be knew that he was unable to cry
out because of something tight and
sufocating about his mouth.
The truth came t. him swiftly. He
had come up to the coyote on a sledge.
Some one had struck him. He re-
membered that men had half dragged
him over the rocks. and these men
had bound and gagged him and left
him here with the lantern staring him
In the face. But where was he? He
shifted his eyes. straining to pene-

o leave Macdonald without further
loss of time? As the sound of the
picks came nearer his brain began
working faster. n he could only evade
explanations until morning and then
reveal the whole dastardly business to
Macdonald: There would be time then
Tor those explanations. for the running
down of his murderous assailants, and
meanwhile he would be able to keep
his appointment with Meleese.
he was not long In finding q way in
which this scheme could be worked.
and. gathering up the severed ropes
n rawhide. he concealed them be-
tween two of the powder sacks so that
those who entered the coyote would
discover no signs of bis terrible i'm
prisonment. Close to the mouth of the
tunnel there was a black rent In the
wall of rock made by a bursting charge
Of dynamite in which he could conceal
himself. When the men were busy
examining the broken fuse he would
step out and join them. 1t would look
as though he had era wled through the
tunnel after them.
Half an hour later q mass of rock
rolled down close to his feet, and a
Few moments after he saw a shadowy
human form crawling through the hole
1t had left. A second followed, and
b e a third, and the first voice he
heard was that Of Macdonald.
Give us the lantern. Bucky." he call
ed back. and a CLEAN of light shot into
the black chamber. The men walked
cautiously toward the fuse. and How
land saw the little superintendent fall
on his knees. As quietly as a cat
Rowland worked himself to the en-
trance and made a clatter among the
rocks. 1t was he who responded to the
voice.
WHATS up. MacDonaId3"
He coolly Joined the little group.
Macdonald looked up. and when he
saw the new chief bending over him
his eyes stared In unbounded wonder
"Howiand" he gasped.
1t vas all he said. but in that one
word and in the strange excitement in
the superintendent's lace Rowland
read thai which made him turn quick
ly to the men. giving them his first
command as general in chief Of the
road that was going to the bay.
Get out Of the coyote. boys" he
said. I'VE won't do anything more
until morning" ID
To Macdonald as the men went out
ahead of them he added in a low voice:
Guard the entrance to this tuunel
with half n dozen Of you. best men to-
night. Macdonald. know things
which will lead me to investigate this
tomorrow. I'm going to leave you as
o as l get outside. Spread the re-
port hat 1t was simply a bad fuse.

He era wled out ahead of the superin-
tendent. and before Macdonald had
emerged from the coyote he had al
ready lost himself In the starlit gloom
Of the night and was fastening to bis
tryst with the beautiful girl. who, he
believed. would reveal to him at lea st
a part of one Of the strangest and most
diabolical plots that had ever original
ed In the brain of man.

was to meet Meleese. Concealed in
the deep shadows Of the bushes he
seated himself on the end OF q fallen
spruce and loaded his pipe. taking care
to light 1t with the flare of the match
hidden In the hollow Of his hands.
His blood was tingling at fever heat
In his desire for vengeance for the
punishment of the human tends who
had attempted to blow him to atoms,
and yet at the same time there was no
bitterness in him toward the girl. He
was sure that she was an unwilling
factor In the plot and thai she was
doing all in her power to save him. At
the same time he began to realize that
he should no longer be Influenced by
her pleading. He had promised-in re-
turn for her confidence this night-to
leave unpublished those whom she
wished to shield. He would take back
that promise. Before she revealed any
thing to him he would warn her that
he was determined to discover those
who had twice sought to kill him.
1t was nearly midnight when he
looked at his watch again. Was 1t
possible that Meleese would not come?
He could not bring himself to believe
that she knew Of his imprisonment In
the coyote-of this second attempt on
his life. And yet II she did
Suddenly he heard a step. a light run
ming step. and with a recognising cry
he sprang out into the starlight to
meet the slim. painting. white faced
figure that ran to him from between
the thick walls of forest trees.
"Meleese" he exclaimed softly. n
He held out bis arms and the girl
ran straight into them, thrusting her
hands against his breast. throwing
back her head SO that she looked up
Into his face with great, staring. hor-
ror filed eyes.
"Now-now.' she sobbed. nov will

