CHAPTER II.
PoLEoN DoRET's HAND is QUICKER THAN
HIS TONGUE.

PoLEoN DoRET's HAND is QUICKER THAN
HIS TONGUE.
"HE traders house sat back of
the post, farther up on the
hill. 1t was a large, sleepy
house, sprawling against the
sunny side Of the slope 1t was of
great, square hewn timbers, built in
the Russian style. the underside Of
each log followed to fit snugly over
its fellow underneath, upon which
dried moss had previously been spread.
Many architects had worked on it as
it grew room by room through the
years. 1t had stretched bit year by
year, for the traders family had been
big In the early days when hunters
trade, to loaf and to swap stories with
him. Through the winter days. when
the caribou were in the north and the
moose were scarce, whole families Of
natives came and camped there, for
Alluna, his squaw, drew to her own
blood, and they felt it their due to eat
of the bounty of him who ruled them
like an overload.
There are men whose wits are quick
as light and whose muscles have been
so tempered and hardened by years Of
exercise that they are like those of
wild animal. OF such was John Gale,
but with all his intelligence he was
very slew at reading; hence he chose
to spend his evenings with his pipe
and his thoughts rather than with
book, as lonesome men are supposed
to do. He did with little sleep, and
many nights he sat alone till Alluna
and Necia would be awakened by his
heavy step as he went to his bed.
That he was a man who could really
think and that his thoughts were en-
crossing no one doubted who saw him
sitting enthralled at such a time, for
he neither rocked nor talked nor moved
a muscle hour after hour, and only his
eyes were alive. Tonight the spell
was on him again.
Gales squaw came in, her arrival
unannounced except by the scuff Of
he rloccasins, and seated herself
against the wall. She did not use
chair, of which there were several, but
crouched upon bearskin, her knees
beneath her chin. She sat thus for a
long time, while Necia put the little
ones to bed. Soon the girl came to
say good night.
When she had gone he spoke with
out moving:
"She'll never marry Poleon Doret."
"Why?" inquired Alluna.
"He amt her kind"
"Poleon is good man."
"None better. But she'll marry some
some white man."
"Poleon is white" the squaw de-
clared
HE is and he amt. I mean she'll
marry an outside man. He amt good
enough. and-well, he amt her kind"
Alluna's grunt of indignation was a
sufficient answer to this, but he re-
sumed. jerking his head in the direc-
ton of the barracks. "She'S been talk
ing a lot with this-this soldier"
Him good man, too, / guess" said
the wife.
1.-THE HI he is!' cried the trader
fiercely HE. don't mean any good
to her."

respondents reported the sale of the R. O. Greene ranch for $40,00G and when the item was written it was understood the deal had been closed. Since then, however, a hitch has arisen between the parties and the deal is still pending. while MT. Green is getting less and less anxious to sell all the time. He has already made a competence from the ranch during his years of residence in the valley and has moved to town to live, being induced to sell only be- cause he did not care to longer con- duct the farm personally. It is one -of the finest farms in the valley and the price offered is hardly an in ducement; would be no inducement at all, in fact, if MT. Green still wanted to live in the country. He feels that if the sale is not made now it will bring him more money later, so he is not worrying over the result. . BACK FROM GLOBE TRIP-El-

At Fish Creek, on the way home, they met George Alllire going toward Roose- welt with a broken spring and a puncture, but good natured as ever, or at least as good natured as one could be under such circumstances. Mir. Evans says some people make lot of fun of his car, but it cover ed the trip both ways without the slightest accident, and made good time. He gives a great deal of credit as also did his guests, to the care fitness of the chauffeur, who they assert is master of his business. Speaking of the trip all the gentle men were delighted with the ride, the road and the scenery.

THE OLD SETTLERS-There was | a fair attendance yesterday at the old Settlers picnic at the camp meeting grounds in Brill's addition. The great est rush was about noon when dinner was served and it was such a dinner ! as the old settlers wives knew how to prepare. There was a season of | speech making in which there were several interesting addresses. the sub ject of former days, being itself inter estiug. Particularly strong addresses were delivered by Judge Pinney, Dr.
 H. A. Hughes and Col. J. H. McClin tock An interesting speaker was Mrs. C. H. Gray, who was the earliest set tier of all. Other speakers were Stu pervisor J. P. Orme. M. M. Jackson,

