 T can only admit that you arc right" he murmured. We must pray that God will direct our friends to this island. Otherwise we may not be found for a year, as unhappily tho fishermen who once came here now avoid the place. They have been frightened by the contents of the hol- low behind the cliff. I am glad you have solved the difficulty unaided, Miss Deane. have striven at times to be coarse, even brutal, toward you, but my heart finched from the task of tell ing you the possible period of your i'm prisonment."
 Then Iris, for the first time in many days, wept bitterly, and Jenks, blind to the true cause of her emotion, picked up a rife to which. in spare moments, he had affixed curious device. and walked slowly across Prospect park toward the half obliterated road lead ing to the valley of death.
 The girl watched him disappear among the trees. Through her tears shone a sorrowful little smile.
 He thinks only of me, never of him- self" she communed. "If 1t pleases Providence to spare us from these saw ages, what does it matter to me how long we remain here2. l. have never been so happy before in my life. fear I never, will be again. If it were not, for my fathers terrible anxiety r would not have a care in the world. [ only wish to get away so that one brave soul at least may be rid of need less tortures. All his worry is on my account, none on his own"
 That was what fearful Miss Iris thought or tried to persuade herself to think. Perhaps her cogitations would not bear strict analysis. Perhaps she harbored sweet hope that the future might yet contain bright hours for her self and the man who was so devoted to ,her. She refused to believe that Robert Anstruther, strong of arm and clear of brain, knight of the Round Table in all that was noble and chival-, ric, would permit his name to bear an unwarrantable stigma when-and she blushed like a June rose-he came to tell her that which he had written.
 The sailor returned hastily, with the manner of one hurrying to perform neglected task. Without any explana- tion to Iris he climbed several times to the ledge. carrying armloads of grass roots, which he planted in full view. Then he entered the cave, and,f although he was furnished only with the dim light that penetrated through

 And of course, although you can do wonders, you cannot provide all those things, can you?
 Jenks deemed this query to be unan- swerable.
 They were busy again until night fell. Sitting down for little while be fore retiring to rest, they discussed for the hundredth time the probabilities of speedy succor. This led them to the topic of available supplies, and the sailor told Iris the dispositions he had made ---

Justice For Arizona.

According to current reports the
congressional committee that is now
engaged in Investigating the state
hood question in the southwestern ter
ritories will not endorse the false and
preiudiced report of the Beveridge
committee.
The members of the present commit
tee are already quoted as declaring
that Arizona is fl for separate state
hood and that they will do what they
can toward securing that result at the
earlist possible moment.
The resources of Arizona and the
ability of her people to govern them
selves are matters of fact and not of
opinion. and that is the reason why
the injustice Of Joint statehood should
never be accepted. either by Arizona
or New Mexico. The admission of
these two states is only Il question of
time and no temporary advantage
could compensate for the wrong and
evil of Joint admission. Pueblo Chief

A Newspaper Lesson.

The GiscOntinuance of the Durango
Telegraph is another illustration of
the folly OF trying to force upon a
city more newspapers than a city can
reasonably support.
Such a course inevitably adds to
the burden carried by the merchants,
it necessarily lessons the quality of
th2 newspapers published in the city,
and it unavoidably ends in the exter-
mination of one of the papers that are
being carried ION air. and without
solid business foundation on which
to build.
There is no more certain method O1
throwing away money than to estab-
lish another newspaper in field al
ready well occupied, and merchants,
ambitious politicians and others make
a serious mistake, resulting in injury
20 themselves and to the community,
whenever they encourage a scheme of
this sort.-Pueblo Chieftain.

Tue Value Of Colorado Land.

proprietor Of possession that in the
very nature o. things l. bound to Ip-
preciate in value. The rate nf in
crease may be FASTENED or delayed by
local conditions. hut the increase is
certain, aud it is perfectly safe pre-
,tiction that at the end OF any decade
tbe value of anF piece OF Colorado
real estate gill be more than q. the
beginning Of that period.
And while this is true in general
way of all land in the. state ii isespec-
iaily tue of the ost.er quality of ir-

-igued lands that are most fayora-

There is something highly signifi-
cant in the fact that some Colorado
fruit lands are held at prices exceed
ing d, ,5oO ,00 an acre, while the aver
age for al tie farm lands of the
United States is less than $1,000 per
acre, and the average value per acre
of the farm lands Of the North Central
division, the best improved farming
region of the country, is less than
.$25 90 per acre

get from l60 acres, then the twenty
acre field in Colorado is worth not
only as much rs the 160 acres else
,where-it is worth more; because the
expense of cultivation of the smaller
tract is very much less.
And it is always worth remember
ing that the amount OF choice Color
ado land is strictly limited, and what
ever the government may do for us in
sshe way of irrigation works, or what
ever help science may do in the way
