posts on which 1t was supported, they
Could see by the light Of the moon, now
growing Inomenfarily clearer, that a great
and uproarious concourse Of people was
gathered beyond in front of the yeranda of
the nest itself
Come on. Otter" whispered Leonard.
I'VE must go among these gentry. Watch
me closely, do what / do, keep your weap
ons ready, and If it comes to blows get be-
hind my back and fight like devil.
Above all. don't be taken prisoner"
Leonard spoke calmly, but his heart was
in his mouth. and his sensations were
such as must have been known to Daniel
when he went into the lions den, for, as
in the case of the prophet, he felt that
nothing short Of special providence could
save them. They were round the shed
now, and Immediately in front of them
was mixed gathering of desperadoes-
Portuguese, Arabs, bastards and black
men of various tribes-such MS Leonard
had never seen in all his varied experience
Villainy and greed were written on ev-
cry countenancc 1t was crew of human
demons, and an extensive one. These
wretches, most of whom had already drunk
too freely and were drinking more, stood
the veranda of the nest. On the steps Of
this veranda, surrounded by choice group
of companions, all Of them gaudily dress
ed, man was standing whom Leonard
would have had no difficulty IN identify
ing as the Dom Pereira, even without Of
ter's warning whisper of See! The yell
low Deviln'
This remarkable person demands some
IL. L.
ut the apex, and, though he knew 1t not,
the conclusion of his long career of infaniy.
He was old, perhaps 20, his hair was white
and venerable looking and his person
obese. His black eyes were small, cum
ming, cold and bright, and they had the
popularity of avoiding the gaze of any
person with whom he was in conversation
at least when that person was looking
his way. Their glance passed over him,
under him, round him-anywhere but at
him. As his sobriquet suggested the col
oring of Pereira's flesh was yellow, and
the loose skinhung In huge wrinkles upon
his cheeks. His mouth was large and
coarse, and his fat hands twitched and
grasped continually, as though with de-
sire of clutching gold. For the rest he
was gorgeously dressed, and, like his com
panions somewhat in liquor.
Such was the outward appearance of
Pereira, who was believed in his day to be
the very wickedest man in Africa, pre-
eminence to which few, can hope to attain,
and the fountain head of the slave trade
on this part of the coast. Until his face
had been seen, stamped as it was with the
traces of long and Uncomfortable evil,
few honest men could guess to what depths
humanity can sink. Some indeed have
declared that to see him was to understand
the devil and all his works.

He ouTcAsT.

Strange dreams of what used TO be
And what dreamed | would be, swim
Before my vision, fair and dim,
AS misty distances we see
In picture scenes of fairy lands:
And ever on, with empty hands,
And eyes that ever lie TO me,
And smiles that no one understands,
| grope a-down my destiny.
Some say | waver when / walk
Along the crowded thoroughfares,
And some leer in my eyes and talk
OF dullness, when | see in theirs
Like fishes eyes, alive or dead
But surfaces or vacancy
Blank discs that never seem to see,
But CLINT and glare and glow instead.
The ragged shawl wear is wet
With driving, dripping rain, and yet
1t seems royal raiment, where
Through twisted torrents of my hair,
see rare gems that CLEAN and shine
Like jewels in stream of wine,
The gaping shoes that elothe my feet
Are golden sandals, and the shrine
Where courtiers grovel and repeat
Vain prayers, and where in JOY thereat
A fair prince doffs his plumed hat
And kneels, and names me all things
sweet.
Sometimes the sun shines, and the lull
OF winter noon is like tune,
The stars might twinkle to the moon
If night were white and beautiful
For when, the clangor of the town
And strife of traffic softens down
The wakeful hunger that / nurse,
In listening, forgets the curse,
Until-ahl joyl with dropping head
| browse, and dream that l am dead
And buried safe beyond their eyes
Who either pity or despise.

incident occurred in the court Tuesday when the Apache Indian Car-tu-sa was discharged, after the grand jury ig- nored the charge against him, which was stealing a steer.
 Car4tu-sa was brought in from the jail and tremblingly stood before the judge as if expecting to be banished to the hunting grounds beyond. The judge is not very well up in the In- dian language, but he knew that "Yu-ka-sha' meant to go.
 "Yu-ka-sha," said the judge.
 "Ugh," said the Indian, and broad grin appeared on his face, btu. he did not move, apparently doubling the judges earnestness in the command.
 ''Yu-ka-sha," repeated Judge Rouse in a little louder tone.
 Ugh! My brother,'' exclaimed the Indian and he rushed up and shook hands with the judge. Then he shook hands with the lawyers and bailiffs and disappeared through the hall smiling and shaking hands with every man he met.

Everywhere the eye turned were festoons of ever greens, flowers and peppers. Two large Christmas trees attracted the eyes of the children with their loads of gifts. Between the two trees a fireplace had been built surmounted by 8 chimney made of paper boxes.

SEVENTH REGIMENT ELECTION
1t Is the AIl-Absorbing Topic at the

.~HsS - sHS
Armory
But little is talked about the local mill
tary headquarters outside of the coming
election for Lieutenant Colonel and Major
of the Seventh Regiment. N. G. c., the
official orders for which were published in
The Herald yesterday morning. The
action of General Johnson in naming
Major NJ. T. Owens to preside over the
GERS of the regiment, for while they think
that Colonel Schneider will act impair
TALLY, his warm personal interest is such
that it is better that some one else should
be in charge.
Lieutenant Colonel Rowland will prob
ably be again elected without opposition,
and then the fun will commence on
Major. The friends of Lieutenant Ken
nedy will probably present his name, and
Lieutenant Weller may also make an
other try. AS to Captain Halpin's candi-
dacy, there is some doubt. as in case he
should be successful, it is understood
that protest will at once be presented
that he is ineligible. Then, too. some Of
the officers are annoyed at the action of
Captain Halpin and his company for try
ing to work up a present for Colonel
Schrieber, this proposed present being a
war-horse and equipments valued at some
$3.50. The plan as proposed is for the
various companies to subscribe SIS each,
the balance to be made up by the men,
berg of the staff. There is no particular
objection to giving Colonel Schreiber the
said horse as mark of the appreciation
of the regiment but both the officers and
men think that, in view of the circum-
stances, it would have looked better COM
ing from some other source.
The feeling over the election is running
high, and all the time that the young
gentlemen can spare from their business
pursuits will be devoted to this all-ab-
sorbng war topic.

Mrs. Ewlng's Last Lesson Treats Of How (
Make the Best Of Both

Mrs. Ewing's Last Lesson Treats Of How to
Make the Best Of Both
Mrs. Ewing gave her last object lesson
yesterday afternoon at the Y. M. G. A.
hall, with cakes and pastry as her subject.
The mysteries Of making white sponge
or angel cake were first disclosed; then
flaky pie crust was made, and the secret
OF making good pie crust was said to de.
pend on one underlying principle. which
is to gather into the plecrust plenty OF
cool fresh air; good pie crust cannot be
made in hot room.
Cake frosting was next explained. fol-
lowed by delicate cake and variety of
delicious concoctions for placing between
the layers, as chopped nuts and citron;
chopped raisins, chopped almonds, grated
chocolate and orange and lemon paste.
Never frost cake while it is warm, and
always bake it slowly.
Mrs. Ewing closed her lesson by show
ing contrast between the cook and a
painter or sculptor; the former is more
than mere dabber of paint. or molder
of clay. since she is building the human
frame, and that is proof of the necessity
for her to put her mind into her work.
