Before this conversation WAS ended,
a rain began to fall, and it rapidly
thickened from desultory shower TO
a roaring downpour that effectuaily
quenched not only the fires around
which the savages were dancing, but
the enthusiasm of the dancers as We'll
During the rest of the afternoon and
all night long the fall was incessant,
accompanied by a cold, painting, wall
ing southwest wind.
Beverley lay on the ground. face up
ward, the rawhide strings torturinS his
limbs. the chill of cold water search
ing his bones. He could see nothing
but the dim. strange canopy OF lying
rain, against which the bare boughs
of the scrub oaks were vaguely out
lined: he could hear nothing but the cry
of the wind and the swash of the wa
ter which fell upon him and ran under
him. bubbling and gurgling as II fiend-
ishly exultant-
The night dragged on through its
terrible length, dealing out its indie
scribable horrors, and at last morning
arrived, with a stingy and uncertain
gift of light slowly increasing until
the dripping trees appeared forlorniy
gray and brown against clouds now
breaking into masses that gave but lit
tie rain
Beverley lived through the awful
trial and even had the hardihood TO
brighten inwardIy with the first flash
of sunlight that shot through cloud
crack on the eastern horizon. He
thought of Alice, as he had done all
night: but now the thought partook
somehow OF the glow yonder above old
Vincennes. although he could only see
it's reflection
There was great stir among the In
dams. Long Hair stalked about scru-
| tinizing the ground Beverley saw
| him come near time and again with
| hideous, inquiring scowl on his face
Grunts and laconic explanations pass
ed from mouth to mouth, and present.
| " the import of ii all could not be
mistaken. Kenton and JaZon were
gone-had escaped during the night
and the rain had completely obilt-
| Grated their tracks.
The Indians were furious. Long
Hair sent out picked parties of his
best scouts with orders to scour the
country in all directions, keeping with
! himself a few of the older warriors
! Beverley was fed what he would eat
| of veniSOn and Long-Hair made him
understand that he would have TO sui
fer some terrible punishment on ac-
| count of the action of his companions
Late in the day the scouts strag
gled back with the report that no tract
or sign of the fugitives had been dis
| covered. and Immediately a consulta
ton was held. Most of the warriors
including all of the young bucks. de
manded a torture entertainment a!
compensation for their exertions ant
the unexpected loss of their own pris
oners; for it had been agreed that Bev
erley belonged exclusively to Long
Hair. who objected to anything which
might deprive him of the great reward
offered by Hamilton for the prisone
if brought to him alive.
In the end it was agreed that Bev
erley should be made TO run the giant
let. provided that no deadly weapon
were used upon him during the or
deal.

WAR ON THE CuLEx.

l. LUSHING, LONG ISLAND, citizens
have organized an anti-mosquito
club with Down With the Culex" as
their slogan They include also in
their embargo the anopheles, vertical
and horizontal, no matter what its
music, and have issued a circular in
which the following occurs:
TT is not supposed that the com
mittee will undertake to eXterminate
all the mosquitoes on Long island. 1t
is proposed to deal with those around
US. These we expect to materially re-
duce in numbers. We expect every
good citizen to take care of his own
premises and will gladly tell him how
to do So
The Fiushingites propose to destroy
the mosquito by the introduction of
sanitary methods. mo stagnant
water" say they. Without water the
mosquito can't hatch. If a pool can
not be drained. then it may at least
be mixed with kerosene and the 300
eggs laid by each female cannot be
Matched. The appeal closes with these
fervent words:
There is no more reason why peo-
pie should suffer from mosquitoes than
they should suffer from fieas, lice and
like plaques. for it has been proven
that a locality can. be cleared of mos
quitoes at small cost by drainage and
the use of oil.
North America has but few varie-
ties of mosquitoes, those found on the
Atlantic seaboard being principally
Culex and Anopheles. The Anopheles
/ scientists are reasonably sure, spread
the germs of malaria: this variety i:
rare N this locality: but the Culex
| which is harmless and annoying. i:
numerous. Anyone may distinguish
the difference. Observe the fact thai
| the body and tail of Anopheles, while
| it is resting on a surface. are at ar
| angle to the surface, while the samt
] parts of Culex remain parallel to such
! surface. Also the buzzing of Culex i.
a higher note than Anopheles, which
! gives decidedly low tone"

THE PRESIDENTS ADVISERS.

