she? The temptation is horribly
strong, and for one instant she waivers.
Then, with quick in-drawing of the
breath, she resolves to save the chit
dren or die in the attempt These
thoughts have swept through her brain
in scnrcely-perceptible space of time.
She rises to her feet, calm and cool and
pale. and her voice is low and tense
when she speaks:
children, sit perfectly still! Don't
move, and you shall not be hurt"
A heavy wadded cloak hangs upon the
wall ut her side, primitive wrap, long
and wide. One of the girls had worn it
to school in a shower and forgotten it.
FANNIE Leslie, glancing quickly round
the room for possible weapon, spies
this cloak. An inspiration comes to
her. Selling it from the nail on which
1T hangs, she opens it out to it's widest
extent, and breathing the words: God
help me now!" springs forward, her lit
tie form striking upon the dogs body
and bearing it to the floor at the same
instant that she deXterously throws the
cloak in such u manner that it envel-
opes completely the head and neck of
the dog. Then her white hands clutch
the muscular throat and press it to the
floor with the strength of despair.
while her knee, bent upon the PROSTATE
body, holds the dog for the time being
harmless prisoner.
But she realizes it cannot be for long.
The dog is stronger than she, and any
moment may shake off her slight
hands. She raises her white face for
an instant, and cries in a voice high
and sharp:
Children. get out Of here, quicklyl
Get out of the windows and hurry for
your livesl"
They do hurry. The room is cleared
as il by magic. Only one little fellow
the oldest boy-hesitates.
Miss Fannie, can't you get away
somehow? don't want to leave you, !"
and he begins to sob.
GO, Dick, go now, while I can hold
him. Oh, go, go!''
And the boy crawls out as though his
heart would break. leaving the school
room deserted save for the girl and the
dog In this unequal struggle, with life
and death in the balance. Oil will
death win? 1t seems SO, for see, the
girls strength is failing, the veins on
the slim hands stand out like cords;
her breath comes in heavy gasps; every
nerve and muscle in her body is
strained to the highest tension. In a
few minutes, ut most, this artificial
strength will fail, and with the thought
goes UP wild prayer for help, and She
still clings with the desperation born
of despair to that heavy throat But
the dogs strength is great; his strug-
giles seem to grow fiercer. Her form is
at last thrown from his body, but with
almost superhuman strength she re-
talns her hold upon his neck She does

STANDS BY HIS COLORS.
Mr.. NeWIands' Maiden Talk i'm the
House.

Mr.. Nswlands made his first
speech in Congress on August 22nd,
1t was regarded by the friends of sill
yer as one of the most logical speech
es on the subject made on the floor
of the House.
In the opening of his remarks Mr..
Newlands clearly defined his political
position. He said:
81 am the sole representative on
this floor of the State of Nevada, a
State which has suffered more than
any other portion of the Union from
the discriminating legislation against
silver. | am also the sole represents
alive on this floor of my party. The
people in Nevada, recognizing the
fact that the platforms of both the
old parties were intended to mean
one thing in the Fast and another
thing in the West, and feeling assur-
ed from the record of the candidates
that the election of either meant
disaster to the cause of bimetallism,
formed an independent organization,
called the Silver party of Nevada.
Their hope was that the contest
bet" een the two old parties would be
a close one, and that the independent
vote Of the silver States, united with
the third-party vote elsewhere,
would hold the balance of power in
the electoral college and would either
secure the election of new candidate
favorable to the silver cause, or Sc
cure from one OF the existing candi-
dates substantial concessions to that
cause, The overwhelming victory of
the Democratic'party in States hither
to Republican rendered that hope
futile; but their expectations we're
realized and are realized to-day, so
far as the party platforms are CON
cerDed; for we find members in this
House constituting these party plat
forms in different ways, according to
the interests of their section, their
locality or their individual views of
the monetary question, without re
gard to party discipline or the unity
of party faith.
