"Yes-I took it Voluntarily. No one

made her confession slowly.

He gathered her close to his heaving
breast. There was no uttered word of
betrothal, but under the sweet olive
branches they sat silent, contentcd, re-
united. The moon mounted higher and
gazed down upon them more inquisi-
lively. What she saw was strong man

tenderly between his own. What she
heard was o glad, tranquil voice mur-

He possessed an intuitive knowledge OF

His singular self reliance enabled him
at critical junctures to decide instantly

A Liar With q Big Fish.

Dear! dear!" exclaimed George b.
Pegram to a covey of railroad birds
In the st. James, ''how many liars
there are in the world anyhow.
Every small and large town has it's
star liar, and my old town had one.
My old town was Chatham, Mass.
There was, when I was boy, an old
fellow of the name Of George Sam
ders, who wore without an effort the
silver star of champion long distance
liar for the town and neighbor1ng
vicinity. This fellow had been, ac-
cording to himself, lost 30 times in
great ocean wrecks. He had wan
dered naked and starving up and
down cannibal islands and been res
oued in a most providential manner.
Sharks and whales had vainly har-
bored designs against his life, and in
variably he had led them a bootless
chase. In doing all this he had also
established his star reputation. One
day George came into the town drag
ging after him an immense Goldfish.
He stopped at all the houses, he
was so well known, and calling out
the inhabitants pointed with pride
to the fish and said: Now, If I had
told you people had caught a fish OF
that size you would1 have believed
It, George knew his reputation well,
aud he knew that to gain the actual
credit for his catch that he would
have towork for it. 1t always tickled
me to think that the biggest liar in
town should catch the biggest fish
and then be compelled to drag it all
around town to prove it."-st Louis

PLATFORM.

The Democrats of Nevada in Con-
Y~eniion assembled declare as follows:
We endorse every line, word and sylla-
bic OF the platform adopted by the
Democratic National Convention in
Chicago in 1895, with particular en-
phasis upon the resolution advocating
the free and unlimited coinage of both
gold and silver and without the aid or
consent of any nation on the face of the
earth.
We glory in the achievements Of the
Army and Navy. in the late wal with
Spain, and we commend the Democratic
Congressman In their course upon the
prosecution Of the war, as patriotic,
statesmanlike and compatible with the
honor and dignity of our nation.
We agree with Senator Teller, an
ardent Protectionist, that the Dingley
law wa formulated and passed, not for
the protection of American labor, nor
fer the purpose OF revenue for the gov
ernment, but exclusively In the interest
of the m%onopolies and trusts, which
furnished the corruption money to car
ry on the Mckinley campaign. We
furthermore declare without fear of
successful contradiction, that any or all
of the provisions OF the infamous law do
not, directly or Indirectly, benefit to
the amount of a farthing hundred
actual residents OF Nevada, while the
entire people of the State are addition
ally taxed in increased prices of the
necessaries OF life to an amount more
than sufficient to defray the entire ex-
penses of the State government. And
1t Is with shame and humiliation that
we point to the fact that this measure
so distressful to the people OF Nevada
was passed by tine aid Of our Senators,
without which il could never have be-
come a law.
We demand Home Rule for the peo.
pie Of Nevada. Our National Gogern-
mont inaugufstsd a bloody and expen-
siye var 20 .Rslre Home Rule to the

disgrace to the Commonwealth. Its
continued existence is an insult TO the
great Silver Party of the nation which
in 1896 polled nearly six millions of
votes for the bi-metallie eduse, and its
death would be mourned only by a few
office seekers who h ave maintained il in
the hope of being elected to positions
they could not obtain from any other
party in the State.
We favor the election of United
States Senators by the people, instead
of Legislatures. We believe that Ne
vada has suffered more from the pres
emf system than any other State In the
Union and we most earnestly demand
such change as will, TO a partial extent
at least, prevent the gross frauds and
corruption as has and which is now
prevailing In our Senatorial elections.
