Hence her grace ful concession in the Nicaragua canal matter. llie new natural gas company seems to mean business. It proposes to furnish Richmond with gas at 15 cents and Richmond is "willin', That was shown by the action of council last night. The people will certainly indorse that action. The conviction is growing that Goebel was not assassinated for political reasons, but for revenge by some friend of the man whom he killed. The belief is also becoming general that the shot of the assassin was not fired from the window of the government building as was asserted bv Goebel's friends. The cunningly devised scheme to disfranchise the majority of the voters of Kentucky, known as the Goebel election law, enacted two years ago. It places the entire con trol of state elections in the hands of the legislature. Goebel had his whole scheme, carefully blocked out. He exjiected to be the next candi date for governor of Kentucky, and he no doubt expected the popular vote of the state to go against him. lie knew the legislature would be Democratic and that he would be able to control it in his own interest. As this bold, bad plot gradually de veloped the people began to see through it. Hence the heroic methods that were adopted by Governor Tay lor and his adherents. The way to judge these people is to put yourself in their place. If there is anything in this country worth fighting for it is the right of the majority to rule. 03CXX3OOO0XXX30OCX5CXXX3D0OO0 To the Public: The engagement of Jefferson de Angehs and his superb company in the greatest of comic opera produc tions, Iue Jolly Musketeer, on next Friday evening, was secured only after the management of the dennett gave a guarantee that the receipts would meet with the expecta tions of Mr. de An gel is.

February 7th, like the other serious

stage work of this popular American author, he has given us a war play, founded on certain incidents in the conflict between the north and south a generation ago about slavery. It is not quite as military in its features as its predecessors was, but for all that there is bristling bayonets in it and the smoke of the oowder burnt in the trenches before besieged Rich mond reaches the nostrils of the au dience. The background of war is thrilling anclyet so picturesque and nretty that horrors of the real article do ni Aise in the imagination to mar the majestic and inspiring magnitude of the fancy-fed conflict. In this case the blending of love. heroism and patriotism makes a com bination that is irresistible and that has given ''Secret Service" its tre mendous popularity. Prices 25-50 75c and $1.

BORN TO WED now s Texan Woman's Inheritance, s Pair of Mules, Gained Her a Second Hosbaad. The sandstorm had passed, leaving the air vibrant and electric. The lashed earth was distorted from the punishment it bad endured. v Mrs. Elliott emerged from the fartDCTl TurntfT 'Tor ttnr ite-nwui wv were but four and made an attack on the heaps of alkali dust that covered the floor. Iler weapons were a Ore shovel and a coal scuttle. A mere broom woukl have availed no more than a feather. She was a northern woman making acquaintance with the new southwest. Domestic help in the southwest Is a case of Chinaman or nothing. Mrs. Elliott would have preferred a cobra. A shadow fell silently across the tiny entrance way and a soft voice said: "Good evenin." Madam resented the southerntsm. It was only afternoon. However, she looked toward the open door and accepted the challenge. "D'y'all want a girir Mrs. Elliott gripped her shovel firmly to prevent herself from throwing her arms around the woman's neck. "Will you walk in?" She faintly remembered a tradition regarding servants', entrances and other devices of civilization, but they were Intangible vapors, beating Idly against the rocks of primitive conditions. The Texan smiled gently, and her brown eyes were as friendly as a dog's. She se.ited herself unasked, calmly rocking back and forth and apparently seeing no reason to pause In the chewing of her gum. "Are you looking for a place T "Yes. Y'see. m busban' has Jest died, an of c'ose I cay n't live alone In a tent out on the plain." Mrs. Elliott bowed In recognition of Texan conventionalities. "1 thought mebby y'll 'nd 'low me to put my tent In y'all's back y&hd. Then I'd be safe, an I cu'd wo'k feh yalL" The Idea was good. Mrs. Elliott grasped it with concealed eagerness. "Yes. M' husban' kT me a shack an a pa'b o' mules an a wagon." Her simper could not be called purse proud, but It was certainly well satisfied. "Husband been dead long?" j " 'Bout three weeks." Her cheerful ness was suspicious. "Was he good to yon?" "I reckon he was as good as most when he was sobeh. Sometimes when he'd been drinkin be use to beat me.' This had apparently been no cause for resentment, but was regarded with mild unconcern as the usual coarse of nature. "What Is your name?". . " Loo-eye-ia." Sirs. Elliott gasped, but her necessi ties were great. "Loo-eye-sa." she said, with a gulp, "yon may come tomorrow." Early the next morning the shack and shack bold effects appeared Is charge of a lazy, shiftless looking and unkempt Texan ranger, smelling vilely of tobacco and whisky. Looeyeza followed with smiling deliberation. "Who is that man?" asked Mrs. Elliott. "He says his name is Mack Taylor." In New Mexico it Is the part of wisdom to take a man's word for hla name and to make no further inquiries. "Is he a friend of yours?" "He lives ofT yondeh. an I got him to move m shack feh me. I never saw him befoh." ' When the full New Mexican moon hung overhead that night, flooding the plains with silver sheen for a hundred miles, nnwonted voices reached Mrs. Elliott's ear. She made an errand into the back yard. On a bench In the tent door sat Looeyexa and Taylor. Hla feet were on another bench, and he had shed his coat.' He had the air of a man perfectly at home. - "I jes come oveh t see ef I'd got Mrs. Renders shack fixed all right." he exclaimed, thrusting his pipe behind him and trying to appear unconcerned. Looeyeza' smile was conscious and

For a few seconds th atmosphere of the room was peculiar "Thomas Jefferson's Ideas of demoe racy were crude and limited." remark ed Mrs. Elliott to her friend.

Why doe he hesitate? What delay bis spring? He waited so long that I argued it out that his blindness reasoned against bis ferocity. He bad been blind for a year or two perhaps. He had never left the cave alone except to move np and down over that one route, and he probably feared a fall into the ravine if be ventured a spring.

Did the beast know the lay of the ground before losing hi eyesight or was it the s'u'tille instinct given to the feline tribe? It was a clear leap of 15 feet, maybe a foot or two more. Only at that spot could be strike the shelf on which 1 stood. He rose in the air like a bird taking flight, described a gracefol half curve in the air aud landed so tightly that I felt rather than heard bim. He was ten feet away from me, and he reared np and snuffed at the air in every direction. Up to that instant my broken ribs bad given me no pain. Ail of a sodden it seemed as if knives were catting into the flesh, and I had to clinch my hands and ah at my teeth hard to prevent a scream from passing my tips. But for the wind sad the snow the beast mast have got my cent so dose at band. There was snch a swirl that be was at fault, and he did not walk along the ledge. On the contrary, after about two minutes be leaped back across the ravine and disappeared Into his den. Then, with many a groan aad half suppressed ejaculation.
