The men sat farther back in their

Anita rose obediently. Mrs. Chau-
dron led her 10 the door, and watched
the girl as she went sobbing through
the hall.
Cigar smoke curled upward from the
men about the dinfng-table. Duke
did not move; he scarcely thought or
felt. Every plan and purpose OF his
life had gone astray. Everything was
in chaos. and he must compose his
mind 20 new conditions.
The thin blue haze from their Ha-
vanas hung like a veil Of illusion be-
tween himself and those other men
those other men who seemed so distant
and so vague.
He sat staring at Joe. staring until
Joe's good-natured face lost shape and
outline. II faded away. II merged and
melted into the mystery of undistin-
guishable things. Some one told a
story; three men laughed. Duke
moved quickly round the t.ble
Joe he whispered, lis that the
TRUTH"
Yes" Joe nodded.
Dukes eyes flashed straight to the
place where Anita had disappeared.
He rose. walked like phantom
through a mist and parted the draw
ing-room portieres.
Mrs. Chaudron looked up; she saw
his tall. slender figure standing there
between the pOrtieres-saw him
searching the room with disappointed
eyes
The dashing song of the Toreador
rang In his ears. but he did not hear
Il. Miss Derosset smiled. and made
place for him beside her-he did

Duke the room was empty. silent. des-

there.
Mrs Chaudron walked across the
floor and touched his arm before he
saw her Back there" she whis-
pered. and pointed down the hall
1t was tiny little room, the room
next the conservatory; but IL held
Anita. and the whole unmeasured uni
verse need be no wider.
The door stood ajar; Duke tapped
gently, and gained no answer but

Here were the pitiful belongings
which she had meant to take with her
into the unknown world. They
seemed so very sacred as she tucked
them away. and her tears had fallen
upon every one. Those were the tri-
fies she had chosen 70 be sanctiheI
by her love. 20 share the glory or her
newer life. Now there would be no
sacrifice. there was nothing that she
need give up-her love would cost her
nothing.
Duke called 10 her, his voice in
hnitely low. inconceiably tender.
She did not look up; she only cow
cred closer 90 the floor and sobbed.
"Auita," he whispered again. then
came In. shut the door and knelt be-
side her.

A New BunCo Game.

Last evening we'll dressed man stepped into Martins drug store. Ac- costing the head clerk he said he wish ed to leave twenty dollar bill in exchange for silver, as he was desirin g of mailing paper money at once. The clerk was accommodating and turning to the cash register he took there from a crisp bill of the denomination asked for. at the same time passing an en- velope to the stranger in response to Q request.
 The man then placed the money in the envelope, to which he attached a special delivery ten cent stamp. Then he got busy with bunch of silver, counting it out while the clerk was engaged with a customer. When the clerk returned the man remarked that the person who had paid him the money had 'short changed" him.
 "I will leave this letter with you, :" the man said, "until I go and have the error corrected" Then he went out and forgot to return.
 As the minutes grew apace, far be- yond reasonable time. the clerks sus- picions were aroused. and calling, MT. Martins attention to the incident, to- gether they opened the stamped en- velope. To the surprise of both they found only two pieces of blank paper ia the envelope. The stranger had changed envelopes, and when he went out he was $2O ahead, less a ten cent stamp.-Arizona Star.

Wonderful Progress Made by Texas.

Governor Campbell has compiled statIstIcs showing the growth of Texas in various lines during the last twenty. two years He says: "In 1885 the population of Texas was about 2 000,- 900; now it is more than 100000. Then we had 43, ,894 ,576 acres in farms, now 125, ,S07.0l7 acres; the cotton crop was 1.369,2O8 bales. last year 4,066, 472 bales; the corn crop was 100000 bushels, now I55, SOC, 900 bushels. Wheat. oats. sugar and other farm products have increased in like proportion. In the production of rice, Texas leads all other states, and rice culture was unknown in Texas in 1885. Then Texas had 40oO factorie S all told; now more than 5000 From 6,687 miles of railroad the mileage has increased to 12, 575 miles, main track, and more than 15, 900 miles. including yards and sidings.

Difficult Capture by Arizona Ranger

Last night at midnight. Constable Page, of Patagonia, and Ranger Kid der, overlook four fugitlves loaded with plunder consisting of watches, fire arms. jewelry, etc. just as they were boarding freight train at the union depot in Benson.
 A desperate fight ensued and at one time it looked dubious for Constable Page, who had the muzzle of gun thrust against his stomach
 Officer Banta of Benson who hap pened on the scene said Ranger Kid der showed the coolest judgement and best nerve combined of any officer he ever saw. After the officers got the best of the man who had the drop on Page he still fought furiously and Banta says any other officer but Kid der would have shot him but the Ranger over powered him without in turing him more than was absolutely necessary. Two were captured and two escaped. The prisoners both plead guilty before Judge OheseIdine today and were given ten days and 90 days respectively, being taken to Tomb stone this afternoon.-The Benson Press.

The bravery and coolness of Ranger Jeff Kidder and Constable A. D. Page, of Patagonia, is most commendable. Both are very efficient officers, credit to the Arizona Rangers and Santa Cruz county. Jeff Kidder is one of the best. members of the Ranger force; his record is first class and we hope at no distant date to learn of bis pro- motion.

KINGS DAUGHTERS
DOING GREAT WORK;
NEEDING ASSISTANCE

have expended, thus far, the sum Of
$350.0O and they find themselves bur-
dened with the care Of four families
and depleted treasury.
One of these families consists OF
seven persons, another of five, one OF
four and still another of three per-
sons and the care of all these people
is burden that weighs heavily upon
them.
In nearly every other city-in quite
every other city-some provision is
made by the city government for help
ing the worthy poor and needy but in
Hattiesburg there is no provision for
aiding the sick and needy but deserv-
ing poor.
The Kings Daughters wish to draw
attention to this fact so that the mat
ter may be taken up by the proper
parties to the end that the City Coun
Gil will be constrained to make some
sort of appropriation to this cause
They do not wish. to handle the money
for that matter. and only wish it ar
ranged so that they can direct som'
of it to those cases they know to b
deserving of the City's charity.
This is the case as 1t stands ant
they await some sort Of action.

The story of little Ella Patton, the
girl now in the hands of the Salvation
Army corps here, has been verified by
her own brothers and her little sister
and the people around Eastabuchie
are very much incensed and intend to
see that the Jones county authorities
do something in the matter without
further delay.
CAPTAIN McAfee, of the Salvation
Army, with his assistant, Mr.. Winches-
ter. went to Eastabuchie Friday ac-
companied by Judge Huddleston, the
attorney for the Army in this matter
and returned last night after success
fully corroborating the child's story.
Captain McAfee reports that posse
was out Thursday night looking for
Pink Patton but that it was impossi-
BILE to locate him.
The Salvation Aramy officials ac
companied by Judge Huddleston went
to the home of the Pattons and
thoroughly satisfied themselves that
the story as told by Ella Patton wher
she fed to Hattiesburg for protection
is true in every important detail and
that her younger sister was also th'
victim of the unnatural father. TIT
two brothers and little sister sub
stantiate her statements although tn

\ case as it should be pushed and Cap
