PERFECT PANDEMONIUN OF DENIALs
OF this proposition from the Republicans
caused a cessation of the proceedings for
some minutes and then the judge went on !:
1--WE object to any compromises; either &C
cept Us or fire Us out"
Then, after hopping the perspiration
from his head, which ran in perfect rivu-
let's, the judge subsidized.
Judge Mcbride here arose and said that
charges and slurs had been made against
him, but he did not deem the present the
proper time and place to refute them,
as, if his acts were questioned, 1t
was the national committee who had the
right to investigate and decide the matter
The above is only an imperfect account
of the proceedings, as they were not taken
down in short hand, and very frequently
the loud huzzas from the street drowned
the utterances of the speakers. The ques-
tional will be reported upon to-day by the
subcommittee. The address OF Judge
Goodwin did not make much of an impress
sion and even his friends were surprised
at the meagre preparation Of the Liberal
side of the case. After the hearing, Frank
Cannon asked Judge Goodwin If ne had
ever head that Brigham Young was dead.

a terrible effect
"But | hate him." he said; he

You are too near your end to
think OF that now," said Grace
Think not Of vengeance, but rather
OF the fate of your own soul. lie

truth
Those who had the prisoner in
charge, allowed him to approach the
bed. They began to think that
they might be mistaken, and that
Rupert Gray might after all be in
nocent.
Il had SAID that living or dead, |
would have vengeance ON Rupert
Gray cried the dying man, half
rising of his own strength. But

truth from me. As you say, |

and to save it, he shot me down.

lie had uttered his last words on
earth. With deep groan and a
convulsive movement. his spirit
passed away.
Grace WilIoughby had not arriv-
ed a moment too soon.
IldlI lllcOunClOuS she was borne
out in the arms Of Rupert Gray, the
man whom she had saved. Her
errand was accomplished, and with
it her strength had deserted her.
There is but little more to add.
In due time, Rupert Gray and Grace
were married; but all through their
lives they never forgot the latter's
ride, and how all their happiness
depended upon it; and in the midst
of their joy they would sometimes
tremble at the formers narrow es-
cape from an ignominious death.
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1892-11-16

story but it had little weight with
that of the wounded mans.
A man who is face to face with
death would not dare TO tell an UNI
truth, they reasoned, while guilty
one would try of course to make his
case as clear as possible.
Such was the tale that was
brought to the ears of Grace Will
loughby, and in an instant her
heart told her that the wounded
man was the guilty one. To reach
him before he died, and make him
confess the truth, was the reason
why she was riding at such head
long speed. On, on she went, and
at last the house lay before her in
which her fate, would he decided.
If she came too late, the doom of
Rupert Gray was certain.
Luke Haskell must speak; must
tell the truth before he should pass
away.
The house was reached, and be-
fore the door the pale rider refined
up her steed. A man came to the
entrance with solemn look upon
his face.
Am too late? Is he dead? ?"
she asked, as she sprang unaided to
the earth.
lie still lives, but is almost gone.
1t is Il terrible thing, Miss Grace; |
do not see how Rupert Gray could
have murdered him III cold blood.
| would not wonder if, when Luke
Haskell breatheS his last, they
strung his murderer upon this tree
at once
"lle did not mean to kill him.
He never sought to take his life,
unless some assault was made upon
his own. | know the two men
well. Luke Haskell must say that
he is innocent, or he can never die
in peace. Show me to him at once.
To me, he shall tell the truth"
The man turned and entered The
house, and Grace followed him. 1t
was fearful sight that met her
eyes, III that low. humble room.
Upon low bed lay the wounded
man, and it needed no experienced
eye to see that a few minutes at the
most was all that there was left of
this life.
Not far away from him was the
prisoner, closely guarded by vigilant,
resolute men. Only one glance did
Grace throw in his direction, and
then she bent over the bed on
which lay the dying man.
With start he recognized her,
dim although his eyes already were
by the approaching shadows of
death.
Grace he said, why are you
here? You cast me off. Why do
you care whether live or die"
II came to see that justice was
done she answered, III firm tone.
Luke Haskell, you cannot die with
a lie upon your soul. You know,
and ! know why it was that you
sought to take his life. Confess
that he is innocent. Dare you face
your God with lie upon your soul
and the blood of an innocent man
calling after you?'
Apparently there was II terrible

