AS he mounted the steps OF the
platform, he told his hearers, Heaven
had opened its windows to him and
a new spirit had entered into his
body as clear and pure as the
mountain rills and the stars of the
midnight summer skies.
For ninety seconds he poured out
torrent Of eloquence of repentance,
and concluded by warning the
young to guard against intemper-
ance and passion; and then be-
queathed his wealth, which was
great, and the hiding place OF
which be revealed to the priest, to
the family Of the murdered Munich
pal.
The effect was electrical. Tears
fell like summer showers, and pray
ers for the soul Of the dying few
heavenwards with signs Of relief.
Calmly, first turning round to look
at his arm chair, he sat down. His
arms and legs we're quickly and
neatly pinioned with thongs Of raw
hde~nThs cruel collar was adjusted
around his neck. He kissed the
crucifix. The priests aud executioners
closed around him. AS the first
words OF the Credo were said, with
the Cross close to his face, there was
a flash of black priestly cape over
his head. 1t remained there for
few seconds, and then the face was
exposed. He was dead. Save that
he had on that iron cravat, none
could detect change in the face,
and none saw how he died.
The curious noted that overhead
in the elsewhere cloudless and in
tensely deep blue sky there was one
small round cloud high up in the
Heavens. 1t was referred to in

the devout accepted the allegorioal
lesson.
In less than five minutes the body
was placed nude in a rough black
coffin and given over to the Santa
Hermandad for the funeral services
OF their order. It's subsequent fate
was probably the dissecting room,
for the writer was offered the alleged
thumb of the deadly left hand, for

The crowd dispersed; The women
to pray, and the men to discuss the
newest beauty in womeukind and the
most ferocious of the bulls for the

And all smoked and thought that
life was worth living after all go
long az salt, beauty, bread and bulls
ruled the day in happy Andulasia.

the special master show that the sales
do occur in Missouri.
Attorney General Boyle made strong
argument. He said that the determina-
tion Of the reasonableness of the rates
should be guided by equity and justice.
The fact that reduction had been made
did not necessarily mean q reduction
in profits. Many such reductions were
followed by increased business and in
creased profits. That this result might
follow in this case was shown by the
testimony of Manager Morse, who said
that many shippers now fed their stock
on the train because they could not
afford to pay the rates at the yards. The
Attorney General also called attention
to the Ames decision in Nebraska, where
Judge Brewer Of the United States Su-
preme court, held that it would not be
fair to estimate the value Of the Union
Pacific road on the basis Of what II
would cost to build the road now, be-
cause when it was built 1t had cost very
much more, holding in effect that the
original cost should govern. Applying
the same reasoning to this case, the
stock yards cOmpany's property should
be valued at about 81 900 an acre, which
is what 1t cost them, rather than at $685.
900 an acre, which it is alleged to be
worth now. "If Justice Brewer was
right" Mr.. Boyle said, Gin the Union
Pacific case the people ought not to be
charged with all of this great increase
in value of the land" He said that the
stock yards had grown to be a veritable
Klondike, turning out golden nuggets
to it's owners
The case was taken under advisement
by Judge Foster and will not be de-
cided for some time.
