Those negro farmers, nearly sew
entv in number, who sold out their
valuable holdings in Suwannee coun-
ty and left the other day in a body
for Africa, are of course headed for
deep disappointment and probable
disaster. They are doubtless the vic
tins of some Slick" member of their
race who is making a good thing out
of this exodus and has painted the
african prospect in such colors
to their credulous minds that they
"fell for the game" without much
trouble on his part. We should be
heartily glad to know that the whole
body of worthless and criminal ne
groes in this country had departed
for the land of their ancestors and
would be absorbed in African Wllds
never to return; but these Suwannee
county negroes are industrious farm
ers and law-abiding citizens, and it
is distressing to think of the future
ahead of them in land without ad-
vantages and where poverty and
Standardization are almost sure to
claim them.

With the fall of the latter city the
road will be open to Queretaro and

chance of reaching the. capital.
Vera Cruz, July 1o.-Huerta's
plight in Mexico City is desperate.
Only two of his faithful generals are
holding back the entire army from
revolt, and terror grows with the fear
that the dictator is growing insane
with his renewed drinking.
This was the picture of the capital
brought here by Alfredo Noriaga,

En- route to Madrid he turned against
Huerta and for the first time revealed
the desperate plight in which the die

he could" he said, ''but he don't dare
for fear the army would learn of it,

He felt her lips on his forehead
After that he slept.
Whom he awoke the room was dark.
A cool moist wind swept strongly In
upon him. He heard the rumble Of
far away retreating thunder. And with
the heat the headache and overpow-
ering fatigue had gone. He drew a
long signing breath. Something stirred
in his hand.
Then in the faint reflection of the
street lamp he saw the figure crouch
ing on the floor at the bedside, her
cheek pillowed in his outstretched
hand. 1t took him a moment to real
ize what had brought her there.
Are you awake?" she whispered.
"Yes."
And better?"
"All right now, thanks to you
Why. you're all wet!"
YES" She rose stiffly to her knees.
Its been storming and 1t rained in
on me little. But it's cooler now."
"And you-What time is it?"
"A clock Just struck four"
"And you've been here all the timer"
Il was afraid you'd wake up and
need some one. And-I wanted to-"
"Kazia. why do you do these things
for me?"
1T is my place."
Her place! What place, then, had
he given her? "Kazia-" he began.
But more than cowardice sealed his
lips. She might have been consciously
fighting for her love. She bent over
and kissed him.

But his presentiment had not told him

He left the foreman and walked
slowly, heavily before the furnaces un-
til he came to his old station. There
he stopped, watching the crew at
work; in particular watching the fig

young man who had endured where
stronger men fell. How neatly he fit

shivered.
Mark Truitt ate-or pretended to
eat-his supper in the saloon that
night. He could not bring himself to
face the ordeal of sitting at table with
Romans family.
There was no sense Of triumph in
his promotion, honestly earned though
it was as his world measured such
things.
He walked to Romans house, with
a firm tread that was the outward ex-
preston Of his mood. He knew just
what was coming. He dreaded 1t, the
moment when he must again face the
man by whose fall he profted, must
again break the sweet ties this life
formed only to sever. Yet he did not
finch. He might rail against the is

had always the courage of his choice.

room. But he knew that she stayed
within hearing.

softly, "and try to sleep. I didn't tell

Training a Cook.

An Irish servant is, of all people in
the world, the most anxious to please,
and she even desires to do exactly as
she is told, even when the commands
laid on her are unreasonable. In
"The Lighter Side of Irish Life" Mr..
G. A. Birmingham gives an amusing
instance of this trait.
A young housekeeper once under
took to train a cook. One day, it
happened that there were whiting for
dinner. She exlained carefully the
proper way of cooking whiting, and,
with view to achieving elegance in
the serving of the dish, added that
these particular fish are usually sent
up to table with their tails in their
mouths.
The fish appeared on the dinner
table, not seductively curled after the
pleasant habit of whiting, but lying
rigidly straight on the dish. Each of
them, however, had it's tail cut off
and neatly inserted into it's mouth.
The inexperienced cook had most
conscientiously obeyed what must
have struck her as a merely vexatious
order.-Youth's Companion.
