CHAPTER XVIII.

Valentine, Dona Anita, NJ. Rallier and
Don Martial got into the carriage. The
two Canadians and the chief followed
them on horseback, and they proceeded
at gallop to the chapel where the con-
demned man was confined
All along the road they found marks
of the obstinate struggle which had del
uged the city with blood few days pre-
viously; the barricades had not been en-
tirely removed, and though the distance
was in reality very short, they did not
reach the prison until nightfall, owing
to the detours they were forced to make
Valentine begged his friends to remain
outside, and only entered with Dona
Anita and the Tigrero. The general was
impatiently expecting them, and testified
a great joy on .perceiving them.
The young lady could not restrain her
emotion, and threw herself into her un-
cles arms with an outburst of pasZ,on-
ate grief. The general pressed her ten
derly to his bosom and kissed her on the
forehead.
Il am the more affected by these marks
of affection, my child" he said, with
much emotion, because 1 have been very
harsh to you. Can you ever forgive me
the sufferings have caused you?"
"Oh, uncle, speak not so. Are you
not, alas the only relation 1 have re-
maining?"
For a short time" he said, with a
sad SMILE that is the reason why |
ought, without further delay, to provide
for your future"
do not talk about that at such a mo-
ment, uncle" she continued, bursting into
tears.
"On the contrary, my child, It Ia at
this moment, when l am going to leave
you, that | am bound to insure YOU
protector. Don Martial, have done YOU
great wrong; here is my hand, accept it
as that of man who has completely
recognized his faults, and sincerely re-
pents the evil he has done"
The Tigrero, more affected than he
liked to display, took step forward and
cordially pressed the hand offered him.
General" he said, in a voice which
he tried In vain to render firm, "this mo-
ment, which l never dared hope to see.
fills me with joy, but at the same time
with grief"
well, you can do something for me
by proving to me that you have really
forgiven me-"
Speak, general and no matter, IL II
is in my oower-" he exclaimed. warm
ly
II believe you, Don Martial" Don
Sebastian answered, with his sad smile.
Consent to accept my niece from nv
hand and marry her at once in this
chapel"
One Of the monks had prepared every
thing beforehand.
When the hunters and the French
banker entered, followed by Curumilla
and the officer commanding the capilla
guard, who had been warned beforehand.
the general walked eagerly toward them.
"Senores," he said, II would ask you
to do me the honor of witnessing the
of my niece, Dona Anita de
Torres, with this cabellero. One mo-
ment l have something more yet, II

noble-hearted man, and l am convinced
that he will not refuse to come. / should
be glad if he consented to bring with him
Don Martial, the Tigrero, who has so
much cause to complain of me, as well
as my niece, Dona Anita de Torres. Will
you undertake this commission, the last
| shall doubtless give you?"
"Yes, general" the capataz answered,
affected in spite of himself by such gen.
tleness.
Now go; be happy and pray for me,
for we shall never meet again"
The capataz went out in a very differ
ent frame of mind from that in which
he had entered the capilla, and hastened
off to Valentine.
IL will CO." said Valentine simply.
and he dismissed him.
Curumilla was at once sent of to NJ.
Rallier's quinta with a letter, and during
his absence Valentine had a long conver-
sation with Belhumeur and Black Elk.
At about in the evening carriage en-
tered the courtyard of Valentines house
at gallop; 1t contained NJ. Rallier,
Dona Anita and Don Martial.
Thanks !" he said on seeing them.
"You ordered me to come, so l obeyed
as usual" the Tigrero answered.
You were right, my friend"
"And now what do you want Of us?"
That you should accompany me to
the place whittier am going at this mo-
ment."
Would 1t be indiscreet to ask you"
"Where?" the hunter interrupted him
with a laugh. mot at all am going
to lead you, Dona Anita, and the persons
here present to the capataz in which
General Guerrero is confined"
'The capillaf" the Tigrero exclaimed
in amazement, "for what purpose"
What does that concern you? The
general has requested to see you, and
you cannot refuse the request of a man
who has but few hours left to live"
The Tigrero hung his head without an
swering.
"Oh 1 will go !" Dona Anita exclaimed
infpulsively,. as she wiped away the tears
that ran down her cheeks.
Since you insist, Don Valentine, l
will CO." said the Tigrero.
II do not insist, my friend; / only
ask, that is ALL"

