ROMANCE OF A RANGE,
Rough Rider Finds Out Too Late
His Sweetheart's Loyalty
Killed by Grief.

A sad romance was lately disclosed
which occurred in the Indian territory,
south of Independence, Kan, and has
for its foundation the enlistment of
Roosevelt's rough riders.
Troop L of the famous rough riders
was enlisted at Muscogee, !. T., and
among the boys who bade that country
farewell and went to seek the fortunes
of war was Dan Seabright, cowboy,
who had ridden the plains for years
and had grown to fear nothing. He
had won the heart of Mary Sedwick.
and they were to be married when Dan
returned from the war.
Seabright was with the rough riders
all the time during their famous cam
paign in Cuba, taking part in the battle
of Las Quasimas and the charge up San
Juan hill. For the bravery displayed in
these battles he was promoted to heu-
tenant, and was recognized as one of
the bravest men Roosevelt had in his
command.
Mary Sedwick had brother, Rob.
who was also with the rough riders, but
he and Seabright never met after they
landed in Cuba, as they were in differ
ent companies. Under the terrible fire
poured into our troops in the charge up
San Juan hill, Rob Sedwick fell,
pierced through the heart by a Mauser
bullet. Before he died he had received
word that cousin of his, Agnes Sed-
wick, who also lived in the Indian ter
ritory, had married prominent cattle
man.
Some time after young Sedwick's
death Seabright heard of this, but was
informed that it was Mary Sedwick,
the girl who had promised TO marry
him when he had returned from the
war, that had been married.
The young soldier overcome with
grief, seemed to lose all his ambition
brooding over the supposed unfaithful-
ness of the girl he loved. When he came
home he went to Texas and later fur
ther west, and he did not have the heart
to return to the community where his
old sweetheart had lived.
During the first annual reunion of
Thorough riders of the Indian territory,
at Pryor creek, Seabright learned for
the first time that his sweetheart was
still true to him. and was mourning be-
cause her soldier lover had not re-
turned to her. Dependency had
her strong. robust figure, and
death was expected at any moment.
at once set out, with COM
panion, for his sweetheart's home. ten
miles away. Soon the two riders drew
up and Seabright hurriedly dismount-
I'd. He stepped to the door and
knocked. The aged mother opened the
door, and her tear-stained eyes told too
plainly that sorrow had come to the
little home.
Us Mary homes" eagerly inquired
Dan. The mother turned her tear-be-
eyes back into the room and |
thea spoke with difficulty:
Mary said to tell you, Dan, that she |
bed waited for yon as long as she could.
She died few hours afo.e

AMONG THE BEST OF DIVERS
corean Women who Make a nusi-,
ness OF diving for the
Pearl oyster.

7 A Brooklyn man lately received let
ter from friend in Seoul, the capital Of
.Corea, describing visit the writer had
recently paid to the large island of
Quelpaert, just south of Corea and
part of that country. 1t appears that
one Of the main lines Of business is div-
ing for the pearl oyster and that the
diving operations are wholly monopo-
lized by women. .Here IS an extract
from the letter:
II think the most unique slghtI ever
saw was the women divers at Quel-
paert. Perhaps you may have heard
that only women divers are engaged in
the pearl oyster fisheries there. Every
day / was there / saw lot of them go
ing out TO their work or returning
with the fruits of their quest under the
sea. They are not very handsome
crowd. but they have fine, supple fig
ures and can swim as well as any fish
of the deep. Each wears very scanty
bathing dress that looks as though it
might have been made of gunny sack.
Tied to a string around their waists is
gourd with a stopper in the neck of
it to keep the water out. Tied to the
gourd is little bag. The third and
last article of the equipment is a sickle,
which is also fastened to the waist and
rests on the back till the women getout
to the fishing grounds.
"You might think that boats would
be kept to carry these women out to
their toll, but no, they work their pas
sage and it is lesson in the art of swim
ming to see them. They wade out few
yards and then breast the waves, NOV
ing seaward with long, quick strokes,
and cutting the water like a racing
shell. They swim out about half d
mile. My favorite amusement was
watching as much as l could see of
their subsequent operations through
glass. They would take off the gourd
and the little bag and leave them float
ing around ON the surface. Then, sickle
in hand, down they would go, head first,
and I was told that they had to sink
40 or so feet to the bottom.
"About the time / made up my mind
they would never be seen again alive,
up they would come, sometimes right
near where the gourd was floating
and sometimes several rods away They
would put their oysters, or two or three
of them, in the little bag, take few
long breaths, and down they would go
again, repeating the process until the
bag was filled. 1t is said they will stay
out for hours rather than return before
they have all the oysters that can be
crowded into the bag. Any stranger
must admire them, both for their splen-
did endurance and for their swimming.
It's worth more than all the tank per-
formances you ever saw.
''The sickles are used to cut away the |
seaweed at the bottom so that the
divers may get at the stones and earth
to which the oysters fasten themselves.
pearl is very rarely found, but when
a diver captures the prize she thinks
her fortune is made. The she'll is used
as mother of pearl and the oysters are
eaten in large quantities both on the
island and on the mainland" st. Louis
Globe-Democrat.

