have a law compelling land agents

Such a law would bring prosper

Viking have room for hundreds of
people yet. Not one half the town
ships are stettled, and no places
are offering such great oppor
tunities and such resources in the
way of stock, hog and poultry
raising as these townships. The
land agents are doing nothing but
harm to our county as long as
they only sell to speculators.

The bure bred animal has been
for a long time to fix certain des
sirable qualities. .When mated
with just common animals the
pure bred has the power to im

its offsprings in a marked degree.
A pure bred male should always

An Episode qf
Cuba
By ESTHER VANDEVEER
During that period in Cuba when the
people were under the heel of Captain
General Weyler two youug men, Jose
Herrara and Manuel Furtado, one the'
son of a sugar planter, the other a law
yer who hunted up cases of flaw of
title, then levied blackmail on the
holder of the property, came into colli
sion-.
Senorita Inez Madera, the daughter
of a Spanish grandee who had emi
grated from Spain many years before,
was one of those southern beauties
whose dark eyes, over which sweep
long lashes, render them entrancing.
She and Herrara met at a ball given
by a wealthy planter, and the meeting
resulted in a love affair. At the time
Senor Madera, who had sunk a fortune
in Squill before coming to Cuba and
had always since been impecunious,
had been approached by Manuel Fur
tado for the hand of Senorita Inez.
The grandee was at first disposed to
regard the application as an Insult, but
when Furtado aunounced that' he had
accumulated a considerable fortune
and would BUpply the old man's wants
the latter turned a listening ear.
The entrance of Herrara into the
play made a great difference to Fur
tado. What might probably have re
sulted without his interference was
now impossible. But he did not real
ize tills. He bad been introduced to
Senorita Inez by her father, and she
had received him graciously. Then
came to the lawyer a temptation to put
hts rival out of the way. Those were
times when persons in Cuba were very
easily put out of the way. The captain
general was an autoerat whose order
would send any man to prison or be
fore a firing squad.
Furtado lodged Information at the
palace that Jose Herrara was not only
a revolutionist, but that he was plot
ting to bring United States troops into
the island to expel the Spaniards. One
evening when Herrura was expected to
call on Senorita Madera he did not ar
rive. On the way to her home he was
waylaid by order of the governor aud
carried to prison. Xo one knew of his
arrest. Furtado had reported that if it
were known that he were a captive it
would exasperate his friends, and they
were sufficiently numerous to make
trouble. So his arrest was kept secret.
Soon after this came the Spanish
American war and the landing of Unit
ed States troops in Cuba. Herrara lay
ill prison till the war ended, then came
forth, not having been heard from nor
having communicated with any one out
side Ills jail during the hostilities. He
learned that Senorita Maderai suppos-
ing him to be dead, was in mourning
for him. He knew that some one had
procured his arrest and confinement,
but did not know who that person was.
Before making himself known to any
one he instituted inquiries as to his ac
cuser, and since the records were now
open to him he soon learned that he
had been betrayed by Manuel Furtado.
Jose determined to punish bis tra
ducer before making himself known to
the girl he loved. Either he or Manuel
must die, and if it were Jose it was
better that he should not come to life
to be mourned a second time. He was
weak from confinement and gave him
self a brief respite before tackling his
enemy, who had turned in favor of the
revolutionists just in time to be on the
winning side and, having given a con
siderable sum to the cause, was in fa
vor with the people and the American
provisional management.
Furtado was an occasional visitor at
the home of Senor Madera. Senorita
Inez did not like him but, being igno
rant of the trouble he had brought upon
her lover, to please her father she
treated him civilly. Herrara, learning
of these visits, lay in wait for his en
emy.
One night Furtado was stopped by
one who blocked his way. There was
no light except that of a half moon,
and Furtado did not recognize the man
he had injured.
"You don't remember me," Her
rara.
"I do not."
"I am Jose Herrara, whom you in
formed against falsely and whose ar
rest on this very spot you instigated—
an appropriate spot for the settlement
of the account between us."
"Are you going' to murder me?"
"No. Are you unarmed?"
"I have not so much as a penknife."
"Take that." Jose handed him a
cavalry saber. "I have its duplicate."
"I prefer to meet you with others to
see fair play," replied Furtado, "and
I prefer pistols. 1 know nothing of
the use of a saber."
"Nor I. But, as to fair play, you are
not a giver of fair play and conse
quently not entitled to it yourself. As
to sabers, they make less noise than
pistols, and the survivor will have a
better chance to get away unnoticed.
On guard!"
Within ten minutes Herrara left his
enemy dead in the road.
Senorita Madera was sitting in a
dimly lighted garden beside her home
when the gate opened and Herrara
entered.
"Jose!" she exclaimed. "Are you of
the quick or the dead?"
"I am of the quick I have just left
the dead."
The next morning Herrara gave him
self up as the slayer of Furtado, but
be had only to '.make known the treat
ment he had received of his enemy to
inllst sympathy. He was never brought
to trial, not even arrested.
He married |8enorlta Madera and
subsequently became prominent as a
Cuban leglala

PRAISE SIMPLE MIXTURE
Many i,n Wahpeton praise the
simple mixture of buckthorn bark,
I glycerine, etc., known as Adler-i

THOROUGH bowel cleanser ever
sold being even used successfully
in appendicitis. ONE SPOONFUL
relieves almost ANY CASE of con
stipation, sour or gassy stomach.
ONE MINUTE after you take it
the gasses rumble and pass out.
Adler-i-kgt cannot gripe and the
INSTANT action is surprising.—
