On the one point and the vital one

OF peace, father and son we're silent
They answered freely every other
question
When the elder Madero and Liman-
tour met recently. the very meeting
was denied. let alone a discussion OF
terms for possible peace. Today it
was admitted the interview concern
ed peace alone.
Senior Limantour. the great fian-
cier. familiar alike with the bourse Of
Paris. with Threadneedle street with
wall street and moneyed Vienna and
Berlin, responded to the presidential
summons to come to the United

orders Of his suverior, Porforio Diaz.
Unofficially, on the surface al least
he conferred with the representa-
tives Of the revolutionists. the father

Limantour agreed to obtain every
concession possible from the govern.
ment to the revolutionists to make
possible formal negotiations for peace
Don Francisco, the elder, promised
likewise. Limantour moved first. The
resignation of the aged Diaz cabine'
followed his first interviews with
President Diaz. In itself 1t was moi
important, as concession TO public
opinion 1t meant everything. It was
evidence Of good faith for which the

Senor Madero and his son have ar
rived here. They asserted positively
their belief that real peace Is at hant
in the war ridden land. They als'
;ntImated that formal negotiations
would take place here.

Protection Of Coal Miners.

The three coal mine disasters which
occurred in Colorado during the last
year. resulting in the death OF about
300 miners, have resulted in proposed
legislation to obtain better inspection
of coal mines. Representative Joseph
Hurd of Boulder introduced bill Ia
the House providing for the division
OF the state into seven coal mining
inspection districts. The bill provides
for the appointment of four additional
deputy coal mine inspectors. one for
each proposed district of the state.
AS proposed in a second bill the
mine inspection department of the
state would consist of a chief inspec
tor. seven deputies instead of four. a
clerk and a stenographer. The salary
of the state mine inspector would be
$1,000 year and that of the deputies
$4,000 year.

A Corner in Candles,

AS an example of trusts and monop-
olies prevalent even in that early day
it may be mentioned that in 1850 one
Benjamin Crabb obtained the exclus-
i've right to make sperm candles in
Massachusetts for IA years.
A year later, however, factory was
started in Providence, R. l., and with
in the decade there were eight fac
tories in New England and one in
Philadelphia Their output greatly re-
duced the price of candles, which not
long before sold for FIVE shillings a
pound. In those days s1.25 was worth
fully three times as much as it Is now.

huenced the rest of the family to do
the same. Even the children are al

good.

CHAPTER X.
WInnsome's Verdict Of Death.

WInnsome's Verdict Of Death.
The voice-the condemning words
followed Nathaniel as he staggered
on between his two guards; 1t haunted
him still as the cold chill of the rot
ting dungeon walls struck in his face;
it remained with him as he stood
swaying in the thick gloom-the voice
rumbling in his ears. the words beat
ing against his brain until the shock
of them sickened him. until he stretch
ed out his arms and there fell from
him such cry as had never tor
tured his lips before.
Strang was alive! He had left the
spark of life in him. and the woman
who loved him had famed 1t back into
full fame.
Strang was alive! And Marion
Marion was his wife!
The voice Of the king taunted him
from the black chaos that hid the
dungeon walls. The words struck at
him. filling his head with shooting
pain. and he tottered back and sank
to the ground to get away from them.
They followed, and that vengeful leer
Of the king was behind them, urging
them on. until they beat his face into
the sticky earth, and smothered him
into what he thought was death.
There came rest after that. a long
silent rest. When Nathaniel slowly
climbed up out Of the ebon shadows
again the first consciousness that
came to him was that the word. demons
had stopped their beating against his
brain and that he no longer heard
the voice OF the king. His relief was
so great that he breathed a restful
sigh. Something touched him then

face and 1t put new life into him.
Somebody had raised him to a sitting

would fall. Nathaniel stiffened him

and opened his eyes again. This time
the pain was not so great. A few
