The Rescue.

1hAE AE4h I've
The Rescue.
With the coming of dawn the
storm passed away northward. A
lurid sunrise gave little promise
of better weather, but by 8
O'Clock the wind had fallen, and
the full tide was swelling the
creeks.
On sand bank, far down
amongst the marshes, Jeanne
stood, hatless, with her hair
streaming in the breeze, her face
turned seward. her eyes full of
an unexpected JOY. Suddenly a
voice came to her from across the
marshes.
She turned round unwillingly,
with a vague feeling of irritation
against this interruption, and In
turning she realized at once that
her period of absorption must
have lasted god deal honger
than she had had any idea OF.
She had walked straight across
the marshes towards the little
hiIIock on which she stood but the
way by which she had come was
no longer visible. She was upon
an island, cut off from the dry
land by a smoothly flowing tidal
way more than twenty yards
across.
Along II a man in a flat-bot-
toned boat was punting his way
| towards her. As soon as he had
attracted her attention he ceased
to shout. and devoted all his at
| tention to reaching her quickly.
| Nevertheless, the salt water was
within a few feet of her when he
brought the punt to a momentary
| standstill. She looked down at
him smiling.
"Shall get in ?" she asked.
"Unless you are thinking OF
swimming back" he answered
drily, "it would be as well.
Andrew de la Borns held out
his strong hand. and she sprang
lightly to the broad seat.
ut is very nice of you," she
said, with her slight foreign ac-
cent, ito come and fetch me.
Should I have been drowned?"
"No!" he answered. "As a mat
ter of fact, the spot where you
were standing is not often alto
gether submerged"
After all, then" she said,
this is not a real adventure.
Where are you going to take me
to-"
ST can only take you," he an
swered, ito the village. l sup
pose you came from the Hall9"
"Yes!" she answered, Il
walked straight across from the
gate. never thought about the
tide coming up here"
"You will have to walk back
by the road" he answered. 1T
is a good deal further round, but
there is no other way"
who are your" she asked,
little curiously. do you live In
the village?"
He looked at her with a faint
smile.
81 live in the village" he an
swered, and my name is An
drew"
Are you a fisherman" she
asked.
Certainly" he answered,
gravely. I'VE are all fishermen
here"
He looked at her long and
searchingly. This was the girl,
then, whom his brother was hop
ing to marry.
You are not English" he re-
marked, a little abruptly.
She shook her head.
my father was a Portuguese"
she said, land my mother French.
was born in England, though.
You, / suppose, have lived here
all your life?"
Can you see out yonder a lit
tie house on the island .theref"
She followed his outstretched
finger.
.'Of course I can" she an
swered. sIs that your homer"
Il am there most of my time"
he answered.
ct must be rather fascinating"
she admitted, ITO live upon an is
land. And are married2"

STARVING
BELGIUM M

The cry of Belgium for food will
appeal to every humane heart in Am
erica, remarks C. c. Goodwin. Four
months ago it was inhabitated by T.
100000 ~peaceable, happy people,. It's
air was filled with the songs of happy
husbandmen, the hum of factories, the
ringing of joy bells, and the land a
dotted by fair cities adorned by won
derful, beautiful structures and the
works of art which its galleries con-
tanned were a worlds delight. And
its continued safety and peace were
ssure by the solemn covenants of
all the strong nations surrounding it.
Now its harvests have been des-
troyed, its soil churned into a desert
by the tread of the vast armies. the
loot beats Of horses and the grind of
artillery wheels; its cities have been
made blackened ruins by the instru-
ments of determination which war
employs; it has been swept by fire
and sword, and from afluence and
comfort its brave people by millions
are starving. Their king from a de-
tenslVe battle field is crying to us to
save his people from starvation. We
are sure the response will be both
prompt and generous, generous as a
sympathizing great people can make
it Think of it, brave men, beautiful
women and little children by millions
on the verge of starvation and only
six days distant from our shores!
We are certain what the
from the people will be, and if in the
absence of congress the president as
sumes the responsibility and orders
such help as the occasion requires
congress will OIL r~econvening ratif,
his act and the people will applaud
The Rockefeller gifts are splendid
but they are not enough, the need i!
oVermastering, the appeal is to tn,
whole American people.

OUR SUFFRAGE
LADIES'.

In last nights issue Of the Elko
Free Press appears an article, signed
by Mrs. r. Roman which is but little
short Of an insult to the suffrage lad
les of Elko, who held a little celebra-
ton at the Mayer Hotel Saturday af-
ternoon in honor of the victory of the
women at the polls last Tuesday.
Two passing strange things con-
nected with the article in question
are, first, that it should eminate from
a lady, and second, that it sould find
place in a Nevada paper protesting
fairness and due respect for Nevada's
womanhood.
The article says in part:
AFTER the talk at the meeting and
several of the women present had ex-
pressed their satisfaction at the result
of the election, a resolution of thanks
was voted the men of Nevada. There
Oh, he shame of it! Two mattresses
appeared upon the scene bearing
trays with glasses filed with what
might be supposed to be grape juice,
but what proved to be something a
great deal stronger, the flavor of
which would indicate it had been mix
ed in the barroom. 1 tasted the liquor
and felt an impulse to shatter the
glass on the floor, but for politeness
sake l simply placed the glass and it's
contents on the table. And again to
the shame of the womanhood Of Ne
vada it seems this one celebration
was not enough, but a large card par
ty to take place soon was announced
and committees appointed to arrange
for it.
In the opinion of the writer if this
is the ideal toward which the Nevada
women r going to use their liberty
l want to say here and now that
am heartily sorry that 1 have helped
in any way to bring to them the re-
sponsibility to which 1 had been &C
customed in my native state, and
which 1 am proud to say has been
used to the honor and credit of wo,
manhood, and If the giving of card
parties and serving of spurious drinks
for celebration is the way of express
ing the Nevada woman's ideal of the
larger liberty, then surely the "anti's"
had strongest grounds for their argu
ments, for they evidently knew the
Nevada women better han l."
The womanhood of Nevada needs
no defense. 1t is of the highest and
purest order, and the general stand
ard of intelligence is as high as car be
found in any state of the United
States or in the world. If there be
women in Nevada to whom the finger
of shame" may be pointed they are
not of Nevada but come from the out,
side.
At the meeting Saturday the ladies
drank to the men who had helped to
secure for them equal franchise
They drank a punch non-alcoholic
and it was so stated to be openly be
fore the meeting, and any impulse to
"shatter the glass on the floor" was
one prompted by pseudo-purist fan
cies.
The Women of Nevada have Won
a proud victory and the satisfaction
theirs of knowing that they employ
ed only the methods of ladies. They
celebrated their victory in a manner
becoming ladies, and while they dc
not pose as angels, it must be said
that they do not bear false witness
against their neighbors.

What a terrible struggle 1t will be

their disappointment over the defeat
OF Sam Plat. With great scare heads
they persistently proclaimed the de-

the result, even when they knew that
