CHAPTER II.

FHE name Jerks" was an abbrevia-
ton; a term of endearment. The
full name of the master of the
ship was an impressive one. 1t was
Noteworthy Jenkins-and it was a ia
nous name. Nowhere on the face Of
the seas was there such a daring, tear
Ing, swearing son of a seacock as
Noteworthy Jenkins, the master of the
Sarah Margaret. No ship had such a
reputation as had she. Most of the
chew upon her were shanghaied,
brought aboard drunk, after having
been kidnapped for the purpose. Some
or them never came back; those that
did come back came back MANNED and
lamed and sick and sore-for Capt.
jenkins was knocker-down and drag
ger-out. If there was an absolute mon
archy on the face of the earth, 1t ex:
listed on the Sarah Margaret before she
had tied up, or after she had ast-her
mornings. She and her captain were
the terror of the seas, not for other
craft, but for the men aboard her. No
man, If he could help 1t, ever sailed in
her after the first time
1t was to this man and to this ship
that the young gentlemen with num-
bers and without names had consigned
the unconscious form of Mr.. Ellington
O'Keefe.
And she was tramp boat, bound for
everywhere in general and nowhere in
particular, and she would not return
for year and a day or so, or more, as
circumstances might direct.
A week later in Monroe a stranger
entered town, and made his way to
police headquarters. He asked for the
chief. The chief saw him.

stranger, and I'm reckoning up a
chap that everybody's looking for He's

They satntered down to the hotel
After some slight refreshment, they
sat for few minutes In the large
front lounging window that overlooked
the street. They engaged in a desul-
tory conversation about nothing In par
ticular.
Suddenly the New York man caught
the chief by the coat sleeve. He point

Planned to Surprise Friends
Nevertheless, though the names of
the parties to this Chinese honey
moon" are concealed, the details were
cheerfully furnished. The pair left
this city in the morning for Winona,
there to be married in secret. They
contemplated an suspicious return to
La Crosse and planned to surprise the
friends they had fooled, but when the
groom reached into his trousers pockets
at the sWtnona ticket office window, he
stopped suddenly and the smile left his
face. There was less than dollar.
He purchased his bride a ticket to
La Crosse and assured her he would
quickly follow, but was called up town
on business. He said If he did not re-
turn In time for that train he would
take the next, which left in a few
hours.
The bride boarded the train without
him. Still he was there. While She
worried as the train sped along, he was
clinging desperately to the iron rail of
the baggage car.
There was no stop until the train
pulled into La Crosse and the bride

of news about the war, and In order

following is sample-a translation by

monarch. he sent a specially trained
company of swordsmen,s aeh of whom
with sword in his hand is shot away

The Mantle of o'keefe Upon the
Shoulders of Smith

On the night when Constitutional
Smith had consigned Ellington O'Keefe
to the tender mercies of the sea and
once commenced to make himself at
home IN the mansion of the latter. He
had entered the house, greeted the
housekeeper by name, sought the ia
vorite apartment of the late O'Keefe,.
and all without the trembling of an
eyelid. Preparation was the secret of
all this. Constitutional Smith always
prepared his jobs and prepared them
well; but he had never prepared any
job as he had this one. There was only
one thing about it that he regretted
That was the necessity that compelled
him to employ two young toughs. He

Japanese Military Plan of Campaign
Soon to Be Revealed.
London, March 23.-News is receiv-
ed from Newchwang that south wind
is dispensing the ice points, which
means the beginning Of active opera
lions that at least will reveal the
carefully concealed Japanese plan of
campaign.
According to the Standards st. Pc.
tersburg correspondent, the Russian
government has privately informed the
senators that since the outbreak of
the war exactly 100000 troops have
been forwarded to the far East by the
Siberian railway.
The board of trade warns the mas
tiers of British ships that they must
not resist being stopped or searched
by warships of either belligerent for
contraband of war.
The Daily Telegraph's Seoul CORE
spondent, cabling under date of March
%, reports the rising of mob of
Koreans against Japanese soldiers at
Samung, north of Gensan. The Japa-
nese dispersed the mob, killing five
men and wounding twenty.
The Daily Chronicle publishes IN
confirmed rumOrs from Chefoo and
Newchwang Of bombardments Of Port
Arthur on March 12 and II, five Euro
peans and many Chinese being killed
in the former, and two guns being dis
mantled and fifty soldiers killed in the
latter attack.

Precautions.

