She put her hand into the breast poke

paper and tied with blue ribbon.

then hemmed the patch down "Ther
wasn't much TO mend after all though
the tear much longer. He caught IL on
nail In the Office. Now, do wonder wha
Is In that packagei"
Eve put tho coat over a chair and took III
the parcel.
tom won't mind" she said. II viii
Just take peep. I'm sure it's for me-"
Then she undid the ribbon. unfolded tn
paper and saw letters.
"Dear Toni He keeps my letters mex
his heart, and he has never told me-"
But the writing was not hers She ga
that at a glance.
"His mothers letters" she said. III
loved his mother so"
Then she began to tremble little for tn
letters did not begin with my dear son.
nor with anything like it, She cast hei
eyes over them. They were love letters
TON had loved some other woman be
fore he met me-" she said, beginning n
cry. "Oh. what shall l do" Then she
cried out, "Oh, foolish creature that am,
or course she died, and he only loves m,
now. 1t was all over before we met, and
must not mind"
But here she paused, gave a scream and
then threw the letter from her as though q
serpent had bitten her. IL was dated IN tn.
previous week. Ii was not four days old.
"Ohi OIL ohp shrieked Eve. "Oh, what
shall dor Oh, where shall gof"
At every cry thought pierced her breast
like stab.
"Tom, my Toni What shall l do, Toni
Toni He to be false-Tomi Oh, l have
gone madl Mol There they arel They are
really there-those lettersi Why do not
diei Do people live through such things
a. these"
Then she knelt down on the door and
gathered up the letters and steadily read
them through. There were 10 of them.
Such love lettersi No other Interpretation
could be put upon them. They were absurd
love letters, such as are always produced In
court In case of q breach of promise. And
they called him "Popsy Wopsy." "Darlins
Parling," "Lovey Dovey," "Own Sweet
ness" and "Apgel of My SOUL" and they
were all signed "Your Own Nellie"
1T Is all true" said poor Eve, wringinR
her hands. "and IL is worse than anything
that have ever heard Of. / trusted him so;
i believed In him so. My Tom-mine."
Then she wiped her eyes. gathered up the
letters, wrapped the silver paper about
them. tied the blue ribbon and put them
back In the awful breast pocket OF that
dreadful overcoat and hung it up in the
hall again.
"Tom shall never know" she said. "I1l
not reproach him. ! will never see him
again. When he comes home, l shall be
dead. will not live to bear this"
She sat down to think over the hest
means of suicide. She could hang herself
to the chandelier with a window blind
cord, but then she would be black in the
face and hideous. She would drown her
self, but then her body would go floating
down the river into the sea, and drowned
people looked even worse than strangled
ones. She was too much afraid of firearms
to shoot herself, even in this strait. She
would take noison- Yes. that would be

A wateshani.

Word reached here Thursday that the east bound passenger train gas heIdup that morning two miles east of Coolidge. \. NJ. From reports re- ceiyed here it seems that the train was signaled to stop, and the brake man got on the train to learn the cause of the stop. when he was met by the muzzles of guns and was ordered to knock on the door of the express car to arouse the messenger. This was done and the express agent opened the door and saw at glance that robbers were on hand and closed the door at once. By this time the conductor be- came anxious to know what was going on aad allghted from the train, when he was met by three men. wno with guns pointed at hi.n demanded q halt, and the halt came The engineer, seeing what was up pulled out, leay- ing the brakeman. conductor and rob bers to settle it. The train waited at Mitchell for the brakeman and con ductor. That was one time the train robbers made water haul. Flag stan Democrat

Money in Prunes.

Tine Tempe News gives dii interest ing account of the prune orchard oi
 MT. Ethelbert Arthur. located some three miles south of that place. lhis orchard is now in it's fourth year and presents striking example Of what can be done in fruit raising when the proper varieties are selected and the proper attention is given to cuitiya- tlon. The prune of Simoni' now rl- pening is worthy of special meniiou. 'rhe trees are heavily laden with the beautiful fruit. each hont probably nay ing over one hundred pounds. The Slmoni is very large prunc with q small pit: is a bright golden color that deepens into rich purplish red as he fruit ripens. It is the highest priced urnnc in tho masket and last winter sold in New York at from twenty to thirty cents per pound. Al the age of seven or eight years the yield is said to be about seven hundred pounds, and judging from Mir. Arthnss trees this estimate is noi too high II is very easy to see the immense profit to be male in raising this fruit for at scyenty-liye trees to the acre. yield of two hundred pounds to tne tree at five cents p,r poand would give an in come of $7j0 pcraerc. The trea comes into profitable bearing tae third ycai
 and increases until the highest stage is reached at the age ot eight years. Mir. Arthur has proved beyoad doubt
 the adaptability of Arizona seil and climate to the raising ot the prnne, and his success should stimulate other fruit grow rs tO profit by his example.

Every con- ductor. brakeman, engineer, fireman, dis pateher, station agent and clerk of the road struck at noon yesterday, leaving the gen. ersl manager on duty. Every train has stopped running for an indefinite period.
 The strike has been threatened for some time. The company owes the employees salaries for March, April and May. It has charter which compels 1t to build a certain number of miles each year: For the last two years 1t the charter and has secured extensions road was placed in the hands of receiver. He had no authority to make payments of salaries, but applied to the Winnipeg courts for permission. That ease has been argued for the last four days, but the end Is not in sight

No pay was forthcoming, and for the first time in the history of any railroad every man in the employment of the company went out.

A State of Siege Declared for Sixty
 Days-Anarehy General.
 VALPARAISO, Aug. 17.-MartiaI law, which was yesterday proclaimed in the city of Buenos Ayres, has been extended to all parts of the republic of Argentina. A state of siege has been declared for 60 days. The National Guard Is to bs mobilixsd and made ready for use whenever armed intervention Ia needed. Many persons were killed and wounded Tuesday night during the fighting in Laplats between the federal troops and the radical revolutionists. An artillery company and troop of cavalry were sent there to aid General Bosch in preserving order. The federal forces now control the entire city of Lsplsta. Notwithstanding the fact that the troops control the city, 1t Is in a state of confusion bordering on anarchy. Murders and robberies are frequent and the military authorities seem unable tS prevent them. In Corientes the situation Is constantly grow ing worse. Citizens have attacked the police and sacked the barracks. The governor has asked the federal authorities for aid. Vslentin Yirssoro, who was made minister of foreign affairs in the reorgan- ized Argentina cabinet, hss resigned. The situation in the city of Buenos Ayres is critical. The latest telegrams from Lsplats say that two thousand rebels have been dissrmed and that General Bosch intends to push the work of disarmament with the greatest possible speed. Argentina revo- lutionists under Caseros have invaded Uru- quay from Corrientes. They were driven back by the Uruguayan troops
