tai He had an exciting time. He
went after all kinds of game. He tried
to arrest Il bicycliSt and thae lndi-
vidual took out his spite against the
bike policemen in general by giving the
youth an ugly blow on The upper lip,
raising that quite beyond respectable
proportions. Nor was the youth put
out by the abrupt ending Of his nights
escapades. He stood on the postofiice
corner a few moments later and talked
TO a crowd.
THAT policeman told me 20 let that
robber 60" he said, and of course I
had to. I guess he was jealous. Cap
tain Donovan says [ amt cut ont for
detective. But I guess I've made
good record today. I've run down
three murder cases and could nave ar
rested the men if the police would have
helped me. I've found lots of robbers
I've made more arrests than he whole

good record after being in town only
two weeks"
The hero of all this trouble is only
u. The first faXen down has Just
touched his upper lip. He is under

ordinary in appearance. There is evil
IDENTITY something very greatly wrong
with him.
There is one danger about him. He
may get hold Of a pistol somewhere
and try to arrest someone who will re-

sense enough not to shoot again he
might try to arrest someone who wol
object and therefore get a severe puTn-
melting for his pains.

CHICAGO. July 25.-The trans

forming a passenger association to-
day, but took no positive action, the
entire session being taken up with
the consideration of the agreement
The Rio Grande Western and the

the Utah business have kept matters
unsettled in that territory, tor some
time have agreed to hold a confer
ence and make an effort to settle their
differences within the next two weeks.
1t has been agreed that the head
quarters of the association will be at
Kansas City and B. D. Caldwell, of
the Western Lines Passenger associa-
ton will be its temporary chairman
until it is definitely determined
whether the association will stand by
itself or be a part of the general as
ISOLATION.
It was said yesterday that the
trans-Missouri association would
stand alone, but doubts as to the adj
visibility has arisen and the matter
will be settled later. Meanwhile the
Kansas City officers will be in charge
of a secretary who will be under the
direction of Mr.. Caldwell.

railroad enterprise. The scene is laid
in West Virginia and the road will be.
