bride came back to the tribes of Ta- halta and Tana, ana they had to laugh over 1t, for the news was that the strong. ugly. oross-tongued wife of Lthkither led him about by his hair, so to speak, and made him dance to her own merry tune" though that was not the way with the Alaskan Indian squaws. who were usually of an obedient nature and minded their husbands like their own children minded them. But in this one instance the wise chiefs of the tribe let the bride keep her hus- band In trap" as they said of the manner in which this particular bride kept her husband under control. And he, being not only hideously ugly, but badly scared over tho face where the hot fish fiat had scalded him on that day when pretty, honest, grace full Tana threw 1t over him, was thankful that even the domineering, cross-tongued young squaw would consent to marry him, and he had rather bad reputation in his own tribe which followed him to his wife's tribe, and caused him to keep much to himself and to try to mend his ways, for in the tribe of others. he had not the right to go about high handed and wolflsh.
 And the pretty, innocent courtship of Tahalta and Tana progressed with | out more trouble. and long days Tana | sat making blankets and other things needful for her own home when she should come Into 1t, while Tahalta studiously caught animals to get their skins for making rugs and | Jackets for pretty Tana, and spent his leisure hours carving on his fine to- tenn pole which was to give the his- tory of his family to his own offspring 1 in the years to come.

folks arranging the betrothal and the property.
 When Tana discovered what was on foot, she smiled and blushed, for it made her very happy. She was just one year younger than Tahalta. and knew that the wedding was not to take place for some time to come; but she would have ample time to make many pretty things for her new home which her young husband would prepare for her. But on the follow ing afternoon. there came another suiter for her hand, tall, gaunt, hid eously-ugly man of still another tribe. a man fully ten years older than her self Tana had often seen this ugly

sons heart became heavy with fear. 'I am sure the baby couldn't have crossed that peak there," she said, pointing to a high point of ground which lay between them and the canyon. "Ill go up and look round. Mamma" said Pearl. So she climbed to the highest point and began to scan the countryside. Then she gave a little cry of joy. "She Is down there! I see the red sunbonnet in the setting sun She's almost within call. I'll run down after her. You take the path home. Mamma, and we'll turn into 1t lower downl" And instantly Pearl was off in the direction of bit of dazzling red which moved on and On down the hillside.

 "Yes that's a very good idea" said "Muver," smiling. Pearl will cut it out for you, darling, and Mamma will show you how to make neat, tiny stitch. In Dolly's last frock your stitches were too long and too irreg- ular. You must be more careful with your sewing"
 "Yes. Muver, I'll be very careful of my new red sunbonnet." promised Bab. T was in dust such a hurry when I finished Dolly's las frock. Muver. at hurried terrible"
 Then they arrived at their pretty mountain cottage and found Daddy had got in from fishing and had brought in a basket full of fresh trout. Then the red sunbonnet was forgotten for that day.

after which the thing would blow over and he would return to claim Tana, thinking that she would consent to become his bride if Tahalta was out of the way. He hated Tahalta for his cleverness and his fine, strong young beauty as much as he hated him because of his having secured the promise of Tana as a future bride.
 Tahalta kept a keen eye on the movements of his enemy, and man aged to dance at given distance from him. Once, however. some young fellow in the dance caught hold of Tahalta in a jolly, friendly way and tossed him to one side. This brought Tahalta's back within three feet of his enemy. With a quick spring and howl, which sounded above the songs and shouts of the noisy dancers. Lthkither made a dash with his right arm towards Tahalta's back, then fled with the rapidity of

her carelessness, Mrs. Clarkson and Pearl set out towards the canyon. leaving word for Mir. Clarkson, whom they were expecting home. to remain there till they returned, and to con- tinue the search about that part of the hillside.
 Mrs. Clarkson and Pearl fairly flew over the rough path. And pretty soon they came to signs of Bab. The path was dusty and they saw her tiny tracks. But soon the tracks were lost where the path became rocky and hard. So on and on they went, again seeing a track here and there to guide them.
 After leaving the boulders where Bad had remained so long hidden they could not again find a trace of the little wanderer, and Mrs. Clark

