It was December when once again Maid Marion was lifted to her loung ing-chair overlooking the Bagum bayan, and little by little began pick ing up once more the threads that •were so nearly severed for all time, and, as health and strength slowly re turned hearing the tidings of the busy, bustling world about her. Others, too, had known anxiety as sore as that which had so lined the face of Col. Ray and trebled the sil •ver in the soft hair of Marion, his wife Well-nigh distracted, a mother sped across the continent to the Pacific, there to await the coming of ber BOH' remains. From the niglit of Walter Foster's disappearance at CRrquinez no word of hie existence came to give her hope, no trace of his movements until, late in August, there was brought to her the cabled message: "Alive, well, but in trouble. Ilav wrltten." And this was headed Yokohama Not until October did that longed for, prayed-for letter come—a selfish letter, since it gave no really adequate excuse for the long weeks of silence and only told that the boy had been in hiding, almost in terror of his life While still dazed by the shock of the fire and smarting from his burns wrote Walter, he had wandered from the cars at Port Costa. Ho had en countered "mpst uncongenial per sons," he said, among the recruits and never realizing that it was deser tion, war-time-desertion at that, had determined to get back to Sacramento and join some other command. Yes. There was another reason, but one "mother couldn't appreciate," Un known to all but one of his comrades on the train,~ ho had abundant money realized from the sale ef horses and cattle at the ranch.

They had him virtually a prisoner. He ooald. only stir abroad at night, and then in company with his jailers. There was a man, he wrote, who had a grudge against him, a man dis charged from the ranch, who followed him to Denver and enlisted in the party, a man who he was most anxious. to get rid of, and the first thing he knew that fellow, whom he supposed had gone on to Manila, turned np in disguise and joined forces yrith his tormentors. That drove him to desperation, nerved him to one sublime effort, and one night he broke away and ran. He was fleet of foot, they were heavy -with drink, and he dodged them among the wharves and piers, took refuge on a coast steamer, and found himself two days later at Portland. Hare he bethought him of an old friend and succeeded in finding a man he well knew he could trust, despite his mother's old dislike for him, a man who knew hia 5whole past, of his de sertion, of his danger—a man who himself about'enlisting for serv ice in the Philippines, and who per suaded him that his surest way to win exemption from punishment was to hasten after the detachment, beat it, if possible, to Manila, and join it there at hia own expense. He still had some hundreds left. They went to SAD Francisco, where Walter took steamer at once for Honolulu to await there the coming of the recruit detachment. The in fantry finally came, his friend with them, but no sign of more cavalry. To Walter's dismay he had seen among the passengers landed from the Doric the disguised rough whom, as Sackett, he had so unfavorably known before, who as Murray had fol lowed him into the army. It would never do to fall into his clutches again the man would betray him in stantly. Walter kept in hiding until he heard that Sackett was accused of stabbing a staff officer of Gen. Vinton and had fled the island. Later, when the next troop ship came, bringing his friend with it, he again took-counsel. As the lad hod fully admitted, his friend was the same old chum of Freiburg days—the friend to whom his parents had so much "objected. The fortunes of war had thrown them together, Willard as impecunious as ever, and the Damon and Pythias, the Orestes and Pylades, the two Ajaxes of the old days were in close and intimate touch once more, Damon, as of old, the banker for the twain. The troop ships were to pro ceed as soon as coaled. There were reasons now why Walter wished to stay in Honolulu, but Willard urged his moving at once on to Hong-Kong and there awaiting the result of his negotiations at Manila. At Hong Kong it was hia hope to receive the word "Come over. All is well," and, finally, as his fund.s would soon run put, he closed his letter with the re quest that his mother cable him $500 through the Hong-Kong and Shang hai bank. The money she cabled at once, then In dread she had wired Col. Martiu dale, who was gadding about with old army chums when most she needed him at home, and that gentleman, with a sigh, again went sisterward, saying he knew the boy was sure to turn up to torment him, and won dering what on earth young Hope ful had done now. He looked