What charm, one asks onself in won.

years wandering firesideless from
Cairo to Cornhill? 1t cannot be the
climate, for our own is quite as good.
Historical associations, we are assured,
compensate many of those people for
the absence of kith and kin. Expert
ence, however, has taught me that the
majority of them are as splendldly in
different to history-and art, too, for
the matter of that, unless it is applied
to the decoration of the human form
as they are to the Rosetta Stone.

That useless fatigue is left to the new

of settling down seriously to study

These riders are picturesque, indivld-

horsemanship, marvellous in the accu-
racy of their craftsmanship, experts
with the lasso, Injured to hardship and
danger, fearless and often reckless in
their daring, class unto themselves

The duties of these riders are to pro-
tect their respective governments from
imposition at the hands of that class of
INSCRIPTIONS men known as smugglers,
and to prevent cattle thieves from run
ming their ill-gotten plunder across the
border.
From the coast to the Colorado desert,
along the boundary line between the
two nations, the country is rough In the
extreme and very arid. 1t is region
sparsely settled, and some Of the tough
est characters of both nations hover in
the locality for the double purpose Of
breaking the laws of the country and
of thwarting the officers who may un-
dertake their arrest by lodging across
the line. one way or another.
1t is this lawless element with which
the border riders have to do. Some of
these lawbreakers are tame persons,
too cowardly to make trouble for the

Tia Juana is a couple of miles away.
This latter town consists of the Mexi-

story wooden building, containing an
office about sixteen feet square, fur
nished with table, a desk, two or
three chairs and gun rack with a doz-
en- stand of arms therein, a consultation

room with hunks for the accsmmoda-

The riders have some strange expert
ences and not few thrilling ones. Not
long ago a Mexican rider was passing
through lonely canyon in the night
time. Suddenly, without a single warn
ing to indicate the presence Of an en-
emy, there dropped over his shoulders n
cord, which was swiftly drawn tight,
and then he found himself flying
through the air. He had been lassoed
in the midst of darkness almost equal
to that of the tomb. He dropped to
the earth with a thud that paralyzed
his senses for a moment, and when he
regained them he was bound hand and
foot. Beside him stood his hOrSe-he

Yet the smuggler Is no less a swindler
than the person who forges the name
Of another, and is no less a thief than
the man who breaks into your house

defines smuggling as intent to defraud
and fixes severe penalties. The snug
gler may be assessed a fine of $1,000
or imprisoned not more than two
years, or both; the goods he tries to
enter may be contiscated; the vessel

fatal shot; ana quick as he had fred
the shot he rushed upon his victim
with scalping knife in hand.
A loud ugh" rose from the Indians
and they rose from behind the rocks
and rushed to the scene OF death,
some exulting and some showing
signs of disapproyal, while old Egan's
face wore a sign of disappointment.
But before they had reached his 81 lie
the young murderer clinched his vic
TINS hair and was already twining
scalping lock about his fingers.
Before the knife had touched the
scalp, however, a rife rang out a
sharp crack, and then another aud
another. The young warrior and a
companion fell full length for their
last fall, and in the midst Of cracking
shots the others sought refuge be-
hind the nearest rocks.
The shots had come from the loop
holes in front of the trapper's home,
and the Indians could plainly see the
dark muzzles of rifles still in the
small openings, and every time that
the slightest exposure was made on
the part of the red men, a pun OF
smoke. sharp crack and whistling
bullet warned them to keep under
cover.
1t had continued thus for more than
an hour when keen whistle was
heard from the summit of the rim
rocks in the rear. The dim form CT
a man was seen upon the topmost
rock, rifle in hand. He could see
the skulking forms of the Indians
among the rocks beneath him, and
at the same time observe the en-
trance to the cave. He signaled the
beseiged to cease firing and mo-
toned the Indians to depart. The
white men withdrew their rifles and
the Indians gladly accepted the ar
mistice.

