CHAPTER XII.
An Execution DELAYED,

The prisoners-all that remained of
the gallant band that fought for the
Republic-were ruthlessly shot.
This was the first official act of
Philip of Aragon after the crown had
been placed upon his head General
Salvarez, the greatest of the prisoners,
was not placed among them, but no
less was the murderous wrath of his
captors to descend upon his head.
True, Salvarez was a prisoner of
war, and should have been treated with
the consideration and dignity due his
rank.
certain honor was reserved for
SalvareZ, it is true-the honor of
standing alone to meet his death.
And, as if to mock him, or to en-
phasize the irony of his fate, the man
who was to command and carry out the
execution OF the republican general
was his old neighbor, Pedro Francisco
The loving wife and daughter Of SAL
varez were still with him in the room
which was to be the last he should ever
occupy in his own castle.
II fear not for the country" replied
Salvarez. "Give the President time to
get his army here, and the monster
will never live to see another day. It
is not that which moves me. All, it
is the thought Of you!" The general
rose from his chair and paced the
length of the room. "For myself
care little. Years ago consecrated
my life to the Republic. In battle
would give it willingly. But it is hard
to go thus and leave you, my dear ones,
in the hands of these merciless scoun-
drels. There are no friends left. In
whose hand can l leave your"
"Alas!" said bona Maria, "our
friends are dead. Yet I do not fear
for myself. If they take you, my gen.
eral, I soon will follow you. By my
own hand I will cheat these monsters
of one victim of their license"
But Jacinta!"
"She is young. She must-she
must"
Must what?" sternly asked the gen
eral. "Give herself up to these despoil-
ers? Rather, if she is true daughter
of the Republic, She"
A heavy step interrupted the CONVEX
sation.
Pedro Francisco entered.
His black, cleaning eyes glanced to-
ward Salvarez and his wife, and then
rested upon the beautiful, tear-stained
face of Jacinta.
He beckoned for her, to leave her
fathers side and come to him.
He led her to distant corner, and
bent to speak in her ear words that
could be heard by herself alone.
'You can save your fathers life," he
said.
She glanced quickly and beseechingly
at him.
"Jacinta," he said, "have you heard
the order of the king?"
She bowed her head.
YES she answered. ''My father
pays the penalty of his loyalty to his
country-to your country-with his
life"
True" he said "At noon today he
is to be led out into his own garden,
and bound, and stood face to file OF
soldiers. An officer will give the word
to fire. That officer is myself"

THIRD PASTURE.

Now we come to frisky lot, the
Labor Union" editors. You know
down in Texas a weed called
loco" is sometimes eaten by !.
steer and produces arrangement
of the brain that makes the steer
"batty" or crazy. Many of these
editors are "Locoed" from hate OF
anyone WHO will not instantly obey
the demands" of labor union,
anditis the universal habit of such
writer's to go straight into a system
of personal utilization, manutac-
turing any sort Of falsehood
through which to vent their spleen.
We assert that the common citizen
has right to live and breathe air :
without asking permission Of the
labor trust and this has brought
down on us the hate of these edi-
tors. When they go far enough
with their libels, is it harsh for us
to get judgment against them and
have our lawyers watch for
chance to attach money due them
from others? (For they are usual
ly irresponsible.)
Keep your eye out for the "Lo-
coed" editor.

This burst of true American girl indig-
nation was caused by the teacher saying
that Grape Nuts, the popular pre-digest-
ed food, was made Of stale bread shipped
in and sweetened.
The teacher colored up and changed
the subject.
There is quite an assortment Of travel
ing and stay-at-home members of the
tribe of Ananias who tell their false
hoods for a variety of reasons.
In the spring it is the custom on cat
tleranch to have round up" and brand
the cattle, so we ara going to have a
'round up" and brand these cattle and
place them in their proper pastures.

An Unhealthy Sion.
Miss Olga Nathersole at a recAy

given in Philadelphia in her honor,
told quaint little story about act
resses.
There was a country girl" she be-
gan, "who laid down her knitting with
a sigh one night and said:
"sAh, mother, how I'd like to be one
Of those great actresses or singers on
the stage
"'Would your said her mother, un-
easily. I don't know. It's an I'M
healthy business, amt ftp
"'Why, is tip asked the daughter.
"'It must be- said the mother.

