measures have caused considerable ex.

the rumors that the military activity
was due to warning from European

Wild Rumors Prevail.
Paris, Feb. 20-Wild excitement
prevailed on the Bourse today as a
result of startling contradictory re.
ports concerning possible world COM
plications growing out of the war. The
rumors included the prospective mob
ilization of the German and French
armies. The papers also said that a
serious influence was exercised by the
report of difficulties between the Uni

of the refusal of Russia to grant an

OFFICIAL MATTERS.

Rehearing Ordered BY Land Board.
In the case of Mrs. J. e. Klasner of
Picacho, Lincoln County, versus W. H.
Lumley, involving the prior rights to
lease to section 16, township IL south,
range 18 east, the secretary of the in
terror having decided that no valid
lease of the section now exists, the ter
ritorial land board upon Mrs. Klas-
ner's petition has granted rehearing
of the case at which the applicants
for lease of the section are cited to
furnish testimony establishing the
preference right to the lease, in the
matter; this will come UP before the
territorial land board at it's regular
session on the first Monday in April.
The history of the case is quite inter-
esting. The school section was taken
up by Mrs. Klasner's father James
Casey thirty-three or more years ago,
when all that portion of New Mexico
was still in Socorro County. Casey
made a homestead entry for part Of
the section, but the description given
was erroneous and the patent that
was awarded him contained lands
which were not occupied. entered nor
improved by him. Mrs. Klasner
through her father and her mother
has had and has possession of the cul-
tivatible part of this section. In 1892
Lumley appeared and squatted upon
part of it. Applications for lease under
the territorial land laws were made
by her and by Lumley in 1899. A
lease was awarded her but was not
approved by the secretary of the in
terror, as no appraisal of the land ac-
companied it,
Before she could correct her appli-
cation, Lumley filed application for
lease. This application was also dis
approved as it contained no appraisal
Since then the territorial statute pro.
viding for appraisement before lease
is granted, has been repealed. Both
claimants are, therefore, cited as
above.

CHAPTER XVI.
The Artfulness of Sam.

For a brief time there might have
been found support for that ideally in
accurate statement of our Constitu-
ton which holds that all men are born
free and equal, entitled to life, liber
all our might we belle this clause.
though in the time of Ellisville it
might have had some footing. That
day has long since passed.
The stamping of the social die had
begun it's work. Indeed, after time
there came to be in the great dining
room of the Stone Hotel little groups
bounded by unseen but impossible
lines.
Sam, the owner of the livery barn,
had one table in the corner, where he
invariably sat. His mode of entering
the dining-room varied not with the
passing of the years. Appearing at the
door, he cast frightened look at the
occupants who had preceded him, and
in whose faces he could imagine moth
ing but critical censure of his own
person. Becoming aware of his hat,
he made dive and hung it up. Then
he trod timidly through the door, with
a certain side-draught in his step, yet
withal an acceleration of speed which
presently brought him almost at
run to his corner of refuge, where he
dropped. red and with a gulp. When
Nora stood at his chair, and repeated
to him frostily the menu of the day,
NIL the world went round to Sam, and
he gained no idea of what was offered
him. With much effort at noncha-
lance. he would again wipe his face,
take up his fork for twiddling, and
say always the same thing.
oh. I amt very hungry; jes' bring
me a little pie an beef an coffee"
And Nora, scornfully ignoring all this.
then departed and brought him many
things. setting them in array about
his plate, and enabling him to eat as
really he wished. Whether Sam knew
that Nora would do this is question
which must remain unanswered, but
II Is certain that he never changed
the form Of his own order"
Sam was citizen. He had grown
up with the town. He was, 30 to
speak, one of the charter members of
Ell.sville, and thereby entitled to con-
sideration. There was 70 reason why
Sam might net look any man in the

Franklin burst open the door. and
they both went in, half pausing. There
was that which might well give them
pause. The table was gone. the chairs
were gone. The interior was nearly
denuded, SO that the abode lay like an
abandoned house, drifted half full OF
dry, fine powdered snow. And even
this snow upon the floors had no
tracks upon its surface. There was
no sign of life.

white and huge, in the middle Of the
abandoned room, listening for that
which they scarce expected to hear.
Yet from one of the side rooms they
caught moan, call, supplication.
Then from a door came tall and
white-faced figure with staring eyes,
which held out its arms to the taller
of the snowshrouded forms and said
Uncle, is it you? Have you come
back? We were so afraid" From
the room behind this figure came
voice sobbing, shouting, blessing the
name of the Lord. So they knew that
two were saved. and one was miss
ing. They pushed into the remaining
room. "Auntie went away" said the
tall and white-faced figure, shuddering
and shivering. She went away into
her room. We could not find the
fence any more. Uncle, is it you?

and saw Mrs. Buford lying covered
with all her own clothing and much
of that of Mary Ellen and Aunt Lucy,
but with no robe; for the buffalo
robes had all gone with the wagon,
as was right, though unavailing. I'm

insufficient, lay Mrs. Buford, her face
white and still and marble-cold They
found her with the picture of her hus-
band clasped upon her breast
"She went away" sobbed Mary Ell
len, leaning her head upon Franklin's
shoulder and still under the hallucina-
ton of the fright and strain and suf-
fering. She seemed scarce to under
stand that which lay before them, but

Her Husbands Legal Guardian.

Some peculiar features were con-
nected with the marriage of Miss
Myrtle Thyme and Albert Grayland at
LIE Seuer, Mimi, recently. The groom
was only 20 years of age, and being
an orphan without a guardian, was con.
sequently unable to obtain license.
The young lady. though nearly two
years younger, was still over IS, and
of lawful age to get married. Neither
one wanted to wait for the young man
to grow older so the difficulty was,
settled as follows:
Miss Thyme formally and legally
adopted her affianced. and then, as
guardian, gave the necessary consent
to a marriage license being issued to
him. The document was duly given
out. and justice of the peace married
the couple.