grave enough when he read the letter asked for time to communicate con fidentially with a chiun at Washing ton, and was awaiting- reply when all on a sudden the papers came out with the Startling dispatch telling of the murder of Private Walter Foster while on his post as sentry at Manila and then came weeks of woe Despite Drayton's cable from Ma nila that the identification of the re mains was not conclusive to him, at least, Mrs. Foster was convinced that the murdered lad was her only boy, and all because of that heartless flirt, that designing—that demoniac army girl who had bewitched him and then brought his blood upon her own head. "If it wasn't Walter who lies there slain by assassin rival, the innocent victim of that creature's hideous van ity, would I not have heard from him? Do you suppose my blessed boy would not instantly have cabled to tell me he was alive if he wasn dead?" And, indeed, that was a hard question to answer. And to the remains of Private Wil lard Benton, that had been viewed by many a genuinely sorrowing comrade and stowed away with solemn'mili tary honors in a vault at Paco ceme tery, were sealed up as best they could do it at Manila, and, though un convinced as to their identity despite the convictions of others in author ity, the commanding general yielded to cables from the war department and ordered their shipment to San Francisco. They .were out of sight of all signals from Corregidor when Martindale's cable came suggesting search for Private Benton Willard. Zenobia Perkins sniffed contemptu ously and scoffed malignantly when told that the doubting Thomases were gaining ground and numbers, that though Mr. Stuyvesant might be brought to trial for killing a man, it would not be for killing Foster until more was ascertained regarding the actual victim. Private Connelly, re covered from his fever, was forever hunting up Farnham, the brakeman, and devising schemes for the capture of that blackguard Murray. Day and night, he maintained that Murray was the man who had accosted Clarke and Hunter at the battery, that it was' probably he who, with his pals, had waylaid and robbed the lone re cruit returning from his quest in East Paco, that It vu he who-must have struggled ttiUl hix» before firliuc r-v v. the fatal shot but" not trace of Murray or his sailor mates could the secret service agents find, and mat ters were in this most unsatisfactory state when at th^ end of November came -the Queen of the Fleet, dis patched several weeks before to fetch the troops "sidetracked" at Honolulu, Just as the commanding general his chief Burgeon were in consults tion as to what on earth to do with Zenobia Perkins—the woman had be come a public nuisance. "You compel me to remain against my will because I'm an indispensable witness," said she to the saturnine adjutant general, beyond whom she never now succeeded in passing. She was volubly berating him, to his grim amusement, when the lattice doers from the corridor swung open and two officers entered. For nearly two minutes they stood waiting for a break in her tempestu ous flow of words, but as none came, ,the senior Impatiently stepped for ward and the adjutant general, look ing up, sprang from his chair just as the chief himself came hurrying out from the sanctum sanctorum and greeted the newcomers with cordial ly olasping hands. The lady too had risen. "Well, I shall have to interrupt you, gentlemen," said she, "for my busi ness won't keep if you propose to keep me. I want to know right here and now, Gen. Drayton, whether I'm to get my pay or not if not, I don't propose to wait another day in Ma nila, and you can get out of the scrape the best way you know how. No one here but me could swear that young man Foster was dead, and you know it." "You've sworn to what isn't so, madame," interposed-the new arrival, placidly. "Here's that young Foster t" and as he spoke the lattioe doors again swung open, and, very pale, a tall youth in civilian dress was ushered in, at sight of whom Maj. Farquliar fairly shouted. "How'd I get him?" said the new comer five minutes later. "Found him aboard the Coptic when she met us as we were pulling out from Honolulu. He was going back to the states. Left Hong-Kong before the story was published. Didn't want to come, of course, but had to." "Wasn't there time to write his mother? They surely would have cabled, and the Coptic must have got into San Francisco a week ago." "Certainly. Letter was sent right on by the steamer, addressed to Cin cinnati." "O Lord!" said Drayton. "And she was at 'Frisco all the time. Colonel, he added to his chief-of-staff, "what's the first transport home?" "Zealandia, sir to-morrow." "Sorry for the Zealandia, but Zenobia must go with her."

