From The Kansas City Journal
At th,. little mining town of Bruce. in CraW-

by John Schwitzar during row in SchwitZers $
Joint Kelly had invited some friends To take a
drink when SchWitZcr said. You viii have II

down And at that Schwitzer drew revolver
and killed Kelly i'm his tracks.
Then an extraordinary scene was witnessed
The crowd pushed up against the bar with cries

we will speak Of him afterward.'
hito sighed deeply, and at once turned TO his
food, for that would at any rate give him en-
ergy to eXpostulate with the criminal.
A few minutes later Master Kokich came in,
looking sulky and defiant He expected to be
sent 10 bed with only half supper, and great
was his surprise to find il more generous than
usual. The red chilli especially touched him up
with something like remorse He remembered
il all his life.
At last kokichi, having taken his lecture with
Unexpectedly good grace, went to sleep off the
daikon under his grandmOther's new mosquito
net. She and her son talked long after the little
roprObate had forgotten their existence, and
ShiwO persuaded the priest to let her start off
AT to try and obtain his conversion by her
prayers. KitO knew nothing of the old VOW.
He saw that she terribly troubled about the
boy; Nikko very holy place, and he
thought at any rate it would sOothe and please

exclaimed. AT your honorable age it is too

oi the pass and sat down in a deserted tea shed.
FROM there she looked out over the wide silver
tnfeaced plain, on whose northern side rose the
niils that held the tomb of Iyeyasu, of Gongen
Safna- the great saint. So many years had
passed since she there that she almost
wondered If IL had outlived them. Were those
misty chains of purple and silver indeed the hills
where she had gathered pink lilies fifty years
ago: Wei, unless the gods would take the
Hesh eggs into favorable consideration she
