Final Farewell.

Victor, Colo, June 11.-Acting under
he orders of Adjutant General Sher-
man Bell of the\state national guard a
special train was made up shortly
after noon Friday in the Short Line
yards at Victor for the deportation OF
seventy-six union miners. The train
was composed of a combination bag
gage car and two day coaches. AL
most Immediately the work of loading
the men began. They 1ere marched
to the train between heavy lines Of
military and deputies. A crowd Of
fully 1000 people had collected to see
the men placed on board. Among the
spectators were wives and sisters,
fathers and mothers OF the deQorted
men and the scenes were very at
fecting. Mothers, sisters and sweet
hearts cried goodbye and tried to
push through the lines for parting
handshake. Most of the women had
been allowed to see their relatives at
Armory hall before the men were
marched out.
Mayor Harris OF Colorado Springs
had been apprised Of the decision to
deport the men and Immediately took
steps to see that none of them landed
in Colorado Springs. Under his in
structions large force Of officers and
deputy sheriffs met the special train
at 6:10 p. m. for that purpose. No at
tempt was made, however, to unload
the men there, arrangements having
previously been made to send them to-
the Kansas state line, over the Santa
Fe, because of protests made against
taking them to Pueblo or Denver and
leaving them there.
The train stopped long enough at
Colorado Springs to give the soldiers
time to eat The deported men had
rations of beans and bread on board.

Buyinu a Good Fortune,

Four little green birds sat on a cage
fronted with a tray. The tray held
folded slips of paper. A man carried
the whole. He strolled east in Grand
street, near Mulberry. A woman,
swarthy of complexion and with a
shawl drawn around her head and
shoulders, looked at the birds and
hesitated in her walk. The man, keen
to notice any indication of trade, saw
her hesitancy. .-
Fortune, LADY," he asked.
The woman stopped and passed a
coin to his hand. He lifted a bird from
it's perch and placed it on the edge of
the tray. The bird picked up folded
slip of paper. The man took the paper
and handed it to the woman. The
woman opened it, read, smiled, and
passed on. The man nodded approx.
ingly.
Gave her a good fortune, did you?"
asked a man standing by.
Sure" said the man with the birds.
"All the fortunes are good. Birds tell
no bad fortunes"
Then he smiled wisely.-New York

CHAPTER xxvIIl.-continued.


One morning the little street car
stood. as was it's wont, at the terminus
OF the track, near the front of the wide
grounds of the old mansion house
This was far out upon the edge of the
little city, and few were the patrons
that might be expected; but it was
held but mere courtesy to offer the
services of the street car line to this
family, so long recognized as one of
the unimpeachably best of this South
ern city. This modern innovation of
the street car was not readily taken
up by the conservative community
and though it had been established for
some years. it might be questioned
whether its shares had ever paid much
interest upon their face value.
At this terminus of the line at the
outskirts of the town there was each
morning enacted the same little scene
The driver slowly unhitched his mules
and turned them about to the other
end OF the car, in readiness for the re-
turn journey. Matters having pro-
crossed this far, the mules fell at
once into deep state of detection
and somnolence, their ears Topping
down, their bodies dropping and mo-
tionless, save as now and then faint
swish of tail or wag of a weary ear
bespoke the knowledge of some bold
marauding fly. The driver perched on
his seat, his feet upon the rail, his
knees pushed toward his chin, sat with
his broad hat drawn down upon his
forehead, his hands clasped between
his legs, and all his attitude Indicative
of rest. ~
Presently from a side street, faced
by large brick dwelling, there came
with regular and unhurried tread tall
and dignified figure, crowned with a
soft Panama, and tapping with Off
cial cane. AS it approached the car
the driver Strengthened tritle on the
seat. ~
Good mawnin,', Judge Wilson," he
said
"Uh-ah. good mawnin', James," re-
piled the Judge. "Uh-ah, Doctah
