saw that the horse had a wide expanse
of treeless territory in front Of him
she began to hope that some fortunate
circumstance might interpose in her
behalf. Her good angel had not de-
serted her. A company Of Cuban
soldiers, who had been following the
guerrillas, were riding slowly over the
open plain that the wild horse with his
burden Of beauty was traversing. The
Cubans heard the horse coming, and
they halted, suspecting that one of
their men was being pursued. A full
moon was sailing In a cloudless sky,
and long before the wild horse reached
the Cuban column those in front were
puzzled as to the burden on the flying
animals back. They were, however,
not left In doubt for many moments.
The wild horse was very nearly ex-
hausted, and the moment he saw other
horses he ran among them and stopped
He was completely frightened out Of
his senses and so weak that he made no
attempt to move when a soldier threw
q rope over his neck. The Cubans
could hardly believe their own eyes
when they found a young lady dashed
to the back OF the wild horse, and
when Miss Monica had somewhat re-
covered and told her friends how II had
all occurred there was no limit to the
fury that prevailed in the camp. Many
Of the Cubans knew Miss Moniea's
father. and the officers were power
less to control the frenzied soldiers In
their desire to be avenged at once.
They knew the location Of the guerrilla
camp. and they demanded to be led
against the inhuman vretehes imme-
diately. Never did set Of land pirates
pay more dearly for their deviltfy.
The Cubans fell upon their camp about
sunrise. while they were yet paraIyzed
with liquor. and they shot everyone Of
them to death except the leader OF the
gang. who was captured and hung Iatsr

as they were preparing to camp, a
dozen or more Spanish guerrillas gal
loped up to the cart and overturned ii.
The young lady showed her pass to the
brute who appeared to be In command
and made a piteous appeal to him to
leave them undisturbed. She might as
well have talked to the stones In the
hills. The man could not read and, to
add to the terror he had already ex-
cited, Miss Monica discovered that the
guerrillas were all very drunk. They
helped themselves to the provisions
found In the cart. The leader Of the
gang, after offering the young lady
drink from his bottle, staggered
against her and made an attempt to
take her face in his hands. Now thor
oughly alarmed and preferring death
to dishonor. the little Cuban quickly
drew a stiletto from her bosom and
sprang at the monsters throat, barely
grazing his beard with the keen blade.
His comrades laughed and hurrahed

leader. The young lady's knowledge

an LONELINESS.

How stilI the old gray house! How
very still!
No voice. no step, no sound Of work
or play!
Each door is locked above its deep,
warm sill,
Each window eurtained from the
summer day.
The creeping grasses oyer-run the
walks,
Crowd close about the door steps,
rank and tall,
The wild birds nest among the weedy
stalks.
Black hornets glue their mud cells
to the wall.
The idle well sweep leans above the
well.
Viewing its idle image far below,
Where once the FLASHING bucket rose
and fell,
Where long, bright ferns and green
est MOSES grow.
The shed door stands ajar, and grow
ing things
Have pushed their curious blades
and leaves between.
But stand in check, with awesome
quiverings,
At something in the silence felt or
seen
The long. low barn is silent as the
dead,
Only the sunbeams creep along the
walls.
Only the shy mouse scurries. at your
tread,
Across the dusty floors and vacant
stalls.
The apple-trees from their scant
depths Of green,
Extend long, blackened, ghostly
arms to greet;
] The arbor vines have barred, with
leafy screen,
The door that opened to the old re-
treat
Abandoned? No. They who these
paths have trod,
Whose handiwork In fading lines We
trace,
Are lying now beneath this very sod
Blending their ashes with the old, low
ed place.

Irish Bacon Cursrs' Policy.

Canadian hog raisers and pork pack
ers need not imagine that their Irish
competitors will yield supremacy in
the English bacon market without a
struggle, says Farmers Advocate Of
Canada. The bacon cuTers Of Ireland
have spent money freely In order to
secure the class Of hogs they wanted
and from which their handsomest
profits were derived. Realizing that
the foundation Of success lay in breed
ing an improved type conforming to
modern requirements, We ,fnd that
since 1885 what is called the Bacon
Curers' Association has expended not
less than $4,000. chiefly in the intro
duction of high-class boars, which as
a rule are given free Of cost to the
farmers on condition that they are
properly fed and cared for, used only
for breeding purposes, and that
neighbors are charged only the ordi-
nary service fee. The Association en-
ploys inspectors, who visit those por-
tons Of the country from which the
curers obtain their hogs, and make re-
ports, after which the animals are
allotted. II a farmer is found to have
what is considered a bad type Of ami
NAL, II is taken from him and another
supplied. Sometimes they are chang
ed from one district to another. Good
three-months-old sows are occasion
ally sold at about fl each. The in
spector visits the farms from time to
time to see that the animals are prop
erly cared for. These breeding ami
mails, which have been chiefly York
shires, have been purchased from En-
gIish, Irish and Scotch breeders.
Something over q year ago the Bacon
Curers' Association started q breed
ing establishment or model piggery Of
their own near Limerick to provide
boars for sections Of the south and
west districts Of Ireland, and It Is pro-
posed to have a second one at Cora.
each having an inspector who also
keeps an eye on the feeding and gen.
eral management of the hogs raised by
farmers. II Is hoped under this sys-
tenn they viii get at the root OF trouble
experienced by the Irish trade In recent
years and place It In q permanently

A very slight circumstance doubtless
saved the young lady from q fats
worse than death, though It subjected
her To one OF the most frightful ordeals
ever endured by mortal flesh
One q Ne guerrsEas came into tne
camp leading a very wild-looking black
stallion, which he, in his drunken reck-
lessness, declared was the devils own
saddle horse. It appeared that they
had Just stolen the fine animal and that
he had thrown everyone who had
mounted him.
DO you think you could ride him.
my little tigress?" said one OF the
guerrillas, approaching Miss Monica
and making an attempt to become IA
miliar. Her answer. which was, i
should like nothing better than to try
seemed to tickle the desperate charae-
tiers immensely. Miss Monica says that
she hardly knows why she made suen
an answer. She realized that she hao
no chance Of escaping from the drunk
en- set and would willingly have ex-
changed her position for the back OF
the widest horse in the world. All
right" shouted the guerrilla chief, the
little tiger came near cutting my threat
and will Just send her to the devil
on horseback"
The big guerrilla seized the young
girl in his arms and running to the
wild horse which FIVE or six bowling
devils were at that moment lashing 10
a tree, he threw her across the AMI
mails back and shouted to his comrades
to fetch ropes. Let US have some
fun" he roared. Lash the little reoel
to the wild DEVILS back and turn him
loose, and we will chase her on OF the
island and save somebody the trouble
Of Staying her"
This remarkable language was re-
ceived with shouts and laughter, and
the next moment a dozen or more OF
these fends were hurrahing and bind
ing the terrified girl to the little less
terrified horse. Before Miss Monica
realized what her tormentors were do
ing one of the wretches cut the rope
that was about the horses neck and
fired a pistol. The frightened animal
sprang into the air and struck the
earth a-running. Pistol balls rained
about him, but, unframed, he seemed
to sail above the earth with the wind,
and was soon beyond the reach OF the
guerrillas. For the first few moments
Miss Monica says that she had little
hope of escaping with her life, bat
when she had recovered breath ard
