l have so long waited and yearned for.
the ripening fruit that I have watched
from afar, shall be mine, mine. and
you shall learn that it is better to be
the sQuaw Of an lroquois chief than
the lover, mistress, or wife Of the
bravest swashbuckler or roisterer on
earth"
A snarl as of some maddened ami
NAL goaded beyond endurance escaped
from Tonti, and with a spring he had
clutched his adversary by the throat
with one hand, while with his up
raised iron member he was about to
deal a blow that no human frame could
resist, when he was quickly seized and
torn away by two warriors, who, hear
ing the excited tones Of their chieftain,
had entered in time to saw him.
The comte stood gasping, feeling his
throat where the imprint Of Tonti's
fingers were visible.
Tonti's breast heaved from the sud-
den fierce exertion, and as he stood
held by each out-stretched arm, his
figure tense from the effort to free
himself, he flung defiance at his ad-
versary:
"Hell-hound! fiend! renegade! do
you seek to terrify me with your men
acing words? Am Ia child to be
frightened by the sight of your ugly
face? What care I for the horde of
painted devils at your back, surround
ed by those who obey your call? Here,
defenseless, in the midst of your allies
and friends, l say do your worst, tor
| ture me If you will, but l shall still
defy you. Know this as well, that all
your plans shall be for naught! that I
| shall conquer yet, and escaping, shall
| return to wreak my vengeance"
The comte had now regained his
| power Of speech.
"Silence, vain braggart! Escape?
| Thanks for the word; it reminds me
that I must separate you lest you kill
one another and I shall find you cold in
| each others arms. I will fetch my
squaw and she will lead my lady yon-
der to q fairer bower" And motion
ing to the two men who held Tonti to
release him, he strobe through the
door with them at his heels.
Renee. who throughout the inter-
view had remained m~otionless, now
ran lightly to Tonti.
"Ah! M. Tonti," she exclaimed in an
alarmed tone, what shall we do?
Why have you a second time provoked
this man and reused the hatred Of one
who cannot stoop too low to gain his
ends? Had you been calm he might
have been prevailed upon to allow
you to go unmolested. Now he will
never be satisfied until he kills you,
1t was brave; 1t was noble; 1t was
magnificent; but was 1t wiser"
"Ah! mademoiselle," said Tonti with
a shade of reproach in his voice. chow
could I remain calm beneath his In
suits to you? You, whose honor ]
would defend with my last drop Of
blood, whose safety Is my one thought
for whom / would face a hundred saw

stood with one hand involuntarlly

One of the grandest advantages of

. condition whose value can scarcely be
exaggerated that the welfare of this
region Is dependent on no single in

number OF baskets In which to carry

are the localities Of similar area which
have such diversity Of resources.
Agriculture, mining, numbering. fruit

sbeir more or less developed stages.
are all industries which belong to
Josephine county and In each line
there are wealth bringing posi- bilities
far beyond the present attainment
This advantageous diversity OF re.
sources Is due very greatly to the pc.

Southern Oregon, conditions more
typical in Josephine than in any other
