The voices Of soldiers standing upon
the bridge were audible as Darrell crept
up in the shadow. and he could hear
the tramp of many feet. a regiment
was marching but not upon the high
way. There must be road intersect-
ing il and running parallel to the pres
ent course OF the stream
The stream was so high that 1t left
only q fringe of wet rocks on each side
of the arch. and Darrell worked his
way along with considerable difficulty.
He succeeded in getting through with
no worse misfortune than hard fall
on the rocks, and presently he was
again within the shelter of the trees
beside the water. A hundred yards far
ther along, the stream bent sharply TO
the left and passed under the road
upon which the troops were marching
1t was not an easy task TO elude OBJ
servation under such circumstances.
and Darrell narrowly escaped squad
OF soldiers that had taken advantage or
halt to fill their canteens. He lay
within ten feet OF them for many min
conversation, from which he learned
that this force had come by rail to a
point not far north OF Vladikaukas and
had made a circuit OF the city, that II
was composed OF troops from the prov
ince of Stavropol and that it was de-
pending upon re-enforcements concern
ing which there was n rumOr of delay.
I.I ,aN Inc Il
Darrell passed the second bridge. a
little later he ascended hill beside the
stream, and, being overcome with
WEAKNESS. he lay down to sleep just
as the moon began to light the sky In
the east. lie awoke at daybreak, stiff
with cold and painfully lame as a re-
suit of his fall upon the rocks. Hob
bling to the edge of the trees, he found
that he had accidentally chosen spot
singularly favorable for observation.
Despite the roughness of the region,
Darrell could see almost the entire ex-
tent OF the Russian force. The line
as he saw 1t was about two miles long,
and doubtless there were skirmishers
beyond his vision. There seemed to be
between 5000 and 5000 men, nearly all
infantry. The center was on the main
highway from Vladikaukas to Cred
skov, and there had been great changes
in the disposition of the force during
the latter part Of the night. The way
by which Darrell had come was now
the least practicable that his eye could
discover, yet he could see other places
where u man might pass aided by the
roughnsss OF the country and the dark
ness OF night.
His proximity to the line was ar
element Of peril; indeed, he wondered
that the very spot on which he stoot
was not held by picket guard. Re
treating from the place, he became
aware Of men upon the north slope o
the hill ascending, but he eluded them
passing around to the westward. IL
encountered far less difficulty than b.
had expected and was soon beyond tn
reach of anything except some chanc
scouting party. 1t seemed to him tina

while ago. But remember 1t. re-
member-many things"
He looked up with smile, tried to
speak again and choked in blood, yet
without the appearance of much pain.
Then. in a moment, the poor fellow
was but clay, the crippled soul set free
upon the wind Of the night.
Darrell laid him down and was about
TO cover him with the red cloak, but
upon a second thought he threw the gar

place to ford the stream, and as he
crossed he heard the Russian soldiers
calling to one another in the field.

PATRICK HENRY'S
MAIDEN SPEECH
SPOKE IN OPPOSITION TO THE
OLE0MARGARiNE BILL.
WAS CONGRATULATED
His Colleagues All Agreed That
Young Congressman Made
a Good Speech.

Washington, Feb. 13. 13.-Representa.
tive Patrick Henry, of Mississippi,
one of the new and active members
of the House O. Representatives., de-
livered his maiden speech in that body
Monday afternoon taking the floor
shortly after 10 80 p M, speaking in
opposition to the passage of the Oleo-
margarine, or what is better known
as the Grout bili. Mr.. Henry took
the hoor upon an amendment offered
by Representative Henry, of Conneo-
ticut, speaking under what is known
in the House as the five minute rule,
his time being limited to five minutes.
AT the expiration of that period,
however, upon request of ore OF the
members Of the Mississ; pi delega-
tion, the time of Mr.. Henzy was eK-
tended for another five minutes. At
the conclusion of his remarks he an
nounoed that he would revise his re.
marks and would extend his speech
in the Record, privilege which has
been granted to all who so desire on
the Oleomargarine bill.
Mr.. Henry in his remarks in oppo-
sition to the levying of tax on this
commodity stated that in his district
not pound of Oleomargarine was
manufactured, and that he had no
personal interest in the manufacture
of it. He contended that the levying

men, the latter sought to destroy the
former industry through Congression-
al Legislation. He further contended
that there is nothing harmful in the
ingredients Of Oleomargarine. He
stated that the advocates of the pend
ing bill based their sadvooacy of the
measure upon the ground that the
people needed protection from what
they term fraud. He said that the
dairymen themselves often took but
ter which has become rancid, and un-
ft for use, and by doctoring it, sold
it to the pablo as pure tub butter "
At the conclusion of his remarks
Mr.. Henry received many congratu-
lations from his colleagues and other
members of the House. 1t was his
maiden speech in the House, and all
agreed that he made good speech.

NATIONAL LABOR LAW
Attempt to Get Congress to Reg
ulate Hours of Labor in the
Various States.

Boston, Mass, Feb. 1S.-The com
mittee ON Federal Relations has ro-
ported favorably to the House ON the
resolution in favor of an amendment
to the constitution of the United
States which would permit Congress
to regulate the hours Of labor in the
several states This resolution has
been presented to previous legisla-
lures. This year at the committee
hearing it was supported by the coun-
sci of the Arkwright Club, which is
the organization of the factory owners
Of the state, and has usually opposed
any legislation desired by the en-
pioyees. Many leading cotton manu-
facturers desire law which would
equalize the hours of labor in the
New England and Southern states.
