A few minutes before four the next
morning, while it was still black night,
Dudley drew up his rig at Hatfeld's
gate. There was neither sound nor sign
of light in the shanty, SO the driver made
a huge noise and prepared to wait.
Scarcely 80 seconds passed before Hat
field appeared in the clothes he had worn
the night before. Dudley turned his
lantern upon the gaunt figure.
GO an git yer rubber boots he COM
manded, laughingly. Cant do 'thout
EN-
Hatfield obeyed silently, and two min
utes later was driven rapidly toward
Titman lake. The horse was fastened
on the high rail and Dudley led the way
to the cove.
you've got the best gun, y the man OF
experience 12-gauge ham
merless. Press down that little lever on
the left side an you cock her. No
don't cock her yit She's loaded"
They had mile to walk. The day
was gathering.
"S-sh-h!" warned Dudley. We're
purity nigh thar. Ye don't want t skeer
'em! BY cripes, but ye're fool with a
gum"
did you say that you press this left
lever down to cock the piece-both bar
rels?" Hatfield gasped.
Sure whispered Dudley. "The
lakes yonder. Dye see it?"
Titman was ahead, showing up pearl

hangs over bog.
"S-sh-h!" warned Dudley. "Thar's a
flock down in the cove-hear EN-
Well get bunch-fust shot!"
They crept on. Dudley turned at last,
his body bent behind an artificial blind
in the edge Of the bluff over the cove.
His arm was raised to further command
silence.
Hatfield was crouched, too. The
nerves Of the man wrung horrid scream
from his throat before the crash of the
gun.
That instant it seemed that the whole
lake ratified and clacked, but the sound
was merely from the cove where the
vast flock was rising. +. Hatfield saw
the other sink upon his gun, his chin and
throat blotch of deep color.
Two or three hours later Hatfield S
brain assumed command of surviving
faculties. He was two miles away on
the far shore of old Silver He was
harboring a world of ancient pas
sion - that of killing himself The
lake was there, but it did not ap-
peal. The knife in his pocket Mortified.
He wanted one more shell. Dudley had
given him two, but both barrels were
empty. There were innumerable shells
on Dudley's body. He started back, run
ming.
The place was changed. Dudley was
not there! Other hunters had come to
the blind Hatfield searched on his
hands and knees for one dropped shell
Thus he was found by those who required
him.
The twelve wise men adjudged him in
sane after many days, but the woman
who knew most, yet who had done no
wrong-remained to weep. = Chicago

a dispatch from Ying-Kow said that a bat

SALOONKEEPERS LOSE
A LARGE SIZED WAD
Superior Men Are Robbed of Cash,
, Checks, Etc, to the Amount of $4,000

Special to The Globe
SUPERIOR, Wis, Sept. 12-Bisson
Bros, proprietors of the Head of the
Lakes saloon. We're robbed today of
cash, checks and certificates of deposit
amounting to about $4,000 Of this
amount $1,000 were in certificates of
deposit, on which the firm is fully pro-
tected. There was $400 cash, while the
checks made up the balance. The firm
had been cashing large number of
pay checks made out to bearer. All
OF them were indorsed, so there is q
possibility that some of them may
have been negotiated before the mer-
chants and business men were notified
by the police not to handle them.
The plumber was in a satchei which
Moses Bison took to his room this
morning. He retired and threw the
Satchel behind the bed. He supposed
he locked the door, but when his
brother Henry went to the room the
door was unlocked and the Satchel
gone. 1t is supposed that some one
who had seen the firm put the money
in the satchel and was familiar with
the conditions went to the room and
committed the robbery.
