SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS
CHAPTER 1.-The relations be,
tween Graustark, small and isolated
principality, and Axphain, to the north
and Dawsbergen, TO the south of it,,
have become strained. Prince Gabriel,
a half brother of the reigniag prince
of Dawsbergen, imprisoned 10 Grau-
stark for the assassination of Prince
Lorenz, of Axphain, has escaped ana
seized the throne of Dawsbergen. AK
phain demands the immediate recap
ture of the escaped prince. Princess
Yetive, of Graustark (the wife of an
American, one Grenfall Lorrv) who
has been sojourning in Washington,
upon the receipt of this news, leaves
for home. IT-Beverly Calhoun,
daughter of United States senator, is
an intimate friend of the princess.
She obtains the consent of her father
to visit ST. Petersburg. III-Attended
by guard of Cossacks, Beverly leaves
st. Petersburg for Graustark. while
passing through Axphain the Cossacks
hear that the Axphainians believe
their charge 10 be the Princess Yetive
and have laid plans to intercept the
coach. The terror inspired by this in
formation and the sound of shooting
cause the Cossacks and even the coach
man to abandon her. IVA troop of
ragged, half starved men emerge from
the mountain shadows. The leader,
whospeaks English we'll, tells Beverly
that they are goat hunters. These
men believe that she is the Princess
Yetive and offer to escort her to the
borders of Graustark. This leads Bev-
erly to pose as the princess and accept
the offer. V-They camp in the
mountains. Treasured by their court
esq, Beverly dimes with the men. VI
In rescuing Beverly from a mountain
lion Baldos is accidentally shot by
Beverly, who has fired at the beast.
XII-Haste is now made toward the
Graustark frontier. The condition of
Baldos necessitates his riding in the
coach with Beverly. XIil-On the
Journey Baldos contracts high fever,
and the pseudo princess persuades him,
despite his strong objections, to enter
her domains for medical attention. At
the frontier town of Ganlook, Beverly,
still posing as the princess, demands to
see Baron Dangloss, chief of police.
She is greatly surprised when the chief
tells her who she is.

Reinbeck, Dec. 15.-There are about

yards in this vicinity. There are nc
sheep to speak of being fed in this To-
cality.
Speculation has had no effect on our
farmers or business men, as far as we
can see for the very good reason that
bank deposits in this locality are bet
ter than we have ever known them in
the history of the country. Pros
pectively speaking we look forward to
the year 1907 as among the brightest
we have ever anticipated.
Crops have been good the past year.
the farmers yards are full of cattle
and hogs, corn cribs are full to over
flowing, everything in fact. that the
farmer has to offer is bringing good
money, and he has money to spend.
The business men are likewise enjoy
ing their share of prosperity. Why
should we not therefore anticipate good

McCallsburg, Dec. 15.-The farmers

number of cattle fed this year falls
short about % per cent of the average
as compared with the number fed dur
ing each of the past five years.
There are no sheep being fed here
this season. Regarding the land spec
ulation will say that there have been
few farms sold locally, and all that
have been sold this year have been sold
at high price compared with prices
that we have been unused to before.
Land is steadily advancing in price.
Fany of the farmers here have invest
ed in South Dakota lands and large
amount of money has been taken out
of this territory on that account, but
nevertheless lands here at home are in
good demand and prices advancing ana

The farmers here are very prosper

that they ever had, prices are good ana
