Two Other FIlipinosThe two other Filipinos residing in

Washington also attend Columbian Jawschool and contemplate finishing a threeyears course Their name Is Torres pro-nounced with a roUimc r so long SIMaccented as to sauna Hke a stick beingpulled against a picket fence

These two young men resemble themore familiar Chinese type At home theyare considered giants In stae for the Fil-ipinos as a race are small in stature butthe taller one is not six feet in

last September theytook an apartment with Mr Abreu Theolder one could speak a little English butthe younger one could not under-stood it fairly well but Instated on hisbrother acting as aa Interpreter

Forced to With KiiKllNUIt was soon apparent that at that rate

he would mak no prcgress inr Englishwhatever The eWer Torrea and Mr-Abrcu gave him the alternative of mak-ing more effort in English or of to

city wherehe would hear no Spanish and wouldhave to struggle with English in orderto make his wants known Theroan tried hard but found he could notget away from his habit of talking Span-ish to his comrades tend having themcarry on English conversation Atcut he is alone in a strangehouse and sees his brother only at

It seemed as if the woman were regardInn herself perpetuated in the white claythe two were so nearly womenof lIberty The wild sweeps of the Westshowed in each clean curve of the living

Fostered by freedom by freshair by wild runs over the prairies shehad grown to be such a woman as oneseldom sees in this age The animal

tecutal beauty in her face She stood inearnest and critical study of the white

sure with something ef a smile andsonethln of a tear meeting in the ex-pression Of her features

It is cramped she said t3 herself 1do not like it here It seems to ask mypity and I feel as though I could pityit inanimate thing though it is It seemsto be a symbol of myself such as my lifeis now cramped and narrow I like ituettfcr as It is an the dome of the bigwhite Capitol looking over the beautifulcity and across the river to the hills

I would like to see it out on thebroad yralrles as free as I once wasBut how foolish of me to have tears Inmy eyes for a mere piece of clay Just be-cause it wu meant for freedom and isnarrowed down to walls I must be get-ting on to that afternoon recital it meansa dinner and a breakfast for me andI art payment of place te my my headOh Ralgh did you think 1 would cometo such a hopeless place while you livedI dare not think of would not haveyou know it for all the world you areunhappy enough God knows

Alcyone Prosper was the daughter ofthe keeper of a prairie hotel Her peoplewere common well folks but Itwas one of the Queer tricks of the fatesthat she should come among them beau-tiful highminded sad with the tire ofgenius burning in her young soul Thedivine light did not come upon her alt atonce It smoldered long and then brokeinto flames The prairie was her firstlove It was the only thing that made hernfe at all worth the living She wa a

When she was quite y ung she used torecite and dance for the e who chancedin at her fathers pta e As she grewolder she seemed to make this a part ofher life and the spirit wKh which shedisclaimed would turn the hearts of herlisteners cold coarsegrained as theywere or make them hobble with lire

the hour one of the actors told her thather remteri g of Curfew Shall Not RingTonight snowed that she was a born ac-tress and would some day be a great one

A change over her She workedharder than ewer but scarcely spoke tothe people about her She never recitedfor her fathers guests they eared forcommon things She studied late atnight During the day when her hours offreedom she took rides on hermustang with a volume of Shakespeare-tied to the saddle Over the plains to thebluffs beyond site would Hy ambitionbeating like some wild bird Within lintbrain and her young insect TIMMuff was now her stage the long grassesand the cropping herds her audteitco andsite was a star actress

When she was twentyone shehere parents for the small sum of moneyher grandfather had left leer They gaveit with little protest thtoktfic she neededit because of Iter promise to marry one ofthe young men who called on her quitefrequently They seldom ftueeitoaed herIf she worked hard that was all theyasked of her She was their propertyuntil she married or reached the age oftwentyone They had other children allof whom they regarded m the light ofhelpers not children to love anti cherts

A few days after Alcyone received hermoney she disappeared The man whomthey thought she would marry knewnothing of her whereabouts He toldthem too that the girl was toe highstrung for hiss whoa he married he saWit would be one who did sot expect to re-ceive tiny better treatment or be keptany better thin the rest af squaws

After a time a letter came from herShe was in Chicago studying for thestage Her people stormed at first hutcould d nothing hot awaIt events Herletters grew less frequent and they

sad gone on the road She was awaythree years TIteR sine came hack pe tless changed and took up her oM workof washing dishes and waiting OK Uteomen

She had learned during liar absence todespise everything about her old home butth prairies and the free things thatroamed them She took her position as aservant with protest in her hot youngheart but faced it welt before her audi-ence She had learned to school herselfin her lessons of the stage She did notspeak of lovers or conquests but yet noman dare approach her Her manner wasenough to freeze the most ardent admirer

Yet when aH deemed her cold and without hoart the was then moot deeply lostin the love dream that had come to herduring her absence SIte longed for theman of that passing dream she lookedfor hint yet claW herself for doing so forit was wrong But the prairies were sacold that winter life was so unkind Wasit wrong to be s d when he did come

One day in the midst of a snowstormthat swept ovtd the plains a men cameto the hotel H was fromhandsome fellow who said he had misledhis way in the storm He stayed athotel for a week was a cheerful eonspanto a d won his way the heartsof all the rough prairie people He seem-ed to wta Alcyones heart too as nonebefore had esc won k They were asIntimate se If they land known eaefcother halt their lives They rend togetherover the roaring lire white the northwinds whistled out of doors they

books and she recited for hint ttdthose around her The home people wereelectrified What action sfc had howshe made them shiver and weep and thensmile again through tears that sham-ed them Winy was it had failed whydid she come back to them They couldnot understand

After the goodlooking stranger left sinegrew snore moody thaa ever Sine tooklonger rides on her mustang spoke lessto those around her and In return receiv-ed scant courtesy for they imagined thatshe was proud and would be pleasant tonon but city fetks She endured thatlife for a Httie white and then at thesuggestion of th local CoBsrcoomanswife she weaL to Wasbtrgton She wasintroduced into this ladys social circlerecited at her receptions she tried toteach physical culture and gave a fewlectures on the woman Question She met-a great many people who liked her andtried to help her but those who were themost inclined to do so were the least ableSine was greatly admired by the Congress-man and by some of his colleagues whomlie presented to her thinking that theymight be able to use influence in herbehalf She had a hard rough time
