voices. never varying in its dreary
monotone. A terrible sound it was
sorrowful. dirgelike Instinctively Lu-
ellie lifted her eyes to those Of the
chief, her finger tips brushing against
his bare forearm sympathetically.
swift gieam crossed his stern face
At few sharp words the party dis
banded disappearing In the huts.
Come with me-" said the chief. And.
although she did not understand the
words. she followed his swift stride
toward the great hut from which the
sound came.
The interior Of the hut was crowded
with women. the atmosphere so close
as to fairly drive her back toward the
tiny door through which che had en-
tered. And to the ears OF the girl,
dominating the dirgelike wall, came a
simple note-the crying Of a child.
Impuisively she brushed through the
women. STOPPING over the pallet of
rushes where the patient lay. Even
with the emaciation which her illness
had caused, despite the blaze of delir-
ium in the -widened eyes, the black
splotches Of fever In the cheeks, Lu-
ellie would have known the girl for
the daughter Of the old man.
By signs she made it clear to the old
man that the hut must be cleared be-
fore anything could be done to assist
his daughter. Gradually it dawned
upon her that the crowding of the hut
was custom of his people, which re-
CURED vast faith to go against She
watched him eagerly, her very heart
crying out for the sick child. whose
last chance for recovery was being
stolen by this crowd of women using
up all the oxygen In the room when ii
was the most necessary thing for her
recovery.
The chief made his decision quickly.
He oVerruled the women's protests and
drove them from the hut, leaving the
opening wide.
Lucille opened her mouth. LAYING her
throat with the intoxicating air that
drove out the odors the congestion had
left behind. Then she turned hev at
tention to the child.
Day and night Lucille administered
to the girl, now encouraged at dimt-
mutton Of the fever, now downcast at
discouragfng symptoms. All she had
to work with were the natural weapons
which nature leaves to the hands of
the sensible nurse. Where the patient
had been fed meat, Lucille made q
broth; where witch doctors Lad sttmu-
lated weakened heart ana system,
she soothed And so much depended
upon the little brown girl If she re-
covered then Lucille knew she would
have made no mean friend in the grim
chief who called daily to watch bis
daughter for a few moments, then,
without a word, would disappear. And
friends meant so much to her now. It
was such a task she had laid out for
herself, the way was so stormy and
beset with thorns. But she could not
Lose. She mlss get back to Manila and
clear her sweetheart OF the charge
against him.
1t was on the eighth day she was
| awakened from one Of the maps she
had accustomed herself to taking, by
the girls turning on her pallet and re
garding her out of eyes that held the
light of sanity In lieu Of the deltrium

pressed satisfaction with the situation
after he had received Governor Am.

in close touch with the President that
Wilson was greatly pleased with what
had been done after he had been In

work Of the Colorado Legislature. and
that he hoped the state would assume

Washington.-President Wilson Sat
urday made It clear that Colorado
must quickly solve its own difficulties
growing out Of the strike situation, and
that the federal troops now on duty
there would be withdrawn n soon ~
possible.
He telegraphed Governor Ammons
telling him the state Legislature
should not adjourn without taking
steps to control the situation. and re-
ceived 4 reply from the governor say
ing everything possible was being
done

officials close to the President, that he
does not plan to withdraw the federal
troops II anarchy is to break out again

Legislature adjourning and leaving

Members Of the Colorado delegation
In Congress were alarmed by the
Presidents telegram to Governor Am
mons. and said anarchy would reign
again II the troops were taken away
before the strike was settled. They as
serted that although orders for the
disarming Of the contending factions
had been issued, only a small proper
tion OF the arms have been turned in,
and that practically an armed truce ex'
lists at present.
The President will be reasonable
about the question. 1t was said at the
White House. but believes that under
the constitution he has no right to
use the federal troops in Colorado
when the Legislature has chance to
act. It was recalled that when he
sent the troops to Colorado he made Il
clear the act was only temporary.

Fourth In Russia

sW DON'T care If he is a grand duke!
He has spoiled my Fourth Of

And Jack Langdon shook his
small brown fist after the ~retreating
carriage of his exceIlency the governor
of o.
Jack Langdon's father was one OF
the growing number of Americans who
have taken up business In Russia. He
owned the ironworks of O. and vas
respected by both foreigners and ma
tives throughout the province governed
by the Grand Duke Alexis Alexandra
witch. Relying on this respect and the
favor with which the authorities re-
garded him. Mr.. Langdon had ventured
to waylay the grand duke on n of
his morning drives for the purpose Of
asking certain privileges. The reply
of the governor was polite. but none
the less decided. He said: you ask,
my dear NJ. Langdon. that your young
son be permitted to celebrate your ma
tional holiday. the Fourth of July. by
the setting off of certain toy expl0-
sIves. l regret to have to inform you
that such methods OF jubilation. while
common in America. could not be al
lowed In Russia. Two years ago your
countryman. M. Moreland Of the
Vralsk mills, requested a like favor
and was reluctantly refused. The fact
Is that our laws strictly forbid the use
of explosives in any shape. My good
cousin, the late car. enacted the law
Immediately after his father had been
slain by the nihilists. Firecrackers. In
themselves harmless. would give the
nihilists a chance to introduce dyna-
mite"
"But surely" protested Mr.. Lang

of the birth of a friendly nation
The grand duke raised his hand
deprecatingly.
II cannot help it" he said. but such
is the law. Your son will have to
forego his cannon crackers. I fear, this
Fourth of July"
And then. signaling to his outriders,
the governor drove on. leaving Mr..
Langdon rather annoyed and little
Jack very angry indeed.
He rambled out to the woods, scold-
ing at the czar as he went. On the
way he met Uncle Petronchka, a peas
ant with whom he had scraped ac-
quaintance and who, instead Of his
usual friendly manner. passed him
with a surly nod.
Jacks curiosity was aroused, and
for the nonce he forgot all about the
governors refusal Of his petition. At
this point the road took a sort of long
loop, so as to touch at a certain neigh
