THAT is like to be true, if | live" he
answered, "for the bono of my temple

Now NADIA ceased speaking and for a
long while was silent. Umalopopaos
was also silent. Alas! he who had done
many deeds, he might not save her now:
he could scarcely hold himself against
the rock. lie thought Of it and the tears
flowed down his face and fell onto the
hand of tho Lily. She felt them fail
and spoke:
"Weep not, my husband" she said
~ have been all too i'll a vito TO YOU
Weep not for me, yet remember that |
loved you we'll" And again sho was
silent for long space. Then she spoke
for the last time of all, and her voice
came in a little gushing whisper through
the hole in the rock:
Farewell, Umslopogaas, my husband
and my brother; | thank you for your
love. ALI, | dien
Now Umslopogaas could mako no an
swcr, only he watched the little hand ho
held. Twice it opened, twice it closed
upon his own, then it opened for the
third time, turned gray, quivercd and
was still forever. Now it was at the
hour Of dawn that NADIA died,

nicely, saying: I'VE have served you
well; we have fought for Won and so or
dercd things that victory is yours. Now
grant us this requcst-that We NAV fol
low Dingaan, who has fled into hiding,
and Stay him wherever we find him. for
he has worked us wrong and wo would
avenge it,"
Then the white captain and Pandn
smiled and said: "Go, children, and
prosper in your search. No ono thing
shall please us more than TO know that
bingham is dead" And they gave us
men to go with us.
Then we hunted him week by week,
as men hunt wounded buffalo. We
lay hid in the bush watching. At last
our chance came. Dingaan walked in
the bush, and with him two men only
We Slow the men and seized him.
Now Dingaan prayed for mercy.
"Mercy? thou hyenaw | answered.
"Thou prayest for mercy who showed
none to any. Give me back my daugh-
ter. Give this man back his wife and
children. Then we will talk of mercy
Come forth. coward, and die the death

So, my father, we dragged him forth
grooming, TO the cleft that IS above in
the breast Of the old Stone Witch that
cleft where Galazi had found the bones.
There we stood waiting for the moment
Of the dawn, that moment when NADIA
had died. Then we cried her name into
his ears and the names of tho children
of Unsloposaas and cast him into the
cleft.
That is the tale Of NADIA the Lily, nv
father, and how we avenged her.

william E,I,s is Brought Back,
oregonian.

Oregonian.
William Ellis has returned from Jun
lper Flat, under the escort of Officer
Turk. He is charged in Justice Bull
locks court with the crime of larceny by
bai zee. He mortgaged team and two
wagons to W. A. Laidlaw and L. Whit
ing for $l95, and one of the stipulations
was that he should not take the property
out of the county. He violated the con-
ditions of the mortgage, it is alleged, by
taking the team and wagons east of the
miles south from The Dalles. Officer
Turk succeeded in getting Ellis and part
of the property here. Ellis was arraigned
yesterday and continuance was asked
until to-day to give time to get witnesses
for the defense. His examination will
take place this forenoon at 10 o'clock.
This is the second trip Turk has made
after Ellis. He purchased a team of
horses from James Humphrey and gave
a mortgage on them and took them east of
the mountains as be did in this last case.
An agreement was made by which he
was not brought down on that charge.
1t Is understood that this agreement has
been broken and that another charge
will be brought against him.
AS he started from Juniper Flat with
his man, Officer Turk met with serious
accident. He was leading the horse his
prisoner was on, when the animal became
frightened and attempted to run. The
rope Turk had hold of caught around the
little finger of his right hand. The
finger was broken in two places and dis
located.

the party, and would incur the just
censure of every Republican in the
country. The views, as expressed by
Senator Cullom, on his return from
Illinois to Washington City, will re-
ceive the endorsement of the party in
all portions of the country. He said:
81 have no idea that the senate will
carry out the plans suggested by the
enthusiastic Democrats of passing the
Springer free-wool bill and the vari-
GUS other piecemeal tariff bills which
are pending before the finance COM
mlttee of the senate. 1t is for the
Democrats to carry out their free
trade plans, and not for the Republi-
cans. So far as l am personally con-
cerned, I want to see them bring for
ward their bill for a revision of the
tariff. They will encounter no dilatory
tactics on our part. I am anxious to
see the bill pass as soon as possible, so
that the country may Judge whether
wages will go up or down under
free-trade policy"

EDITORIAL NOTES.

President Harrison has intimated
that the Monroe doctrine will be en-
forced regarding the Panama canal,
and his position will receive the sup
port of all true Americans. Foreign
ers should not control the politics or
commerce of this continent.
The latest telegrams from the sick
bed of Hon. James G. Blaine contain
the pleasing intelligence that he is i'm
proving. It would be severe blow
on his fellow citizens for this great
statesman to pass away, when, appar-
emily, there are many years of useful
life in store for him.
The storm-cloud which has lowered
over the northwest and spent its fury
IN heavy rains during the past few
days was, according to the opinion of
some weather prophets, caused by the
proximity of the comets. At this
season of the year, comet or no comet,
storms are of usual occurrence.
A young lady of Sprague, WASH, has
just made final proof on 15O acres of
land, located southeast of that city.
She is one of the many girlso IN that
state who have taken up and improved
homesteads, and such women redeem
