ing across Pend d'Oreille lake from

unition.
Sheriff Whitney and Policemen Saw
yer and Moran started for the scene .of
the robbery Arriving there they sue
ceeded in tracing the negroes up the

ed the tracks of the latter, and Shortly

the head. with the empty gun by his
side. He was alive, but died within

his shoes.

six feet high, weighing nearly 200
pounds, aged 26 years, wearing dark,
seedy clothes and light hat with a
medium broad rim. He is beloved to

He Was Shot
From the Bushes


St Maries, Idaho, Aug. 24.-The de-
liberate assassination of Ed Boulley on
the trail between Marble creek and
Mica creek, is shown by late reports of
the killing Saturday. First reports
were that N. Lindsay had been killed
with him, but Lindsay escaped with a
bullet through his arm.
Boulley and Lindsay were accused
of being claim jumpers, and feeling
has been running high against them
About two months ago Boulley was
shot and wounded in similar case.
and his companion at that time was
killed.
Lindsay gives the following account
of the shooting:
'Boulley and | were at the creek
getting water, and Boulley was stoop-
ing over to take a drink, when / heard
the report Of a gun and he fell over on
to me.
Il ran for the trees, and while run
ming bullet struck me in the arm.
Not soul could be seen anywhere. the
shots coming from thick brush.
From behind tree, | saw 10 bullets
pumped into Boulley s PROSTATE body. "
All parties supposed to have anv
knowledge of the affair are reticent.
and an effort will apparently be made
to shield the murderer or murderers.
and the officers can count on little aid
from the settlers.

Three distinct theories of the killing
ire advanced. One is that Boulley and
Tyler were killed and Lindsay shot at

A second is that Lindsay and Boulley
killed Tyler and later quarreled, and

United States

The United States government does
not intend to insist upon the neutrality
or China. 1t does not intend to insist
that the Russian warships now in the

or be forced from their present haven.
LII does not intend in any way to pre-

between thSs. Ivy officials
with president RoosS eIC at Oyster Bay
over the long distance telephone
Instructions in accordance with this
decision were sent to Rear Admiral
Sterling, in charge of the Asiatic
squadron, now at Shanghai.
An impression exists at the capital
that Consul General Goodnow may
have unintentionally paved the way to
committing this government to main
tenance of the neutrality Of China
when he called the recent meeting of
the foreign representatives to take such
action as was deemed necessary. But
before that meeting had assembled a
cablegram had been sent him to care
fully abstain from any action that
could be deemed to be interference.
The fact that the conference was pro
ductive of no understanding is taken to
mean that when the other representa-
tives discovered that the United States
consul general had no plan to propose
they discreetly decided to await in-
structions from their home offices.

The stealthy couple found the cave
and spent an hour or more within its
walls, sallying forth after the tardy
darkness had crept down over the
mountain and into the peaceful valley.
Then began the tortuous descent. Quin-
noX in the lead, they walked. crawled
and ran down the narrow path,
| bruised, scratched and aching by the
time they reached the topmost of the
summer houses along the face of the
mountain. After this walking was
easier, but stealthiness made their
progress slow. Frequently as they
neared the base they were obliged to
dodge behind houses or to drop into
the bitches by the roadside in order 10
avoid patrolling police guards or Ak
phain sleuthhOunds.
At last, stiff and sore, they stole into
the narrow streets of Edelweiss. Lor-

He had truly been out of the world.
Not until this instant did he fully ap-
preciate the dread that possesses a
man who is being hunted down by
tireless foes. Never did mans heart
go out in gratitude and trustfulness as
did his toward the strong defender
whose sinewy arm he clasped as if in
terror.
"You understand what this means to

paused to rest. "She will call me your
murderer and curse me for my miser-
able treason l am the first to dishon-
or the name of Quincox."

THAT AWFUL PALPITATlON,
Short Breath, Dizzy. Faint,
Sinking Feeling!
They Mean That You Have
Weak IL cart and Weak Nerves.
Heart Failure and Sudden Death Snre
Unless You Do the Right Thing Now.

Failure or weakness of heart action
isvery prevalent. 1t is most serious
and dangerous condition to be in.
The first symptoms may be very
slight, and apparently trivial.
But do not fail to heed them if you
value your life. The warnings are
plain and unmistakable.
Nervousness and weakness, swim
ming of the head, strange, faint feel
ings, trembling, short breath, sinking
sensation, GOODNESS of feet and legs,
fiuttering or palpitation in left side of
the chest, feeling of apprehension or
anxiety as of impending danger,
drowsiness daytimes, sleeplessness at
night.
A little over exertion, excitement
or emotion may bring on the attacks
at any time. Sudden rising from
STOPPING or reclining position will
cause dizziness, and rapidly climbing
stairs will make the heart palpitate,
produce WEAKNESS and shortness of
breath. In some cases there are
pains in the region of the heart, but
in most cases there is no pain what
ever.
Neglect of these symptoms will
result in heart failure, spasms or
neuralgia of the heart, or death.

CHAPTER XII.


"HE Princess Yetive had not
IN flinched a hairs breadth from
d. the resolution formed on that
stormy night when she sacri-
feed pride and duty on the altar Of
love and justice. Prince Bolaroz's ulti-
matum overwhelmed her, but she arose
from the wreckage that was strewn
about her conscience and remained
loyal, steadfast and true to the man in
the monastery. To save his life was
all she could hope to accomplish, and
this she was bound to do at any cost.
She could be nothing to him, not even
friend. So long as he lived he would
be considered the murderer of Lorenz,
and until the end a price would hang
over his head. She, Princess of Grau-
stark, had offered a reward for him.
For that reason he was always to be a
fugitive, and she least of all could
hope to see him. There had been a
brief, happy dream, but it was swept
away by the unrelenting rush of real
ity. The mere fact that she, and she
alone, was responsible for his fight
placed between them an unsurmount-
able barrier.
Clinging tenaciously to her purpose.
she was still cognizant Of the debt she
owed the trusting, loving people of
Graustark One word from her could
avert the calamity that was to fall
with the dawn of the fatal Goth. All
Graustark blindly trusted and adored
her. To undeceive them would be to
administer a shock from which they
could never recover.

CHAPTER XXI.
FROM A WINDOW ABOVE.

FROM A WINDOW ABOVE.
"HE longest month in Lorry's
life was that which followed
FL his romantic fight from the
tower. To his impatient mind
the days were irksOme weeks. The cold
monastery was worse than prison.
He looked from its windows as con-
Wet looks through his bars, always
hoping, always disappointed. With
each of the infrequent visits of Cap
tain Quinnox his heart leaped at the
prospect of liberty, only to sink deeper
in despair upon the receipt of emphatic
though kindly assurances that the time
had not yet come for him to leave the
haven of safety into which he had been
thrust by loving hands.
The prior was kind to him. Every
thing that could be done to provide
comfort where comfort was q stranger
was employed in his behalf. He lived
we'll until his appetite deserted him.
He had no questions to answer, for no
one asked why he was there; he had
no danger TO fear, for no foe knew
where he lived. From the city came
the promise of ultimate escape, verbal
messages from those who loved him,
news of the world-all at long inter
walls. however. Quinnox's visits were
like sunbeams to him. The dashing
captain came only at night and in dis
guise. He bore verbal messages. a
wise precaution against mishap. Not
once did he hiring word of love from
the princess. an omission which caused
the fugitive deep misery until a ray OF
intelligence showed him that she could
not give to Quinnox the speeches from
her heart, proud woman that she was.
Anguish sent words of cheer, with
