A recent signature there may have been lialf a dozen names below It indicated that J. P. Holton Lord Holton, of Blr znlngham, England, and valet had ar rived and taken suite No. 461. He did not care to interrogate the clerk. He hurried outJnJ the warm night air, and Jtiniping Into a cab directed the) driver to take him to his club. Ar riving before tbe spacious club house, lie ran In and upstairs to the library in tiot baste, and got down the thick vol ume of Burke's Peerage. What was his relation to his goddess? He would bunt this little round fat Kngllshman to his very ancestors! Burke's Peerage record read as follows: Bolton (Sir John Philip Besmlth) lord Holton, Baron of Birmingham county and a Baronet Lineage The family of Holton was Seated in Lancaster, afterward liir mlnffham, as early a 1381. Thomas Holton In 1472 married a Lancashire lady, by whom he had ten sons nod three daughters. (Then follow two columns of lineage, then Lord Holton's Immediate family.) James Philip Holton m. Elizabeth, d. f Sir Thomas Few. i B.( son, John P., b. 1S37. B., son, Thomas, b. 1839, d. 167. B., dau., KllsaJbeth, b. 1845, d. 1892. John Philip Besmith married Lady Camilla Barton, J8. Issue-John Philip, b. 1871, d. 18S4; Henry, b, 1872, ' d. 1875; Camilla Ellza Iwth; b. 187. .

"Are you sure he's dead?" asked the manager,. In a state of excitement and bewilderment. "I don't smell any chloroform on this are you sure he's dead?" "Dead?

She would not even spoil his nip! She kissed him would a murderess kiss her sleep ing victim? Yes, Bhe was Innocent and lie determined coolly on his first step. The detectives must not np pronch her until nfter the perform ance. He tapped Swift lightly on the shoulder. "You remember me, Mr. Swift?

In an Interesting article on the va rious "Isms" of American politics, their sudden growth ani equally sudden wane the Chicago Tlms-Herald gives this brief sketch of an organization once on every man's tongue, but now al most 'Wholly forgotten: The Kuklux Klan was curiously organized. Its local lodges were "dens;" Its masters "ryclops;" tho members "ghouls." A county was a "province," governed by a "grand giant" and foul "gmbllns." A congressional district was a "domin ion," governed by a "grnnd titan" and six "furies." A. state was a "irealm," governed by a "grand dragon" and eight "hydras." The whole country was the "empire," governed by a "grand wizard" and ten "genii." The banner of the K. K. K. was tri angular, a black 'dragon on a yellow field with a black border. Its mytte t'cs were never to be written, but only orally communicated. The distinctive feature of Its dress was a covering for th head descending to the 'breast, holes being cut for eyes and mouth, the w'-iole. being covered with fantastic ant soul-harrowing emblems and symbols calculated to trrorlr.e the negro heart, while gtotesiiue and fantastic enougn to excite ridicule. The abuses that grew tip under the klan compelled con TPs? to Interfere, Upon the request of President Grant congress passed an act declaring the kuklux organization a conspiracy ag-ilnst the political rights of cunaln people, and provided severe penulties for all who conspired to deprive any citi7.cn of his rights.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS. beginning todny, the 2,000 employes of the Phoenix Iron and Ilrldgn com pany, at H'hociilxville, will get an ad vance in wages, Philadelphia capitalist have formed a company to be known ns the Glrnrd Ooal Mining company, and purchased tihe lilax-k Diamond colliery for $30,000. The company will construct a new breaker arrj sink another slope. The entire plant will give employment t.o 1,000 men and boys. The Cleveland Steel company has notl flod Its employes that owing to In creased lvualn':a nnd better prices for pYodtlet, on nnd after July 1 the present tonruge rates on the plate mill and plate mill furnace will be advanced 10 per cent. Common laborers alBO re ceive an advance In wages. About 150 are bcnefi'.ed. ' The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail road company has made a flat advance of $1 a torn on all grades of Iron ship ments, restricted to three months. By the Hiding scale arrangement they have with their coat miners this will advance their wages 14 per cent. - The latter adva.nce goes Into effect July 1. About 3,500 men In the employ of the Tennessee company and 5,000 others In the district are benefited by the ad vance. All the Birmingham furnace companies have advanced prices In ac cordance with the Tennesse company's ichedule. The Philadelphia Inquirer says a to tally wrong account of last week's mee ting of the sales agents was spread abroad. The conference, it adds, far from being harmonious, was on Vhe verge of adjourning fine die more than or.i.'o, and the fM-calltd agreement to mine 2.S00.0OO tons nnd maintain prices was not unanimous, and was voted against the protest of orjj prominent Interest, But a more important mat ter than tililtt Is t,ho fuilure of the effort tha was mado to harmonise trade diffi culties for the present. The dull season In tho trade is now over, and the active season Is at hau l. No matter what the final dlf Hisltlon of the percentage ques Mimi may be, there Is no reason why the companies phould not get a fair price for coal during Uiu active months of the year In fact, nn advance of to cent might Im made. It Is reported that one sales agent went to Ihe meet ing with a plan for a "modus Vivendi" providing for the regulation. of tuiiiinge nnd prices for the balance of the year. It was strongly supnorttd. But the o'.tltude of the Delaware, Lavkawtin na and Western representative was so uggrcsslve that the echoine did not von obtnin a hearing. This opposi tion from bhe vice-president of the strongest coal-carry'li-g road Is In the highest degree Hlgr.lllcaii't, for It was evidently t:iken In pursuance of In Hti'uctloii'i from the director.
