The democrats elected the four alder
men-Neustadt by % votes, Kieke by 26,
Tierney by 10. and Burkhart by 2S.
The republicans elected the four mem
bers Of the board OF education, namely
James by 8 votes, Fox by II. Harsch by
40, and Hopkins by 10.
A glance at the above figures show con-
clusiyely that the democrats, urged on
by the slush fund appropriated by the
corporations, fought desperately to OBJ
tain control Of the city government, In
order to burden the people during their
regime with unnecessary debts, and, az
the board Of education has no voice In

Again, Il is stated on most excellent
authority, that the corporations gave 4

ashes" was the rep which the eager
soldiers of Spain ade to their COM
mander.
In the deep bed of a creek, miles
away, three smoke blackened persons
were moving slowly and cautiously,
without speaking, away from the scene
of the fire. Need l say that these three
were Harry Ostend, Binnie- and Ned?
They were shaded fl m prying eyes by
the thick foliaged trees and by
the bushes which fringed the water.
In Harry Ostends hands was a small
compass. With the aid of this the
party travelled, undeviatingly, in the
direction of the coast. Where the
creek b, me a brawling torrent, in it's
flow toward the ocean, and filled it's
banks, forcing the travellers to seek
safer footing above, the trio cautiously
emerged from the darkness to the full
light of day.
They were upon hill, and the land
scape below was wide and clearly in
view. They saw a fleet of transport
ships lying off shore, the decks of
which were crowded with soldiers.
Scores of small boats, laden to the edge
with armed men, were coming ashore
from the transports. The hillsides in
all directions teemed with soldiers, and
Harry Ostend clearly saw that the gen.
eral advance of the American army
upon the Notifications surrounding
Santiago de Cuba would soon be made.
The sight put elasticity into the steps

Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt, the two
officers who stood before our friends,
led the famous Rough Riders before
Santiago. When Binnie heard their
names and knew who they were his
eyes Sparkled.
IT have heard Of you before, Binnie,
and through good friend Of yours, an
other brave California boy, your friend
Ned. He Is, I may tell you, at work for
Admiral Sampson. and you are already
known by reputation. May / have the
honor, gentlemen" interposed Colonel
Wood, "to attach you to my command"
II am yours to command" said Har-
ry Ostend, who had hoped to be permit
ted to serve with the Rough Riders.
Binnie was overwhelmed at the good
fortune that had befallen him. Julia
alone held back.
And what says. your boy friend.

HE, that is she,'' said Binnie, trying
hard not to laugh, as a girl

sponded Colonel Wood
Nothing to authorize it in the army

Roosevelt.

fit my case?" asked the girl, archly but
eagerly. II can shoot and I have been

the verdict reached.

spoke, when the fighting begins you

am member of the army of Cuba

AS she spoke a bugle upon distant
hill was blown. The cry was an
swered upon a nearer hill Other
bugles took up the strain.
That is the signal for the advance
of the American army, my brave girl,
and it is now too late to send you to
the rear. You shall go on as one of
my staff, if you will. if you think you
are strong enough to face privation
and DEATH"
julia with a quick motion, and be-
fore she could be prevented, took the
rough right hand of Colonel Wood in
her hands and kissed it,
I will not disgrace you nor yet the
service" she said, passionately.
And now it was onward all along the
line. Onward to perils which the
bravest man might shrink from On
ward, onward, to victory or to death.

this was the most critical moment of
his life. Overcome by the great weight
of the hound and the force Of it's as
sault upon him, he was thrown upon
his back. The M ute let go it's hold
upon his arm sought to seize the
boy by the throat. Binnie threw up his
hands TO push the beast away, only to
have them torn and brushed aside.
Surely the brute would fix his deadly
grasp now, and II would be over in
another instant. Julia was busy en-
gaging the wounded hound and could
not help him. But when was Harry
Ostend ever known to fail in an emer-
gency? He saw, with horror, the
hound upon Binnie's PROSTATE form.
Ostend's pistol was in his belt, but he
leveled it like a flash. Surely and
swiftly sped his bullet and the hound
fel, over, mortally wounded, upon Bin
MES chest, the weight nearly suffocat-
ing him.
Binnie uttered a cry Of joy as he
struggled to his feet once more and saw
that Julia was not hurt. She had made a
fine shot, not killing but badly Grip