Superintendent Barrett lM*nen it CIr culnr of Sdffffcstioui to Conduc tor* and Instructors. Superintendent Barrett has issued a circular of notes and suggestions to conductors and instructors in normal institutes, in part as follows: The Importance of the Normal inatltutB as a part of our school system cannot easily be overestimated. To many teach ers It Is the only school in which they get any training In the best means of discipline and the most approved methods of instruc tion. To many others it is the only place to which they can go annually for new draughts of inspiration and enthusiasm to refresh them for another year's work. To all teachers it should provide the means of getting Increased Information, securing better training, and developing higher Ideals of professional life. The results of the Institute depend very largely upon the high character and teach ing ability of the instructors. As the teacher Is so Is the school and as the in structors are so is the institute. If they are punctual in attendance, prompt in management, and particular in work, thei teachers will follow their example. If they are concise In statement, careful in expression, and clear in instruction, the teachers will Imitate their style. If they are exact in results, energetic in action, and enthusiastic in spirit, the teachers will be so to a greater or less degree. To make the institute a success the in structors must not forget that It Was cre ated for the purpose of training teach ers in better means of discipline and more successful methods of instruction. It should, therefore, be a model school in both these respects, so that teachers may learn by example as well as precept. Though It Is not the primary object of the institute to give academic instruction, yet in most counties it is generally found necessary to do so for the benefit of those who have not had the requisite preparation. In. giving such instruction the opportunity should be used for illustrating the best methods^ of presenting and teaching the subject. HJEQUAL SUFFRAGISTS. Iowa Association Is Pushing: Its Cam paign Thro null Its Clubs All Over the State. The Equal Suffrage association of the state is pushing its campaign through its clubs and organizations all over the state since the delegates re turned from the national convention at Minneapolis. The headquarters in Des Moines are again open, and Mrs. N. Nelson is looking after the work. Re ports that have been received thus far regarding the members of the legis lature thus far nominated are quite en couraging, she states. Not a great many of the members of the next leg islature have yet been nominated, but of those who have been the greater /dumber are thought to favor the suf frage cause. The local clubs are look ing after the prospective nominees in the counties where the conventions have not been held, and are using all their influence to have men nominated who will support a bill for the submis sion of the proposition to the people. The hold-over members are already catalogued on the bonks «f*the asso ciation, and in a few weeks the com mittees will be able to judge some thing as to their chances in the next legislature. HONEST CONVICTS. i® TUe AVarden of the Anaiuoaa Peniten tiary Relate* an Incident Wortliy o£ Merit. Warden Hunter, of Anamosa, writes as follows to the state board of con trol: An Incident" occurred in this Institution that I think worthy of report. Gustav Ha mann, an inmate who Is used as a team ster, driving between the prison and the state farm, on his way to the farm the other afternoon picked up a pocketbook belonging to a lads". On his arrival at the farm he looked up the officer in charge and handed the pocketbook to him, stating where he had found it. He was alone. On examination the pocketbook contained money and a certificate of deposit to the amount of $559.57, which has been re turned to the owner. This is the second Incident of the kind occurring In the in stitution. Some time ago an officer lost his pocketbook In the bathroom -containing J25. It was found by a convict and re turned to him." Hamaun is 20 years of age and was sentenced last year from Lyon county for seduction. CONTROL OF MARRIAGE. Question of Prevention of Unlit Al liuncca Given Consideration by Iowa Olllciuls. A At the quarterly conference o£ tho board of control and the superintend ents of state institutions in DesMoines the question of prevention of the mar riage of the unlit was given extended consideration. Dr. F. M. Powell, su perintendent of the.state hospital for the insane at.Glarindn, read a paper on "Unsanitary Marriages," and there was much discussion. It was the general sense of Ihe superintendents and mem bers of tin1 board that the question should be taken up by the legislature and steps taken for state control of the marriage of*the.unfit. .It was clearly pointed oat-, however, -hy .Dr. I'owell in his paper and by others that the legislature ought not to act without naming a commission of experts to examine the subject carefully. Charged witli Home Theft. Two young men going under tho names of Shepard andlloward.were ar rested in Cedar Falls, charged with stealing a tenni of horses and a buggy from the Okee barns of I'ai-kersburg. They drove to Cedar Falls and tried to sell the outfit for $70, or about half what it was worth. Sheriff Law was in the city on a visit and chased the thieves to Waterloo in a buggy, over taking them and placing them in jail. They have been returned to Parkersr burg for trial.
