half games out OF the five. and he has Joined
Steintz. who In the time has won three and
a half games, in of twelve each-the two
masters being almost certain OF fourth and fifth
prizes What makes the position more interesting
is that while In OF the two remaining rounds
Tarrasch has the move against Vergani and Wal
brodt against SteintZ, in the other round Stenitz
has the move against Tarrasch
AS to the others, with any chance for sixth and
seventh prizes. Walbrodt Schlechter and Techmann
have each ten wins. Bardeleben and Schiller nine

themselves
Wabrodt has to play Steinitz and Schirers.
Schechter has 10 play Tsohigorin and Mason.
Teichmann has TO play Mason and Bardeleben
Schfers has to play Walbrodt and Pollock. and
Bardeieben has TO play Teichmann and Marco. II
would seem, therefore II the adjourned game be-
tween Schffers and Bardeeben Is drawn, that the
latter has the best chance for sixth prize.

later. He heard only the rapid coming
of horses hoofs, and despite the fact
that horses were things the mountain
Apaches never thought of using except
when hungry, Private Hanrahan be-
lieved all the Tonto tribe were coming
and let drive accordingly. 1t was only

Corporal Dunn could reach them on the

Fosters courier from Ration Springs
but where were the dispatches? Where,
alas, was jim? Tralees heaving 1anks
and distended nostrils and eyeballs told
his story of peril and homeward flight,
even as the long welt in his broad
haunch and the cash through the high
pommel of the Mcclellan tree were clo-
quent of its cause. Like Ruckel, the
sentry, poor Rafferty,, homeward speed
ing with his captains midnight dis
patch, had been ambushed at the road
side.

consultations shimmering over the So
corro and the dim, vague, shadowy low
land stretching away from the slope at
his very feet. Already big Stromberg,
had begun to repeat his call in Teuton-,
ic observance of the order that if the.
next sentry failed to pass it it should
be repeated once. Already Number Six,
far around at the corral, had lifted up
shout for the corporal, convinced that
something must be wrong with Five,
But the corporal was in rapid rush for
the scene. He never pulled up as he
passed the major, but hastened on
down the bluff. Thornton paused at
the brink.
"Where are you, Tive? What's the
matter?" he heard the corporal's eager
hail in the darkness. No answer.
"Where are you, Ruckel? VIII"
Then stumble-a stifed exclamation
the sound of'something like a carbine
falling on the sandy ground, and then
along the bluff trot, trot, trot, trot, trot,
double time, the rapid coming Of the
sergeant with the patrol and lantern.
"This way, sergeant" cried the ma
jor, as he led on down the slope.
"Come here with that light, for Gods
sake" rang the voice of the corporal.
And fifty yards further they found him
bending over an inanimate and bleed
ing form-that of Ruckel, the young
Bavarian trooper, pierced through with
Tonto arrows.

brought his rife down to the charge
and went leaping like colt along his
post to the point where it was crossed
by the Prescott road, and instead Of
the prolonged and nelodious call of the
hour, when 1t came his turn, it was the
sentry's challenge-sharp, clear and
imperative-that split the morning air
There was something nerve tingling,
something that smacked of swift COM
ing alarm in the very tone, and its only
answer at the front was the quick, ris-
ing thud of galloping horses hoofs.
Again rang the challenge-all three
words jumbling this time into one

But the only answer was the loud
bang Of the Springfield and the leaden
bullet went whistling away toward the
pole star. That sentry had heard
enough of the perils of post No. for
one night, and preferred to take no
chances. "Sure, l didn't hear the cap

The Unique Exhibit of a Jamaica Fruit
CnrnnnnY

The Unique Exhibit of a Jamaica Fruit
y Company.
A large fruit company Of Palermo,
Jamaica, recently made one of the odd
est exhibits imaginable. 1t was moth
ing more nor less than perfect minia-
ture church of oranges, an exact model
in every particular of the Church of
st. Francis, the oldest Catholic edifce
in the valley. In carrying out the de-
tails of this unique design, says our in
formant, model of old st. Francis was
made of boards, the size being one
seventh that of the original. Workmen
from the inside worked several days
in driving rows Of spikes through the
boards. When this was finished the
pigmy church looked like some mon
strous freak of the porcupine tribe,
closely covered with bristling iron
points from foundation to the apex of
the well-proportioned spire. Every
orange grower in the valley contrib
uted from peck to five bushels of
oranges. These were carefully sized
and slipped over the nail points, and in
very short time the uusightly struc-
ture became a small but beautiful
church of golden yellow oranges, not
nail or section of framework being vis-
ibie. Every morning during the ten
days of festivities which followed, the
oranges of the day before were replaced
by fresh ones. 1t is estimated that up
wards of two thousand bushels of fruit
were used for this purpose. This ap-
pears to be great waste of oranges,
but the exhibitors are of the opinion
the advertising will repay the loss sew

the young sentry on Number Five had
passed the call. Entitled to his relief
Immediately after two thirty and al

o'clock in the morning?" He wished he
had sent a sergeant and ten men back
with him, for, if Apaches really were
in the Sandy valley, Crane might need
,reinforcements, anyhow, only he hated
to ''rout out" men and horses in that
heathenish way long after midnight.
If anything should go wrong with
Leon, how his old friend Cullen would
blame him. He looked at his watch
only little after two-a whole hour to
wait before he could hear of the boys
fereturn, but surely something should
be heard from Foster. 1t couldn't
take his couriers two hours to ride
back in the night from Ration Springs.
Lighting his pipe, the major once
more went out into the still night air.
Over at the guardhouse the lights
burned dimly and he could see tho
shadowy forms Of the sentry on No.
SLOWLY pacing his post. Stepping out
upon the parade, he noted that only in
lone or two of the windows were the
night lights still burning. Earlier in
the night signal fires could be seen far
over the southeast in the Sierra Ancha,
but they had dwindled away. Every
thing about the garrison seemed to
speak of calm and security, yet, along
the porticos of the opposite barracks
iand in their hunks within, hundred
,stalwart men lay browsing with their
arms close at hand. Many of them had
not even kicked off their boots Mum
Der 1-half-past two o'clock" rang the
,call of the sentry at the guard house.
Then No. 2 took it up over at the south
west, adding in checry, resonant tone,

west front-one of the sentries warned
to watch for Icons signal-came next,

gone out at half-past twelve, and as big
sStromberg's resonant below went
echoing away to the Socorro, there was
an audible litter and laughing imita-

sternly, the sergeants voice ordered:
