IDENTIFICATION COMPLETE.
The Remains of Former Supt. B.
Egan Taken to Spokane.

CSdH AIKEN TO spokane.
The body of Supt. B. F. Egan was
taken to Spokane Tuesday morning
on No. 1, and was buried in that
city Wedne sday. Harry and Charles
Egan. cousins of the deceased, ac-
companied the remains. Mrs. Egan
intended to come to Kalispell, but
was unable to do so. The coroner's
jury, impaneled on the spot where
the body was found, viewed the re-
mains while they lay at the morgue,
and afterward held the inquest. The
only testimony introduced was that
of the party who found the body,
and the identification of the remains
by Messrs. Houston. The latter was
only a formality as there never was
any doubt felt as to the identity of
the body.
After hearing the testimony, the
jury returned the following verdict:
I'VE, the coroner's jury, after hay
ing heard the evidence of all the
many witnesses, and after having
made a careful and close examina-
ton of the remains of B. F.. Egan,
deceased, where the same was found
in the mountains near Lake Five, in
Flathead county, hereby render the
following verdict:
1--WE fully believe that Ben. F.
Egan met his death on or about No
vember 4, 1902, by falling and strik-
ing his head upon dead log with
snags upon the same, and that when
he fell his head struck the said log
and the snag thereon, rendering him
unconscious, after which he chilled
and died, never regaining conscious
ness.

The finding of the body insures

money, that the various companies
had withheld until undisputed proof
of her husbands death could be
made.

CHAPTER VI.-CoNrINUED.


Now he saw changes on every hand.
Buildings belonging to the various
college fraternitieS were dotted along
the hillside where, in his day, there
had been open fields. He looked for
a grape-vineyard that an injudicious
husbandman had persisted in cult
waiting to the vast delight of the stu
dents, but it had disappeared. The
little wooden arbor half way up the
hill had been replaced by more i'm
posing structure built in part of
hewn stone. He saw the venerable
form of his favorite professor, APP
parently untouched by the lapse of
the years, sitting beneath his tree
uncovered porch, and the desire was
strong in Rossiter's heart to go in
and take him once again by the hand,
but a glance at his own attire, thread
bare and weather-stained, though he
had succeeded in freshening it some
what. restrained him.
1t was with a thrill of pleasure that
he came, just before reaching the hill
crest, to the row of ancient LON
hardy poplars. stately trees that had
detied the winter winds for well-nigh
century. They had a greeting for
him. Here we are" they seemed to
say, lust as we were when you
tramped up and down beneath us, and
We're glad to see you back" They,
at least, did not notice the altered ap-
pearance of the erewhile spruce
young man.
A flood of recollections swept upon
him as he turned into the campus.
Here there were new buildings and
more prosperous air than of old, but
the general effect was the same, and
struck Rossiter more than ever be-
fore as beautiful and impressive. The
hall in which he had roomed was
locked, so he roamed on, wandering
about at will and meeting no one, bet
ter pleased to have it so, finding am
pie companionship in the talking
trees and in his own memories. By
and by he strayed down into the coli
lege burying ground, little hedge
girdled God's-acre just under the
brow Of the hill. where some of the

upon his throat told its startling tale
And, moreover. he had not to deal
with creature moved by the ordi-
nary human emotions, but with a
reused and Infatuated beast. terrible
with a beasts unrestrained passions.
The sound of Miss Densmore's foot
steps was the signal for Dawson to
renew the attack. His hairy face
was lowered. and seemed to sink be-
tween his shoulders With powerful
arms outstretched, he hurled himself
towards Rossiter like hideous
ourang-outang. There was no mis-
taking the CLEAN in his eyes. In his
present mood to come within the
grasp of those arms meant speedy
closing to life's chapter.
Rum" cried Rossiter once more to
the girl.
He would at least so manage the
encounter that Miss Densmore would
have an opportunity to get beyond
the clutches of this monster. provided
she would avail herself of the brief
respite he could offer her. Had the
reaction from her fright rendered
her incapable of fleeing? He did not
dare look about as he leaped agilely
now this way and now that, eluding
the raging creature who pursued him,
but he thought that she might still be
crouching not far away, too exhaust
ed to fly, gave him intense agony of
mind
Suddenly Dawson turned from him
with an oath, leaped the adjacent
rivulet. and plunged into the wood.
But little more than so yards distant
ROSsiter was aware of Miss Dens-
more's retreating figure. He too
crossed the little stream at bound.
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1903-10-21

