Start of Bio Industry.

Upon the invention of machine for
sewing leather shoes, for which the
patent was issued to Gordon Mckay,
April %, 1862, was built the great boot
and shoe industry of the United States.
Mckay purchased, in 1859. Bake's sew
ing machine, which was one simply
using wax thread, with stationary
horn attached. While the machine in
tended for sewing boots and shoes op-
Grated well in parts of the work, 1t
failed in stitching the heels and toes.
Mckay changed the feeding apparatus
introduced automatic contrivances, and
finally was successful in adapting
1t to all kinds of work. After the
breaking out of the Civil war, Mckay
began to make army shoes, and In
1862 made contracts with g. firms for
their use. In 1876, 1900 were in op-
GRAFTON. These machines have been
used in foreign countries. and more
than 100,0O0,00O shoes are annually
made on them in the United States

my foreman. reported to me this morn
Ing that the rebels had crossed over
and had driven off half a dozen cows
for me-"
Again he spread out his hands and
lifted his shoulders.
"In the daylight 1t Is one thing
after dark it is another. l should be
glad to send some Of my vaQueros with
you, senor."
Still Dempton protested. There was
moon, his way ran across a wide
open level land, and the rebels were
not looking for complications with
Uncle Sam.
De 10 Guerra, too courteous q host
to insist, smiled gravely, rose and went
into the patio with the lawyer, direct
ing Pedro to have Mr. Dempton's horse
brought up from the stables.
Miss Teresa, / did not see her."
Dempton remembered to say from the
saddle. "She is well, l hopper"
"Very well, thank you, senor. shall
tell her that you inquired. And it was
kind of you to take this long ride to
tell me about the mistake in the WILL"
"Good night. Mr.. de la Guerra"
"Buenas noches, senOr."
And Lawyer Dempton, his horses
name and tail flying. was on his way
through the moonlight night, and the
old man, leaving Pedro to close the
door after him. had gone back to his
chair and wine and cigarettes.
"Los Americanos," he muttered when
he was alone again. "they are all alike.
You cannot trust them. That Demp-
ton has the eyes Of rat, the face OF

"Where is the senOrlta?
"In her rooms, think, senor."
"Bueno. Convey to her my affec-
tiOnate compliments, and tell her that
kI shall be for the half-hour adding a
certain note to my American memoirs.
After that l shall be pleased If she
will come to me.
Isl, senor." Swift and silent. Pedro
went upon his errand.
Senior don Antonio de Ia Guerra,
pushing the will to one side, drew
thick manuscript from the table
drawer, and, writing in a fine, schol-
arly hand, began to add certain highly
insulting commentaries to the chapter
dealing with the vitrolic description
of the character of Los Americanos.'
(The book. he planned to print In
Spain.)
Meantime the Senorita Teresa de la

was not in her room but upon her
little rose-twined balcony, and the

Abduction.

Abduction.
The hacienda where Antonio de la
Guerra had lived for the fifty-Odd
years of his exile from his beloved
Spain, where his granddaughter had
been born and reared. was one Of the
landmarks which linger on In stately
white walls under dark red tiles from
the time OF the Spanish occupation.
The old Spaniard was overiord Of
what had once been grant from his
grandfather's king, the boundaries
carelessly marked In leagues instead
of miles.
He bred cattle and fine horses, In

