CHAPTER III.
A Daughter cf the Montezumas.
Miss Pauline Westerly of New York
has just returned from a shopping tour j
to the Bon Marche and other temples "
of fashion. She has dismissed her car- '
riage at the door of the Grand Conti- (
nental. and assuming a handsome tea i
zown. rechnes in the depths of an easy
chair in her private parlor, engaged
with a novel and package of bon-bons
at the same time, girl fashion, when a
knock sounds on the dcor.
This reminds her that Dora is out.
so. half rising, she calls:
"Entrez!"
The dcor opens, and to her surprise
a lady comes in a lady whose gar
ments are worn with the zrace of one
to the manner born, whose figure.
though below thar of the queenly
American girl, is wonderfully symmet
rical Miss Westerly jumps to her
feet.
"Pardon." she exclaims, blushing, "I
thought it was a servant. I would have
opened the door in person had I
thouzht "
"No apolozy Is needed. Miss Wester
ly." replies the other, in a rich, music
al voice that instantly takes Pauline
back to the land of the Montezumas.
And now the American girl has a
cood view of her visitor's face, a re
markably beautiful Spanish face.
Pauline admits that she has never met
i girl more handsome they form a de
rided contrast, these two, the New
Ycrk blonde and the Mexican bru
nette. "I have met you somewhere, years
ago my memory must be defective
I cannot quite recollect where it was
probably in Mexico," says Miss West
erly, with a puzzled Icok.
T am Juaniut. Lopez," replies 'tire1
other.
At this the blende beauty from Goth
am gives a start and Iook3 her sur
prise. "The daughter of Senor Manuel Lo
pez, my most bitter opponent in the
management of the El Dorado. Yes, I
remember now, we were both young
girls when with our fathers we met at
the mine. Is this a visit of a social
nature or one of business, may I asK."
Senorita Lopez?"
The girl from Mexico, who can trace
ner uneage on ner motners sice oacK
to the Montezumas, fixes her great
eyes upon Miss Pauline'3 face there
is something solemn about her look
that makes the- object of it uneasy
i ab
he cannot reason why, since she has
inherited from her father a brave spir
it that can face danger without being
daunted.
"It is business. Miss Westerly. In
the first place, I desire you to under
stand that I do not sympathize with
my father in his schemes for obtain
ing control of the mine. I am very
well satisfied with the way in which
you have managed it. Therefore I
come to you to-day, first with a warn
ing, and then to ask a favor."
She waits a minute as if to see what
( haz naiu o x,
I effect her words may have on Pauline,
i who simply neds her head and smiles
I encouragingly. So the Mexican senor-
! ita proceeds, speaking rapidly, and us-
I ing the very best of English:
t "My father thought he had won
when he secured that paper pardon.
Miss Westerly, but you see to what
1 even a noble hidalgo can stoop when
he is deep in ignoble plots; but it
seems your shrewd maid outwitted
- him; at any rate, he declares she must
J hae taken m bis inside pocket
nothing in order to further his de
signs. Since he cannot secure the pa
pr, he hopes to find Senor Danvers,
and failing in that, he will make such
an individual to order, so as to regain
the mine."
"Would he dare do that, senorita to
fonre a man. as it were, and palm him
upon the lawyers as the original? But
he has no ordinary woman to deal
with. Miss Lopez; I mean that difficul
ties do not daunt me. I am ready to
meet your father, and demonstrate the
fact that American girls know how to
take care of themselves yes. and
even manage silver mines that may be
left to them by their fathers. I thank
you for this warning. I would recipro
cate your kindness, if it were within
my power."

