startled you,
madame," said I. "I chanced to over
hear your remark, and I could not re
fraln from offerlrVj my assistance.'
I bowed as I spoke. You know my
bow, and can realize what Its effect
was upon the lady.
"I am much Indebted to you, sir,"
said she. "We have had a terrible
Journey since we left Tavistock. Final
ly, one of our wheels came off, and here
we are helpless In the middle of a
mui r. My husband, Sir Charles, has
gone on to get help, but I much fear
that he must have lost his way."
I was about to attempt some conso
lation when I Baw beside the lady a
black traveling coat, faced with as
trakhan, which her companion must
have left behind him. It was exactly
what I needed to conceal my uniform.
It Is true that I felt very much like a
highway robber, but then, what would
you have? Necessity has no law, and
I was in an enemy's camp.
I presume, madam, that this is your
husband's coat," I remarked. "You
Will, I am sure, forgive me, If I am
compelled to" I pulled It through
the window as I spoke.
I could not bear to see the look of
surprise and fear and disgust which
came over her face.
"Oh, I have been mistaken in you,"
she cried. "You came to rob me then,
and not to help me. You have the bear
ing of a gentleman, and yet you steal
my husband's coat."
"Madame," said I, "I beg that you
will not condemn me until you know
everything. It is quite necessary that
I should take this coat, but If you will
have the goodness to tell me who it
is who is fortunate enough to be your
husband, I shall see that the coat is
sent back to him."
Her face softened a little, though she
still tried to look severe. "My hus
band," she answered, "Is Sir Charles
Meredith, and he is traveling to Dart
moor prison upon important govern
ment business. I only ask you, sir, to
go upon your way, and to take noth
ing which belongs to him.''
'There is only one thing which be
longs .to hlra. which I covet," said I.
"And . you . have taken It from the
carriage,'.' she cried.
No,". I answered. "It still remains
there.
She laughed in her frank English
way
If, Instead of paying me compli
ments, you were to return my hus
band's coat" she began.
"Madame," I answered, "what you
ask Is quite impossible. If you will
allow me to come Into the carriage, I
will explain to you how necessary this
coat is to me."
Heaven knows into what foolishness
I might have plunged myself had we

not, at this Instant, heard a faint hallo
in the distance, which was answered
by a shout from the little postboy. In
the rain and the darkness I saw a lan
tern some distance from us, but ap
proaching rapidly,
"I am sorry, madame, that I am
forced to leave you," said I. "You can
assure your husband that I shall take
every care of his coat." Hurried as I
was, I ventured to pause a moment to
salute the lady's hand, which she
snatched through the window with an
admirable pretense of being offended
at my presumption. Then, as the lan
tern was quite close to me, and the
postboy, seemed Inclined to Interfere
with my flight, I tucked my precious
overcoat under my arm, anu dashed oft
Into the darkneBS.
And now I set myself to the task of
putting as broad a stretch of moor be
tween the prison and myself as the re
maining hours of darkness would al
low. Setting my face to the wind once
more, I ran until I fell from exhaustion.
Then, after five minutes of panting
among the heather, I made another
start, until again my knees gave way
beneath me. I was young and hard,
with muscles of steel, and a frame

Either Expected or Chosen.
which had been toughened by twelve
years of camp and field. Thus I was
able to keep up this wild flight for an
other three hours, during which I still
gullded myself, you understand, by
keeping the wind in my face. At the
end of that time I calculated that I
had put nearly twenty miles between
the prison and myself. Day was about
to break, so I crouched down among
the heather upon the top of one of
those small hills which abound In that
country, with the Intention of hiding
myself until nightfall. It was no new
thing for me to sleep In the wind and
the rain, so, wrapping myself up in my
thick, warm cloak, I soon sank into a
doze.
But it was not a refreshing slumber.
I tossed and tumbled amid a series of
vile dreams, in which everything
seemed to go wrong with me. At last,
I remember, I was charging an un
shaken square of Hungarian Grena
diers, with a ' single squadron upon
spent horses, just as I did at Elchln-
gen. I Btood In my stirrups to shout
"Vive l'Empereur!" and as I did so,
there came the answering roar from
my hussars, "Vive l'Empereur!" I
sprang from my rough bed, with the
words still ringing In my ears, and
then, as I rubbed my eyes, and won
dered If I were mad, the same cry came
again, five thousand voices in one long
drawn yell. I looked out kfrom my
screen of brambles, and saw in the
clear light of morning the very last
thing that I should have either expect
ed or chosen.
It was Dartmoor prison! There It
stretched, grim and hideous, within a
furlong of me. Had I run on for a few
more minutes In the dark I would have
buteed my busby against the wall. I
was so taken aback at the sight, that I
oould scarcely realize what had hap
pened. Then It all became clear to me,
and I struck my head with my hands In
my despair. The wind had Veered from
north to south during the night, and I,
keeping my' face always toward It, had
run ten miles out and ten miles in,
winding up where I had started. When
I thought of my, hurry, my falls, my
mad rushing and jumping, all ending in
thls'it seemed so absurd, that my grief

