BYRAM C. ROBBINS, the leading attorney for the defense in the Knapp murder case at Richmond, made a speech in defense of his client that would exhaust the average man. He spoke for twelve hours and reviewed every particle of the evidence in the case. This speech is among the record breakers.

THE defense of the cigarette by Dr. W. B. Fletcher, fell so flat that it excited little or no comment. The doctor's best friends pity him and regret to see such brilliant mind so far astray. It I will be a long time before anyone is able to convince the great business concerns of the country I that the cigarette is as harmless as tea or coffee.
THE new woman has invaded the pancake domain. She comes in the person ot a college girl in Ohio who is working her way through school and" waiting on the coilege table to pay her way. Her strenuous instincts came to the surface recently when a "smart alec" stole a plate of pancakes which she had just prepared for herself. He deliberately sat down to eat them in ber presence when she picked up a plate, struck him on the head with it and put him down and but. It will now be proper for her to be tendered a matrimonial offer by some football champion.
The November "Smart Set"
His Grace the Duke of Argyil (brother-in-law of Edward vn.) contributes to the November number of The Smart Set a long poem entitled "The Three Little Africanders which is delightfully homorous. The ventures of royality into literature are always interesting, and this contribution by His Grace will be read by everyone. The Countess of Winchelsea is also represented in this issue by a short poem of distinct-merit.
{'The
Game and the Candle,"
by a new writer of great promise, Francis Davidge, is the novelette which opens the November number. It presents a fine picture of modern New York society, and the plot, hinging upon the marriage of a young man of wealth and sta tion to a girl almost wholly lacking in culture, is engrossing. The author's pen is delightfully epigrammatic and satirical, and she knows thoroughly the life of which she writes.
Kate Jordan is one of the best short-story writers in the country To the November Smart Set she contributes what is undoubtedly her finest piece of work, under the alluring title, "Unseen of Men." James Huneker is the author of another striking story of France, called "The Tragic Wall," which is remarkable for its originality of theme and its technique. Eda Kenton's "Charlotte" is powerfully psychologic, and Ellis Parker Butler, whose name is fast becoming identified with the best American humor, tells a laughable story in "Mrs. Madden's Golden Wedding." Arthur Bartlett Maurice contributes a detective story which is equally as fine as any of the famous Sherlock Holmes tales. It is called "The Harvey Chase Docu ments." Guy Bolton, Pomona Penrin and others also tell interesting stories, and there is one in French, as usual. The essay is from the pen of Douglas Story entitled "The Significance of Small Talk. Verse is scattered through the pages from poets as well known as Ella Wheeler Wilcoxf John Kendrick Bangs, Frank .Dempster Sherman and Th^odosia Garrison/
The November Smart Set is a remarkable gathering of, the literary brains of t«vo continents.

Rev. W. N. Fletcher, who has been pastor of the Trinity Methodist Episcopal church at Indianapolis, has been transferred to Liberty, Ind. He is the father of Ward and Marvin Fletcher of this city and was formerly pastor of the M. E. church at Carthage. The following is from the Indianapolis News: "A farewell reception was given at Trinity M. E. church last night to the retiring pastor the Rev. W. N. Fletcher, and his wife, who leave soon for Liberty, Ind., where the Rev. Mr. Fletcher was assigned by the conference. A committee composed of Dr. Alexander, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Hisey and Mr. Bornkatnp had last night's re ception in charge. Dr. Alexander made an address, which was followed by the reading by Mrs. Thompson of the News' account of the indignation meetings growing out of a mistake regarding the action of the recent conference. Mrs. Alexander, on behalf of the Ladies Aid Society, presented a quilt to Mrs. Fletcher and Mr. Hisey presented the Rev. Mr. Fletcher with a polished oak upholstered chair on behalf of the members of the church, who expressed their appreciation of the excellent work done by the retiring pastor and his wife."

