PEEK'S ATTACK ON LIVINGSTON,
He Says the Wary Congressman Stole a
Horse and Wagon.

Horse and Wagon.
The papers say that Colonel L. F.
Livingston has issued a challenge to
Colonel w. l.. Peek, his populist oppo-
nent for congressional honors in the
fifth district, for a joint discussion of
the issues involved. Several days ago
Col. Peek, in a speech at Conyers, made
a charge that Col. Livingston had allowed
his posCoffice frank to be used by the
Seaboard Air Line railroad, and had
made 100000 out IF the transaction, by
aiding the Seaboard to get big mail
contract when the reweighipg of the
mails was in progress several months
ago. He has also made some other SEN
sational charges, it is said one Of which
was that Colonel Livingston, during the
war, had stolen horse and wagon.
When this information was brought to
the attention of Colopel Livingston
he at once sat down and wrote
Colonel Peek to meet him at Conyers
week hence and make the charges
to his face. Ii Colonel Peek accepts the
challenge there will be lively political
scrap.

M0BS AT BILBOA.
Spanish Rioters Break Windows in
the Residence of the
Consul.

Bilboa, Spain, March 9.-There was
another anti-American riot yesterday aft
ernOon. About $4,000 people took part
in the popular demonstration. The
riot was started by a group of men at
street corner, who began cheering every
soldier who passed by Their conduct
was sooL initiated by other groups of
people until every soldier seen was
cheered by the crowds, and some must
clans who refused to repeat the national
anthem were hustled, beaten and other
wise maltreated.
The excitement increased the riotous
groups formed in the main streets, cheer
ing for Spain and denouncing the United
States. The authorities did everything
possible to maintain order. Almost the
entire police force was turned out as
soon as the pOpulace assumed a threat
ening aspect and the rioters were dis
persed again and again. Eventually,
however, the mob became so numerous
and excited that the police were almost
helpless. After the first demonstration
of sympathy with the army the crowds
armed themselves with sticks and cud-
gels and their numbers were SO great
that the police were swept aside and an
immense crowd gathered on the leading
thOroughfare and marched toward the
residence of the United States consul,
shouting:
''Long live SPAIN
"DOWlf with the Yankees!
On their way to the cOnSufS residence
they hurled stones through the windows
of stores and private residences, over
turned a number of vehicles, pulled sew
eral mounted policemen from their
horses and generally behaved in the most
threatening manner. Stores dealing III
American goods received the most atteD-
ton from the mob and the windows of
the cOnsuPs house were badly shattered,
although the police defended the build
ing.
The mob then proceeded in the direc-
ton Of the United States consulate, evil
IDENTITY intending to stone that building as
we'll. But the authorities had take the
precautiOn to send a strong force of po-
lice to guard that building and another
detachment of police was stationed
sulate. Therefore, when the mob neared
the United States consulate it was con-
fronted by the police with drawn swords.
The mob halted and then began pelting
the police most vigorously with stones
and pieces of brick. The policemen,
of the officers charged the rioters
The latter began firing pistols at
the policemen, two of whom were
wounded. This caused the police
to charge in body. and, using
their swords with good effect, the rioters
were dispersed, yelling and hOoting at
the authorities and shouting Down with
the Yankeesr' and Long live SPAIN
The police, who made a number of ar
rests, experienced considerable difficulty
in escorting their prisoners to the depot.
During the whole of the afternoon there
was more or less disturbance. 1t was
| decided to keep the police proper and the
gendarmes confined to the barracks until
further orders, as there seemed to be dan
ger of another outbreak
The United States consulate is now
guarded by d strong detachment of gend-
armes, armed with carbines, revolvers
and swords, and they have instructions
to protect the consulate at any cost.

