before the warm blaze and were quick
ly asleep.
Lieutenant Raymer, after seeing to
the preparations for the entertainment
of his guest, divested himself of his
arms and marching gear and went to
the cabin where the wounded boy had
been placed. He found him asleep, with
Mason in attendance. The soldier re.
ported that he had set his patients leg
satisfactorily, but that the lad had been
restless until the return Of the rascuing
party. When he heard OF its arrival and
that the lady was safe, he sank into a
quiet sleep. He was exceedingly weak
from the loss of blood. But Mason was
not very hopeful of the boys recovery,
fearing his limited knowledge of sur
gerry and medicine would avail little if
the case proved complicated. The lieu
tenant assured him that he had conf
dence in his skill as nurse and thought
he was doing all that could be done
under the circumstances. He made
few suggestions and returned to his
quarters.
Walking along the path to his door,
he noticed thick clouds were gathering
in the northwest and decided chill i'll
the air. He entered his cabin, and seat
ing himself before his hearth raked u
few Goals out of the ashes and placed
couple of pine knots upon them. A
fame burst forth that bathed the room
in flood of light. He sat there long
time rejecting upon the happenings Of
the night.
His hopes had been fulfilled and dis
appointed. The expedition to Los Ojos
Frios had resulted in success, so far as
the defeat of the Indians and the rescue
of the imprisoned Mexicans were con-
cerned. But that other hope, born Of the
discovery of the jewelry on the body Of
the dead thief, hope that had grown
with every heartbeat as he neared the
location of the cabins-that hope had
been dispelled utterly, and he felt that
there was nothing to be done but to dis
miss it forever 1t was dream never to
be realized
He confessed to bitter disappointment
and found a bitter pleasure in dwelling
upon what his hopes had been. He took
from the table the missal which had
fallen from the Valencia ambulance i'll
Santa Fe, turned its leaves listlessly for
few moments, laid it aside and went
to bed, burdened with the unpleasant
reflection that the projected union of
the houses of Ortega and Valencia was
inevitable.

GARMENTS $50 B. C.-From the
most authentic authorities we learn
that there was but little, if any, effort
made to fit the garments to the body
$50 years before Christ, and the chief
and indispensable article of wear was
called the "chiton," a linen bag-like
affair made in one piece and open at
the top and bottom. 1t reached from
the neck to the feet, and was so wide
that the arms might be extended with
out discomfort. This particular style
must have been all the rage, as we say
nowadays, for the richer class likewise
wore the chiffon; but it was composed
of silk instead of linen, and another
similar costume. called the "himation,'
was composed of some sort of woolen
stuff.

DEMANDED HER SHARE.

She was tall, spare woman, SAL
low of coloring, lustreless of eye, with
STOPPING shoulders, and hard, gnarled
hands. For 40 years she had been
the wife of the man who sat beside
her in the lawyers Office and those
40 years had been spent in hard man
ual labor, the perennial baking and
brewing, the almost ceaseless toll that
belongs to the lot of farmers wives.
Their joint home had been small
acreage of land in Western Pennsylva-
MIA, which had been hardly reclaimed
from the wilderness but which now,
in the light of some recent coal find
ings, had become valuable and salable
property. 1t was to execute such a
deed of sale that the two had come to
the attorneys office, and they waited
passively and quietly while the law
yer's clerk prepared it.
Presently it was ready, and true to
the custom Of their married life, it was
"father" who first took the pen, and,
with much labor and pains, produced
his signature.
Then "mother" was asked to put
her name on the proper line, and a
place was made for her at the office
desk. But she did not move. Her
bands fumbled nervovsly, and she
cleared her throat of some choking
emotion.
"Before I sign the paper" she said,
and her voice grew steady and firm,
II want to know what my shares to
be. I've worked as hard as father all
these years on the farm, and I've pinch
ed and managed and earned whatever's
to be paid for it, as much as he, and I
want set sum that's all mine, and
that 1 can hold in my own hands, and
have belong to me alone"
Husband and lawyer were both
amazed at this outburst, but her man
ner indicated so much resolution be-
hind it that the legal man proposed at
once not to combat her, but to accede
to her request. In a conciliatory
speech he acknowledged the reason
ableness of her demand, and wished
to know what she would consider a
fair estimate of her share, her husband
sitting by dazed and speechless at this
unexpected turn Of affairs.
The woman did not hesitate.
81 thought Of that, too," she said
"it's been 40 years, a good 40 years,
for we took the farm in the fall, and
this is spring, and it seems to me" her
voice broke little at this critical mo-
ment-"it seems to me-" she repeated,
"as if I'd ought to have 500"
Which, says the New York Tribune,
is true story of recent happening.

FIRST WILLs.-Wills were at first
oral, as were also gifts of lands, and
only morally binding on the survivors.
Origen and other fathers of the early
church credited Noah with having
made will, and in the fourth century
the bishop Of Brescia declared all
those heretical who denied Noah's di-
vision of the world to his three sons
by will. The oldest known wills are
those of Egypt. Both oral and written
wills not infrequently contained i'm
precautions on those who neglect them.
The earliest written will in existence
is that of Sennacherib, which was
found in the Royal Library of Kon-
youjik. There is a great sameness

CHAPTER IV-CoNTINUED.
The sergeant led the way to the first
cabin to the left, occupied by himself as
quarters and orderly room. Before the
entrance stood q small, wiry mustang,
with saddle and bride of Mexican pat
tern, and upon the ground, resting on
q soldiers mattress and pillow, lay
boy of about 16 years. He was nearly as
dark as an Indian, and his glossy black
hair fell low over his shoulders. His
dress was made up of buckskin and
coarse flannel, and a sorry felt hat COW
cred his head. Dirty russet leather
botas, or CATERS, protected his calves.
The left leg of his trousers had been
slit down the thigh by all intelligent
looking soldier who knelt by his side
skillfully adjusting ligature and COM
press above a ragged gunshot wound.
"El conandante?" asked the boy as
the lieutenant approached and the men
opened way for him.

"The cabin at Los Ojos Frios?"
'"The same, senior.
Chow long can they hold out?'

lieutenant, turning to the first sergeant,

Then, turning to the soldier who waited
upon him, he added: "Cain, get my
horse ready, with my arms and field
glass, and tell Sergeant Cunningham to
include you in the number of mounted
men. You can ride the Mexican pony. "
The wounded boy was then taken into
q vacant cabin that had been used from
time to time as a sickroom, and an ex-
animation of the wound was made by
the soldier that had stanched the flow

The Democrats of Rhode Island taken
strong grounds against the proposed con-
stitutional amendment providing for
biennial elections in that State. Prob
ably the only reason for doing SO is that
the amendment is proposed by Repub-
lican legislature. Biennial elections are
the. rule, only very few States retain
ing the annual plan, and no State that
has adopted the former has gone back to
the latter. This is pretty strong proof
that the biennial plan, instead OF being

Gratis say, is desirable improvement,

Probably the movement to form free
silver party has for its real purpose the
frightening of one of the existing parties
into more concessions to the white metal.
1t is not probable that Mr.. Sibly has
been nominated for the presidency with
any other idea than this. The fact that
the movement has been started in the
east where the silver sentiment is sup
posed to be weak tends to confirm this
view. If the existing parties can be con-
vlnced that there is a strong silver SEN
timent everywhere of course the chance
Of inducing them to look with favor on
free coinage is increased. Between now
and tue time the Presidential conven-
tons are held the country may look for
lots OF silver demonstrations.
