Burrs wife, formerly Mrs. Theodosia Provost,
who was 10 years his senior, died CT cancer in
1894 and after his duel with Hamilton his
troubles never ceased. His efforts to form
republic in the Southwest, for which he was
tried for treason in 1907, and acquitted, are
well known, but only made his utter ruin the
more certain and complete. Perhaps the hard
est blow of all, however, was the loss of his
only child and daughter, Theodosia, who was
lost off Cape Hatteras. During all Of his
trouble she was steadfsst in her devotion to her
father, and the recollectons Of her virtues, and
of her only son, who preceded her to the grave
at the age of II, and of his wife, of whom he
was passionately fcnd, were perhaps the only
pleasures of one who lived alone in the past
for, as the poet has said: Memory is the only
friend that grief can call its own"

he soon separated, and his last days were de-

of Alexander Hamilton-and that william P.

Pendclton, Esq, counselor at law, were Access

Burr stole away from New York like thief

1T Is hard at this distant day to realize the
] profound shock the death of Alexander
Hamilton produced. From every quarter came
wordsG0f regret-words undoubtedly true and
sincere.
The New York Herald Of July 81, 1904, said:
when we say that Hamilton is dead, we can
add nothing to the cause Of grief-when we
remember how he lived! We can add nothing
to the luster of his fame. Eulogism sinks
languid on the melting heart. 1t gives no throb
unfelt before; it cites no worth unknown. If
the pathetic will of Cicero were to speak, even
from the gloom Of the tomb, it could open no
new source Of regret it could raise no new
emotion of sorrow Deep and solemn is the
grief Of people. The tide swells from 10000
fountains; the torrent rolls in resiStleSS course.
II the great spirit of our departed glory will
hnger but little and delay its ardent flight to
the prepared mansions Of eternal bliss, it will
witness that we are not ungrateful; it will be-
hold the pure and convulSive tributes OF I'M
affected woe. His virtues are reflected from
countless tears, and men say he Is lost, as II

DO YOU
 SUFFER FROM
 CONSTIPATION? :?

Countless remedies are advertised for constipation. Many relieve for the moment but they are habit form ing and must be continued. Others contain calomel and dangerous miri- sral drugs, which remain in the sys- lem, settle in the joints and cause ,ches and pains. Some are harsh purgatives which cramp and gripe and leave depressed after effect.
 Avoid lubricating oils which only grease the intestines and encourage natures machinery to become lazy.
 A purely vegetable laxative such as Carter's Little Liver Pills, gently touches the liver, bile starts to flow. the bowels move gently, the intestines are thoroughly cieansed and constipa- ton poisons pass away. The stomach. liver and bowels are now active and the system enjoys real tonic effect. All druggists sell genuine red pkgs.

Read what he say. If he is not apologize I will keel him anyhow ,
 Juanita closed the door, lit the candle in the recess behind the bed. It was as she had supposed. The note was written in indecipher- able characters. She went back to Gabreau.
 He has apologized,' she said. Nothing would be bettered by Ga- breau's killing somebody
 Tt is because Divitt make him do it. Divitt say somebody make you understand dat he gon' pool off yo' veil, so you go way. Divitt say it hurt Turk ladies 'modesties when somebody pool off dey veils. Ledbetter say he beg you pardons. He will never do dat if you will come back. So he tek out his pen and write. Adrian Fouche say so to. But they laugh and I not know what he write"
 Odd that Gabreau had not sus- pected he would write in Turkish.
 ''Is he there yetP"
 For why should he go? He think you come back and kiss him some mo. De udder man have gone. De man what they call 'senor' He have gone to ketch his boat"
 Juanita breathed again. When Gabreau said huskily, You will not do it? You will not kiss no man?" she answered quickly. No, Gabreaul" scarcely knowing what she said So it was accident that he had come here, one of those twists of the shuttle that seemed to give significance to the whole design. And he had not even suspected, since he had gone away. Copyright, Dodd, Mead and Co)

The exchange of glances lasted only an instant, yet swift courage had entered Juanita when she looked again at Ledbetter She had felt that she would fall if she tried to move. She knew now that she could not fall before those friend ly, smiling eyes. She could move now-she could get away. But there was Divitt watching her
 Quickly her hand moved over her tray. She selected a rose and, bend ing over Ledbetter, thrust it into his buttonhole, then lightly, swift ly, left kiss upon his astonished cheek-a kiss through the mesh and spangles of her veil, yet never theless, a kiss.
 She was gone. Molly was smil- ing at her where she stood in front of the cashiers cage.
 Honey, that was great. Eric Ledbetters got a million, and this is his first look-in. I thought for minute you were going to frost him. Whats the matter?"

into the court. Juanita stood a dazed instant leaning against the cool stucco of the house, then she stumbled up the dark stair and into her room, locking the door, taking off her veil so that she could breathe. For a deadly in- stant her heart had stopped Now it was beating in great beats that seemed to push against each other. Conchita came to the door and she bade her go away. "A lit orange flower water" she pleaded. He will cure anything"
 Juanita drank the water Lay on de bed" ordered Conchita. He cannot cure you while yuo ron up and down"
 Juanita turned on her. "Vamos!" she cried, and Conchita waddled out
 Up and down, twisting her hands. How safe she had felt-when here l, to this very city, this very house! And she had thought him at the other end of the world Apparently he was friend of Adrian Fouche and of the man who had spoken to her in the strange tongue-Turk- ish, of course A trap-and whose? Who had suspected and brought i him here? No matter. He had come. would come again. The man Ledbetter would have pulled off her veil in another instant. Yet they must have thought she could not understand when they spoke in English. ..

 Juanita opened the door and Gabreau handed her a note.
 Tt is from Eric Ledbetter," he said, de man wat you kiss" And
 as Juanita did not take it, You not want 1t? Then what for you kiss him?"
 "To get away" Gabreau's voice
 compelled an explanation.
 You not kiss him because you
