Renews Charges
Against Foraker
and Haskell
READS SOME MORE LETTERS
Scores Bryan for Attempt
to Shield Discredited
Treasurer.

Denver, Oct. LIN a speech, con-
suming less than thiry minutes, de-
livered here last night, William Ran
dolph Hearst, chairman of the Inde-
pendence party national committee,
renewed his charges against Senator
Joseph B. Foraker Of Ohio, and Gov
ernor Charles N. Haskell, of Oklahoma
and read additional letters and affi-
davits bearing upon the charges.
Two letters addressed to Senator
Foraker and signed by John D. Arch
bold, Of the Standard Oil company, In
which were enclosed certificates OF
deposits for $4,000 and $4,000, re-
spectively, each bearing date of 1900,
were read. In this connection Mr..
Hearst referred to the claim of Sena-
tor Foraker that he (Hearst) had not
made public any Of the letters which
would prove Forakers innocence and
declared he had no such letters in his
possession.
Presents Affidavits.
In support of his claim that Cover
nor Haskell was a member of the citi-
zens' alliance of Muskogee, Oklahoma,
) Mr.. Hearst read an affidavit dated on
September 81, 1908 and signed Nor
gan Carroway, of Muskogee, who de-
clared that he was secretary Of the al.
lance and had received money for
dues from Mr.. Haskell and had fre'
quently talked OF policies to be pur.
sued by the alliance with reference to
organized labor. A letter from John
Farrell. of Muskogee, was also read
which states that he was Sc
lected as sergeant-at-arms Of the al
lance through the influence of Mr.
Haskell.
Draws Contrast.
Mr.. Hearst paid his respects to Mr.
Roosevelt and Mr. Bryan and compar
ed the action Of the President In re
pudiating Senator Foraker with tha

ing to take the responsibility for Gov

playing upon. the paste formed of stone
dust and condensed steam. The clicking
whir, like the clap of wings, heard at
intervals, accounted for the scars. Bombs
of rock were being hurled from the great
tubes.
That he was in the range of a raking
volcano fire did not impress this ant
clinging to the beard of a giant. Up,
knees and hands, he crawled-up over the
throbbing chin, to the black pounded lip
of the monster. Out of the old lake coiled
the furious tower of steam and rock-dust
which mushroomed in high air, like the
primal nebula from which the worlds
were made. Pockets of gas exploded in
the heights, rending the periphery as the
veil of the temple was rent. Only this
to see, but sounds not meant for enc ears
of man, sounds which seemed to saw his
skull in twain-the laundering engines
of the planet
The rocky rim of the lake was hot to
his hands and knees, but he could not go
back. A thought in his brain held him
there with thrilling bands-the same
thought which Hayden Breen evolved as
he stood at the edge of the Brooklyn
pier. But it was only a play
thing of mind-the vagary of altitude and
immensely. did ever a man clog live
volcano? Did ever suicidal genius con-
ceive of corrupting such majesty of force
with his pygmy purpose" The
irrevere''t query righted the balances.
There he lay, sprawled at the edge of
the universal mystery, at the secret en-
fro 10 ho chr r&bsc
mos. The edge of the pit shook with the
frightful work going on below, yet he was
not slain. The torrent burst past and
upward, clean as a missing bullet. The
bombs of rock canted out from sheer
weight and fell behind him. That which
he compreehnded-al although his eyes saw
only the gray laundering cataclysm-was
never before imagined in the mind of
man.
The gray blackened. The roar dwin-
died, and his senses reeled. With a rush
of saliva the linen dropped from his open
mouth. Constable was sure that there
was a gaping cleft in his skull, for he
could feel the air blowing in and out, cold
and colder. He tried to lift has hands
to cover the sensitive wound, but they
CROPPED in vain for his head. With the
icy draughts Of air, he seemed to hear,
family, his name falling upon the barred
ganglion.
Peter! Peer Constable ~
He strained his face toward the sound.
The lower part of his body would not
move. He was uncoupled, like beast
whose spine is broken.
peter! Oh, Peter Constable!" he
heard again.

Strange Religious Rites Observed
Among the Ancient Senecas.
Up in the northeast corner of Okla
homa there is a small band Of Seneca
Indians on a reservation Of the same
name, says the Kansas City Star. This
is a remnant Of a nation of Indians
that can be traced from the original
New England States, as they were fore
ed west and south by the encroachment
Of the whites and the battle arm Of
stronger Indian bands that were con-
stantly warning against them.
Among this little band of Indians,
probably not more than 100 all told,
there are some curious heather rites
that seem to be instructive with the
tribe.
Among them there is an old order
known as 1.-THE Wood Face" Those who
belong to the order can call in the
wood Faces" in case Of sickness, as is
often done. They go through a per-
Torrance that is calculated to drive out
from the sick person the evil spirit that
may be lowering around the bed. These
faces are masks made out Of wood, usu-
ally carved to represent human form
of some character, but sometimes made
to represent the head Of an animal.
They are painted red and black, with
large silver eyes and horse tail for
hair.
Arrayed in one Of these hideous
masks, together with rattles made of
turtle shells fastened together at the
upper edges with small stones inside
and tied to the legs Of the "Wood
Faces" as they dance, roll and kick,
singing their incantations the while
the Indians present a scene calculated
to drive away any evil spirit that might
happen along and incidentally drive the
life out of the patient. While all this
is going on it is also customary to pour
ashes on the head of the patient.
It appears that this organization mas
been in the tribe for many generations,
the modes Of procedure differing some
times, but following the same general
character. It's secret signs and SYM
bols are guarded as closely as Masonry
and it's fraternal features are as bind
ing. It's spiritual benefits are believed
in as implicitly as does any white man
believe in his religion.

