BANKER W. E. BROWN
IS FOUND GUILTY
Jury in the Federal Court Says
He Falsifled His
Books.
HE MAY APPEAL THE CASE
Case Has Attracted Much Interest il,
Northwest Iowa. Where the De-
PENDANT Is Well known
Among Business Men.

Sioux city, Ia. Oct. L. AFTER a
weeks trial i'm the federal court on
charges OF irregular banking brought
against him by the United States gov
iernmcnt w. Il. Brown. formerly proSi-
dent OF the First National bank at
Storm Lake. WAS adjudged guilty last
Tuesday. The jury reported ut 5:2a
O'Clock
pom tho reading of the verdict
Judge Henry T. Reed announced that
Judgment OF the court would be sus-
pended until Friday morning The bond
OF $4,000 upon which Mr.. Brown is
NOW at liberty will continue until that
ltine. The limits OF punishment are
five and ten years on each count. Ii
is the impression among the attorneys
that the sentence will be ion between
five and ten years.
May Appeal the Case.
Tho attorneys for the defense say
that In all probability the case Will be
/ appealed either to the United States
court of appeals or the Emitted States
supreme court. The agency by which
such recourse Will be made will be
mainly a writ of error based upon the
last section OF the instructions of Judge
Reed to the jury in which the court
ruled that Mr. Brown could not shift
the responsibility of the contents OF
hia report upon an emploNe IN the
bank. 1t is claimed by the attorneys
for the defense that the opinion given
by Judge Reed in this instance Was
similar to one given by the United
States supreme court in a famous Allen
banking cas-" which opinion Mas re-
verssd by the same court sonc -four

flee on time.
He has his tickets purchased. and
enters n carriage with All SIN and the
luggage Just as the prompt signal Is
given and the train moves.
The ride Is unovcntful.
Reaching Glasgow. cab is taken
to the hotel. and Jack seeks rest. hav.
ing left word In the Office that any
message arriving is to be brought TO
him Mt once. for he believes the mis-.
sion of the artist to this city on the
Clyde is to sail on an Anchor Line
steamer for New York, whence Cuba
may be reached.
Another day and no word.
How heavily time drags!
He lounges about the hotel. making
short pilgrimages abroad. for II is pos
sible that those he seeks escape him.
In Jamaica street he surveys the
crowd and wanders into Argyle street,
his eyes ever on the watch for the
face that is always in his mind.
Among such crowds the chances OF
seeing a particular person are slender
indeed.
Ah Sin says nothing; but he. too.
keeps bright lookout.
And at noon no word.
Jack grows restless. Can 1t be pos
sible his shrewd agent has lost track
of the game, outwitted by Spanish
cunning?
He arouses to the occasion and
makes inquiries himself.
There is party, consisting of two
gentlemen and the same number Of
ladies, who have secured staterooms
under the name of Hamilton: but he
can find out nothing about them, or
when they expect to come aboard.
It looks. then. as though he will
have to come prepared to watch the
gang plank. and, II he discovers those
he seeks, go aboard himself.
At the hotel a note awaits him.
Smithers is awake and on the track.
He bids Jack be ready for action in
case a voyage is the next thing on the
program.
This seems significant of action.
That evening. as Jack enters the
diuing-room, gentleman hastily
leaves whom he has not noticed, and
who seems rather anxious to avoid
recognition, which is not at all
strange seeing that it is Howard Spen-
Ger.
Jack has actually been under the
same roof as those he seeks for almost
twenty hours, and yet never once
dreamed of the fact.
It draws near ten o'clock
Shadows have fallen. Clouds OBJ
scure the sky and the night promises
to be dark one.
Jack has decided to drive to the
dock of the steamer and carry out his
plan. All Sin has charge of the lug

Humors of "First Aid"

