As Leland went down the street he caught opening chords of a piano. A voiee began to sing, and he stopped suddenly, spellbound, It was a girl's untrained voice and stirred dim memories within him. ~15 it possible?” he muttered to him- self as he hurried in the direction of , the unknown singer. “That I8 i ‘Lost Song!’"” His steps were nervous and hasty, | but before he could reach the place where the music seemed to come from it had ceased. The houses stood dark- ly together; there were lights in most of them. He did not know in which | my | He stepped to the curb to plan his next move. Like a vision out of the night came the moment when he had parted from the girl who w~as about to sing the song. She had been standing by the piano; he was seated at it. Before him was the music of the song he had | just written. Then had come the quick quarrel; his hot-headed answer to her criticism ,- of the song. Her surprise had amused him; but she had been hurt at his words and he in anger left. 1t had been a foolish quarrel, as all quarrels are when seen in after years, He had gone to a northern city, and had found life hard. He had met it with good will; but he had never for- gotten her. In some strange way, try as he could he could not recall the song which he had left on the piano. Bits of it came back, but the theme as a whole was beyond him. Now he had heard it. He knew there could be no doubt about it; and it he could find the singer, it must lead him back—to her! He studied the houses with eager earnestness. He decided that the mu- sic he had heard farther up the street came from the one with the light in the front room. He went up, and ringing the bell, waited. The door opened, and a girl looked out curiously. “I heard some one singing a song I was greatly interested in; 1 wonder if you can give me an idea where ths singer was—it was somewhere around in this part?” he asked. “No, I'm sure I can't sir. There's a number of pianos about here,” she “and a number of people who think they can sing. I'm |t afraid 1 can’t help you, but Ul try.” She pointed out houses near by. He went down the steps and looked around, beginning to doubt himself. He wondered if he had dreamed it, imagined the whole affair, belief that he had heard the lost song. He debated the matter, and decided to start onward to his rooms, and had{ even gone a few paces, when he stopped. He would not give up. The neigh- | borhood might get suspicious and have { him locked up, or a policeman might ibe called to examine him. It was rath- | ler unusual for a young fellow to be going from house to house asking if some one there had been singing a song of which he knew not the title ! nor the tune, other than a strain or! two. Ha determined to try it, however; and so he began. He went to four | houses, but got no response; he tried four more. Finally, even as he expected, a po- ' liceman appeared on the scene, hav- ing been summoned by some one who had said the young man was intoxi- . cated. {the young." | late Lord Wolseley and other fumous | has replied to the petition in a letter jall cruelty has been banished” from 1913, JULY 12, Cruelty in Wexly Run of Hounds and Horses.

A hard press- | ! ed hare which the boys of the cnlle-gP had been hunting with a pack ofw hounds (for beagles). maintained at, the college for this purpose, twice swam the river with the pack close | behind and a half hundred boys vell- ing like flends on the banks, and was in the act of swimming it a third time | when it was pulled under and killed amid the enthusiastic cheers of the | young Etonians who, of course, are mostly the sons of noblemen and oth- ; o aristoerats, and form the nucleus of the ruling class of the future in this country This termination to the regular weekly run of the Eton beagles was a little more brutal than usual, but not much more. The Eton beagles, which are supported by subscriptions, nearly always succeeded in killing, as ‘ the phrase goes, when the carcass ol‘ the slaughtered hare is whirled tri- umphantly round the head of the chief | boy whip and torn to pieces by the yelping pack, amid whoops of tri- umph from a gloating field. A simi- lar triumph of the Eton beagles, it may be remembered, was recalled by that noble sportsman, Lord Rosl-l more, in his recent book of reminis- cences in these words: “One of the prettlest things I ever saw was a hare, very hard pressed, that took to the water and swam right out into the middle with all the hounds after her. but she was, unfor- tunately, so beat that she was| drowned from sheer exhaustion half- | way across.” The latest exhibition of brutality at Kton has shocked humanitarians, and an influentially signed petition was presented the other day to Canon ! Lyttelton, the reverend head master of Eton college, begging him to do | away with the pastime of hare hunt- ing at Kton, on the ground that its ef- | feet is “to stimulate cruelty among | This, by the way, is by : no means the first petition of the kind | i that has been laid before a head ol‘ he famous college with a similar ob- ject, others in the past having been | | signed by Herbert Speucer, Sir Fred- | erick Treves, Sir A, Conan Doyle, the | men, but all without avail, After due reflection Canon Lyttel ‘ ‘ton. who himself is the son of a lord, | in which he declines to do away with the beagles, and an exceedingly re- markable letter it is. To begin with, this man of God, who, before becom- ing head master of Eton, was the honorable canon of St. Albans, and who is the author, among other hooks, of one called “Studies in the Sermon of the Mount,” asserts that far from there being an increase of cruelty among English boys, “many educators are not without misgivings at the al- most unnatural gentleness of the mod- ern schoolboy compared with his foro- father.” “How insigniticant, then,” says the canon, “must the influence of this Kind of hunting be in the opposite di- rection.” The reverend canon ends his letter by declartug that, “as far as possible, the hunting and killing of hares by Leland proved that he was not, con- ‘vinced the man of his sanity; and asked the officer's advice. The latter | ‘was evidently reached by the story {and he said in his soft Irish: “Ef ye lcun whistle a bit o’ the tune, lad, why not." Jest the parts ye know! Walk up an’ down, an' if anyone safs a vord, I'll say a word, provided ve ’donl do it too long.” Leland undertook the strollvd up and down in the region ! whistling the strains to the place I where he could go no further. He did h a number of times, and both men , walted for the answer. ' “Try it again, mon,"” the bluecoat | sald. l He whistled it again, and this time there was a quaver in it—a—quiver of lost hope. Leland turned away, des- pairing. “Hark ye, lad!” Faint and clearly, a whistle had caught up the strain and was carry- ing it on to a finish. Leland was shaking with eagerness. “It's the song! the song!"” “Don’t get too sure it's your gal, Iad. It may be one who sang it fuet— hey, see, there’s some one coming!' We didn't think o' the little house in back! There she is!" I A shadowy figure came toward them _helluungly. But Leland had recog- | nigzed the form, and he went to meet it. It came into his arms with a low, :joyoul cry, and said: | “O, Lee, i8 it really you? I was m my room, asleep, when the girl at the house—I'd taught her the song be- ! cause ehe loved it—sald some one was whistling it; then I heard it and I knew it could be no other than you. It seems so good to see you; and we'll forget, won't we? | The burly policeman, looking on with pleased eyes and comments to himself, suddenly turned his back and marched off.
