City OF Mexico, Dec. about a
year ago robbers entered the house OF
an elderly woman named Velasquez,
and her widowed daughter, Sonora
Campello, and, it is charged, stole $50
900. The police arrested five men, who
were tried and sentenced to prison for
long terms.
1t now appears the affair was a plot
to prevent the money being left to a
church. 1t is alleged a woman, who is
member of Sonora Velasquez' family,
planned the robbery, employing a
friend, under promise of reward, to
get men to pretend to steal the money
The robbers penetrated the house and
secured small amount of money and
lewelry, the larger sum. having been
hidden. One of the men who was en-
ployed to engineer the supposed steal,
not receiving the reward, confessed,
and this led to the police searching the
house and finding the $4,000. The
money was taken away and deposited
in the National Bank of Mexico. The
men now in prison expect a new trial
and mitigated sentences. The woman
Who is said to have planned the rob-
berry has been arrested and will be
further questioned. Sensational devel-
opments are expected.

Senator Henry Heitfeld of this state
has addressed a letter to D. H. Andrews
of this city, chairman of the populist
state central committee, announcing
his withdrawal from the populist party
and his affiliation with the democratic
party. The letter says both democratic
and peoples parties now are striving
for the same purpose and should COM

state committee together, expressing
the hope that it will approve his action
and unite with him in an afiliation
with the dominant element of the DEM
ocratic party. Chairman Andrews in
dicated that he did not approve Of
Senator Heitfeld's action, and that he
would reply to the senator's letter in

'empest's Flight

extent of the. disaster that had come
upon him. THE water rising rapidly,

gone and left me. What am to do, I'd
like to know"
He raised his voice to it's full vol
ume and shouted Medworth's name
but had he possessed twice the lung
power he could not have made himself
heard on the boat that was being rap
idly borne away in the darkness.
He scrambled back to the highest
point of land along the river, the top
of the sloping side that led down to
the waters edge when the river was at
it's proper level, and here, just above
the flood that was rising to meet him,
he stood a moment to collect his scat
tered senses. If he wished to live it
was plain that he must think quickly
and to some purpose, and to act as
quickly. His first thought was to re-
turn to the secret passage. 1t sudden
ly occurred to him that he had no
weapon. But in great emergencies,
when Tempest was obliged to think
quickly, he acquitted himself credit
ably. 1t was so in this instance, as it
had been in many others all over the
world.
First" he muttered to himself, "I
will make His Royal Nibs a visit and
see if I can borrow q gun. Then I'll
borrow horse and get away to a
higher country, for, if I am not much
mistaken, this part will be entirely
under water in twenty hours more.''
Upon reaching this conclusion he
did not hesitate, but plunged through
the increasing depth of water that was
pouring in through the entrance to
the caverns. and floundered through
the swash toward the lantern that still
hung high up where the water would
not reach it for few hours at least
He hurried up the stone steps to the
sliding panel.
Putting his ear to this, he heard
voices. At first they were low and in
distinct, and Tempest could not hear
the words. But a heavy footstep
sounded, and then he heard the we'll
known voice of Gomez.
"By all the saints" he exclaimed.
"This is a wet kingdom of yours.

MedWorth took his knife from his
pocket and severed the rope.
With mighty rush the boat swung
down stream and across it, bringing
up with a crash against the opposite
bank, short distance below the Sc
cret passage.
"Hurray!" shouted Tempest. "If we
can wind I'D forty feet of rope we can
bring it to the entrance"
They entered the deck-house and
round that with only one mooring the
boat moved against the stream as
easily as across the current. Ten min
utes of hard work brought them to the
mouth of the caverns.
Without hesitating, Medworth leaped

Between them they assisted Dona
Maria aboard the flatboat and then
lifted Jacinta out of the water and
placed her by her mothers side.
Just then terrific gust of wind
dashed the water into increaeed fury;
the strain on the rope was doubled,
and it snapped. The boat was hurled
away down the Coroni, leaving Tenn
pest standing in the darkness, up to
his waist in the rushing waters.

