New ULM, Mimi, Jan. 29-At three
O'Clock this afternoon, in the presence
OF not very large, but distinguished
crowd, Judge Webber sentenced Coun-
ty Attorney Madigan, of Redwood
county. convicted of perjury, to three
years and three months in penal servi-
tude at the Saltwater prison. Attorney
Peck first made motion for the arrest
of judgment ON the ground that the
indictment was bad, but the motion
was quickly overruled, after which the
attorney stepped to the bar, and SEN
tence was pronounced. Judge Web
Der was very much affected over pro-
nouncing sentence on an attorney who
has practiced before him for many
years, yet he pronounced sentence
recognizing no difference in. men. A
motion for new trial was then made
and will be argued on Feb. Goth, and
the execution of sentence will be
stayed until that time, and the at

''Mightn't the have missed the trail
in the darkness, IND having no ranch
lights to guide them got lost somewhere
out there?''
"Not likely, sir. Shure, there'd be
a squad Of the troops and half a dozen
old hands with 'em if it was Harvey's.
This has come from the pass, and it,
won't be long before they'll be coming
ahead. You'll need your carbine then. !
D-n that man Mullan! Can't I wake
him yet?''
Apparently not. Even the we'll di-
rected kick only evoked groan. TAX
ing couple of carbines, Feeny returned
to the major, silently handing him one
of the weapons, saying, It's loaded, sir,
and here's more cartridges. -
Then again both men listened in
tently.
No sound now. The hammering had
ceased. One, two minutes they wait
ed, then nearer at hand than before,
clear, sharp and distinct, out from the
darkness came the unmistakable crack
of whip. At the sound Feeny knelt.
Click, click! went the hammer of his
carbine to full cock. Another moment
of breathless silence. Then the muffled
sound of hoofs, the creak of wagon
springs, then voice:
1t can't be far away. Ride ahead
and see if you can't rout somebody
OUT
And then Feeny's challenge again
rang out on the still night air, followed
instantly by muffied sound of stir and
excitement in the ranch behind them.
"Who comes there?''
Hello! What's that? Who's that? :?
Is that Moreno?"
"Who comes there, say? Halt! or
I'll fre!''
"For Gods sake, don't fire, man!
We've got ladies here"
''What ladies'? Who are you any
how? Quick!''
George Harvey's daughters of Tue
son. I'm his son.
'God be praised!'' shouted Feeny,
springing to his feet and rushing for
ward. Are they all -unharmed?
Where did you overtake them?"
"Overtake whom? What in blazes
are you talking about?" queried a tall,
slender fellow, bending down from his
saddle. "Who are you?'
Sergeant Feeny of the cavalry, and
here's the major just back of me.''
"Major who?''
"Major Plummer-him you was talk
ing with this morning when you came
for help, answered Feeny, his voice
tremulous with excitement. Already
he was beginning to see light.
"Why, I've never seen Major Plum
mer nor any other major today. The
only troops I met were Sergeant Wing
and his guard at the pass just after
nightfall. Have you met the Apaches?
You saw the signal of course"
$Signal, yes, but devil an Apache.

draft wagon and Concord piloted by the the
real Ned Harvey and conveying his sisters
Ruth and Fanny pass by the station on the
way to Morenos. The signal officer in charge.
Sergeant Wing, has met the girls in Yumr,
and after greeting them and whispering in
young Harvey ears the rumors about Indian
raids starts to climb the signal hill. He is
suddenly assaulted, lassoed and dragged to a
tent, bound and gagged. At the same time
the signal pile of dry fuel bursts into flames.
At the sight of the signal beacon Major Plum
mer sends second party of soldiers out to
rescue the Harvey girls, leaving only Ser

and the stupetied troopers to guard the safe.
