Mrs. W. J. Desart and Emmett

testee alleges that said land is not

swampy lake, not susceptible of
being cultivated for any character
of plants or vegetables or grain,
and the same cannot be walked on
or travelled over; that there are no
buildings thereon, and that the
same is uninhabitable by reason of
its character. They are notified
to appear before the register at
Spokane April 81 and % and offer
evidence touching said allegations.
A. S. Weeks is understood to be the
president of the Calispel Rod and
Gun Club.

 The mirror over the piano con- fused me. I had seen it somewhere before Then. there was that old copy of Botticelli. The frame was familiar. but l could not place it. This stein, however," He laughed; | the laughter was boyish, even tri- umphant
 Well. that stein?" She was now leaning across the table, her fingers tense on the cloth T bought that stein two seasons ago. This is the Sandford's place, and you are the yelled lady who has been riding Mrs. Sandford's favorite hunter in the park" And sop
 'I shall find out who you are pres ently"
 l How"
 That shall be my secret. Mutual l friends, indeed! You will not have to send me home blindfolded.' { That is precisely what I shall do, ; in a certain sense My name? Per haps. But you will never know my face"
 1 Suppose l should determine to cross the line, despite your precepts?" They stood up simultaneously. In ' a matter of this sort he was by far the quicker. In an instant he had caught her by the wrist, at the same time drawing her irresistibly round the table toward him. His grasp was not rough. only firm. She ceased to pull against him.
 'I must see your face. l shall never be at peace if I do not"
 Certainly you will never know any peace if you do. Be careful
 His free hand stole toward the strings of her mask. She moved not. His face was very close to hers now. If only she would struggle, Yes, he was certain now that her eyes were blue But they looked at him with a menace which chilled his ardor He dropped the hand from the mask and released her wrist.
 No. I haven't the courage. If I take that mask from your face. it will be the end And I do not want this ever to end. If you will not let me see your face of your own free will, so be it. I shall see it some day mark me. Fate does not cross two paths in this manner without a l purpose" He stepped back slowly. You do not understand the lure of that mask"
 Perhaps I do I am beginning to admire your self control, MT. Hillard; am beginning to admire it very much. But I am tired now. and must ask you to go."
 "Once more, will you let me see your face?"
 'No. If. as you say, fate intends for us to meet again. you will see it. But I have my doubts. So it is my will to pass out of your life as com pletely as though l had never en- tered it; from one fog into another. No, I am not a happy woman; I am not happy in my friendships. Listen |, to me- and her voice grew loud and sweet. Let me appeal to your imag- inatiOn. This light adventure shall be a souvenir for your old age.

take the pains to work out hoax Of this magnitude. It did not originate with him, and his wife is altogether out of the picture. If ' had only seen her face, I might have forgotten all about her in a few days. But the mask, the charm. the mystery, I can't get her out of my thoughts; am ir- rational in all I do; an absolute fail ure in the office"
 Tt is more than a hoax in my opin- ion. Wait till Sandford returns and finds his silver gone,"
 Hillard started.
 And his gold-plate,' continued Merrihew, pleased with the idea. My boy, that's what it is; the best dodge l ever heard of. But how did they get into the house, she and her maid !? It will make a good story for the Sunday papers. You won't be in it, unless she ropes you in as an accom- plice. That would be rich."
 I'm a romantic asst" Hillard sigh ed Leddy Lightfinger, If this turn ed out to be the case he would never trust a human being again; he would take to breeding dogs
 Let's take that ride on the horses % Merrihew urged. "That1I clear your brain of this sentimental fog"
 "NO." Hillard struck his hands to- gether I've a better idea than that. and it has just come to me. I shall go to Italy in March. and you, my boy. shall go with me-
 Impossible, Why, I'm all but broke" Merrihew shook his head de- cidedly.
 I'll take you as a companion. I'm sick man, Dan. I'm likely to jump overheard if some one isn't watching me every minute"
 I'd like to go, Jack; heaven and earth, but I should. But l can't pos sibly go to Italy with a letter of credit no more than twenty five hun dred and that's all there is in the exchequer at present"
 Between such friends as we are
 That racket won't work. I could not take a moments peace if I did not feel independent Supposing wanted to come home and you didn't, or you did and I didn't? No, Jack; nothing to it that way And Merri- hew was right.
 But I'm not going to give it to you." Hillard protested. He was de- termined to break down Merrihew's objections if it took all night. T am going to lend it to you And could I ever pay you back if I accepted the lOan?" humorously. You'll have to invent some other scheme"
 There's Monte Carlo; you might pull down a tidy sum said the tempt CT.
 That's the way, you beggar; hit me on the soft side" But Merrihew was still obdurate. To go to Europe was out of the question. Now listen to reason, Dan. If you wait for the opportunity to go to Flu ! rope, you'll wait in vain. You must make the opportunity. One must have youth to enjoy Italy thoroughly. The desire to go becomes less and less as one grows older. Besides, it com pletes every mans education; it ! broadens his charity and smooths down the rough edges of his conceit. [ I'll put the proposition in way you can't possibly get around. You've sim 1 ply got to go. You will always have that thousand, so don't worry about l that You have twenty-five hundred on hand. you say. With that you can see Italy like a prince for three months. I know the tongue and the | country; I know what you would want to see, what to avoid; where to stop"
Arizona republican., 1909-05-23

Come. that is not brave. You can retreat till your shoulders touch the mat. but l must stand this side of the line, unable to reach you. And you have the advantage of the mask besides. You are not a fair fencer." The odds should be in my favor. 1 am a woman. My wrist is not so strong as yours"
 physically, of course, I may pass the line; to reach the salt, for in stance. Will that be against the rules?"
 ITO certain extent, mo-"
 You make it very hard. You have put temptation in my path
 Bid Satan get behind thee
 But supposing he should take it into his head to-shoulder me for ward?'
 Tn that case, under the new rules, I should referee the matter"
 ''I wish I knew the color of your eyes. Behind those. hcIes I see noth- ing but point of fire, no color. Are they blue brown, grey?"
 They are blue. But supposing I wear this mask because my face is dreadfully scared, and that have some vanity"
 Vanity, yes; but scars, never; at least never so deep as you yourself can make You dc uoJ wear that mask to cover defects, but out of mercy to me-
 And so the duel went on. Some times the heat of the mask almost suffocated her, and she could hardly resist the desire to tear it from her face. Yet, in spite of this discomfort she was enjoying herself. This ad- venture was as novel to her as it was to him. once she rose and approach ed the window, slyly raising the mask and breathing deeply of the cold air which rushed in through the crevices When she turned s,le round that he too, had risen. He was looking al the steins, one of which he held in his hand. Moreover, he returned and set the stein down beside his plate.
 Tell me, why do you do that2' There was an anxious note in her voice
 'I have an idea. But let us pro- ceed dith the dinner. This salad T am more interested in the idea She pushed aside the salad and took sip of the ruby Burgundy. Had he discovered something2 -
 May I smoke2" he asked,
 By all means"
 He lighted a cigarette and put the case near the line.
 Do you not enjoy a cigarette?"
 Sometimes she answered. "But that idea"
 will you not have One?" He moved the case still nearer to the line.
 She reached out a firm round white arm.
 "One moment" he said; let u. understand each other thoroughly"
 What do you mean? her arm poised in mid-air.
 'TQ touch a cigarette you mus cross the line to this side"
 She withdrew her arm slowly.
 T shall not smoke. If I crossed the line I should establish a danger ous precedent. A good stroke. Now the idea I must have the idea"
