Dogs have their captains and COM
manders in the chase, and they follow
their leaders in way that shames the
practices Of men at times" said the
man who is fond of the hunt. Really,
l have often thought that man could
profit great deal by going to the dog
for examples of virtuous conduct, and
I'm still inclined to believe that his
civic virtues would be strengthened
somewhat by closer observation of
the good there is in the dog. Going
to the dogs is used in reproach. Liv-
ing as some men live is infinitely
worse. Some men have all the dogs
faults without showing any of the
dogs virtues. But | was thinking of
the captains and commanders in the
chase. Dogs pay each other fine cour-
tesy if they are good dogs and well
trained. The dog who would run
ahead of the dog who is the accepted
and acknowledged leader of the pack
or who would show him the discour-
tesy of crossing the line of pursuit
ahead of him would be disgraced
damned and stunned by its fellows
The leader is to be followed. Dogs be
hind him may be fieeter of foot. But
he is the leader, and that settles it
And, my, how sensitive some of these
old dog leaders are! How jealous they
are of their rights! | have seen then
quit the chase because some green
member of the pack crowded in ahead
OF them. They would simply quit the
trail, get in behind their master, and
that would be the end of their frolick
ing that day. Dogs are great fellows
when you come to know them. New

CHAPTER VII.

After supper Warde was busy In his
office writing resume of the facts
brought out in the Wright case and
was employing considerable skill in
oaking prominent the unexplained
EIDE of the crime. He knew very well
low the other morning paper, the
sournal. would treat il; how it would

old proverb murder will out" would
be worked into it's weary place again
for the edification of those who like
their crime mulled with bit of NOR

really sl<llfui way to emphasize the
mystery in which the case was in
volved. and to crss te doubt in Young
Wright's favor. il was while he was
occupied thus that he realized fully
how strong chain of evidence had
been wrought around the man he be-
leved TO be innocent. How was it
possible for an innocent man to have
got himself tangled up in this way?
While he was working away at his
task. Detective Fenton entered the Of

he had NO objection 10 making pub

Warde's suspicious were now
