THE GROWTH OF VILLAGES.

With the ever-increasing overflow
of population from the great centers,
the growth of the village is surround
ing territory is foregone conclu-
sion. In Bergen county the village
growth has been one of the most inn
portant factors in this section of New
Jersey, and much advancement is
making in this direction every year.
1t will not be many years before the
entire county will be one string of
villages, from the Palisades on the
east, to beyond Hackensack on the
west
The village has long been the
worlds favorite place of residence
Tor the home-loving man, and modern
conveniences have done much to add
to the joys OF being in the country.
The most of the best there is in the
world has come from the village

THE WOMAN'S CLUB.

1t is with much qualification that
the announcement is made that the
Woman's Club of Palisade is TAX
ing on new lease of life and is
about to apply for membership in
the Federation of Women's Clubs of
New Jersey. No one local organiza-
ton has done as much genuine good
for social Palisade as the Woman's
Club, and it is to be hoped that it
will have long and successful ca
reer. Every encouragement should
be offered the efforts of the good
women comprising the membership.
They will see to it themselves that
all of their entertainments reflect
credit upon the community. Already
they have given some notable func-

THE VOTES OF PALISADE.

The latest poll of the voters of
Palisade gives us one hundred and
thirty-two votes. This indicates a
very substantial growth, and no doubt
surprises many who did not suppose
the number SO large. At the present
rate of growth, it will not be long
before Palisade must be regarded as
an important factor in any political
contest, if indeed it is not already
in that position. No portion of the
Borough has grown as rapidly as
Palisade, and none promises as much
for the future.

for is fair Standardization in
accordance with its desserts, measur-
ed by the taxes it contributes. There
is no fear that justice will not be
fully melted to us. Fort Lee has
given Palisade every consideration so
far, and the public here does not ex-
pect the liberal policy to be changed.
1t was unfortunate, therefore, that
the remark was made, since it did not
voice the sentiment here in any sense.

In this connection it will be per-
missable to add that the clubs presi-

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-Grapes are

hausted to undertake controversy,
even if it were to be thought of, and
it was not.
Nothing further was needed to con-
plete his humiliation. He picked up
his hat and with the thought of get
ting out as quietly as he had come in.
In rising he swept tumbler at his
elbow from the table. The glass broke
on the floor, and Marion exclaimed:
What is that?" and started for the
dining room.
1t was too late to get away. Nc
Cloud stepped to the portieres of the
trimming room door and pushed them
aside. Marion stood with a hat in her
hand, and Dicksie, sitting at the table,
was looking directly at the intruder as
he appeared in the doorway. She saw
in him her pleasant acquaintance of
the wreck at Smoky Creek whose
name she had not learned. In her sur
prise, she rose to her feet, and Marion
spoke quickly: ooh, MI. McCloud, is
it you? l did not hear you come in"
WHICH, udQ llShlON,
became a spectacle of confusion after
she heard the name. McCloud, con-
scious of the awkwardness of his po-
s;tion and the disorder of his garb,
said the worst thing at once: Il fear
/ am inadvertently overhearing your
conversation"
He looked at Dicksie as he spoke,
chiefly because he could not help it,
and this made matters hopeless.
She flushed more deeply. Il can
not conceive why our conversation

to steady him. 81 tried to get away"

holding out her hand.
Marion, having tried once or twice
to intervene, stood between the firing
lines in helpless amazement. Her ex-
carnations were lost; the two before
her gave no heed to ordinary inter
vention.
McClouud flushed at being cut off,
but he bowed. "Of course" he said,
III you will listen to no explanation
I can only withdraw"
He went back, dinnerless, to work
all night; but the switchbacks were
doing capitally, and all night long
trains were rolling through Medicine
Bend from the west in an endless
string. In the morning the yard was
nearly cleared of west-bound tonnage.
Moreover, the mail in the morning
brought compensation. A letter came
from Glover telling him not 70 worry
himself to death over the tie-up, and
one came from Bucks telling him to
make ready for the building of the
Crawling Stone line.
McCloud told Rooney Lee that If

and pull them to the water-tank
mile east of the station. Three men
there in waiting forced the express
car, blew open the safe, and the gang
rode away half an hour later loaded
with gold coin and currency.
Had a stick of dynamite been ex-
ploded under the Wickiup there could
not have been more excitement at
Medicine Bend. Within three hours
after the news reached the town q
posse under Sheriff Van Horn, with a
car load of horsefesh and IA guns,
was started for Sugar Buttes. The
trail led north and the pursuers rode
until nearly nightfall. They crossed
Dutch fat and rode single file into a
wooded canyon, where they came
upon traces of a campfire. Van Horn,
leading, jumped from his horse and
thrust his hand into the ashes; they
were still warm, and he shouted to his
men to ride up. AS he called out, a
rifiecracked from the box-elder trees
ahead of him. The sheriff fell, shot
through the head, and deputy spring
ing from his saddle to pick him up was
shot in precisely the same way; the
posse, thrown into a panic, did not
fire a single shot, and for an hour
dared not ride back for the bodies.
After dark they got the two dead men
and at midnight rode with them into
Sleepy Cat.
When the news reached McCloud he
was talking with Bucks over the wires.
Bucks had got into headquarters at
the river late that night, and was get
ting details from McCloud of the Sugar

dent sent him the news of the killing
of Van Horn and the deputy. In the

CHAPTER TX.
Sweepino Orders.

sweeping OroerSs
The burning of Smoky Creek bridge
was hardly off the minds of the noun
tain men when a disaster of a differ
ent sort befell the division. In the
Rat valley east of Sleepy Cat the main
line springs between two ranges of
hills with dip and a long supported
grade in each direction. At the point
of the dip there is switch from
which spur runs to granite quarry.
The track for two miles is straight
and the switch-target and lights are
seen easily from either direction save
at one particular moment of the day
"a moment which is in the valley
neither quite day nor quite night.
Down this grade, few weeks after
the Smoky Creek fire, came double
headed stock train from the Short
Line with 40 cars of steers. The
switch stood open; this much was
afterward abundantly proved. The
train came down the grade very fast
to gain speed for the hill ahead of it.
The head engineman, too late, saw the
open target. He applied the emergency
tied the alarm. The mightiest efforts
of a dozen engines would have been
powerless to check the heavy train
On the quarry track stood three fiat
cars loaded with granite blocks for the
abutment of the new Smoky Creek
bridge. On a sanded track, rolling at
80 miles an hour and screaming in the

heavy engines struck the switch like
an avalanche, reared upon the granite
laden flats, and with 40 loads of cattle
plunged into the canyon below; not a
car remained on the rails. The head
brakeman, riding in the second cab,
was instantly killed, and the engine
crews, who jumped, were badly hurt.
The whole operating department of
the road was stirred. What made the
affair more dreadful was that it had
occurred on the time of Number Six,
the east-bound passenger train. held
that morning at Sleepy Cat by an en-
CINE failure. Glover came to look into
the matter. "ile testimony of all
tended to one conciusion-that the
quarry switch had been thrown at
some time between 4:30 and o'clock
that morning. differences were many:
Tramps during the early summer had
been unusually troublesome and many
of them had been vigorously handled
by trainmen; robbery might have been
a motive, as the express cars on train
Number Six carried heavy specie ship
ments from the coast.
A third and more exciting event soon
put the quarry wreck into the back
ground. Ten days afterward an east
bound passenger train was tagged in
the night at Sugar Buttes, IL miles
west of Sleepy Cat. When the heavy
train slowed up, two men boarded the
engine and with pistols compelled the
