tional Bank and Cashed 1t In
Juarez.-Then He Skipped.
Gilbert L. Hsssell, formerly of Ell
PasO, is now under arrest at Colorado
Springs and is wanted in this city TO
explain how he came by $50 pension
check which he cashed at Oppenheim-
er's in JuareZ.
The check came here in letter from
Hillsboro, Texas, bank, dated May
20, addressed to the First National
bank. The letter also contained an
other pension check and a draft for
$500 and how it got into Hassells
possession is mystery.
After Hassell cashed the check it
found it's way back to the First Nation
al bank, where the endorsement was
discovered to be forgery, about the
same time that another letter was re-
ceived from Hillsboro inquiring about
the first.
Complaint was made to Col. Bob
Campbell and be commenced an in
vestigation. He learned enough to
know that Hassell .wss the man who
had cashed the check and thai he had
left town. He had, however, left orders
that his mail be forwarded
to Colorado Springs and a telegram to
that point located the man and he was
arrested. He will be brought back
here in day or two and given q
chance to explain matters. He left here
q week ago today, the day after
cashing the check, and told several
parties that he was going east for q
month to get married. He also said
be was going to Colorado Springs for
his health.
Gilbert L. Hassell, the prisoner,
struck Ell Paso several months ago
from Silver City. He protested to be
a newspaper man from New York and
procured employment on the HERALD.
It soon developed that he WAS not, and
after he had run up several bills on the
HERALD'S credit, he was discharged.
He then struck out as q painter and
was engaged in that business up to the
time of his abrupt departure.

CHAPTER XX.
GwYN HEARS a PROPOSAL.

GWYN HEARS d PROPOSAL.
When Mason awokc next morning,
he found himself alone in the loft,
Coch Tai having long since descended
to his days work.
The sunlight was already strong, and
Mason saw, with mixed feeling Of
relief and dread, that there were signs
of thaw on the sparkling surface Of
the snow.
If the thaw continued, the way back
to Trecoed and thence to civilization
would soon be open. But the thought
of the changed course Of life which
this might inaugurate was not one OF
unmlXed Joy to the doctor.
For with his admiration and liking
for Gwyn Tregaron there mingled no
feeling strong enough to he called love.
1t was gratitude alone which prompted
him to the resolution he had come to Of
asking her to be his wife.
So, having made up his mind, he
sought and found an opportunity of
speaking to the girl. When they met
at breakfast. he saw, now that Cocll
Tai had opened his eyes, certain signs
in Gwyn which went far 10 confirm
what the peasant had said. There was

sinuation to the contrary proved un-
worthy of so gallant a man. Those
who took in task the work of trans
forming India, though branded as fa-
natics and satirized as fools, have sup
pressed tremendous evils and routed
hideous hallucinations.
"The India of today is nothing like
the India of century ago, or less.
Besides the prosperity resulting in
many places from its vast commerce,
schools, colleges, manual training in
stitutions and religious edifces of va
rious Christian cults have sprung up
everywhere"
The advocates of Christian foreign
missions may find in the recent history
of India an array of facts and argu.
ments which will give great force 10
their appeals for more active and bet
ter sustained efforts in other lands,
where the people are still sitting in
darkness.

did not know at that time that I had
another loaded cartridge in my revol
yer. The revolver introduced in evi
dence is the one 1 used in the fight.
There were only four men present
Cornwell, Howard, the stranger and
myself.
"The fight, as near as 1 can get at it

