| amined his weapon, removing each
cartridge from its chamber and sub
stituting it with fresh one from the
belt. He looked at the watch which
ne had been permitted to retain and
saw that the hour was half past mid
night. He drew from. under the mat
tress of his bed bundle of Mexican
cigars, doubtless purchased for him by
Quirino, lit one, extinguished the lamp
and threw himself into a chair, his
long legs stretched in front of him.
td1s face, sometimes shown. by the
burning end of the cigar, was free
from care and reminiscent in express
sion. Now and then he smiled hap

MS love. A single bar of light from
the setting moon came through the
window and hung upon the opposite
WALL From outside came an OCCASION

doWn-stooping nighthawk.
Half past one and the cigar was
smoked out. The moonlight had gone
from the wall and the world was black.
Weston rose, buckled on his pistol,
felt that it rested lightly in the hol-
ster, jammed his sombrero down upon
his curls and stepped lightly to the
door. Once in the hall, his feet made
no more noise than those of cat. He
reached the front door, felt for the
catch, found it and pressed it. The
door swung noiselessly open. On the
previous night he had attended to the
hinges with bottle of oil and a
feather. A second later he was on
the porch, with the door shut behind
him. Here he paused and sent his
keen glance rowing. Nothing living
was in sight. From the section occu-
pied by the huts Of the Mexicans came
the shrill barking of a dog. The
rancho dogs he knew were kept chain
ed at night in the rear of the house
because Of their disposition to kill
things. He turned to his left, stepped
off the porch and hurried stealthily
away. His route took him by the
bachelors quarters. He could hear
the snore of the healthy young ranch
men inside and he smiled. AS he
reached the sfar end of this house.

men saw each other at the same in

Englishman, but no more. He was
hurled backward as if struck by fall
ing tree. Westons powerful grip was
on his throat and his knee was on his
chest. Outcry was impossible. With
lnconcelvable speed the fugitive, with
disengaged hand, jerked from under
his pistol belt the silk scarf which he
wore, then, releasing his hold on the
throat, wrapped the silk about his half
unconscious victims head and mouth.

Locality Affects Quality of Appies,

Locality Affects Quality Of Apples.
A. variety Of apples will vary in
quality largely according to the local
ity In which it grows. We have been
struck with this fact as we have test
ed apples grown in different parts of
the United States. Just what are the
elements entering into the problem
it is hard to say. The writer was
once on the fair grounds at st. Louis
and was looking over the apple ex-
hibit. To the man in charge Of the
Missouri exhibit he remarked the
want of flavor of a certain variety of
apples grown in the prairies states.
He was answered that the same va
riety grown in the Ozarks had a fine
flavor, and, to- prove his assertion,
handed the writer an apple from the
region named. 1t was indeed highly
favored. Possibly the composition Of
the soil has much to do with this.
The clay soils that are rich in lime
seem to give high favored fruit. Yet
it may be due to other things than
the condition and composition: OF soil.
Perhaps on the rich prairie soil the
growth of the trees and of the fruit
is too rapid to admit of the best of
results in the way Of hayors. We
would like to hear from our readers
on this point. Do soils affect flavor

Novel Method of PLANTING Trees.

The Forest Department of South
Australia, the most enterprising body
in forestry in the Colonies, have
adopted the bamboo tube system in
planting out young trees, and it has
proved very successful. The plant CON-
monty called bamboo (Arundo donax),
really reed, is cut into lengths of
above inches, and filled with prop
erly prepared soil. Then a small
pinch OF seed is placed in each tube,
and with judicious watering the seed
l1ngs appear in due course. The tubes
may vary from one-half inch to /
lnch, but should not be obtained from
very old bamboos, as such tubes will
not rot when planted out. All gums
reared for planting out in South Aus
tral1a are grown in these tubes, this
plan having been found to be the best
and most economical in rearing, plant.
ing, and carrying over long distances,
at the same being safer than any
other system, as far as. root exposure
Is concerned. The soil having been
we'll worked, an opening is made with
spade, and the tube is placed there
In, but care most be taken to plant
the tube right to the bottom. If this
is not done, when the tree sends out
young roots at the bottom Of the
tube, they would come into empty
space and perish, and the death of
the young tree would follow. It is
recommended to plant the tree as far
under the soil as possible, as the tube
is more scertain to decay when we'll
in the ground, as the damp can act
on it better than when it shows on
the surface.-Indian Agriculturist.

