Nearys jealousy of his record, Lafe
took to talkin' spell about the strike.
"Yehs-s, I read in The Tribune th'

Lafayette wouldn't do no harm to
nobody, would he, even If he did carry
his army musket, eh?' concluded Lafe
as he poked the nearest newspaper in

The reporters tried hard to pump
Lafe for a story on what brought him
to Carbondale, but shrewd old sleuth
that he is, he wouldn't say word.
The air of mystery that he wore, how
ever, justifies the presumption that
there will be something doing in the
