THE MExIcAN's GRATITUDE"

This is an adaptation Of o. Henrys
story, "a Chapparral Christmas
Gift"
When Rosita McMullen, of Silver
Plume, Col. found herself unable to
choose between the Frio Kid and
Madison Lane she tossed her SOM
brero into the dusty road and an
nounced that she would marry the
man who first picked IL up. And
right there Madison Lane demon
strated the superiority of mind over
matter, for, while the Frio Kid was
trying to grab the hat from the back
of cavorting bronco, Madison Lane
mounted himself on a fence rail and,
galloping up to the hat, picked it up
at the first attempt.
The k'rio Kid was hard loser As
he galloped away from the scene Of
his vanquishment he already was re-
volving in his brain schemes for re-
venge On the day of the wedding
the results of his cogitations mani
tested themselves He made his ap-
pearance just as the clergyman was
tying the nuptial knot, tried TO kill
the bridegroom, and did succeed in
shooting two other men.
Thereafter the Frio Kid embarked
on a career of passionate activity
which ia still discussed with admira-
ton and anger in two States. Accom-
panied by the equally notorious Mex
lean Frank, he dynamite "ains, shot

Trade Is Blamed by Wharf Deal

According to the dealers in water
melons at the 18th street wharf market,
the bottom has dropped out Of the
melon market, and they do not care
how soon the season is over and the
last melon-running craft departs to
take up oyster OF freighting work.
This morning there were five. melon
carrying craft lying at the 18th street
wharf, but altogether. 1t was stated,
they did not have aboard over 5000
melons, and they were selling, the deal
ers said. at anything they. could get for
them, although there was some select
fruit on sale
As far as known :but two more melon
laden craft are to come here this sea-
son. There may be. others. but If SO the
dealers have no advices regarding them
In the early part Of the summer the
melon business was good, but for the
past month, the dealers say. it has been
very dull. This is due in part to the
early coming of cool weather, but the
men at the wharf ascribe much Of the
dizziness to the fact that the uptown
retail dealers. with but few exceptions
have charged fancy prices for melons,
and at the, time they were selling at IL
and 10 cents at the wharf for the best
melons the retailers were asking from
80 to 35 cents and even higher for the

GOVERNOR Of MAINE
Oakley c. Curtis Defeats William T.
Haines by Unofficial Returns.
Progressive Vote Slumps.

PORTLAND, Me-, September 15.-The
democratic victory In Names state
election yesterday was measured by
the 1857 plurality by which Mayor
Oakley C. Curtis of Portland defeated
Gov. William T. Haines, republican,
for reelection, according to unofficial
returns from all but thirty-seven of
the 521 cities and towns today. All
four representatives in Congress, three
republicans and one democrat, were
reelected.
In vote heavier than that cast at
the last presidential election both
Haines and Curtis ran well ahead of
the Taft and Wilson figures. while the
progressive vote cast for Halbert j..
Gardner, the head of the ticket,
showed a pronounced slump from that
cast for Roosevelt.
The comparative returns available
from 4s4 cities and towns give:
Haines. republican, 1852; Taft. re-
Curtis. democrat, 61.24s; Wilson,
democrat. 50,451.
Gardner, progressive, 17,443; Roose-
Welt, progressive, 47,9o4.
Vote Exceeds That in 1912.
The total vote at hand, 136,354, ex-
ceeded that from the same places in
1912 by 11,S7S. The republicans showed
an increase Of 31,541, against pro-
gressive loss Of 30,461. The demo-
cratic gain was 1878.

ture indicated that on joint ballot

In the course of the debate Repre-

nent erected on the plaza on which
would be inscribed the fact that in five
years $50 men had made up 100 con-
aemnation jurieS:-.
Why do you want experienced jury
men on tbs condemnation case Of the

Logue said that Representative john

is "captious." The phrase in the resolu-
ton providing for the jury. as X Re
sentative Burnett of Alabama, chairman
of the public buildings and grounds COM
mittee pointed out, calls for six ex-
perienced, judicious, disinteresteo men,
and not for experienced jurymen."
The committee of the whole did not
fin sh the bill yesterday, but will prob
ably take it up again two weeks hence.
There is considerable opinion in the
