change from daylight to darkness was
significant. With this suspicion in my
mind, took the trouble to learn whom
he had chosen to form the firing squad

you may be sure. Could it be possible
that he has promised to let Salvarez
escape to gain the girls love-"
1T could be done if Francisco wished
to do it,"
But he must not be allowed to do it.
III must be your work to take a dozen
or your men--men who are not friend
ly TO Francisco-and watch, without
being watched. That is. secrete your
selves some time before midnight
where you can see the execution. Give
Francisco plenty of time to prove his
treachery. If he allows Salvarez to es-
cape, see that the rebel general is at
once killed and arrest Francisco and
bring him before the king"
That is easily done"
Then do it,

And keep your own counsel Do
not allow Francisco to know that we

CHAPTER XIV.
The Barred Window.


That evening was dark and cloudy
BY nine O'Clock the largest object
would not cast shadow.
Jacinta, still weak after the exhaust
ing excitement of the day. waited al
most breathlessly for the midnight
hour to come for it was by this time
certain that the plan of francisco WAS
working to perfection. But, so
strangely are women constituted. even
as she rejoiced in the fact that her
fathers life was to he saved, she be-
gan to rebel against the fulfillment of
the promise that had made his saliva
ton possible.
She loathed and despised Francisco,
whom she knew to be man of low
and brutal tastes, small, mean soul.
and her heart grew sick when she
thought of the future that must now
be hers-bound to man upon whom
she would look only with loathing and
contempt.
And as her mind dwelt on the short
comings and evil character of the man
who was destined to be her husband,
there rose before her the picture of the
handsome young American who had
rescued her from Francisco's evil
hands.
There was a man she could have
loved
HE loves another" she said to her
self. And that other is to be married
to the hateful conqueror. All. if |
were free. why might not the American
love me?"
She cast aside her gloomy thoughts
and went to the window, where, press.
ing her tear-stained face against the
bars, she peered out into the starless
night. A slight rustling sonnd beneath
the window startled her. she took a
step backward in sudden fear
She listened intently. What was
that A whisper. she listened again.
This time there could be no doubt.
A voice came out of the darkness,
whispering, almost wlistl:ng the name,
"Salvarez"
Are you the daughter of General
Salvarez:" came the voica.
Yes, yes" she replied. I'VE are
prisoners. thought you We're also
taken"
so We were," replied Medworth,
"hut Tempest and escaped"
you will be captured, said Jacinta,
really alarmed for him. why do you
not remain hidden?"
II came to warn your fataers-to
save him." was the reply.
Jacinta's breath came hard She
strained her eyes, and by the aid Of
what little light escaped through the
window she saw the handsome face of
the American upturned to hers.
ITO save my father!" she exclaimed.
Brave friend! But he is already
safe"
No. he is not" said Medworth 81
know what you mean. You promised
to marry Francisco-''
II athe-hate-despise him." whis-
pered Jacinta.
Perhaps you do said Medworth. in
reply to her remark about Francisco.

your father # you consented to be his

TIsETAN DEATH DANCES.
Ceremony Of tho sacriHcial Body OF
the Dead Year"


the Dead Year"
Very strange performances aTo the
death dances of the Tibetan mystery
plays, one of which is performed on the
.ast three days of the year and is called
the ceremony of the sacriticial body
OF the dead year" The effigy of
man made out of dough as lifelike as
possible and having inside a distinct
heart and all the entrails filled with
red fluid, is placed by four cemetery
ghouls in sight of the numerous spec
tators in the center of the yard, and
ut once bands of skeleton ghosts rush
upon the corpse to attack it. This Is
the time to display the necromatic
power Of Lamaism over the evil spirits.
Monks and lamas come forth and go
through a series of ceremonies, the
magic effect Of which keeps the fiends
away. But more formidable devil,
with great horns and possessed of SUI
peflor powers, makes his appearance
and takes the field. Whereupon saint
or an incarnation OF Buddha himself
comes to the rescue, sprays flour on
the enemy, makes mystic signs and
utters lamentations. The skeleton
ghosts and the big fiend grovel before
him and implore mercy. He gracious
~ yields to their supplications and al
lows them to partake of a sacramental
meal. While they kneel before him
he gives to each one of them a little
flour to eat and a drink out of a vessel
of holy water. This concludes the days
performance. The corpse however. is
not destined to be preserved On the
next day the fight is renewed, and after
cannonade with blessed mustard seed
and other eXorcisms, an awful demon
appears whose title is the Holy King
or Religion He wears the head of
bull, a dagger in the right and the
ethsy of human heart in the left
hand This strange figure seems to
represent the main deity of the ancient
llbetans when they were still in the
hao1t of Offering human sacrifices. not

Is now satisfied with human sacrifices

Delng supposed to be an enemy of I'll

round the figure of the man on the
ground, stabs him, binds his feet i'm a
snare. and at last cuts off his limbs,
Sits open his breast, takes out his
bleeding heart, lungs, and other intes-
tlnes. At this moment a horde of
monsters falls upon the remnants of
ehe dlsmembered dough-man and scat
tiers them in all directions. The pieces
are collected again in silver basin and

What Her Five Fast Battleships Could

What Her Five Fast Battleships Could
Do to This Country.
We are not accustomed to consider
Italy very much of a naval power; yet
the five battleships OF 20 knots and
better that she has built or building
might make us endless trouble if we
were so unfortunate as to have them
against lis. They could range our
whole coast, destroying everything
afioat except our battleships and our
fastest cruisers, and remaining them
selves in absolute obscurity. They
could cut off aid trade between the Uni
ted States, Cuba and Porto Rico. They
could wreck the entrance of the Mic
aragua canal, if that were finished.
They could go through the Suez canal,
harry our naval force at Manila and
rekindle the insurrection in the Phil
ippines. They could loot our coaling
station at TutGila. carry off our gov
ernor from Guam, as the Charleston
did to the Spaniards, and wreck our
trade with Hawaii. They could devas-
tate our Pacific coast. ruin the shore
mines at Nome and capture the gold
fleet from Alaska. No battleships that
we could send in pursuit of them could
catch them. The only things with
which we could hope to bring them to
an engagement would be our new ar
mored cruisers, and it might be that
these commerce destroyers, without a
gun heavier than eight-inch, and with
only six inches of armor but with the
all-important quality of speed, would
save us from danger before which
our ponderous battleships would lie
