and French. In fact, he 'comes from
.Germany, and handles the tongue of
the Fatherland with fine abandon, mix

Going has not been precisely easy for
Ilia,' because the -color line prohibits
long chances when It comes to the rep

Is persevering, and whenever he hears
of a likely chance fur a match he hikes
thither.
For a period Vincent tried to fool
the natives in the' states by affecting
the headdress of the Oriental, and pa
raded with a raudv turban ndornlns- his
cranium. , But the moment he broke
loose in a pure Teutonlo strain stuff
was off. .
During one of the big cards in the
Coliseum in Chicago Vincent-was talk

At that moment two Irishmen en

some political friends.'
Finally Mike caught the notes issuing
from Ilia's throat, and his hair stood
on end. In an attitude of intense eaves
dropping-he bent hearer and ,. the color
fled from his face.
Stepping lightly to where his part

touched him softly on the shoulder.
