MRS. NELLIE GRANT sARToR1s.

Joined in wedlock in the East Room of
the White House in the presence of
more than two hundred distinguished
persons, including the representatives
of the foreign governments, officers of
the army and navy, etc.
Mr.. Sartoris had been educated in
England and Germany and was the
son of Mr.. Edward Sartoris, of Hamp-
shire, England, and his wife, Adelaide
Kemble, daughter of Charles and sister
of Fanny Kemble, well known to the
stage. Prior to the marriage the
groom assured General Grant of hts
entire willingness to reside with his
bride in the United States, but soon
after the wedding his brother in Eng
land died most unexpectedly and he
was virtually obliged to return to his
native land to assume the management
of the family estates. President and

which told of their easy, unchanging
existence. Then he turned his eager
gaze upon the pale-faced monk who
faced him.
"This plant is thine, as I learn,
Brother Ambrose" said he. Bring
in Brother John, and let him hear the
plants urged against him."
At this order a lay-brother swung
open the door. and two other lay
brothers entered, leading between
them a young novice of the order.
He was man of huge stature, dark
eyed and red-headed, with peculiar
half humorous, half defiant expression
upon his bold. well-marked features.
His cowl was thrown back upon his
shoulders, and his gown, unfastened
Amador ledger., 1906-06-29
CHAPTER 1.

A
The great bell of Beaulieu was ring
ing. Far away through the forest
might be heard it's musical clangOr
and swell Peat cutters on Blackdown
and fishers upon the Exc heard the
distant throbbing and falling upon the
sultry summer air. 1t was common
sound in those parts-as common as
the chatter of the jays and the boom
ing of the bittern. Yet the fishers and
the peasants raised their heads and
looked questions at each other, for the
Angelus had already gone and Vespers
was still far off. Why should the
great bell of Beaulieu toll when the
shadows were neither ,ort nor long?
All round the Abbey tie monks
were trooping in. Under the long,
green-paved avenues of gnarled oaks
and of lichened beeches the white
robed brothers gathered to the sound.
1t had been no sudden CALL A swift
messenger had the night Lefore sped
round to the outlying dependencies Of
the Abbey, and had left the summons
for every monk to be back in the
cloisters by the third hour after noon
tide. So urgent a message had not
been issued within the memory Of old
Lay-Brother Athanasius, who had
cleaned the knocker since the year
after the Battle of Bannackburn.
Meanwhile, in the broad an lofty
chamber set apart for occasions Of
import, the Abbot himself was pacing
impatiently backward and forward,
with his long, white, nervous hands
clasped in front of hilA. His thin,
| !,
haggard cheeks bespoke one who had
indeed beaten down that inner foe
whom every man must face, but had
none the less suffered sorely in the
contest. In crushing hi passions he
had well-nigh crushed himself. Yet,
frail as was his person, there cleaned
out ever and anon from under his
dropping brows a flash Of fierce energy
which recalled to mems minds that he
came of a fighting stock, and that even
now his twin brother, Sir Bartholomew
Berghersh, was one of the most ia
nous of those stern warriors who had
planted the Cross of st George before
the gates of Paris. With lips COM
pressed and clouded brow, he strode
up and down the oaken floor, the very
impersonation of asceticism, while
the great bell still thundered and
changed above his head. At last the
uproar died away in three last meas
ured throbs, and ere their echo had
ceased the Abbot struck small gong
which summoned a lay-brother to his
presence.
"Where is the master Of the nov
ices?'
"He is without, most holy father"
"Send him hither."
The sandalled feet clattered over the
wooden floor, and the iron-bound
door creaked upon its hinges. In a
few moments it opened again to ad-
NIT a short, square monk with a
heavy, composed face and author
itative manner.
"You have sent for me. holy
father?"
"Yes, Brother Jerome, 1 wish that
this matter be disposed of with as
little scandal as may be; and yet it is
needful that the example should be a
public one."'
"It would perchance be best that the
lnovices be not admitted" suggested the
master. "This mention of a woman
may turn their minds from their pious
meditations to worldly and evil
thoughts"
woman! womanw groaned the
Abbot. "Wen has the holy Chrys.

