Strategic d'Amoureux.

L'amour rend parfois %ing6nienx, sur
tout quand il est contrari6, ct sill ne
fault qu'un exemple pour lo prouver,
nous allons offrir celui-ci: Thomas
StFgng. qui nest pas nn gareon tres
malin, SO consumait d'amour depuis
longtemps pour une jeune beaut6 de son
comte natal de Sumpter, en- George.
II n'avait pu TOUGHER le ceur do Ia re-
belle, qui lui pr6ferait n sorte de
"dude" qui porte le nom de Stephen
Pephard ct avec lequel ellie s'6tait fan
l1G apres avoir donn6 trois fois capot
a. rsavre Tom. Aussi celui-ci, au
d6sespoir, s'6tait decide a Sc d6faire du
peude bien quill p~oss6dait en- ce monde
pour gutter lie pays ct aller oublier
au loin cette cruelle Sue. Aurait-il
pu y vivre plus longtemps, apres tout,
quand chaque soir il voyait, dams n
savane voisine, son rival SO ppromener
avec la jeune file? Non, la ~jalousie
raurait tue. II cut dependant une in
spiration : parmi ses animaux il await
un jeune taureau qui, sans etre absolu-
ment vicieux, ne voulait voir d'autre
homme que son m%aitre, auquel il ODE
issait CONNIE un CHEN. Dave-c'6tait
lie non du taureau-allait Gtre l'instru-
ment de la vengeance de Tom, 81 toute-
fois il ne devait pas 6tre l'avocat do So
cause bien compromise. LIE soir sui
want, vers l'keure de la promenade DIES
amants, Tom laissa passer Dave dams

dams la plus cruelle impatience. II Wit

quill 6tait a vingt-G nq pas de Dave
sans Favor w, bien que lanimal pho
| chat ferme la terre. Co ne fut qu'au
premier beuglement de Ia bette que
Stephen fut rappel6 d la realite ct son
premier movement fut de vouloir en-
trainer la jeune file du cote de la bar
ri4re, mails Sue 6tait petrii6e par la
frayeur ct he bougeait pas. Stephen,
| voyant Panimal s'6lancer vers lui t&te
basse, ne songea plus qua son salut ct,
poussant I'm cri de frayeur, il laissa Ia
sa belle pour atteindre la barriere. A
ce moment supreme, Tom franchit la
barriere ct vola au secours de la pauvre
Sue, qd'il enveloppa de SEES bras pour
la mieux proteger. Dave en- voyant
SOB maftre, courut vers lui, o
pour lui faire du NAL, ct Tom n'eut
qua tenir une cofhe du docile animal,
don't Fair mechant 6tait des plus from
peurs, pour Sc poser en- heros devant
la jeune file quill adorait. Des que
c~elle-ci fut remise de sa peur, ellie lni
declara que Stephen await fait preuve

Dave 6tait une vache mails trois Sc
maines pins tard il conduisait Sue de-
want un ministre qui les unissait en-

at this capital during the coming year of
representatives of the South and Central
American states, together with those of
Mexico, Hayti and San Domingo, to discuss
sundryimpOrtant monetary and commercial
topics. Excepting in those cases where from
reasons of c0ntiguity of territory and ex-
panse of a border line incapable of being
guarded, reciprocal commercial treat
les may be found expedient, it is believed
that commercial policies, inducing freer
mutual exchange of products, can be most
advantageously arranged by Independent
but cooperative legislation in the mode
last mentioned. The control of our taxa
ton for revenue will be always retained in
our wi hands, unrestricted Unconventional
agreements with other governments.
In conformity. also, with congressional
authority, the maritime powers have been
invited to confer in Washington, in April
next, N the practicability of devising uni
form rules and measures for the greater
security of life and property at sea. A
Der of the powers has already been mani
tested, and if the cooperation of the nations
chiefly interested a be secured, import
ant results are anticipated.
The act of June rs, 1884, and the acts
amendatory thereof, in relation to tonnage
duties, have given rise to extended cores
pondence with foreign nations with whom
we have existing treaties of navigation and
commerce, and have caused wide and re-
gretable divergence of opinion in regard to
the imposition of the duties referred to.
The questions are important and l shall
make them the subject of a special and
more detailed communication at the present
session.

The Insane ASYLUM Farm.

The board of directors of the In
sane Asylum feel commendable
pride in the systematic management
Of that institution and the smooth and
easy workings of its machinery. and
they will soon be justified in boasting
of one of the neatest little farms in
all the Territory connected with it,
Less than two years ago the buildings
were surrounded on all sides by
ubiquitous, sombre looking sagebrush
and the buildings themselves present
ed an uninyiting appearance to the
eye Of passer by; but to-day fifty
acres of the eighty acre farm are in
cultivation and teeming with the lux
uriant growth of vegetables and other
crops which will largely, il not entire
ly, meet the wants.of the institution.
A splendid irrigating ditch has been
dug which furnishes an abundant sup
ply of water for all parts of the farm
that can be reached and which assures
a certainty of crops in the future
The lawn in front of the building is
being well set-Alfalfa and the double
rows of trees on either side of the ar-
enue leading from the mainroad add
much to the beauty of the front view.
The farm now has its own teams. pigs
and milch COWS, and is producing all
the vegetables the institution con-
snmes This state of affairs should
not only be source of pride to the
management but il should bring salts
faction to eyerT citizen of the Terri
tory, and THE News takes special
pride in giving this pleasing informa,
tion 10 the public.