 INCREASING DOTIES--J. J. Riggs, citizen member of the board of con- trol has been subpOenaed as a mem Der of the federal grand jury in Co.,
 chise county. As the holder of a federal office he is exempt from such service, but being dyed in the wool patriot he would not shirk it for that reason alone. HOweN CT, Thomas Ryn- ming, superintendent of the territorial prison has been subpoenaed as a wit ness before the same tribunal, and the only way he can answer the summons without turning the prison CTS at Florence loose, is to turn them over to Mir. Riggs, as the law pro- vides in such emergencies, the citizen member of the board being required to ride herd on them while the su- perintendent is temporarily off the job. Mir. Riggs has therefore wired the court at Tombstone asking him to please excuse him from jury duty.
 MAN DANGEROUSLY ILL FOUND IN GUTTER-About o'clock yester- day a report came to the police that a man was lying in the gutter in the street west of the Catholic church. The police responded to the hurry call and removed the man to the basement of the city building. A doctor was hur riedly summoned as the patient was found to be in a very serious condi- tion, suffering from severe spasms and exhibiting symptoms which were fn- dicative of poisoning. Heroic meas
 ures were resorted to, and the man, whose name was learned to be Joseph Dupont was finally restored to con- sciOusness and recovered sufficient strength to permit his removal to the county farm. Just what the ailment of the unfortunate was has not been learned. but there were no indications that he had been drinking, as was at first supposed. The condition of the patient is still very grave.

A Detectives Capture.

MT. Silas Morgan, the well-known detective of Logansport, Ind, says: It is always a pleasure to acknowl- edge and to stand by good thing, ing your remedy, for my wife was in very serious state, tortured with rheumatism I searched everywhere in my travels for remedies and spent a large amount of money upon spec ialists. and treatments of various kinds. without success. In the mean time my wife was getting worse her fingers were drawn up like hooks-and had given up. hope of ob- taining a cure. While in Peru, Ind, about two years ago, 1 heard of cures that had been made by the Canadian Remedy, which MT. Jos. M. Bergman had introduced to the cjti- zens. After investigating thoroughly I became convinced that Wright $ Rheumatic Remedy was something worth trying. and took bottle home with me The result was a great surprise to my wife, myself and our friends. 1t did the work and did it quickly. Removed the pain, swelling and aches of years. Only one bot- tie was used. After years of wretched suffering, my wife is we'll and enjoy
 ing good health, free from all the miserable symptoms of the past. have gladly told many sufferers from rheumatism and kidney trouble about your remedy, and know of many in- stances where surprising cures have taken place. My advice is, don't give up the case until you have tried the Canadian Cure, "Wrights Rheumatic Remedy" SILAS MORGAN.

RUTHERFORD ROAD FIRST.

The proposition. Of, J. eM. Parker, president and general manager of the Arkansas, Louisiana and Gulf rail- road, has been submitted to the Pine Bluff Board of Trade, and consider ing the great cost of the proposed ex- tension, it is a liberal one. But We must first get the Rutherford roal, the nearest and most important at this time. About thirty-fonr thous- and dollars of the required fifty thousand dollars has already been pledged. Those who are public-spir- ited and have the welfare of this lit- tie city at heart are sure to come for ward with their subscriptions and complete the work. AS soon as the $50, ,OOO is, raised work will begin immediately on the Rutherford road. Its completion will have tendency to make the promoters of the Parker road more anxious to include this city in it's route We need all the railroads we can get and more. too. The Parker road will be of great ben eft to Pine Bluff and adjacent trade territory. and the Rutherford road will aid materially in bringing it 0 the city Shreveport. Louisiana, sev- eral years ago gave a bonus of S30O,- 000 for one railroad and the sub scribers received no stock in return. Can Pine Bluff property owners af- ford to let this rare opportunity pass without securing both the Rutherford and Parker roads? Hardly.

ABATE THE NUISANCE.

The city council should take some action to abate ' the street sweeping nuisance The streets of the city should be swept nightly, but the man.
 ner in which this work is being car ried out at this time is annoying, un- healthy and absolutely unnecessary
 Each night the sweeper goes through the downtown and residence districts and stifIing clouds of dust follow in its path The dust is thrown into the windows and doors of business houses and residences, and unless pc destrians and others flee they are, su5- iected to most unhealthy conditions. The streets should be sprinkled late at night, before the sweeper is taken out to accomplish it's work, and the sweeper could be operated without annoyance. Throwing dust and debris from the streets into homes and
