CHAPTER ".

If Kenneth Griswold had been
neither more nor less than pro-
fessional highwayman he would
probably have been taken and jailed
within the hour, inasmnch as his
cast for fortune included no well
wrought out plan of escape. But
since he was both wiser and less cum
ming than the iourneyman bank rob-
Der, and was, moreover, a hungry en-
thusiast who had argued himself
into the belief that his act was mere
~ illegal and not wrong, he threw
the police off the scent by doing that
which no criminal would have had
the nerve to do.
Once safely in the street, with the
package Of bank notes under his
arm, ne was moved to do some ex-
travagant thing celebrative of his
success. 1t had proved to be such
simple matter, after all; one bold
stroke; small bloodless tussle with
the plutocratic dragon whose hold
upon his prey is so easily broken;
and presto! the hungry proletary is
| himself a power in the land, strong
to do good or evil as the gods may
direct.
This was the prompting to ievita-
ton as it might have been set in
words; but in Griswold's thought it
was but a swift suggestion, followed
Immediately by another which was
much more to the purpose. He was
hungry: there was IA restaurant next
door to the bank. Without a

NOT A DISAPPOINTMENT.
The Haunting Fenr Of IL Fair Maids
Mother Regarding Young
Daniel Webster.

"Punpllin pie and professors plen-
ty; wheat and poetry a good deal
blasted; girls and gingerbread as
sweet as ever" wrote Daniel Webster
gaily in one Of his youthful letters to
a friend, says Youths Companion.
Indeed, it is well known that he was
by no means serious or insusceptible
youth, however awe-inspiring in Lis
maturity, for in his early writings
law, finance and politics are diversi-
fed by series of charming Nabbys,
Fannys and 'Sallies, upon whose ways
and witcheries he eXpatiated or jest
ed in tickle succession to his young
correspondents.
He seems also to have been popular
with the young ladies themselves and
their mammas; but a tradition exists
of one sharp old lady, the aunt of a
very pretty girl to whom young Daniel
had paid some attention, who did not
at all approve of him. Her objection
has been handed down among her de-
scendents as a cherished family anec-
do
eff that young Webster ever turns
out to be all he looks like. he will be
somebody very much greater than it's
likely he is she was wont to say;
"but it our Lyddy should marry him in
hopes, and he just stayed like other
folks, why, it wouldn't be fair to blame
the boy, l suppose, but he'd be a dis
app'intment; yes, ne certainly would
be a Disappointment"
The fair Lydia, however, was only
one of many transient fascinators.
She remained heart whole and IMAM
bilious. and suffered no ''dsapp'int-
ment mot even in the fact that Dam
iel Webster never gave her the oppor-
tunity to refuse him.

absurd; he had no such balance to his
credit; such check would not be hon

In the midst of his vehement protest
the stranger stepped back pace and
raised the weapon.

life! Do it while there is yet time!"
The sound of subdued voices came

the face of his prosecutor. There was
no mercy in the fierce blue eyes glazing
down upon him, but rather madness
and fell murder. The summons came
once again.
'Do it quickly, say, before we are
interrupted. Do you hear?"
Truly, the president both heard and
understood, but he hesitated yet one
other second.
"You will not? Then may God have
mercy"
The hammer of the leveled pistol
clicked twice. Andrew Galbraith shut
his eyes and made a blind grasp for
pen and check-book. His hands were
shaking as with a palsy, but the fear of
death steadied them suddenly when he
came to write.

anteroom, and the silence was broken
only by the labored strokes of the
presidents pen and the tap-tap of the
typewriter in the anteroom.

what explanation you see fit; but re-

They left the private office together,

the president tried in vain to catch a
responsive eye.
At the paying teller's window there
was only one person instead of the
group which Andrew Galbraith had
hoped to find there; a young woman
who was getting draft cashed. She
saw them and would have stood aside
but the robber forbade it with ges,
ture, and they waited for few trying
moments until she was served.
When the young woman went hel
way the president stepped to the win

that instant he had chung desperately

PROJECTED RAILROADS.
Prospects Good for Several to be Built
In Ossuoo

A writer IN state exchange, summing
up the railroad situation, says: The
outlook for railroad building in the state
Of Oregon II exceedingly good. The
rapid development Of the eastern part Of
the state has no increased the volume Of
trade and tonnage that the pack mule
and freight wagon can no longer handle
il. The demand for timber has also
stirred the transportation COM lsanies to
further road building, in order that the
ever.increasing products and vast timber
supplies may be put ON the markets
quickly and cheaply.
The mines Of eastern Oregon and it's
timber caused the extension Of the
Sumpter Valley road from Sumpter to
Whitney last year, and it is quite prob
able it will be extended to tap the rich
Greenhorn mining district next year.

its southern terminus ut Shaniko, seven.

HAS NOT YET ACCEPTED.
Judge Nelson Doubtful About the
Eleventh District Nomination.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
LOGANSPORT, Ind, July 16.-Up to the
present Judge John c. Nelson, of Logans-
port, has refused to state whether he will
accept the nomination for Congress thrust
upon him by the Democrats of the Eleventh
district at Peru yesterday or not but if
he allowed his personal preferences in the
matter to govern him 1t is very apparent
that he would not When asked to-day what
he intended doing he stated that he would
be better able to tell tomorrow To-mor-
row the committee, consisting OF represent
alive Democrats from the various counties
in the district, are TO notify him officially
Of his nomination and receive his reply.
In Judge Nelson the Democrats of the
Eleventh district think they have found
man who can defeat Fred Lands and he is,
In fact, the only man in the district they
could find IN whom they felt justified TO
impose this trust. That accounts for their
persistency in placing him in nomination
over his protest. Judge Nelson being an
old soldier they figure that he will secure
the old soldier vote, and in addition to this
they believe there is much dissatisfaction
among others who will work to defeat the
man who beat Major Steele in the recent
convention at Wabash.
Nelson's army record will be made one of
the strongest points Of his campaign, If he
consets to accept the nomination. He is a
native of Ohio and entered the army at
the age of eighteen. He was speedily pro-
NOTED TO the rank of captain and served in
all the battles under General Sherman and
also in the march to the sea. He was
wounded at Chickanauga. Thirty years ago
he came TO LOgansport ard for several
years taught in the public schools. Then he
embarked in the shoe business and spent
his evenings studying law He was admitted
10 the CaSs county bar and under Governor
Williams was appointed judge of the APP
pellate Court. In 1878 he was elected judge
of the Superior Court when he and the
candidate for surveyor were the only Demo-
Gratis elected on the ticket In 1888 he was
nominated for mayor of Logansport over
his protest and elected. He served one
term. In 1886 he was the choice of his party
to fill the supposed vacancy of Lieutenant
Governor TO succeed Lieutenant Governor
Manson. He is member OF the law firm of
Nelson & Meyers, his partner being Quincy
A. Meyers. one of the leading Republicans
of the district.
