Mr.. Limerick, saying quietly in Span
ish: Il wish a word with you. This
woman states that you know something
regarding the disappearance of Mr..
Huntly, the Englishman who was stay
ing at the Hotel Victoria"
Certainly l do" replied Mr.. Emer-
lex. Il have just received a letter
from him bearing the San Nicholas
postmark. He is about to take a trip
into the interior and will not be back,
probably, for several weeks"
AS he uttered these words he drew
the letter from his pocket, and offered
it for inspection. Several of the by
ISLANDERS looked at it, but as none OF
them knew the supposed Mr.. Huntly's
handwriting, none could dispute the
commences of the letter coming from
him.

Two Singular Showers.

On Saturday. November J 1. 1882, there
was a shower of peculiar-shaped seeds
over an area of several square miles In
the vicinity of Statesburg. ). {. The
shower began about 11:30 a. m, and
was noted for twelve miles in one d1rec-
ton and about seven and a half miles III
the other. In the enter of the district
over which they fell the ground was al
most covered: the noise made by them
as they fell on the leaves much resem-
bling that made by fine sleet- When
examined under the microscope these

liked it was a fair, Stand-up fight, no
matter what the weapons were. 1t
would never do for him to meet Percy
Lowell and he knew it, so his only course
was to settle with the Spaniard and run
the chances of his finishing the work.
After moments reflection he went to a
safe in the corner carefully counted out
the amount and handed it over.
You have saved yourself a great deal
of trouble" was the Spaniard's remark
as he pocketed the wealth.
The vigilantes are making inquiries
regarding the missing man. The hotel
keeper has reported the case, and if it
should be learned that he spent the
night at your house some very unpleas-
ant inquiries may be made. Besides,
am not sure about Miguel Castillo; he
may turn traitor after all. He and the
Englishman were on very friendly
terms to judge from the looks which
they gave each other
While these words were being ut
tered Mr.. Emerick's face was livid. he
clinched his fists and betrayed an in
tenSely excited state of mind.

there will be nothing for me to fear"
said Mr.. limerick
You may rely upon my doing it,
was the answer. Saying which the
Spaniard rose to leave, and two minutes
later he was on the street
About half an hour had elapsed since
the Spaniard's departure. Mr.. limerick
was plodding away industriously at his
desk, and one by one was disposing of
the numerous papers piled before him.

mind to accomplish that night But

enter the carriage after leaving the
concert hall. She was taken aback, such

Then hasty conversation e1sued, ana
arrangements in regard to their depart
ure were discussed.
Soon afterwards Mr.. limerick locked
his desk and they left the building to-
gother. After taking Belle Lorimer
home in carriage, Mr.. limerick went
to his club, wrote letter and seemed
very anxious to post it that night, for
he walked over to the post-office and
put it in the letter-box himself 1t

town about one hundred miles up the
river.
On the afternoon of the third day
after Belle Lorimer's interview with
Mr.. limerick, the Spaniard, Miguel
Castillo, came to her rooms and excited

had been taken aboard the Montevideo
boat and he was going himself to that
port at once. Not moment was to be

herself to accompany the informer, say

way down they had called for the cap

Taxation in Germany.

The latest improvement in legislation
proposed by the Emperor William II.
of Germany is in the line Of taxation.
He proposes to remit part lr all of
the income tax in the ease of men whose
incomes are less than $3.50 a year,
the remission being in proportion 10 the
number of children such men have; so
that man who has five or six childr en-
is to pay no income tax at all. But as
Germany is not troubled with surplus
in the treasury, the Emperor proposes
to increase the income tax in the case
of those whose incomes are more than
$3.50 year. 1t is not necessary to say
that this latter part of the proposition
is meeting with vigorous opposition. It
would. indeed, be most unheard OF
thing if an income tax really were made
to bear heavily on the rich. There is
said to be a chance that the Emperor
will dissolve Parliament and appeal 80
the country on this issue, in case hin
views are not legis1ated into effect.
Emperor William has evidently got
clear and correct ideas on one import
ant phase of the taxation problem. He
thinks children are a good thing, and
he therefore proposes to SO regulate tax
alton as to encourage the increase OF
population. Now, when the Emperor
sees that wealth is a good thing, we
may expect to see him regulate taxa
ton SO as to encourage the increase OF
wealth, which means, of course, that

lean wage-worker is only one dollar a

Chinaman, is never i'll. INDUCES in no
holidays, and works 313 days in the
year for 100 years. he can accumulate

