There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced II a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly falling to cure with local
treatment, pronounced 1t incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be consti-
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh

 Australian FIylnc Fox.

More enterprising travellers have at various times attempted to bring in as . curiosity the Australian flying fox. Unknown in this country. this overgrown bat. which at It's largest measures more than five feet across the tips of it's wings, is one of the great pests of Australia. In their camps in the dense scrub of gullies and swamps. they may be seen by the thousands, crowded so thickly on the trees that branches are frequently broken by their weight. Their nightly raids in search of food cover consider able distances and they are especially partial to figs. bananas. peaches and other soft fruit. Various expedients have been tried to protect the orchards, but hitherto these have proved more expensive than success full. On one occasion hundreds of thousands of foxes were shot at an expense to the government of New South Wales for powder and shot Of 30 cents each A little later whole sale destruction by means of dyna- mite and other explosives was at' tempted The foxes avoided the trees that had been so carefully charged. and the explosives did no harm.

CHAPTER xxx.

In a country where witnesses to crime are imprisoned along with the principals and kept more or less in definitely in jail, man thinks twice before he reports to the police.
 With four dead Mexicans to the Yaqui's account, and Del Key in charge of the district, Hooker followed his second thought-he said nothing. and took his chances on being arrest ed for murder Until far into the night Amigo busted himself along the hill side, and when the sun rose not a sign remained to tell the story of the fight.
 Men, horses, saddles and guns-all had disappeared. And, after packing a little food in a sack, Amigo disap- ise of return.
 The sun rose round and hot. the same as usual; the south wind came up and blew into bellying mass of clouds, which lashed back with the ac- customed rain; and when all the earth was washed clean and fresh the last trace of the struggle was gone. Only by the burns on his hands was Hooker aware of the fight and of the treachery which had reared it's head against him like a snake which has been warmed' and fed.
 Nowhere but in Mexico. where Ue low pelado classes have made such deeds subtlety, could the man be found to dissimulate like that false assassin-in-chief. To pause suddenly In protracted speech, swing over and pick up a gun. and halt his victim for the shooting by the preparatory click of the lock-that indeed called for a brand of cunning rarely found in tho, United States.
 There was one thing about the affair that vaguely haunted Hooker-why was it that man so cunning as that had failed to load his gun? Twice, and with everything in his favor, he had raised his rife to Gres and both times

MUCH READY CASH ON HAND
Bureau Drawer and Sent to Bank for Like Amount.

Among the eccentricities of the rich, the passion for always possess ing enormous sums of ready cash Is surely one of the most extraordinary. A former Lord Dysart one day asked companion-nurse to go to town and get a check cashed for him at the Bank of England. When she was ready to start the old peer sat down and wrote out check for G100,000. and told her to be sure and see that she got one note for the whole amount
 The check was duly presented. and the bank, having satisfied themselves as to the nurses authority for making such a request. suggested that a clerk should accompany her and hand the E100000 note in person to his lord ship. After having done so the clerk told the peer that only three such notes were in existence. One" he I have just handed to your lordship. and the third, which some time ago disappeared from circulation, we have never been able to trace" Perhaps I can help you" said Lord Dysart, and, going to bureau, he unlocked a drawer and took out the missing f100,000 note, which had been lying there for years.
 MT. Ralph Nevill, who tells the story in Fancies, Fashions and Pads, also mentions A relative of his who died in the forties of the last century, and who had similar mania for keeping great sums of money at home. He had a love for putting banknotes in books, and sum amounting to little short of E30,000 was extracted from between the leaves of his library by his executors.

non. As for the federals. they occu- pied the country to the east and at tempted few sallies, but as they had nothing but their rifles, the agtil- lery drove them back
 "Then, as the battle ceased. the rebels began to celebrate their vic tory. They broke into the closed eau tinas, disobeying their officers and be- ginning the loot of the town. and while half of their number were drunk the federals, being informed of their condition. suddenly advanced upon them. with the Yaquis far in the lead
 They did not shoot, those Yaquis: but, dragging their guns behind them, they crept up through the bushes and dug pits quite close to the lines. Then, when the rebels discovered them and manned their guns, she Yaquis shot down the gunners.
 Growing bolder, they crept farther
 to the front-tbe rebels became tlisor- gafiized. tbeir men became mutinous--- ar,i at last, when they saw they would 1 surely be taken. the leaders buried l two tons of dynamite in the trenches by the bullring and set time-fuse, to explode when tho Yaquis arrived
 The word spread through the town like wildire-all sthe people. all the soldiers fled every which way 10 es- cape-and then, when the worst was expected to happen. the dynamite failed to explode and the Yaquis rushed the trenches at sundown'' 
 Did those Ysquis know about the dynamite" ?" innired Bud.
 Know? ?h repeated Don Juan. waving the thought away. mot wordl Their commanders kept it from them, even after they discovered the mine. And now the Indians are making boasts: they are drunk with the thought of their valor and claim that the rebels fled from them alone.
 "The roadmaster came into town this morning on a velocipede and said that the Yaquis are insufferable think ing that it was their renown as fight CTS and not the news of the dynamite that drove all the soldiers from town.
 However Agua Negra is once more in the hands of the government; the track is clear and most of the bridges repaired: so why quarrel with the Yaquis? While they are. of course, nothing but Indians. they serve their purpose in battle.
 Well I guess yes!" responded Bud warmly. Serve their purpose eh? Where were these Mexican soldiers and them Spanish officers when the Yaqus were taking the town? And that was just like a dog goned Mexi- can-setting that time-fuse and then not having it go off. More'n likely the poor yap that fired it was so scairt he couldn't hold match-probably never lit it, jest dropped the match and run. They're a bum bunch, If you want to know what l think. I'd rather have Yaqui than hundred of 'em!"
 "A hundred of whom ?' inquired a cool voice behind him, and looking up Hooker saw the beautiful Graeia gag ng out at him through the screen door.