left Sitton & Kelley's stable in Laurens
street, near police headquarters, al
about 2.30, and drove directly to the
scene after picking up Cornwell at the
home of Chief LaFar in West Wash.
ington street.
"When the shooting was over,
went after the team, the horse havin
been frightened away, about 200 yards
l brought the team back by where the
fight occurred, and got into the main
road between the bridge and where
Cornwell had set down on the side OF
the road near the cabin. 1 passed
Howard in the main road before gol
to Cornwell.
II never did see any more of the
stranger.
Gas drove up to Cornwell, he said
again, He has shot me and killed me,
and asked me not to tell his wife. He
said he was too badly hurt for me to
carry him in the buggy, and asked me
to send a doctor to him. l came in
with the buggy and whisky to LaFar's
and reported the matter to him and he
sent assistance to CornwelI.
II didn't know who the men were
before we went out to the place. 1t
was reported to me that two men were
in the woods with whisky violating
the dispensary law. Their pames were
not given me.
II was wounded in two places-in
the small of the back and in the left
fore6nger. Howard must have shot
me in the finger as I pulled down on
him with the rife. The keg of whis
ky introduced in evidence is the key /
seized from Howard"
Constable Cornwell died at Q o'clock
Thursday morning, and George How
ard died at $50 o'clock Thursday
afternoon. Constable Cornwell realiz-
ed from the first that he was fatally
shot, and his mind wandered consider
ably. At. one time he stated that
Constable Cooley tried to run away ;
but the facts prove that be was mista-
ken. Howard stated, before he died,
that Cooley was the man who fired the
shots that killed him, in the manner
that Cooley states.
Both Cooley and Cornwell had the
reputation of being thorough gentle.
men in every respect. Cornwell was
total abstainer from liquor and Cooley
is quite temperate. Cornwell was a
Chester man, and was a son of the late
Representative Cornwell of that coun.
ty. Constable Cooley's home is at
Honea Path.

own. If she could trust herself to me,
with or without love, just out Of graft

And I'd be as happy as a bird on the
tree. And I'd make her happy, too,
that well know"
"And you don't think it foolish OF
you to throw away your only chance
Of her coming round to you"
Coch Tails rugged features glowed
with a look which was almost sublime
as he answered.:
mo, sir. For If | know her to be
happy. why, it'll be kind Of happi-
ness for myself too. That's how you
feel. sir. when you care for girl as
care for Gwyn Tregaron."
Mason bowed his head. There was
a noble simplicity in the man which
made praise Of his conduct, OF his
feelings, an impcrtincnce.
In silence he lay down to rest and
listened to the deep sigh which Coch
Tai uttered from time to time from his
resting place In the corner

mems by a long way. And she knew
you were in danger here
"Why should she know that?' asked
Mason eagerly.
But the peasant grew more reserved
at once.
"Well. you've said so yourself" said
he roughly, land suppose you know.
Anyhow. she thought you weren't safe.
suppose. and that makes a man In
teresting in a girls eyes. And so,
suppose. she looked at you and thought
about you and compared you with u.s.
the rough folks she's used to. and saw
difference, and-and that did 1t. And
now there's naught to be done but to
speed you on your way and for her to
face her trouble-alone."
Coch Tai shook his head Respondent
ly.
"If she'd liked me afore she might
come back to me-" said he hoarsely.
"but she never has. I've always known
that, and as l know the girls heart
lust as | know my own, for all I'm
only q rough, ignorant man. l know,
too, that she won't get over this any
more than l could get over the loss OF
her If | had to 60 away from seeing
her. And | know that | shall have to
stay on after all I've gone through and
see her break her heart and never be
able to so much as to take her head on
INV shoulder and tell her I'm sorry"
Mason was listening very atten-
lively, with his hands loosely clasped
and his head bent.
"If thought" said he gravely, that
there was any truth in what you
fancy. Merrick, IL would save her
from any such fate as you fear"
"What! You'd marry herr?
Coch Tai was alert. alive. In mo-
ment
"Yes," said the doctor after slight
pause. IF that were the only way to
save the girl from misery. l would do
So"
The peasant came forward and,
drawing packing case along with him
as a seat. sat close to the doctor, look
ing him straight In the eyes.
Doctor" said he in q deep whisper
that seemed to bring the words up
from his heart, lit is the only way.
You've not got the means to judge
what l have. you don't know all
know. you can never know it, but you
may take my word for it, if you marry
the girl and take her away from here,
from the whole lot Of us. and If you'll
be kind to her and treat her as you