a millionaire he would have to live, and
toll, and econouaize in the same way for
1,500 years. Is not the outlook gloli
Gus?
But perhaps Mr.. Depew, in character
izing the condition of the American
people" did not really refer to the mass
es. He must have had in mind only a
select few superb souls like Gould,
whose income is $1,000 day; Wander
bilt, whose daily revenue is $4,000;
Rockefeller, whose personal receipts are
$4,000 day; Aston, whose earnings"
are S23, 600 day. And very likely he
also included the twenty-four United
States Senators whose wealth aggre-
gates S153, 00G, 900; and few other mon
eyed aristocrats who, in becoming i'm
mensely rich, have compelled thousands
to become wretchedly poor. Men who,
taking advantage of bad social sys-
TEN, have trampled on hum an rights,
subsidized the press, corrupted the
courts, put justice in irons and crowded
industry to the wall. Yes, I see! The
condition of those men is Superb
viewed without reference to the great
hereafter. But they are not the Amer
lean people," Mr.. Depew, and you know
it. And when you told your European
cronies that the people of this country
were in a superb condition" you were
either ignorant of the facts OF you de-
Hberately lied. Such talk is a cruel
mockery, for which you ought to hide
your face in shame.
In conclusion l would add this pre-
1iction: There must be change for
the better in your social system, and
that soon. We all hope the change may
come through peaceful methods; but
come it must.-Ralph E. Hoyt.

The favorite mode of torment seems to

clad in dress suit, which was made
part of the command. Rubber boots,
an ulster and fur cap are frequently
ordered on victim in the hottest days

Or, a Worldwide Chase.
A STORY OF RETRIBUTION.
By "WABASH."
lCoPYRIGHT, 1901
CHAPTER XII.


Preparations for his departure kept
Mr.. Limerick at his office all day and
far into the night for the next few days.
He had decided to sell out his business
entirely and was disposing of his stock
of goods both in the warehouse and in
transit for any amount which they
would realize. He appeared to be in a
state of intense excitement which was
rather unnatural for him, as he usually
maintained an exceedingly quiet de-
meanor. But the occurrences of the past
few days had apparently unnerved him
His anxiety to get away was undis-
guised and at times he had good cause
to fear that his desires would not be ac-
complished. DiSposing of the stock
was an easy matter, but many OF the
outstanding bills due the firm were
difficult to settle in 4 satisfactory man
ner, and many had to be relinquished
altogether.
One night as he sat at his desk, very
late, he heard knock on the door and
upon opening it was confronted by the
tall, swarthy Spaniaru who had hired
the men to make away with Percy Lowell.
limerick locked the door after admitting
his visitor, then turning to him with an
evil look in his eye, said in Spanish,
which language they always used in
conversing with each other: What
does this late call mean?'
II want this dirty business settled, "
replied the Spaniard in any thing but a
pleasant tone; thereupon heated con-
yersation ensued.
"What did you do with the English
man?"
He is sixty miles up the country
safely guarded by some trusty friends
of mine
But your agreement was that his
body should float out on the next tide
The easy manner in which these words
came from Mr.. limerick would have
made an ordinary listeners blood run
cold, but the Spaniard sat stolid and I'M
moved. He evidently understood the
extraordinary nature of the merchant
and with no more excited exclamation
than Ugh" he said: Il changed my
mind"
Changed you mind! For what rea-
son?"
well, l thought it would be best to
have full settlement with you before l
had the curly-haired Englishman' s
blood on my hands"
And that. l presume, is the purpose
of this visit?''
Nothing more" said the Spaniard.
This seemed to irritate the merchant
and he spoke sharply: Pray, what proof
am l to have that you will carry out
your contract if pay you?"
My word of honor as gentleman
and soldier"
Your hon0rl \ man whose hands
are as deeply dyed in blood as yours can
not know much of honor"
Il have sufficient left to stand my
ground and fight fair when occasion de-
mands it," was the retaliatory response
which Mr.. limerick heard as he met the
Spaniard's whitening gaze.
- shall refuse to pay you until
know positively that this Mr.. Huntly
as he calls himself is dead" was Mr..
Emerick's reply.
Then the prisoner will be set free at
once and take the first boat back to this
CITY,
LET him come" said Mr.. limerick,
dcfiantly.
you will have to fight him if he
does said the Spaniard, in sneering
tone. Now, if there was any thing
