MARTIN, a photographer, who, on a
motor trip. tries TO kiss her.
With a little half-smfle Sally
waited for the outcome OF the strug-
gle in the young photographer. She
looked confident. but in reality she
was anxious. Martin was - obvi-
ously torn between the gross and
shabby In him and the desire for
nicer things.
She felt the pressure OF his arm

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Clash Of Race.

The Clash Of Race.
In Kings house at Spanish Town
the governor was troubled. All his
plans and prophecies had come to
naught. He had been convinced there
would be no rebellion Of the Maroons,
and he was equally sure that his ca
reer would be made hugely successful
by marriage with Sheila Lyn-but
the Maroons had revOlted, the mar
rage was not settled!
Messages had been coming from the
provost marshal general OF reports
from the counties Of Middlesex and
Cornwall. that the Maro0ns were raw
aging everywhere and that bands Of
slaves had Joined them with serious
disasters to the plantation people.
Planters, their wives and children had
been murdered, and In some districts

will organize the business like q
master. We haven't forgotten his fight
for the navy on the Ariadne. Didn't
the admiral tell the story at the din
ner we gave him Of how this ex-con-
vict and mutineer, by sheer genius,
broke the power of the French at the
critical moment and saved our fleet,
though it was only three-fourths that
of the Freneh?"
"Go on with your tale Of the
hounds" said Lord Mallow.
"YOur honor, as the hounds went
away with Michael Clones there was
greater applause than have ever
seen in the island except when
Rodney defeated De Grasse. Imagine
a little sloop in the wash of the seas
and the buccaneers piling down on
him.. and no chance of escape, and
then great British battleship ap-
pearing, and the situation saved
that was how we were placed here
till the hounds arrived. Your honor,
this mornings, this early mornings,
exit Of the hounds was like process
sion Of veterans to Walhalla. There
was the sun breaking over the tops
Of the hill, crimsonish, grayish,
opaline touch Of soft sprays or mists
breaking away from the onset of the
sunrise; and all the trees with night
lips wet sucking I'm the sun and
drinking up the light like an over
seer at a Christmas breakfast; and
you know what that is.
"Then, suddenly. the sharp sound OF
a long whip and a voice calling, and
there rises out of the landing place the
procession-the sixty dogs in three
wagons. their ten drivers with their
whips, but keeping order by the sound
Of their voices, low, soft and peculiar,
and then the horses starting into a
quick trot which presently would be-
come a canter-and the hounds were
off to Salem! There could be no fear
with the hounds let loose to do the
hunting"
"But suppose that when they get to
Salem their owner is no more"
The Custos laughed. Him, your
honor-him no moreI Isn't he the
man of whom the black folk say,
Lucky buckra-mornlng lucky new
comerv If that's his reputation, and
the coming of his hounds just when
the island most needed them is GOOD
proof Of it, do you think he'll be killed
by lot of dirty Maroons! All, Cal
houn's a man with the luck Of the
devil, your honor! He has the pull
as sure as heavens above he'll make
success. II you command your staff
to have this posted as a proclamation
throughout the island, 1t will do as
much good as q thousand soldiers. 1t
will stop the slaves from revolving; 1t
will squelch the Maroons, and I'm GER
tain sure Calhoun will have MaroOns
ready to fight for US, not against US,
before this thing Is over. tell you,
your honor, it means the way out
that's what 1t means. So, II you'll. give
me your order, keeping copy OF 1t
for the provost-marshal, I'll see It's
delivered to Dyck Calhoun before
neutrality-suspicious. by midnight. It's
not more than a six hours journey In
the ordinary way"
At that moment an aide-de-camp en-
tered, and with solemn face presented
to the governor the last report from

MEXICO LIKED
by MEVV0WTES
LEARNING TO BUILD ADOBE
HOMES-TROUBL WITH MEN
MExICANS is DENIED.

