 "Tll be able to ride and take care of myself in a day or two" went on Duane. "Then I'll go-rd like to talk to you about Jennie"
 "She's welcome to home here with us"
 'Thank you, Andrews. You're q kind man. But I want Jennie to get farther away from the Rio Grande. She'd never be safe here.'
 "All right, Duane. Whatever you think best. I reckon now you'd better go north an strike for Shelbyvflle. I'll tell Jennie the names of men who'll help her. You needn't ride into town at al"
 At sunset two days later Duane and Jennie mounted their horses and said good-by to the raneher and his wife. Andrews would not listen to Duane's thanks.
 T tell you I'm beholden to you yet" he declared.
 Well. what can do for you!" asked Duane. "I may come along here again some day"
 Get down an come in, then, or you're no friend of mine An good luck to you both!"
 Duane and Jennie trottcd away into the gathering twilight. The sky was overcast with heavy clouds there was no air moving; the heat and oppres- sion threatened storm. By and by Duane could not see rod in front of himy though his horse had no difficulty in keeping to the road. To his an- noyance, however fine, misty rain set in. Jennie was not well dressed for wet weather; and, for that matter neither was he. His coat, which in that dry warm climate he seldom needed, was tied behind his saddle, and he put it on Jennie The night passed quickly despite the discomfort and soon gray, dismal, rainy dawn greeted the travellers.
 Jennie insisted that he find some shelter where a fire could be built to dry his clothes. He was not in a fit condition to risk catching cold. In fact, Duane's teeth were chattering. To find a shelter in that barren waste seemed futile task. Quite unex- pectedly, however they happened upon deserted adobe cabin situated little off the road. Not only did it prove to have dry interior, but also there was flrewood. Water was available in pools everywhere; however, there was no grass for the horses.
 X good fire and hot food and drink changed the aspect of their condition as far as comfort went. Jennie slept while Duane watched The saving of this girl meant more to him than any task he had ever as- sumed.
 As he looked down upon her, a siiEht, Siender glfi Wlth DedraSgleu dress and disheyeied hair, her face, pale and quiet little stern in sleep. and her long dark lashes lying on her cheek, he seemed to see her fragility, her prettiness, her femininity as never before. But for him she might at that very moment have been broken, ruined girl lying back in that cabin of the Blands. The fact gave him a feel ing of his importance in this shifting of her destiny. She was unharmed, still young; she would forget and be happy; she would live to be good wife and mother. Somehow the thought swelled his heart His net, death-dealing as 1t had been, was

"sIaek Death" eubonie p,aoue7
Some historian-nhysicians haxe .s

Some historian-physicians have sat isfied themselves, and many other men who have followed their line of argu- ment, that the "black death," which swept England and other countries, was what the world now knows to be bubOnic plague, a disease that has been traced to rats and the fieas that infest rats. It was only a few years ago that the great discovery was made that there is association between bu- bonic plague, rats and rat fleas. It has been shown that the commonest rat fleas in all tropical and subtropicai countries infest man. and if they should have fed upon a plague, ,infcsteH rat and subsequently, bite man, their bites communicate bubonic plague.- Washington Star.

 "Duane, you've killed him '' cried Kate Bland, huskily. q knew you'd have toi"
 She staggered against the wall. her eyes dilating, her strong hands clench- ing, her face slowly whitening. She appeared shocked, half stunned, but showed no grief.
 Jennie - called Duane, sharply. Come out. Hurry"
 She came out with uneven steps, seeing only him, and she stumbled over Bland's body. Duane caught her arm swung her behind him. He feared the woman when she realized how she had been duped. His action was protec- tive, and his movement toward the door equally as significant.
 "Duane v cried Mrs. Bland It was no time to talk. Duane edged on, keeping Jennie behind him. At that moment there was a pounding of iron-shod hoofs out in the lane. Kate Bland bounded to the door. When she turned back her amaZrment was changing to realization.

NEWSPAPER EXPENSE.

