evenings ago.
1t was at the end of warm day, and
Colonel Barbour walked from his hotel
into Mcpherson square and sat down on
a bench 10 smoke a cigar Presently a
gentleman sat down beside him. The two
began to chat, and presently the new
conner announced that he was CUBAN
Il never knew but one Cuban for whom

Barbour, casually, and his name was
Edward Delgardo.

1t was now Colonel Barbour's turn TO
be surprised, but he naturally would not
accept the statement until he had re-

no mistake. Years and years ago, Colonel
Barbour went 10 school a. Newport. X. l.,
and one of his chums was young Gu

SO far as the boundary line between
Alaska and the British possessions is
concerned there can be no serious dis
pute with reference TO the Klondyke
gold fields. North of Mount St. Elias the
line is fixed along the one hundred and
forty-first degree Of west longitude,
and as this can easily be located ex-
actly by engineers, it viii not take long
TO determine which side of the line the
principal placer mines are located on.

A petition for a rehearing of very
important suit-so important 10 the
taxpayers of Salt Lake that a decision
adverse to the city may involve a
judgment against it of over 100000
and costs-will be argued next laonth

case be reviewed by the federal court.

Peace and order seems to be the
watchword of the coal-mine strikers.
