MOKNIMI KNTEKPIUSK," THURSDAY, .FKHHUAUY 16, 1911. Y r I 1 V The Old Man of Oragua A Story of Life In the West Indies. By MARY D. "ARKE.

Tbe niagaaine be bad been reading slipped through hla list less Angers and clattered to the floor. It waa tbe close of a bot day lu Torto Rico, one of thoe ateahttag tropical days that Is so like Itpred ecessor in every detail of climate and occupation that all parccpt'-'u of time ' la loot and one liven in a drvaai j hare of unreality. f Ralph Freeman lud livod !tjC.'w.ay for year, ever slui-e be had fa I leu heir to a small bausua plantation and left tbe State to carve a fortuue for himself. There bad ouue to him abun dant health, vers tytje money and lews happiness thatrTia, fcad expected, lie bad left behind him a broken engage- - Lillian, and aha had appeared to a cept the attentions of that rich cotton broker with complaceucy. When Ralph reproached ber matters had come so Swiftly tw bead that waa not until, he waa on the atcaincr bound for Tor to Rico that be realized be must In reality begin all over again. Jfow be bad been reading a maga ' sine story of a man lu tbe tropics, a auaa who waa separated from the girl be loved: how the girt, passing on a yacht, bad tossed bottle overboard, bottle containing a letter to tbe man. " It waa a pretty atory. a clever story, but a very unlikely thing to happen, thought Freeman moodily. He was situated much as that other man was, but there would never be any bottle or message for him! If Lillian bad " married tbe cotton broker It would not be strange If ab waa cruising In the . Caribbean waters, but that abe cared enough to send him a message of any sort b did not believe. Such things Bight happen la.atortes "There were glanta In the earth In those daya. he quoted cynically, just a his eye was arrested by tbe glitter C asalight on bottle dancing on the am close to the white beach. With FOOTD HIMSlLr HOLDIMO BUt EASUH. a bound he had reached the wooden talra, raced down them to the water's edge and then. Impatient of delay, dashed knee high Into tbe wavea and rescued the bobbing bottle. Empty It waa now, and he tossed It down on the pebbles with an angry laugh. Ha was tired of hla solitary exist ence; be longed Inexpressibly for the haunts of men. I'aya passed aud weeks slipped away in the dreamy ex istence on this tropic Ule. Tbe work on hla plantation required little aur Tislon, and tba negro hands appeared to idle tba long days through, and yet somehow tbe crops were harvested and shipped by mule team to tbe near est port where the fruit ateamers tooched. Ills one story office building waa a Uny affair, and one hour a day was ample to keep bis business cor respondence and accounts la terfoct order. Ills field ha ads lived In sat- huts somewhere about, and in this Isolated region be waa often call ad apoa to act as physician to the suf fering bodies of bis childlike neigh bors whea tba voodoo doctors failed to work a cure. ' Suddenly be waa aelzed with a deal- for home to see cities full of white men, to feel tbe hard pavement under bis feet, to be hemmed Id by cliffs of brick and atone, to bear the din of traffic and to participate In tbe light and gayety of scenes of pleasure. Dy traveling all night he conld catch the fruit steamer that In passing might drop him at Ban Juan. From there he eould take a ateamer for nOME. Now ha thought of home In capital letters.

The long whitewashed' building gleamed white In the moonlight; lb see was an expanse of molten goia tlx sky showed stars dimmed by lb full nioou riding nigh la tbe beaveue. There waa lb heavy scent of luscious frulta and flower. Ib rauk swell of vegetation, the peace of tbe land of i the palut, but tba cold cltlee of tba north were calling to mm, ami oe wa going going home!, Exhilarated, he turned and waved farewell to hi servants.

Then there broke from the nalma frimriur the Dlaula tloo a running dark form. man I B,,eediug in baste, aud Freeman's heart Mnk a little, because be uew the J signs. This messenger waa from oue In trouble. Some oue sick or dying needed him. "1 w ill uot go," he told himself fierce ly, but when tbe native had thrown himself at hia feet aud begged him to couie to his father Freeman found himself relenting. "Who la your father?" be asked to gain time, not that it muttered, for there was do caste among bis people. "The old man of Oragua:" cried the man. "If the master cornea uot be will die!" "Why, he Is the voodoo man! Well. no physician can cure himself. I'll go. rrive on. Domlulque, to Oragua They plunged Into the" forest rood, the messenger running beside, the cart. one hand resting on tbe shaft.

