world over to younger hands. Who
knows what great task you may yet
accomplish
As you take an active interest in
the worlds work, so, too, should you
continue to participate largely in
the worlds play. Golf and tennis,
riding and sailing are not sacred to
the young, nor are the lively enter
tainments of the parlor. We do not
mea that older women should ape
the dress of youth, or that fatuous
old gentlemen should seek the socie-
ty of maids. You may be interested
in the plays of the young without
being frivolous; you may entertain
with dignity many pleasures and jol-
lities. And as these bring you into
the sensible companionship of young
er people, you are by so much bet
tered.
Especially are open-air pleasures

ills for which the outdoors is not an
admirable and effective medicine.
The decrepitude of age is no excep-
ton. Country walks, little excur-
sions into the open, fresh air in any
form, are admirable as conservatives
of youth. To sit in the house is to
invite infrmity. Charles Waterton,
the English naturalist, climbed a tree
on his eightieth birthday, and his ex-
ample is to be commended.
The society of children, too, keeps
US from growing rusty, and a child
in the house does much to preserve
the youth of the parents. Altogether,
the question of youth or age rests
largely with the individual. Let him
resolve to die young; then the pass
ing of the years will bring small sor-
row., and he may welcome the New
year without lament.-January Wo-
mans Home Companion.

Gillespie. Mrs. Seward and Mr.. and
Mrs. Myron Barbour stand indicted
for murder in the first degree for the
alleged killing of Elizabeth Gillespie.
James is the twin brother of the vic
tim.
Margaret Gillespie, the mother, was
the first to reach her daughter after
abe was shot. The poor old woman
held her loved ones head in her lap
for several minuotes before summoning

Of her son and daughter, just across
the street, she went to q neighbours.
James Gillespie and Mrs. Belle Seward
had not darkened the door of their
parental home for several years, and
had practically ignored the existence
Of the aged woman.
Mrs. Gillespie was witness for the
state. 1t is on her testimony that the
prosecution hopes to base the motives
for the crime-quarrels over marriages
and continued ill treatment of the
twin sister by the twin brother.
The Gillespies are the most promi-
nent and the oldest family in Ohio.

Thadeus Reamy of Cincinnati, an un-
Gle of Mrs. Barbour, is by her side.
1t was DR.. Reamy who, on hearing Of
the arrest of his niece, brought $780,

Myron Barbour. cashier Of the local

widowed mother. Barbour has been
the pet of the community since child
hood and is still regarded by older
residents as boy. They allude TO
him as such. When Myron graduated
from the high school he was taken into
the national bank, where he was rap
idly advanced to the position of cash

Many believe that Barbour's indict-

the jury box and spoke the words in
a monotone. He hoped to spare the
Borrowing mother the pain of hearing
the awful words.
His tender heartedness came for
naught, for one Of the attorneys for
the defense insisted that the prosecu-
tor step back and PROFOUND the ques-
ton so that all could hear. He did so.
The poor woman sat as if transfxed,
when she realized the situation of her
son and daughter.
The little s-year-old daughter Of
Mrs. Carrie Barbour has never been
told Of the plight in which her mother
is placed. Her playmates do not speak
of the case, and to the stttle one the
proceedings now going on are very
strange.
While there is in progress here one
of the chapters of the most startling

SPORTS

Carney and his club were the main
features of the game at the Natatorium
yesterday. Bill got two home runs and
a two-bagger out of five times up. key
Rockenfeld is getting the home run
habit now. He did the trick on Tues
day, again yesterday and says he is due
for another one today He and Carney
it seems both have this very satisfac-
tory habit. Carney is the more fortu-
nate. His honor went over the EAT
on us" sign, which entities him to a
free meal ticket at the Club. His
other long hit went over shoe
ad. and Bill will soon appear in brand
new corn distributors. Ralph Frary
did some hard walloping of the leather,
too.
For wonder, all the lads fielded
well. Ferris at short took some hard
chances, but on two of them, after
making brilliant stops, he tried to
throw the ball over to the street cars.
And Holland, on first, although he
tried hard, didn't have wings, nor any
ballooning attachments.
j. Peck Sharp was boss carpenter
yesterday, all right. Several of the
players got funny with J. Peck and he
shut them up instanter. To start OF
with, his peppers were very punko-
witch, but at the windup Peck was
there with the big rubber, sure enough.
He saw everything, and some things
the fans didn't. A search of j. Peck's
pockets might reveal little belladonna
which he used on his lamps. But
he's getting better.
The weather was so disagreeable the
ladies had to remain home-that is,
most of them. 1t was ladies' day,
too.

ner that was shot at the Elk, and she
couldn't bear to see me all alone out
there in the cold" But Six said he
dasn't take the wine. He got six
months "blind" once for similar
solccism, and, mindful of the majors
warning (this was diplomatic), Six
swore he had sworn off, and had to
refuse the repeated requests of the
lady. He suspicioned her, he said,
because she was so persistent. Then
she laughed and said goodnight and
went on to the hospital. What be-
came of the wine she had poured out?
(This from the grim and hitherto 81
lent doctor, seated by the bedside)
She must have tossed it out or drunk
it herself, perhaps, Six didn't know.
Certainly no trace of it could be
found in the snow. Then nothing hap
Ecned for as much as 20 minutes or
SO, and he was over toward the south
end of his post, but facing toward
the hospital when she came again
down the steps, and this time handed
u good soldier not to drink even
wine, and asked him what were the
lights away across the Platte, and he
couldn't see any, and was following
her pointing finger and staring, and
then all of sudden he saw million
lights dancing and stars and bombs
and that was all he knew till they be-
gan talking to him here in hospital
Something had hit him from behind,
but he couldn't tell what.
Flint's nerve was failing him, for
here was confirmation of the gener-
ais theory.
And so it was with hardened and
resentful heart that the major
sought her on the morrow. The gen
eral and the commands afield would
soon be coming home. Such Indians
as they had not rounded up and
captured were scattered far and
wide. The campaign was over. Now
for the disposition of the prisoners.
1t was to tell Mrs. Hay and Nanette,
especially Nanette, why the sentries
were re-established about their home
that, though he would not place the
traders niece within garrison cell,
he should hold her prisoner beneath
the traders roof to await the action
of superior authority on the grievous
charges lodged at her door. She was
able to be up, said Miss McGrath-
not only up, but downtown in the
breakfast room, looking blither and
more like herself than she had been
since she was brought home.
Say that Maj. Flint desires to see
her and Mrs. Hay" said Flint, with
majesty OF mien, as, followed by two
Of his officers, he was shown into the
traders parlor.
And presently they came-Mrs. Hay
pale and Borrowing; Miss Flower,
pale, perhaps, but triumphantly de-
faint. The one sat and covered her
face with her hands as she listened
to the majors few words, cold, stern
and accusing. The other looked
squarely at him, with fearless, gilt
tering eyes:
"You may order what you like so
far as I'm concerned," was the ut
terly reckless answer of the girl. ~
don't care what you do now that /
know he is safe-free-and that YOU
will never lay hands on him again.

cold-blooded, yet rejoiceful reply. 1t
was for this, indeed, that he had
come. ralph Moreau was run down
