 We hear with great satisfaction that our torpedo fiotillas engaged in the work required of them at Port Arthur have gallantly and successfully accomplished the duties required of them and in so doing had to brave the dangers of storms and shells by day and night.
 Despite all the difficulties confront ing them they have succeeded in per forming their duties with the least con fusion, rendering one another mutual assistance.
 We especially note their brave and loyal performance of the duties re- quired of them. and express our appro- bation of their gallant behavior

CAN'T BE SAVED.
Steamer Robert E. Lee Is n Total

steamer Robert E. Lee Is . Total Loss.
 Memphis, Tenn, Dec. 24.-Advices re- ceived here from Craighead Point, six ty-f1ve miles north of this city, where the steamer Robert E. Lee was sunk Thursday indicate that the vessel will be total loss.
 At the time of the sinking of the steamer 1t was thought that 1t would be possible to float her. The discovery has been made, however that the dam age sustained by the boat Is more se- rious than at first supposed. Rising water adds to the difficulty of raising . her and 1t Is now considered very doubtful that the steamer can be saved. The Robert E. Lee Is owned by the Lee line of this city, and is valued at about $65,000

CHAPTER IN.

F n the gray wreathed dawn Lord
Dunmole, at the head of his
Virginia troops, marched off
with fife and drum for Fort
Pitt, and the buff and scarlet passed
the Kings Arms. where Anne peered
from the window to see them off. In
one of the scarlet groups she distin-
guishcd Francis Byrd. Drawing the
curtains close under her chin, she put
out hand and waved to him, smiling,
and he saluted her face with n flash of
his sword ana IL wistful look as he rode
by. Immediately behind the governor,
near Jarrat rode Foy, and a sting of re
sentiment made her clinch her hands,
with the steel in her eyes.
When they had gone she crept back
into the warm bed and lay smilingly
thinking. She should see Armand soon
again. and he should never know what
she had done So thinking, she drop
ped to sleep and did not wake till the
sun was high.

She entered No one was i'm the hall,
and her feet fell noisolcssly in the thick

She pushed open the door of the liv
ing room and then stopped, startled.
She saw a settle strewn with skins. a
wave of curling brown hair pillowed on
it. and under this a glimpse of a pale
face turned away There was n shaded
window opposite, and light came
through it whitley. a hand and wrist
hung over to the floor. There was some
thing dcsOlate in the silence, something
appealing in the droop of that hand
that brought a smart to Anne's eyes as
she looked.
Suddenly she caught her breath and
took quick steps forward into the room,
gazing searchingly at the figure on the
couch-the strong hair, setting all the
paloness of the face In a shadowy
frame; the blue circles under the closed
lids the young mouth, the upward
sweep of the rounded chin. She began

She had gone whittier than moon flow

You fought then? All, while l was
so glad"
She crouched down by the settle, her
hand pressed tight against her heart,
full of a joyful anguish she had never
known. Something she had fought
down hitherto rose in her throat and
choked her at sight of this hurt, this
helplessness.
At last, yielding all at once, with a
| little sob and Il gesture of pride and
longing and surrender, she bent slowly,
like a swaying lily, and kissed him on
the forehead.
He stirred and opened his eyes with
wonder in them to see her face so near

A FAREWELL RECEPTION.

The members of the Willing
Workers of the Christian Church
rendered a farewell reception and
surprise to Mrs. Barbara Youmans
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. c..
@. Taliaferro last night. A splen-
did supper was spread and the
members of the society were there
to show their love and esteem for
their friend now soon to depart for
eastern Kansas.
Mrs. Youmans is the founder of
this society and has served it as
president for many years with fl
deity and personal sacrifice. The
members of the society appreciate
her loyalty and her goodness. Her
departure is regretted not only by
the members of the society and
the church but the citizens of the
entire community join in express
ing sorrow that she leaves Medicine
Lodge, and the Index feels sure that
it will find hearty approval when
we say that we hope good health
and happiness will attend her in
her new home.

A ROPING CONTEST.

The Fair Association have ar
ranged for big roping contest and
broncho riding in connection with
numerous other amusements July
4th. The long-horned steer from
the plains will be imported and ex-
pert cowboys will be on the ground
to lasso and hogtie him. Some of
the old-time bucking ponies that
we used to see in the Sos will also
be produced with men who can
mount them. This, together with
flrst-class races, ball games and
minor and varied amusementS will
afford entertainment which will be
worth the time to come a great
distance to see, and it is an assur-
ed fact that it will be superior to
any engagement of like nature in
the history of Barber county.
The Association are advertising
this coming event early in or
der to secure a large attendance.
Everybody who reads their bills or
advertisements should consider it a
standing invitation to come.

". P. GiBSON'S BARN BURNED.

On Monday night of last week
w. P. Gibson's barn containing 13
harnesses and a lot of feed was
consumed by fire. Mr.. Gibson says it
will require $4,000 to replace the
property destroyed. He carried no
insurance. The fire is supposed to
have started from a match that the
boy struck when feeding a horse af-
ter night. He threw the match stub
into the horse stall and the suppo-
sition is that there was enough fire
on it to shoulder in the manure.
The fire broke out at about three
o'clock a. m. By hard fighting Mr..
Gibson saved the granary.

strong fight to make the other COM
missioners see it that way, but the
figures seemed to be against him.
For some reason the county clerk,
while having no vote, seemed to be
in sympathy with Mr.. Crouse's
view. The Index, of course, is not
censuring Mr.. Grouse. We think
he was sincere in his contention,
but he is not a newspaper man and
we don't believe his logic in this
case was very good. However, ev-
cry man is entitled to his opinion.
The Index has always believed, in
awarding public work of this kind,
that to the victors belong the
spoils but in recent years our
printing laws have undergone so
many changes that competitive bid
ding seems to be a permanent fixture
and competition cannot be avoid
ed. Under the circumstances, we
wish it were better, but we are
glad it is no worse.

compromise assignments to town

City and Sun City. They were
very beautiful and attested more
strongly than words the high es-
TEEN in which she was held by
those who knew her. The hymns
which were sung were selected by
her before she died. She was fully
conscious of the fact that her days
were at an end and she died as she
had lived, happy consecrated and
charming christian girl.
The funeral was very large one,
and it was indeed a sad occasion,
for this noble and promising young
lady was beloved by the entire COM
munity.
To the grief-stricken parents,
brothers and sisters goes out the
sympathy of hosts of friends.

A GOOD RECORD.

The citizens of Medicine Lodge
and vicinity will please observe that
coon hunting is not the only strong
point in Charley Taliaferro's make
up. The faculty of the Christian
Church Sunday school discovered
on examining the records on Eas-
ter Sunday that he rounded out his
third year as Sunday School pupil
without missing a single Sunday.
This is a better record, we believe,
than most of the younger pupils
can produce.
