LAST week we spoke of the great
mistake of electing II. S. Montgom-
cry chairman of the Republican
County Central Committee. We
now have proof that but six persons
besides Montgomery himself were
present at the time he claims to have
been elected. The meeting was held
in the Office of County Attorney
Shearer, and under Montgomery's
manipulation the election of himself
as chairman was rushed through be-
fore other members of the COMMITTEES
could get there. Committeeman s.
Newton and N. J. Chapman were on
posed to such hasty action but the
plan was carried out, and a quick adj
Journment was secured. Now there
are twenty-five members of the
County Central Committee and for
eighteen of them to be disfranchised
Dy four IS unjust and altogether IN
republican. We are informed that
montgomery received but four votes
out OF the seven cast, and on this
vote was declared elected chairman.
since the above was written it IS stat
eo TO US by a person present that
montgomery was not elected perman-
ent chairman Of the committee. He
was only chosen TEMPORARY CHAIR
NAN OF that meeting Of seven mem
Oers OF the Committee, and that no
vote was taken for a permanent
Chairman hence the committee is at
me present time without a perman-
ent Chairman.
As the matter stand there has really
Oeen no chairman legally elected.

ined, the tie between them was much
closer than is usual even in the case OF
father and daughter. So deeply did she
mourn that began to fear for the eff

only ones to grieve; all the natives on
the settlement called Mr.. Carson ia

CHAPTER XI.

Iwonder if many married couples are
quite as happy as we found ourselves
Cynics, q growing class, declare that few
illusions can survive honeymoon.
Well, 7 do not know about it, for I only
married once, and can but speak from
NV limited experience. But certainly
our illusion, or rather the great truth
of which it is the shadow, did survive,
as to this day it survives in my heart
across all the years Of utter separation,
and across the unanswerable gulf of
doom.
But complete happiness is not allowed
in this world, even for an hour. AS our
marriage day had been Swallowed by the
scene which has been described, SO our
married life was Swallowed by it's own
sorrow.
Three days after our wedding Mr.. Car
son had a stroke. It had been long i'm
pending, now it fell We came into the
center hut to dinner and found him ~
ing speechless on the couch. At first
thought that he was dying, but this was
not SO. On the contrary, within foAr
DAYS he recovered his speech and some
power Of movement. But be never re-
covered his memory, though he still
knew Stella, and some times myself
Curiously enough he remembered little
Tots the best Of all three, though occa-
| sionally he thought that she was his
own daughter in her childhood, and
would ask her where her mother was.
This state of affairs lasted for some
seven months. The old man gradually
grew weaker, but he did not die. OF
course his condition quite precluded the
idea Of our leaving Babyan kraal till all
! was over. This was the more distress
/ ing to me, because had a nervous pre-
sentiment that Stella was mourning
danger by staying there, and also be-
cause the state of her health rendered
it desirable that we should reach a civ
| ilized region as soon as possible. How
ever, it could not be helped.
AT length the end came very suddenly.
We were sitting one evening by M. Car
sons bedside in his hut, when to our as
|. tonish he sat up and spoke IA "a Z :
