cheap baking powder, which it found
in that city. Attention was attracted

chiefly of alum and pulverized rock.
The powder was declared to be dam
gerous to health, and several thou
sand pounds were carted to the offal
dock and destroyed.

in his chair and shook his head sad
ly. "And so Herbert is gone," he
murmured. "This news comes with
appalling suddenness."

Guy, twas my father"
"Your father!" The Colonel strug-
gled to his feet, rushed upon Guy
and wrenched his hand powerfully.
"My dear boy, this would be happy
moment for me were you not the
bearer of such sorrowful news" The
Colonel dropped Guys hand, reached
behind him to the tails of his coat
and brought forth a large bandanna
handkerchief. Applying this to his
eyes, he proceeded to pace the mar
row confines of the sanctum while
rallying from the blow.
Guy was surprised at this mani
festation of feeling. He was aware
that his father had known Col. Keev-

entire charge of the town. he was
on the point of dispensing with the
managers services at the time his
last illness came upon him.
Hating under the stovepipe hole,
the Colonel recovered the paper
weight, again seated himself and
laid both paper weight and handker-
chief on the desk beside him.

the town." finished the colonel. "A
princely inheritance, my boy"
DO you think SOP" queried Guy,
hopefully.
II do, providing we can keep the
county seat
'Then I hope Concord will be able
to keep it" returned Guy, fervently.
"Aside from a few hundred dollars,
this town is all my father left me.
The Colonel's face heightened. Guy
observed this and augured direfully.
"What's the matter with the coun-
ty seat?" he asked. II understood
that Concord had it hard and FAST
County seats, my boy, are peculiar
institutions. In this country it takes

praying that the county seat be re-

voting upon the question. This,
mind you, is in direct violation of
the law!" The Colonel brought his

vim that made the ink leap out of

demanded. 'They expressly stipulatc
that the peoples will, with respect

The Colonel's indignation dropped

'This is Dakota, my dear young
