Gently the renter of safe, anxious
for the spiritual welfare of one of
the janitors, said, while they were
in the vault together: care you pre-
pared to die?" For answer the Iani-
tor instantly pinned the questioner
to the wall by the throat. Assistance
arrived and the unfortunate renter
was carried out, half "throttled." Ex-
plantations ensued and it was then
discovered that an inquiry after his
spiritual welfare had been construed
by the janitor as the preliminary to
murderous attack.

That half-wink broke the spell,
With roar the Colonel rushed to the
cot and grabbed up the Winchester.
"Villain!" he cried, tossing the gun
to his shoulder. your insolence has
overshot the mark! You have dared
to come into this town again and this
time I've got you. Egad, we'll teach
you lesson now that you won't soon

Once more Dingle drew down the
left eyelid. The Winchester seemed
to have no terrors for him and the
Colonel's fury passed all bounds. He
pulled the trigger-not with the IN
tention to STAY but merely to brighten
and to arouse the town. There was
q sharp click, but no report. The
Colonel pumped" the lever and tried
again, but with like result. Then Din

yourself, Keever," said he. Capt.

CHAPTER XIV.

On the night Col. Keever guarded
the county records, he took with him
into the courthouse Winchester
rifle and pint flask. Kentucky born
and bred it is to be presumed that
he was as familiar with one OF these
weapons as he was with the other.
BE that as it may, however, it Is GER
tain that he fortified his courage
to such an extent thnt he slept
soundly throughout all the opera
tions connected with the moving of
the building.
So level was the road leading from
the courthouse site in Concord to
the vacant square in Harmony, and
SO skillfully did the enemy work, that
Col. Keeyer, if he realized anything
ut all, could only think that the
storm was most furious and that
this half-tinished structure was sad
ly in need of underpinning.
A never-to-be-forgotten picture he
presented to Capt. Blue and his In
vincibles, who did the work connect
ed with the moving. In the light Of
an occasional lightning flash the
Colonel could be viewed at leisure
by any one who wished to walk along
beside one of the windows and peer
into the single unfinished room
which the building contained.
The great man was lying upon a
cot in such way as to reveal the
noble proportions of his platonic
brow. Under the cot was the tin box
containing the precious records and
close beside the cot lay the empty
flask. The Coloners pillow partly
covered the rife, only the stock and
muzzle of the weapon being in evil
dence. As the Colonel slept he
smiled-smiled condescentlingly in
that superior manner which was a
part of him. He was dreaming
dreams, no doubt, and pleasant ones.
1t was late in the morning when
the awakening came. The rain had
ceased, the clouds had dispelled and
a burst of June sun trailed in
through an eastern window. The
Colonel stirred restlessly, opened his
eyes and yawned. The melancholy
gaze he rested on the empty flask
changed to look of pride as his
eyes took in the box of records, all
intact. 1t would have taken IN army
corps to separate him from those
documents.
Suddenly he had startling
thought and he icrked systematically
and blinked in his bewildcrment.
Then he lay qsite still, thinking.
What business had the morning sun
shining through western window
The courthouse, ut the present stage,
had only one glazed opening ana
nothing but blank wall on its east
ern side. What did this mean? The
Colonel rubbed his forehead. Was it
possible that he had slept into the
afternoon and that the sun was de-
scending instead of rising? He got
up and hurriedly dressed himself.
Then he walked to the window.
Merciful powers! There were iron
bars across the outside of it! The
mystery deepened. AS he stood
there staring 10, the face of Dingle,
of the hated Dingle, appeared and
looked in at him.
The Colonel staggered against the
wall and caught his head in his hands.
Was this a hideous dream or was it
reality? Dingle remained at the win
dow but spoke no word All he did
was to grin, in sarcastic way and
draw the lid partly down over his

PLEASANT SPRINGS MYSTERY.
Tobacco Stripper Found Dead in the
Road.