HOLD COTTON AT
SIXTEEN CENTS
OKLAHOMA GROWERS WILL NOT

THEY DECLARE

GUTHRIE, Okla, Nov. 4.-Cottor
growers IL all parts OF Oklahoma and
Indian Territory today held secret
meeting and discussed the cotton mar,
-ket situation. It was decided to hold
the 1907 pick until cotton prices have
advanced to certain point. The cot.
ton growers have compact organiza-
ton and each member is sworn to
secrecy. 1t is rumored the minimum
price at which farmers will sell was
fixed at sixteen cents.
The action Of cotton growers to hold
the crop is considered In q favorable
light by financial concerns as indicat-
ing that the furry has not frightened
planters and that they are not in need
of ready money. The fact that the
banks win not be called on to supply
cotton funds will aid in restoring nor
NAL conditions. It is estimated that
over 10000 bales OF cotton will be
held out of the market In Logan coun-
~ alone.

; WASHINGTON, Nov. Important
developments bearing upon the repub-
lican presidential situation are expec-
ted following the return of Secretary
Taft to Washington on Dec. IL. 1t is
believed he win either make an entire
change in the management of his cam
paign or retire from the contest.
The belief is growing among politi.
clans that President Roosevelt is not
so strongly in favor OF Taft for the
nomination as he once was 1t is said
that the President is disappointed in
the strength Mr.. Taft's candidacy has
developed among the people and that
he is now not so sure that the Ohioan
would be the best man to head the
ticket.
The friends Of Mr.. Taft seem to
admit that he made mis-
take In not resigning from the cabinet
several months ago and thus relieve
himself OF the charge that he is mere
ly 'Roosevelt's man." They fear this
claim, however baseless it may be, is
slowly dragging him out OF the presi-
iential race.

news OF the occurrence was conveyed

from superintendent Shelton. Of the
San Juan Agency. which. though dated
yesterday, was net received untn To-
aay.
The army command consisted Of
four eficers, seyenty-four men and
three Indian scouts. The telegram to
the Indian Bureau, which was dated
at Ship Rock, N. NJ, follows:
The troops have returned from
Southern Utah. They arrested BY
Lille and nine other Indians. Three
Others were killed and one wounded
while shooting at the Indians. The
Indians are quiet. and l do not antici-
pate further trouble unless It be from

This is the first information re-
eeived here regarding the encounter.

sumo that the killed and wounded
were Indians.
The Indians taken into custody are

under the leadership OF BY Lille have
been creating disturbances because Of
this disinclination TO observe the reg
ulations OF the Indian once, and theiI
efforts to prevent others Of the tribe
from doing so. So pronounced have
been their objections become and so
offensive their action that Superin-
tendent Shelton made q request that
a body Of soldiers be sent to the reser-

mand OF Capt. H. o. Willard, were

1t was unknown at the time that their
presence should not mean any more
than a demonstration to the Indians.
Mr.. Shelton's idea being that the mere
sight Of the soldiers would have a
quieting effect upon the turbulent
members Of the tribe. y
The War Department today received
a telegram from Capt. Carter P. John

Indian camp. in South Dakota, to con-
ciliate that tribe, who threatened out

PHYSICIAN SHOT
FROM AMBUSH
DR.. p. McF. ALLEN OF NASHVILLE,
is AssAssINATED BY THoM-
AS BUSH.
Without Word OF Warning And
Without Known Cause Deed
Is Done.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. AUST
after getting oul of his automobile in
front of his office, on Charlotte avenue,
in West Nashville, on Sunday after.
non shortly after o'clock, DR.. p.
McF. Allen, a well known physician,
was shot and almost instantly killed
by Thomas S. Bush, 81 years old. The
motive for the tragedy is not known,
and up to few hours before the trag-
edy the men were believed TO be on
the friendliest of terms. DR.. Allen
was physician for Bush and his wife,
and 1t is understood that a CONVERSE
ton between Bush and his wife in re-
gard to call of DIR. Allen, on Satur-
day night, was the cause of the deed.
Bush refused to make any statement
in regard to the case. 1t was also
rumored that financial matters might
have played part in the tragedy,
though nothing could be learned
definitely.
The tragedy caused great excite
ment in West Nashville, which is us
ually quiet suburb and has not had
such an occurrence for long time
A large crowd of citizens assembled
at the scene, and there was much
speculation as to the motive of the
slayer. DR.. Allen stepped back on
the sidewalk after being shot, and
eased himself down against the fence.
and was dead before anyone reached
him. So far as could be learned, he
did not speak after being shot, and
whether or not he knew who shot him
could not be stated, as he was leaning
over looking at some OF the gearing
If his motor at the time.
