Il do not think it is any Of these"
Rothgar said slowly, "I think it is
because he likes it SO well that he
has got peace in which to amuse him
self. Sooner would he hunt than
fight, any day; and l have often seen
him express pleasure in this manner"
The Norwegian plunged again into
the general discussion; and the son
of Lodbrok stood listening discon-
tentedly. while he kept a sharp watch
of the low-browed entrance.
Presently his patience was reward
ed. Within the hut there arose all
at once a duet of voices, half angrily
accusing, half laughingly protesting.
Then the chessboard came flying
through the doorway, followed by
handful of chessmen and the person
Of the big good-natured Jarl. still ut
tering his laughing protests. And
finally Canute himself stood under
the Intel, storming through his
laughter.
"Blockhead. that you cannot keep
your thoughts on what you are doing!
One might expect as good a game
from the tumbler's dog. You de-
serve"
ITO lose the honor of playing with
the King" the Jotun broke in, max
ing long step forward. BE SO good
as to allow me to take his place, lord.
l have some words for your ear
which are worth hearing"
"Rothgar!" the King exclaimed
with great cordiality. and stepped
from the doorway to meet him. "Wil-
lingly do make the change, for
have been wishing to speak with you
this last hour. have thought of
fne plan for to-morrow's sport"
Laying his arm boy-fashion across
his foster-brother's shoulders, he
swung him around toward the river.
But we will not go in there to do
our talking. We will walk along the
shore. Tonight l feel as though l
could walk to the rainbow bridge"
AS they strolled beside the moonlit
water, the son of Lodbrok listened in
secret amazement to the string of
plans that unfolded itself-hunts and
horse races, swimming matches and
fishing trips.
But where will you get the fishing
tackle, lord? And the hawks and the
hounds for all this?" he ventured
presently.

Wonderful Advance Of Science.

Wonderful as were the scientific
achievements Of the nineteenth cen
fury. it seems certain, that in the do
main of applied science and invention,
the twentieth century will far surpass
it. We doubt very much, however, that
anyone will be able to produce a safer
or more reliable remedy for stomach
liver or kidney ills than Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. 1t was a nineteenth
century production, being first intro
duced so years ago, and to this day
represents the limit of science in pro

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
|Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
iniamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing. and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infiamed condition OF
the mucous services.

Denver Man Identifies Murderer.

Chicago. Feb. 12.-Pawnbroker Sally
of Denver stepped from the witness
stand in Judge Kersteu's court yester-
day. and, leveling a finger at Peter
Neidermier. pointed him II as "Mr,
Smith of Denver. from whom he re-
ceived a revolver in pawn in his shop
at Denver. September 3 last. within a
week after the bandits, Neidermier,
Van Dine and Marx. made their charge
OF murder and robbery upon the car
barn employees when Cashier Stewart
and Mortorman Johnson were slain,
The revolver referred to was identified
by the pawnbrOker and shown to the
jury. Previously it was identified as
one of the pair stolen from the car
barn office during the robbery. Marx
also pawned a revolver with Louis Hy,
man, another pawnbroker in Denver
at the same time.
The revolver disposed of by MARI
to Hyman was the property of the City
Railway company. When it was hand
ed up to the pawnbroker for inspection
Marx, usually solemn-visaged broke III
to a broad grin, as also did Neidermier
who was identified by Hyman as being
with Marx when the latter as w. H
Turner of Denver disposed of the re

DIVISION MAY BE DIVIDED UP
AMONG THE OTHER ST.
PERINTENDENTS.
Reports That r. r. Sutherland VIII
Take W. A. Deuel's Place as Su-
p"erintendent of the Nebraska Divi-
sion-Changes Necessary to Re
duce Expenses.

Although no official announcement
has as yet been made, says the Omaha
Bee, it is generally understood among
railroad men connected with the Rock
Island and Union Pacific that r. r,
Sutherland, superintendent of the
Rock Island at Topeka, has resigned
his position with that company and
will in a short time assume the duties
of superintendent of the Nebraska
division of the Union Pacific.
Mr.. Sutherland was formerly assis'
tart superintendent of the Nebraska
division of the Union Pacific. He was
Appointed to the position which he has
recently held with the Roch Island by
j. NJ. Gruber. who is now general su'
perintendent of the Union Pacific, and
it is said to be through the influence OF
Mr.. Gruber that he is coming here.
w. A. Duel is the present superinten'
dent of the Nebraska division of the
Union Pacific and just what provi'
sions will be made for him under the
new arrangement is not at present
known. 1t is believed. however, that
a general readjustment of the superin'
tendency of the lines of the system is
to be made and he is to receive a pro,
motion.
The first change in the general plans
has just been announced. According
to the announcement which was effec'
tive February 10, the Office Of assistant
Superintendent at Green River, Wyo.,
has beef abolishd and the jurisdic'
ton of W. A. Whitney. assistant SUI.
perindent at Cheyenne, has been ex'
tended over the middle district. H. V,
Hilliker has been appointed assistant
superintendent of the western district
and Park City branch, vice c. NJ. Ward,
resigned.
The next change which probably will
be made will be a redistricting of the
Nebraska. Wyoming. Kansas and Col
orado divisions, which will result in
the discontinuance of the Colorado di
vision. over which Superintendent H
C. Ferris has control. The line in
divided among the Kansas, Nebraska
and Wyoming divisions. This plar
was considered, and it was practically
decided to put it into execution some
time ago, but the merchants and ship
pers of Colorado objected SO strenu
ously to the removal Of the division
headquarters from Denver that it was
finally abandoned, but the news comes
from Denver now that the change has
become necessary to reduce expenses
and it will be no longer delayed.

Fort Collins. Colo. Feb. IA mob
OF would-be lynchers was cleverly out
witted at La Porte Wednesday night
when Deputy Shurif RichaTt placed
William Towne of Fort Collins in a
vehicle drawn by two fast horses and
drove him to the Weld county Jail at
Greeley. where he will be held pend
ing the result of the CoroneT's inquest
which continued its investigation into
the killing of William Gardner. fore
man at the Ingleside quarry near La
Porte. Towne shot Gardiner in the
back without the slightest p~rOvocation.
it is said, and friends and neighbOrs of
the dead mar gathered to lynch his
slayer. Towne had been taken from
Fort Collins to La Porte as a witness
at the %coroner's inquest hich sat at
that place. Friends of Gardner pre-
sumed that Towne would be kept at
La Porte all night and they figured
that it would be easy to overpower
Sheriff Richart. take his prisoner from
him and string him up. Richart was
warned of the scheme and while the
would-be lynchers We're organizing,
placed Towne in a carriage and drove
him to Greeley as fast as the horses
could travel.
The latest story of the shooting is
that Towne and another man became
involved in a drunken quarrel and that
Gardner, who vas perfectly sober. act
ed as peacemaker. This greatly anger
ed Towne. who secured a Winchester
and started for Gardner. The latter
was unarmed n started to run when
Towne took deliberate aim and shot
him in the back. the bullet passing en-
tirely through the body. coming out
above the heart.