Dawson flung look back over hi
shoulder. In the race he had per
haps Is feet the advantage, but Ros-
sitter was the more nimble, and the
gap between them speedily narrowed.
Soon the two men were not more
than five feet apart, and then Daw-
son tripped and sprawled headlong.
The root upon which he caught his
foot, like wary wrestler. flung him
sideways. His crown crushed
against tree-trunk. and he collapsed
into an inert mass. The pole-puller,
thinking him dead. bent over him, to
discover that he was only stunned.
STOPPING above the repulsive and
evil face, an itching crept into Rossi-
ter's fingers to seize the hairy throat
and choke out the foul life once for
all. Then question smote him, and
he started back. Would the path he
had followed until so short time
previous ever have led him to be-
come such n loathsome thing? He
shuddered. With this later thought
that which had cried murder in
his ears slipped from him. Now he
recalled Miss Densmore, and glanced
quickly about. A score of yards away
stood the girl, her figure tense, her
eyes burning upon him in the green
gloom. He fastened towards her.
Us he dead?" she asked. almost
in whisper, as he drew near.
NO" he returned, land more's the
pity.-though perhaps I shouldn't
only CT
She made no reply, but began
walking forward by his side INSTEAD
lily. He saw that she was shaking
from head to foot. and he did not
know what to do or say. Would she
bear up? he wondered. 1t was sheer
grit that was keeping her from Civ
ing way, that was evident. Why
didn't her cousin appear? Where was
she all this time? If she had re-
turned to the house for any reason,
it was taking her Internationally
long to make the trip there and back,
it seemed to him.
All at once Miss Densmore turned
her drawn face, into which the blood
now flowed, towards Rossiter.
"Oh, can't thank you," she be-
gan, there are no words"
He cut her short.
81 did nothing he said. Fate. or
whatever you like to call it, protected
you. But how did you chance to be
alone?'
''Miriam-Miss Merton-went up to
the house for book. We had come
down to the spring at the wood-edge
to read, and by mistake she brought
the wrong novel. She insisted on GO
ing to change it.
Sylvia. Sylvia.'s' a voice, in which
there was a note of alarm, cried at
this juncture.
Eyes, here I am" responded Miss
Densmore, and an instant later she
and Rossiter stepped into the log
cling road a short distance from the
spring and its shielding willow-tree,
beneath which Miss Merton was
standing.

Of the civilized nations we can trace,
we're lacemakers and weavers. in so far
that we know they pulled threads and
decorated the borders of their linen;
from Jewish records we know that they,
as people, both made and appreciated
fine needlework. Thence on to Rome and

easy course, and in the middle ages we

It was the religious prosecutions on the
continent which drove lace-workers
over to England in the sixteenth century.

A Wise Horse.

An Anthony man who is fond of
animals tells a story of a horse he
used to own, who rustled his own feed.
The horse exercised IN a lot that led
up to the grauary, Q and in grazing
about the lot, came to a heap of oats
that had leaked out of the granary.
He ate them, and nosing around for
more, could smell them in the bin,
and in his impotence he paved the
air. striking the corner of the building
aud causing another handful of oats
to rattle down. 1t only took about
three lessons for him to learn that if
knocked, it was answered by a hand
full of oats, and the owner Of the horse
lay awake, nights to devise way to
cure him of the annoying habit of
paving the granery. When the cause
was finally located, and the leaks
patched, he paved corner out of the
bin in his persistence and finally had
to be fenced off from the building.
