hous. IN New York and it is asserted
that the anti trust ablishment to sup
ply this city will be in full operation by
next January.
George j. Losier, a prominent member
OF the association. was able to give
definite idea of the way in which a gen.
eral fight against the trust could be car
ried on.
He had just returned from Philadel-
phia where the Retail Butchers associa-
ton had raised 100000 to estab ish in
dependent slaughter houses. The same
action is assured in Butfa o, Boston, Ciu-
cinuati, Cleveland, St. Louis, and all the
principal cities of the country. The re-
tail dealers all agree to stand by the
New York combination in fighting the
trust
One reason why Rockefeller may take
a promir ent part in the fight, as was sx
planned last night, is that Cudahy one Of
the "Big Five,' gave the Standard Oil
magnate great deal of trouble in the
oil business few ,ears ago and Mr.
Rockefeller would be glad OF this chance
to even up the old score with the Chic
ago packer.

picturesque garden stretching between
the broad and beautiful Chiaja and the
Incompatible Bay of Naples.
San MARITIME looked down from the
hill behind; Capri lay a bright dot on
the blue water, and flashed, as the sun
went down, like diamond set On a
mirror Of ruby and sapphire. The black
murderer of Pompeii and Herculaneum
drew royal Tyrian mantle about his
rugged sides and shrank away in the
deepening gloom till only his grim,
lava shadow stood In the cleaning

10000 lamps flashed out, enhancing its
marvellous beauty.
Even the walters seemed happy Us
they dispensed the delicious creams
and fragrant coffee to those sitting at
the tables. From the grand pavilion
one of the finest of italian orchestras
rendered such music as might almost
have thrilled the frozen souls of the
marble gods and goddesses.
In the extravaganza of dreams Rob
ert Stanton dreamed, not of the home
that would be, but of the home that
might be- He dreamed Of Esther
Thorndike there, his wife-hia real
wife.
Suddenly the bankers daughter
usurped the place, and tho home
changed to his Office. He heard her
voice. He saw her eyes.
"She Is here" he muttered, and, turn
Ing as though some one had spoken, he
looked, as he knew that he should look,
directly into her eyes. And yet it
caught his breath, and for a moment
he could not move.
Her father was beside her, at one Of
the little tables. he was listening to
the music.
She seemed unconscious, almost as
though asleep and dreaming, dream
Ing some delightful dream from which
IL would be cruelty to rouse her.
For a moment Stanton's very life
seemed to stand still-as a boat at the
vortex of the Norwegian pool stops
for an instant, shoulders, draws back
a handbreadth, then plunges and is en-
quilted. And the whirling pool was
those flashing eyes.
1t would have been easy to make the
plunge. It required a superhuman
struggle to drag himself back from the
spell.
This is not asking her to help me
win my wife," he muttered. Grinding

Wells dived beneath the table, brought

his feet. ''T arm loose the dog, gran paw, or

the scattered jacals of Fort McKavett and
headed out for the open prairie. 1t was

Wells had freshly risen from an unappetiz-

rest of mankind were happily preparing for
the holiday festivities; angry at the abomin-

the world at large and-just at that moment
with the disreputable looking "Greaser'

"But to-night-to-night before 1 sleep,

1t was impossible to sit there, yet he
would not have her think that she drove

preparations for departure; but when,
