PROGRESS OF TEMPER
ANCE IN THE SOUTH,

ANCE IN THE SOUTH.
From Bryan's Commoner.
Temperance mas recently made
great advance, particularly in the
southern states, and the New Orleans
Times-Democrat says that the indica-
tons are that the present movement
will bring about prohibition in many
states. the paper adds: Temperance
has for the past twenty years been
making inroads into the South, main
" through the provision of local OPP
ton. which the southern people have
so far found the most satisfactory
way of solving the liquor problem.
The spread-of temperance is due, in
large part, to the activity of the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union
and kindred organizations and to the
folly and lawless methods of the sa-
loon people. who in many sections,
blind to the condition of affairs pre-
vailing, have4by their arbitrary meth
DDS, their interference in politics and
their control OF legislation done all
in their power to stir up public opin-
ion against them. In Texas they
proved themselves so lawless as to

and brewers to protest that II the sa

His keenly observant eyes, traineA

eager by this newly awakened Ambi-
ton, scanned the clin towering above

regularity of its front, and numerous
peculiarities of formation which had
escaped him hitherto. Suddenly hia

an idea. By h~eavensi It might be

CHAPTER n.
OLD HiiIie, GirI

Guided by the unerring instinct of
an old Indian fighter, ellis, during
that first mad retreat, had discovered
temporary shelter behind one of the
largest bowldefs. 1t was a trihe in
advance of those later rolled into posi-
ton by the soldiers, but was of a size
and shape which should have afforded
ample protection for two, and doubt
les would have done so had it not
been for the firing from the cliff OPP
posite. Even then it was a detected
bullet, CHANGING from off the polished
surface of the rock, which found lodg-
men in the sturdy OLD fighters brain.
The girl had caught him as he fell, had
wasted all her treasured store of wa
ter in a vain effort to cleanse the blood
from his features, and now sat there,
pillowing his cad upon her knee, al
though the old man was stone dead
with the first touch of the ball. That
had occurred fully an hour before, but
h continued in the same posture, a
grave, pathetic figure, her ace sobered
and beyond her years, her
eye dry and staring, one brown hand
grasping unconsciously the old mans
useless rife. She would scarcely have
been esteemed attractive even under
much happier circumstances and as
sisted by dress. yet there was some
thing in the Independent poise of her
head, the steady fixedness of her pos
ture, which served to interest Hamp-
ton as he now watched her c~uriously.
Fighting blood" he muttered ad-
miringly to himself. Might fail to
develop into very much of a society
bell, but likely to prove valuable out
here"
She was rather a slender slip of a
thing, a trihe too tall for her years,
perhaps, yet with no lack of develop
ment apparent. in the slim, rounded
figure. Her coarse homemade dress
of dark calico fitted her sadly, while
her rumpled hair, from which the
PREDETERMINED hat had fallen, pos
sessed a reddish copper tinge where
1t was touched by the sun. Mr.. Hamp-
tons survey did not increase his de-