The torturing hours crawled by. The
rro1. afternoon turned to dusk, and the
Jrsk 10 night. The north was Redeemed
he peIee's firelit cone, which the thick
ranor dimmed and blurred. The rumblings
were constant. Lara was suffering to
fgbt out her battle alone. She asked no
more than this. A thousand times she
narpd across her room scores of visits she
made to Constable's window, straining
her eyes northward, along the road
through the day and darkness, to the end
of all things-the mountain Uncle
Joev came to plead with her, but she
begged him to go away. Her brain was a
liyid track of flying, futile agonies. In
the evening the intermittent rumblings
gave way to growing, constant and in
cessant. 1t was as if a steady stream of
heavy vehicles was pounding over wood
en bridge. There was a pang in each
Dhase of the monster since the man had
gone I'D into that red roar. It was near
" midnight when the girl in the upper
room heard a step upon the veranda.

ar's door, make haste; there is some

The moments of waiting assailed the
very roots of her reason. The voice that
she heard at last was Breen's.
81 beg that you'll forgive me, Mr.. Wall,
for arousing you at this hour, but it is
necessary for me to have a few words
with Miss Stansbury."
Sir" the planter replied, anything
which concerns yourself is of no moment
to Miss Stansbury. If your message is
from Mr.. Constable, you may tell him
to come himself or send a native"

WALL" Breen replied, without irritation,
'but | cannot count my errand accom-

Stansbury. If she should refuse to see
me-"
y am coming down, Mr.. Breen," Lara
called over the baluster. ''Uncle joey,
show Mr.. Breen to a seat. I'll be there
in a moment"
She turned to re-enter her room for
garment. Her mothers figure barred the
open doorway.

to engulf the struggling ship at any

ship.

CHAPTER x.

Constable had been physically unhurt
In his thirty years, and the exertions of
the past four days had worn little more
than the polish from his vitality. In
stead of relaxing in the crisis of the news
paper revelation, his body righted under
the whip of pride, and he strobe down
into the city as one who has slipped
burden. He had been beaten in a battle
with a woman. Butcher had come to
Mrs Stansbury's aid at the last moment,
in the shape of newspapers from the
north. From Lara however, and not the
mother, had come the most crippling blow
of all. 1t was Lara who had handed him
the newspaper She did not wait, nor
ask. Around this item, Constable built
a gloOm-structure of baronial proportions.
His attitude toward Breen was very
simple. He would not betray his guest
for all the newspapers and police in
Christendom. Having waived Breen's
offer to detail the particulars of his past,
during the first night of acquaintance,
Constable certainly could not reproach
the other for misrepresenting himself.
1t was ten-thirty in the morning when
"
countermanding sailing orders, and enclos-
Ing cheerful note to Crusoe, containing
draft for the stipulated amount. At the
bank be also left a second sum for Faith
er Damien, and procured considerable cur
rent paper for his own uses His mind
moved in a light, irresponsible fashion.
1t was as if he were obsessed at quick
intervals, one after another, by mad kings
who dared anything, and whom no one
dared refuse. His brain kept the great
sorrow in the background, and occupied
itself with striking articles. While aware
that in losing Miss Stansbury and the
privilege of protecting her, the meaning
and direction of his life was gone, still
constable did not yet sense the fullness
OF the visitation. His was not a wound
to heal by first intention; and in bad
hurts pain assumes command leisurely
and in order.
de plunged into a crowd in the market
place, and began to talk to the natives
Whimsically, but to the purpose of start

that Father Damien would care for them

Is the last day of Saint Pierre" he ex-
claimed in French, ''but l declare to you
mat If ever planet looked as if she were
About to spring a leak, Mother Earth has
The symptoms localized in Pelee!'
Constables eyes had fixed upon a car
rage passing along the edge of the
crowd. Now he moved toward it quick
y and seized the bride. Despite the pro-
teStauons of the driver, he led the vehicle
mo the good view of all. His face was
Feo with the heat and ashine with laugh
Ter and perspiration. Alarm and merri-
Nent mingled in the native throng. All
eyes followed the towering figure of the
american, now bowed before the swinging
uOor of the carriage-and NJ Mondet.

e. as one would produce rabbit from

uo' bright and clean and pretty? He is
very fond of American humor. See how
