his lips as he realized that in all prob
ability the question OF right to the girl
the both loved had been solved for
them.
After a weary tramp Of eight miles
the dispirited men reached the Mexican
camp, and were driven, like cattle, into
small corral having low adobe wall
some five feet high around it.

The elder tried to turn away, but
his heart failed him, and half furtively
and wholly ashamed at his weakness,

| II fear, lad, that we'll never leave
this pen alive,," he said after a bit;
these brutes have no pity. Hullo,
what's that?"
| AS he was speaking a squad of Mex

for the others. The men that draw
black beans will fall in on the right
end of the corral, those that have the
luck to draw white ones will go to the
left. You understand. dearest friends,
that the black bean means death In
ten minutes"
A low hum sounded from the crowd
the only sign they gave of tension or
of fear. The momentary panic had
passed away, and each man was ready
to look death in the face without a
tremor.
Fall in," reared the officer, and ST.
lently the invaders fell in, for what
was for many their last parade on
earth.
Then with fiendish slowness the
beans were covered with a cloth, and
one or two of the Mexican ms tried the

supportable Now the column had
crossed the ill-defined frontier and no
enemy had yet appeared.
Not one Of the devoted band realized
that along the heights above the crafty
Mexican soldiers were stalking their
prey. waiting until the ground made
their success certain. Had Wallace
been himself he would have remedied
all this, but his one hope now was re-
venge.
One night Hurst, who found that his
old friend was avoiding him, plucked
up courage and made the first advance.

her, though, for by the eternal, I'll not
stand by and see you marry her. You
must take your long rifle directly we
come to the camping ground, and at q
hundred PAGES let the best man win.
What, are you a coward, too?"
Before the lad couldspeak pattering
of rifle fire began to search out the
unwieldy string of men. They had
penetrated into a long defile, and were
slouching along at its foot. without an
advance guard or one precautton to
prevent a surprise. Nothing but few
puffs of smoke to the right, left, and
front betrayed the presence OF any
| thing unusual but the rapidly falling
men showed how straight was the aim
| Of the hidden enemy.
The column broke into helpless dis

Firing wildly in every direction, the
tried hunters, the trained frontiersmen

his comrades fell thick around him
Wallace. who alone kept some control
over himself, took out his Handkerchief
and tying it on his ramrod waved IL
high above his head. The others saw
| it and copied his action, at the same

Sullenly the prisoners were driven

Harper's Weekly: Not many years
ago there lived IN a small town Of
Vermont a worthy Deacon Barker, who
had managed to put by tidy sum, the
proceeds of the business done at his
notion store.
Now, Deacon Barker thought pretty
well Of himself and as he progressed
towards the realization Of his ideal,
which was, to become the richest man
in the town, it was observed by tho
majority of his neighbors that his self.
esteem increased in direct ratio to his
wealth. So that In time the worthy
Deacon Barker actually deemed himself
the most important parsonage in the
vicinity-almost, in fact, it's patron
saint.
One day man from place near by
was visiting the deacon. Said he;
Deacon, it certainly seems that your
townsmen hold you in high esteem"
The deacon smiled complacently. II

The Negro Property Holder.

New York World: In a recent lee
ture Booker T. Washington said that
one-twenty-sixth of the soil of Vir-
ginia was owned by negroes, according
to the official records.
The negro race has developed more
rapidly in the thirty years Of its free
dom than the Latin race had in 1000
years of freedom. About IS per cent.
of Italians. IS per cent. OF Spaniards
20 per cent. of Russians, and 80 pei
cent. of South Americans were litter
ate, but after thirty years of freedom
only 81 per cent of the the negro race
were illiterate.
In Georgia" Mr.. Washington said
1916. 100000 is the taxable value Of the
negroes property. Probably the COL
ored man has learned the lesson OF
hiding its real value from his white
brother; the figures ought to be over
$4,000, 0OO."

