urday night at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Waytkosky, of 400 War;

on Friday night. and the remains were
laid out in a pretty coffin in the front

The father made a frantic effort to
eXtinguish the flames, but did not sue

ITALY GIVES US A HINT.
What Her Five Fast Battleships Could
Do TO This Country.
(To be continued.)

What Her Five Fast Battleships Could
DO TO This Country.
We are not accustomed to consider
Italy very much of naval power; yet
the five battleships of 20 knots and
better that she has built or building
might make us endless trouble If we
were so unfortunate as to have them
against us. They could range our
whole coast, destroying everything
afloat except our battleships and our
fastest cruisers, and remaining them
selves in absolute obscurity. They
could cut off all trade between the Uni
ted States, Cuba and Porto Rico. They
aragua canal, if that were finished.
They could go through the Suez canal
harry our naval force at Manila and
rekindle the instruction in the Phil
ippines. They could loot our coaling
station at Tutuila, carry off our gov
did to the Spaniards, and wreck our
trade with Hawaii. They could devas-
tate our Pacific coast, ruin the shore
mines at Nome and capture the gold
feet from Alaska. No battleships that
we could send in pursuit of them could
catch them. The only things with
which We could hope to bring them to
an engagement would be our new ar
mored cruisers. and It might be that
these commerce destroyers, without a
gun heavier than efght-inch, and with
only six inches of armor, but with the
all-important quality of speed, would
save us from a danger before which
our ponderous battleships would lie
helpless.-New York Journal.

thing in this request of his to have the
execution of Salvarez delayed till mid
night that makes me doubt him. The
change from daylight to darkness was
significant. With this suspicion in my
mind, took the trouble to learn whom
he had chosen to form the firing squad.
They are, to man, picked friends of
his. There is some treachery afoot,
you may be sure. Could it be possible
that he has promised to let Salvarez
escape, to gain the girls lover"
'It could be done if Francisco wished
to do it,
But he must not be allowed to do it.
1t must be your work to take a dozen
of your men-men who are not friend
ly to Francisco-and watch, without
being watched That is, secrete your
selves some time before midnight
where you can see the execution. Give
Francisco plenty of time to prove his
treachery. If he allows Salvarez to es-
cape, see that the rebel general is at
once killed and arrest Francisco and
bring him before the king"
THAT is easily DONE"
Then do it,"
81 will"
And keep your own counsel. Do
not allow Francisco to know that we
suspect him."
"You may trust me-" said the cap
tain, as he went out.
While all this had been going on,
two forms were crouching close to the
sliding panel that separated them from
the council room, and every word ut

When the captain had gone, one of
the crouching figures made sign and
crept noiselessly away. The other fol-
lowed him. In a moment they ha de-
scended the stone stairs to the caverns
under the castle.
WELL" said Tempest, the thing
gets hotter and hotter. Bat We have
something to do"
What is it?"
"Salvarez must be saved"
"Salvarez! lie ought to be, but
howe"
Il do not know yet We know what
room he is in. In some way he must
be told of this scheme of Gomez's
Come what may, Salvarez must be
saved"
