CHAPTER ".

GwHERE is ENaELoNpE 1ScHcAPE7n
Lord snascapa and Richard Accring-
ton faced each other outside the door.
They were in the wide, lonely garden
beside the house. A broad harvest
moon revealed them to each other dis
tinctly.
The earl stood pale and majestic, his
eye faring. Colonel Accrington was
the fire Of hell.
"You have insulted me in the face of
all Salford-how shall you give me sat
isfaction for all this3" demanded Ac-
crington
"Sir, owe no satisfaction to a-liar,"
returned Inchcape, contemptuously.
The Colonel started at the epithet and
muttered furious curse.
SWherever I find you presuming to
mix with honest men, shall drive you
out In the same way" continued the
earl.
@Wait, my lord" snsrled Ac:rington,
bringing his convulsed face near enough
to mutter in lower tone: "Since you
attack me, accept the struggle In
my return here I had not dreamed of
encountering you'll thought you had
turned monk or something of the sort.
But now-I shall wiring out the last drop
Of your hearts blood before am done
with yoa-on the faith Of Accrington, l
will"
@If you do not rid me Of your contami-
mating presence at once, / shall be
obliged to soil my hands by dealing
AersoSal chastisement upon you-on the
faith Of Inchcape, Will" retorted tbs
earl.
The click Of the door beside him put
stop to the dialogues; Accrington hur.
riel away, reeling at every step, and
vanished among the leafy alleys.
1t was Squire Crecy who had dared to
follow his old friend; he was all abroad,
and understood nothing of what had
transpired Truth to tell, bluff Hal

hunt than in following anything obscure

master of the Fore Hunt) and the sim.
plest-minded, loyal gentleman in all
County Stafford.
He found Inchcape standing like a
statue Of Michael after laVing driven
Satan away.
"Wh-where's the fellow gomez" cried
jolly Crecy, looking about with big round
eyes, "Wasn't that Dick Accrington who
went out with You?"
Inchcape looked at him in silence.
After all, what right had he to act upon
his own private experience Of Accring-
toms character? II he made accusation
against him, what proof could he bring?
None-he could only blazon forth the
fact that stigma was attached to his
own character. and throw open the Bit
ter secret which he had kept so long to

pressive and he longs for the time to
come when he will be able to lookout
of his barracks and see some other
poor recruit pounding sand" on that
terrible parade ground as he has been
doing. &.
But there comes day when he is
told that he is to have horse. He
halls it with delight. He has never
been on horses back in his life, but
he knows all about it, nevertheless.
He will be a veritable centaur when
he gets that horse. He draws his sad
die and horse equipments and is told
how to use them and to care for them,
as well as to groom his horse properly.
That is one Of the things he didn't
think of, but he finds that half an hour

for he has set out to be soldier and
q soldier he will be if his flesh and
bones hold out.
Before he is fairly accustomed to
the use of mis- feet in the stirrups, and
Just when he is beginning to catch
the knack of supporting himself upon
them and relieve that terrible bump
ing, his sabre and carbine are given
him, and he is instructed in their use,
mounted.
That is the last straw. He has no
use of his hands to help balance him
self, and he gets a worse pounding
than ever. But all good times must
have an end, and within few weeks

time, for he has not yet cultivated
that adherence for steamed beef that
will come to him later. He will see
the day when he will hate the sight of
o cow alive or dead, and will not be on
speaking terms with butcher for the
remainder of his natural life. But he
hasn't attained that point yet. He
has On appetite entirely out of proper,
ton to Government rations, and would
eat three times his portion of every
thing if he could get it. The easy
marching and slow drills he has seen
and which he thought were nothing
allied to work are beginning to have

INRpRIATEs ARE LIARS.

One influence it has on the morals which
stands out Lre-eminent. One OF the most
distinctive features OF habilual and periodic
inebrie,y is an utter disregard for truth on
the part of many inebrIates. Females lose
the sense of truth even more completely
thun do males. Seen in the very act of lay
ing down the Just emptied glass. lady pa
tients have coolly and solemnly denied to
me that they had partaken Of the contents.
The perception OF truth seems TO be de-
stroyed w alcoholic indulgence; the con-
sciousness of truth seems lost in the devotee
of Bacchus. Even when temporarily sober
the brain may be so dominated by the alco-
holic obliquily to truth that no reliance can
be placed on any statement made by the man
or woman whose sole being has, as it were,
been stepped in alcohol.-Dr. Norman Kerr.

Young WOman's Hair Turned White.

