"What was it all about?"
"Nor could I see,' added her father.
II heard shouts and after we passed saw

"It is just as well-indeed, I'm glad
you didn't, uncle" answered Miss Law
renee, turning even as she spoke and
gazing wistfully back. 'IIe looked so
young, and seemed SO desperate, and
had such al don't know-hunted look
on his face-poor fellow"
And then the carriage reached the en-
trance to the reservation and the cub
ject, and the second object of Miss Law
rence's sympathies evoked that day,
were for the time forgotten. Possibly
Mrs. Garrison wass partly responsible
for this for hardly had they rounded
the bend in the road that brought them
in full view, from the left, or southern
flank, of the long line of masses in
which the brigade was formed, than
there came cantering up to them, all
gay good humor, all smiles and saucy
coquetry, their hostess of the evening at
the generals tent. She was mounted on
a sorry-looking horse, but the habit"
was a triumph of art, and it well became
her petite, rounded figure.
No one who really analysed Mrs.
Frank Garrison's features could say
that she was a pretty woman. No one
who looked merely at the general effect
when she was out for conquest could
deny it. Col. Armstrong, placidly OBJ
servant as usual, was quick to note the
glances that shot between the cousins
on the rear seat as the little lady came
blithely alongside. He knew her, and
saw that they were beginning to be as
wise as he, for the smiles with which
they greeted her were but wintry re-
Elections of those that beamed upon her
radiant face. Prime, paterfamilias,
bent cordially forward in welcome, but
her quick eyes had recognized the
fourth occupant by this time, and there
was a little less of assurance in her
manner from that instant.
How perfectly delicious!" she cried.

On Inishkea a particular family

The priest in whose parish Inishkea
lay either had not known of this sur

one else knew of it, but when the
thing was made public he decided to
act. So he visited the island, took the
Ne-ogue and broke it up into tiny frag.

winds. The priest was sacrosanct, but
the islanders vowed vengeance and an
unfortunate man of science who had
lived some time among them was
pitched upon az certainly the person
who had made. the story public. This

state Convention.

a.LEAtrtA W.
The Republican State Central Com
mittee met at Grand Forks pursuant
to call.
The first matter to engage the at
iention of the committee was to fix
the basis of representation at the
coming state conventions. The ques-
ton of basing the representation on
the vote for Mckinley in 1896 was dis
cussed, and the idea was abandoned
because of the phenomenal growth of
population in the northern and west
ern counties since that time. The
question then arose whether to use
the Spalding vote or the Fancher vote
of 1898, the latter being urged as a
means of disciplining counties like
Grand Forks, which had polled a big
vote for local democratic candidates.
A compromise was soon reached, and
it was unanimously agreed that the
representation should be based on the
average vote cast for congressman
and governor in 1898.
Each county is to have two dele
gates at large-although Mr.. Bartlett
and a few others thought it should
have been four-and one delegate for
each so votes or major. fraction there
of of the average vote.
1t was then arranged that the con.
vention to elect delegates to the ma.
tional convention be held on May 16
and the convention to select candi.
dates for state offices on July II. The
Grand Forks members were given
their choice of the two conventions
and chose the latter, the May conven'
ton going to Fargo.
The committee in it's call will an,
nounce that counties desiring to do SC
may elect delegates to both state con
v%entions at the same time.

a boomerang. 1t was true that two
days before, calling at Gordon's official
tent while several other officers were
present at an investigation then going

interested in the appearance and testi-

the meeting of the Republican state

.emphatically in favor of the establish
ment of a beet sugar factory some
where in North Dakota. A relative of
his operates q factory at Caro-, Mich,
which is a 100000 institution. The
factory has brought wealth to the en-
tire community, as not only has the
town increased in population, but the
value of farm property tributary has
more than quadrupled. The proprie-
tor of this factory is willing to start
a factory in North Dakota if he re-
ceives encouragement sufficient to
warrant him in making the outlay.