Move Rapidly But Take All Necessary
Precautions.
st. Petersburg, March 23.-Vice Ad-
miral Togo's activity at Port Arthur
Is being emulated by the commander
of the Japanese forces in Korea. The
report of General MistchenkoW shows
that the Japanese have taken the pre-
caution to erect earthworks near An
ju, which are being held by Japa-
nese division until the remainder of
the first army corps comes up from
Pingyang, about 40 miles away. The ad-
vance of the Japanese shows that they
are losing no time and that they are
more rapid than the Russians expect
ed. Nevertheless the fertilization of
Anju shows the Japanese operations
are accompanied by all proper mill
tary precautions.
So far as the Russians are concern
ed, they have no intention of attack
ing Anju, but the province of the 5000
or 5000 cavalrymen under General
Mistchenkow will be to harass and re-
tard the Japanese in every way posi-
BILE.
The authorities here believe that it
will be only matter of a short time
when active land operations begin,
but at first these will take the form of
skirmishes, as the main Russian force
remains in occupation of strategical
points On the Yalu river.

st. Petersburg. March 23.-The fol.
lowing dispatch has been received
from Viceroy Alexieff, dated Mukden,
March %:
General Mistchenskow reports that
on March II our scouts approached the
Anju entertainments made by the
enemy. Up to that date the enemy
had not appeared at Yongpyon, fifteen
miles northeast of ANU. It is sup
posed that there is one Japanese d.
vision at Anju and that the remainder
OF the First army corps is at Ping
yang.
In consequence of the report that
two squadrOns of the enemy had ar
rived at Pakchong, fifteen miles north
west of ANU, 200 of our cavalry were
dispatched for the purpose of prevent
Ing the enemy from crossing the PAX
chong river. Our cavalry found three
Japanese squadrons on the left bank
OF the river, but they withdrew to-
wards ANU on the arrival of our de-
tachment without fighting. The Japa-
nese squadrons number ABOUT 100 each.
"On the night of March 10 two dis
patch riders encountered a Japanese
patrol between Kasan, about fifty
miles north by west of Pingyang, and
Chenchu, about twelve miles north of
Kasan. The patrol opened fire, but
our dispatch riders escaped unhurt.
According to report 5000 of the
enemy's cavalry occupied Yongpyon,
March 10, and material for pontoon
bridges have been placed in readiness
north and south of Anju.''

The Camphor Industry.

The annual consumption of camphor
throughout the world is about TO-
400, 900 pounds. Part is used medic
inally. In Japan, certain amount
is utilized in the lacquer industry; in
China, it is burned to give light or in
funeral ceremoies. But it's chief use
is in the celluloid industry, because it
is the base of this product and of it's
principal derivatives, and since this
industry has been considerably devel-
oped in the last few years. The island
of Formosa furnishes about half of
this product. The consumption of
golden grain belt beer is increasing
more and more as the public realizes
that this delightful beverage is espec-
tally suited to home use-at the family
board-because of its healthful tonic
qualities. Order of your nearest

MEXICAN INDEPENDENCE
Arrangements Being Made for Its Cell
 ebration Here.

The Spanish-American people of Phoenix are preparing to properly cele- brate Mexican independence here on September 16. They are not going at it on so large a scale as last year as Tue son is arranging for big show and expects a big excursion of Phoenix people there on that day. But those who cannot go to Tucson desire to give the day the proper recognition tlso.
 In the forenoon there will be a picnic at Eastlake park and in the evening there will be a big baile. Other events may be arranged later as the plans are still in a formative state and those be- hind the movement do net know yet exactly what they will do. It is not announced yet whether or not there will be a parade. It is also under stood that a steer tying tournament is being arranged for the afternoon of that date, by some of the American patrons of that form of sport, and if it natures it will form a part of the days exercises, being so timed as not to interfere with other events.

Important

Of all the important pieces of furni- ture in the house there are none that rank with the range upon which the meals are cooked. Bedroom sets and parlor furniture may differ in quality and beauty of finish according to the means of the owner; carpets may be Of the finest texture and most beauti- fuI weave, or there may be no car pets at all Pictures may ornament the walls, expensive vases and bric-a- brac may beautify the rooms. All these good things make the house brighter and hal pier but all are of secondary importance compared 10 that piece of furniture upon which the three meals a day are cooked for S65 days in the year. It is for these reasons that every household not al- ready possessing a good range should have a MOoRE'S STEEL RANGE.
 You can buy a Moore's Steel Range anywhere from $2O to $67.5O at Dav- idsons Cash Store. They have the largest line in Arizona Territory. They keep thirty-four different styles and all have square ovens, drop oven doors, adjustable fireboxes. They are asbestos lined, boiler riveted, and have draw-out ash pans. Every one is guaranteed to be the best baker you ever used, if you haven't used a AIoore's and for saving of fuel they have no equals. Remember these are not idle claims simply arising from the desire to sell all the ranges sold in Phoenix, although we would like to sell all of them. But every range we sell is sold with the understanding that it meets the claims we make or money refunded. In the meantime if you contemplate purchasing a range remember that 1t will pay you to visit Davidson's Cash Store, the store of bargains in Hardware, Ranges, Crock cry, Stationery, Guns, Cutlery, Tents, Woodenware, Tinware, Enamelled Ware Lamps and thousands of useful things.