The little frontier town Of San Car
Jos was simmering with excitement,
Tor the threatened invasion OF Mexico
was to be an accomplished fact. From
Venturers rolled up to the gathering
place, until four hundred Of the best
lighters in the world were waiting for
the word, Advanced"
Scallywags and desperadoes, good
men and bad men, all were equally
fired by the Wanderlust and by the
thoughts of the lovely Eldorado away
they always have done when fathers
and lovers, husbands on brothers, ride
away into the unknown.
To Grace Thatcher, the belle Of San
Carlos, the expedition was a hateful
thing. Far and wide the rough from
tiersmen owed her allegiance for her
beauty and courage, and not a man
but would have laid down his life for
her. And now, just when she had mar
rowed her choice of admirers down to
two, 1t was cruelty hard to have to
rush decision upon which SO much
depended.
William Wallace was the most suit
able. OF that there was no doubt;
but he was forty, and already in his
black hair silver streaks showed thick
traces Of early hardships. Money was
his, and much cattle. but-his rival
was young. All the world loved Len
Hurst, lad of barely twenty, and
from whose face the down Of boyhood
had scarcely passed. They loved him
for his pluck and for his merry laugh,
which rang out like an inspiriting
bugle in the strangest of places.
1t was the night before the start of
the invaders, and Grace was feeding
her chickens, just as she had done
since she was child. There was a
soft flush on her cheeks and a smile of
happiness on her face which ought to
have warned Wallace as from the gate
he devoured her with his eyes.
OF love hitherto he had been ignor-
ant, with the ignorance of the hardy
mountaineers, whose life is full from
morning until evening, and now every
fiber Of his body thrilled with passion
He hardly dared to breathe lest she
should be startled by his sudden ap-
pearance, but her instinct warned her
and she turned and saw him.
A lovely color stole over her face

WE'D At SPRINGS

Say, can you get us "a marriage
license?" 1t was Gilbert Ewell speak
ing to Deputy County Treasurer C.
w. Smith who was returning home
from the lower Grand valley yestei-
day via Midland No. 6, says the Glen
wood Avalanche.
1t was evident that Mr.. Ewell.
while he knew Mr.. Smith, had for
gotten the latter's official position
and mistook him for the county clerk.
Mr.. Smith. always willing to help
brother man in time of need. agreed
to make arrangements for the license.
He was then asked regarding
preacher to perform the ceremony.
Now it happened that Rev. John
Dickey. pastor of the Methodist
church of this city was on the same
train, but as 1t reached Palisade, he
got off to secure a few boxes of peach
es, intending to catch the next train
for his Glenwood home. MIR. Smith
saw the reverend gentleman on the
platform and hustled out of the car
and urged him to come on. informing
him that wedding was on tap. Mr..
Smith agreed to rustic the peaches
and just as the train was starting. he
returned with a couple of boyes OF
the luscious fruit. In the meantime.
Mr.. Ewell had assured Rev. Dickay
several boxes of peoches, if he would
return to the train and come o.
home.
Reaching New Castle, Mr.. Smith
left the train and tehephoned to Coun-
ty Clerk Hubbard to meet Mr.. Ewcll
and Miss BERTHE f. Lippert, the bride

Ann Arbor. Mich, Aug. 26.-When
the different candidates appear at
Whitmore Lake, 10 miles from here,
September ls. in answer to invita-
tions sent out by Coach Yost, some
line may be gotten on the strength
of Michigan's football team for 1910,
but anything doped out before then
is mostly guess work At the athletic
office they refuse to make public
the names of the men receiving these
much priced invitations before the
middle of next week, for the reason
that they have not received accept
ances or regrets TO all the little cards
sent out. IL is sufficient evidence
that there is no thought of another
lean year for Michigan. by the man
ner in which Athletic Director Barth-
cline beams when asked what kind of
team Michigan looks to have at this
time. He replies:
We'll, of course, it's taking a long
chance any kind of guess at this
date. but from the letters we have
received and from the old men who
will be back, | should say that Mich
igan's prospects for a winning team
are excellent, fully as good as last
year"
Yost knows fairly well the strength
of Minnesota and of Pennsylvania,
and he will keep his best men for
those games. Those games he must
win. But the game that is probably
troubling him the worst, although he
won't confess it, is the game with the
little Irish bunch down at Notre
Dame, the bunch that Shorty Long
man coached last year to cut the
scalplock from the Yost warriors.
They play Michigan on November 5
and 1t will be the hardest fought bat
tie ever played on Ferry field. 1t
comes too early in the season to be
certain of the strength of the Yost
machine. and il will be unsafe to risk
too much, with the two big games
coming on on succeeding Saturdays.
This is the game that will try Yost's

Bcdwen Denied Reinstatement.

Lexington. Ky. Aug. 26.-The
Kentucky state racing commission
yesterday refused the applications of
II. G. Bedwell of Denver and John
Marklein of Cincinnati for reinstate-
ment on the turf. Both men appear
ed before the commission with at
torneys. Bedwell offering an affidavit
from negro stable hand. who swore
he had drugged the horse Nadzu with
out Bedwells knowledge and that the
owner was not responsible for the
condition of the animal when it ap-
peared crazed in the Latonia paddock.
Bedwell asked the commission that
he be allowed to sell his horses in
good standing even if he were not
permitted to race them again, but
the commission was unchangeable.
Bedwell asserted that his horses are
worth $4,000. but are practically
valueless unless they can be raced.
Marklein's case resulted from the
inconsistent running of one of his
horses at the local meeting.