only to look on He did not care to join
the skaters. They did not care, either.
One, perhaps-but that would anticipate.
AS the evening advanced snow began to
fall. 1t came gently at first and the
skaters enjoyed it. 1t made them white
and picturesque. 1t dulled the sharp
ring of their skates into muff1ed rum
BILE as they sped over the fast coating
ice 1t chung in delightful little frosty
tilaments to the eyelashes of the girls
and whitened the mustaches of the
men. 1t was grand. Then the snow
king changed his mind suddenly. He
sent forth his tempest in moment.
The little feecy fakelets were followed
by binding drifts. Darkness covered
the land and an impenetrable snowfall
the skaters. Racing blindly for the
lake shore they found bank here and
there in detached groups; sometimes
three or four together, hand-in-hand;
often one by one blinded, dazed, demon
allied.
The secretary sat on tree-stump by
the bank and watched. careless of his
snowy jacket. The thing interested him
nothing more. He told himself that he
did not care a straw if the whole party,
man, woman and child, persisted in the
drifts. Still he waited persistently. He
did not tell himself for what. At last he
arose. Just then the muffled hum of q

two hands to his mouth and sent Il deaf
ening shout across the ice. A faint cry
answered back. He shouted again to in
dictate the direction. Then he heard the
sound of skates blowing through the
deepening snow straight for him. The
sound swerved to the right.

In ten seconds Miss Howard fell ex-

and then without a word of apology he

underwood. The cold became intense

He shook her roughly. She would not

increased. Then, failing in this, he burst

beat him soon. He was knee-deep in it
and he was off the track. When he
discovered this, by the uneven footing
stopped. Warrington was no coward.
But his heart failed him. He was phvsi-
cally incapable Of carrying the Girl far
Their. No shelter was near. The girl her
self was absolutely exhausted. He aD-
pealed to her again:
Could you not try to walk a bit

sWered feebIy. 1t is impossible Why
don't you leave me? l want to sleep,

That's where the trouble is. [ don't

He drank some brandy. The snowfall
only changed for the worse. 1t came
down with a force that had actual
weight in it. He staggered doggedly on.
Once he fell heavily. The relief from
the cutting wind was delightful. The
snow was soft. It was. a downy pillow

ne subject was dropped, and with it
the private secretary. When Miss How
ard received the report of the committee
she laughed immoderately. SO they
have had their trouble for nothing. At
the same time the girl did not forgive
the secretary certain sins OF omission.
He had treated her from the first with
marked Indifference. Still she was glad
of the overthrow of the committee. She
wanted 20 be her own executive.
Next morning Miss Howard received
written application from the secretary.
He required his meals served in the
room where he worked: otherwise he
would have them provided in the vii
lage. This was a terrible dilemma.
To give way to a private and contu-
maciOuS secretary was not pleasant.
But to allow Il stranger within the gates
to seek in the village what it must
be presumed had been denied in the cas-
tie was unthinkable. Miss Marion did
not forget this to the man who had set
| the traditions of a thousand years at
| defiance. Warrington had his meals in
the room given over to him. They We're
splendid feasts. He ate what he re-
! CURED of the simpler foods and ignored
the mystic delicacies. He made good
progress with Mr.. Markhams book on
| bimetalliSm.
Miss Howard told her best girl friend
that she began to hate the secretary
heartily on his own merits. She often
| met him as he was entering or leaving
the castle for his daily walk. When
| she was wearing a new or particularly
attractive gown she was certain to meet
him. This coincidence was without eX
ceptiOn. The secretary's tired face be-
gan to brighten as she passed. Her an
tipathy was really less violent than she
had described to her friend. But he
was still contumacious. He had not
| yet bent the knee and did not seem like
! ly to do so.
The mistress of the castle was going
on a round of visits She was beauti-
! fully dressed. It was the secretary s
! hour for knocking off," But he did
! not knock off at all that day. Conse-
| quently Miss Howard found him in his

should have been out of it. She only
waited moment; just long enough to
/ leave the breath of delicate perfume
and the recollection of a charming face

had been working hard tat day.