From Eve downward, what good hath

cit is Brother Ambrose"
ga holy and devout young man."
"a light and pattern to every nov
ice."
"Let the matter be brought to an
issue, then, according to our old-time
monastic habit Bid the chancellor
and the sub-chancellor lead in the
brothers according to age, together
with Brother John the accused and
Brother Ambrose the accuser."
"And the novices?'
"Let them bide in the north alley
of the cloister. Stay! Bid the sub
chancellor send out to them Thomas
the lector to read unto them from the
'Gesta beati Benedict 1t may save
them from foolish and pernicious
babbling."
The Abbot was left to himself once
more, and bent his thin gray face over
his Illuminated breviary. So he re-
mained while the senior monks filed
slowly and sedately into the chamber,
seating themselves upon the long
oaken benches which lined the wall
on either side. At the further end, in
two high chairs as large as that of the
Abbot, though hardly so elaborately
carved, sat the master of the noyices
and the chancellor, the latter a broad
and portly priest, with dark, mirth-
full eyes and a thick outgrowth Of
crisp black hair all round his tonsured
head. Between them stood a lean,
white-faced brother who appeared to
be ill at ease, shifting his feet from
side to side and tapping his chin with
the long parchment roll which he held
in his hand. The Abbot, from his
point of vantage, looked down on the
two long lines of faces, placid and SUM-
Drowned for the most part, with the

to produce the maximum yield Of
which the land is capable. A few
years ago the man who would have
said that 10 acres of farm land was
sufficient area for man to make a
good living from would have been
looked upon as crank. Now there
are thousands of little 10 acre and even
5 acre farms from which men are
making more money than many
others are from attempting to till 20
times that amount. That 10 acres,
under favorable conditions, will pro-
duce a living is recognized in a bill
which has just been passed by the
House of Representatives and which
will likely be passed by the Senate at
this session. 1t is an amendment to
the National Irrigation Law. Under
that law the homestead entry upon
public land irrigated by the govern
ment ranges from 40 to 160 acres, to
be determined blythe Secretary of the
Interior, according to the conditions Of
the reclamation. It was recognized,
at the time of the passage of the law
in o02, that in some sections of the
country 40 acres was an ample area
for farm. 1t is now seen, and ad-
mitted in the bill above mentioned
that 10 acres is not too small a SUBJ
division under favorable conditions.
Another amendment was recently
made to the irrigation law allowing
the. government to establish town-sites
and divide the land Hereunder up
into various sized tracts ranging
from town-lots to 10 acre allotments.
When this bill which is now before the
Senate becomes law it will there
fore be possible for the government,
in any of it's irrigation projects to di-
vide and sub-divide it's land into
town and farm units ranging all the
way from lots up to 100 acre farms.
MODEL RURAL SETTLEMENTS.
This plan will doubtless develop
some of the finest examples of pros
porous rural communities to be found
anywhere in the world. Many OF the
best developed sections of some or
the western states include great
numbers of little farms and fruit
ranches of 5, 10 and 20 acres each,
where the appearance is almost like
the outskirts of village. With such
a dense rural population there is an
ideal combination of practically all
the advantages to be found in city
life and the splendid results of country
work and living. Houses, in such a
community, are almost within a stone
throw of each other, the population IS
sufficiently large to support splendid
roads, good school and churches, water
and lighting improvements. good
sewerage, etc. Thus the lonesome
ness. the isolation and the many I'M
attractive features of the big farm dis
appear while yet the joys and the
wholesomeness of country life are all
present.
The report accompanying this bill
states that since the passage of the
irrigation act, it has developed that
on some of the lands to be irrigated,
particularly those in fruit and truck
farming districts, less than 40 acres
J is needed for the support of the family
and in fact experience has demon,
strated that the average farmer is
more prosperous on small than on a
large irrigated farm. In view of this
condition of affairs it has been deemed
wise to reduce to 10 acres the mini
mum entry which may be allowed
Amador ledger., 1906-06-29

