They had faced death too nearly for
any hesitation now. She knew he
loved her, and knew that he had
saved her at the imminent risk of his
own life. There had been swift yet
eternal moments when Ii seemed that

would follow the downward rush Of
the gusset plate. Now as he strained
her to him, she lifted her face to him,
glad that she was tall enough for him
to kiss her with so slight bend Of
the head.
There, under the great trusses Of
steel, amid the huge, gaunt, massive
evidences Of the power of the might,
Of the mastery Of man, two hearts
spoke to each other in the silence, and
told the story that was old before the
ore into the first bit Of iron, before
Tubal Cain ever smote the anvil; the
story Of love that began with creation,
that will outlast all the iron in all the
hills of the earth-that Is as eternal
as 1t is divine!
After that wild embrace, that first
rapturous meeting of lips, he released
her slightly, though he still held her
closely and she was quite content.
"Pm quite calm now" he began,
that is, l am as composed as any man
could be who is holding you in his
arms. But If it had not been for me,
you would never have been in danger.
1t was my fault. l should have made

"But If l had not been in danger l
might not now be here in your arms.
And if l were not here" she went on
swiftly, too happy in her love to be
mindful of anything else, II certainly
would not be doing-this."
And of her own motion she kissed
him in the moonlight.
"And if you were not doing this

you"
"You haven't told NE anything-in
words" she answered, fain to hear
from his lips what she well knew from
the beating Of his heart.
Its not too late then to tell you
that love you, that l am yours. To
give myself to you seems to be the
highest possibility in life, If you will

The body of Hans Freilicli, one OF

men were captured yesterday on the
Mexican side of the river. The fifth
is still missing, but is believed to
have been drowned in attempting to

The prisoners are said to have

that three men, believed to have beer

THE WAR CONGRESS.

The session of Congress which has
just adjourned had to adjust eondi.
tons 20 the momentous period in
our national life, and the task was
well done. With few exceptions
members of both houses ceased to
play politics, discarded the mantle
OF personal ambitions, and worked
for the national good.
1t is not necessary to summarize
the accomplishments OF the Con.
gress during the last few months.

Some mistakes may nave been
made by the last Congress, for, il
the legislation had all been perfect,
the members who contributed to the

perfect human beings. and there
are no sucl persons.
The rank and file of the nation
owe their thanks to members of both
Senate and House, who, when the
great occasion arose, in most in