A Portland young lady received a
few days ago letter from a friend
who appealed for aid in finding some
thing to restore the blackness of her
hair. The friend had suffered almost
unendurably from neuralgia in the
head, and had tried many vaunted
remedies. Finally she was advised to
have her hair shaved or cut extremely
close, and adopted this desperate
measure. The result of the expert
ment has been that with its renewed
growth the hair is appearing per-
fectly white, though it had been
previously very dark, and the wearer
is terribly chagrined at the unex-
pected change. The effect upon the
neuralgia was favorable. Portland

BEEF PRODUCTION.

Many of the stockmen of southeastern
New Mexico are planning bnsiness-ike
move for the coming winter. Heretofore
it has been the custom to shi p range
cattle into the corn raising districts of
Kansas and other northern states aud
there fatten them for the market, but now
that the production of alfalfa has reached
such proportions in New Mexico, par
ticularly in the lower Pecos valley, there
is no reason why winter feeding at home
should not become part of the regular
business of the New Mexico stockman.
The New MEXICAN is pleased to note that
Mr.. j. F. Hinkle, the Littlefield Cattle
company and other stock raisers in Lin
coin, Chaves and EDDY counties are going
extensively into alfalfa feeding this winter.
This move marks new era in the stock
business which New Mexico has long
looked forward to. We believe it will
pay handsomely, for with the dry, warm
winters and big irrigation districts to
draw from there is no fear that any other
section of the country can excel southern
New Mexico in beef raising when gov
erned by ordinary business principles.

CONSUMPTION is "CATCHINC."

DR.. f. w. Reilly, assistant health COM
missioner of Chicago, has issued valu-
able circular concerning the prevalence
and prevention of consumption. Chicago
stands sixth among the great cities of the
United States in freedom from consump-
ton, having only eighty four deaths from
this disease ont of every 1000 deaths
from all causes. During the last forty
years there has been reduction of nearly
40 per cent in the mortality from con-
sum ption in that city. Last year there
we're only 2,15S deaths from this cause,
while in the proportion of forty years
ago the number would have been 4,2l0.
All the other leading cities have nearly
twice as many deaths from this disease as
Chicago, and that city's immunity from
the disease is attributable, it is said by
the Chicago Record, chiefly to DR.. Reilly's
efforts. 1t has now been thoroughly es-
tablished that consumption is "catching,'
bnt DR.. Reilly points out very clearly
Just when it is contagious and when 1t is
not, The lesson of his circular is summed
mn in these words: "If the expectorations
of all consumptives were destroyed be-
fore they get dry there would be no
spreading of the disease" There is no
contagion in the breath or in any other
way than through the sputa, and only
through this when it is dry and floats in
the air in the form of dust. DR.. Reilly
therefore suggests that oil sputa should
be received on bits of cloth and burned
before getting dry. 1t is also safe, how
ever, to receive the representations in
water and empty them through the sewer.
The sewage germs kill the consumption
germs.
DR.. Reilly believes that the neglect of
this simple precaution not only causes
new cases of consumption, but often re-
infects the patient himself, preventing
his recovery, He states that the disease
is in no case hereditary, and that it is,
Furthermore, much more durable than is
generally supposed. The disease can be
reduced to minimum by abolishing the
prevalent and dangerous habit of indis-
criminats expectoration in public places.

silver Mathematics,

American admirers of English states
men should make note of the following
extract of one of A. j. Balfour's speech
es:
at is permissible for those who have
formed their opinion on these questions
upon imperfectly remembered scraps of
economics picked up fifty years ago to
still hold to the view that the bimetallist
is lunatic, but do not believe any man
who has seriously considered the litera-
ture of this subj ect during the last gen.
Grafton holds this opinion or can posi-
bly, hold it,"
Still good many express it, "silver
lunatics" is common form of speech
among gold papers. Even one of the
dignified bankers who addressed the re-
cent bankers convention talked glibly
about silver blatherskites. Public men,
who invariably speak courteously of OPP
ponents in the other national organiza-
tions, find no expression too strong to
apply to the advocates of free silver coin
age.-San Francisco Bulletin.

THE report that one result of the A., I.
& s. L. re organization will be the chang
ing of the corporations name is proba-
bly, without any sort of foundation save
silly newspaper gossip. Such an under
taking could not be carried out without
heavy cost both in money and prestige.
To-day the world knows it as the "Santa
Fe route" and doubtless that's the title if
will bear to the end of time, despite the
efforts of OK President Rhelnhart to make
it popular as "the Atchison."

Is the Climate Changing?

1t has been the history of countries
from generation to generation, that eli
matte changes come; such changes have
been readily noticed within the past few
years in our territory, and the seasons are
becoming more productive year by year,
AS the land is being broken, waterways
and reservoirs constructed, the rains are
naturally more abundant. With the pres
ent prospects New Mexico will be classed
as one of the largest and safest producing
countries in the world. The man who has
staked his all in our coming state will in
time see it increased hundred fold.--
