brown beard thoughtfu1ly. He would
have made joke if he were at a funeral
and the joke had been at the expense
of the corpse.
"It's bad on mt" he said, drily. "if you
fellers kill out many more ringleaders
like sgd I'll be out of job-that skunk
has been bread an meat to me, fur a
long time. But, no jokin', we'd better
make a bee line fur town, an I'll see
if can't git you up bond. You are
too good a citizen to be stuck in COM
mon Jail. We cayn't do thing till
we've had committal trial. To
tell you the truth, 1 don't like
the looks of the business. Thad
Williams is devil on wheels; he'll give
you trouble. What he'll swear won't
be prompted by the angels, an his
threat shows his hand. But his testi-
mony, true or untrue, will go as fur
at court as presidin' elders. Many
an innocent man has had his life swore
away by designin' rascals."

CHAPTER x.

The summer passed and the fall app
preached. The cotton, ripened, burst
Its bolls and whitened on the brown
stalks till broad fields of snow lay on
all sides of Carnleigh. For awhile Ron
aid had put aside his studies to super
intend the picking, hauling and ginning
of his cotton. The weather had been
favorable and he had made good crop.
He had not CHANGED to meet Mrs. Lam
caster again after the day she had
called, and about the middle of August
he learned that she had gone back to
Charleston. His informant also limited
that Evelyn was to follow her in Octo-
Der. He was trying to forget certain
thoughts about her which had beat
themselves into his heart during the
summer, and though he felt sharp
pain over the announcement that she
was going away, he tried to look upon
1t as providential.
There were other things, too, which
forced themselves upon his attention.
Reports were continually fltering
through the gossips to him to the eff
feet that Sydney Hart had sworn to be
revenged or him for having made him
the butt of ridicule on the night Of the
attempted lynching. The newspapers
had given considerable space to the
matter, and the local correspondents,
being unknown to Sgd, dared to write
what they would never have said to his
face. They made him out even more
desperate outlaw, if possible, than he
was, and added sting to these state
ments by making great hero of Fan
shaw, who was described as having
every grace and virtue that could fall
to the lot of one man. Moreover, lit
tie parson, who was visiting in the
neighborhood, and was told before
hand that Sgd was in an adjoining
county, had taken the affair as topic
for his discourse, and among other
things which reached Sydwith almost
telegraphic rapidity, he said that Sgd
was coward who was so much afraid
of his shadow that he did his evil deeds
at night. So when all these things had
ranked for two months in Syd's mind,
he decided that he could at once prove
his courage and get even by having it
out with Ronald Fanshaw.
One day Ronald was leaving, the cot
ten gin, which was about Q mile from

CHAPTER XII.

With head bowed like an OK draw
ing burden, Ronald plunged along
the road. Hisifingers still held his re-
volver in grasp of steel. The ping
ping of exploding cartridges still
sounded in his ears-the dead mans
stark face and glazing orbs seemed
photographed on his brain.
I've killed mani" he tried to
enunciate the words, but his tongue
seemed to have swollen in his mouth.
Suddenly that happened which at that
moment he would have died to obvi-
ate. He saw the yellow pony-cart
from Carnleigh, and it's sole occupant
was Evelyn Hasbrooke. He stopped
in the middle of, the road and stood
staring at her as one paralyzed. See
ing him, she started, her fine features
become suffused with a soft pink
glow; she smiled and bowed, then, as
she remarked the fierce stare of his
eyes, and the white helplessness of his
face, she caught her breath.
"What has happened?" her eyes fall
ing on his revolver.
With his disengaged hand he lifted
his hat.
I'll think you had better not go
that way he said, haltipgly.

come nigh i'm, an I'll let daylight

come nigh i'm, an I'll, let daylight
through you'll"
Ronald stood as if rooted to the spot.
He had no desire to see the man who
had fallen by his hand. A chill like that
of death stole over him. He had killed
q man-killed man! Then his heart
bounded suddenly little ray of hope
burst upon him, for he heard Thad Will
liams' voice, low and tender: "Are you
hurt, sgd, old boy? Say, old chum,
come off; don't play tricks on me!'
There was low monotonous response
to this, and it continued for fully half
q minute. Then Ronald heard gut
tural, labored coughing, and when it
had ceased he knew that Sydney Hart
was dead. Striding forward, he parted
the branches of the bushes. He found
Thad Williams holding the dead mans
head on his arm, as he might have held
that of an infant.
is he dead?" Ronald asked.
The giant lowered the lolling head
with its glaring eyes to the turf and
hooked at the speaker with glare OF
hate.
"He don't look like he's runnin' of a
foot race, do he?" he sneered. and a
sinister look took root in his face as
he went on: "Me'n him used to stan
by one another, But as you say yore
ammunition is out, l reckon men you
had as well not take it up. Thelaw will
atten' to yore case-it ortto make it hot
fur coldblooded murderer"
II shot him in self-defense," answered
Ronald, averting his eyes from the se-
pulsive sight.
"Self nothin'," sneered Williams
jest before he died he toll me how il
come about. He said you shot fnst, an
that you said you had intended to SHAY
i'm ever since that night at the swamp.
reckon the court will take my testi.
mony, an you bet I'll swear the truth"
you are going to swear to that,
then?" said Ronald, too deeply
shocked by what had occurred to real
ize the full Importance of the threat.
Williams nodded as he bent over the
corpse and began to stroke the hair
back from the clammy brow. There
was a rumbling of wheels, and two cot.
ton wagons filled with negro and white
laborers rounded the bend in the road
'Hold on thar!" Williams cried, as
he Strengthened himself up and waved
his two hands. 81 want enc O. them
thar wagons to take dead comrade
home to his fireside!"
The wagons stopped. The men
alighted, and, stricken with horror

