"Then why do you wonder when [
speak Of the faithlessness OF my first
queen? Was it not yourself that gave
to me the proofs of her infdelity? Did
you not show to me that she had
fallen?"
You speak in riddles" said the
king Of Aleppo Il remember that we
once suspected the young queen of be-
slowing her love upon a captain Of

Yes" responded Horam. "Jabal was
the man, and | slew him. 1t was your
evidence that convicted both him and
Helena"
and was the queen guilty after
that?"
Guilty after that?" repeated Ho-
ram, slowly and irresolutely. What

"Never-saw-them. Good spirits Of

What is it, Omar?"

Innocent" gasped Horam, starting
to his feet, and then sinking back
again.
Yes, my brother" replied Omar, in
trembling tones, 'she was as innocent
as in that natal hour when first she
rested upon her mothers bosom. At
Balbec we found a woman whom
some of my officers brought before me
supposing her to be the queen of Da-
mascus. She was very beautiful, and
so nearly did she resemble the queen,
Helena, that even | was at first de-
ceived. Her name was Jasmin, and
she told me that she had just fed
from Damascus and was waiting for
her lover to join her. She said that
Jabal was her lover, and that he was
captain of Horam's guard. The
truth flashed upon me In moment. +
conversed with her until ! had gained
her whole story; and then I knew that
your queen was innocent. 1t was all
proved to me, as clear as the sun at

returning myself, and bearing to you
the joyful tidings; but business urged
me on and l sent Sanballad and Ben

"And they did not come" uttered
Horam, with his hands working ner-
vously in his bosom. They did not
come-and my queen died"

Prescott Contractor Is Commended By
 Phoenix
Installed Steam Heating System At Tempe
 Normal
(From Sundays Daily.)


 The last payment has just been made by the board of trustees of the Tempe Normal school to J. II. Null. rein, the Prescott contractor, for the installation of the steam heating sys. tenn at the Tempe school. This pay. mcnt IS the last one of number the sum total of which amounted to $l5,. 29s. The plant which was installed has been in operation for over month and has given most satisfactory results not only to the school management but also to Mir. Mulrcin, who has watched it closely up to week ago when he left Tempe for his home m Phoenix.
 The system is what Is known as the Webster low pressure steam heating system, a plan of mechanism in which one pound of steam makes the heat for the whole group of five buildings. The usual soot and dirt connected with n large heating plant is avoided by the use of oil as fuel in the boilers. At times during its construction Mir. Mul. rein had as many as fifteen men at work on the contract and while it was completed promptly on the time called for in the bid some time was lost af. ter the work had been commenced by a delay in securing part of the material occasioned by washouts on the rail. roads. P. F.. Fuller of Mesa had the immediate direction and supervision of the work and as completed it is a credit to him, to the board of trustees and to the contractor, Mir. Mulrcin.
 With the completion of the Tempe school heating system, it is thorough. ly demonstrated that Arizona has con. tractor who is capable of installing plants of the design and size of the one above referred to, a class of work that has heretofore gone to coast con. tractors. As the patronizing of home industry is what builds up a common wealth, no doubt in the near future this Arizona contractor will get all the Ari. zona work of this character for his prompt and careful work at Tempe eeY. tainly entities him to it.-Phoenix Re. publican.

TAPS RICH STREAK.
John bryant's Luck in the Thumb
 Butte District.
(From Sundays Daily.)

John Bryant, the veteran miner and prospector, came in yesterday from his mining camp in the Thumb Butte dis. trict. He is the owner of several pro missing properties in that section. Re. gently while doing assessment work on claim on the divide between Thumb Butte and Copper Basin he struck a very rich streak of ore which assays high in gold and silver and is making preparations to start sinking on hi. property. He encountered the rich rock at depth of ten feet. The vein is widening out, and he expects to make shipment of ore from 1t in \ short time.