Tobacco Stripper Found Dead in the
Road.
Stoughton, Wis, Feb. 11.-Ole Aa-
bole, farm hand living near This city,
was found dead Sunday morning in
the road near the house of Edward
Gunderson in the town of Pleasant
Springs. Aabole, who was a single
man of SO, had been stripping tobacco
in the neighborhood, was visiting at
the farm of Oscar Altemus Saturday
Afternoon in company with his cousin,
Edward Gunderson. Shortly after
dark the two started to walk to the
latters house, distance Of some two
miles. Before proceeding far Aabole
turned about and declared his inten-
ton of going to Stoughton. This was
the last seen of him until he was found
dead almost at the gate of his cousins
house. Whether he was intoxicated
and lay down and went to sleep or
was seized with an apoleptic fit is a
problem not yet solved. The authorl-
ties were at once notified and a cor
oner's jury consisting of B. o. Ofte1ie,
A. Holtan, Ed Aspelie, Ed Erickson,
Albert Skaar and Theo. Kasse was
sworn in by Justice Currier and they
will consider the case.

PRESS WANTS PLACE
DELEGATES OVERWHELMED BY
NEWSPAPER MEN,
ALL DESIRE TO SEE HENRY
Would Witness Launching of Meteor
and TraveI on Train With Prince
Westward-OnIy Half Dozen Can
be Taken on Trip but Launching to
be Made More Accommodating.

Washington, Feb. 9.-The presi-
dents delegates for the entertainment
of Prince Henry have been over
whelmed with applications from the
principal newspapers of the country
seeking accommodations for represen-
tatives at the launching of the Meteor.
and also on the special train upon
which Prince Henry will journey
through the country. The German
embassy has also received similar
communications. A statement on the
subject has been issued stating it had
been found impossible to comply with
the applications of individual news
papers for the purely physical reason
that no train could be made up to &C
commodate all the applicants and yet
make schedule time. By econOmiZing
space on the train it has been found
possible to provide six places, three
for representatives Of the American
Press associations and three for cor
respondents of newspapers published
in Germany, who will be designated by
the German ambassador. AS to the
launch at Shooters island, Wallace
Downey, head of the shipbuilding firm
of New York, has undertaken to pro-
vide accommodations for all news
papers who have a right to make ap-
plication to him directly.

CHINESE HOLD
HIGH JlNKS

Madison, Feb. 10.
Great times were had by the Madi-
son Cinnamon at the On Sing shop on
State street last night in honor of the
Chinese new year. F'irecrackers,
rockets and balloons made the night
both hideous and beautiful and fur
nished rare treat for 1000 or more
people. So great was the jam that
the street cars were obliged to stop.
A fearful cannonading was on for sew
eral moments as eight or nine great
lunches of fire crackers, each contain
ing 10000 firecrackers and each cost
ing 81, were set off. The timid people
of the vicinity became alarmed and
asked the police to suppress the sport.
However, no harm resulted and the
Cinnamon showed their good will and
their large-heartedness by giving
every caller at the store a good cigar
Or box of candy. Tonight the China
men will all sit down to a big dinner.

ROMANCE Of
A PICTURE

Chicago, Feb. adam Worth, alias

Napoleon of crime" is dead in Lon

death yesterday all details Of the re
coverey of the celebrated Gainsbor-
ough painting are made public in CHI.
cago. Worth gave William A. PinkeI-
ton a written permission to re~eai the
Gainsborough secret after he had died
Wrapped in oil cloth the canvas was
handed to G. Moreland Agnew last
April in Chicago by Worth. who rs
years before had cut the painting IRON
it's frame in the Agnew galleries n
London
The owner of the picture hurried
back to London for fear the United
States authorities would demand a
custom duty on the work which had
been secreted in THU country fifteen
years. 1t vas while in London that
Worth conceived the idea of carrying
off the Gainsborough picture. The
first plan was to rob the Royal acad-
envy but he changed his mind and di
rected his attention to the Cams
borough painting.
Worth owned a steam yacht and the
canvas was taken aboard and con-
cealed there until he sold the vessel to
Lord Lonsdale. Then he took # TO
Paris and finally brought it 10 America.
In the meantime, Worth was arrested
in Brussels and forced to serve seven
years. Two years ago Pinkerton re-
ceived telegram telling him an i'm
portant letter was at his home. The
letter was from Worth who asked an
interview. Worth said he was gojng
to die and wanted to turn upo a
picture in order that his.
two children who had been educated
at a convent might enjoy the pro
ceeds.
Through a hitch the picture was not
recovered at that time. Worth re-
turned to London and early last spring
fulfilled his bargain.