and when Hooker leaped to his feet the Mexican scrambled up and rushed madly for the creek
 But, though Bud was free, the bat. tle had turned against him, for in the brief interval of his fight the other two Mexicans had run for their guns. The instant he rose they covered him. Their chief, who by some miracle had escaped Buds shot, gave a shout for them to halt Cheated of his victim at the first he was claiming the right to kill.
 AS Hooker stood hlinded by the smoke and ashes the fellow took de- liberate aim and once more his rife snapped. Then, as the other Mexi- cans stood agape, surprised at the failure of the shot the cannonlike whang of Mauser rent the air and the leader crumpled down in a heap.
 An instant later a shrill yell rose from up the canyon and. as the two Mexicans started and stared, Amigo came dashing in upon them, splitting pistol in one hand and his terrible "wood-ehopping" knife brandshed high in the other.
 In the dusk his eyes and teeth gleamed white. his black hair seemed to bristle with fury, and the glint of his long knife made a light as he vaulted over the last rock and went plunging on their track For, at the first glance at this huge, pursuing fig ure. the two Mexicans had turned and bolted like rabbits, and now, as the Yaqui whirled in after them. Bud could hear them squealing and scrambling as he hunted them down among the rocks.
 It was grim work, too, even for his stomach. but Hooker let the Indian fol- low his nature. When Amigo came back from his hunting there was no need to ask questions. His eyes shone so terribly that Hooker said nothing, but set about cleaning up camp.
 After he had washed the ashes from his eyes, and when the fury had van ished from Amigos face, they went as by common consent and gaZed at the body of the chief of the desperadoes. Even in death his face seemed strange 1y familiar, but as Hooker stood gag ing at him the Yaqui picked up his gun.
 Look" he said. and pointed to a bullet-splash where, as the Mexican held the gun across his breast. Buds pistol shot had nattened harrnIessly against the lock. It was that which had saved the Mexican chief from in- stant death, and the jar of the shot had doubtless broken the rife and saved Bud, in turn, from the second shot
 All this was in the Yaqui's eye as he carefully tested the action; but, when he threw down the lever, cartridge rose up from the magazine and glided smoothly into the breech. With rife full of cartridges the ignorant Mexican had been snapping on an empty cham Der, not knowing enough to jack up a shell!
 For a moment Amigo stared at the gun and the man, and his mouth drew down with contempt
 "Ha! Pendejoi" he grunted, and kicked the corpse with his foot.
 But if the Mexican had been fool, he. had paid the price, for the second time he snapped his gun Amico had shot him through and through.

 a erin 5ing and spacious politeness We have come far and the trail is long. so we will eat. The times are hard for poor men now-this traitor, Madero, has made us all hungry It is by him that we poor working men are driven to insurrection-but we know that the Americans are our friends Yes, senor, will take some of your beans, and thank you
 He filled a plate as he spoke and lifted a biscuit from the oven, con- tinuing with his false batter while the others fell to in silence.
 Perhaps you have heard, senor," he went on, the saying which is in the land: Mucho trabajo, paco dinero; no hay frijoles, viva Madero. Much work, little money; no beans, long live Madero.l
 That, in truth, is no jest to the Mexican people. This man has be- trayed us all, he has ruined the coun- try and set brother against brother. And now, while we starve because the mines are shut down, he gathers his family about him in the city and lives fat on the money he has stolen"
 He ran on in this style, after the fashion of the revoltosos, and by the very commonplace of his fulminations Bud was thrown completely off his guard. That was the way they all talked, these worthless bandit-beggars that and telling how they loved the Americanos-and then, if they got a chance, they would stick a knife in your back.
 He listened to the big man with a polite toleration. being careful not to turn his back, and ate a few bites as he waited, but though it was coming dusk the Mexicans were in no hurry to depart. Perhaps they hoped to stop for the night and get him in his sleep. Still they fingered on, the leader sit ting on a log and continuing his harangue.
 Then, in the middle of a sentence, and while Bud was bending over the fire. the Mexican stopped short and leaned to one side A tense silence fell, and Hooker was walked from his trance by the warning click of a gun lock. Suddenly his mind came back to his guests. and he ducked like a flash. but even as he went down he heard the hammer clack!
 The gun had snapped!
 Instantly Rockers hand leaped to his pistol and he fired from the hip pointblank at the would-be murderer. With yell to the others, one of the Mexicans sprang on him from behind and tried to bear him down They struggled for moment while Bud shot blindly with his pistol and went down fighting.
 Bud was giant compared to the stunted Mexicans, aud he threw them about like dogs that hang on to bear. With man in each hand he rose to his feet, crushing them down beneath him: then, in despair of shaking off his rider. he staggered few steps and hurled himself over backward into the fire.
 A yell of agony followed their fall and. as the live coals bit through the Mexican's thin shirt, he fought like a cat to get free. Rocks, pots and ket-
