and hurried after the young people, her mothers
unerring instinct making her certain that Iris
in danger and needed her.
She fortunate enough to find seat in the
train directly back of them, and their first words
turned her anxiety into a sickening fear.
There will be another such chance,
said the girl. This is Thursday, and they'll
simply be obliged to close school until Monday. 1t
wouldn't be decent not to. The mother of the
principal doesn't die every day!"
Worse luck!" said the young man fppantly.
The girl laughed and leaned back to let her
panon close the window for the tunnel.
Mrs. Chester turned hurredly. She had no morn
ing paper. She beckoned newsboy on the platform;
but he did not her and the train began to
move. She looked around eagerly, almost intending
to ask some to loan her his, but decided not
to. What it they intending to do? What
did they want Iris to join?
The train crawled through the tunnel, the air
growing thicker and blacker Mrs Chester felt stied.
Suddenly daylight appeared and windows clicked
open. She had air, but her oppression not
removed She closed her eyes with sickenng gid
diness, and drops of perspiration gathered around
her mouth. She wondered if she going to
faint.
Iris, Iris!" she kept repeating in her heart.
1t seemed to her that she could feel it bleed as if

stopped short. She distinctly
heard her daughters voice saying: MOther"
AS Mrs Chester stopped, and girl
who were just back of her stopped also, or
they would have trod on her skirt. She
looked back at them and saw that their faces
were vaguely familiar, and the young man,
thinking that he had brushed against her,
lifted his hat with a murmured apology and
passed on. But she, straining her ears for
her daughters voice, distinctly heard the
girl saying:
That lady looks enough like Iris Chester
to be her mother
Mrs Chester did not realize how much of
compliment those words contained; but her
girsh figure, elastic step, youthful face and
modish clothes, combined with the agreeable
fact that she was only nineteen years older
than Iris, made her still beautiful woman.
But that which had kept her young was her
idolatry of her only child and the magnetic
bond which there was between them. Indeed,
so often had these two spoken each others
thoughts that Mrs. Chester sometimes felt
that if Iris was in any great danger and should
long for her assistance, she would almost feel
it through space. For this same reason she
had declined her husbands invitation to
spend two months in Europe, declaring, with
his entire approval, that young girl in her
continued absence from home needed a mother
near at hand.
Thus it did not seem strange to woman of
Mrs. Chester's delicate, high-strung nature,
to feel impelled to follow the two young peo-
pie who had spoken her daughters name and
ascertain if possible who they

Station and Mrs. Chester heard them buy

of the girls wearing a class-pin such as Iris

have seen a photograph of her, and she de-
cided that here was a classmate of her daughter.
She was about to introduce herself and speak
of Iris, when the girl said:
you needn't be afraid that Iris won't go
with us. She has been in such wild mood
for the last three days that she'd do most
anything"
Mrs. Chester hastily dropped her veil over
her face to hide her strained expression, and
while they were waiting for their change the yc
fellow said:
why didn't she come with you last night?

Suddenly a great calnness stole over her.
Iris no longer a baby. She was seven
teen, almost woman grown. Mrs. Chester
had been married when only few months
older than Iris was now. A mother could not
always stand between her child and tempta-
ton. What if this was to be the test?
The train was just pulling into a station
halfway between New-York and Arlington.
The mother decided. She would not go to
Iris She would trust her daughter. She
would not spy upon her child. If the COM
partnership of years counted for naught, it
was just as we'll to know it now.
She rose to leave the train, and as she did

as she paced the station platform waiting for

friend when she had dropped everything to
follow the name of Iris.
She hurried into the station and sent

She bought a paper and read the notice of

From FL PaSO news.
President Roosevelt paid his most
a~ffectionate respects to the Confeder-
ate soldiers as he ~journeyed through
the South. He was most ~chivalrous
in his greetings of Mrs. Stonewall
jackson, and touched her heart by
paying a high compliment to her
grandson, Jackson Christian, whom
he appointed to a cadetship at West
Point. In his speech at Charlotte, he
referred to the incident, and declared
tina 1--WE of this united country have
a right to celebrate as a part of the
heritage of honor and glory in each
American, the reunion of one people,
Americans who fought in the Civil
War, whether they wore the blue or
whether they wore the gray, the val
or shown alike by the men of the
North and the men of the South as
they battled for the right as God
gave them to see the right, is now

next to the men who wore the blue
he honored of all men those who wore
the gray, and he was not satisfied TN
til he had gone out to the Soldiers
Home and greeted the veterans Of
that institution face to face.
Entertaining that view, holding in
the highest honor the soldiers of The
Confederacy, looking upon them as
men who did their duty as they were
given to e it, as patriots and not
as rebels and traitors, we cannot bdt
believe that Mr.. Roosevelt would like
t. bestow substantial favors upon
such of them as are now disabled.
We know not what he has in Ieind,
we know not if lie has anything of
the sort in mind, and we should be
the last to ask the federal govern
ment to bestow favors upon Confed-
crate soldiers. But we may go SO far
as to express the opinion that any
such recognition on the part of the
President of the United States and
the federal government of our disa-
bled C~onfederates would do more
than all else to wipe out the last yes
tige of sectional feeling in the South
and make the Southern people eel
that in very truth they are part ana

QUESTION.

After his return from Washington,
es as follows regarding the statehood
situation.
LAS to statehood, the sentiment IN
Washington seems to be that there is
no certainty of the passage of a joint
statehood bill; although it is believed
that a bill similar tt the one that
passed the House of Representatives
during the last session will pass the
House. This, it is said, will happen
although there are a number of Repub
lican members who voted for the
measure during the last session who
are opposed to it now In the Senate,
a stiff fight will be put up by the
the bill heretofore and its chances in
the p branch of Congress are
doubtful. The separate statehood idea
for New Mexico and Arizona has gain
ed strength in Congress and a strong
effort will be made by the lends of
the to put it through success
fully. The fight may become so earn
est and intense that both projects
may be defeated. The man who as
serts at this time that the joint state
hood bill is bound to pass does not
assert that 1t has an excellent nance

for doing SO. but those well posted
do not insist that this will be a sure
thing. The joint statehood bill to be
introduced will contain some provis-
ions most favorable to the proposed
new state of Arizona and a proviso
that the new state is to have five mil
lions of acres of public land for the
purpose of taking care of the state
debt; being the present territorial
debts of New Mexico and Arizona
and the railroad aid bonds issued by
he counties of Santa Fe and Grant
n this Territory, and by the coun-
ties of Pima and Graham, in Arizona.
Colonel Frost met several congress
men who thought hat neither a sep
arate nor a joint statehood bill will
and that New Mexico and Arizona
will remain territories for two or
three years longer and then admitted
as separate states. The situation,
however, is very much mixed and PEG
pie a draw their own conclusions.

as to what may be done, but leaves
it all to congress. In addition to the
