CHAPTER XIII.
A Night Rendezvous.


Before Holton could make answer,
young Cuban galioped by on horse
back. So 1.-THE was he, SO clean
limbed, his uniform so spick and span,
his face SO handsome, that Holton
turned to glance after him. He, too,
was turning to gaze at Holton, and
now brought his horse to sharp halt.
Noting this, the navy man walked
toward the fellow, feeling that he had
seen him somewhere before but pug
zled to know where.
The young soldier, with head turned
over shoulder, nodded to Holton, and
then, with a sweep of the hand, beck
oned him toward a group of small
palms, whittier he urged his horse
at slow walk The naval officer fol-
lowed and came to standstill beside
the beautiful animal.
The boyle was little more-bent
down and looked at Holton moment.
Then he smiled and held out his hand.
you have been pointed out to me
as Lieutenant Holton," he said. Are
you he?"
Holton looked at the other steadily
without answering. A thrill passed
over him.
Il could almost say" he replied
finally. that you are Miss La Tossa
in disguise"
You would be pretty nearly right,
was the laughing response; Il am her
brother"
Obi" Holton reached up and seized
the lads hand. Il am very happy to
see you. Where is your sister,"
"At home. l stole in to visit her
last night. She wished me to find you
and to ask you to accompany me to
place beyond Sevilla at once. She
will await us on the road and will
have something of Importance to say
TO you. | do not know what 1t is
But" Holton hesitated. Il have
just come In from Santiago at some
peril | have work to do here"
The boy smiled at him.
There will be no peril in return
ing with me. We Cubans," he gri-
maced, have a secret route into the
city which has always been kept open.
1t is open now. You must come with
me; my sister has news of great I'M
portance you must hear"
Holton needed no great incentive
to accompany the other. He still wore
his Spaniard's uniform, with the adj
dition OF an army hat bearing the
insignia of the Fifth Corps, and he
felt himself sartorially well qualified
once more to penetrate the ranks or
the enemy, If that were necessary.
With the young Cuban for guide,
he felt that danger was reduced to a
minimum.
Il have pony you may ride" con-
unued the boy, mistaking Holton's
silence for hesitation.
"Oh, I'll go, even if | walk" returned
Holton, but l certainly shall appre-
ciate the horse"
Sunset was the hour and the Cuban
camp the rendezvous agreed upon
by the two, and after shaking hands
with the young man, Holton returned
to his own lines and made hiss way
to Skaters headquarters. The com,
mander-fn-chief was in wretched phys
ical condition, and the able and sn-

Enjoyment

DO you get much enjoyment out
of the new dances?" they asked the
stout man Of mellow years.
Enjoyment" he echoed. Watch
me-"
Selling his partner in grip of iron,
he ambled to the right, kicked to the
left, doubled his knees, kicked all
around, lunged ahead, dipped to the
rear, kicked some more, took q short
run, beat a retreat, nicked a passing
couple and sank down heavily.
Doesn't that ll-look like enjoy
ment" he stammered

A Judge was recently at private

believe" he said, that 1t Is better for

err on the side of harshness rather
than on the side of lenity.

verer Judge, than nature, who SEN

peared on the SUFFICE in the Demo-
cratic household Of this, the Fifth
Congressional District, during the
past week. Who will be the Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress Is the
subject of concern. At one tune the
road seemed quite clear for the re-
nomination of the present congress
man, Smith, but the latter is a victim
to that unfortunate disease OF too
much tongue and in an indiscrect
moment criticised numerically,

going on for a candidate to oppose
him for the nomination. He has
been found. TIE new cavalier is

County, and brother-in-Iaw of Ex-
State Senator German. His ability
as statesman, it is said, is about on
par with that of Congressman
Smith, but he has full barrel and
