corlespondia al amor de Barahona,
era la perfection fisica del seXo de
su raza Sus ojos azabachados full
guraban con relampagos de placer
cuando Sc dirigian al valladar verde
amarillento tornado por los bambues
v juncos que Sc cimbreaban 10 lar
go del rio, sitio desde ell cual Bara-
hona, temblando de amor y de deseos,
atisbaba todos sus movimientos ca
denciosos y ritmicos, como las melo-
dias suaves y dulces que emanan de
la naturaleza en- los amaneceres tro-
picales. Su pelo que adornaba con flo
res de emajagua, describia una red
de encantos al ondular su cuerpo con
la heXibilidad del ramaje, cuando dan
zaba en- los areytos. Y en- aquella red
de encantos y en- aquellos ojos fasci-
nadores habia cafdo Barahona.
Ell odio entire ambas tribus era te-
rrible, con toda la fuerza impiedad
propias del salvajismo de aquellos
tienpos. Y esa barreras maldita que
sc interponia, como bastion inexpug-
nable, entire dos almas conjuntas por
la espiritualidad de un amor que te-
MIA la fortaleza que lie daba su mis-
ma imposibilidad, hacia leYantar
tempestades freneticas en- ell cerebro
de Barahona que vagaba en- la noche
silente como sombra fantastica, sal
vando barrancos, lanzandose al espa-
clio en- las ramas de los arboles para
vadear los rios y cruzar precipicios
enormes que atrafan con ell vertigo de
los abismos, solo por ir al santuario
de su amor levantado ALA detras de
los bambues que Sc retrataban sobre
la superficie del rio, como gigantes
inmensos guardadores de la cueva que
albergaba la reliquia de sus lquereres.
Pensar en- Que Cibuco permitiese a
Guarema zanzibar de residencia para
el cacicazgo de Anibon, que este je-
fe de tribu consintiese que su hijo
Barahona aumentase el numero de
sus eternos odiados enemigos, era
tanto como pretender quebrar los
ausubales que separaban sus comar-
cas- que habian resistido los azotes
de tormentas horrisonas desde epocas
inmemoriales.

DO, largo como el sufrimiento de un
suplicio, para los dos amantes. Y va
Guarema no lucia su garbo en- los
areytos, nj Sc acostaba al graznar del
mochuelo nj Sc levantaba con ell sol;
sus noches insomnicas eran como la
Ultima de las condenados a muerte Y
sus dias como una pena amarga que
jamas Sc extingue. Igual lie sucedia
a Barahona Y en- ambas tribus Sc
notaba la tristeza desesperaci6n de
aquellos que estaban predestinados a
ser los sucesores de dos caciques en-
discordia; ;pero nadie Sc atrevia ha-
Ger la menor alusion 10 que pasaba,

Una noche de otono no Sc celebro

sor de las tormentas. En- los alrede-

NEW PEST FOUND
WHICH DESTROYE TOMATOES
(By Associated Prsss)

Gainesville, March IA greenish,
almost hairless caterpillar is the to-
mato's worst enemy, according to
Professor ]. R. Watson, entomelo-
gist of the Florida Experiment sta
ton, whose. business is to evolve
ways and means to ameliorate the
farmers troubles in so far as plant
protection is concerned.
This little worm eats its way into
the tomato and consumes it's con-
tents, but because of the worms
prediction for corn, especially
sweet corn, tomato damage can be
prevented, Professor Watson says.
An occasional double row of corn
should be planted across the tomato
field at intervals of about 80 feet,
and the corn should be planted at a
time when it will be coming into silk
when the first fruit is forming, on
the tomato vines.

snuffling. Count fifty. All the stuff
ness, dryness, struggling for breath is
gone. You feel fine.

Captain Richmond Pearson Hob

son, hero of the Merrimac, is to speak
tonight in St. James Methodist church
commencing at 1880 o'clock, on the
subject "The Challenge of the Black
Flag and the Red Flag" Admission
is free, and the public generally is
invited to attend. Captain Hobson
says: "In the worlds reconstruction
to which mankind is now plying it.
eelf, new fundamental rights are to
be guaranteed, the rights for COM
munities and nations in addition to
the bill of rights for individuals.
Underlying both kinds of rights is the
dignity of human life and its inher-
ent right not to be exploited but to
be free to adjust itself in harmony
with the forces of nature. The ap-
plication of this principle in COM
merce can be stated thus: in their
business relations men shall not eX-
plot harmful or destructive COM
modities, but, shall return value re-
ceived for substance taken"
