For even a troop ship may have one.

daughter of the lieutenant colonel COM

aboard ship knew it, including. of course.
the damsel herself who was only Is and
just out of school. Nobody knew whether
she cared for Blair in return, she herself
didn't know. She had had a most ro-
mantle parting with the brother of her
pet schoolmate and chum. The girls
had cried their eyes out, and Brother
Fred had looked woebegone. Kate
Logan supposed, of course. that pretty
Maud Layton was fascinated with Fred
and would never think of wedding an
other. Yet by the time they stopped at
Gibraltar Maudie was the picture of
health and happiness as she trotted
about the Rock on the arm of Mr.. Blair.
AT SueZ she saw he wouldn't go ashore
because she didn't. At Singapore she
knew his story by heart. and was full of
pity. which, being akin to love, we'll nigh
settled the matter, and the night they
had reached Mania and heard that there
had been sharp fighting and the Fiftieth
was needed at the front without delay,
there was banished the last shadow Of
doubt, only she hadn't the vestige of
a chance to say so. for with the very
first load for shore went Lieutenant
Blair-a shrewd move that or the part
OF the colonel-and not for six months
thereafter laid she eyes on him.
Meantime came lots of Logan letters

SORROWS OF THE RICH AND
GREAT.

Pity the sorrows of the poor rich and
the wretched who are placed in high sta
tions! The Duchess of Argyle wrote the
other day to the emperors, kings, princes
and princesses of Europe, asking them
whom they envied in this world of sor-
rows. The replies Whicn she received
are heartrending. One can almost see
the tear stains between the lines or fancy
the signs and sobs at the end of each
period. First comes comes the prince of
Wales with the following dismal wall:
Il envy the man to whom it is permitted
to be slightly indisposed without the fact
being put in to thiss shape and spread all
over the papers of Europe: His High
ness is seriously ill-Who can breakfast
in peace without the announcement in
the newspapers, His Tiighness ate with
a good appetite'-and who can go to the
races without finding the next morning
in the same papers, His Highness bet
heavily In a word, I W. the man who
Belongs to the family alone, and whose
movements are not watched and falsely
interpreted"
From the Princess Charles of Denmark
comes the following: when I Ear take a
ride on my bicycle, and afterward devote
myself entirely to my own family affairs.
I envy nobody. But when I have to be
her Royal Highness, I envy everybody"
Emperor William II gives this melan-
choly. but bold reply, poorly calculated to
please the sans-patrie: "There is only one
man in the world that I do not envy, and
that is the rascal who does not love his
country"
From Emperor Francis Joseph comes
this answer. doubtless written in the tone
of a sigh. whatever that may be: Il envy

A DIAMOND.

There is an easy simple way to tell If
a diamond is genuine. Make a small dot
on a piece of paper with a lead pencil,
and look at it through the diamond. If
it shows but a single dot, the diamond is
genuine. If it shows more than one, or
the mark appears scattered, it is false, no
matter what it cost.

A Fine Lecture.

The lecture by Rev. kirkland
Saturday night in the church was
well attended and proved very
interesting. Frequently the au-
dience was convulsed in laughter
and then in minute or two stilled
by his eloquence until pin il
dropped could be heard. His
remedy for the ills and discord
seen In many cases of married life
was the lack of honesty in court
ship, and this lesson was indelibly
impressed on the minds of
young gentlemen and ladies pres
ent. By request the lecture will
be given in Bijop Basin tonight,
in kiowa tomorrow night and at
the James school house Saturday
night.

Valuable Horse Stolen in South

Bijou Basin.

The Denver Republican of
Tuesday publishes the following
dispatch:
FLORENCE, Colo, Jan 20.-
In November n fine brood mare
was stolen from the barns of the
Florence Oil Company in this city.
The matter was placed in the
hands of Officers Mooney and
Harris who succeeded in locating
the animal and thief east of Monu-
ment in Elbert county last Friday.
Mr.. Mooney went there and found
the horse in the pasture of one
Henry Jameson. The thief he
learned had gone to Denver. Mr..
Mooney followed and arrested
him at Overland Park, Denver,
yesterday. The man proved to
be John Berely, a horseman, who
had formerly owned the mare In
California. He first denied his
identity, but admitted his name
was Berely when confronted WIFE
the facts in Officer Moneys pos
session. Mr.. Mooney arrived
here last night with the prisoner
and placed him in the city jail
He was arraigned to-day before
Justice Lockhard where he plead
guilty to the charge of entering the
barn and taking the mare, ana
was bound over to the District
court in the sum of 200, which
bail he was unable to furnish, SO
he was taken to the county jail at
Canon City this evening.

Returned from
The Grave

10 tho great surprise and graft
hcation of his father and many
friends in Ebert county Cal.
Elliott, who for more than two
years has been mourned as dead
stepped off tho train Sunday eve
ning the personification of health,
and after shaking hands with
numerous old acquaintances went
out to the paternal roof at the
saw-mill there to meet his father.
Cal left Elbert nine years ago,
irifting into the mountains and
later to the Red River country in
New Mexico. The last heari of
him was three years ago at Red
River and his friends there said he
had gone to the vicinity of Cripple
Greek to accept a job in saw
mill. About this time boiler
in asaw-mill there blew up and
two men, one of whom answered
the description of Mr.. Elliott,
were instantly killed.
MI. L. B. Elliott, the father,
advertised though this paper for
any information concerning his
son, requesting Colorado and New
Mexico newspapers to copy, but
but no news ever came and he
finally concluded one of the men
killed in the Cripple Creek ex-
plosion was his son and was on
the eve of erecting a monument at
the grave.
Cal says he did not 60 to
Cripple Creek, but has spent the
past three years in Arizona and
New Mexico mining and lumber
ing, frequently changing his place
of residence, the last year living
in Ration, N. M. He knew moth
ing of the efforts to find him,
though he has taken a Denver
paper most of the time. He
simply neglected TO write.
Cal is glad to get back among
old friends and may conclude to
remain.
