brigand, without adding another word,
gave him terrible blow under the chin
The cracking of broken teeth was dis
tinctly heard all over the place. "Will
you answer now"'
The soldier lowered his head and let
the blood that filed his mouth flow out.
Then, lifting his eyes to the face OF the
brigand, he stared at him with an ex-
preston of unmoved self possession and
shook his head.
The brigand bit his lips and exchanged
with his companions a malignant smile.
Then he calmly put his hand into his
pocket, took a knife out, unbuttoned
the soldiers shirt and brought the point
of the blade to his throat.
The victim shook convulsively. mo

ran the knife slowly and lightly along
the mans body from the throat to the
waist as he would have done were ne

On the breast of the prisoner appeared
a long, red line, like the cut Of a razor,
that Immediately disappeared under the
drops of blood that ran down like tears
under his clothing to the ground.
"Ah, ahr' cried the chief in brutal
voice. "You begin to see it, eh?"

other sound than the clatter Of his
horses hoofs and the jingling Of his
sword. All of sudden, as he was pass

saw light, and he heard shot. As he
pulled up and grasped his pistol the
horse staggered, and as he stopped to
see if he were wounded he felt himself
caught from behind. AS he turned q

They all turned around to look at
him. The poor young fellow shut his
eyes and kept them closed for awhile.
Then he opened them wide. They were
moist, and be looked far away beyond

smiled
''But the best of it all, % remarked
one, sis that he does not speak. What

The prisoner looked up as though to

The three brigands stood in front OF
him.
Any one who might at that moment
have observed the young man who was
on guard would have seen that he trem-
bled like leaf and turned around so as
to conceal his countenance from the
others, for it was white with terror.
The chief noticed it, and with an i'm

Some Fish Stories,

Salem has some great fishermen, but
newspaper daren't tell on all of them.
When Postmaster Gilbert became
5alem's Nasby about four years ago, the
good.natured driver of the Dallas stage
promised his eminence string of trout
In the near future. He has kept up that
promise 10 good faith ever since and
Monday morning brought In fine mess
Of speckled beauties.
Frank N. Derby took a drive the
other day mot Sunday Of about thirty
miles, beyond Ankeny Sidney now
bottoms, and returned Ia triumph with
trout as long as mis- finger. Frank is
truthful boy, even about fishing. The
best part Of the trip was he got full
pint of choice wild black berries.
Banker Frank Gilbert and Hop
Factor VIM. Brown went fishing out
near Silverton, and returned at mid
night Saturday. They caught no less
than 4 90 beauties.
Capt, Hunts fishing party comprises
two druggists and what they do not
know about using dynamite aud

'HE SANDWICH ISLANDS REPUBLIC.
Preparations Being Made to Com
plete the Job.

VICTORIA, July 11.-Advices from
Honolulu to July 2 contain the follow
ing:
The convention compile ed the third
reading of the constitution Oh the 30th.
! A number of verbal amendments we're
made and the order of several sections
changed. They will meet on the morn
ing of the Sd TO make the final enact
ment. The constitution is to be pro-
mulgated on July Fourth and the
president will take the oath of Office In
front of the executive building. Dole
will then appoint and swear in bis cab
met. The councils will meet on the Sd
and by resolution turn over the govern
ment and all its property to the new
republic of Hawaii.
Admiral Walker went to Waianae on
the 29th with Parker and Widemanp
on steamer provided by the latter,
returning the following evening.
Widemann owns large plantation at
Waianae. The object of the excursion
was said TO be fishing.
An attempt is being made by royal
lists to win over bribes the heads of the
American League and the Schutzen
Club. Tim Murray and H. Klemme
were offered last week 5000 each. The
queen was to proclaim satisfactory
constitution if she might be restored.
Murray and Klemme informed the
government and were instructed to en-
courage the negotiations to the point of
getting some of the money handed
over. This has not yet been done,
although the sum offered has been
doubled. While there has been much
kicking and growing in those associa-
tions, they are thoroughly loyal to the
revolution, and 1t is childish to suppose
they could be turned over by their
leaders to the queen. Billy Cornwell,
late minister of finance, offered the
bribes. Although it is not learned
where the money comes from. he is be-
lieved to have it In hands. Carson Ken
yon is the go-between. The royalists
are greatly agitated and extremity anx.
ious to prevent the establishment of the
republic. AS prominent citizen ex.
pressed it, "They can only bark, but
dare not bite" The government does
not believe that they will make any at
tempt whatever at resistance any more |
than they have done for eighteen |
months past. They will, however,
take no chances. Every precaution
will be used. The constitution contin-
Ies to the advisory council all the pow.
FRS of the legislature until the latter is
elected and meets.