couple Of miles further on, OF o urove or
cattle where they had crossed the bor-
der. Later there came one with a story
OF having been robbed Of his stock. Ef-
forts were made to trace the cattle and
the thieves, but they were never dis
covered.
Word came to the American custom
house one day that certain parties were
making heavy purchases Of Mexican
opals, and that the presumption was
that they were for export to the United
States. A very careful description Of
the parties making the purchase was
appended to the report and the officers
began watching for the appearance of
the persons described.
One day individuals answering per-
fectly to the description entered the
custom house and stated that they
wished to pay duty on certain purchases
which they had made. They presented
a quantity Of opals and the duty was
appraised and duly paid. SO far so good,
but the amount Of gems presented for
inspection was less than one-tenth of
the purchase which had been reported.
When asked IL those were all the gems
or dutiable goods they possessed they
replied that 1t was.
I'VE will have to search you and your
effects" said the customs officer, and
he proceeded to do so, but nothing fur
ther was found. He was puzzled and
unsatisfed, but there was nothing to do
but to pass the parties. That night the
explanation was Forthcoming. Three
Mexicans whose regulations for law
less daring were widespread undertook
to put through the bulk of the Jewels.
Notwithstanding their shrewdness and
experience in that line of work they
CHANGED to run into two of the riders
that night. When halted they replied
with their guns. One Of the riders went
down with bullet through his lung.
His companion, however, was good on
the gun play, and he soon put two Of
the Mexicans hors du combat and the
third, under his aim, threw up his hands
and surrendered. The opals were found
in their possession and were confiscated
by the government The duty on the
lot would have amounted to nearly
$4,000
Despite all precautions a great many
goods get over the line duty free Fancy
articles, Mexican drawn work, and the
like, made extensively south of the bor-
der, have a way of appearing mystQri-
ously in the shops of the American
towns.

crevasses. although she had shown n
wonderful spirit of GOODNESS and
strength during their recent adven-
ture. The trapper was quick to come
to a conclusion. He decided to go
and get his rife and secrete his lug
gage, and steal into his home with
the girl the following day, making as
much of the way that night as pos
sible. So leaving her in the cavern
he went on his mission, at the same
time avoiding the savages who were
skulking among the rimrocks and
making a diligent search of every
nook and corner.
The trapper was not gone more
than two hours, though his course
was roundabout one, and to his
surprise and dismay on his return the
girl was not to be found.

WONDERFUL SULTAN OF PERAk.

He Has Seen Wildness and Ignorance
Give Way TO Prosperity.
A man Of SO years of age, he has
passed almost exactly half his life
under Malay rule and half under the
new regime inaugurated by Great Brit
ain. A man with eyes wherewith to
see and a mind wherewith to Judge,
compare and think, he Is probably
among the most enlightened rulers of
the native states of the East, and a
convincing apostle of British rule. He
has seen in his own time his country
pass from a mere wilderness of forest,
threaded sparsely by sorry footpaths,
into a land surprisingly wealthy and
prosperous, over the face of which
roads and railways run crisscross like
the meshes of net. He has seen law
lessness, brigandage, rapine and con-
stant interneclne strife vanish and be
replaced by peacefulness unequaled
In Paccadilly, says Blackwoods Mag
azine. He has seen the spear and the
kris, which once ruled the world, laid
aside in the glass case of museums, or
brought only on state occasions to deck
courtly ceremonials. Moreover, he has
seen his own ancestral lands, which Of
old lay fallow under dense jungle,
opened up and made to produce rich
revenues; blacklist ignorance replaced
by education; lack of sanitation by a
wise respect for the laws of hygiene,
and dire poverty by wealth and COM
fort. Though the sentimentalist may
mourn the disappearance Of much that
was picturesque, Of much that was at
tractlve, yet these be wonderful
changes for any man to have wit
messed, still more to have had a big
hand in bringing to pass; and without
disparaging the wisdom and self-de-
votlon of his European advisers, It
must be admitted that Perak owes
large share of its prosperity to the
personal efforts of It's present Sultan.

the masters or owners of vessels may
be fined If they hinder or obstruct the
customs officers In any way in the
search for suspected goods.
Customs officers are clothed with very
large powers. They may board and
search without warrant any vessel ly-
ing In port, and may search all trunks,
boxes, baggage, papers, envelopes, all
conveyances and means of transport,
stores, warehouses and other buildings
in which there is any reason to believe
dutiable property is stored. They may
even inspect the books and accounts of
merchants who are under suspicion Of
receiving smuggled goods. The pro-
ceeds Of the property discovered, con
demned and sold, go part to the govern
ment and part to the principal customs
officers of the district, and part to the
informer, If he happens to be a person
outside the government service.