The Sahara is not at all as popular

saltier than the sea. which cenerally

Gold Output of Alaska.
The gold mines on the American
side of the line in the far northwest
are this year for the first time pro
ducing much larger quantities of the
precious metal than are being found
in British territory. The yield for
19C5 at Nome and in the surrounding
district is estimated by experts at ap
proximately $10,000,000. and the Tan
ana valley has cleaned up $7,000,000.
Last year the total gold production
for all Alaska was $9,050,000. or near
ly $2.GCO,nfl0 less than this year's
cleanup at Nome alone, where the
principal increase took place during
the last summer. It is safe to assume
that the entire Alaskan gold output
will not be far short of J20.000.000. On
the other hand, the Klondike output
for 1904, which was J10.S29.000, will
not be much exceeded by its total for
1905. Tacoma Ledger.
MARSHAL WAS UNDULY LENIENT.
Nebraska Official Removed
From
Office by the PrMident.
Irving Baxter, United States district
attorney for Nebraska, has been re
moved" from office by President Roose
velt. District Attorney Baxter, who was
appointed to office last spring, prose
cuted on behalf of the government
the case against Richards & Comstock,
cattle raisers, who were charged with
fen(n
illegally the public lands in
Nebraska and whose prosecution, was
brought about by investigations into
land frauds made under the direction
j of Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock.
I The men were convicted and senten-
ced to six hours in the custody of the
United States marshal. Practically
no defense was made in the trial.
In carrying out the sentence the
United States marshals deputized the
attorneys of Richards & Comstock to
take charge of the defendants for the
six hours of their sentence. For ex
ercising this leniency the marshal was
removed from office.
TRIUMPH OF MODERN HYGIENE.
Largely Shown In Constantly Increas
ing Longevity.
There can be no question that the
i Prevalence of certain diseases has in
creased during the last half century.
Conspicuous among these are diabetes
and insomnia, both of which are large
ly due to the mental stress of a hard
er struggle for existence. The in
creased consumption of alcohol and
the free use of narcotics are also re
sponsible for many morbid conditions
unknown to our hardier forbears. But,
in comparing the present prevalence
of diseases with that of the past there
are several factors for which due al
lowance is often not made. One of
these is that our forefathers died, as
a rule, at a considerably younger age
than their descendants; if they did
not perish by the sword they were
moved down from time to time by the
plague and other devasting epidemics.
In this way they escaped many of the
diseases not only of old age, but of
advanced middle generation represent
ed to a much larger extent than is now
the case the survival of the fittest.
Most of the weaklings is that it has
preserved a large proportion of these
lives. Practitioner.
Storms en Mars Terrific.
Weather wise prophets are issuing
bulletins of the rain and shine in
Mars. The most tumultous tempests
that the elements offer the earth
dweller are holidays compared with
the storms of two weeks and again
of forty-one days in length which Prof.
Pickering of Harvard ha3 found rag
ing around Martians. The clouds of
Mars are always light yellow. The
desert regions are a darker shade of
yellow. Long duration of storms and
long clear intervals between are char
acteristics of Martian weather. One
possible reason for the great meteor
ological changes is the greater tenuity
of atmosphere there. Mars presents
vast and conspicuous changes in ap
pearance, whereas a Martian astrono
mer, looking towards earth, would
find that the annual changes which he
could perceive over the surface ot our
planet present considerable sameness
and lack of variety.

TANTALUM A HARD SUBSTANCE.
Diamond Drill Has No Effect On This
Metal.
Tantalum cuts tantalum. Diamonds
cannot cut it. The only effect pro
duced by a diamond drill, worked day
and night for three days on a sheet
of pure metallic tantalum one twenty
fifth of an inch thick, with a speed of
5,000 revolutions per minute, was a
slight dint in the sheet and rhe wear
ing out of the diamond. Tantalum dif
fers from all other known substances
in combining extreme hardness with
extreme ductility. When red hot it is
easily rolled into wires and sheets or
drawn into wire. It is scarcely affec
ted by the oxygen of the air even at a
red heat, and not at all at ordinary
temperatures, and it is not dissolved
by the strongest acids, nor does it
amalgamate with mercury. It melt3
only at the highest attainable temper
atures, and is therefore well fitted for
filaments in incandescent lamps, being
much stronger than carbon. If it can
be obtained in sufficient quantity it
should prove most useful. It will fur
nish better boring tools than the- dia
mond drill, cheaper electric lights than
carbon, and as a plate or a wire hard
er than diamond, yet strong and tough,
it suggests almost limitless uses.
Every other hard substance Is brittle.

gineer for centuries.
CHOSEN MINISTER TO NORWAY.!
Hsrbert H. D. Peirce First American
Representative at New Court.
Herbert H. D. Peirce, who has been ',
selected by the president to be the j
first United States minister to Norway,
has for several years been third as-
sistant secretary of state at Washing-,
ton. His most recent work that came
to the notice of the public was as rep-
resentative of the state department
of the Portsmouth peace conference. (
As third secretary, the consular ser-1
vice has been under his immediate i
charge, and in 1904 he made a trip '
around the world inspecting United ;
States consulates. The results of
thi3 trip, which are found in the rec-,
ommendation for the improvement of
the consular service, are regarded as '
of great value. Mr. Peirce has held
secretaryships in the diplomatic ser- ,
vice, including that of first secretary

Secretary of Argriculture Wilson. The
annual production of eggs Is now a
score of billions. Poultry products
have climbed to a place of more than
half a billion dollars in value. Dur
ing the last sixteen years the domestic
exports of farm products have amount
ed to $12,000,000,000. more than
enough to buy "all of the railroads of
the country at their commercial value,
and this was a mere surplus for which
rhere was no demand at home. Wealth
production on the farms of the United
States in 1905 reached the highest
amount ever ata'ned in this or any
other country 56,415.000.000. Should
there be no release from his present
position as a wealth producer three '
years hence the farmer will find that
the farming element, about 35 per
cent of the population, has produced
an amount of wealth within ten years '
equal to one-half of the entire na
tional wealth produced in three-cen-
turies. !
Brazil Weeds Beautiful.
Beautiful Brazil woods are recom

Evangelist's Quick Wit.
Dr. Torrey, the English evangelist,
is a man of ready wit, which he uses
with effect when interrupted while
speaking. On one occasion in London I
a bibulous fellow arose and announced
waveringlv that he did not believe
everything in the bible. "I don't see how
anybody can walk on water," he de- t
dared. "Can you do it. Dr. Torrey?"
The preacher looked grimly at the 1
man for a moment and then answer- '
ed: "Well. I can walk on water better
than I can on rum." '
