Woman's Gratitude,

The princess was sitting on one of
the benches of the upper deck, attired
in the costume of Little Russia, with
the Japanese parasol turned toward
the sun, over her shoulder. Hardy
had rather avoided her since the Incl
dent Of the brigands, as he felt that
any attempt at friendship on his part
would be taking advantage Of the
service he had been able to render
her-a service which, he assured him
self, he would have performed just as
eagerly for the humblest peasant
woman on the boat. The Romanovna.

since that dreadful happening, re
naming in her cabin until now, under
the care Of her maid.

was ~promenading the little deck. He
threw away his cigar, removed his
hat and bowed very low. He noticed
that she was still pale and that hel
eyes looked u~nnaturally large. "Parlez

sweetly, with a perfect Partisan &C

Rich Territory Opened Up.

The development of the Brazilian
Amazon valley must in time amount
to untold wealth. In the states Of
Para and the Amazonas and the fed
eral territory of Acre there are near
the waters edge 100000 rubber
bearing trees of the Hevea variety.
These trees, if properly tapped, will
live indefinitely and steadily increase
their yield. The state of Para is con-
siderably larger than Texas, and much
Of it will grow excellent cotton.

A workman was packing salt about
