iNiHAX legislatures have peculiar methods. The proceedings yesterday illustrated this characteristic. It also vliunrated the precedence of politics fover principle and business judgment

The spectacle of a governor of a state -demanding several times the investigation of an office where there is good evi"dencj of croakaduHsas, an the delay of the legislature to act is not refreshing to the average citizen. It. dops not matter whether the warden «»f th*j ison north

Democrat or a il-t»ib)n:.tn. What Hho p"opln demand to know is whether or »not his accounts are correct^and if ilia uffiiv .$17,000 of the funds belonging to She »*t*te, to which he has no right. ahoald at once bo compelled to deliver up the funds illegally held. No business auaa would permit a man to retain funds voder such circu*nst*nc33. An investigation wou'd be made immediately.

The pretense that the prison committee would attend to the case is flimsy. Jft is simply an effort to ]jKsip3R9 what premises to ba another scandal added to ^he long list Srhleh liaedisgracnd Indiana. The matter siionid bo cleared up at once. Dela^wl^ wnly breed content ot- for the ur^jusineaB HkemekHols of the legislatore-g^It is a waiter of n»gret that only eighf^of the Democratic (numbers of the hous$ fajrored loUtwiog the anglestione of GoVernoi Hotey—only eight who made ieslly seoou lary to public demand.

reporter chance J, recently, to

overhear an animated conversation which was being indulged in by several carriers of a Terre Hante paper and the remarks of one spirited young fellow were so pungent and smacked so unmis' takably of the truth, the scribe could not jtsist the temptation to annotate them. The tenor of this bright lad's expressions was about as follows: "Honestly, I've got some people on my route that make me tired. They seem to think because a newspaper carrier is a boy, he hasn't any soul, has no right to !K sensitive or have .his feelings hurt and right to just fold bis hands and smile like a booby while they say anything aud everything mean-^-say things that almost make him wonder what use there was in his ever being born into a world where boys have no rights grown people are bound to respect. I tell you, right now, fellows, I've got people on my route just like such freaks as tnese and they simply make me sick. Now, I've got one of the bigge&t routes in the city and you all know that. It almost runs east to Brazil and south to Sullivan county. A fellow cap't get over such a space in a minute, and yet there are people on that uverlasling route who have taken the pains to come up to the office and howl because I di tn't get their papers to them by a certain hour, when I was no more 'o blame than Little Lord Fauntleroy or Jack the Giant Killer. It made no difference if I got my papers late and got out of the offic6 an hour or so after time. I could run the soles off my shoes and almost break my neck getting aiy papers around in a hurry, these kickers would kick just the *ame and if I tried to explaiu, five chances to one they wouldn't make me understand they considered me a big,

I can keep the paper from blowing away. I tried holding it down with rocks but then he kicked all the harder because his paper got mashed and torn. The other night I threw his paper in the yard—or, at least, where the yard ought to be—and I'd scarcely got it out of my hands when a gust of wind caught it up and carried it more than hair a block away. I chassd it up into an alley, brought it back and put it right dpwn on the front steps. When I went around a day or two afterwards to collect, the man's wife took off two cents becanse that paper was muddy and torn a little. think for genuine cuesedness such peopleas that ought to be able to walk off with two of the biggest bakeries in town let alone taking the cake. Thank the Lord all my customers are not like these, but then "with some of my very best paying customers I had the poorest kind of luck".

He got to stealing saving machines and other stuff and is in jail. His family went away and were gone a week before I found it ont. tell you, fellowe, I don't know what you think about it, but my opinion is that people who take papers ought to be dead certain they are doing the right thing before they raise so much racket with boys who carry onpers.

Twisting about in every direction, but gradually mounting hijrher, the patient mules, guided by the. peons, moved steadily oh. As tbey rode.

At the foot of the central cone they came to a hut occupied by an old ludian and his wife. Stopping to get some water, the old man talked long and earnestly to Senor Noriega, yho, as he listened, became grayer and graver. ••It seems," he said, speaking to Mr. Gregson, "that old Juan here tells us he thinks thd mountain is not safe. He has hoard a good deal of noise lately, and the earthquakes hav.e been more numerous. Ho says, too. that it has opened into two small craters. Shall we go back?"

Mr. Gregson was more than half inclined to do so, but the unanimous protest of the younger members of the party overruled both himself and the senor, and they once more started up. It was noticed that Mr. Clarke rode as close to Miss Gregson as the trail permitted". This, how*rrwryr'r» Mfimir- *.\~i iftf**" arrivat some six weeks itefore.

Reaching the pass at last—a break in the high wall surrounding the old crater—a magnificent view lay before them. The basin of the volcano was .about a mile long and half a mild wide. Indescribably wild and rugged, the rocks of lava had been tossed about in the most extraordinary manner and with their clean, dark, glassy surfaces, sharp angles, and wonderful shapes, they looked like nothing the younger people had,,ever seen before.

Suddenly there seemed to be more light, arid turning they saw a column of lire shooting high into thu air. In spite of the danger, all stood still tor a moment. It disappeared, falling back into the basin, and a few moments afterward a thin, .brightlyred line appeared in the pass where they had been standing and bej?an to slowly creep down the mountain side. The lava had begun to flow! With a shudder Senor Noriega spoke in a low tone to the peons, and once more the party moved ahead. It was frightfully difficult work, the road was so bad and the light so poor.

Every one of them knew that if they did not get away before long, the burning lava would overtake them and they would perish horribly. No one fortunately thought of the idea which was parching- the lip9 and bringing an almost sickening feeling of fear to Senor Noriega—a shower of ashes. He know that might come any moment, and that from it there wa* no escape. Suddenly the mule r^iich Miss 1reason was riding gavo a lurch, and Herbert Clark slipped and fell into ono of tho crevices.

Tls*? party stopped and «aifed on him, but there was no answer. They could see him when the lightning' flashed, but lie was in a swoon or dead, he lay so stilL In a moment Julia was off her mule, and had untied the riata or raw-hide fastened her saddle. Tying it around her waist she told them to lower her down. Her father and Dr. Rodriguez began to object, but in a voice utterly unlike her own she told them sjae meant to go.

Placing a saddle on the sharp edge of the lava, so that the trope should .tot be cut, tbey lowered h«r down, and she, unfastening the rope, tied it aroud Herbert's Jjody and called to them to pull il up. retting him to the surface, they lowered It again for her, while Dr. Kodrhruei bandaged up his friend's head.

Nothing further occured until firm ground was reached again, but two months afterward a double weddfoff was celeorated at the vice-co&sul** boose*
