Her arms relaxed, and placing her on
me seat, after one more embrace the
young man hurried down the path.
Then came the battle. Las Quasi
mas, Ell Caney and others. AS the
news was received with list Of killed
and wounded, though her lovers name
was not among them, each report gave
Evelyn blow from which she failed
70 rebound. May there not be love SO
strong that 1t reaches beyond things
material, cropping into what is spirit
uali If Evelyn saw death in the fu-
ture she said nothing of 1t; the only
evidence of presentiment was the CON
slant and increasing blight. Letters
came with as much regularity as could
be expected from soldier in the field.
Frequently number would come To-
gether, when Evelyn would shut herself
IN her room or 90 down to the seat
where she had parted with Victor and
read them again and again.
Her father watched her anxiously.
He did all he could to divert her mind.
but he could not do much and what he
did was without effect. He dreaded to
have her go to the parting and ex-
pected trysting place, for when she re-
turned she was always the more droop-
Ing. Finally. when the Spaniards sur
rendered and all was over, she sur
prised him by not going to the place
at all.
/ Just before the end Victor wrote that
be had been ordered ON a duty which
would prevent his sending letters with
any regularity. From that time no
news came from him. while the troops
sailed for home, and one day feet OF
transports appeared on the horizon.
Evelyn watched them first with glass,
then with her naked eyes while they
approached. and saw them pass on TO
the eastward They were making for
Montauk Point
Toward evening Evelyn went to the
trysting place. She did not return at
dusk and her father went to look for
her. X had grown so dark that he
could not see plainly, and he called to
her There was no reply. Seeing
something white on the rustic seat the
old man, sure II was his daughter,
called again, but still there was no
reply. Reaching the place. there was
Evelyn sitting on the seat, her back
supported between two of the trees.
MY daughter exclaimed the old
man, what Is the natter why did
you not answer"
Still she did not speak. and, grasplng
her hand, he found 1t cold She was
dead
In time news came from Victor
Paine. He had been in the interior OF
the island when the surrender came
and knew nothing Of the peace that
was to come. His little band was SUR
prised by Spaniards and every man
killed
Who knows but that she may have
met him In The spirit and gone with
him to brilalof death?

Porto Rico has its problems, social.
political and economic but none Of

Fowles' recent Book, "Down In Porto

either she is accompanied by servant

Among the men there Is the same con

but they are very careful not to de-

employee. Business men do not carry
bundles home at night. They seldom
lend hand when some little mishap
occurs or when repairs are needed.
They are gentlemen. and mental tasks
are for common workmen.
The same spirit Is shown among the
mechanics. When plumber is sent
for he usually comes attended by his
man. His business Is to tell the man
what to do, while he himself stands by

go out to work upon his farm. He

OMAHA JEWELER ROBBED.
One Of the Bandits Caught With $4,000
of Loot.

Omaha, Dec. 1.-Two robbers en-
tered the %pawnshop and jewelry store
OF Joe Sonnenberg, 1906 Douglas
street, at $3.50 a. m, bound the pro-
prietor and a clerk with ropes, laid
them to one side, robbed the store of
IS, 5000 worth of jewelry and both were
about to make their escape when Sam
Gross, a fireman, gave chase, catching
one of them, the other getting away.
Fortunately, the captive was the one
who had the booty, so the jeweler is
out nothing.
The robbers were Ed Elliott and
James Wilson, both OF Denver and
known to the police as desperate
characters. Elliott was captured.
They entered the store at a time when
business for the day had scarcely be-
gun. They confronted Sonnenberg
and Michael Morrisey, his clerk, with
revolvers, then bound them and rifle
three safes The robbery, perpetrated
in broad daylight, created the great.
est excitement. Police and fire
alarms were turned in and members
of both departments were soon upon
the scene.
Wilson escaped, but Elliott was cap
tured after a running fight, during
which several shots were exchanged
between Wilson and Sam Gross, who
gave chase. The robbers separated
and Gross, followed by a crowd OF
nearly 200 persons, ran down Elliott
at the Cambridge hotel. Elliott ran
into a room in the basement of the
hotel and crept under a bed and was
hauled from his hiding place by De
toctiye Heitteldt.
