GESTNER HELD.
The Farm Plunderer Will Have to
Stand Trial

Justice Henry yesterday heard the
preliminary examination of w. H.
Gestner. the partner of Heinz, arrested
by Officer Max Fisher for the theft of
a lot of grain bags, with the result that
he was held to answer.
Gestner and Heinz are the men who
travelled about the country with a
wagon, raiding ranches at night. The
latter is still at large, but is liable to
be caught at any time.
Chief Dwyer, Sheriff Johnson and
officer Max Fisher have each in turn
tried every possible way to induce
Gestner to talk about his operations.
but without avail. He is cool. cum
ming and shrewd fellow, and has an
evasive answer ready for every ques
ton asked him.
1t is evident that the man has an
interesting if not a thrilling record. and
that he is up to all the SubterfuSeS
and tricks of lawyers and detectives
His cunning was illustrated yesterday
when Photographer Beals took his por-
trait for the police and Sheriff's gal
leries of celebrities. Several times he
managed to work the head-rest in such
a way as to force his hat partly over
his forehead to shade his eyes just as
the lens-shutter was sprung.

idea that the compulsory payment of
benefits is the first consideration, but
such Is not the case-its prime purpose
is the alienation of the sufferings of
the human family.
As an illustration, at the last ses-
sion of the Grand Lodge, crippled
brother in destitute circumstances re-
ceived a donation of $500 from the
funds of that body and delegates went
down into their individual pockets and
raised $219 more.
The endowment rank provides pro-
lection for those near and dear to
brother Knights. 1t is for the benefit
of wives and children and is as safe as
human ingenuity can make it. The
endowment rank has paid more than
100000 to beneficiaries. Every man
owes it to himself to make whatever
sacrifice may be necessary to provide
for his family against the contingency
of his taking off.
While most of the lessons taught in
the several ranks are taken from the
inspired word, there is no opposition
against any faith-no antagonizsm to
the church. Religious liberation is en-
joined to the fullest extent"

est, and We're listened to with marked

had a pleasant meeting, closed the ac-
counts of it's construction COMMITTEES
and discharged 1t from duty with
thanks, and the new club rooms passed
into the possession of the House Com
mittee permanently.
1t was announced that on Thursday
evening the club members will meet
and receive the Reno trophy, and, in
honor of the relay team that won it
hold a club social by invitation of the
President. The idea of a wheelmen'S
day during the State Fair has been
preached, and meets with favor. 1t is
believed that if proper inducements are
held out a large number of the crack
a-jack riders and strong teams will ap-
pear, coming from all over the State'
1t is urged that the events could all ba
run in the forenoon, and thus not in,
terfere with any regular program, but
add novelty and variety to the gala
season.
The club has under consideration a
proposition to set up bicycle rack locks,
turers, to prevent loss Of wheels by

Several new members were elected
last night and many proposed, to be
voted on later. Members who have
been off on vacation tours, a-wheel, are
now returning, and after club meetings
the evenings overflow with recitals of
adventures and accounts of these out,

ALEXANDER AS MURDERER.
His Passionate Act and No Less
Passionate Remorse.

alexander in Anger and in Love
is the title of Professor Wheeler's July
article in his Century" series on Alex
ander the Great. In it he tells of his
killing of Clitus, and his marriage to
Roxane. At Samarkand, at feast in
honor of Dionysus, the brilliant cav
alryman, tainted the King, being pro-
voked thereto by certain courtiers:
Clitus' friends, in hope of preventing
a collision, hurried him out of the
room, and Ptolemy led him away out
of the citadel and beyond the moat;
but his fate and the folly of wine drew
him back. In a moment he had en-
tered at another side of the banqueting
hall, and raising the portiere that hung
before the door, stood defiantly there,
chanting in tone of reckless challenge
Euripides' verses of discomfort from
the "Andromache'
Alas, in Greece how ill things ordered
When trophies rise for victories in war.
Men count the praise not theirs who did
the deed
But give alone to him who led the need.
A few words brought the import of
the well-known passage. The appari
ton at the doorway was as sudden as
the challenge was insulting. Quick as
a flash the impetuous King snatched
a spear from the hands of a guard
and hurled it at the figure by the
raised curtain. The deed was done.
The friend of his childhood, his life
companion and rescuer, lay gasping
out his life.
Quick came the rebound from the
fury of anger in passion of remorse.
Alexander bent by the side of the pros
trate body, drew out the fatal spear,
and would have turned it against him
self, but his companions seized him
and led him away by force to his
chamber. There he lay through the
night and through the day, writhing
in the torment of remorse and self
reproach. Now he would call Clitus
by name as if to awake him from
death, now implore his forgiveness,
now chide himself as murderer of his
friends, now call the name of his nurse
Lanice, Clitus' sister, and, as if she
were present, abuse himself in self
accusation before her: How ill have
1 repaid thee, kindly foster-mother,- for
all thy care in rearing me-. Thy sons
half; thy brother I have slain with
mine own hand When the first
storm of grief had spent itself, he lay
still upon his bed, neither eating nor
drinking, nor suttering a word
So for three days, until the fear
spread through the camp that he
might become demented. Men came
to plead with him that he should face
his work and put his grief behind him;
but he listened to none of them, till
finally "specious platitudes of kismet
and predestination began to soothe, and
sophistic Greek infused a baleful
balm, reminding the successor of
Darius that Emperors stand above
obligation and above law" Still the
deed remained burden upon his soul.
and the memory of it seems to have
embittered the remainder of his life.
Perhaps 1t added something of the
hardness we cannot fail to note creep