It HE CHICAGO RECORD HERALD,
porter of the administration. discusses
in an interesting way the effort being
made. or apparently being made. by
President Roosevelt toward the curb
ing of the trusts. 1t says that there
exists throughout the country already
an uncomfortable lot of suspicion that
the Republican party is not in earnest
der federal regulation. and hence Mr.
Roosevelt's great anxiety TO make no
mistakes and. if possible, to make
good with actual legislation at
Washington. If he should fall down
now, and should be placed in the at
titude of uttering lot of words with
out following them with deeds, the
collapse might be exceedingly in
furious to his prospects for nomina-
ton and reelection two years hence.
which the Chicago paper believes to be
most excellent.
Continuing, the Record Herald ad-
verts with manifest pleasure to the
quality of the men whose assistance
the president will have in his anti
trust campaign The Iaudation of these
erstwhile trust attorneys is so anus
ing that it is reproduced verbatim:
From Attorney General Knox and
Senator Spooner the president win
have the aid of two OF the best law
yers in the United States. Mr.. Knox
gave up a law practice worth $780, 600
a year to go into the Mckinley cabi-
net. and Mr.. Spooner's practice
was worth close to 100000 a year
when he gave it up and returned TO
the senate. The big corporation man
ayers in this town wonder why il is
that the government can secure the
services OF such brilliant men without
giving them enough salaries TO pay
their house rent. They point to the
cases Of Knox and Spooner and Root.
The last named left New York four
years ago, closed the door OF his law
Office. for which he has ever since con-
tinued 10 pay rent, and gave up a prac-
tice worth s125,o00 a year in order to
serve Uncle Sam Any one of these
men could set a salary of $4,000 a
year from one OF the big corporations
with the privilege of doing outside
business. Yet the government has the
advantage of their service almost for
nothing

IBy ASSOCIATED pRfSS

New York. July While beginning

taxes which have been putting Zach year

the banks, national state and savings
are TO feel the effect of this reduction in
their expenses. together with various lines
OF business enterprises the national banks
have not been cascd by decision rem
dered by Judge Lacombc in the federal
court, holding that the treasury depart
meni must repay the tax which was levied
on the undivided profits Of ore bank.
Judge lacombc's decision was given in
the case OF the Leather Manufacturers
bank brought as a test 10 ascertain il the
treasury should collect $isl which was
levied as war taxes on the undivided
profits of $77,7o6 held by the bank
When congress passed the internal rcve-
nuc act in I8D8, imposing tax OH the sur
plus funds in the various banks, objcc-
ton was made, aud the Leather Manu-
facturcrs' bank was the only one TO make
the payment. Having done this, il brought
suit TO recover. Taking this suit az
precedent, all the banks of the country
will be compelled 10 pay the taxes which
have accrued in the last three years, ~
the act was not repealed until this year.

Anaconda, July 1.-The funeral of Miss
Mary Showers, who died Sunday night Of
appendicitis, took place at o'clock this
afternoon from the Episcopal church, Rev.
Alfred Brown officiating. The interment
was in the Hill cemetery.
A large concoursc Of Miss Showers
former friends and acquaintances fol-
lowed the remains to the burial ground,
and the church was filled to overiowing
during the funeral services. lnasmuclt
as Miss Showers had lived in Anaconda
from infancy she was widely known and
immensely popular and the sorrow at her
demise is widespread.
One sad phase of the case is the in
ability to locate her brother, Harvey Show
ers. who left here but few weeks ago
for the coast He has evidently moved
in the past few days. as kilograms to his
former address have failed to elicit any
reply.
The floral offerings at the home OF
Miss Showers were of unusual beauty and
the immense quantity Of them speak for
the popularity of Miss Showers in life.
Her former schooimates and girl
acquaintances were present at the funeral
services and her death is greatly de-
