by Judge Runyon.

New Providence.
Monmouth for Machine.
Monmouth county voters have APP
parently shown their preference for
the republican machines delegates.
The defeated Colby delegates ia
vored the nomination for assembly of
William H. Barnard, once a noted
halfback on the Princeton university
football team; Rufus S. Merritt and
William H. Reid.
Late estimates give the Colbyites
about twenty of the ITO delegates in
Monmouth. Both sides are claiming

In Asbury Park the first count in
the first ward showed two to one for
W.. III. Barnard, the Colby assembly
candidate; Clarence Hetrick, Colby
candidate for city treasurer of As
bury Park, is undoubtedly nominated
by a large majority. All the Colby
candidates ran well in the township.
In Long Branch the Colbyites fail
ed in all the wards but one.
In Red Bank the regulars won.
Marel1i Fails in Passaic.
Republicans of Passaic county have
chosen delegates favorable to the
nomination of the regulars ticket
for state senator. Wood Mckee, and
five assemblymen. The Colby ticket
was For senator, Henry Marelli,
present assemblyman; for assembly,
Henry G. Whitehead, John j. Sloate,
Samuel McCoid, Gustav A. Hunziker,
and Walter S. Hudson.
Passaic county, a late estimate has
it, has elected fifty Colby delegates
out of ZIG delegates.
The contests in many Of the dis
tricts were close.
A surprising feature of the returns
was the carrying of the third district
of the eighth ward in Paterson by
the Colbyites. 1t is unlikely that the
Colby ticket will carry more than five
districts out of forty districts in Pat
erson.
Robbins in Burlington.
Burlington county's new idea" adj
h%erents, led by General E. Burd
Grubb, were defeated in their battle
against the republican machine.
THE new IDEAS candidate for
state senator was George G. Wildes,
of New Egypt, a former assembly
man and well to do farmer, and the
new idea" candidates for assembly
were DR.. e. S. Adams, former mayor
of Beverly, and Frank A. Tichenor.

They could go through the Suez canal,
harry our naval force at Manila and
rekindle the instruction in the Phil

did to the Spaniards, and wreck our
trade with Hawaii. They could devas-

mines at Nome and capture the gold
fleet from Alaska. No battleships that

which we could hope to bring them to

thing in this request of his to have the
execution Of Salvarez delayed till mid
night that makes me doubt him. The
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.
They are. to man, picked friends of
his. There is some treachery afoot,
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.
1t must be your work to take a dozen
of 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."
II will"
"And keep your own counsel. Do
not allow Francisco to know that we
suspect him."
"You may trust me-" said the cap

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 be 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 a 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 I
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 sound 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 whistl:ng the name,
"Salvarez."

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.
