our arrival opened the door into small, square
room, where we found a small bed, cracked
looking-gass. but not a sign of wash-basin,
towel water We suggested the missing ar
tiCles aud after moments thought the bright
idea fitted through his head Of our adjourning
TO the yard, where lac would bring water, but
a basin or soap or towel they did not have
there.
Fortunately the Captain had a towel and
we each had soap; using bucket set on
the steps, we each made such ablutons as our
sense of decency permitted US, the hostess
and maid both watching our progress with
mirthlul eyes, not the least disconnected by our
stripping 10 the waist The wash finished, the
cracked mirror was produced, aud we com
pleted our toilets.
BY this time eggs and coffee were ready, and
without waiting for any ceremoniOus laying or
table we soon reduced the supply and then
spent half an hour trying % chew the boiled
fowl which was offered as a finale. Before we
had finished, however, the sound Of the stage
brought us out 10 the door. The driver called
upon us 10 Come on" So paying the land
lady the very reasonable sum OF one real, or
about 20 cents, each. we bundled into the empty
interior and packed ourselves and our sachels
away.
The coach was Of the old style; a huge body
SWING on leather straps, three seats, place
for trunks behind, and two seats beside the
driver. One OF these was already taken by a
PAT, DIRTY PRIEST
in a brown cass0ck and sandals, and MS we sat
in the inside we could sec his bare brown
calves through the little window under the
drivers seat.
We jolted along a dusty road at dog-trot.
The sun poured down until we were nearly
baked, and any scenery, il there was any, was
quite hidden by the clouds Of dust We stopped
at several houses or farms, and finally added 20
our load peasant woman. who mounted beside
the priest Now we had three pairs Of calves
az the window. Which one Of us suggested the
happy idea ! do not remember, but 20 pass
away the time we sharpened straws, and with
sundry pricks caused the pricstand the woman
10 believe that numerous active and blood
/ thirsty heas inhabited the coach. The frantic
dives after the supposed iniruders and the
futile shifting about of legs served 10 while
away several hours which would otherwise
have been unbuarabe.
Finally, after a long, dusty, and hot ride OF
six hours, we reached the city Of Granada, and

came down we proceeded 10 follow the gen.
era example and went out l'y the back door.
Undor a shed the maid was busy lighting
a FIRE in an open fireplace; the hostess was
pucking a fowl. while across the wide yard
the rufan was rubbing down horse. As we
stood gazing out the hostess with quite an air
announced that our breakfast would be soon
cooked. aud asked IL we preferred an omelet or
boiled eggs Considering that we should have
70 cat less dirt IL their shells protected tho
eggs, we unanimously called for hard-boiled
and plenty Of them.
Our inquiries Tor q room, water towels and

and we embarked without looking up our late
hotel friends. The trip through the mountains
being made by daylight, the scenery WAS not AS
terribly wild as when siiyeTed by the moon,
but il was grand enough to satisfy any Que.
Being more familiar with travelling than our
fellow passengers, who were then making their
first railroad ride, we had quito funny time
calming their fears and encouraging them when
we plunged into the darkness of the tunnel.

Leaving the little city Of Malaga at in the
evening we entered secOHd-class compartment

mountain valley which lies south and west
from the city. The darkness Of the evening
was unhroken by lights from any town or sta.
tiOn for nearly two hours. Then, after we had
asCcndcd perhaps 900 feet we caught the first
glimpse OF the rising moon as Il shed lis white
light on the water OF the Mediterranean IN the
eastern horizon. We had gradually been lifted
until tho view of the water was uninterrupted
by any intervening hills and we caught a
Tong downward vista of moonlit valleys, level,
ihiclly-w0oded plains, aud bright, flashing
water, upon which we could plainly discern
distant vessels in all the beauty and poetry OF
swelling sail.
THE VIEW WAS ENHANCING,

darkness. and we watched from the windows of
our car in silence the glorious sight. Butsud-
denly il was cut of and we plunged into the

edge OF a yawning cbasm caught a glimpse OF

istrator of estate of Marion Eastwood, for dis

gagged as q money lender and note broker

for 81 900 with interest at 10 per cen,
on which the estate has entered suit to recover
the alleged loan. He AYERS that he borrowed
in all about $4,000. for which the note was
given; that the first money borrowed was
about S4O0. in 1881. for which and the interest
at 10 per cent he gave his note,
also bearing 10 per cent interest,
and when due the same process, adding prin.
cipal and interest and giving new note, also
bearing interest. was reported. said note run
ming thirty days, and it was verbally agreed
that the interest was 10 per cent per month.
He charges that Of this S17,0 900 not more than
a, 600 was ever received by him and the ex-
cess ia for interest, and he claims that his re-
payments have left less than 81. 1000 due the

OwENBEY ARRESTED.


A Warrant Sworn Out Charging False Pre-
tenses.
Detective Charles W. Mahon Of the Metro
poitan police force was at the Capitol today
awaiting the discharge of Mr.. James A. Owen
hey, the silver pool witness. who has been in
charge of the sergeant at arms of the House.
The officer had warrant for the arrest Of Me-.
Owenbey on q charge of false pretenses.
The amount involved was only eli, but the
ofense charged is one punishable by imprison-
ment in the penitentisry.
Mr.. Theodore L. Page Of the Senate restau-
rant swore out the warrant, alleging that Owen
hey represented to him that he had funds de-
posted to his credit in the Hanover National
Bank Of New York. which Representations i,
is charged were false and fraudulent. The
warrant further charges that by means of said
false pretense the said Owenbey obtained the
sum mentioned.
1t Is alleged that he cashed check for Owen.
bey. The latter was aware that he was being
watched by the detective and this afternoon
his counsel, Mr.. j. J. Johnson. called at police
headquarters to see what arrangements he
could make for giving bail for his clients ap-
pearance In order to avoid the locking up Of his
client.
Under the law, however. bail cannot be given
for appearance in the Police Court and car
only be given upon a waiver OF an examination
Tor the defendants appearance after the grand
jury has investigated.
WAS GOING TO MAKE THE AMOUNT coon.
Owenbey at the time he was arrested was en-
gagged in drawing his fees and mileage. He ex
claimed on the warrant being presented that b.
had intended TO pay the money as soon as ht
obtained his fees from the committee. He re-
fused to say anything for publication in regard
to the matter.
