Newlands Pacificator.

Apropos OF the controversy between the
various water users associations and the
agents Of the government reclamation
service concerning the regulation Of pay
ments by water users under reclamation
projects, President Newlands took occa"
sion yesterday morning to explain the
exact status of these regulations He
urged tolerance on the part OF the set
tiers upon the reclama tion projects with
the conditions that have arisen. He
warned the congress particularly against
any semblance Of reputation of the sums
due the government from the settlers, II
they desire to preserve the Integrity
Of the promise made by the men who
urged and secured the passage OF the
reclama tion act
President Newlands made his statement
following a discussion OF the increased
cost per acre OF lands under government
projects over the estimated cost when
the settlers first took UP their lands He
said that when the men Of the west were
FIRST urging the reclamation act upon con.
gress the charge was made that within
O few years the settlers would attempt to
relieve themselves Of the debt due the
government for the building Of projects
and that repudiation of this debt might
result.

CHAPTER XIX.

The wanderer had come upon Mrs.
Prynne but once since he had board
ed the Panjnab. That morning, him
self early astir because of his vague
misgivings, he had discovered her on
the hurricane deck of the liner; an in
conspicuous, slight figure in the shad-
ow of a life-boat, leaning upon the
rail and gazing with Che fancied)
troubled eyes, out and across the
waste below Ismalia.
Though she must have been con-
scious of nearing footsteps, she had
not stirred and he had passed on,
gaining but fugitive glimpse of a
profile sweetly serious; nor had she
appeared either at breakfast or lunch
con. A circumstance which led him
to surmise that she did not court OBJ
servation: an idiosyncrasy which
seemed passing strange in woman
so fair.
He told himself that she wore an
air of watchfulness, of vague expec-
fancy, as though she, like himself,
feared some untoward mishap; that
she had the manner of one definitely
apprehensiye, constantly on guard
against some unforeseen peril.
Now, he asked himself, what could
it be? What threatened her? And
why?
He dimly promised himself the
pleasure of her acquaintance, relying
in the rapid intimacy that springs up
between strangers on a long voyage,
with a still more indefinite intention
Of putting himself at her service in
any cause that she might be pleased
to name, Professionally: she must not
interfere with his plans for reaching
Rangoon "in ninety days"
That night he was hoping to find
the lady at dinner; but though the
ships company was small, he failed
to see her in the saloon. at either the