[Original.]
Bob Riiigland had got into bed and was dozing off wUen there was a sharp stroke on the town bell. He listened and counted two strokes, then a pause, then five strokes more. Being familiar with the tire alarm code, Bob knew that district 2o included the home of Deacon Chase, and as there were but half a dozen houses in the district the deacon's might be the one for which the alarm was sounded.
Now, Bob's relations with Deacon Chase were somewhat strained. Bob was in love with Ida, the deacon's daughter, and, being wild, he was not an acceptable suitor. He was a bright fellow^and only needed to settle down to take a good stand in tlie world. But ,the deacon was not assured that lie would ever settle down and was not to be blamed for being unwilling to commit liis daughter to so graceless r. scamp. Bob had that very afternoon been forbidden tlie house.
Be this as it may. the young man threw off the bedclothes and, throwing on his body-clothes, sallied forth to tlie fire. He had not gone far before he discovered that, true enough, the deacon's house was burning. Fearful that Ida might be in danger, he ran till he came to the house and was reassured at seeing her in the front yard with tlie others. But just as he was about to enter the gate he heard her exclaim, "My necklace!" And she dashed in at the front door before any one could stop her.
The necklace was of coral and not intrinsically valuable. Bob had given it to her, and when he saw her run into almost certain death to save it his love flamed like the burning building. He dashed in after her.
The crowd without stopped passing water and looked on appalled. The whole of the house above the second story was burning, and the two had no sooner had time to mount the stairs than the roof over the front fell. That was the last seen by the crowd of Bob and Ida, and no one doubted that they had perished.
The house faced west, and the wind was from the same quarter. Behind, not more than a hundred yards from the back door, ran the river. Ida, too much excited to heed the smoke that stood in her way, dashed for her room at the rear, grasped her necklace on the bureau and, turning, saw Bob. Without a word he drew her to the front staircase, but found it roaring with flame. There were no rear stairs, so he took Ida to a window. The smoke was so thick that he could not see the ground, but, going back to Ida's bedroom, he took off the blankets from the bed and tying one of them around her made a rope of the rest and let her to the ground. Then, tying the end of his rope to a bed slat and putting it crosswise against the window, he let himself down.
Where they stood sheltered by the lower part of the building they were momentarily safe, the smoke and cinders forming a semicircle about them above the ground. But Bob knew they could not remain there long, so, bundling Ida in the blanket to keep her clothes from igniting, he took her up in his arms and ran with her toward the river, intending to escape the heat, smoke and cinders by getting into the water. But 011 reaching the bank he found a skiff. Without stopping to look for oars he put his burden in, unloosed the painter, shoved off and jumped in himself.
The current soon carried them beyond danger. The boat was seen from the shore, but no one dreamed that those in it were the lost ones. The lovers were obliged to drift with the current, not having anything with which even to guide the boat.
Tlie first proposition was to gain the shore as soon as possible, find a parson and be married, but Ida could not bring herself to marry without her father's consent, and Bob shrank from what seemed to him to be taking an advantage of both father and daughter. It was near morning when they passed through some reeds, and Bob, catching hold of them, succeeded in drawing the boat to shore.
Supposing that they had been seen in their-escape, they did not hurry to return, stopping at a farmhouse for breakfast. After breakfast the farmer harnessed his horses alid drove them home. As they approached, a gang of men were at work on the debris of/the burned building hunting for their corpses, while Deacon Chase stoofl ruefully by looking on. Ilis back was ttrrned to the road and he did not s?e the party coming. Ida, who did not know of the melancholy ^unt they were^ngaged in, sang out: A,• "Father, I saved my necklace'"
The deacon turned, saw his daughter tottered, gathered his faculties, Ida gave a bound and the two were locked In each other's arms.
After a brief explanation the deacon got into the wagon, pressing Bob's hand as he did so, and they were driven to the temporary abode of the family, where a similar surprise was in store for the mother and sisters. Then, when it was all over, Bob, with assumed modesty, withdrawing, said: "I beg your pardon, deacoh. I have no right here, according to your 01 ders, ancl I must apologize for trcs passing. Ida, I congratulate you 011 recovering your necklace."
Now, this was Bob's way-of "rubbing it in" on the deacon, and every one present-'smiled. The deacon hung his headi for moment, then, cocking, one eye up at Bob, said: "I reckon, Bob, since "I was looking for a charred body and you brought in a live, girl, the 'find' is yours."
Bob settled down- and made a good hnfband., HARRIEt CAWLEY.
