Backburn's Speech.

SenatorJ. @. S. Blackburn spoke to
crowd yesterday that filed the big
court room in the new court house.
The Senator's speech was warmly
and enthusiastically received. 1t was
one OF his usual strong and unan-
swerable Democratic speeches. His
reference to the trusts, railroad rates
and the tariff were arguments that
could not be contradicted by the
strongest Republican. He said Roose-
velt had fooled both friends and ene-
mics and paid him tribute. He paid
his respects to the Frankfort machine
in regular Joe Blackburn style. 1t
was alright for Platt to be boss in
New York, Quay in Pennsylvania and
Hannah in Ohio, they being great
men, but when it comes to the pea
nut-headed Percy Haley being boss
in Kentucky, he declared was too
much for him or any other honest
man to stand-.t was time to draw
the line. By the applause he received
by the roast he gave the ''ma-
chine at Frankfort would
indicate that Bourbon Democracy
was with him good and strong. He
closed with an earnest appeal for
Democrats to vote for the county
ticket to a man.
Senator Blackburn is always well
received in Bourbon and we are glad
that our Representative and Senator
are both for him.

LION AGALNST TIGER.
Greatero Bravery Shown By the
Smaller Animal.

The owner of one-ring circus trav-
ellng through the West this summer
found himself in sore straits through
the death OF a much advertised lion
Wnlcn was the star attraction of the
show. With a fertility born of ne
cessity he advertised in the nearby
papers for brave man." A good,
strapping Irisnman applied for the po-
sition.

Snowman, "and l will give you SIS

skin and go through his tricks. All

assented to the proposition and being
or bright wit and intelligence soon
learned all that was required of him.
The first afternoon of the show he
went through the PAGES well. enclosed

countrymen. In the evening the man.
ager thought he would cap the climax
by announcing to the audience that he
would place the lion in the tigers
cage. On hearing this the son of Erin
was terrified beyond comprehension.
However, with trembling steps he went
into the tigers cage. but at once crept
up INTO a corner, praying to himself.

trouble, he moaned. aKape away

broken down at the last moment. He
would make the trip to Worthing after
all.
"Put your hands higher up, Verna,
nearer to my neck. We are safe if
You keep STILL"
The swimmer rose on the crest Of a
long green swell, travelling shoreWard.
A terrible explosion had occurred in
the engine room of the Spray. She
had sunk in less than fifteen minutes,

complished. There had been no panic.
but her two boats were filed to the
very gunwales with their human
freight. Six men were Venturing to
swim to meet the boats, putting off
from the shore. Geoffrey Mannering
was one of them. He had assured
Verna of his ability to save her If she
would trust herself to him rather than
to the overladen boats.
Verna kept perfectly still. Her feet
trailing in the water gave her TERRI
flying sensation as of floating upon in
finite depth.
The strong frame of the swimmer
supporting her moved forward with
its steady strokes. How calm he SEEM
ed; how confident! At that moment she
loved him most: yet at that moment
she knew that she might never be
his.
On the return journey to Brighton,
Godfrey had told her all: had made
his confession. He had said: "I love
you; loved you from the day that we
met. "That is all my defence"
There had been a long and dreadful
pause, while she wrestled with her
pain, with her temptation. Then she
had answered: eve must say goodbye.
We must never meet again. When we
land, we must shake hands for the last
time. You could not help loving me
any more than could help loving you.
Yes, love you; but this is barrier
which we cannot overcome"
And then, almost Immediately after
wards, the accident had occurred. The
sea was very cold; the warm suns of
summer had not yet penetrated it's
chilly bosom. He was becoming stiff

Experience or an Old Timer Ia
the Wifds or Idaho.

sIn the winter of 3d." said an old
miner, now in Uncle Sans service,
at Washington, :" I was living in a
cabin by myself in the mountains of
Idaho, about seven miles from Idaho
City, my nearest and only neighbor

bachelor, who kept the toll house be-
tween Idaho City and the adjoining
mountain towns.
my cabin was about two miles
to the East, directly among the
mountains. The snow which had
been falling at intervals for several
months, Lay about 10 feet on level
around my cabin, and my only
method of travel was by snow shoes.
Il had made my tri-Weekly run to

strength which despair will give. At
furlong from the shore he was seen.
A boat turned his way. Then came
a final struggle to keep afloat. He was
dragged on board with his burden
when at the point of utter exhaustion.
The journey shoreward gave him
time to recover strength. With his

again. She had pointed his way of
duty, and he must follow it.
Godfrey turned his steps toward his
hotel.
1t was afternoon. A procession of
every conceivable kind of carriage
rolled along the Kings Road. By the
Brunswick lawns, tearing along the
front at mad speed, came a powerful
motor car. The driver was man, and
at his side, closely yelled, sat lady.
Scarcely perceiving the rushing car,
Godfrey crossed in front of it. A loud
shout and furious below from horn
made him look up as he dashed for
ward.
Surely he knew the driver? And that
yelled lady? Something in the poise of
her body suggested name-but no,
he told himself that he was half silly,
nearly dropping with fatigue.
Geoffrey staggered into his rooms.

him from falling. For at that mo.

consciousness.

TORRANCE COUNTY
NORMAL INSTITUTE

The Torrance county normal insti-
tute opened at Estancia on Monday.
under the instruction of Miss Jose
phine L. Corbett, a successful teacher
originally from Kentucky, but more
lately from the Kansas City schools,
where she has had much experience.
Torrance county is a new county and
contains only nine school districts,
but in spite of that the institute is
being attended by eight teachers and
more are expected. This proportion
compares very ~favorably with other
counties. The members of the board
of education are Francisco Gonzales.
chairman; w. c. Walker and NJ. b.
Atkinson. They are very enthusiast
tic in their efforts TO give Estancia
good schools, and to the credit of the
citizens, be 1t said, that they are a
unit in that measure. The progress
sive management Of the Santa Fe
Central railroad donated to the Es-
tancia district a well constructed and
commodious school house and grounds
and the citizens have voted bonds to
furnish the anne in modern style. The
outlook for Torrance county in edu-
cational matters, is very good, in
deed.
Hon. Amado Chaves, of Santa Fe,
assistant superintendent of public in
struction, paid an official visit to the
institute, addressed the teachers, and
expressed qualification at the work
that is being done in educational mat
ters in this county.
