Why he shouted the

me that l was about to get the other.

port, and my right arm dropped, be-
numbed by a charge Of buckshot. SeiZ-
ing my weapon with my left hand, I
brought it TO level with the eyes be-
hind the fence and fired. There was a
sound of body falling, and I knew
that l had struck home.
Squirting my horse to the side Of the
road, craned my neck over the fence,
md there in the ditch lay the BUSH
whacker. His hat had fallen off and
left bare a head of red, shocky hair.
In his belt was his revolver, beside him

water, which flowed lazily past. The
sun. shining through budding branches,
lighted up his face, and knew that l
had seen him before. Indeed, a vivid
scene in which he had borne a part

''Is he dead?'
Startled at the sound Of a voice, I
glanced aside. There, leaning against
the fence, her arms resting ON the top
rail. gazing at the disagreeable sight ON
which had been intent, stood young
girl.

looked again at the upturned face. with
Its CLASSY. staring eyes.
'Why did you kill him?"

But I did not tell her then, for as I

Carbolic Acid Is Popular
as Method Of Suicide

st. Paul has no Suicide club, but dur

found reason to decide to curtail their
time Of toiling for the trusts. In this
Connection many very interesting, If
gruesome, facts come to the surface,
facts gathered in the course of their
duty by medical men and the police.
Opinions concerning the morality or
even expediency of suicide have always
differed as widely as those concerning
anything else, though probably with
larger stationary majority upon one
side-that of the opposition.

for the summer encampment of mis-

Second regiment will probably hold it's

A movement is on foot in this city to
organize a troop Of cavalry, but it is
the intention of the movement to
secure admission to the national guard
they are likely to be disappointed
Minnesota has had all the experience
1t wants with troop Of cavalry. It
is a costly arm and very hard to keep
up. Wisconsin appropriates $4,000 per
year for horses for its troop alone. 1t
it understood that Tom Brennan, of the
st. Paul Lee company is at the head
of the movement. An independent
troop might be organized, but it would
be hard work to enforce the discipline
that is necessary.

lutions:
We, the citizens OF Salem. and vicin-
ity, in mass meeting assembled, do
hereby resolve:
That we deplore the terrible con-
dition into which our town and COM
munity have been thrown as a result
OF encouraged lawlessness and deeply
regret that we have been compelled
TO seek redress from the county oifi-
Gals, when we had right to expect
the enforcement of our municipal
laws.
2.-That we hail with delight the
dawning OF brighter day as our peo-
pie awake TO the condition and are
crying out for fair, impartial and
conservative enforcement OF law.
3.-That we urge that our municipal
and statutory laws be enforced as they
now stand, and that we favor the
enactment OF such laws from time to
time as shall be needed to secure the
enjoyment OF rights and privileges to
all.
4.-That we favor better streets,
pavements and crossings, better facili-
ties for fighting fire, and iudicious
expenditure OF our money 20 secure
the same, and that we further favor
every legitimate means for the build
ing up of Salem.
THAT we pledge ourselves to
stand by each other in this laudable
purpose to secure peace ana safety for
ourselves, our children and our neigh
bors, and that we will not be scared
fromscur guns by the cry that is being
made that business is being ruined,
knowing as we do that the prosperity
and happiness OF people depend in a
large degree upon their righteous laws
and fair dealings with each other.
6.-That we hereby pledge ourselves
to be content with nothing short of
the complete and utter overflow of the
speakeasy, the gambling den and the
house of prostitution In our midst and
to this end we will work and pray to
a finish.