The Kansas City Star says that
newspapers generally have assumed
that the public was not interested in
their business arrangements. Such
an unwOnted situation has arisen.
however, in connection with the ad-
vance in the cost of print paper
and, for the matter, of practically
everything that enters into newspa-
per production-that newspapers all
over the country are being compelled
to make readjustment of advertising
and subscription rates to meet the
new conditions.
White paper is the chief item of
expense in newspapers of general
circulation and in the last few
months its price has been advanced
twenty per cent, fifty per cent, and
even in some cases 100 per cent. For
metropolitan newspapers this means
an added cost of production of sew
eral hundred thousand dollars year.
The advance in other materials,
while not so great, is very material,
and increases the gravity of the prob
lem.
The magazines are feeling the same
pressure. The August issue of The
Worlds Work, for instance, devotes
considerable space to the paper sit
uation, while Life, The Independent
and other periodicals have explained
to their readers the necessity of
changes in their circulation schemes
because of the emergency.
, Newspapers and magazines alike
are doing their best to tide over the
situation with no radical changes. It
is only prudent, however, to recog-
nize the fact that if the advances of
the last few months continue-as
they seem likely to-the entire peri
odical business will have to be re-
adjusted,

Fairmont business men have taken
a new method of getting money from
people who refuse to pay their bills.
This weeks issue of the Martin
County Independent contains a three
column advertisement signed by the
Fairmont Business Mems association
in which appear the names of all DEL
inquent customers of the business
men represented by the association.
These delinquent accounts are adver-
tised for sale and bids are asked. The
amount of the bills run from SIS cents
to $102.63 and the merchants are
of the opinion that publicity will
bring the desired results.

New York is confronted with
strike of all street railway employees.
The trouble, which was composed
short time ago, has again broken out

by President Wilson's course toward
the railway employees, insist now that
their demands must be granted in
full and they are attempting to tie
up all the transportation OF that city.

tated the suffragists Of the state on the
hopeful outlook in the United States
and in Wisconsin. She congratulated
them on the fact that every political
party had put suffrage plank in their
platform. Miss Stearns also commend
ed Mr.. Hughes for his stand on the
federal amendment, and stated that she
hoped that President Wilson would also
be broadminded enough to take in the
situation so that he would get away
from the States rights ideas" and
come out for the national amendment.
Miss Stearns reviewed the situation
in Wisconsin and showed how it would
be possible to get suffrage at an early
day if either of the political parties
stood by their platforms, irrespective
of the national amendment
The prominence Of woman s suffrage

which he has the following to say re-

that question was before the people Of
Wisconsin at a state election. In my
Judgment women are, as matter of
justice and right, entitled to vote in a
government of the people, by the peo-

woman owning property ought to be
permitted to vote on the question of
how much her property is to be taxed

that every out of town guest will re-
turn to his or her home a booster for
Kenosha.
The members of the two entertain
ment committees were actively engaged
throughout the evening in introducing
the guests and aiding in every way pos
sible to make the party the success it
proved to be. As the event was strictly
invitationaL and none but those con-
nected with the association were al
lowed in the hail. the dancers enjoyed
themselves without restraint, and the
affair proved to be, as the committee
desired it, family gathering.
The ball opened at $3.50 'clock and
the merrymaking continued until o.
clock this morning. Becker IS ten-piece
orchestra was in attendance to furnish
the latest dance music, which was en-
joyed to the full by the 400 guests.
The hall had been decorated for the
occasion, potted ferns being used upon
the platform, while large American
flag formed its background. Prominent
among the decorations of the hall was
a large basket of Ascension lilies and
lavender straw flowers, presented to the
women of the entertainment committee
by the visiting women.
The lovers of sweets had an oppor-
tunity to indulge their appetites as
many boxes of candy, left from the
merchants picnic last week, were sold
during the evening. The table was in
charge of Mrs. Leo Reuschlein.

laration in the Republican platform in
favor of woman suffrage. He declared
that a consideration of our economic
conditions and tendencies in this coun-
try, and of the position of women in so
many gainful occupations, had led him
to believe that the granting of suffrage
to women is inevitable. I also think
it to be inevitable, and that, though
opposition may delay, it cannot defeat

pared for a formal ball, the party was
made as informal as possible. Practi-
cally all of the men wore shirtWaists,
while the attractive costuming of the
women ranged from sport suits to flmy
ball gowns of the latest mode. The
large screened veranda adjoining the
ballroom was much sought after thru
out the evening. Here those who did
not dance enjoyed the music by the
orchestra and conversed together, while
the dancers focked out to enjoy the
cool air between dances.
At about 1880 O'Clock an elaborate
supper was served on the lower veran-
da. O. G. Martin was the caterer, and
the menu was an elaborate one. The
tables were decorated with potted ferns
and vases of cut flowers.
Prominent guests at the party were
Charles Pfennig, mayor of Kenosha,
and r. w. Riegelman, president OF the
state association. All of the represen-
tative merchants of the city with their
families were in attendance, while the
young women clerks We're also invited
