CHAPTER XVII.
Is ANXIOUS.

I'll -
Albert Steinworth was visibly affect
ed by DR.. Pcrcival's evidence. HIS for
mer n~onchalance had disappeared, and
he listened with brcathlcss attention to
the doctors evidence concerning the
chlOroform.
Vickerv, who had been seated at the
back of the court after it had reasSem-
bled, had pushed his way forward when
he heard DR.. Pcrcival make his opening
statement. When the witness gave it as
his emphatic opinion that Mrs. DavOrn
had not succumbed to the effects of
chloroform, Il low cry escaped from him,
a cry which might have been produced
by overwhelming amazement OF night
lave been a cry Of intense relief.
Maurice Leclerc seemed hopelessly
puzzled as he stood in the court listen
ing to the evidence of his friend. Just
as the court adjourned for luncheon DIR.
Percival had appeared in the small room
whore Inspector Briggs had directed
Ethel Rodney to sit. Leclerc was with
her when Percival-profuse in his apol-
ogies to every One for being late-ar-
rived. The worthy doctor somewhat
flurriedly dispatched Ethel home in his
brougham and then turned to LeClerc.
Il think it will be all right" said
he, pinching the Young doctors arm.
"And now I'm hungry, and l am sure
you are. Let us forget the unfortunate
business we are here to give evidence
about and join our common friend, the
house surgeon, in the hospital. He has
promised me Il luncheon, and I'll take
the liberty of inviting you to join Us.
But not a word about the other affair,
if Won please. Norton is going to give
evidence too. He conducted the post
m0rtcm with me.
Leclerc was fortunately not ware
that among other documents which In
spectOr Briggs carried with him was a
warrant for his arrest, n warrant which
the inspector had decided to put into
operation as sO0n as the court was over
for the day. When Inspector Briggs
heard the confession of Bernard Nickcry,
he was puzzled to decide whether or no
he had better abandon two Of the three
warrants he held. As he listened to DR..
Percival's evidence he had an uneasy
feeling that the third warrant was in
jeopardy. 1t was a bewildering case.
He would give a good deal to know
what was Goringe's opinion Of the
whole matter. But anyhow the self
condemned man had better be put under
lock and key.
DR.. Pcrcival did not take long to re-
sumo the thread of his narrative. He
knew he had electrified the court, but
his face showed no sense Of triumph.
My IMPRESSION he continued, in
a calm and measured tone, THAT Mrs.
DavOrn had not died from the effects Of
chloroform was based upon more than
one assumption. But | felt that an i'm
preston so hastily formed wanted very
strong cOrrOboration, under the circum-
stances. l have obtained that c%OrrObOra-
ton. With the valuable assistance Of
Surgeon Norton | have made a post NOR
tenn examination of the deceased, and l
have arrived at the conclusion that she
met her death through natural causes.
The exact cause Of death, in fact, was
apoplexy. think l may venture upon

can now tell the readers of the Eagle,
said Mr. Austin. that the great well is
now being sent deeper each hour. The
work we have had heretofore has been
in measure preliminary but from this
time on each strata passed through

There are visitors here by e-hun-.
dreds. but as l have before stated they
have seen nothing but sand I can give
no estimate as 70 how far we will be
enabled to go ped day, but feel certain
that from this time on the work will
progress much faster. Hereafter all
We have to do is to drop the prepared
casing when we have gone TO. certain
length and go on. AS you know in sand
this is not the case, as when We stop
the sand will run in. In the strata in
which we are at work now the sides will
hold and this difficulty viii not occur.
You need not look for natural gas
much before Thanksgiving day and I
would advise people to put up thir US

what our find may be coal and not gas,
at all. So they had better not fail to
put UP their stoves

THEY ARE SENT up
THREE COL0RED BOYS CAPTURED
HERE ARE FOUND GUILTY.
During the Encampment of the Kansas

Worthy Of Hawkshaw They Succeed
In Begging Their Gsme-History of the
Case-Wichita Observation-Disclosures

Harry Sutton yesterday received a
stating that the three negro boys that
Harry and Bedford. Wood so cleveriy
captured had received their sentence
at EmDoria as follows:
John Duly, seven years; Tom Rich
ards, and Bud Smith each, two years
in the penitentiary. The crime for
which the boys was convicted was that
Of burglary at EnpoTia during the en-
campment OF the state militia
When the robbery occurred Sheriff
Evans sent out postals to all the cities
asking the officers to keep a look out
for persons attempting 10 dispose of
jewelry and gave a description Of the
jewelry, or a portion of IL, taken from
the jewelry store robbed The boys
had taken something over 800 worth OF
jewelry. Whsn this letter was receiv-
ed the boys got DOWN their directory of
suspicious characters and began the To-
cation of each on the night of the rob-
berry. They located all but Tom Rich
ards negro boy, about Is years of age.
Inquiry informed the officers that Tom
was at Emporia on the night of the rob
berry and they concluded to keep an eye
on him upon his return. They always
keep a number of boys on the string
who owe their liberty to their generosi-
ty. One of these was told to inform
the officers upon the arrival of Tom.
The next day Tom came in from Hutch
irson and the news was carried to Bed
ford Wood. He gave the boy 81 and
told him to try and buy a watch from
Tom. Soon the trade was made and
the watch delivered to the officer. It
proved to be one which they had a
description and no time was lost in TAX
ing Thomas in out OF the wet.
Tom had two companions but they
made their escape on the trucks of the
Frisco. The officers teiegraphed TO
the conductor at Augusta to capture
the boys on the trucks of his train. The
answer came back that the conductor
and brakeman were unable TO find the
boys. Another dispatch was sent, and
at NeodeSha the boys were found and
given over to the officers.
Park Massey left ou the train the
next day and got the two boys and re-
turned them TO the Sheriff of Lyon coun
". In the meantime the officers had
learned the whole story from Tom, and
We're thus enabled to give a clear case
against the boys. Sheriff Evans COM
plimented the Wichita officers very
highly in his letter yesterday enclosing
a check for the money and expense they
had been at. The officers claimed no
reward for their services whatever