MIX Hauling BY Factories.

In some Of the localities where there
are creameries. the milk lis hauled by
the. patrons. In other localities the
creameries do the hauling themselves.
There are some advantages and some.
disadvantages for each method. One
of the reasons why the factory can af-:
ford to haul it's own milk is that it
thereby gets about all the milk there
is in locality and gets it all the.
time. Where farmers haul their own
milk they cannot be depended on to
bring the supply at all times. In the
summer time when the field work is
pressing they not infrequently find it
pays them better to keep the milk at
nome Tor a day or two and make but
ter from 1t than to take the time of a.
man and horse going to the creamery.
VI course there are obstacles in the
way of the milk being gathered by a !.
factory employe. One of the obstacles
Is the difficulty of working in the:
baDcock test with such a system. If
man goes out to gather milk he can
not carry one or more cans for each
customer if his milk route includes a
large number of patrons. He wants
10 econom1ze space by putting the
milk OF several patrons into one can,
where that can be done. Analysis of
any value to the individual patron be-
comes then impossible. Nevertheless
1t may we'll be doubted if it pays
FARMER with a. few COWS to haul his
malk to market himself, if his time is
OF any value. Where it can be prop
erly controlled the hauling of milk by
the factory is advisable.
Watery Butter.
Recently in Chicago a car of butter
from a Kansas creamery company
was examined by government experts
and found to- contain "a per cent of
water. 1t consisted of ladle goods,
and this explains how the water got
into it. 1t was probably worked in
intentionally in the process of work
ing over the butter. This is trick
That is worked with variations. Some
times chemicals are used to help in
corporate the water with the butter.
and at other times heat alone is de-
pended upon. This butter was evil
IDENTIFY reworked at a high tempera-
ture. AT the present time the ruling
OF the government is that butter must
not contain over 16 per cent of water
IN the past, as there has been no law
on this point, no investigation has
oeen made, and it has been assumed
that the trick was not being worked as
extensively in this country as in Eu-
rope. 1t may turn out, however, that
we have been constantly victimized in
this respect, and that the imposition
has been going on all the time. The
government inspection will now bring
1t to light and will at least prove a
check upon it.

last winter by Mr. Cocheu. The great
structure has been leased to the
Brunswick Hotel company, of which
Gustav Bauman, present proprietor of

Therefore, a president is to be elect

tion, like the merchants, have some ex-
cellent material TO select from.

SPORTS DOWN SOUTH.
Our indians Defeated College Boys
at Football.
WE LOST At BASKET BALL.

The Albuquerque Indian school were
victorious in the foot ball contest with
the Agriculture and Mechanic Arts col
lege team at Mesilla Park yesterday.
The score was to 0.
Intense interest Prevailed from the
kick off until time was called. The
game was beyond doubt the best pig
skin contest ever fought on the grid
iron at the college. 1t was fast and
furious, in both halves, but the Indians
proved that they were superior in team
work
The first half began by the Indians
attacking the college line, but seeing
that they were holding out strong, the
Indians worked the ends effectively.
In the second attack on the end,
Roybal, the fast right half back of the
Indians, went around the end and hav-
ing a clear field, made the only touch
down of the game. Goal was kicked
by full back Johnson. In the last half
of the first the Indians had the ball
within several feet of the college goal
The second half opened with center
rushes which soon broke the line of
the college, but their staying qualities
were all there and the Indians were
prevented from another goal, al
though they advanced the ball within
three feet of the college goal, which
looked dangerous for some time. The
Indians had the game in their hands
all during the game. for at no time
could the college get nearer than the
forty-yard line.
Both teams were in excellent condi-
tion and the work was fast and of a
nature that showed they had received
plenty of practice since their last
meeting.
"One Arm" Pelphrey and Hart of the
college team played star game, while
Johnson and Roybal of the Indians
were the heroes.

were referees and umpires. Time
