Illinois gave way 10 West Vir'
glnla last year in the matter OF Goa
production. According 10 statistics
compiled by the geological survey
West Virginia supplanted the Sucker
state and took position as the sec
ond coal producing state OF the Un-
ion. During 1906 II had a total out
put OF 45.276.4s5 short tons. while
the production OF Illinois was Al
47O,435 short tons. The loss OF
place by Illinois was due TO the al
most complete suspension OF mining
operations in that state in April and
a portion OF May because OF labor
troubles. According to the figures
the total production OF coal In the
United States last year was 4i4'-
O39,5si short tons OF 1900 pounds
valued at s5l2.61O,744 Compared
with 1905 these hgures show an IN
crease OF Ga per cent In quantity and

PRINCESS MARTHA
BY PERCY BREBNER.
Copyright. 1905. T. J. Mcbride L Son.

One woman Of the world, for she
seemed. the center Of attraction, beautiful,
witty. frivolous, shimmering in silk and
lace and Jewels. jewels that were no bright
er than her eyes. He had not mentioned
her among those who had fooled him. She
had not done so. She had been pleasant
companion, true comrade, perhaps; in
deed was ready to give him even more
than friendship. He might have loved her
but for the other woman. whom he saw
again in vision, standing on the sum-
nit of the downs. talking of empire and
power, stirring his soul from it's lethargy
and bidding him play the man. If she had
stirred him then, how much more did she
make his pulses throb now. now that she
had shared his dangers and braved so muchl
Had she any memory such as his, of that
breezy morning long ago? And then the
horror of the present overwhelmed him for
time. He was powerless to help her.
There Is no future for us beyond tomor-
row. or the day after" he murmured. Fate
has strangely linked me with these two
women, and made sport of me. One might
have loved me, perchance and Will regret
me; the other love, and she cares not: and
l am likely to lay down my life in last
endeavor to save her. Thank God for such

Princess Martha stood for some time
where Ellerey had left her. She, too, per-

and her thoughts sped to Frina Mavrodin.
Then she crossed the chamber quickly.
'Dumitru, you asleep?"

he comes, be asleep. l shall feign to be;
but listen, and if you do not understand,

For long time she continued to speak in
a whisper.

Madness she answered. Listen, Dumitru,

When she had finished there was silence.
You would have me play the traitor"

He is never traitor who obeys the

But, princess"
