AGAIN THE GODS MAKE CHANGE.
Now it would be tedious to tell
how, with handful of highly
trained fighting men. [ charged and
recharged, and finally broke up that
horde of rebels which outnumbered
us by Is times. 1t must be re-
membered that they grew suddenly
panic-stricken in finding that of all
those who went in under the city
walls by the mine on which they had
set such great store none came back,
and that the sounds of panic which
had first broken out within the city
soon gave way to cries of triumph
and JOY. And it must be carried in
memory also that the wretched
rebels were without training worthy
of the name, were for the most part
weaponed very vilely, and, seeing
that their silly principles made each
the equal of his neighbor, were prac-
iically without heads or leaders also.
SO when the panic began it spread
like a malignant murrain through
all their ragged ranks, and there
were none to rally the flying, none to
direct those of more desperate BRAY
ery who stayed and fought.
Ny scheme of attack was simple. /
hunted them without a halt / and
my fellows never stopped to play the
defensive. We turned one flank, and
charged through a center, and then
we were marrying the other flank,
and once more hacking our passage
through the solid mass. And so by
constantly keeping them on the run,
and in ignorance of whence would
come the next attack, panic began to
grow among them and ferment, till
presently those in the outer lines
commenced to scurry away towards
the forests and the spoiled corn
lands of the country, and those in
the inner packs were only wishful
for chance to follow them.
1t was no feat of arms, this break
ing up of the rebel Lacquer, and no
practiced soldier would wish to
claim it as such. 1t was simply TAX
ing advantage of the chances of the
moment, and as such it was success
full. Given an open battle on their
own ground, these desperate rebels
would have fought till none could
stand, and by sheer ferocious num-
bers would have pulled down any
trained troops that the city could
have sent against them, whether
they had advanced in phalanx or
what formation you will. For it
must be remembered they were far
removed from towards, being Allan
team all, just as were those within
the city, and we're, moreover, spurred
to extraordinary savageness and
desperation by the oppression under
which they had groaned and the
wrongs they had been forced to en-.
dure.
Still, as I say, the poor creatures
were scattered, and the siege was
raised from that moment; and il
was plain TO see that the rebellion
might be made to end if no unrea S on
able harshness was used for its final
suppression. Too great severity
though perhaps it may be justly their
portion, only drives such malcontents
to further desperations.
Now following up these fugitives tc
make sure that there was no halt in
their retreat, and to send the lesson Of
panic thoroughly home to them, had

need banker after no too narrow in
quiries for what's along"
So thereon we set off, Ylga and 1,
leaving the lights of the bivouac be-
hind us, and she showed the way,
while l carried my weapons ready to
ward off attacks whether from beasts
or from men. Few words were passed
between us, except those which had
concern with the dangers natural to
the way. Once only did we touch one
another, and that was where tree
trunk bridged rivulet of scalding
water which flowed from a boil-spring
towards the sea.
Presently, however, we came out
through the trees, and the toughest
part of our journey was done. We
saw the ship riding to her anchors
inshore a mile away, and weird
enough object she was under the
faint starlight. We made our way
to her along the level beaches.
lob was keeping keen watch. We
wes challenged the moment we came

bargained with lob to get clear of
the harbor forts before the chain was
up for the night, and as he is a very
daring fellow, with no fear of naviga t.

said he would come to point of the

there await you. Come, Deucalion, let

THE COMMONER.
Mr.. Bryan's PAPER.

MI DIS an Ghper,
The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100, 600 copies, record
probably never equaled in history of
American periodical literature. The un-
paralleled growth of this paper demon
strates that there is room in the news
paper field for a national paper devoted
to the discussion of political, economic
and social problems. To the columns
of The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan contrib
utes his best efforts: and his review of
political events as they arise from time
to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner's regular subscription
price is S1.00 per year. We have ar
ranged with Mr.. Bryan whereby we
can furnish his paper and the weekly
Democrat together for one year for
s1.50. The regular subscription price OF
the two papers when subscribed for
separately is $500.

say that for period of only three

pretty dear for their printing. The

emphatically that Dyke Ballinger
does not owe his nomination to the
"bum element" and that it cannot
be said that he spends his time loaf

true. We don't know that anyone
has charged N. B. Freeland with
loafng around saloons but that does
not prevent his being charged with
some of the worst crimes in the cal
ander, and with being totally unfit
to fill any county office.
