strutting along with bag in his hand. AS he

sound of desolate little sob at my elbow.

Rutherford paused, mopping his face with his
handkerchief in great agitation. Presently he
pulled leather case from his pocket, extracted a
photograph and passed it over to Hornirnan
That's her." he said
1t was the portrait of girl in age some seventeen
years. Large melancholy eyes looked out from
face of gentle beauty. She might have sat to
Velasquez, a worthy Madonna.
And when was this taken?" asked Horniman.
Eight months ago..
The stout waited; but as Hornnan was
plainly embarrassed he proceeded with his tale.
1.-The old landlady took charge of her that night
and next morning l woke with compassion for
the poor little kid all about my heart. Precious
fond of children l always was, and what with my
loneliness and what with the pretty ways she had,
she couldn't have seemed dearer if she'd been my
very own. As for the old Major, swore he wouldn't
take her, not if he came back with all the police
in the town behind him. But in that matter T. no
cause for trouble l set eyes on him again.

asked, fierce and sudden.
The little kid cried
out at his words and

catching her on the side

her over like a shot rab-

"Of that am the best judge" !"
The stranger got to his feet, and

his head from time to time. When the narrative

= the Spanish town which
lay huddled between the river
and the hill. Spire and pinnacle
shone white as alabaster in the
clear fierce air. Except for red
sailed barge creeping up against
the sluggish stream, there was
no sign of human action; the
distant tinkle of bell as one of
the herd moved uneasily on the
slopes alone awoke the midday
silence. And little James Hor-
niman, seated on a convenient
heap of stones near the crest OF
the ridge, stared SO flercely from
under his big hat at the ancient
roofs and lazy river, and away
to the northward where the
great hills rose in a band of
shimmering purple, that his eyes
might reasonably have been ex-
pected to make actuality of a
catchword and drop out of his
head.
From the artistic standpoint,
Horniman was essentially dis

lack of sympathy in the ro-
mantle.

The hearing in the order to show
cause in the alleged contempt of court
proceedings against Philip Liesch, editor
of The New Um Journal was had in
chambers before Judge Cray today. The
hearing began at 8 Il. m, and at that
hour the rather small room was filled
with parties interested in the proceed.
ing. Mr. Liesch was present with his
attorneys, Albert Pfaender of New Ulm
and S. B. Wilson of this city. Mayor
Charles Silverson of New Tim, a mem
Der of the citizens committee, was also
present. On the other side were W. ID.
Abbott of Winona, Pau & Pau and A.
+. Clark. Witnesses were also present
on both sides.
Mr.. Wilson stated that he appeared
specially, and moved that the order of
the court be vacated, the respondent dis
charged, and the proceedings dismissed
on the ground that this court does not
have jurisdiction. He presented an af-
fidavit from Mr. Pfaender to the effect
that Judge b. f. Weber resides at
New Ulm and is not disqualified from
acting in the case. He cited a decision
and took the ground that the offence,
if there was one, was against the
courts in general, and therefore Grim

own county in the ninth judicial dis
trict
The court denied the motion. Mr..
Wilson then objected to the jurisdiction
of the court for the reason that the
moving papers do not state facts suffi-
cient to constitute contempt of court
and to warrant the issuing of the order,
and moved to dismiss, etc. This was de
MED. Mr.. Wilson then made gem.
eral appearance and renewed the mo-
ton and it was denied
The court then adjourned to the
large court room, owing to the cham
bers being so crowded.
There was some discussion as to the
mode of proceeding, the controversy be-
ing as to which side should proceed
first. Mr. Wilson stated that some of
his witnesses would not arrive from
New Ulm until the :45 train, but he
thought that the other witnesses in the
case would consume the time until
then.