Her hands left bis breast and crept
to his shoulders. Slowly they slipped
over them. and as Rowland pressed
her closer. his lips silent. she gave an
agonized cry and dropped her head
against his shoulder. her whole body

She drew away from him as quickly
as II he had struck her. freeing her
self even from the touch Of his hands.

of negro illiterates is in Louisiana, where also
the average OF llhteracy tor both races is the
highest in the United States.
1t may or may not be a conpensatino
blessing. and may be only in consonance
with the unbalanced condition of so large
a percentage OF the population, but it is true
that the States which have the largest per
centage of illiteracy also tax their people to
the smallest extent. North Caroiina's tax
rate per one thousand dollars of propertv
and per inhabitant is lower than in any
other State. The highest tax rate per one
hundred dollars of property is in Nebraska.
where it amounts 10 1927. against Sl.15
in North Carolina. And the highest tax
rate per capita Is in Colorado. where il
amounts TO Sl9.34, against S2.O4 in North
Carolina. and an average of 80 22 in all the
States
The fact that State has the largest
amount of visible wealth or the greatest
amount of Indebtedness does not seem to
determine the relative tax per one hundred
dollars of property or per inhabitant. New
York, of course, has the largest wealth: but
its tax rate is about two dollars less than
that of Colorado. Also New York has the
largest amount of aggregate Indebtedness;
but the largest Indebtedness per capita is in
Massachusetts,.
Massachusetts, by the way, does not rank
this wear at the head of the national class
in vezy many things, its leadership being
confined 70 the Indebtedness per capita, the
number of Portuguese, the number of Con-
grcgationIlists, and the output OF the fish
cries In the latter the State still retains a
supremacy that, practically, It has never
lost. Virginia, the next in rank, Is nearly
thirty per cent. in the rear. Washington,
the home of the salmon, comes up strongly;
but Yields third place 10 New York.
Speaking of Florida serves to remind one
that the Everglade State has at least two
little points of pride in the matter of rank
One might be the total acreage of swamp
and overflow lands, in which 1t surpasses all
others; but the important two are IN the
outputs of turpentine and rosin, in VIII ch
Florida leaves all other States completely IN
the shade
As one might expect, the largest acreage
of farms, owned and in use, is in the State
with the largest square mileage; but 1t IS
rather surprising 10 know that this same
State, Texas, has the greatest area OF I'M
proved farms. In proportion OF improved TO
unimproved lands, however, Texas does not
lead. That honor is reserved for the busy and
thrifty State of Iowa, which also outranks
all its sisters in the amount of butter, chick
ems. and eggs it produces. Texas gets even
again on her Northern sister by producing
more fowls other than chickens turkeys,
for example-than does any other common
wealth.
In dairy lines. other than butter New
York holds the palm, producing far and
away the most milk and the most cheese.
/ Iowa is second in milk product; but Wis
consin is second on cheese The latter State
has been growing 50 rapidly in its cheese

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. lG.-
Great surprise was occasioneI in gov
ernment and diplomatic CiIcles here
today at the annouEc nr'ent of The
Dc,iai tment of ate that Russia had
notified the United States and had
sent an identic note TO England,
France and Germany of her intention
to make Il military demonstration on
the Chinese frontier to force the Chi
nese government to live up to the
ob.iaetjons of the free trade treaty
of 1881.
Russia's claim is that the Chinese
have imposed duties upon Russian im-
ports coming by way of the Siberian
line and have not fulfilled other OF the
terms of the compact.
While it has been known in diplo-
matte circles for some time that
Chinas recently adopted tariff policy
was being vigorously objected to by
Russia, it was not thought that the
European power would take any dras-
tic steps against the Asian empire at
this time, when the Chinese govern
ment is harassed with plague and
famine among its peoples.
There is no talk of interfering with
the Russian designs in any way al
though apprehension is expressed in
some quarters les. any concentration
of Russian forces on the northern
Chinese frontier should precipitate
trouble into which others of the pow
ers might be drawn.