Ell Paso, Texas, June I4-Mennon-
ties from Canada who settled two
months ago in Chihuahua, Mex, are
learning to build and occupy adobe
dwellings of Mexican pattern Con
trary to pessimistic and sensational
reports, the colonists are getting on
well with the Mexicans and are well
pleased with the country, according
to score of Americans, Canadians
and Mexieans, and Mennonites who
have been on the spot. The latter
say that already the colonists have
transformed the valley of San An
tonic from barren landscape into a
place of stirring villages, spacious
barns. gardens and trees. The Men
nonites occupy 200, 900 acres.
Lurid stories stating that the pill
grims from Canada have FALLEN
among thieves" are emphatically de
MED from responsible sources. 1t is
asserted on the coatrary that there Is
no banditry nor friction in the Men
nonites' quarter; that "they like the
Mexicans and the Mexicans like
them," and that second 1000 Men
nonites will leave Canada for Chi
huahua in June
John F. ID. Wiebe, who helped the
first thousand Mennonites get locat-
ed in their new promised land, has
just returned from the colony. Since
his negotiations to get the sect from
their Canadian homes into Mexico he
has been made agricultural agent for
the Mexico Northwestern railroad.
"The Mennonites like their Mexi.
can neighbors are busy planting and
plowing and building houses anc
barns. Their children are in schoo
and substantial building is used fol
school and church. Their cattle are
fat; there is no sickness and every,
thing is all right with them"
Mexican Consul General Luis Mon
tes de Oca, of Ell Paso, whose office
helped arrange the passage of ths
first 1000 eMnnonites, and Other
Mexican officials denied the repor
that Mexico does not want any more
Mennonite settlers.
A thousand more Mennonites will
leave Canada early in June, accord
ing to present plans" said Mr.. VIE
be. Freight rates have been ad
justed in their favor, and rates
through various ports of entry hay,
been equalized. and the next trair
load will come through Ell Paso New
rates will save the colonists $3.50
to $4,000 on train load of freight
and the Mennonites now are gettinl
ready to leave"
Among persons who corroborat'
Mr.. iWebe's report were Charlie
Moeller of Ell Paso, Rev. Georg'
Buhler of Canada, Jacob Weibe
Klaas Reide, Franz Froese, Abran
Peters and Peter Neufeld, Mennon
ties of Manitoba.

PLAN TO co
INTO POLITICS
RAILWAY UNIONS AND FARMERS
MAY UNITE FORCES.

Yankton, June 15-The possibilit,
of forming some sort of poiltial al
lance between railway workers and
farmers in the southeastern section
of South Dakota, to take an active
part in this years and future politi.
cal campaigns, will be discussed at q
meeting to be held i'm Yankton i'm the
near future, which will be attended
by members of all branches of or
ganized railway labor.
This course was decided upon at 9
preliminary meeting of railway tele-
graphers and agents, which was at
tended by about SO persons, EN-.
ployed by the three principal railway
lines in Southern South Dakota--the
Chicago. Milwaukee & st. Paul, the
Chicago & Northwestern and the
Great Northern. The preliminary
meeting was presided over by Warren
e. Beck, of Geddes, S. D., local chair,
man of the Sioux City and Dakota
division of the Chicago, Milwaukee
st. Paul railway company.
The general wage outlook fol-
telegraphers and depot agents was
discussed to some extent, and also
the action, past and prospective, oi
the railway labor board, but politics
and the necessity of getting into the
political games as the only means ol
obtaining a voice in public affairs al
affecting labor conditions, cropepd vi
and furnished the chief topic of the
discussions.
Ed. r. Derrickson, of Chicago, gen
eral secretary and treasurer of the
Order of Railway Telegraphers, wa.
present and made one of the prin
cipal addresses. Telegraphers ant
depot agents arrived by automobile
by train, by handcar and by motol
railway speeders from the lines ,
the three railway companies.
At the preliminary meeting it wal
decided to call general convention
of the 16 standard organizations o
railway men in southern South Da
kOta. to be held in Yankton in tn,
near future. when definite steps o
political nature will probably b.
taken, according to Chairman Beck
and the advisability of seeking som,
sort of an alignment with the agri
cultural interests will be taken up.
1t is expected the general conven
tiOn will bring together several hun
dred members of the various railwa.
labor organizations and it will b
the first step taken in South Dakot;
toward closer unity between rail
way men and farmers, the purpose o
which will be to present solid from
in dealing wi tphroblems that-are o
vital interest to both railway men an
| farmers.
| "Our idea," said Chairman Beck
lis not to develop any obstructive OF
ganization or tactics, nor to see
coercive powers, but 1t is solely 3
create working organization, wit
all branches of labor allied for tn
achievement Of one common END
Since this is an agricultural regio
we felt that we had much in commo
with the farmers, and it is probabl
that an effort will be made to get
touch with one or more of the val
ious farmers organizations"
| 1t was pointed out by Chairma
Beck that the railway labor vote
South Dakota is of considerable siz
and should be able to make itse
felt.
