binds Nat by a solemn oath to deliver a
packago to Franklin Pierce, president of
the United States. Near Price's cabin
Nat sees the frightened face of a young
woman who disappears In the darkness,
leaving an odor of lilacs. It develops that
Nat's visit to the island is to demand set-
tlement of the king. Strang, for the look-
ing of his sloop by Mormons. Price shows
Nat the king's palace, and through a
window he sees the lady of the lilacs,
who Price says Is the king's seventh wife.

old woman in his arms and went on
boldly. He passed close to a thin line
of waiting men, saw the faint glint of
firelight on their rifles, and staggering
past them unchallenged with his
weight he Btopped for a moment to
look back. The effect was startling.
Beyond the three great fires that
blazed around the temple the clearing
was bathed in a sea of light; in its
concealment of giant trees the temple
was buried in gloom. From the gloom
hundred cool men might slaughter
five times their number charging
across that death square!
Nathaniel could not repress a shud
der as he looked. Screened behind
each of the three fires was a cannon
He figured that there were more than
a hundred rifles in that silent cordcn
of men. What was there on the oppo-
site side of the temple?
He turned with the old woman and
Joined the throng that was seething
about the temple doors. There were
women, children and old men, crush-
ing and crowding, fighting with panic-
stricken fierceness for admittance to
the thick log walls. Through the doors
there came the low thunder of count-
less voices pierced by the shrill cries
of little children. Foot by foot Na-
thaniel fought his way up the steps
At the top were drawn a dozen men
foruilag barriers with their rifles. One
of them shoved him back.
"Not you!" he shouted. "This Is
for the women!"
Nathaniel fell back, filled with hor-
ror. A glance bad shown him the vast
dimly lighted interior of the temple
packed to suffocation. What sins had
this people wrought that it thus feared
the vengeance of the men from the
mainland! He felt the sweat break
out upon his face as he thought of
Marion being in that mob, tired and
fainting with her terrible day's ex-
perience—perhaps dying under the
panic-stricken feet of those stronger
than herself. He hoped now for that
which at first had filled him with de-
spair—that Strang had hidden Marlon
himself; that Marlon had gone to the
castle—that Strang intended to make
her bis bride that night But did
Obadiah know that the castle had
been abandoned? Did he know that
the king's wives had sought refuge in
the temple, and did he know where
Marion was hidden? Nathaniel could
assure himself but one answer: Oba-
diah, struck down by his strange mad-
ness, was more ignorant than he him-
self of what had occurred at St. Jamw.
While he paused a heavy noise
arose that quickened his heart beats
and sent the blood through his veins
In wild excitement From far down
by the shore there came the roar of
cannon. It was closely follqwed by
second and third, and hardly was
the night shaken by their thunder
than a mighty cheering of men swept
up from the fire-rimmed coast The
battle had begun! Nathaniel leaped
out Into the glow of the great blazing
fire beyond the temple; he heard
warning shout as he darted past the
men; for an instant he saw their white
faces staring at him from the firelight
—heard a second shout, which he
knew was a command—and was gone.
Half a dozen rifles cracked behind him
and a yell of Joyful defiance burst
from his throat as the bullets hissed
over his head. The battle had begun!
Another hour and the Mormon king-
dom would be at the mercy of the
avenging host from the mainland—
and Marlon would be his own for
pver! He heard again the deep rum-
ble of a heavy gun pud from its sullen
detonation he knew that it was fired
from a ship at sea. A nearer crash of
returning fire turned him into a de-
serted street down which he ran wild-
ly, on past the last houses of the
town, until he came to the foot of a
hill up which he climbed more slowly,
panting like a winded animal.
From Its top he could look down
upon the scene of battle. To the east-
ward stretched the harbor line with
its rim of fires. A glance showed
him that the fight was not to center
about these. They had served their
purpose, had forced the mainlanders
to seek a landing farther down the
coast. The light of dawn had already
begun to disperse the thick gloom of
night, and an eighth of a mile below
Nathaniel the Mormon forces were
left of the Mormons. Half way. ana
he stopped as a thundering cbeer
swept up from the shore. The main-
landers had started toward the hill!
