Pardon. o King. the matter stands
thus. My uncle Umgona, here, has a
fair daughter named Nanea whom /
desire to wife, and who desires me to
husband. Awaiting the Kings leave
I an betrother to her, and in earnest Of
it have paid to Umgona fifteen head
of cattle. COWS and calves together But
UmgOna has o powerful neighbor, an
old chief named Maputa, the Warden
Of the Crocodile Drift, who doubtless is
known to the King. and this chief also
seeks Nanea in marriage, and harries
Umgona, threatening him with many
evils if he will not give the girl to him.
But UmgOna's heart is white toward
me, and toward Maputa it is black,
thereforetogetherw We come TO crave this
boon Of the King"
1T is so, he speaks the truth" said
Umgona.
Cease" answered CetywayO, angri-
~. "Is this a time that my soldiers
should seek wives in marriage, wives
TO turn their hearts to water? Know
that but yesterday for this crime
commanded that twenty girls who had
dared without my leave to marry men
of the Undi Regiment should be stran-
gled and their bodies laid upon the
crossroads and with them the bodies Of
their fathers, that all might know their
sin and be warned by it. Ay, Umgona,
it is we'll for you and for your daughter
that you sought my word before she
was given In marriage TO this man.
Now this is my award: I refuse your
prayer, Nahoon and since you, lingo
ma, are troubled with one whom YOU
would not take as sOn-in-law. the old
Chief Maputa, I will free you from his
Importantly. The girl. says NahoOn,

to her and she shall be numbered

appealing to Caesar" and he turned to
look at the two upplantS.
The old man, UmgOna, merely start
ed. then began to pour out sentences Of
conventional thanks and praise to the
King for his goodness and cOndescen-
sion which CetywayO answered by re-
minding him tersely that if Nanea did
not appear at the date named, both she
and he. her father, would in due course
certainly decorate crossroad in their
own immediate neighborhood
The Captain. Nahoon. afforded more
curious study. As the fatal words
crossed the Kings lips his face took

one OF fury. the first fury of man vino

veins stood out in knots on his neck
and FOREHEAD, and his fingers closed con-
yulziyely as though they were grasp
ing the handle of a spear. Presently
The rage passed away-for as well
might man be wrath with fate as with
a Zulu despOt-to be succeeded by a
look OF most hopeless misery. The
proud, dark eyes grew dull, the copper
colored face sank in and turned ashen,
the mouth dropped, and from one cor
ner of it there rickled a little line Of
blood springing from the lip bitten
through in the effort to keep silence.
Lifting his hand in salute to the King,
the great man rose and staggered rath-
er than walked toward the gate.
AS he reached il the voice of Getty
wayO commanded him to stop. Stay, -
he said. Il have a service for you, Ma
noon that shall drive out Of your head
these thoughts of wives and marriage.
You see this White Man here: he is my
guest and would hunt buffalo and big
game in the bush country. l put him
in your charge; take men with you and
see that he comes to no hurt. See also
that you bring him before me within a
month. or your life shall answer for It,.
Let him be here at my royal kraal in
the first week of the new moon-when
Nanea cOmes-and then l Will tell you
whether or no agree with you that she
is fair. Go, now, my child, and you,
White Man. go also; those who are to
accompany you shall be with you at the
dawn. Farewell, but remember that
we meet again at the new moon, when
we shall settle what pay you shall re-
ceive as keeper of my guns. DO not
fail me. White Man, or l shall send al
ter YOU. and my messengers are some
times rough
That means that I am prisoner, -
thought Hadden, but it will go hard
ii I cannot manage to give them the
slip somehow. l don't mean to stay in
this country if w2r breaks out, TO be

WYOMING SEMINARY.

A very exciting game of foot ball was
played last Saturday at Young Mems
Christian association park. Wilkes
Barre, between our team and a team
from the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation. The game was played by twen-
ty minute halves, and was marked by
good plays on each side. The Wilkes
Barre boys put up very good game.
owing to the fact that two of the players
were former seminary p ayers and knew
the signs of our team. For the Wilkes
Barre players, Wire, Reynolds and
Loveland did the best playing. and
for the Seminary we would mention
Blakeslee, Gendall, McDermOtt AMI
Decker. The result of the score was IS
to i'm favor of the Seminary.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.

New York, Oct. 9.-Stocks were quiet
again today. but the tendency Of prices
was downward. Today engagements
of nearly two millions were announced
from London, which. will bring the
weeks imports up to about five mil
lions. Foreign exchange was reduced
another half cent to 4S3 and 4S4la and
ruled weak to the close. AS on yester-
day Sugar was the feature of the trad
ing and dropped 2h per cent to 1O5 on
dealings of 63,600 shares. Refined sugar
WAS reduced another Il cent per pound
and this added to the bearish feeling.
Manhattan and Tobacco were strong in
the early dealings. rising to 93h and
69ls respectively.
The rise in Tobacco was generally as
cribed to covering of short contracts.
In the late trading the entire list weak
ened, owing to a sudden advance in
call money to per cent. The rise In
the rate led to the marketing of round
amounts of long stock and under this
process the usually active lists de-
clined anywhere from " to 2as per cent
Manhattan fell 2%to 9lh: Reading, all
assessments paid, rs to %, and the
other issues " to 1la per cent. Specu-
lation closed weak In tone. Net changes
show losses of 4 to per cent. on the
dag. Total sales We're 49,. .0S4 shares.