year. The factories last year had
total capacity for slicing 40,050 tons
of beets daily.
In the acreage planted and the
sugar manufactured from beets Colo
RADIO leads, h-.ving + vested $1,000
acres and manufactured $1,000 tons
of sugar. Michigan came second in
acreage with 1900 acres, but third
in sugar with $4,000 tons. California
grew $1,000 acres and produced 49,
600 tons Of sugar. The next states in
order were respectively Utah, Idaho,
Nebraska and Wisconsin with a total
of 1000 acres and $4,000 tons of
sugar. Other states grew 1900 acres
of beets, producing about 1900 tons
of sugar or a total for the United
States of 307,364 acres with a produc-
ton of $4,000 tons of sugar.
RAPID GROWTH LOOKED FOR.
Indications are favorable, the report
states, to the further growth of this
pursuit both in irrigation and rain
fall districts. "The industry is prov
ing to be a powerful aid to CONNER
cial, agricultural and industrial devel-
opment. It promotes irrigation, immi-
grafton, land settlement, the building
of railroads and trolley lines, the
making of other Improvements, and
the upbuilding of various industrial
enterprises. Such results can only be
appreciated by those who have visited
the factory districts in Colorado,
Utah and Idaho, or in other newly
settled and improved areas throughout
the West. The beneficial effect of the
t., ole e1,1 ~,
settled, more highly developed agri-
cultural districts of the East, where,
after beets have been given proper
trial in competition with established
crops, they are demonstrating their
staying qualities and potency in in
dustrial development"
GROWS MORE THAN IT EATS.
One feature of this report is a series
of tables accompanied with outline
maps designed to show graphically the
magnitude of sugar production in that
part of the country lying west of the
Mississippi River. These indicate that
the estimated production of sugar
west of the Mississippi in 1906 will ex-
ceed by 24,000 tons the amount of
sugar consumed in the same area in

estimate of production for 1906 is
made by assuming that all the beet
sugar factories, including 10 new
ones, will run at their full capacity for
campaigns of 100 days, and that the
cane sugar product for 1906 will be the
same as that of last year."

buttons, which were entered in a book
he had for that purpose. Among these
many names there appeared. Mrs.
Russell Sage, $685. The good man
went to Mr.. Sage's Office, and, showing
him the contribution entered in the
book by Mrs. Sage, asked if he could
not give like sum. And what do you
suppose he did?'
'Well, suppose he at least doubled
it," remarked listener.
Doubled it! Not Russellr' ex-
claimed the teller of the story. "Why,
he simply took his pen and wrote
Mr.. and before his wife's name, and
handed the book back to the good
man."-Harpers Weekly.

A LUXURIOUS AUTO.
Capt. Lars Anderson's Wonderful
Machine of French Manufacture.

OF all the automobiles ever turned
out by French or other manufacturers,
the one lately made for Capt. Lars
Anderson, of Boston, seems to be en-
titled to the prize for originality. It
is huge machine fitted up for long
journeys and in point of speed equals
any Of the present-day touring cars.
The Anderson car is fitted out with
reversible furniture. There is COM
bination bed and bureau that is GER
tainly work of art, and then there
is a cook stove and dining table ar
rangement that can be hauled out at
moments notice. The whole ma
chine, in fact, is kind of miniature
hotel on wheels with accommodation
for eating, sleeping, working or idling,
according to the fancy Of the owner
or his guests.

This showing of the Department of
Agriculture, while it makes a COM
paratively small inroad upon the vast
consumption of sugar in the more
densely populated region east of the
Mississippi, yet indicates that the
young beet-sugar industry is making
substantial progress, and that con-
sidering the uncertainty of legislation
and the great cost of beet-sugar fac
tory investments, very satisfactory ad-
vances are being made in this new
American enterprise.