man lay Ronald turned to go. q

THE court will pass on that
threatened Williams, with a growl.

demning stare of his neighbors he fell

almost as if he had committed de-
liberate crime. They gave way for
him to pass as if his garments held
the germs of death. Round the bend
the strident voice of Williams held
him up.
Handle i'm easy, men; he was not
afeerd O. anything that ever wore a
hide; you don't git to fetch many
sech in lifetime; his dead meat is
better'n q meetin' house full O. the

Easy thar! put yore ham under his
head; he amt a-goin' to pizen you.
He's no more fur this worl'. You'll
never heer his jolly laugh agin on this
earth. My God! is it possible you are
dead-dead, old comrade?"

stairs and key ratified in the lock-
of little iron door in the wall, and
through it came a woman's voice:
Here's yore supper. Mr.. Fanshaw."
1t was the jailer's wife, and he arose
and took the plate of food and cup
of hot coffee from her hands.
"Mr. Ratcliff stopped at the door just
now" she said, in a cold, methodical
tone, ian he said tell you Mr.. Reddin'
was out in the country, but he'd left
word at his house fur. i'm to come an
see you as soon as he got back"
When she had gone, Ronald put the
plate on the bed (there was no table
in the room) and washed his hands and
face in The tin basin, but somehow the
cold water added to the general chill

RUN TOCOVER

Now that the Presidential campaign
is approaching the gold press is at
its old tactics reporting TIE changing
of prominent Silver men to the ranks
of the gold standard Senator Stew
art has been reported as having de-
serted the cause Of Silver. A few
days ago Surveyor-General Kelly
wrote him Of the reports in this State
regarding his alleged change to the
Republican ranks and yesterday the
following dispatch came from the
Senator:
Washington, Jan. 2, 1900.
Hon. E. D. Kelly:-Letter received
Report that have abandoned silver
or changed any Of my principles is
another canard Of precisely the same
character and probably invented 70,
the same purpose as the enc which
appeared year and half ago il
the New York Times. That pape1
published statement purporting tt
be an interview in which it made m.
say that l had turned gold bug, whe,
in fact had no interview all. Til,
present story is of the same fabri
cation.

FLANICANS CANDIDACY

The Virginia Report says, in re-
gard to the announcement that P. L.
Flanagan Of Washoe is an aspirant
fer the Republican Congressional nom
ination next year:
We had the honor to inform him
on a previous occasion that If he
ever ran for State or Congressional
Office, we would undertake to see
that he got tin the neck, so far
as Storey county is concerned. His
ewn arrogant personality will put
the finishing touches on him through
out the rest of the State. We really
hope he'll run.
We second the Reports wish that
the supreme selfconceit of this polit-
teal upstart may cause him to poke
his nose into the political arena next
year. He is not the first who. listen
ing to the jingle of luckily acquired
wealth. has imagined it the voice OF
destiny bidding him aspire to politi-
cal honors. One IS asto1nded though
at the gentleman S modesty, consider
ing that the Presidential nomination
is also open to aspirants next year
Perhaps he doesn't know it.-Silve1
State
Mr. Flanagan has no qualifica
items whatever for Congress ant
should realize this fact at an early
date. He advocated proposition il
Carson last winter before a publ,
audience, placing a property qualifi
cation on the elective franchise. H
fought and assisted In beating tn
Tahoe tnnnel bill which would hav
been the salvation Of his county. Hi
oLly idea of his duties as Senate
seemed to be confined to the little cir
Gle in which he could personally ben
eft P. L. Flanni-an. The idea tina
other people in the State we're int,
ested in legislation. never seemed
have occurred to him. People " h
are suggesting his name as Cor
gressiona1 possibility are simply 81,
ing him cruel jolly.
