CHAPTER XVI.

| will not weary the reader with our
further proceedings. Suffice to say we
marshaled our host and marched down to
the Piazza. The news had spread by
now, and in the dimly breaking morning
light we saw the Square full OF people
men, women and children. AS we march
ed In there was a cheer, not very hearty
"a cheer propitiatory. for they did not
know what we meant to do. The Colonel
made them brief speech, promising
peace, security, liberty, plenty and all
the goods of heaven. In a few stern
words he cautioned them against "treach-
ery," and announced that any rebellion
against the Provisional government would
meet with swift punishment. Then he
posted his army In companies. to keep
watch till all was quiet. And at last he
said:
"Now, Martin, come back to the Golden
House, and let's put that fellow in safe
place."
"Yes," said I, and have look for the
money" For really In the excitement 1t
seemed as II there was a danger Of the
most important thing Of all being for
gotten.
as we left the Piazza, we could see the
Golden House at the other end Of the
avenue. All looked quiet, and the SEN
tries were pacing to and fro. Drawing
nearer, we saw two or three Of the Presi-
dents servants busted about their ordi-
nary tasks. One woman was already re-
moving Johnny Cars life-blood with a
mop and a pail of water; and a carpenter
was at work repairing the front door.
Standing by It was a doctors brougham.
Come to see Carr, I suppose" said I.
Leaving our horses to the care Of the
men who were with US, we entered the
house. Just inside we met the doctor him
self. He was a shrewd little fellow, man,
ed Anderson, generally popular, and, al
though a personal friend of the Presi-
dents, not openly identified with either
political party.
al have a request to make to you, sir
he said to McGregor, about Mr.. Carr"
"well, Is he deadf" said the Colonel
'If he Is, he's got himself to thank fol-
It."
The doctor wisely declined to discuss
this question, and confined himself tc
stating that he was not dead. On the
contrary he was going on nicely.
"But" he went on, quiet Is essential
and want to take him to my house, ou
of the racket. No doubt 1t is pretty
quiet here now, but"
The Colonel interrupted:

CHAPTER XVII.
The habit of reading having penetrat-
ed, as we are told, to all classes of the
community, / am not without hope that
some who peruse this chronicle will be
able, from personal experience, to under
stand the feelings of man when he first
finds a reward offered for his apprehen-
sion. 1t is true that our police are not
in the habit of initiating the Presidents
naked brutality by expressly adding
"alive or Dead" but I am informed that
the law, in case of need, leaves the alter
native open to the servants of justice.
am not ashamed to confess that my spirits
were rather dashed by his excellency's
Parthian shot, and could see that the
Colonel himself was no less perturbed.
The escape Of Fleance seemed to Mac
beth to render his whole position unsafe,
and no one who knew General whiting
ham will doubt that he was a more dan
gerous opponent than Fleance. We both
felt, in fact, as soon as we saw the white
sail OF The Songstress bearing our enemy
out OF our reach, that the revolution
could not yet be regarded as safely accom-.
plished. But the uncertainty of our ten.
ure of power did not paralyze our ener
gies; on the contrary, we determined tt
make hay while the sun shone, and, L
Aureataland was doomed to succumb onct
more to the tyranny, l, for one, was very
clear that her temporary emancipation
might be turned to good account.
Accordingly, on arriving again at the
Golden House, we lost no time in insti
tuting thorough inquiry into the stat
of the public finances. We ransacked tn,
house from top to bottom and found moth
ing! Was 1t possible that the President
had carried off with him all the treas
ure that had inspired our patriotic ef
forts? The thought was too horrible. The
drawers of his escritoire and the safe that
stood in his library revealed nothing t.
our eager eyes, A foraging party, dis
| patched to the ministry of finance (where
| by the way, they did not find Don Anto
| MO or his fair daughter), returned with
| the discouraging news that nothing wal
visible but ledgers and bills. In deeI
detection l threw myself into his excel
| lency's chair with the doieful reflection
that this pleasure seemed all was likely
to get out of the business. The Colone
stood moodily with his back to. the FIRE
| place, looking at me as If were respon
sible for the state of things.
| At this point in came the Signorina
| We greeted her gloomily, and she was a
startled as ourselves at the news of tn
| Presidents escape; at the same time
thought I detected an undercurrent of re
lief. When, however, we went on t
break to her the nakedness of the land
she stopped us at once.
| "Oh, you stupid men, you haven't look
ed in the right place. l suppose you Nex
pected to find 1t laid out for you on tn
dining room table. Come with me-"
We followed her into the room wher
Carr lay. He was awake, and the Sig
norma went and asked him how he was

UNIQUE JOURNALISTIC MISSION.
FRED Sawyer OFF for China to Study
History.

what is perhaps, the most unique
journalistic mission ever performed is
to be undertaken by Frederick A. Saw
yer, or Cincinnati, O., who passed
down the 0. r. N. this morning to
Portland, from where he will go to
Victoria, to take a steamer to China
next week, says the East Oregonian.
Mr.. Sawyer is a retired newspaper
man with means and will go to China
to study the history of journalism in
that country for the purpose of writ
ing a book upon the subject.
He will delve into the ancient his
tory of the empire and secure data as
far back as possible concerning the
newspapers, periodicals and regular
publications of that country. 1t is his
intention to donate a portion of the
royalties on the book to the depart
ment of journalism recently instituted
in Columbia college, New York.
He expects to be absent two years
in the Orient and after making re-
searches in China will also study pour
nalistic methods and development in
Japan.

Primaries in Illinois.

CHICAGO, H., Aug. 4.-The first
general primaries under the new prim-
airy law passed by the last Legislature
are being held throughout the state
today. The law is very strict and
provides that all those entitled to
vote at primaries shall be given an OPP
portunity to cast their votes This is
the first time that a direct vote is
cast for United States senator. Senator
Shelby M. Cullon, who is running for
reelection, has established a record at
the present campaign, by abstaining
from canvassing the state. He did not
deliver a single speech during the en-
tire campaign IF the people are for
me-" he said, Il will be reelected, if
they are not, | won't be, and that is
all there is to it." 1t is stated on good
authority that there is little doubt Of
Senator Cullom's reelection.

"a we'll is no place for a man

at Five Mile yesterday, says The
Dalles Chronicle. John knows where
of he speaks. He has lived out on
the same place for perhaps twenty
two years, but since his wifes death
has been the sole occupant of the
farm. Several times he had gone
down into the we'll when necessity
required it, pulling himself up by a
rope attached to something above;
but this athletic stunt had not been
performed during recent years.
Strength Gives Out.
Last week a lead trough fell into the

with not misgiving, let himself down
into the water, which was almost two

Of a sudden he realized that he had
grown older and with age his strength
had flown. There was no use to call for
help, for none was near, and he feared
he must die there alone.
After a time he conceived the idea
of using his knife to make fOOthOldS,
and, with the help of the rope, make
his way out. This was hard work, but
he finally succeeded, and after four
hours of Imprisonment he emerged
almost completely exhausted.
