-V . ...,,.,m,-,,,.. ' Revolt T ' Through the gathering gloom we crept, a band of hard, lean, vengeful men. Up toward a tall pile of grey stone, toward where the chateau of our lord reared its grim Visage, longfhidden muskets and swords, improvised pikes, pitchforks, and knives gripped in our horny hands, more used to the plough and spade. Swiftly a thin line of men was thrown around the castle. Swiftly the huge ironfbound door swung wide, opened from within by our servant com' rades. Swiftly but silently we mounted the stairs to his lordship's chamber. There he sat, as we reached the room, pondering, we thought, upon further ways of squeezing us. I was the first to enter. On hearing my foot' fall he turned, an oath on his lips, his hand on his sword. My flintflock roared. We rifled his strong boxes, consigning to the fire those papers that made us slaves, coniscating his riches. Below we could hear the sounds of other looting. Then, piling straw and tar in every room, we fired the building and fled. Black, oily smoke poured forth, tongues of flame licked from every crevice. With a great shower of sparks and a deep roar the floors collapsed. At length the roof caved in, and the last walls crumbled. So perished the chateau and its race.

vnuv-1--'Q- It Happened One Night One WINTER'S day in LONDON, DURAN a RAYNE, the KING was ABEL to hide from his NOBLES, disguise himself as a TAYLOR, and enter a BARR in order to observe his subjects. The place was patronized by both GOODMAN and GROSSMAN. He found a KOPPEL of old menus to REID, and then asked a waiter, Give me a COLE BOTTLER SI'IERRY. Then he secluded himself in a hidden corner of the room. Suddenly a PORTER entered. Addressing a MILLER, he said, MABRY you have the PRICE of one of the EEINSTEINS of ale sold here? But the MILLER, instead of answering, rudely turned to a husky FISCHER, BROWN from labor under a blistering sun on hot seas, and said, Great SCOTT, I CANTWELL see how this man HASS such nerve! HWELLEN, you're WRIGHT, was the answer. The PORTER ROSE in great EUREY. He was MADDE'N a tiger. Think you're WEISS, don't you? he asked. Aw, go slip on an ORENGE PEEL, interrupted the FISCHER, AKIN for a fight. The PORTER started to TURNER around, divesting himself of his RAYNEfcoat. And then the CANNON exploded. NEVINfSeven thousand years was there such a battle. The RUEBE and the tough PORTER fought desperately. The SCALES were even. Even a BUTCHER never saw so much blood. The PORTER led with a WRIGHT to his opponent's TEMPLE, who dodged with a LIGHTEOOT so that his aggressor hit empty air. The gentle KING, in his secluded corner, was horrified. He told a SINGER, who before the fight had been singing CARROLS, to call a KOPF. He started to TURNER way towards the HALL, but a KOZAC inter' rupted, and would not permit him to go. The men were in an awful CLINCHfyj when suddenly the BARR' tender yelled, PULLfej way! That must have been an official password or signal, for the men stopped at once. They were an awful sight, being almost BAER. Some waiters, busy as BEAVERS, started to clear the floor, everything exSCHEPT the floor being by this time peaceful and orderly. The puzzled KING turned to a BAKER, To be FRANK with you, he said, I CQDANCY how to deSEIFER this. These men don't seem to know the difference between REIKEN wrong. You don't understand, he was told. They HADDER do that. They made a BUCK for doing that! The NOBLE ruler went home with a larger fund of understanding than he had ever acquired before in so short a time. Lillian Bregmtm.