Chat had he been possessed of COM
mon intelligence he must have seen
that they were distastful to her.
lie had seen this, and it had filled
his heart with hot and angry pas
sions. Still it had made him all
the more determined to accomplish
his ends.
But he had failed; as after all he
feared, yes, even knew that he
should. Another was preferred to
him. His suit was rejected, and
there was nothing for him to do,
but to submit.
But he would not. Rupert Gray
should never succeed where he had
failed. He swore it with the bitter
passions of his disappointment rag
ing i'll his heart. He would take
his life, if in no other way it could
be prevented.
A terrible message had been
brought to the girl riding SO fierce
and headlong away.
The message said that Luke Has
kell lay dying, with a bullet lodged
in his breast. This was terrible
but with it was coupled other infor-
nation that struck like a knife to
her heart.
1t is said that the hand of Rupert
Gray was the one that had done the
fatal deed. The wounded man per-
sisted in the story of his rivals
guilt, and the officers of the law
had seized upon him, and he was
now held in the same house in which
lay the sufferer, whose life was fast
ebbing away.
The story he told wars different
from that of him who now stood
face to face with death.
He had met him unsuspicious of
danger, or of the hatred that rank
led in his heart towards him. 1t
was a lonely spot. No one was in
sight, nor was there house visible
from this point.
He would have passed him with
a mere salutation, had he not thrown
himself directly in his path, ex-
claiming as he did so:
Rupert Gray, have waited for
you, you have crossed my path, and
the world is not wide enough for
both of us. You or | will never
leave this spot alive"
As he said this, he drew Il reyol-
yer and aimed it at the breast of his
rival. BY sudden movement, he
sprang aside, and the bullet whistled
harmlessly past his head.
Another instant, and the click of
a lock fell upon his ear.
He saw that he must endeavor to
protect himself, or be shot down in
his tracks.
He drew a pistol and both fired
at the same moment. He was UNI
scratched, but his would-be-murder-
er sank to the earth with a wound
in his breast, which could not fail
to prove fatal. He was kneeing
over him, endeavoring to stop the
blood which flowed from the wound,
when others came upon the scene,
and with death staring him in the
face, Luke Haskell accused him of
having attempted to take his life in
cold blood. Rupert Gray told his

VALUABLE TIMBER LAMB
An Entry in Western Choteau County Car
ceIed by the government

An Entry in Western Choteau County Can
celed by the Government.
Basil Micheau made presumption cash
entry May -, 1886, for the ne4 of section
20. t IA, n r IA ". situated in the western
part of Choteau county. Special Agent M.
j. Haley was detailed to investigate the
entry and reported. alleging the land to be
about twenty-five acres prairie and the bal
ance fine timber land. He also reported
that the claimant was in possession, that
none of the timber had been cut, and that
the logging camp of the Montana Improve
ment company, their barns and blacksmith
shop were on the land, and that the claim
ant was employed by the company when he
made the entry. Acting on this report.
July %, 1887, the entry was hold for can
collation., and in November, 1887, the Hell
ena land office reported the claimant had
been duly notified of the cancellation. and
that the time had expired without his taking
any action in the matter. Then the entry
was formally Cancelled in the general land
Office.
August 81, 1892. George L. Hammond,
transferree, transmitted ar application to
the general land office for the re. ~instate-
ment of the entry, and asking for a patent.
Hammond in an affidavit accompanying the
application. said he purchased from Basil
Micheau the land In question. March 2S,
1000, pdN III Jill EJDo, aC llSkCu
that at the time of the purchase and for a
long time previous, Micheau had been in
peaceable possession of the land, and that
Micheau made presumption cash entry for
the land. That ten years afterwards the
land was { anBferred to Hammond for a
valuable consideration, and that he (Ham-
mond) had Just learned that Micheau's en-
try had been cancelled. Hammond, also
says that at the time of the cancellation he
WAS the owner and in actual possession of
the land, that he never had notice the land
was held for cancellation, that he believes
Mlcheau never knew of the cancellation,
and that he has tried to find Micheau, but
without avail.
The COMMISSIONS savs the papers in
the case disclose the fact that Micheau was
notified of the cancellation of his entry
July %, 1887. by registered letter addressed
to Wallace. Montana Territory, the post
office address given by him in his final
proof papers and that the letter was re-
turned unclaimed after advertisement. and
upon this evidence of service the entry
was cancelled by letter OF Jan. ID. 1888.
The commissioner says it does not appear
that M WAS u transferee of record at
the date when the entry WAS held 70 can
collation., and hence he was not entitled to
notice of any proceedings adverse to the
entry, but II does appear that Hammond
did not acquire any interest in the entry
till March q, 1883. two months subsequent
to the order Of the cancellation, The COM
missioner therefore denies his application
for the reinstatement of the entry.