She started back. Her black eyes

She started back. Her black eyes
blazed scorn and hate upon him.
"You!" she Kissed. "You! Oh,
wretch, serpent fiend!! You, who
claimed to be friend, will give the
command that will send my father to
his DEATH"
"You may prevent it, Jacinta."
81? I can prevent it? How? I
have already knelt in bitter humilia-
ton before your pretender king, and
begged for my fathers life. He spt rned
me. How, then, can | save him."
Il tell you / am to command the
squad that is to shoot him. At noon
nothing can be done. but if it can be
postponed till midnight-if the execu-
ton could be held in the darkness,
much could be done. His letters could
be 1oosened-he could be left free-the
guns could be loaded blank-he could
drop at the fire, and creep away"
"Ah. Pedro!, You will do this? You
will save my fathers life? You love
the Republic STILL"
''No. am an enemy to the Republic.
But love you. For you, and you alone,
I will do this, if you but say the word"
''Word!" Her bosom heaved with
emotion. What do you mean? What
word?"
Promise me that you will be my
wife-it is all [ ask"
She recoiled from him, clasping her
hands over her heart. Painting, she
looked at him helplessly.
But l do not love you," she said.
! 81 know that" he answered. "You
hate me. You despise me. You have
said it a hundred times in your
naughty way. But I do not care for
that. l love you, and must have you.
You have your choice-marriage and
honor with me, your fathers life saved
Or
'Hush!" she said. do not speak Of
it again. l realize it all. But how do
l know you will keep your promise?
You may be as cruel as the others. You
may not save my fathers life"
He smiled.
''Grief has driven reason from you"
he said. "Is it likely, when I wish to
win your love, that my first step In
that direction will be to murder your
father? Besides, my part Of the con-
tract comes first. If | do not sacredly
do my part, you need not keep your
promise"
But is it possible?" she asked. "The
hour is already set for noon. Can it be
changed to midnight"
Il think it can. I have some inf1u-
ence with the king. I will ask this as
a favor, and he will no doubt grant it.
Can you not see, Jacinta, that I am
risking my life for you?"
He turned away, and Jacinta, pre-
serving a calm appearance, went back
to her father.
What had Francisco to say?" asked
Salvarez.
Nothing much, my father" she re-
piled. ''He spoke to me of-of-"
''Of something that will happen
soon?" he asked, referring to his own
death.
mo, father" she answered; "of
something that will never happen"
The suspense was becoming unen-
durable. The girl dared not look at her
fathers calm countenance, lest she be-
tray the true cause of her emotion. She
dared not breathe her hopes-her fears.
'They delay" said Salvarez.
Jacinta heard the ticking Of the
watch in his hand.
With tigerish ferceness she
cIutched and looked at it.
1t was ten minutes after the hour
of noon.
Father" she murmured, reeling.
Saved" and she fell fainting into her
fathers arms.

FIRST PASTURE.

Cooking school teachers-this
includes teachers" who have ap-
piled to us for weekly pay if they
would say something nice" about
Grape-Nuts and Postum, and when
we have declined to hire them to
do this they get waspy and show
their true colors.
This also includes "demonstra-
tors" and lecturers" sent out by
certain Sanitarium to sell foods
made there, and these people in

kered doctOr-the head of the in

word if you like). This same little

many Of the questions as well as
the answers being written by the
aforesaid doctor.
In this column some time ago
appeared the statement: mo, we
cannot recommend the use OF
Grape~Nuts for it is nothing but
bread with glucosep poured over it"
Right then he showed his badge as
a member of the tribe of Ananias.
He may have been a member for
some time before, and so he has
caused these Lecturers" to de-
scend into the ways of the tribe
wherever they go.
When the young lady in New
York put the iron on" to this
teacher" and branded her right
we sent $1,000 to the girl for her
pluck and bravery.

