CHAPTER XIv--Continued.

The northsiders guarded their traps.
1t was believed that with the approach
OF night the southsiders would stea
upon the traps in squads and attempt
their destruction. The trouble had
been too long brewing to give up after
one slight engagement. The fishermen
on both sides felt that principle was
involved and they were there to settle
it by might. The gillnetters declared
that the traps were gradually destroy
ing the run of fish while the trappers
claimed that the gillnets were doing
greater harm to the industry than the
! traps. The men had spent their lives
fishing, the support of their families
depended upon it, and it was truly q
vital issue with them.
The run Of fish was getting lighter
every year and whatever the fault
might be it was evident that the in
dustry would soon become a thing of
the past. 1t was natural that both
sides should strike hard now as each
respectively considered that the other
was the cause of the dying industry.
The shore people had communicated
with the men on the water several
times during the day. The women had
prepared meals and sent them out by
the boys Of the village to number Of
the men. But the fishermen were bad
iy scattered and many of them went
without meals.
Sankala had made many inquiries
for Dan Lapham but he had not been
seen since the departure of the boats
from the north shore.
he had led the way and given direc-
lions fci the men to follow. But no
one who had come ashore could give
any tidings of the young fisherman.
Sankala had prepared two meals and
sent them out by the boys but they
were unable to find him.
When night came still there was no
tidings from the young fisherman.
The girl could endure it no longer.
She prepared enough lunch for a siege
and slipped away to the beach unob-
served. She knew that if Dan had not
been killed or captured, he would be
found near his trap at the lower end
Of the bay.
The night was very dark, and a
storm was brewing, but she believed
that she could make it to his trap be
fore It grew too dangerous.
She tried the fishing boat but her
strength was not sufficient to launch
it. Then she drew q snail skiff to
the waters edge. 1t would not live in
q heavy storm, but Hankala knew that
If she could reach Dan his strong arms
would bring her safely ashore again.
The roar Of the surf on the bar was
already distinct. An occasional white
cap leaped above the murky horizon to
the southwest. Dark, misty clouds
obscured the last star. The wind was
already moaning in the boughs of the
tall Gre on the shills.s
6ankala showed the light craft into
che water, and, guided by the interval
clashes from Cape disappointment
light house, she pulled toward the foot
Of the rocks where lay the Ash trap
tended by Dan Lapham.

CHAPTER XIV.
Rescued by the Enemy.

An accident had befallen Dan lap
ham in the early morning engagement.
In the rush for boats before 1t was
still daylight he had taken the first
one ihescame to. He led the way to the
place where he expected to find the
southsiders, and was followed by the
long array Of northside fishermen in
their boats.
He was far in advance of the other
fishermen, expecting to locate the enc
my and then await the arrival Of his
colleagues and assist them in the at
tack.
Before single shot was fred and be-
fore daylight began to dawn Dan came
to grief In most unexpected manner.
The river brought with It all kinds OF
driftwood from above. The fishermen
were constantly ON the lookout for
this. for large logs, famous the world
over for their length and size. often
come down with n speed and force
sufficient to crush river steamer, and
the small craft OF the fishermen would
stand no more show before these than
would an egg shell.
But it was not one of these that
caused Dan trouble. 1t is the con-
cealed from which most harm comes
in all Of the experiences of life. 1t is
the hidden that takes man unawares
and dashes his hope to pieces or frus-
trates his plans at the most unex-
pected moment. We may battle with
the open enemy with hope of success,
but the one in ambush takes us at a
disadvantage and destroys or is victor
ious over us before we are even prepar-
ed for defense.
Dan was keeping sharp lookout
fol the enemy. He knew the plans OF
the southsiders and expected to in
tercept them before they should de
vide up into squads. While there

Lincoln Gave Her a Medal.

