she saw the policeman. swell. you're
too late. Some of your pards got
ahead of you this time. He's gone.
They got him this afternoon. For
what l don't know"
81 didn't come to get your husband"
Ferguson said. 81 know where he is.
l came to see if you needed help
'We wouldn't need help if you'd let
Mack alone. You mugs worry the life
out of him and me, too. He amt SO
bad as you think he is. Just cause he
was once doesn't mean he's always go
ing to be the same, does it?"
The woman was shivering with the
cold as she spoke, and Ferguson no.
ticed it.
"Did Mack tell you anything about
going to work tomorrow he asked.
"Yes. He had a good thing offered
him, but I suppose It's all off now"
AS the officers eyes were directed
about the squalid, dingy room they
rested for second on the pile of
ragged blankets in the corner which
served for bed, and they discovered
that the fire in the little coal stove
was almost out and that the coal box
was nearly empty. Their owners
heart was touched.
"Do you suppose it would do any
good if l brought Mack back to-
night?" he asked of the brave little
woman near him.
"Could you do it?" she exclaimed,
anNiously, laying her thin, withered
hand on the policeman's arm.
81 think so,' was the answer. "He
hasn't been booked yet"
"Then, for Gods sake do sol" she
cried, breaking down and sobbing. 81
can't do without him now," she con-
tinued later ''I'm almost sick. Be
sides, it'll encourage Mack. He means
to do right now, know, for he prom
ised me he would, and I'm sure he'll
keep his word if he's given fair
show
'Pll do it," said the policeman, rush
ing from the room.
Half an hour later Mccarthy was
back in his home, and there was a
bucket of coal and a basket of food
there, too. Ferguson had hurried to
the patrol box, called up the desk SER
geant, explained matters to him and
asked that the prisoner be sent home
in the wagon.
''Put in a scuttle of coal, and a bas-
ket of grub, too," he added; "they
need it. And tomorrow have some
body GO around to see if anything
else can be done. l won't be in to-
night, bill. Happy New Year: Good
night
"What kept you SO late, Fred?" Fer
guson's wife asked him when he
reached home. "You said you would
be here to watch the Old Year out
with me, so l sat up for you. But it's
after one o'clock now"
81 know it," he answered, "but was
unavoidably detained. Sorry, though.
But you'll forgive me, 1 know" he ad-
ded, when l tell you that by staying
l believe l have helped to give man a
fresh start on life. It's good way to
begin the New Year." he said as he
put his arms around the little woman
and gave her a violent hug.-Chicago

The scotch BibIe Test.

On New Years Day a hard-headed
Scotchman will take a Bible and place
it upon a table, letting it fall open of

he will place his finger upon the page

verse on which it rests. This is sup
posed to indicate his fortune for the
coming twelvemonth.- Cincinnati En-

81 wonder if did do wrong in lock-
ing Mccarthy up" Ferguson said to
himself after he had walked several
blocks, thinking of the matter all the
time. Don't really believe did. I've
had orders to bring in all the suspi-
cious characters 1 find during the hol-
idays, and if Mccarthy isn't one don't
know who is. Guess I'll go around and
see the family anyway. Maybe they're
in hard lines and need help" he con-
tinued, after moments reflection.
Funny that man should spring the
same gag on me that Mccarthy did
about that job"
Mrs. Mccarthy wasn't very deeply
grieved that afternoon when one of
her many children came running into
the house and told her that a police
man had taken the father away in the
patrol. 1t had happened so often be-
fore that the novelty of it all had worn
off. But she couldn't understand what
he had been doing, for only half an
hour earlier he had left her as cheer
full as could be over the prospect of
getting permanent work the next day.
He was only going over to the corner
to get some tobacco, he told her, and
would be back soon. Perhaps he got
into a fight, she thought, and let it go
at that.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1902-12-26

Mrs. Mccarthy had so much to do
that she was kept up very late that
night. Three of the children had the
Group, which called for much doping
and rubbing after they had been put
to bed; another of them hadn't a
whole piece of clothing to his back,
and the patient little mother was
forced to spend considerable time
patching and darning. In addition to
this she was making dress for wom-
an which had to be delivered the first
thing in the morning. 1t was close
on to midnight when she finished it..
Just as she was putting away her work
there came rap on the DOOR
"Oh, it's you, is it?" she said when