pire, to go on from year to year swell
ing his wealth.
The wide-yerandaed house with none
of it's walls less than three feet thick.
with great, spacious rooms, spread
out across a wide extent of the shaded
land among the olive and pear and
ther of Antonio de la Guerra there
had been fourteen rOoms-now there
were twenty. No less could suffice
for the master of the estate and his
cherished granddaughter.
There was the patio with its flower
ing garden and leaping fountain.
About 1t were the rooms, all on the
ground floor with the exception of the
three rooms added by the old man for
the use of la senOrita.
Here at the southeastern exposure
of the rambling dwelling, wide and
winding staircase had been constructed
to lead upward to a spacious landing.
Then came broad doors, a deep win
dow, and beyond the senorita's private
sitting room. Her bedroom was high
ceiled, with much ornate embellish-
ment after the Moorish fashion, and
a lavish display of gilt under the
domed roof.
Upon the landing couch where
each night Pedro lay across his mis-
tress' doorway.
And then the balcony.
Teresa must pick up her skirts dain-
tily to step out through the deep win
dows to it from her bedroom. and
once there she was all but lost behind
the bank of Towering roses, swallowed
by dim dusk through which the moon
had difficulty in filtering, Tapped in
the perfume of the flowers which clung
about the balcony in the warm June
night.
And from here, while her scholarly
grandfather annotated his remarks
concerning the hated Americana, Te-
resa leaned out, her beauty as soft and
delicate a thing as that of the rose
brushing her cheek, and talked with
one particular Americana.

and shook his head.

big table and bell tinlAed from be-
yond the door. 'Let me have the pa

Pedro brought pen and ink, retreat
ed upon another errand, and once
more returned, bringing with him two
Of the other servants about the great
adobe house to witness the signature.
The old man looked at the new will
carelessly and signed carelessly, ask
ing merely If the will were in all es-
Sentials the same as the original one.
The servants withdrew with their
masters thanks and loose silver, and

Dempton, his errand done, was al

from him few minutes ago.
But" cried De la Guerra, you are
not going back tonight, senior? Surely
you would not think Of putting my
hospitality so to shame! You must

DemptOn's eye had found his hat
and he speedily crossed the room to
take it up.

said hastily. 'But 1 must return to

OLD LAW ON STATUTE BOOKS
If British Judges Were Guided by 1t
There Would Be Some Confusion
in the "isIand Empire"

Many curious acts Of parliament
still remain on the statute book, re-
marks the London Daily Mail. Every
little while these appear in the courts,
but as the British judges decide cases
more by the public interest than by
the law they cause very little trouble.
Three acts have been quoted this
week. One referred to an act OF
George H.. which allowed the land
lord to charge tenant he wished
TO leave his premises double rent.
The plaintiff claimed. but lost mis-
case.
Another was claim by the admir-
aIty for freight on bullion carried
from South Africa on warship. This
claim was decided in favor OF the
bankers, who got their freight free
owing to an act that was passed In
1919 for the purpose of stopping the
abuse of the privilege of conveying
bullion in kings ships by tho COM
mercial community.
An act that is still enforced Is one
OF james l.. dated 1924, Scottish
statute. 1t reads:
IF any mine Of gold or silver be
found In any lords lands of the realm
and 1t may be proved that three half
pennies of silver may be fined out of
the pound Of lead. the lords of par
lament consent that such mine may
be the kings, as Is usual of other
realms"

the farewells over and done with, and
retreated to. the door which gave pas
sageway through the three-foot adobe
walls from the drawing room to the
patio.
De la Guerra looked at him with a
curious smile.
"You are incomprehensible, you
Americanos," he said softly. "You will
insist on riding dozen miles through
the dark when there is warm bed
and bright candle light inviting you
to stay. Your business must be ur-
gent, Mr.. Dempton, to take you out
tonight-alone. Your ride is not with
out danger. and
He put his hand again to the bell
cord.
"At least. If you insist, you must
allow me to send some of my va
queros with YOU"
"No, moi" cried Dempton, already at
the door. SIT is unnecessary. Mr.. de
la Guerra. There is no danger"
"As you will" Senor don Antonio
spread out his white hands and lifted
his shoulders slightly. "But you must
remember that we are only half mile
from the border, and that those ras-
cally Mexicans are a thieving. treach-

The title 'yeoman" Is of military
origin, and the yeomen were so styled
because, besides the weapons fit for
close engagement, they fought with
arrows and the bow, which was made
of "yew," tree that has more re-
peIling force and elasticity than any
other. After the Conquest the name
Of yeoman, as applied to their original
office in war, was changed to that of
