I there was no further doubt that l would
live for many year.
But my recovery was slow, and as
Mariposa was my nurse, the work OF
the clachan. There was little to be
done however, for the winter was a
hard one, and before the sowing, sea-
son began events took place that left
the farm TO Itself.
During those winter months the farm
slept, you might say. There was an
old spinet IN the loft and Mariposa
learned to play on 1t with quite some
skill She would sit by 1t for hours,
improvising airs and rimeless verses In
her wild Gaelic-Spanish way. There
was one song of her own make which
often runs in my head:
When the woods are groanin'.
And cauld the night.
And the hare is greetin'
BY the door.
And the ewes are bleatin'
In the glen,
Then coorie doom, lad,
It's winter fair.
Syne Ii be mornin
Ye're sair to wake.
Who'll make the fire
And boil the pot?
Who'll soup the byre
And milk the COOS?
But coorie doom, lad,
It's winter fair.

nothing but the table to write on with
bits of rough chalk or charred sticks.
l have told you nothing Of our love,
but the ready mind will understand the
tenderness that marked all our dealings
with the Israelites and the letters.
Sometimes We left the poor tribes in the
middle of the Red sea-that was the
Firth of Clyde-with Black Archibald
that was Pharaoh-at their heels and
spoke of Mariposa's father and mother,
for the story of Don John and Mistress
Mary was now thing Of tremendous
meaning to her.

well enough to be about, and we had

turned sixteen.
Mariposa solved the problem with
her quick wit and good heart. = She
made up her mind to brave the guid-
wives Of the village and doctor their
poor. sick children. And 80 that L

q boat from the village. This boat we

weather was fine I went sailing and

the guidwives-for they were half afraid

Mill Soon Win Great la
Dor War.
Especial to the Newark star-l

PATERSON. N. j.. May 2-The first
glimrner of victory reariied the $4,000
silk strikers today in report CT a
serious split between the larger and
smaller manufacturers.
Hard hit financially by the pro-
longed labor war. owners of nifty Of
these less important mills are said to
be willing to compromise.
They held secret meeting nj the
Colt building last night and took the
first steps, it is said towards settling
with their insurgent workmen.
Lacking the vast capital backing OF
the big silk manufacturers, the small
er mili-owners have felt the strain
caused by the strike until they are
prepared to make terms, according to
an announcement at strike headquar-
ters. Orders have accumulated in
such numbers and the demands are
SO urgent for silks that the smaller
manufacturers are said to see a way
of cleaning up large profit in break
ing the strike and starting their mills
going.
Feeling between the small manufac-
turers and the big mill-owners has
been tense for several weeks. it is re-
ported The smaller men desired
financial assistance TO be able to re-
main closed and thus prevent an I'M
broken front to the strikers. but it
was said that they have been disap-
pointed in this and last night were
considering the suggestion of breaking
away from the association and deal
ing with the strikers Independently.
Efforts on the part of the smaller
manufacturers TO induce the big mill
owners to consider a compromise pro-
oosal to the strikers failed. il was
reported last night When the sug-
gestion was made at a meeting OF the
owners a few days ago it is said that
two of the owners became SO bitter
that fist fight resulted, and one was
beaten so severely that he is said to
be confined to his home.

CHINA RECOGNIZED
] BY UNITED STATES
Other Powers, Parties to Six
Power Loan, May Announce
Decision.

WASHINGTON. May 2.-The new
Chinese republic was formally recog-
nized today by the United States.
Charge williams, at Picking. cabled
that he had delivered the formal rec
ognition. as he was authorized to do
upon complete organization of the
new government
This governments action has
created a most interesting interna-
tional situation and brings to the
point the intentions of the five other
powers, parties to the six power loan
negotiation, from which the United
States recently withdrew, announc-
ing it's purpose to recognize China
and urging the others to do the same.
1t is known that some of the pow
ers. at least required more than a
mere organization of a national legis-
lature, between which and the pro-
visional executive serious friction al
ready had developed, and that they
were originally disposed to await the
installation of aspresident chosen by
constitutional methods and with evil
dent adequate support to maintain
himself
On the other hand the recent action
of Yuan Shih Kai in concluding q
loan for s125000.00O with the five
power group is expected to prove a
powerful incentive to those govern
ments to support Yuan Shih Kai by
joining in the recognition of China
accorded today by the United States.
