When, toward twilight, Ruth put on her
scarlet shawl and hood, protesting that
"she must go home" the deacon rose up to
escort her.
''Sit down, Joe" he said, waving his hand
authoritatively. Take your seat again,
Jared. You're nothin' but boys. I'm the
proper one to see Miss Skinner safe humv'
T-I would rather go alone, sir !" falter-
ed Ruth.
But the deacon tucked her arm protect
ingly beneath the sleeve OF his shaggy, but
ternut-colored greatcoat, and they set feOrh
together.
Ruth, my dear" said the deacon, break
ing silence that was beginning to be en-
barrassing, after they had walked little
way beneath the ereaking boughs Of the
snow-fringed hemlocks-
''Sir," huttered, Ruth, softly.
It seemed very pleasant 10 have you to
our house to-day, among them rough cubs
O. bows"
".Ioe isn't a rough cub, please sir" said
Ruth, Plucklng up msmsntary spirit, and
feeling herself color like pink crezIn-candy-
wall, !" SAID the deacon, somewhat sur
prised at this une xpected partIsanship, 81
dunno but Joe's the best of the lot but
that's neither here nor there. j Was going
to ask you how you would like 10 stay there
for good and all
II don't understand you, sirI" said Ruth,
stopping short in the midst OF the snow and
darkness.
''To come there and liye-to be nv wife
Mrs. Carey the secondi" exclaimed the
deacon, beginning to feel unco nfortably
warm about the regions of the nose and
eheek-bOnes. Don't you understand now,
Ruth ?"
ooh, sir" uttered Ruth, Withdrawing
her arm, and trembling all over, 81 can
notI'
ooh, yes, YOU can," said the deacon, be-
niguly, 81 know you're young and mex
perienced, bat Pm willin' 10 overlook all
that and"
'But, sir" interrupted Ruth, scarcely
knowing whether TO laugh or cry, "I-PYs
promised 10 marry Joe" :"
And breaking away from her escort, Ruth
ran away, through the binding snow and
slert, toward the far-of rcd light OF the
Skinner farmhouse.
Deacon Obcd Carey walked silently back
chewing the end of his own meditations;
and from that moment to this he has never
once alluded TO his matrimonial aspirations
and their untmely blight But the next
Thanksgiving Day he ate his turkey at the
hospitable board of son and daushter-in-
law, with little cherry-checked grandchild
tied in u high-chair close 10 his elbow.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by Mr.. Williamson Dunn, Gen

"Mr. Emmons Blaine, General

presume that some Of our enterpris-

very glad to send him a supply.
These photographs will be framed and
hung up in the new passenger depot
in Chicago, and will of course be in
sstrumental in advertising very effec-
lively the section OF country which
they represent"
Mr.. Dunn requests that any real
estate men or others who wish to ad-
vertise their enterprises will send to
him photographs, which will be for
warded by Wells, Fargo 4 Co.'s ex-
press to Mr.. Emmon's Blaine, and
will be placed in a conspicuous posi-
tion in the Union depo0k Chicago.
This depot is one of the finest in the
country, and no better mode could be
devised for advertising this section in
the very locality where the adver
tisements will be seen by the largest
number of people.

GOOD WORK
Of Deputy sheriff Poyorena at
Los NietOs.

OF Deputy sheriff Poyorcna at
Los Niet0s.
E. A. Poyorena, Deputy Sheriff and
Constable OF Los Nietos township,
did fine piece of detective work and
promptly secured his man the other
day, in the case of s. W. Robinson,
charged with being accessory to the
Cox shooting affair. The case against
Robinson was set for examination
before the Justice of the Peace at
Norwalk last Tuesday, but when the
hour arrived the defendant was non
est inrentus. Mr.. Poyorena immedia' ely
made use Of the telegraphic wires. de-
tected the train upon which his man
had "set sail" from Los Angeles,
caused his arrest at Merced, and i'm
mediately started after him, return
ing with his prisoner to Nor
walk on the Friday morning
trail greatly to the relief of the
sureties on the bail bond of the fugi-
tive. Poyorena is we'll known as one
Of the most efficient executive officers
in the county, but he is universally
too modest to claim newspaper pub
licity. It was he who captured and
brought from Lower California the
ravisher, McCauley, although the
merit of the capture was claimed by a
brother officer who would not be able
to save himself, much less capture
any body, in that portion OF Mexico
where the population is almost uni
sally unfriendly to citizens Of the
United States. Los NIEros.

