CHAPTER XIII.

After Captain Sanford had taken his
departure Amelia sobbed for a moment,
then, taking from hex pocket a bit Of
paper, she read:
Don't fail to be at the old stone house
on the hill tonight; watch for the sig
nal"
She brushed the tears from her eyes
and heaved a hopeful sigh. For hours
that day she watched the old stone house
as if it was the only hope left. 1t stood
on the hill nearly a quarter of mile
away, and had been deserted since the
commencement of the war. Frequently
British outposts halted there OH their way
to and from the picket line. A light seen
there never excited suspicion, and when
the light cleaned from one of the win
dows for a few moments that night, no
one save Amelia dreamed it was a signal.
Hurriedly donning her wraps, she left
for the house unseen, and rapidly made
her way up the hill Oh which the deserted
building stood
With wildly beating heart she tapped
on the door.
There came the sound of footsteps NOV
ing within, and the next moment the door
was opened by man about fifty years
Of age, in the uniform of colonel in
the English army.
''Come in, dear child, and do not look
so frightened You will not be harmed"

swered. fixing her eyes on the kind face
which beamed upon her with look akin
to affection. The man had large blue
eyes, plain, open, honest countenance,
which indicated certain nobility of char

legislative Halls.

The Milwaukee officers Of the guard
are agitating the matter of a new armory
to house all the military organizations IN
Milwaukee. and it is possible that bill
for that purpose will be introduced.
The troublesome old question OF the eX
amption of wages has bobbed up to both
or the Legislature. At every session there
IS an attempt on the part OF the mer-
chants Of the State to get the amount or
the exemption reduced, while the work
ingmen fight either to keep it from pc
ing reduced or to get it increased. be
tween the two interests the member y
in a bad fix. He usually sides with the
workingman in the end.
TwosEbills had already become laws
several DAVIS ago. One was the measure
making an appropriation for the FUR
nishing of the new committee rooms ana
the other measure fixing the times Tor
holding court in the Sixteenth judicial
district Two years ago, on account Of
the senatorial contest, it was the middle
OF February before the first bill was
passed. The Legislature is ahead of the
last one in other respects, having larg-
er number of bills introduced than were
ia one the same date OF last year. Still,
the bills are coming in slowly.

Mechanically she obeyed his request,
and he proceeded to tell her how much
he had been interested in her since first
they had met, and that his was an old
and respectable family. He assured her
he was perfectly acceptable to her uncle,
and, after an assurance he would not be
happy without her, he fell upon his knees
and made a passionate appeal for her to
become his wife
She listened to him without the slight
est sign of emotion, and said:
Captain Sanford, hope you will
never mention this subject again. Politi-
cally we cannot be friends; socially, you
are not agreeable to me, and / will not
listen to your proposal of marriage"
Starting from his knees, the captain
said:
"Hold! Miss Harcourt, do not reject
my suit too hastily. Why should you?'
Il have told you / do not love you,
Captain Sanford"
Every well, you love another! Take it
for granted. He is the rebel spy now

She turned her hard, frozen features

so overmastering as when he saw it like

SENATOR HEirFELD.

Senator Heitfeld, as many ldahoans
believe, is lighting under two political
flags. In Washington, as il being told,
he is Il Democrat. In Idaho Popn-
list. For the senator's safe we trust
these reports are not correct. Even
the distance between Washington and
Idaho, 5000 miles, does not warrant
such a position before his constituency.
The senator should be hot or cold; he
should not be luke warm to any party.
The Good Book says no man can serve
two masters. The peoples faith in the
Good Book is very strong.
The senator's term expires in March
1903. The Legislature elected in 1902
will elect his successor. II he stand
for reelection ii will he before au Idaho
| legislature, not Washington legisla-
ture, aud If tuday's reports are true he
must stand or fall as u Popnlist. The
members OF the Legislature willvo for
him for what he is in Idaho, not for
what he may be in Washington.
| These conditions place the senator in
an anomalous position before the PEG,
Pile in the next campaigp. The Demo
Gratis cannot support him because he Is
a Poputist and the Populists cannot be
