Lieutenant Cation entered. He ad-
vanced toward me with outstretched
hand, which l grasped warmly, for

questions which should solve my last
remaining doubts.
Captain Wayne" he began soberly.

vorse stress here than supposed,

Sheridan is hasty himself, and his
temper often leads him to rash
language. | am sure he bears you no
malice for what you said But Bren-
nan has his ear, and has whispered

THE opportunity of furnishing the
information desired will be again OF

the charge preferred against you is of
such a private nature that 1t is deemed
best not to make it matter for camp
talk. Whatever 1t may be, Sheridan
evidently feels justified in taking the
case out from the usual channels, and
in using most drastic measures.
am sorry to bring you such news
especially as ] believe the charges
are largely concocted In the brain Of
him who makes them, and have but
the thinnest circumstantial evidence
to sustain them. V. Sheridan is
thoroughly convinced, and will brool

preceding night had seemingly robbed
me OF all my usual buoyancy OF hope.
II one sense | yet trusted that Mrs.
Brennan would keep her pledge aud

failed to do this, and left me to face

such works as the Pyramids or the
great wall of China, or even with the
Roman Haducts.
In the art OF intensive cultivation
the Ifugaos have progressed far. They
irrigate and fertllize in a single op-
Grafton. Water detected from noun
tain streams or arising from springs
passes through decomposed vegetable
matters, ashes, black alluvial soil and
manure, and is then conducted to the
topmost rice terrace, carrying in sus.
pension rich fertilizing matter which
is evenly distributed.
There is thus no part OF a rice
paddy which is not fortified. From
the topmost terrace the water flows
through a gap in the retaining wall to
the terrace next below, still carrying
fertillzing matter in suspension. Most
Of the work in the paddles is done by
the women, who wade about stirring
up the sediment Sometimes the rice
straw of a harvested crop is covered
over with dirt and allowed to rot
The result produces the finest rice
raised in the Philippines, of great size
and 1t is said by experts Of practical
ly perfect form Ranchers in the
west occasionally run an irrigating
ditch through fertilizing matter. but
the practice is not general.