Without rank, without order—shout-
ing their triumph as they came they
were rushing blindly into the arms of
the ambush! A shriek of warning left
Nathaniel's lips. It was drowned in
a crash of rifle fire. Volley after vol-
ley burst from that shadowy stretch
of plain. Before the furious fire the
van of the mainlanders crumpled into
ruin. Like chaff before a wind those
behind were swept back. Apparently
they were flying without waiting to
fire a shot! Nathaniel dashed down
into the plain. Ahead of him the Mor-
mons were charging in a solid line,
and in another moment the shore bad
become a mass of fighting men. Far
to the left he saw a group of the
mainlanders running along the beach
toward the conflict If he could only
Intercept them—and bring them into
the rear! Like the wind he sped to
cut them off, shouting and firing his
pistol. He won by a hundred yards
and stood panting as they came to-
ward him. Dawn had dispelled the
mist-gloom and as the mainlanders
drew nearer he discerned in their lead
a figure that brought a cry of Joy

creeping slowly along the shore. The
pale ghostly mistiness of the sea hung
like a curtain between him and what
was beyond, and even as he strained
his eyes to catch a glimpse of the
avenging fleet a vivid light leaped out
of the white distance, followed by the
thunder of a cannon. He saw the head
of the Mormon line falter. In an in-
stant it had been thrown into con-
fusion. A second shot from the sea—
storm of cheering voices from out
of that white chaos of mist—and the
Mormons fell back from the shore in
a panic-stricken, fleeing mob. Were
those frightened cowards the fierce
fighters of whom he had heard so
much? Were they the men who had
made themselves masters of a king-
dom in the land of their enemies—
whose mere name carried terror for a
hundred miles along the coast? He
vas stupefied, bewildered. He made
10 effort to conceal himself as they
approached the hill, but drew his pis-
tol, ready to fire down upon them as
they came. Suddenly there was
change. So quickly that he could
jcarcely believe his eyes the flying
Mormons had disappeared. Not
man was visible upon that narrow
plain be* #een the hill and the sea.
Like a huge covey of quail they had
droppej to the ground, their rifles lost
in that ghostly gloom through which
the voices of the mainlanders came
In fierce cries of triumph. It was mag-
nificent! Even as the crushing truth
of what it all meant came to him, the
fighting blood in his veins leaped at
the sight of it—the pretended effect
of the shots from sea, the sham con-
fusion, the disorderly flight the won-
derful quickness and precision with
which the rabble of armed men had
thrown Itself into ambush!
Would the mainlanders rush Into
the trap? Had some keen eye seen
those shadowy forms dropping
through the mist? Each Instant the
ghostly pall that shut out vision sea-
ward seemed drifting away. Nathan-
iel's staring eyes saw a vague shape
appear in It an indistinct dirt-gray
blotch, and he knew that It was a
boat Another followed, and then an-
from his lips.
"Nell!" he shouted. "Nell—"
He turned as Marion's brother
darted to his side.
"This way—from behind!"
The two led the way, side by side,
followed by a dozen men. A glance
told Nathaniel that nothing much less
than a miracle could turn the tide of
battle. Half of the mainlanders were
fighting In the water. Others were
struggling desperately to get away In
the boats. Foot by foot the Mormons
were crushing them back, their battle
cries now turned into demoniac yells
of victory. Into the rear of the strug-
gling mass, firing as they ran, charged
the handful of men behind Captain
Plum and Neil. For a little space the
king's men gave way before them and
with wild cheers the powerful fisher-
men from the coast fought their way
toward their comrades. Many of them
were armed with long knives; some
had pistols; others used their empty
rifles as clubs. A dozen more men
and they would have split like a
wedge through the Mormon mass.