Row with Sarah Bernhardt.
Mile. Sardou, daughter of the dram
atlst and academician, was married
recently at st. Augustin, Paris. to
Comte Robert de Flers, a member of
an old French family and dramatist
and critic. The President sent his
son, M. Paul Loubet, to express his
good wishes. NJ. Victorien Sardou was
himself married under the most ro-
mantle circumstances. AS a young
man he worked and starved in a gar
ret, and disappointment preyed upon
his nerves till he fell i'll. A young
actress, Mile de Brecourt, took COM
passion upon him, nursed him back
to health, and introduced his work to
the famous actress, Dejazet, through
whom he was first acted. Sardou fell
in love with and married his benefac-
tress, whose death, ten years later,
was the one great sorrow of his life,
Sardou has made more money than
any other dramatist, and he is prob

The Cold Stronghold Captured.

The readers of The Commoner know
and Buclsner ticket carried but one pre-
cinct in the United States, namely,
Dudley township, in Haskell county,
Kansas. The vote there stood: Palmer
and Bucl1ner, 3; Mckinley and Hobart,
2; Bryan and Sewall, L. A reader of
The Commoner sends in q statement
signed by the county clerk of that
county to the effect tina Dudley town
ship went democratic this year by
majority of seven.
The attention of the Chicago Chron-
icle, the New York World, the Louis
vile Courier-Journal and other gold
standard papers is called to this fact.
While they are pointing with PRIDE
to victories won by the reorganizers,
let them view with alarm the recap
ture of this gold standard stronghold,
which became so conspicuous five years
ago.
The gold standard papers have mag
nified every victory which the reorgan-
izers have won since 1896, now let them
bow in humiliation over the sweeping
defeat that has robbed them of the only
precinct which their party has ever
carried.
Ordinarily the change of a precinct
would not be Il matter of national sig
nihcance, but the change of the only
precinct that the Palmer and Buc!lner
ticket carried is certainly serious
blow to the men who carried on that
unique campaign of fraud and decep-
tioa. The men who did the most talk
n for Palmer and Buclner voted the
republican ticket. as did all whom they
could secretly influence. The reorgan-
lzers are being led by those who either
voted for the ticket that carried but
one precinct, or pretended to support
1T while they voted the republican
ticket. What will the democratic par
ty be if they secure control of the or
ganization? What promise of relief
can the party give to the people at
large if the policies of the party are
controlled by boilers who have shown
no repentance since 1896? What hope
of victory can we have under the lead
ship of those who conducted the Palmer
and BuclSner party to SO disastrous
defeat?
Brother Watterson's destiny doctrine
seems to have a reversible attachment.
He is not willing to accept the presi-
dents action in the Booker Washing
ton case as ii final decree of Providence.
Is it possible that destiny must have
the initials of the Courier-Journals
editor blown in the bottle in order 20
be genuine?

After few more words they left the
council room together. Tempest lis
tened carefully to the receding foot
steps and waited even after they had
died away to learn if any one had been
left
Hearing nothing, he cautiously slid
back the panel and peered inside the
room.
Finding no one there, he stealthily
crept inside and glanced hastily around
for a weapon.
mo gum" he muttered. ''Not even
pistol"
Then he CHANGED to look down at the
table.
There, lying upon map that had
been stained by dripping blood, was
the knife that had been taken from the
dead sentinel
"Ah, the knife!" said Tempest.
We'll, if this is all, it must be made to
do"
Hastily selling it, he crept again
through the aperture, closed the panel
carefully and went down into the I'M
derground passage and out in the ter
rible torrent.
Above the storm he heard a shrill
scream as of a horse in mortal terror.
and blindly following the sound as
well as he was able to locate it, he
soon found himself at the stables.
The stables upon which he had come
were not the well-kept stables where
the family horses of Salvarez were
kept, but the sheds of the artillery and
cavalry beasts. They consisted of lit
tie more than a long, peaked roof with
outreaching caves, supported by strong
posts. Under this roof the horses stood
tied in rows.
Tempest plunged in among them and
holding the lantern to light his way,
severed the leather halters with quick
strokes Of his knife, and set the horses,
one after another, free.
This took him some time, and his
arm was weary when he had finished.
When there was but one horse left,
he flung himself upon it's back, and,
cutting the halter, clung to it's name.
giving it perfect liberty to go where it
would.
And with an abiding faith in the sa-
gacity of the beasts he had liberated.
Tempest clung tenaciously to his posi-
ton and was borne swiftly over the
marshy, storm-beaten ground.
