Had there been a state of war in existence 1t is probable that the viceroy would have fortified and gar. risoned the pass, but under present conditions nothing had been done. As soon as messenger from Teach in- formed Morgan that the pass had been occupied and that all seemed qnlet in Caracas. a fact which had been learned by some bold scouting on the farther side of the mountain, he was perfectly easy as to the work of the morrow. He would fall upon the un- walled town at night and carry every thing by a coup de main.
 Fortunately for the Spaniards in this instance. 1t happened that there was another way of access to the valley of Caracas from La Guayra. Directly up and over the mountain there ran a narrow and difficult trail. known first to the savazes and afterward to wan dering smCggiers or masterless out laws. Originally and until the Span iards made the wagon road it had been the only way of communication be tween the two towns. but the path vas

 ingly rough and difficult and at best barely practicable for the stoutest wagons The road wound around the mountains for a distance of perhaps twenty-five miles, although as the crow flies it was not more than five miles between the two cities. Between them, however. the tremendous ridge of mountains rose to a height of nearly 10000 feet. Starting from the very level of the sea. the road crossed the divide through depression at an alti- tude of about 5000 feet and descended thence some 5000 feet to the valley in which lay Caracas
 This was the road over which AL
 -<rado and Mercedes had come and on the lower end of which they had been saotured. It was now barred for the young soldier by the detachment of buccaneers under young Teach and LOllonois. who were instructed to hsold the pass where the road crossed through or over the mountains Ov- ing to the configuration of the pass. those fifty could hold it against thou sand Ii was not probable that news of the sack of La Guayra would reach Caracas before Morgan descended upon if. but to prevent the possibility or to siaeck any movement of troops toward S1e shore it was necessary to hold that road The man who held il was in position to protect or strike either city at will It was. in fact. the key to the position.

An hour later he burst through the ranks of the little army and refined in his horse before the as tonished viceroy. who did not recognize in this sorry cavalier his favorite Of ficer, and stern words of reproof for the unceremonious interruption of the horseman broke from his lips until they were checked by the first word from the young captain.

 "A prisoner! For Gods love, turn back the men!''
 ''Instantly" cried the viceroy.

 "Shef was an abbess of our holy church. She died upon the sands of La Guayra by her own hand rather than lend aid to the sack of the town"

A process has recently been patented in Canada for the manufacture of milk powder, which consists of mixing with milk . sufficient quantity of milk salts to render the albumen soluble, such as one per cent. of nitrate of calcium and phosphate of potassium. The milk is then evaporated and non- crystalline sugar is added in propor- tion of about one to two per cent. of the weight of the milk in order to pre- vent decomposition.

 It was perhaps 9 o'clock in the morn ing when he reached the summit breathless, exhausted, unhelmed. weap- onless. coatless, in rags; torn. bruised. bleeding, but unharmed-and looked down on the white city of Caracas set in its verdant environment like hand full of pearls in goblet of emerald. He had wondered if he would be in time to intercept the viceroy, and his strained heart leaped in his tired breast when he saw, few miles beyond the town on the road winding toward the Orinoco country. body of men. The sunlight blazing from polished helms or pointed lance tips proclaimed that they were soldiers. He would be in time, thank God!
 With renewed vigor he scrambled down the side of the mountain-and this descent fortunately happened to be gentle and easy-and, running with headlong speed, he soon drew near the gate of the palace. He dashed into 1t with reckless haste, indifferent to the protests of the guard, who did not at first recognize in the tattered, bloody, wounded, soiled specimen of humanity the gay and gallant commander. He made himself known at once and was confirmed in his surmisc that the vice roy had set forth with his troops early in the morning and was still in reach ing distance on the road.