Above the din of battle Nathaniel's
voice rose In thundering shouts to the
men in the sea, and close beside him
he heard Nell Bhrieklng out a name
between hlB blows. Like demons
they fought straight ahead, slashing
with their knives. The Mormon line
was thinning. The mainlanders had
turned and were fighting their way
back, gaining foot by foot what they
had lost. Suddenly there came a ter-
rific cheer from the plain and the hope
that had flamed in Nathaniel's breast
died out as he heard it He knew what
It meant—that the Mormons at St
James had come to reinforce their
comrades. He fought now to reach
the boats, calling to Neil, whom he
could no longer see. Even in that mo-
ment he thought of Marion. His only
chance was to escape with the others,
his only hope of wresting her from the
kingdom lay In his own freedom. He
had waited too long. A crushing blow
fell upon him from behind and with a
last cry to Neil he sank under the
trampling feet Indistinctly there
came to him the surging shock of the
fresh body of Mormons. The din
about him became fainter and fainter
as though he was being carried rapid-
ly away from It; shouting voices came
to him in whispers, and deadened
sounds, like the quick tapping of a
finger on his forehead, were all that
he heard of the steady rifle fire that
pursued the defeated mainlanders in
their flight.
After a little he began struggling back
into consciousness. There was a split-
ting pain somewhere in his head and
he tried to reach his hand to it
"You won't have to carry him," he
beard a voice say. "Give him a little
wuter and he'll walk."

Carrollton, Mo.—To have served as
senator from three states and as gov-
ernor of a fourth Is 8 distinction that
has come to only one man in the his-
tory of the United States. And yet
for nearly 30 years that man, Gen.
James H. Shields, whose military rec-
ord was even more illustrious than
his record as a statesman, lay In an
almost forgotten and unmarked grave.
He was the first territorial governt."
of Oregon, he served a full term aa
senator from Illinois, he was one of
the first two senators from Minnesota
and he served out an unexpired term
as senator from Missouri. He went
into the Mexican war a brigadier gen-
eral and served with such distinction
that his sword found ready acceptance
and he was commissioned a brigadier
general at the outbreak of the Civil
war.
General Shields served four states
and his adopted country (he was Irish
born) both faithfully and well, and
doubtless had public attention been
called earlier to the neglect of his
grave In St. Mary'B cemetery here.
Congress would have been quicker to
show, by a monument, its apprecia-
tion of his services. However, when
Representative "Rucker, of Missouri,
introduced a bill at the last session of
congress to appropriate |3,000 for that
purpose, it was quickly passed and
the monument was recently unveiled.
General Shields was one of the
many young Irishmen who came to
America in the generation that pre-
ceded the Civil war and gave their
adopted country cause to feel proud
of them. He was born \p County
Tyrone, December 12, 1810. About the
age of 16 young Shields emigrated to
the United States and finished his edu-
cation. He studied law and began
practice at Kaskaskla, 111., in 1832.

In 1839 he was elected state auditor
and in 1843 was appointed Judge of
the Supreme court of Illinois. He held
the latter office two years and resign-
ed to accept the appointment of com-
missioner of the general land office In
Washington.
Served In Two Wars.
At the outbreak of the Mexican war
Shields was given a brigadier's com-
mission and commanded, first a brig-
ade of Illinois troops, later command-
ing a brigade composed of marines
and New York and South Carolina
volunteers. He served under Gen.
Zachary Taylor, Gen. Winfleld Scott
and General Wool and was wounded
at Cerro Gordo and in the stormiug
of Cbapultepec. For gallantry in the
latter action he was breveted a major
general. General Shields wss mut-
tered out of service in 1848 and short-
ly afterwards was appointed the first
territorial governor of Oregon.
While serving in that office he was
elected senator from Illinois and
served out his full term. After quit-
ting the senate he moved to Minne-
sota, where he speedily becsme prom-
inent In politics and, on the admission
of that state, he was elected senator