changed suddenly to amusement, and I
fell among the brambles and laughed
and laughed, until my sides were sore.
Then I rolled myself up In my. cloak
and considered seriously what I should

COREAN CEREMONY.
A Scheme to Strike the European with
Wonder.
From the St. James' Gazette, -
As I entered Beul a royal procession,
with which the king visited some of
the ancestral tombs, was returning by
another gate. Its novel feature was
that the minister of war rode In Euro
pean evening dress and a "bowler" hat.
On the day following I witnessed a
ceremonial new in Corean history, and
which may have far-reaching results
to Coreans. The Japanese have re
solved to clean the Augean stable of
official corruption, and compelled the
king to begin the task by proceeding
in state to the altar of heaven, and
there taking an oath before the spirits
of his ancestors to the'' proposed re
forms. His Majesty, by exaggerating
a trivial ailment, had for some time de
layed the ceremony, and. even the day
before, a dream, in which an ancestral
spirit appeared to him adjuring him
not to depart from ancestral ways,
terrified him from taking the proposed
pledge. But the spirit of Count Mouye
proved more masterful than the ances
tral spirit; and the oath was taken In
circumstances of great solemnity in a
dark pine wood under the shadow of
Puk Han, at the most eacred altar In
Corea, the center of three inclosures,
in the presence of the eoy-t and digni
taries of the kingdom. Old and serious
men had fasted for two days previous
ly, and In the vast crowd of white
robed and black-hatted men, which
looked down upon the striking scene
from the hills in the gardens of the old
palace, not a word was spoken. The
sky was gray and grim, with a bitter
east wind ominous signs In Corean
estimation.
After a long delay and much question
ing as to whether at the last moment
tho king would resist the foreign pres
sure, the procession, In solemn silence,
emerged from the palace gate; huge
flags, on trident headed poles, purple
bundles carried aloft, a stand of sacred
stones conveyed with much ceremony,
groups of scarlet and blue-robed men
In hats shaped like fools' caps of the
same colors, the king's personal ser
vants In yellow bamboo hats, deco
rated with pink roses, and men carry
ing bannerets. Then came the red silk
umbrella, followed by not the mag
nificent state chair, with its forty bear
ers, but a plain wooden chair with
green roof and glass sides. In which sat
the sovereign, looking very pale and de
jected, borne by only four men. At a
short distance behind followed the
crown prince in a similar chair. Man
darlps, ministers and military officers
were then assisted on their caparisoned
ponies, and each, with two attendants
holding his stirrups, and two more lead
ing his pony, all In gorgeous raiment,
fell in behind the home minister on a
dark donkey conspicuous by his foreign
guard.
Half on hour later, by passing along a
street so narrow that two horsemen
cannot ride abreast, the king reached
the altar of heaven, where the military
escort was left outside the outer wall,
and only the king, dignitaries and at
tendants proceeded to the altar. The
grouping of the scarlet-robed men
under the dark pines was most effective
from an artistic point of view, and
from a political standpoint the taking
of the oath by the Corean king was one
of the most significant acts In the te
dious drama of the present war.

(AUTION
TO OUR PATRONS :
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat.
rona that they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers arc
of the opinion that it fa already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will tako
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully threo
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed WHshburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
