CLEANING SANTIAGO.
Pig Force Mt Work Getting City Into
Sanitary Condition.

Santiago de Cuba, July 30.--The
work Of cleaning the city Is being
pushed with great activity. over 200
carts are employed In transporting
to the outskirts the dirt and refuse
removed from the houses. The work
will take some time. as before every
hish dumped into tho street by Gen.
Woods orders. This rubbish Is be-
Ing collected and burned in huge
bonflres.
A panicky feeling prevails In bus
mess circles here. owing TO the fear
that the Americans will turn the city
over to the Cubans for self-govern-
ment. No confidence exists owing to
the uncertainties OF the future. The
orders that were given during the
FIRST days OF the American occupation
have been conntermanded by cable.
European merchandise on through
bills of lading via New York have
been ordered unshipped and sold In
New York, even at sacrifice.

was she to his life and happiness.

CHAPTER Y.

Alice awoke early next morning. She
had slept but little. Her wounded
pride and aching heart proved veri-
table thorns in her pillow
She was haunted all night by the
vision OF Roys fair, handsome face
bending over Valerie's head, gazing
into her eyes with an eternity OF
love.
She did not like Valerie, yet she was
just.
at is | who keep them apart. What
can l do what can | do?" was the
thought that ragged in her mind, and
to this she could find no answer.
She rose and took her bath, then
robed herself in simple grey gown,
and, wrapping a mantle round her,
for the morning was chilly she left
her apartments and stole through the
silent corridor to the gardens and
grounds.
Throughout the two months that
had elapsed since the strange and
terrible episode that had changed her
whole life, the girl had lived en-
tirely alone.
She gave herself up to her books,
and for recreation walked in the park
till she knew every nook and corner
by heart.
No thought of pride or Joy that she
was part owner of this proud estate
came to her mind as she passed
through the avenues of leafess trees
and caught glmpses of the castle,
standing like a grey sentinel in the
background Instead, she wished now,
day and night, for something that
should free her from her husband
over her.
She walked on quickly. The wind
was soughing through the trees,
sounding mournfully and weird.
At last she reached a spot she fire.
quented most 1t was thickly wood
ed, and even now, though autumn
was at hand, the leaves were scarce
ly thinned. 1t was quiet and seclud-
ed, and Alice loved it.
She flung herself down on an old
trunk, and gave way to her thoughts.
She needed not the chill wind or
the sad rustic Of the trees, but after
sitting some time she became con-
scious of the approach of some per-
sons, and reused herself to listen.
The voices came on the air.
Il tell you, Paul, can do no more;
l have Notwithstanding now but my
few jewels, and you know l must
keep them even if they were worth
much, which they are not"
Can't you ask the old LADY, spoke
the deep tones of a man.
ible-utterly impossible"
Then the devil knows what Is to
become Of me, Valerie"
Alice grew uncomfortable, she cared
not to listen longer, yet disliked even
still greater TO rise and disclose her
self TO Valerie.
She was surprised and a little
alarmed. but deemed 1t wise to sit
STILL and perhaps the speakers would
pass.
You know went on the man sur
lly-"you know how / am situated.

here. but time has gone, and now Il

nothing for me-
