aback that he forgot to remove his hat.
She was a young woman of twenty and
the best looking one he could remember
seeing in a year. He both admired and
pitied her.

dotted his hat
Il am the sheriff" he replied, and
am sorry to say that l have a warrant

girl, but if you have come to arrest

"Then let me tell you that while my
father may have broken the law, he
has been guilty of no crime. He sold
the COW to a man who meant to cheat
him out Of the price and discovering
this he took possession and drove her
back home. If the man has sworn out

"but you see | know nothing about the

the warrant and take your father over

turn out as you say and that he will be
back home tomorrow. May | ask if he

The girl looked him straight I'm the
eyes and saw sympathy there. She
liked his looks but her face hardened
and there was a glitter in her eyes as
she turned to enter the house and said:
Just give me "A minute to talk with
father, will you?'
The minute had only half expired
when the sheriff found himself Gov
cred by a rifle in the hands OF the
daughter and heard her quietly say
ing:
IF you try TO take my father away
from here on any such warrant as that
I'll put bullet into YOU
"Shoo! Shoow exclaimed Joe as he
fell back a pace or two. Young wom-
an, do you know you are defying the
law? You can be sent TO prison for a

away, but I'll come back again. It's
my duty to serve this warrant. So long

The sheriff had been bested. but il
was by young and good looking
woman, and he did not feel so very
crestfalen as he rode away. His idea
was to arrest the father outside the
house and avoid all trouble with the
daughter.
The next day he returned to the
claim and lay hidden for several hours.
He caught sight Of the girl at the door
several times, but the father did not
appear. He came again next day and

Farmers should Join the Grange.

While the grange is making rapid
strides in membership this year, there
are still great many farmers who
are not members OF the Order of
Patrons of HusbandTy. More than
30000,0o0 people Of the United States
are engaged in agriculture. The moral.
social, educational and financial status
of so large a number Of our people Is
a matter of interest to every good citi-
zen. The primary purpose Of the
grange is TO educate and elevate the
American farmer. Every patriotic
farmer should join the grange and help
the good work along, and every other
good citizen, as opportunity may offer,
should speak a word Of encouragement.

AZ Least Twenty Lives Are Lost by
the Sinking of the British
Steamer HuddersneId.

Antwerp, May 2s.-The British
steamer Huddersfield, Capt. Hamon,
which sailed from this port Tuesday
for Grimsby, England, was in collision
with the Norwegian steamer Tito.
1t is said the passengers were mostly
seamen returning to England. 1t is be-
lieved they were crushed in the col
lision. The bows of the Tito were dam
aged.
1t was ascertained later that % Aus
trian and Italian emigrants persisted
when the Huddersfield sank.
The survivors of the Hudders-
fields passengers and crew were
picked up by the Tito, which landed
them here. The survivors say the
dead were nearly all crushed while
asleep in their berths. The collision
was so sudden that there was no time
to launch the Huddersfield's boats.
The disaster is attributed to the elec-
trio lights of dredger, anchored in
midriver, which dazzled the pilots Of
the colliding steamers, who were thus
unable to see the danger of collision in
time to avoid the crash.
