and stepped to her side. Are Won
still of the same mind?'' he asked her.
She nodded her head.
Then the padre opened his book and
requested Liberty and Manuel to kneel
before the shrine.
Therese, who had heard of the in
tended marriage, rushed out of the
house and learned that the wedding
party were on their way to the chapel.
Wrapping her shawl closely about her
head she hurried after them. But
Pedro, who of late had spent most of
his time guarding the Tilted girl, dis
covered her absence and followed
her
upon her arrival at the chapel
Therese saw the lights on the altar,
and in the dim reflection the kneeling
couple. Then she threw open the gate
and was about to rush into the chapel
when two strong arms closed around
her. She fought madly to free herself
but the grip frightened. Turning, she
looked into the face of Pedro.
The ceremony completed, the padre
started to put out the candles as Man
uel took Liberty by the arm and
walked slowly out. AS they reached
the chapel yard Therese, whom Pedro
was trying to urge away, took one look
at the couple and then tainted.
After Manuel and Liberty had de-
parted from the chapel Pancho took
the Majors notes from his pocket and
offered them to the Major, who made
no move, but stood staring at the man
who had brought about this unhappy
affair. Then, when the Major refused
to take them, he tore them up and
threw them on the floor.
Then they silently left the place.
The Major went at once to Join Rut-
ledge and the rangers, who had been
ordered to meet Colonel Dalton's
troops, which had started out to cross
the border and capture the Mexicans
responsible for the attack on Discov-
cry.
Earlier in the day the colonel, who
was encamped with his troops near
the Horton estate, had received the
following message from Washington:
Colonel Dalton,
Commanding Troops D & X Calvary.

You are hereby ordered to move troops

"Very WELL" he said and with this
he began pounding his weight against
the door.
AS Liberty heard him she ran to
her dresser and, opening one of the
drawers, took from 1t a long, sharp
pointed knife and placed it in her
bodice. Then she waited.
1t was an old-fashioned door, made
of wood and dry with age, with the
result that it didn't require much la
Dor on Manuels part to force it open.
Her obstinacy aroused his quick Mex
lean temper and as the door flew open
he rushed in, trembling with rage.

though he would clasp her in his

Earthquake Caused Chances.

An effect Of the Nevada earthquake

former amount In the flow of streams

part of the state. Observers have pro-
bounced this earthquake more violent

In San Francisco in 1906, but In the
thinly settled region the damage was
small. Beginning October 2, there
were more than 800 shocks within
three months. The most notable mark
of the disturbance has been left on the
east side of Pleasant alley, where the

At that moment Pancho, who had
left the room when Liberty entered,
returned, and smiled with contentment
as he glanced at them both. He knew
he had won, and as Liberty turned
from the Major and started to leave
her prospective father-in-law started
toward her with outstretched hands.

But she dashed by him and ran to

partner. 81 knew 1t would come out

The Major was lighting a cigar.
When he had finished he walked up to
Pancho and, glaring into the cunning
eyes of the Mexican, said:

or not, but let me tell you something.

Bent upon finding If there was any,
thing wrong with his ward, the Major
hurriedly left the room and went at
once to Liberty's bedroom. He paused
a moment outside and listened. Some
body was sobbing within. Without
waiting to knock, he opened the door
and stepped inside.
1t was Liberty. AS soon as he en-
tered she raised herself and brushed
the tears from her eyes.
What makes you so sad, my little

over to her.

SUMS RAYS CARESS TEMPLE
Tinoe Of Red Upon Mighty Columns Of
Baalbek May Be Explained
In Two Ways.

At Baalbek man has truly achieved
the cyclopean. Here the excavators
have unearthed complete set Of
ruins. Here lying guides get tourists
to swallow bigger stories than In any
place l know Of, says a writer In the
Christian Herald.
Here the towering columns Of the
temple Of the sun watch the orb Of day
descend behind the Lebanon, after the
lifting shadows have engulfed the
smaller temple Of Bacchus. And the
sun, In departing, leaves his kiss upon
the stately colonnade In a clearly seen
dnge OF red.
There are prosaic folk who say that
this ID caused by iron In the rock. That
may do as an explanation to those
who believe In the age Of iron, but this
mighty temple does not belong to the
present age Of machinery.
1t Is more likely that the red tinge
In the rock Is the stain of blood-the
blood Of men who died In erecting this
everlasting monument. Perhaps it is
as well that the blood Of the labor
ers should show on the monument of
the conqueror who built this temple to
an unknown god.
Men who are killed In mines and
dangerous occupations today have no
such mighty reminders of their toll as
the blush which shows on the graceful
columns of Baalbek when the setting
sun slowly settles behind the long line
of lofty Lebanon.

LIVING AEROPLANES.
Wherein Birds Differ From Flying Ma.
chimes Mrde by Man.

1t would be a mistake to suppose
that the birds wings enable 1t to fly.
If wings spelled flying any of us could
attach a pair and soar into the air.
The hollow bones of the birds make
light bodies, but they axe attached to
a rigid backbone. which forms the
main feature of the birds body. This
gives the central flrmness, and the
muscles do the rest. The wings bal
ance their owners, and the tail acts
as rudder for steering. Often enough
the bird seems to use its tail as sort
of brake.
1t Is interesting to compare the bird
with the product of mans sllill-the
aeroplane. To begin with, there is no
aeroplane made which copies the up
and down motion Of the birds wings,
all our machines having fixed wings
or planes.
But naturally man tried to copy the
living fiers around him. He made
wings Of feathers, etc, connected them
with his shoulders and legs and found
that his muscles could not raise him