Among these- superstitious people be wss growing to believe In all aorta of signs-and rresen tlments, hs nlly swa re of It It did not occur to him now to turn away from the aick man. Go he must. If only to use bis scanty but practical knowledge of medicine to soothe pain or perba .effect a cure. Hia remedies were mostly tbe simple old fashioned ones be had learned from bis mother. Oragua lay over to tbe south, a tiny scattering of buts near tbe beach a few miles away from bla plantation. In going there be could not catch tbe fruit steamer. Missing that. It would be days before be might get another, un less he traversed many miles of rough roads to reach a railroad line. Me set tled despondently in bis seat, his mo mentary enthusiasm smothered by the pressing necessity of tbe moment.' lie discovered the old man sunk In a state of coma. He bad suffered a stroke of apoplexy, and there was nothing the young American could do. aave to apply simple remedies that would at least satisfy tbe wailing rel atives that be waa doing something. In fact, bis presence waa needless, bla sacrifice. In vain. . - Morning found him rloMiug the eyea of the old man of Oragua. who bad after all gone to the Great Physician to be cured spiritually as well as bod ily of bis ailments. When be had withdrawn from the but of mourning and Dominique had thrust In tbe cart a large basket of fruit that the grate ful relatives of the old man of Oragua had pressed upon Freeman tbe latter walked down to a little point of land that Jutted Into tbe sea. When ha emerged from a grove of palms Into the full sunlight he waa startled by the sight of a large steamer lying per bapa a quarter of a mile from a ho re. Two small launchea were putting oil from her, and another was almost un der bis very nose at the water's edge. Wild with excltemeut, be rushed away and called bis servant to bring his luggage. Then he intercepted the first boot, which bad Just landed a dozen tourists, men and women, wba looked at the sun browned American with friendly eyes. From the sailors Freeman learned that tbe vessel was the Trlposa. a tourist ateamer. cruising among tba islands. Her steering gear bad gone wrong off Oragua, and while it waa being repaired those passengers wbo desired It bad gone aabore. Tbe ateam er waa outward bound from New Tork and would make San Juan in the course of her trip. Tbey thought it likely that tbe captain would taka Freeman as a passenger. Delighted at this happy turn of fata which seemed to have been brougbl about by tbe old man of Oragua, Ralpb found infinite satisfaction In seeing bfc luggage stowed in the boat Then he gave final directions to Domlnlquo and bade blm farewell. Now the other launches landed tbeii tourists, and they, too, gazed at Free man as tbey streamed past. Suddenly hla heart Jumped madly and tbe blood raced through bla veins aa it bad not done alnce he bad last seen Lillian Wade. For there she waa, staring bnck with wondering eyes, starry with happinesa at seeing blm. - Forgetful of tbe cotton broker and bis possible relationship to Lillian, Ralph Freeman found himself holding ber bands and trying to appear con ventional before many curious eyes. At a little distance be saw an aston ished looking elderly woman wbo seem ed to be waiting for Lillian. "Oh, Ralpb! To think you should be here!" 8be was breathing quickly. "I was going to you-I'll tell you all about it later. Then you haven't for gotten me, and you have forgiven ma for being auch a bruter be fairly summered In his haste. I've been punished. Ralph, for my tj.- aha ...d humbly. r did not nre blt tor tb't man on,y w" raxed that you should doubt my ley- Ut In the least Coma and be Intro- with her. It Is all ao wonderful!"

The election' having gone' for im provements It Is to be hoped Mllwaukle will be "lifted out of the mud." There is no obstacle In the. way and no ex cuse why this town can't be put on a par with other growing suburbs of Portland. Of course there Is quite a difference of opinion aa to the streets Improvement should be made. This idea of digging out a trench In the middle of the road and throwing in a little gravel to sink out of sight, does not require much engineering skill, but tbe property owners have to dig down Just the same. It looks reason abhS to have the work done right In the first place, and If. aome of th i work done In other up to date towns would be studied It might prove a valuable lesson and it la to be hoped the present coterie of public official) will not spend the peoples' money for some unsatisfactory experimenting. It Is an easy thing to sit on a road roller and rock crusher, and draw four or five dollars a day, but It la another thing to make a good serviceable and economical street or road. The fol lowing la the result of votes cast: Street Improvements, yea, 94; no, 36. Shall we hold biennial elections, yea 87; no, 40. Shall Mllwaukle spend Its own rosd tax, yes, 108; no, 21. Bhill Mllwaukle Issue bonds for 15000 for sewer or atreet Improvements, yea 88; no, 89.

There will be a petition presented for the Improvement of Main and Washington streets. Several petitions are In circulation for atreet improvements and will be presented to the City Council at the next regular meeting. The effort of the Commercial Club In conjunction with the City Council to pava the way for atreet Improve mentg has-been crowned with euo ceaa. The charter amendment submitted to tbe voters at the election last Mon day carried with a Urge and hand some majority, which shows the people begin lo realise that Improvements are a necessity and we hope to aee a great change by the end of (he year.