- HE Indian village in which A young Tahalta lived was in
 Southeastern Alaska. Tahalta's
 father and mother had had bad luck with their five children, all save Tahalta dying in their infancy. But Tahalta had been left to cheer their declining years, and was the youngest of their five children.
 Tahalta's father was nearing his six .tieth year and his mother few years her husbands junior. And neither was in rugged health, and both re- alized that life numbered few years for them.
 Therefore, 1t was not unnatural that they should want to see their son set tied in life, which Is to say, happily married to some pretty dark-skinned maiden of a friendly tribe. Tahalta was seventeen. and many of the boys of the Northern Indian tribes were married at that age. But Tahalta's father had counseled well with his obedient and affectionate son and had advised him to wait till he was twenty before bringing home wife. But he had also advised his sons beginning his courtship, for then the old man would know just what tribe his grand children would belong to, and would make arrangements accordingly. You see, the children always belong to the mothers tribe, and use her crest and are incorporated as members of her family. So 1t pleased Tahalta's fa- tber to see that his son had a prom oF fa av,,t1 fore he, the old father. should pass on to his fathers. And to this the mother agreed. -(Although the Alas kan Indian mother has little or no voice in such matters.)
 So after many months of looking about, a pretty and charming maiden came under the notice of Tahalta and his father. She belonged to friendly tribe which had its village near to the village in which Tahalta lived. The meeting of the young couple took place at 'potlatch" Ca feast where gifts are presented to the guests) which was given by Tahalta's father. Thither the maiden came with her mother to help to make the prepara- tions for the great feast. And there she and ,Tahalta beheld each other and became friends. Even though a youth, Tahalta had been so carefully raised and earnestly and wisely in structed that he could read human nature as well as could many of his elders. And when he saw the pretty, industrious, clean, graceful Tana, he knew she was a thoroughly lovable and honorable girl. He spoke to his father regarding Tana, and his father watched Tana very closely during the potlatch. and that night he spoke about the maiden to his good wife. She agreed that never had she seen a lovelier girl. one more modest and helpful and kind.
 So the following day, with Tahalta on the sledge behind him, the good man rode to the neighboring village and called upon Tana's people. There the regular form was gone through with-the fathers of the two young

And Pearl picked up the little sister and carried her on her back to their mother who took her baby in her arms and cried and cried for very joy. She kissed the little pink face. and the little red sunbonnet too. For she declared that if it hadn't been for the red sunbonnet they might not have found Bab so easily. Pearl had noticed how Bab's dark little jacket bl.nded in with the grey of the rocks and evening shadows. It was the bit of flaming calico 1ich had caught her eye and guided her to the lost child.

ing how soon the regiment could be
counted on to move from the post, la :
night caused every enlisted man Of
the 18th infantry 10 be confined 10
quarters for the night. Col. Van Ors-
dale's reply 10 Washington was that
an hours notice would be sufficient.
The information sought by the depart
ment is believed 10 be in connection
with a possible movement Of troops to
the Mexican border
The plans Of the general staff for a
campaign in Mexico were prepared
long ago and have been in a state of
constant revision. Generally they con-
template the employment of about
100, 900 men, 10000 Of whom would be

number would be so 900 militiamen.
While the regular troops would be

Briefly, he desires the board to put an

Advertising is mighty fine thing,
and the Star is heartily in favor Of it,
but it is the Stars opinion that if the
board of trade, the board Of county
commissioners, etc, desire TO advertise
Ocala and Marion county, they are
pouring money in a rathole to adver-
tise in the Times-U Union. Some time
ago, two of our public spirited citizens
raised 5000 for an advertisement Of
our city and county in the Times
Union, and up to date the said adver-
tisement has not brought a single in

The motor car and one of the logging

DR.. Tribble and the negro each had a
leg broken, and it afterwards develop
ed that the doctor was injured inter
nally, from which injuries he died
this morning.
The Times-Union and Banner have
published accounts of the accident and
the Cummings station being on both
roads, gave the impression that the ac-
cident occurred on the Ocala North

not on that road nor near ii. Dr. Trib-

there.

comedian, Johnny Calvin and the
dainty little soubrette, Ella Calvin, as
the principal funmakers. and a large
number of capable actors and a chorus
that can sing and dance.

catchy. easily remembered and more
easily whistled, the kind that every

feature numbers than any musical
comedy on the road today Every
thing is new and up-to-date and each
solo, duet, quartet number is given
with a verve and vim that show the
best and most artistic stage manage
ment.
Johnny Calvin himself is one OF
those pleasing hammered boys, bub-
bling over with ginger, who sings
dances and keeps things on the &C
very much as does his famous contem-
porary, Geo. NJ Conan, although he a
no time initiates him.
Ella Calvin, the soubrette with "-'
