The department Of the interior pro-
poses to spend Sl6,647 on the Mesa
Verde National Park during the fiscal
year ending June 30. 1914, II the
amount requested by the secretary

Monday evening the residents of
Ordway were startled by a heavy
shock like an earthquake, followed
Immediately afterward by brilliant
but somewhat sulphurous illumina-
tion. Both were the result OF the
editor Of the New Era striking a
brick while bicycling back to his of.
fee after supper and consequently
taking header. He was thinning
about that new girl in his family and
not paying attention to where he was
going. The other results he accumu.
lated were couple OF skinned knees
and vast lasceration to his feelings,
accompanied by dull, sickening
thud as he struck the ground and
much language. Hence the illumina.

CHAPTER xxxIlI.
A Crisis at the COURTHOUSE.

A Crisis at the Courthouse.
Just at daybreak Yancy was reused
by the pressure OF hand on his
shoulder, and opening his eyes saw
that the judge was bending over him.
'Dress!" he said briefly. There's
every prospect of trouble-get your
rifle and come with mel"
Yancy noted that this prospect OF
trouble seemed to afford the Judge a
pleasurabe sensation; indeed, he had
quite lost his former air OF somber
and suppressed melancholy.
II let you sleep, thinking you need
ed the rest" the Judge went on. But
ever since midnight we've been on the
verge of riot and possible bloodshed.
They've arrested John Murrell-it's
claimed he's planned a servile rebel
lion! A man named Hues, who had
wormed his way into his confidence,
into Memphis, but the local magis-
trate, intimidated, most likely, de.
clined to have anything to do with
holding him. In spite of this, Hues
managed to get his prisoner lodged in
jail, but along about nightfall the sit.
uation began to look serious. Folks
were swarmlng into town armed to
the teeth, and Hues fetched Murrell
across country to Raleigh"

e.oIn With a New Hat.

"a new hat / must have" says the
average woman each season, and a
new hat she does have, even II she
has to go without some Of the neces-
stiles to get it. Now this may seem
foolish to some, but in reality 1t Is
very wise. With a becoming hat
fresh and up-to-date, even though II
is accompanied by an old suit, proVid
ed it is neat and trim, woman passes
as stylish and well dressed. Let heI

HANDY FOR THE TRAVELLERS
Probably Most Convenient Pin cush-
lon That Has Yet Been Brought
Into Common Use.

A pin cushion that lends itself to
the needs Of the traveller is a COM
bination affair Of cushion and jewel
box. The leather frame is green, red
or drak blue, is octagonal in shape,
with a heavily padded cushion top
covered with velvet.
This top fits so tightly into the
lower part that none but the initiated
guesses at the double function Of the
box. This makes it a safe hiding
place for trinkets.
An ingenious girl has copied one of
the combination cushions by using a
fancy candy box, six. inches in dia-
meter and two inches high. She pad
ded the top with wool, covered 1t with
pink chiffon velvet the tone Of the
flowers in the gaily stamped border
and finished the edge with a narrow
silver braid.
Instead OF using the bottom for
jewelry, she turned it into collar
box. The dimensions enable her to
carry more than a dozen collars
without crushing.

improved Spanking Machine.

A spanking machine. operated by
electricity and warranted to cure un.
ruly youngsters. was exhibited at New
York recently. The electric spanker
is constructed somewhat similar to an
electric vibrator. The preliminary
preparations for an electric spanking
are the same as in the olden days.
When the child is ready the hard rub.
Der disk is applied to the area under
treatment and the current turned on.
Small disks are provided for the
younger offenders. To add to the other
advantages Of the electric spanker, 1t
might be said 1t does not pain the
parent more than the child.
