Great Revival Ends.

Sterling, H.. March 21.-As a re-
suit of a great religious revival which
has just closed in Dixon, five dancing
clubs have dlsbanded and several
thousand people have taken an oath
not to frequent barrooms and not to
have anything TO do with dancing
parties or card tables. The famous
Kendall club, a charitable organiza-
tion, which raised several thousand
dollars year for charity, voted not
to hold any more dances and gave to
VIM. a. Sunday, "the base ball evan
gelist," $500. During the revival three
bartenders were converted, a number
of gambling dens were closed and
gambling outfits were demolished.

CHAPTER XVII.

@1HE rear had been tenting at the
dam for two days and was
about ready TO break camp
when Jimmy Powers swung
across the trail to tell them Of the big
jam.
Ten miles along the river bed the
stream dropped over little half falls
into n narrow. rocky gorge. 1t was al
ways an anxious spot for river drivers.
The plunging Of the logs head-on over
Pie fall had so gouged out the soft rock
below that an eddy Of great power had
formed in the basin. Here, in spite of
all efforts. the jam had formed. The
bed was completely filed, far above
the level of the falls, by n tangle that
defied the jam crews best efforts.
The rear at once took the trail down
the river. Thorpe and Shearer and
Scotty Parsons looked over the ground.
Without delay the entire crew was
set to work. Nearly n hundred men
can pick great many logs in the
course of n day. Several times the jam
started, but always plugged before
the motion had become irresistible.
"We'll have TO shoot" Shearer re-
luctantly decided.
The men were withdrawn. Scotty
Parsons cut n sapling twelve feet long
and trimmed it, Big Junko thawed his
dynamite at little fire, opening the
ends of the packages in order that the
steam generated might escape. When
the powder was warm, Scotty bound
twenty of the cartridges around the
end of the sapling, adjusted fuse in
one Of them and soaped the opening to
exclude water Then Big Junko thrust
the long javelin down into the depths
of the jam, leaving a thin stream of
smoke behind him as he turned away,
zigzagging awkwardly over the jam,
the long, ridiculous tails of his brown
cutaway coat Topping behind him as
he leaped. \ scant moment later the
hoarse dynamite shouted.
Great chunks Of timber shot to an in
conceivable height. Entire logs lifted
bodily into the air with the motion of
a fish jumping \ fountain of water
cleaned against the sun and showered
down in fine rain. The jam shrugged
and settled. That was all. The "shot"
had failed.

SO all the gates of the dam were
raised. and the torrent tried its hand.
1t had no effect, Evidently the affair
was not one of violence, but Of pa
thence. The crew went doggedly to
work.
Day after day the clank, clank, clink
Of the peaveys sounded with the regu-
larity of machinery. 1t was cruel,
hard work. A man who has lifted his
utmost strength into a peavey knows
that. Any but the Fighting Forty
would have grumbled.
Collins, the bookkeeper, came up to
view the tangle. Later a photographer
from Marquette took some views, and

curiosity seekers were driving over ev-

Mrs. Catherine MacCready. wealthy
American woman, who formerly lived in

morning. She had been dead four days
according to the testimony of physicians,
at the coroner's inquest later In the day.
That robbery was the motive Of the crime

her bedroom, in which it was supposed
she kept jewels and money. had been
opened and the contents scattered about
the floor of the apartment Whether any,
thing of value was taken is not definitely
known.
Mrs. MacCready. though wealthy, was &C.
centric. Although she occupied COM
modious house, she had no household SER
wants. She had no friends and few ac-
quaintances. She was accustomed to come
to Naples at times and little notice was
taken of her absence until today, when the
fears of an aged man employed by her
that she might be Ill in the house induced
the authorities to enter.
The body was found on the floor Of the
bedroom. The woman had been strangled
by powerful man, and even after the
lapse Of time finger marks were family dis
cernable on her throat.