How shall we escape?" asked Binnie
and Julia in the same instant.
"A good engineer never builds a fort
without providing a way to retreat

ing the stakes for this breastwork l
noticed that the ground seemed hollow
over by yonder tree. l dropped peb-

and then listened. 1 am sure that the
ground is hollow under our feet, and
that we have "a"
That we have a cave?" interrupted
Binnie, impatiently."
Yes, cave, and we will see about it
without delay"
1t was remarkable-the confident
manner that Harry Ostend had, when
all seemed lost: but Binnie had learned
to have confident trust in him at all
times and did not doubt him now.
Shielded by the clouds of smoke, the
brave friends were able to toll unob-
served. They tore down the breast
work and. used the limbs to dig with.
Suddenly the dirt began to slide, and a
mass of soil disappeared below.
"Hurrah, now" said Harry Ostend,
cheerily; down with you, Binnie, and
explore, while 1 fix UP the damage that
you have done"
Binnies voice was heard from below
at once: "Ah, this is great; we have a
sure way to escape here if only we can

hurried up. What do you say to get

There is plenty of time before the
train starts"
So they got on, and were soon going
from car to car, selling faster than
they could make change. Jack was sc
busy and excited that he did not hear
the whistle. The train started before
he noticed. Then he ran through the
aisle, out onto the platform and was
about to jump from the swiftly NOV

conductor, who was standing there.

the soldiers. They were marched
short distance and were again halted,

Harry Ostend knew them both at once.

T ACK NORTON lived with his
father and mother in fruit or
chard near Newcastle. 1t was sit
I'll uated ON one of the high hills. The
red, newly 'plowed ground was a
pretty setting for the peach trees,
which, seen from distance, made one
think of checkerboard so evenly were
they planted. In lieu of spending
money Jack was given peaches to sell
on his own account, which he did by
going along outside of the through
trains which stopped before going over
the Sierra Nevada Mountains into the
desert beyond.
Although there were many engaged
in that business, Jack, at nearly the
close of the season had Sc, and every
time he counted that money in his
pocket he wanted to get more. Jack
at once consulted his friend, Tom Mar
tin, taking the money out and arrang-
ing it even in piles on some fruit boxes
near the depot.
Look at that. All saved since the
season began, and I haven't spent one
cent of it. No, sir. 1 intend to save

ed Harry Ostend, an order that Julia
promptly obeyed
While Binnie had been below Harry
Ostend had pulled the tree limbs to
the hole in the ground. He now placed
them across the hole and heaped dirt
high above them, leaving, however, a
place large enough for his body to
pass through. When his feet struck
the bottom of the subterranean pas
sage he was still able to reach
the limbs above him. A strong pull
drew them over the hole, and the soil
slid in upon them and covered them
completely. The fire, burning off the
limbs Of the forest trees, sent down a
mass of flaming debris, which was
heaped over the entrance to the cave,
and so effectually ncealea it.
When the Spaniards some time later,
seeking among the still smoldering
ashes, soueht evidence of the death of
the Americans, they were unable to
even say definitely where the breast

trains coming swiftly in. Getting his
peaches, Jack was soon going along
the side of the train. The windows

the ground. With r. machete Binnie
dispatched the brute.
"Hark," he said. the Spaniards are
near; come away"
When the Spaniards arrived in this
threatening neighborhood they We're
surprised, as they peered through the
trees, to see the three dead hounds, and
still more to observe the hastily con-
structed breastwork behind which
but keeping out of sight Harry Ostend,
Binnie and Julia were at bay.
What happened next was character
istic of the cruelty of the Spanish SOL
diers. They decided not to risk an at
tack upon the sharpshooting Ameri-
cans What then? They would burn
the forest and roast the Americans
alive. No Apache ever conceived
greater cruelty. To think was to
act. Torches of dry wood were applied
to the resinous trees in a dozen differ

into ready flame. High into the air sped
upward the flames, roaring and Mss

Closer and closer drew the names WIN
