took 2 chastc2cd luster like that of wet silk, and here and there along it's edges or on the Hanks of t..e TO- bust and tlarl1cling mountains, multioclored villas gloamel fortE in fairy-lil-c Proflaion. each witk it's cng;rdiag garden riot of bloom. Directly baforc' hla, and only few hundred yards away, Alonzo perceived c throng of ladies and gentlemen cp- preaching. In the dinner yet clearer air he could discern that the feminine shapes were winso1ne, rich of garb, and that the masculine ones betrayed in their way an equal elegance.
 Confident that this dainty multitude meant the sovereign and his attendant courticrs, Alonzo drew backward, and in q turmoil of sharp embarrassment grasped the arm of his friend.

which clung to either of their westward slopes and wrought ncbulous effect of two celestial stairways. The valley, thus dreamily and nIagnifccntly bas- toned, lay bathed in glory, quiet yet intense. You seemed to look within the gates of paradise, and past them also where heavenly meadowlands drcwsed and brOodcd. Alonzo, almost drunken with the beauty of his environments, had scarce ly noted that figures on the hard clear cut walk which he and Erie traversed were passing in groups or pairs.
 And this, he at length faltered, ''is Saltravia. You have often told me of it's beauty, but"
 ''Oh, this is nothing" broke in Erics cool and pleasant voice. ''One gets these effects in other places. Our sen sets here arc apt to be q little sensation al. I'm cnvious of them. They inter- ferc with my architectural improve Taents. Dear boy. don't lose your head; your positively gasping.''
 ''Oh, let me gasp!" exclaimed Alonzo ''It'a such q l1eenly novel feeling in such a cause"
 ''Ah, but that emotion is premature" objected his friend. You have not vet seen SaltrG7ia in all it's fine reality. resent that sunset. It destroys values, as you artists would say. What a pity that one cannot suppress a sunset when it becomes too sanguinary, just as if it were 9 rebelliO1.''
 ''I}ut you never have rebellions in Saltravia," said Al0nzo.
 NO; they're quite too fond of the king. I can imagine revolution here, but it would be conducted or principles wholly artistic"
 "Oh, Erie, Eric." cried Alonzo. ''yOu'rc not q bit changed. You're pre- eisely as if we had met yesterday. Who but you could have thought of an artis- tic revolution?"
 Eric, who had a pale, calm, strong featured face, and who often said his most surprising things without the yes tige of q smile, now answered in very serious tones:
 ''I assure you, my dear Long, that the picturcsqucncss of raassacrc, without it's upplcasa2t qualities, such as the actual taking of human life, could be cultivated in 3 sort of fcte with striking success. The Athenians performed tnelr tra@edleS Tn the open air; why should not we Saltravians, in larger way, repeat bloodlcssly some of the great epochs of history? Let IS talk to the king about it. He is coming to meet you He is very receptive, you will find, to all original idcas. If you and he do not swiftly like one another I shall be pierced with disappointment.
 ''The king coming to meet mel starl- mered Alonzo. 80 soon? IT am not prepared for an audience with his maj esty.'

in continual increase of greeting. But the light-built station, shaped with airiest delicaey, brought him greeting dearcr still. Erie TEaztcr graspcd his hand before he had taken ton steps,.
 ''Dcar old Eric!'' he said; '.vol1 look just the same. Big and handsome and yellow-bearded as cver.''
 Erie smiled, and pressed his friends hand with vigor that brought back the atclier days in Paris, not to mention hours of merry abandonment in the boulevard Saint Michel.
 ''Dont think of your luggage" said Eric. All will be attended to-" He caught from his friends hand the vouchers held there. Come" he con- tir2ued. after fleeting converse with two Iivcried servants. In another instant he had thrown an arm about Alonzos neck, while they walked onward to- together.
 Ut seems so natural to meet you here in Saltravia,'' he said. Ut is like hay ing tho moon rise, or the breeze blow. For an surc you will like it here, un- less the weather becomes rebcllious.''
 One would say" murcnurcd Alonzo, looking about him, that the skies were always kind to so enchanting a spot as this.''
 ''So you like it?" flashed Erie Thax- ter. II was sure you would
 Like it? Are we near c railway sta tion?"
 ''Yes, my friend; but did you observe the tunnel as you approached? It is three miles long"
 'You call it tunncl?'
 Well, causcway, if you prefer. In any case, our trains plunge through the valley with kind of sleepy ferccness. It is the kings doing And if you will east your eye backward along the route of the railway by which you have just come, you will see nothing but a series of undulant green entertainments, ablaze with spots of the choicest flow ers.''
 ''Exquisite!' said Alonzo. But one has lovclier things to look at here" he added, throwing his gaze to the right and left, and then letting it dwell in luiet ecstasy on the prospect that frontcd him.
 shall we drive to your lodgings, or shall we wall,?'' sounded Eric,s voice.
 Drive? wall1?" fell from his nearer, in dazcd monotone.
 After all it's bat a step" pursued the guide. And you really like Saltravia, then? was sure you would."
 Like it!'' faltcred Alonzo.
 He had not yet made up his mind whether he was in town or country. No one ever did who first came to this magic little region. True there were 10 sidewalks, no pavcments. ButrOads and paths that looked like huge and endless white ribbons were bordercd by villas of fairy-like fragility and yet often of spacious exterior Like an in ncnae curved sword flung down upon he velvet sweeps of turf, . river blazed below the dying splendors of sunset. And such sunset! It was seen below TWO towering mountains whose peaks melted in purple and golden cloud,

 Live News Taken From Territorial Exchanges.

Smith boarded a box car and came to
 this city. The officers found them
 wandering about the streets on Monday
 and sent them to the station. Chief
 Glass is favCrably impressed with the appearance Of the Smith boy and has
 decided to stake" him to newspapers today, which will enable the boy to make 9 small amount of money until a home will have been secured for him. Smith said his father wsnt 10 Jerome, Arizona, to work in a mine.
 There are a number of runors afloat concerning large mining deals the truth Of which is not easily reached. The Farrell purchase of the Extension claims from C.. w Hull was given prominence in last weeks issue. There are those who claim that w. A. Clark is the real purchaser. This is given color from the fact that Farrell is closely connected in business with Clark, and further that the Verde Cop per company is preparing to pump wa ter to their plant from the large spring on the Extension group. The report that the Equator lawsuit has been set tied lacks confirmation. The report is to the effect that the property has been divided by compromise, MT. Clark tak- ing one-third of the property, while the parties backing John Duke the remain der. MT. Clark is to extend his rail- road to the Equato: mine and have 300 men at work 'by the first of June. Mir. Dukes people will extend the Saginaw Southern from Williams to the mine. Jerome Reporter.