When John McKenna, Of Atlanta,
reached his 21st birthday recently he
received from the attorney of his
dead mother medal that was given
To her by Abraham Lincoln when she
was a child. Mrs. Sara McKennas
father was Captain Ford, OF the Unit
ed States Army. He was ordered to
quall riot in Baltimore in 1861, and
was widely criticized for his actions.
To explain his actions, relates the
Boston Transcript, Captain Ford call
ed on President Lincoln, taking with
him his little daughter.
President Lincoln listened to the ex-
PLANTATION by Captain Ford, and the
child, indignant that her rather
should be criticised, exclaimed: Il
only wish that | was a soldier
would shoot everybody who said that
what my father did was wrong"
President Lincoln stroked her hair
and took her into his lap, telling her
he would like to have an army OF such
soldiers. A messenger from the
White House carried to her home two
weeks later the medal, which was in
sc-lb'ed ITO Katie Ford, from Abra-
ham Lincoln"

A Queer Fowl This.

A hybrid fowl-the offspring OF a
wild English pheasant cock and gui-
nea hen, recently died at a farm near
Palatine, N. J. A hybrid of this kind,
while not unknown among scientific
men, is quite rare, and very few per
sons have ever seen one. The cir
cumstancs of it's birth and life are
interesting.
Mr.. William Harris, living near Ell
mer, had a flock of guineas in the
spring of 1900. These guineas had
the range of the farm, on which was
a fringe of timber. Mr.. Harris and
his men noticed an English pheasant
at times in this strip of woods and
On a few occasions when the guineas
ranged near the woods the pheasant
mingled with them, but never came
near the house.
After this flock Of guineas had laid
a number Of eggs neighbor, Jacob
Du Bots, bought of Mr.. Harris a
setting of eggs, which were duly
placed in a nest under brooding
hen. Now in all well-regulated gui-
nea families the period OF incubation
is four weeks, but to 1.-The astonish-
ment OF Mr.. Harris, one of the eggs
Matched in three weeks.
The little chick was presented to
Mrs. Lizzie Smith. 1t early exhibited
It's wild parentage, and its instinct
taught it seif-preservation. When
quite young it showed surprising
alertness. After some Of the family
would try to catch it, carefully plac-
ing the hand over it until its back
was almost touched; then, quick as a
fash. it was away.
The fowl fed and ranged with the
other farm fowls. and when fully
matured weighed seven pounds. It's
appearance was net unlike chicken,
except that its legs resembled those
of a turkey. 1t had remarkable
strength, and in few minutes could
scratch a hole deep enough to bury
itself in. 1t never met snake with
out giving and winning battle.

knowledge That May Be Useful in
Case of Accidents.

AS any member of the family may
take poison by mistake, the following
list OF poisons and their antidotes
ought to be kept where it may be
immediately referred TO in case Of an
accident of this kind:
Carbollc Acid: Sweet oil, melted
lard, or castor OIL Alcohol, in doses
OF from one to two ounces, may be
given with good results, If given i'm.
mediately after swallowing the acid
Tincture Of Iodine: Flour or starch
water, drink all the stomach will re
tain, IL much iodine has been swal-
lowed.
Opium or Morphine: Black coffee,
in full doses; keeping the patient
awake If possible.
Phosphorus from Matches: Magne-
STA in large amounts.
Paris Green and Arsenic: Lime
water, white Of egg, milk.
In all eases administer the antidote
freely.
An emetic may be given if the pa.
tient is seen early. A tablespoonful
or two of ground mustard in half
pint of warm water answers well fer
this purpose. In every instance OF
poisoning a physician should be sum-
moned; the above suggestions are Of
fered to help before his arrival.
In making poisonous disinfecting
solutions some coloring matter should
be added to distinguish the solution
from plain water. A little indigo will
answer we'll for this purpose.
A / to 100 solution of corrosive
sublimate (bichloride of mercury is
made by adding half ounce of the
chemical to four gallons of soft water
This solution should be kept in glass
or earth containers, as metals destroy
is disinfectant properties, and the
contsiner will also be injured by
chemical action.

the Sagebrush State. says the Salt

A contract to deliver 1000 tons
more to the same smelter has just

hoist will be installed at once. A
new shaft has been started on the
property, and as it has already
a depth of 40 feet, it will not be long
until mining is carried on through
