fight. While the issue was more on
local affairs, enough is known, from
the personnel of the delegates elected,

NAVAL CODE BOOKS
ARE WELL GUARDED
(Journal Special Serrice.)
Washington, March 29. The sensation
created in British naval and government
circles by the recent loss of the signal
book of the cruiser Prince George while
that vessel was lying In the River Tagus,
called attention to the aupreme Impor
tance of such books and ths necessity
of their being well guarded. Investiga
tion shows that on vessels of the United
States navy special precautions are taken
to prevent the code books getting lost
The books are kept in the chart room
in a specially constructed metal case
bored with holes. The books themselves
have lead attached to them, the idea be
ing that If a ship was in danger of
being captured or lost the officer In com
mand, bv throwing: the signal box of
books overboard, would insure their not
falling into Improper hands. When the
watch Is changed on board ship at
tention la always called to the signal
books, so that with all these precautions
it would seem impossible for them to be
lost very long without being missed.

Copywrlted, 1904, by W. IV Hearst
It was a stormy winter day. -the sky
wss covered with . threatening bluish
black clouds, and the snow, which cov
ered the ground many feet deep,
squeaked under my feet as I, deeply In
thought, .walked across tne field, gun
In hand.
Far away In the distance a little vil
lage was dimly visible. Its little snow
covered cottages clustered around the
parish church. '
Suddenly I stopped at the sight of
tracks . in the snow crossing my path.
I was surprised at this, for It was very
early snd the tracks were evidently
fresh. But there they were, tracks of
a dainty woman's feet which evidently
had hard work In keeping up with those
of an unusually large man.
- Hardly knowing why I followed them,
and. studying them closely, I came to the
conclusion that ths woman had tried
to run away from her companion sev
eral times. The tracks made by the
woman were so faint that where the
snow was frosen hard her feet had left
no Impression whatever, while those of
the man. from the way in which he had
dug his heels through even the hardest
crust, seemed to show that ho strongly
determined to carry out a set purpose,
and in one or two places he had struck
the snow hard with a heavy cane. Prob
ably the two lovers had nad a quarrel.
Why I thought they were lovers I do
not know, though in one place they had
stopped, facing one another, probably to
exchange a kiss or two. I could plainly
see how the woman had been standing
on tiptoe aa If to reach up to her taller
companion, and his heels were dug down
deeped than ever.
Then they had continued their walk
for some distance, then suddenly the
tracks made by the dainty shoes disap
peared and from that place only those
of the man were visible. Had the poor
little thing become tired, and had hs
taken her Into his arms and earrled nerT
If so she had soon recovered, for a few
hundred yards further .on the little
tracks appeared once morm,
From this place the tracks ran very
close together, as If the man had had
his srm around the girl's waist and al
most carried her. A few minutes after
they muatfrhave stopped. He had leaned

was young and buoyant and easily In

deep hole In the enow. .The girt had
stood two paces away, and the tracks
of the little shoes looked hesitating, ner
vous, nnhappy. .
What could he have said to herT Sev
eral times she had approached htm, but
he had not moved, only digging his cane
deeper in the snow. Once she had fled
hurriedly a little distance only to turn
back. Then they had walked on. but no
longer close together, the girl evidently
following the man. Z could see how,
furious hs must have been, his cane
had struck deep furrows in the snow.
.Then she must have fallen down on
her knees before htm. only to be thrown
aside, and suddenly he nad struck out
toward the village while she had walked
on slowly and hesitating-, but not long.
Suddenly she must have made up her
mind and rushed onward toward tn
dark woods. I followed them, deter
mined to unravel the mystery, through
the heavy blackberry brambles which in
one place had torn her skirt. A small
blue rag was still clinging to , thorny
branch. . . '
Among the tall trees she had once
mora hesitated, only to rush on to the
very edge of a deep precipice. Far. far
down below I could see the deep moun
tain torrent rushing among Immense
rocks. Here she had stopped, hut never
turned back, and from beiow I could
hear the roar of the Icy, rushing waters,
which kept their secret to themselves.
I ran back to the place wnere the two
had parted and foUowed the deep tracks
of the man to the village. It was hard
to track him there: many other feet had
left their Imprint In the snow, but Z fol-,

Suddenly the Tloor was opened and a
young, plump peasant woman peei'ed
out. her eyes scanning the street la the
direction from which I had com.
"It la not her," I heard her say.
Hey young., sensuous face was flushed
as If it wss painted and somebody's
hand was clutching her plump arm.
A young, handsome peasant pushed
her aside, discovered my eyes looking
at him with suspicion and hatred and
without a word he caught her around
the waist and almost csrried her Inside,
slamming the door behind him.
And suddenly the whole drama of the
tracks tn the snow was clear to me. .
