CHAPTER XIII.

Those were two busy months before
Prudencia's wedding. Twenty girls,
sharply watched and directed by Dona
Trinidad and tho sometime mistress OF
Casa Grande, worked upon the marriage
wardrobe. Prudencia world have no use
for more house linen, but enough fine
linen was made into underclothes TO last
her lifetime. Five keen eyed girls did
nothing but draw the threads for deshi-
lados. and so elaborate was the open
work that the wonder was that the bride
did not have bands and stripes of rheu-
matism.
Others fashioned grapes and fowered
silks and heavy satins into gowns with
long pointed waists and full flowing
skirts, somo with sleeves Of lace and high
to the base of the throat, others cut to
display the plump whiteness OF the own
or. Twelve rebosos were made for her.
Dona Trinidad gave her one of her finest
mantillas; Cholita the white satin en-
broiderol with poppics, for which she
had conceived a capricious dislike. She
also invited Prudencia TO take what she
pleased from her wardrobe. and Pruden-
cia. who was nothing if not practical.
helped herself to three gowns which had
been made for Chonita at great expense
in the City of Mexico, four shawls of
Chinese Grape, roll of pineapple silk
and an American hat.
The house until within two weeks Of
the wedding was full Of visitors-neigh-
bors whose ranches lay ten leagues away
or nearer and the people of the town
all Of them come to offer congratulations,
clatter on the corridor by day and dance
in the sala by night. The court was
never free of prancing horses paving the
ground for eighteen hours at Il time un-
der their heavy saddles. Dona Trini-
dads cooking girls were as thick in the
kitchen as ants on an anthill, for the
good things of Casa Grande were as fa-
nous as its hospitality and not the least
of the attractions TO tho merry visitors.
When we did not dance at home we
danced at the neighbors' or at the pre-
sidio. During the last two weeks, how
ever, every one went home to rest and
prepare for the festivities TO succeed the
wedding, and the old louse was as quiet
as a canyon in the mountains.
Chonita took a lively concern in tn.
preparations at first. but her interest
soon evaporated, and she spent more and
more time in the little library adjoining
her bedroom. She did less reading than
thinking. however. Once she came tc
me and tried for fifteen minutes to draw
from me something in Estenega's dis
praise, and when finally admitted tha
he had fault or two thought she would
scalp me. Still, at this time she was
hardly more than fascinated, interested,
tantalized by IA mind she could appreci.
ate, but not understand. If they had
never met again he would gradually
have moved backward to the horizon OF
her memory, growing dim and DINNER,
hovered in a cloud slnk for a while,
then disappeared into that limbo which
must exist somewhere for discarded i'm.
pressions, and all would have been we'll.

1t was learned that the same spirit

and which caused sheckler to

quarrel when Sheckler shot Barkus, is

will testify regarding the two boys,
Brown and Barlow, who were on the
stand yesterday. The court and counsel
held q consultation. At its conclusion

The boys, Brown aud Barlow, were
outside the court house this afternoon,

by members of the Fall River police

The wanton Dissertation of tho Greatest
Battlefield of tho Rebellion.
WASHINGTON. D. O., June 16.-The
secretary Of war has received q report
from Mr.. Bachelor, of the Gettysburg
Battlefield Commission, setting forth at
great length the wanton destruction of
important landmarks on tho field by
the operations of an electric railroad
company, by which he says the whole
character OF the historic place is being
changed.
ready committed is very great, and can
never be repaired, but the present des-
eoration is but the commencement Of
what may bo done If this company is
allowed to invade other sections OF the
battle field. Is it not practicable to
stop this wanton destruction Of one OF
the most important historical spots in
this country until the government can
decide its duties and its powers. Every
hour the most hagrant depredations
arc committed, and II this is allowed to
be continued while the government is
celebrating the injury will be irrepar-
able"
The report has beon referred to Col.
Lincoln, the acting Judge advocate gen.
eral, for his examination and opinion
as to what authority the war depart
ment has now, or may have after July
/, prox., to prevent or interfere with tho
cutting Of the lines by the railroad
company,
Attention is invited to tho act Of tho
Pennsylvania legislature Of two years
ago giving the government authority to
condemn land, etc., and also to tho gen.
eral authority granted by Congress to
the war department to condemn land
for national cemeteries.