THE CONTESTS AGAIN.

Our readers will doubtless be glad to
see that the guessing contests begin
with this issue. There are but two
changes in the rules, children under
twelve are not allowed to guess and the
coupon must be used within a week af-
ter the date of publication. Now guess
early and often, the early bird catches
the worm. We are confident that now
the people have caught the idea there
will be many more guesses made than
there we're last month.
Use yous coupons yourself, they may
be of much value to you. Use your own
judgment in estimating the various jars
and you have good opportunity to
win.

q MUSICAL TREAT.
The Orchestra Concert Success in Spite OF
the Cold Weather.

i.is orchestra Concert Success in Spite OF
the Cold Weather.
iIgAIhe Denison orchestra covered itself
with honor Wednesday night. The
bonse WAS We'll filled. but it was en-
tlrely too cold for comfort and audience
and players shivered and shook
throughout The entire program. The
opera house management should put
IN good heating plant at once if they
wish people to patron,ze it during the
cold weather. Everyone realized that
1t was not the boys fault, and we fancy
they were glad of an opportunity to APP
plaud, not only to express their APP
prevail but to keep their hands warm.
The concert began with lively
march which was splendldly executed
and there was not break in the entire
program, The music played was of a
difficult nature and the manner in
which it was rendered showed how
we'll Directors had instructed
his forces. The descriptive piece, 1.-The
Mill in the Forest with it's touch of
realism in the sound of the turning
water wheel and the sweet songs of the
birds was highly appreciated. One of
the most effective numbers was the
cornet solo by A. III. Brown. This was
a beautiful selection and Mr. Brown
added fresh laurels to his musical rep
utation. He went through the musical
acrobatics so dear to the heart of every
cornetist with the ease of a master and
the echo part was simply perfection.
He was enthusiastically encored. The
obligata solos played at various times
by the comets, clarinets and violins
were noticeable for their excellence.
Two vocal numbers were given; the
firsta quintette by Messrs. Boynton,
McHenry, Cassaday, Sibbert and Glib
son, in which DR.. Gibspn's splendid
basso took the solo part while the quar-
tette gave human banjo accompani-
ment, was very fine. The best vocal
work was done by the qnariette con-
sisting of Sibbert, Cassauay. McHenry
and Gibson in their SELECTION Until
the Dawn J" In this the qnarlette fair
ly excelled itself, and in all the concerts
by imported qnartettes which we have
had this winter, no finer, and more
harmonious singing has been done.
The orchestra boys were we'll pleased
with the large attendance, but were
much chagrined at the cold reception
they were obliged to give. They
promise that in about a month they
will give another concert for which
very nominal admission will be charged
in order to show their appreciation. and
to let the people know just what good
work they can do under favorable cir
cumstances. We learn that the or
chestra is contemplating giving a con-
cert in Carroll, and If they do we can
assure the music lovers of that place a
very fine entertainment.