DRIVEN TO HIS DEATH.
Iii-heaith Caused James Dooley to
Commit Suicide.


a dispatch from Ipswich, S. d., says
that James Dooley, a harnessmaker,
who has worked at his trade in Aber-
deem and Ipswich, committed suicide by
hanging in cell of the county Jail at
Ipswich this morning. Dooley had been
working for the Aberdeen Harness COM
pany, and came to Ipswich Tuesday
morning to take charge of shop. Dur
ing fit of temporary insanity he at
tempted to commit suicide at hotel
Tuesday night by cutting his throat
with pocket knife, but was prevented
by the landlord and some of the board
ers. He apparently had mania for
self destruction, and the marshal placed
him in cell of the Jail. He was oper
ated on for appendicitis at the hospital
at Aberdeen last winter, and since then
has worn a long 3-inch bandage around
the body. Some time during the night
he took this off and tied it to the bars
of the cell and was found dead by the
iailer this morning.

ercise of the taxation power by the
state legislature to the end that in.
capabilities in taxation may be overcome.

road and bridge fund and authorizing
the legislature to levy an annual tax to
construct and improve roads and bridges
in the state.
Third. Amendment providing that any
person may sell or peddle the products

JOHN WELL PLEASED
Governor Dee-lighted With
Rate Reduction.

st. Paul, Aug. "a Governor Johnson
has returned from the east where he
has been the past week and he announced
himself as gratified with the result of
the conference between himself and the
railway commission last Thursday, which
was followed on Saturday with volun-
tary cut of 10 per copt in grain rates on
the part of the three northern roads.
81 learned of the action of the three
companies at Chicago while en- route
east
1.-The commission is to be congratulated
on the outcome. 1t shows what a firm
stand can do, and | now hope that they
will take just as determined a position
on other classes of freight.
"What pleases me is the determination
of the commission to make no conces-
| sion in return, but to continue the hear
ings on their merits. This cannot but
mean additional relief to the shippers
and consumers of Minnesota.
Il knew the roads, if they were able
to make the cut on the basis of a COM
promise, could do it anyway, and that
was why / insisted that they be forced
to do so.
What l would like to see now is a
! voluntary cut in coal rates.
with the farmers of this state par
TALLY provided for the people of our
cities and towns should have relief also.
Goal rates in Minnesota are too high
and should be reduced and / hope the
commission will push the hearings GOV.
ering this commodity to a satisfactory
conclusion. | will do all / can to help
it along.
Goal is the very foundation of our in
dcstrial prosperity and future and any.
thing that aids in cheapening it only
adds to that prosperity. There is an
immense amount of hoal consumed in
this state. The farmer uses it as well
as the city man, and both would be
benefited by reduction in the rate.
"The reduction is bound to come II
the roads do not give it voluntarily they
will be forced"

a meeting of the executive committee
of the international Policyholders as
ISOLATION which is now engaged in try
ing to give the three big eastern life in
surance companies an honest board Of
directors. The list of directors he saws
was practically agreed upon and will be
made public shortly. Gov. johnson was
asked to name two from Minneapolis
which he did. The two Minnesota direc
tors are taken from st. Paul and Min.
neapolis, but their names are withheld
for the present. The next meeting OF
the association will likely be held in
Chicago.

SIZING up THE CROPS.
George Sugden Takes . Trip Into
Brown County.

George w. Sugden, cashier OF the Ma
tional Citizens bank of Mankato, one
of the strongest banks in this portion of
Minnesota, was in this city Wednesday
evening and portion of Thursday, says
The New UIm Journal. He was on a
tour of inspection of the crop condition
in this vicinity and had driven over a
large portion of the rural districts trib-
utary to New Ulm on Wednesday in
search of, information. He was eonsid-
erably disappointed with the outlook
and stated if there was half yield OF
wheat, conditions would be better than
they warranted at the present time. He
also stated he was of the opinion crop
conditions. were better in Blue Earth
county than they were in Brown. Mr.
Sugden made a trip up through several
adjoining counties the latter portion OF
this week viewing crop conditions and
stated upon his return that the outlook
was very poor.