A capital story is told of the cadets,
of the naval training ship Britannia
while at Dartmouth.
Some of them had taken a course
of first aid instruction under the st.
John Ambulance Association. A ca
det broke his arm in the cricket field
one day. and the medical staff turned
1t to splendid account, and lectured to
a crowded audience over the PROSTATE
body of the wounded youngster. Now
what do you call this?" Broken arm,
SIR" How do you know it Is bro
ken?" Because we waggled 1t about.
sir" Simple or compound fracture?"
simple, sir" "why?" Because he
did it so easily. sir" What ought l
to do?" Then came a volley Of all the
stored.up information, acquired at the
late classes: "Stick mustard plas.
ter on the back of his neck, SIR"
Put him in hot bath, SIR" WALK
him up and down as fast as you can.
SIR" Hold him up by the heels, SIR"
"Tie him to broom-handle. two bill
lard cues, and rifle, sir" Tickle
his nose with feather, SIR" What
the wounded cadet thought of this
medical consultation is not recorded.

the hotel. and. accompanied by the
ever.faithfui Celestial. walks along
Princes street.
An interview with the head OF the
police force Is what Jack seeks, He
desires to have the elements OF law
and order ON his side in this struggle
against the schemer.
When he has acquainted this shrewd
gentleman with the facts. and explain
ed what he desires. he soon secures
the services of u private detective Of
great repute.
The orders given are to keep posted
on all Senior Roblado does. and report
often to Jack.
The night comes on slowly.
Jack has dIncd and feels that. like
the famous philosopher OF old. no fate
can harm him.
News from his agent Is what he
awaits. and meanwhile rides round the
city on the top of tram cars. About

Left in the Lurch at Glasgow.
The Snaninrd has had his rpypp,

Icrt IN the lurCn al SlaSgow.
The Spaniard has had his revenge.
Jack never moves for some minutes
after being left alone in his room. His
gaze is still fixed at the bold picture
of Edinburgh Castle as outlined
against the soft southern sky; but his
thoughts are hardly connected with
that glorious masterpiece.
To Cuba!
This fair Scotch lassie whom a
strange freak of Fate has thrown in
his way in such manner that their
life-lnes have crossed will soon have
gone over the broad Atlantic to the
Gem of the Antilles, where the ter
rible Yellow Jack turks and revolution
is in the air.
His cigar, which he has smoked me-
chanically, though vigorously. at
times. becomes exhausted, and as he
tosses the stump out of the window,
Jack springs to his feet.
To Cuba!
Yes, around the world, IL necessary
will he follow. The greater the diff
ficulties that arise in his path the
more resolved he becomes to accom-
plish his honorable purpose.
If 1t lies in the power of mortal
man, Jessie Cameron must be his. The
law has given her to him already, but
that counts for nothing without her

moment. have been kept in wonder

by that fierce rush OF the tide. and as

The crisis Is nj hand.

With these words tho fiery Castii-

presents II Mt the head Of his COM

look into the chambers and see the
icaden messengers snugly cnsconced.
and awaiting the signal to 30 toFth.
He secs something more.

en-, In Cuba, and learned OF their
ways; but there Is one thing you seem
to have forgotten which no cowboy In
Texas ever omits-that Is. TO pull
back the hammer OF your gun before
you shoot"
The Spaniard gives cry OF bitter
chagrin. and draws back his arm TO
romedy the fault. when Jacks foot
flies up from the side OF the table. and
tho pointed toe of his boot coming In
contact with Roblado'r wrist. the In
Simultaneous result is revolver whirl'
ing across the apartment.
a snarl OF rage from the senor.
"Sit you down. SIR" says Jack. calm
ly. md there is n terrible emphasis In
his voice that has an effect on Rob
lado, though In all probability he Is
influenced more by the sight OF little
shining weapon which Jack has taken
from the drawer OF the table. and the
hammer OF which is drawn back.
Roblado is not n madman. therefore
he refrains from rushing on certain
death.
Fuming with rage. he drops back
into his chair. n picture of unutterable
fury.
Now. sir. let us have an under
standing. shall put my weapon
away again. since l believe you Will
come to your senses and realize there
are better ways of getting even than

A sparkle of cunning flashes into the
eyes of the don: he has suddeny re-
membered that. after all. when the
game appears lost. he has winning
card up his sleeve.
The girl!
She is in his powcr-she believes
in his affection for her. anC Will do
