Of the altar seem to burn with double
intensity and the yellow glow from
them falls full upon the white face
of the gentle Andalucian. Soledad
remains kneeling, her lips move slow
ly: in her hands there is neither cross
nor rosary, for the ardent devotion of
the woman removes all need of them;
instead her fingers press with nervous
movements, a little watch that marks
with desperate slOwness the hours Of
the interminable struggle.
The night has fallen. Suddenly a
dazzling glitter Of lightning flashes out
across the sky and a fearful storm
breaks over Madrid. Soledad gives

for herself if the storm will be Of

do not return, but the ''corrida' must
surely be finished because, aside from
the fact that the usual time has pass
ed, the tempest must, of course, have
put an end to it. What indefinable bit
terness is painted on the face of Jose's
wife! The rain has ceased for mo-
ment, and the street is filled with a
thousand confused rumors. The shop
keeper OF the corner has returned, talk

friends; and the carriage does not ap-
pear.

Soledad hears nothing. She hastens
out into the street; without needing
the children that have just come il
from their play, in order to be in time
to help their father take off his Co.'S

utes she is in the Prado and then in
the old Aragon high-road, which is
dark. lonely and full of mud and that
acrid and penetrating odor that always
remains after a rain storm. Some of
the lamps have been blown out by the
violence of the wind and among the
little whirlwinds of muddy leaves that
are blown against Soledad's lace man.

trees in the Retro are agitated by con-
tinual gusts of wind and seem like
gaunt specters. A few black clouds
drift across the horizon, half illumi-
mated by the mist hidden moon. When
yet not far from the Plaza, she sees
in the distance sad cortege. Several
dependents are carrying on their
shoulders mattress covered with a
dark cloak. Two or three curious
wayfarers are talking with the men.

saying.

ONE OF THE BEST
OF TRANSPORTS

The transport Crook, which is due
here today from San Francisco, is a
vessel new to this port and is one of
the largest and most attractive of the
transport fleet, bearing a slight resem-
blance to the Hancock.
After her purchase by the Govern
ment on April 1, 1899, the vessel was in
the transport service between New
York and Santiago de Cuba and Porto
Rico. until December 5th, when she
left New York for Manila, by way of
the Mediterranean. Upon arrival at
Manila the Crook was sent on a coast
ing trip in the Philippines, and was in
Manila bay only a week upon her re-
turn when she was dispatched for San
Francisco. sailing March 9Th.
The vessel was built at Dumbarton
on the Clyde in 1888 for the Hill line.

Company in the Cape trade, later being
bought by the Allan line and put in
the trade between Liverpool and New
York and Glasgow and Philadelphia.

Upon being purchased by the United
states Government her name was
changed TO Crook. after the Indian
fighting General. While in the trans
port service between New York and the
West Indies the Crook was used on
two trips TO carry the dead bodies of
soldiers from Santiago to this country.
The vessel was also used to carry a
large party of Cuban school teachers
on an excursion trip to this country.
Her commander. Captain Walcott. is
the third oldest master in the trans
port service although one of the young
est in years. having been master of the
Crook since September Is. 1898. He is
sc years old and very popular. Years

BIG FREIGHTER

The much-delayed American-Ha-

freighter Alaskan is expected TO arrive
here today from San Francisco. She is
the biggest vessel that has ever entered
this port. being larger than the freight

Unforeseen difficulties in coaling. So
