It was but few minutes after break
fast when Mrs. Bolton told Mr.. Bolton
that he would have to send for a locksmith
because the lock on the library door was
broken
You'd better go for him right away
said Mrs. Bolton.
But Mr.. Bolton was "handy man

kit of tools scattered around him, ordered
his son to go to the hardware store and

Meantime Mrs. Bolton ran out to the
drug store for some arnica, for her hus-
band had bruised his finger while expert
menting with the lock.

Bolton as she left.
CHAPTER ".
It was about z o'clock in the evening
when Mr.. Bolton, with rent in one
trouser leg and his face covered with
Crime, arose angrily, and throwing down
his tools ordered Johnny to go for a lock-
smith.
Somebody's been tampering with that
lock, or I'd have fixed it!'' he said, glanc-
ing with angry suspicion and reproach at
each member of the family in turn.
Then he sat down and glanced over the
bills from the hardware store, which in
cluded 81 for a chisel, 90 cents for screw
driver and so cents for two files. In addi-
ton, there was 20 cents for arnica, and it
would cost IS for new pair of trousers
and at least IS to repair the gouged places
in the door.

Five minutes after the locksmith s boy
came he was rafting the key in the lock
to show that it worked all right.

times loses its patience-as, for instance,
in the following trying case:
An energetic and muscular matron who,
in company with a friend, was engaged in
some holiday shopping, found herself

was clean gone Then she retaliated with
a dig of her elbow, aimed at one of her
tormentors.

check up the treasurer's books. Senator
Scott (also one OF the regents) said he
didn't think there was much demand for
the office, but favored it. Senator Thtch-

AUSTRALIAN BALLOTLAW AMENDED
A Bill Which Makes Several Small
Changes in the One Now Operative.
The senate devoted considerable time
late yesterday considering a special bill
prepared as substitute for three bills,
aimed to remedy several defects in the
Australian ballot law as at present in
force. The senate bill takes the matter
of printing ballots from the county
clerk and places it in the hands of the
county commissioners. A maximum
rate for election printing is also fixed.
There are several changes with regard
to sealing defective or other ballots The
whole bill is aimed to correct little de-
tails that after two years trial have been
found not to work in harmony.

the establishment of such a court it is

be objection.

opposed the report of the committee on
the floor of the house because the people
of a division elect judge who passes

Says She Didn't.
Robert Pigg appeared at police head
quarters Sunday evening and excitedly
told how Mrs. Bessie Huston, a can
vasser who boarded at the St Nicholas
hotel where he worked, had robbed him
CT $40 in cash. He wanted Mrs. Huston
arrested
The chief of police went to the hotel
and saw the woman. She was very badly
frightened, but protesting her Innocence,
offered to give $40 if they would let the
case drop. She finally insisted on the
chief taking the money, but it has been
returned to her.
Mrs. Huston tried to get the county at
torney to issue a warrant for Pigg for
eonfdencing, but it was thought the
case is not strong enough.
A purse containing large sum was
found on Eighth street Saturday even

NO CONVICT COAL TO SELL.
The House Recommends a Bill to Use 1t
for State Purposes Only.

The House Recommends a Bill to Use It
for State Purposes Only.
A bill about six lines in length pro-
voked discussion at least sixty minutes
long in the house last night 1t related
to the mining of coal by the convicts in
the state mines and was introduced at
the behest of the outside miners. The
committee of the whole recommended it
for passage by close vote.
It provides that it shall be unlawful to
mine coal at the state coal mine at Lam
sing, except for state and charitable in
situations and other charitable purposes,
and for the personal use of such persons
as purchase direct from the mines by the
wagon load.
Provided, That the act shall not be
held or construed to affect existing con-
tracts for coal at such mine.
Several members opposed the bill just
as soon as they realized what it meant
Mr. Marshall of Rice county said he was
informed that if the bill became a law
the state would lose 100000 which it
now receives for coal sold on the outside
market. Mr.. Beekman said that while
the bill was in the interests of the coal
miners who worked for their living there
were thousands of other workingmen
who would have to toll to pay the taxes
to make up for the 100000 lost by the
convicts being idle part of the time.
Mr.. Seaton opposed the bill on virtu-
ally the same grounds. He says the re-
ceipts from the sale of coal on the mar
ket have averaged 100000 year, and to
cut off that output means an increased
burden to the state to support the con-
Victs in idleness,