China and Japan.

Colonel Sanford delivered his lee
ture, "China and Japan" to a fair
sized audience at Armory Hall last
night. Many Of the best people of
the city were present and gave the
closest attention to the lecture. Col
onel Sanford is a natural orator, a
quiet, dignified speaker, who, by the
exercise OF heaven-bestowed power,
plays upon the feelings OF his audit
ors as skillful musician plays upon
his favorite instrument. He has an
easy conversational style, the grace
and quietness of which are captivat-
ing. After hearing him speak five
minutes one feels perfectly at home
with him. The listner goes with him
to dozens of places of interest in
China and Japan, and listens atten-
lively to the clear and beautiful de-
scriptions OF all OF them. He talks to
his auditors as one friend to another,
there being not the slightest con-
straint in his manner. Frequent,
though often unexpected, sallies Of
bright humor rendered his lecture de-
cidedly entertaining.

The statement About the Santa
- Fc COnlradictcd.
A statement has been made by the
Northern and Eastern press that 8, 800
delayed freight cars are strung out on
the Atchison system in Southern
California, principally at Los Angeles
and San Diego. Mr.. Williamson
Dunn, speaking Of this yesterday, re-
marked: "You can safely say that
this announcement is quite untrue.
Our lines are clear, anG there is not
even the faintest indication Of q
blockade. Our yards here are worked
up to date, and no goods of any de-
scription are delayed in handling,
and this is best proven by the fact
that we have no complaints coming
in. The motive stock in our possess
sion enables us to handle everything
offered, and shippers need not fear
any delay from the reasons alluded to
in your clipping"

TRAIN THIEVES AGAIN.
A Passenger Train Held UP on
the Sonora Road.

The n n,rth-bound passenger train on
the Sonora Railroad, which runs from
.Guaymas to Benson on the Southern
Pacific, was attacked by train robbers
on Friday night. The scene of the
robbery was at Aqua Zarca, a small
station fifteen miles south of Nogales.
Six men attacked the train by opening
fire with Winchester rifles, instantly
killing the engineer and mortally
wounding the fireman. Wells -Fargo's
Express Messenger Hays was or
dered to give up his keys, but resisted
desperately. He was badly wounded
in the head and face, and it is ex-
pected that his injuries will prove
fatal. The thieves, foiled in their at
temut to open the safe, carried it off
bodily, but the amount within it can
not at present be ascertained, as Mes
eenger Hays is unable to make any
statement.
Mr.. Pridham, the representative OF
Wells, Fargo in this city, was seen
yesterday afternoon by q HERALD re-
porter and questioned regarding the
amount of probable loss to his COM
pany. He said II am unable to
give any estimate at all, though am
of opinion that there was not very,
much in the safe, as all our heavy
bullion shipments from that part Of
the country are made by boat from
Guaymas. Then again we do not
handle very much money in this direc-
tion over that division, and am
not aware of any special shipments
being made. | am unable to furnish
you with any particulars OF the affair,
as all the information we have of it is
telegram from the front stating the
bare facts OF the case"
Johnny Thacker, Wells Fargo's cel-
ebrated detective has been notified to
proceed at once to the scene and will
be joined by Special Officer r. II.
Paul, OF the Southern Pacific and Nick
Pierce Of Chihuahua. A posse Of citi-
zens Is already in pursuit, but the
chase is expected to prove hard one,
as the thieves are undoubtedly natives
and acquainted with every inch Of the
country.
