other horse was dead and beneath
his shoulder was pinioned the leg of
a young man. Blood was trickling

Jessie was lowering near, wringing
her hands in pity and excitement.

Yes. sir; ch hurry, sir"
Crouching down, Peter Burt threw
the head of the dead animal across
his shoulder. He grasped the trace

the other. In his prime he had raised

With heave of his massive should

horse clean from the ground, and Jes-

limb of the mCtionless young man.
The old man gathered the body in
his arms. and carried it to a grass
plot by the side of the road. He rest

young mans chest, and heard the
faint ilutter of the heart. In accents
which thrilled Jessie Garden he eX-

At the turn in the road the general
distinctly saw a man clinging to the
horses bits. bruised by the swaying
poe-a pigmy who dared check the
flight of giants. They swerved
sharply at the curve. The off horse
stumbled, lurched sideways and fell.

General Garden was an enthusias

packing her trunks when her father
sent word that the carriage was
ready. and that she was to drive with
him. A few minutes later they were
speeding down the old beach road.
They drove for miles along the wind

cool and salt from the ocean, and the
air was fragrant with the breath of
summer.
A bit of the harness had become

San Juan, Il. r.. Feb. 22.-Porto
Rico, weary of the yoke of Uncle Sam,
has taken a bold step for statehood or
independence and decided on a de.
mand to the United States which will
take the form of an ultimatum. In
the federal assembly, after a debate
that was exciting at all times and rev.
dictionary in frequent outbreaks, the
federal assembly adopted by an v
whelming majority a resolution Of de-
fiance to the United States government
as it at present controls Porto Rican
affairs.
Most of the speeches urged an en-
phatic demand for independence, and
the case of Cuba was cited in com
p~arison to show what advantages were
to be gained by cutting alOof from
the Washington government. Some OF
the more conservative members, how
ever, pointed out the improbability of
the United States c~onsenting to loss
of the island, and it was urged thai
the original demand be modified so as
to ask for statehood, withindependence
as an alternative.
As finally adopted the demand de-
clares the interests of the people de-
mand a revolution from the existing
United States administration and in
sists on immediate statehood, or, If that
is rot granted, independence. The dec
laration was adopted amid loud hur-
rahs by a vote of GO to 10.
