OF the Gray Ranges.
At the bottom OF the gorge was
winding creek full of sand and huge
bowlders: but, from the luxuriant
growth OF the gum-trees which lined
IL. there could be no doubt but that an
ample supply of water was to be found
there.
Looking down upon these gums and
watties from that dizzy height, they
seemed to be no larger than cabbage

A queer teIegraphic correspondence
was carried on recently between the
capitals of Saxony, Bohemia and Rus
sia. Somebody or other in Dresden
had q maiden aunt who was taken
sick and died In a hospital at Prague
while on her way to Vienna. The
nephew was notified, and he telegraph
ed to the Prague hospital authorities
to send the body TO Dresden for en-
tombment in the family vault. When
the comm on its arrival was opened 1t
was found TO contain not the body OF
the aunt. but that OF a uniformed and
bedizened Russian general Immedi-
ately the nephew wired to Prague:
NO dead aunt. but Russian general.

From Prague came the reply:
II dead aunt not arrived. then Pc

The next telegram went to the rail
way authorities at st. Petersburg, and
read:
What do with dead Russian gen
eral? Where Is dead aunt:''
And from st. Petersburg was re-
ceived the characteristic reply:
Bury general In all silence. Aunt
just buried here with highest military
honors."

CHATTER XVIII

Jack Han claimed that right. and,
leaving his horse in charge OF one of
the troopers. he hunted about to try
TO hnd some safe place where he could
make the descent Presently he found
a zig-zag path which had evidently
been worn by human feet. and which
appeared to lead directly down to
where he had observed the smoke.
BY careful maneuvering he arrived
nearly at the bottom of the gully. and
he paused to make sure that his re-
yolyer was In readiness. Silently he
drew 1t from its sheath and examined
1t. Then he gently continued his way.

Then he heard more talking. hut he
was unable to distinguish what was

An hour passed. and the sun began tn

that night 1t must be done quickly; so,
creeping up on his hands and knees. he
at last regained his companions above.
Motioning TO them TO be silent he
withdrew the party to some little dis

and then told them all tina, he hna

having made them all safe, they each

scrub.
Some ten minutes elapsed. Then
cry broke the silence-it was the voice
of William Luke.
Hurrying down rather more quickly
than his companions. he had seen one
of the occupants of the hut standing
near the doorway.
The slamming to of door was
heard. and almost simultaneously the
trackers emerged upon the valley.
There was no further necessity for

NOT MUCH OF A LOVE MATCH.

Queen wuhslmiaa's Marriage Largely
Governed by Reasons Of STATE.
II has been widely heralded that the
engagement OF Hollands young queen
and the prince of wied Is one in which
love cuts more of ngure than any
thing else There Is very good reason
to believe that. while there may be
more affection between the two than
Is usually the case In royal mai riages,
reasons of state have as much to do
with the prospective union as anything
else. One OF these reasons hrs Just
been pointed out by a European au-
thority. The royal family and the
people OF Holland generally want to
avoid the possibility that by the mar
riage Of the young sovereign to a
prince of a ruling family It might hap
pen after some time that through In
heritanee a ruler of foreign country
might become also king of Holland.
This might easily happen II the young
queen should marry priece OF any
ruling European house. The Dutch
royal family and the people OF Hol-
land do not wish to repeat the expe-
riences which the country has had In
the past Such marriages were the
reasons for the Dutch war OF inde-
pendence in the sixteenth century. and
indirectly for the dividing Of Belgium
and Holland into two Kingdoms in
1882 Just such a consort AZ was de-
sired by the Dutch people IL found in
the prince of Wied. whose family is
absolutely without political influence
in Germany. During the dominance
of Napoleon In a large part of Euro
pean affairs the wieds were deprived
of their throne After the evacuation
of Germany by the French II was con
sidered best by the rulers OF all the
large German states not to restore
their thrones to the smaller princes.
included among whom we're the princes
of WED The former territory of the
wieds was therefore given to Prussia
in 1915. since when the princes OF Wied
have been Prussian subjects. with less
influence In Germany than many OF
the oldest noble families. Severthe-
less. the Wied family is considered to
be OF equal birth to the other royal
German families. Their title remains.
but that is all. as they have very small
family possessions. As Bulwer says.
The mate for beauty should be a
man, not a money chest" and when
the beauty is also queen this rule
should hold doubly good. The prince.
being an exceedingly presentable
young fellow and without any chance
OF bringing up complications such as
the cautious Hollanders feared. was
just the man to mate with her majes-
" Queen Wilhelmina. Hence his Sc
lection. His royal highness is poor.
but his wife will have enough for both,
and she is believed to know enough to
SO manage affairs that her royal con-
sort will be held in check should he
ever manifest such gay tendencies as
have characterized the ruler of the
neighboring kingdom OF Belgium.

OHIO MAN IN SENATE.
STANDS IN THE FRONT RANK
OF STATES.
Oas- Niath OF the Total Representatives
Natives Of Baeksys st.ts-Every Re-
pasaLeaa Fresidsst Except Lisesis
Boea In That State.

From the New York Sun: Although
of the total membership Of the United
States senate. its natives have one
ninth OF the total representation there
in. or ten of the ninety members OF
the senate Of the fifty- -hfth congress. a
larger number than has any other
state. These are the Ohio men in the
senate: Foraker. Hanna. Baker, Car
ter. Allen. Kyle. Elkins. Fairbanks.
Turpie and Allison. Senator Foraker
was born in Highland county. Senator
Hanna in Columbiana county, Senator
Baker of Kansas in Wood county. Sem
ator Carter of Montana In Scioto coun-
ty. Senator Allen of Nebraska in Mad

ginia In Perry county. Senator Fair
banks OF Indiana In Union county, SEN
ator Allison OF Iowa in Perry county.
and Senator Turpie OF Indiana in Ohio
Benerally-exact locality not given.
Senators Turpie and Allen are the
only ones of the ten United States SEN
ators born in Ohio whose terms are
TO be filled this winter by legislatures
elected in November last, and as the
former is a democrat and the latter a
populist, and as the legislatures OF
both states have a republican major
ity. some apprehension has been e1-
pressed by unsophisticated persons
that the state of Ohio might have lost
pn 10 81 -
in the senate OF the ffty-sixth congress
diminished representation. Such re-
suits. however. II is already seen, is
most improbable. for In the state OF
Indiana there is revival of the talk
among republicans TO send Benjamin
Harrison. native of Ohio, to the SEN
ate as the republican colleague OF
Senator Fairbanks, and at Ohio candi-
date has already appeared in the field
ceed Charles J. Faulkner. whose term
expires March T.
While from present appearances
therefore, the Ohio men seem likely
TO hold their present representation,
at least in the senate. there are sundry
Indications that In the ffty-sixth
house they will increase their already
generously large representation in the
nfty-fifth. in which there was one ma
tive Of Ohio in the California delega-
ton. three in the Illinois delegation,
two in the Indiana delegation. two in
the Iowa delegation, one in the Ken
lucky delegation. seventeen In the

ganization has been an Ohio man. and
any theory of American politics from

on a mistaken condition. Just how
