 They might, George They raised a rumpus here about a year ago, you know-whippin' niggers in Nigger- town.'
 Later in the morning Buckley met the town marshal, Joe Batey, on the street. The officer wore a broad brim- med hat dark blue suit of clothes with brass buttons and carried a po- licemanss club strapped to his wrist. George gravely explained the situation to him, but the officer refused to con. cern himself in the matter.
 Look y here, George Buckley" he snid. Do you reckon I'm paid measly town wages to do both town and coun- ty work? Eff the sheriff cayn't keep down them riots over thar in the noun tains, cayn't.

What you goin to do with man like that2 He's no ornament to the community"
 Well, I only thought I'd let you know the situation" George smiled as he walked on. "All want to do is to save the fellows neck"
 George saw no more of Jeff Truitt that day. He had some important cal culations to make in connection with the sale of certain large quantities of cotton to mills in the east. and he was closely occupied in his office till past midnight. When he had finished he

went to the front door of the ware house to get a breath Of fresh air be- fore retiring. He did not feel sleepy. Such work as he had been doing usu. ally had contrary effect on him. Sud, denly he heard a shout up the street in the direction of the Johnston House, a revolver was fired, and gruff voice cried out, Thar he goes, boysl' This was followed by a chatter of many feet on the brick sidewalk, a storm of furious ejaculations and sti- fled oaths, and then dark human bill low rushed down the street in Buck ley's direction. It was a mob pursu- ing Jeff Truitt.
 Hardly knowing why he did 1t, George ran into his office and secured his big revolver from the drawer of his desk and turned back quickly to the door. He was just in time, for the mob, numbering fifty or more, was not ten yards away. Painting and almost out of breath, Jeff Truitt came bound ing along ahead of them and just out of their grasp. He was making for the warehouse with the instinct that there, and there alone, lay some chance for escape. He gasped out something to George and darted past him into the warehouse
 "Halt!" George thundered, his re- volver leveled at the man in the lead. Halt or I'll blow your brains outw

 There was swerving back from the weapon in Buckley's steady hand. Si- fence fell-a threatening silence. The cooking of revolver somewhere in the crowd sounded clearly.

The democracy Of the empire state
is almost hopelessly divided between
the Hill and the Tammany factions.
Tammany Is insisting that the state
convention, which is to be held April

the national convention.
Leader Murphy wants an unin-
structed delegation. SO that New York
can join the Cleveland stampede which
Tammany hopes to inaugurate. Da-

The southern democrats are willing
to take almost any man that New
York and Illinois would present, ex-
cept Grover Cleveland.
The southerners have no objection
to the delegation being instructed for
Judge Parker If the concurrence OF
Tammany could be assured. But they
know from bitter experience that. with
Tammany sulking, the party would
probably be fatally handicapped or

Tammany would not hesitate, as il
has not done in the past, to sell out
the national ticket If the local ticket
was in danger and could be saved by
a trade of that kind.
