home this ls>morning by a milk boy. The
head and upper part of his body was
covered with wounds and bruises.
There are a number of theories of the
murder The police say the wounds
may have been made by a burglars
jimmy. Blood spattered over the
walls and Railways shows he made a
desperate fight for his life.
His brother-in.law, with whom he
boarded is said TO have stated that he
heard a woman's voice in the vesti.
bule early this morning. Some of the
officers have a theory the murder was
done by a woman, aided by one or
more men. The only clue the police
have are bloody foot prints extending
from the house.
The police later arrested Donald
Kennedy, aged a. on the charge of
having murdered Mcmahon.

4 HERO.

IT 0 be a hero must you do some deed
With which your name shall ring
the world around?-
With blade uplifted must you dare to
lead
Where armies reel on slopes with
lightning crowned?
Or must you set for polar seas your
sails.
And chart the Arctic's silent realms
OF snow?
Or drag your barge through virgin
streams in pales
of undiscovered lands? tell you no!
Who is earth's greatest hero? He that
bears
Deep buried in his kingly heart his lot
OF suffering; and, if need be, he that
dares
Lay down his life for right. and falters

enough to feed the mouths at home until
he should return; adding that there was
at least plenty to eat in the country
and he would not starve.
Carrie watched him with a heavy
heart as he disappeared down the mud
dy street, picking his way here and there
over the half-melted snow. Poor fell

TIE roads in the country! He looked
so weak and wan. As for themselves.
they had plenty of fuel, for the coal
mines were near by, and Johnson had
that morning picked up enough coal
along the railroad tracks to last till his
return; they could keep warm, and there
vas enough to eat.
Johnson was not more successful in
the country than he had been in the
city. The farmers appeared to be afraid
of him. They ''sicked" dogs on him
when he approached their places; indeed.
the dogs seemed to be trained to sick"
themselves on all strangers. It was only
occasionally that he could find an oppor-
tuntty to talk with any person on a
farm.
We've been overrun with tramps this
winter" said a kindly faced old lady at
a farm house. as she handed him some
food at the kitchen door. Many of them
are good appearing fellows, too. just
like yourself. " she went on. Poor men,
They cant all be bad. Why is it that
so many men are out of work? It didn't
use to be this way. A good many OF
these tramps are bad men, though Many
of our neighbors have lost chickens and
stock by them"
Jim ate the cold food passed out to
him at back doors. and slept in hay
stacks and lofts during the entire three
days of his tour through the country.
At the end of that time he returned
home, glad indeed to see Carrie and the
children again; glad, too, to escape from
! further wanderings through a region
where it seemed the hand Of every man
was against him, where every man who
met him appeared to suspect him as a
thief or to shun him as a tramp.
He reached his house about o'clock
in the morning. Carrie and the chill
dren were just getting up. He was cold.

there came a knock on the front door.
johnson rose and opened it. As he did
so a man outside showed his foot be
tween the door and the casing. so that
it could NOT be closed. He followed this
I'D by forcing his way inside. pressing
past Johnson, who stood with the knob
in his hand. half endeavoring to close
the door against this rude intruder. As
the fellow set his foot inside. he called
to a man behind him: Come on. Bill;
come right into the house"
What do you want here?'' demanded
Johnson
I want that furniture, that's what
want" replied the man angFiIy. There
amt been on installments paid on these
things for over four months, and I'm
not going to stand this any longer. I
want my goods back. an come here
to take EN- back. They're my things
till all the instaIlments are paid; the
lease is in default when you've missed

four. There's the lease, you can see for
yourself; but you understand all abou;
it as well as I do

legal-looking paper and proffered it to

peered out through the doorway. fur

johnson was excited and frightened.
You wouldn't take this little fur
niture away from my family after all
the money I've paid you?" he expostu-
lated; I've paid you the full amount of
your original bill; what I owe you now
is merely interest"
But the man was apparently not dis
turbed by reflections on the Conse-
quences of his act as they might bear
on the Johnson family. He had in mind
one thing-the fact that the law was on
his side in taking that furniture; and
he was not dispIeased that the oDpor-
tunity should come to him to secure all
the goods he had sold, at the same time
retaining all the money he had been
paid for them. IN reply TO Johnson
statement about the only money owing
being interest, he said.
That makes no difference, it's money
due just the same, an you amt paid it.
These things are mine, an want EN-. -

You miserable villain" he cried, get
out of my house. or III throw you into
the street."
He rushed at the man, but the staIwart
fellow brushed him aside and called his
attention to the fact that there's a
policeman just outside. an if you go to
kickin' up any row about this thing you'll
find yourself in jail. Take down that bed.
Bill" he added.
Carrie screamed as she saw her hus-
band throw himself forward at the man.
and she ran toward him. As he was push
ed away she caught him in her arms and
refused to release him. NO. no. Jim,''
she implored him. Let them take every
thing; come away, Jim, don't get your
self into troubIe!"
It was impossible for Johnson to ex-
tricate himself from the grasp which
his wife had upon him; she chung to him
like vine. In vain did he tell her that
they were losing all that they had saved
in three years; she replied, Let them
take it; don't leave mel Stay here, Jim,
stay here!"
While the little family remained hud-
