No one would shoot him. He was a
man and not entitled to so much ruth
less mercy. He might come to the
point of doing that for himself.
Black horror closed over his heaa
like bitter waters. He went doTn'
down.
Someone was shaking him with
kindly violence, speaking his name
repeatedly. Bruce recognized the
voice as that of Marshal Granados.
He had, then, capped his degrading
and womanish panic by swooning Ike

Of Rio Nabuco.
Yet, not dead. Fallen pride still
cried out to be clothed in the! sel4b-

Noel suspected his weak .corWardice,

not-they must not know. The day
had been hot; he could say he was

He opened his eyes. His head rest
ed on the desk among the scattered
papers, and Gil Granados' lean brown
face was bending e him, marked
with concern. The soldier gave an
ejaculation Of relief, when he saw the
patients eyes open, and putting his
arm around him, supported him to a
couch. In reply to Bruce's stammer-
ed explanation of dizziness, he check
ed him with reproaches for working
in the heat Of the day. He rang for
various beverages he thought proper
as restoratives. and administered
them himself with a deft use OF that
mutilated hand.
Slowly the healthy reaction of Mle

Bruce. David Noel was mot dead, but
alive, and probably would continue to
live. Was he not already a veteran Of
many peails in field and forum? And
there were other friends! Granados
might help him. Milo Valdez certainly
would try. Even if Milo, were lost
with Noel, the elder Valdez might
succor his sons associate. Why should
they send him back to Rio Naboco,

100 600, 900 gallons of beverage and non
beverage distilled spirits in storage in the
warehouses of this country, most of which
comes under the first-named classification.
OF this amount the Distillers Securities
Corporation holds about 40 per cent.
The liquor on hand is far beyond that
which would normally be sold in this
country during period Of twelve months.
The distilling intrcsts are, however, con-
templating free sale Of liquor only until
July /, when the war-period prohibition
becomes effective. This, it is understood,
has made it imperative that means be
taken to dispose of the surplus quantity

PINCHOT ON
 G. O. F. BOSSES

If any further evidence were need ed as to the predilections and af- filiaticns of the bosses in the Re- publican party than is supplied by their own records, Clifford Pinchot, progressive Republican and close friend of the late President Roose- before the Republican Presidential Club at Cambridge, Mass, Pinchot said of the G. o. P. leaders:
 The reactionaries are enemies of the people, for they are owned and controlled by the special interests which keep the cost of living high and continually drive it higher. Crane, Harding, Watson and their like, and Penrose, the flower of the flock, are the little brothers of the profteers. They believe in money first and human welfare. if at all. af- terward. Without such men as these the great monopolies could never have been formed.'
 At another point in his speech, Pinchot said:
 How far these men have misread the signs of the times is almost in sessions of the Republican National Committee in Chicago last March, the man most discussed as a candi- date for the Presidency was Jim Watson of Indiana, a candidate who would be little more acceptable to the average Republican voter than John D.
