But few minutes after, Barnes sud
denly remarks that he wants some
more cartridges for his pistols, and
obtaining the cutter, is rapidly rowed
to the landing aud disappears in the
sixteenth century architecture of the
town.
Consequently, when Marina and Enid
come ON deck, the latter discovers her
swain Is absent and, being now in
clined to find fault with her gallant,
pouts mentally: Burton might have
asked IL I'd like a run on shore also"
But both boats being now at the
landing, the ladies are compelled To
spend their time rather mouotonOusly
looking at the picturesque little port,
though Marina does little of this. The
very sight of France seems in some
occult manner to alright the beauti-
full woman as she leans upon her hus-
bands arm. To him she whispers,
neryously: VIII we get to Nice to-
day."

one, you seem afraid of that place"

she answers. amblguously; and clings
more tightly to his arm.
During this, Miss Anstruther, rather

roadstead, some of these seagoing

graceful lateen rig attracts the Eng
lish girls attention. Having little
else to do, the young lady several
times puts her binocular upon the
lateen.rigged fishing boat, and In the
becomes quite familiar with its grace

About this time Barnes returns in
the cutter and Is not oyergraciously
welcomed by his fiancee, who, though
generally level.headed, has now nursed
the slight that she conceives her love
and trust had received yesterday, into
a fervid jealousy under which each un.
intentional omission of service in her
betrothed is an additional offense.
Together they pass a tiresome hour

WORLDS GREAT SHOW.

Broke All Recor6s.

This Years Magnificent international
Broke All Records.
"The international this year, the
eighth. proved the worlds greatest live
stock show, both in number and quality
of entries, in interest shown in the ex-
hibits and il attendance Separately
there may have been greater ana more
complete horse shows and possibly as
grand a showing of cattle in strictly
cattle show, but as an all around ex-
hibit of pure bred farm animals there
was, never before anything approach
ing it."
To the foregoing opinion of Orange
Judd Farmer there are not likely to be
many exceptions taken. Some, details
of the great event here follow:
When tie gates opened it is conserva-
lively estimated that there was $7000.-
coo worth of pure bred animals. This
value was made up from nearly 1900
cattle. representing every standard
breed; nearly 100, hcrses, nearly 1900
sheep, the largest and most high class
showing ever brought together i'll this
country and perhaps never equaled
anywhere, covering all recognized
breeds and made up of individual ami
mails that have been prize winners re-
peatedly in other contests. Of swine,
limited as they were this year to fat
animals only, there were nearly 400
entries.
In point Of interest and of attendance
old records were eclipsed. Over 10000
people a day passed through the turn
stiles, and it is conservatively estimat-
ed that 100000 people from outside of
Chicago visited the city during the
week for the purpose of looking over
the magnificent showing gathered
from all states and from many coun-
tries of the world The educational
feature of the international was again
prominent as it should be. the agri-

CUT IN WAGES DEFERRED.
Southern R@;!rcsd May Not Find 1t
Necessary to Reduce Wages

Southern R=:!rcsd May Not Find 1t
Necessary to Reduce Wages
Washington, June 25.-It is under
stood here that the Southern Railway
company will not reduce the wages
of its employees in the operating de-
partment, as has been contemplated.
Last March the company announced
its intention of reducing wages at that
time and numerous conferences were
held between the officials and repre-
sentatives of the employees, the result
of which was to defer action until July
first Commissioner of Labor Neill
and Chairman Knapp, of the inter
state commerce commission, acted as
Intermediates at these conferences.
1t was agreed at that time that if bus
iness conditions along the line Of the
railroad had not improved at the end
of three months, new wage scale
would be taken UP for consideration.
Several conferences between the same
parties have been held within the past
few days and as a result the proba-
tionary period has been extended to
three months. 1t is said that bust
ness in the south is reviving, ana that
at the end of the three months the
Southern will not find it necessary to
make any wage reductions.

upon the federal custom house: Forty
troopers were finally assembled. In

about noon, the attacking party was
repulsed and communication was es--
tRblished out of Las Vacos.
