THE EMBASSY.


Monsieur. Madame! Pierre Noir!
Listen to me. | have saved you! l,
Jean Breboeuf, | have rescued you"
So spoke Jean Breboeuf thrusting
his head within the door of the lodge
in which were the remaining prisoners
of the Iroquois.
1t was indeed Jean Breboeuf who,
strolling beyond the outer edge of the
village, had been among the first to
espy an approaching party of visitors.
Of any travellers possible, none coulu
have been more important to the pris-
oners. Too late, yet welcome even
now. the embassy from New France
among the Iroquois had arrived. In
an instant the village was in an up
roar.
The leader of this embassy from Que
bee was one Capt. JOncaire. at that
time of the French settlements, but in
former years prisoner among the
Onunda2Os, where he was ADOPTED into
the tribe and much respected. JON
caire was accompanied by priest OF
the Jesuit brotherhood, by young
officer late of the regiment Carignan,
and by two or three petty Canadian
officials, as well as a struggling retinue
of savages picked up on the way be-
tween Lake George and the Indian
villages He advanced now at the mead
of his little party, bearing in his hand
a wampdm belt. He pushed aside the
young men, and demanded that he he
brought to the chief of the village.
Teganisoris himself presently advanced
to meet him, and of him Joncaire de-
manded that there should at once be
called fill council Of the tribe; with
which request the chief of the Onon-
dagos fastened to comply

CHAPTER xxx.
THE SACRIFICE.

There was sometimes practiced
among the lrOquois a game which bore
a certain resemblance to the casting
of dice, as the latter is known among
civilized peoples. The method of the
play was simple Two oblong polished
bones, OF the biancss of a mans finger,
were used as the dice The ends of
these were ground thin and were rude
ly polished. one of the dice was
stained red. the other left white. The
players in the game marked out line
on the hard ground, and then each in
turn east up the two dice into the air,
throwing them from some receptacle.
The game was determined by the fall
ing of the red bone. he who cast this
colored bone closer to the line upon
the ground being declared the winner
The game was simple. and depended
much upon chance If the red die fell
fiat upon its face at a point near to
the line, it was app to lie close to the
spot whore il dropped. On the other
hand, did it aliaht upon either end, it
might bound back and fall at some lit
tie distance upon one side of the line.

KESWICK, Feb. 19.-The affidavits
of Happy Valley ranchers are being
taken in Redding for use in the United
States Circuit Court in San Francisco
in the case of the United States against
the Mountain Copper Company of
Keswick.
Suit was brought by the Govern
ment several years ago to abate the
nuisance created by the smoke from
the smelter. The company's stand
has been that all the damage that
could be done to trees and vegetation
has been done long ago. 1t is and has
been ready to pay the Government for
all timber destroyed within a pre-
scribed area.
The intent Of the affidavits now be-
ing taken is to show that the area Of
damaged timber and vegetation is be-
ing extended. The Happy Valley
ranchers are making affidavits that
crops and orchards are now being
damaged by smoke that were never
affected before. The valley is ten

About six weeks ago, when Warren be-
gan 10 waste away, she moved TO the
Maryland, an apartment-house at 299
Hyde street, that she might be near TO
her fiance.
When she had finished her work Miss
Murnane was wont to visit Warren and
nurse him. Her devotion was untiring
and she did not seem to realize that
the man she was TO wed was doomed.
Just before his death the young woman
wanted TO have the ceremony per-
formed. but was deferred by her sister,
who realized that Warren could not
