CHAPTER xxIx-continued.

Bill Hawks appeared to notice Lang
at about the same instant.
Go and tell my wife" said Lang
to the farmer, "that Bill Hawks and
his gang are in the fair grounds. Tell
her to drive due north along the side
of the wall and drive as fast as she
can"
The farmer seemed to understand
perfectly and communicated Louis
words to Pearl.
While Louis was talking to the
farmer Lang saw Hawks calling his
gang together Lang did not attempt
to escape rashly and thus call down
the gang upon his wagon, but so much
confidence did he have in Pearl that
he calmly waited for Hawks to show
his hand, trusting that in the mean
time Pearl would be enabled to carry
out his instructions.
From his position on horseback
Lang very plainly saw his brave wife
mount the seat of the Judy wagon and
drive through the gate. turning the
team in the direction she was told to
his treasure or his own life now as
he did of the brave little woman he
called wife, whom he had learned to
love with all the ardor of his impul-
sive nature. Lang in giving his or
der to Pearl. had plan in view of
escape. He saw way down in the
north corner of the ground an open
hole in the fence. 1t was his idea
when Pearl got safely started to at
tempt to make his escape through
this opening. In the meantime Hawks
drew nearer to Lang and his gang
was seen to partly surround our hero.
The detective was now almost in
front of the low railing which formed
the circle creating the race track
proper. Lang turned his horse round
very calmly as if to go toward the
gate. A race was about to begin, and
the country people We're on the qui
viye to see the start. Just as the
gong sounded to start the races, Lang
like a flash almost turned his horse

When a man has lived to be 70 years
old with a 40-year-old habit grown to
him like knot on a tree, chances are
he'll stick to the habit till he dies.
But occasionally the spirit of youth
and determination remains in some
men to the last day of their lives.
When such men do find any habit of
life has been doing them harm, they
surprise the Oslerites by a degree of
will power that is supposed to belong
to men under 40 only.

with fresh stock. Down the road
could be seen a band of mounted men
appearing.
"Farmer!" shouted Louis, as he
mounted his seat, and throwing him
a handful of coin, Scut across into
yonder field and hide your money!
Good-bye'
Louis, having obtained fresh stock,
again distanced his pursuers, but it
could not last long, No houses APP
peared in sight, and as evening drew
near, our hero came to the conclu-
sion that something would have to
be done to stop the chase. In the dis
lance the sounds of pattering feet
could be heard, though nothing could
be seen, and Louis managed to keep
out of sight until evening dropped her
mantle over earth.

Kept Tax Receipts Lona.

Charles King, of East Liberty,
suburb of Pittsburg, is what might be
termed careful man. He has been a
voter in the East Liberty district since
1857 and when asked on the last reg
istration day If he had tax receipt
he pulled from pocket tax receipts
for the last Al years When asked by
the registrar If he had any more he
replied that If he went down deep in
to his strong box at home he might
possibly find a few dating long back
before the oldest member of the board
was born. Mr. King is now rs years
old, having been born in Baltimore in
1928, removing to East Liberty in
1857. His first presidential vote was
cast for John c.. Fremont and his last
for Theodore Roosevelt, He is a
stanch Republican and as contractor
and brick manufacturer for half cen
tury has contributed much to the up
building and growth of East Liberty.

lois Of QUEER TALES

MY, but we do hear some queer tales
i'm police court" sighed Judge Whitney
this morning.
The remark was inspired by the
fact that one Ario, a Porto Rican,
charged the boatswain Of the S. S.
Kirklee with assault and battery. The
bos'ns name is Charlie Blom and he
addressed Prosecuting Attorney Frank
Andrade as my lord"
According to the story of Ario, Blom
lifted him by the eyebrows, threw him
on the deck and kicked him at the base
of the spine, tanning him Ario was
told to slide down a rope to a scaffold
over the ships side and refused to go
"unless he had a ladder" Blom said
all he did was to put out his hand in
tender suggestion and poor Ario fell
over a pile of matches and bruised his
face, injured his back and tore his
coat, Ario did not limp when he walk

PEACOCK AGAIN
IN POLICE COURT
APPEARS THAT SECOND FAULTY
SUMMONS HAS BEEN ISSUED IN
LIQUOR CASE.

w. c. Peacock was up in police court
again this morning, having been arrest
ed as President of the corporation of
w. c. Peacock & Co, Limited, which
corporation is sought to be charged
with violation of Act 67 and is sought
to be charged with selling adulterated
liquor r. w. Breckons represented Mr..
Peacock and pointed out to the court
that the service was faulty, as it was
held once before to be, and the defen-
dant should be discharged Breckons
was obliging, however and he was will
ing to waive a penal summons if Pro-
scouting Frank Andrade would make
the correct charge there and then.
1t seems taht the corporation as such
should be charged with the alleged Of
fence and then one or some of the
members or officers of the corporation
arrested to answer, whereas the sum-
mons calls for w. c. Peacock, "as pre-
sident" Of the corporation.
Judge Whitney put the matter over
until Monday next.

FOOTBALL GOSSIP

Last Saturday the 1906 season Of
Football in these islands virtually
came to an end unless certain en-
thusiasts get up game on Christmas
day which is looking doubtful at pre-
sent. This week the hair has been
rushed to the mattress factory and
most of the players have returned to
their books Gf they have been taking
studies) and the undertakers have re-
tired into channels of ordinary trade.
The girls will now have to seek heroes
in other walks of life, for with locks
shOrn the football hero ceases to stand
on a PEDESTAL and assumes a position
of ordinary interest from which he can
hardly hope to compete with the pros
porous plumber.
The season has been short and sweet
and without a single killing While
this has been a matter of regret with
a few Of the younger sports still it is
a matter of great consolation with
the Ministerial Association. The taste
for blood seems to be gradually dissi-
pating. The crowds were as large and
happy and foolish as ever.
Now the faculty again assumes an
Importance greater than that of the
player. The mental acuteness which
enabled the player to master the 4-11-44
signals will now tackle the problems
Of the college curriculum.
There is a growing sentiment that
colleges in these days devote too much
time to mere studies. Football is
limited to two months while it takes
a fellow nine months to crawl over the
academic features. A close investiga-
ton by psychologists would no doubt
show that this proportion is not COM
mensurate with the energy, interest
and enthusiasm shown the respective
subjects. We opine that football
would be found to arouse the average
student from lethorgy in a somewhat
greater degree than a night session
with Greek Grammar. A more just
appOrtionment of time between study
ing and playing football should be
made. This seems to be one of the
crying needs of the times.

Bishop Fallows, of Chicago, thinks
that estates Of $1,000, 900 should pay
an inheritance tax of SO per cent, to
go to the school fund. The Chicago
journal thinks that it is virtually
confiscation and never would win con-
sent, but that proper tax must come.
lit says: The time is approaching
when law will be passed providing
for such cases. Wealth is accumulat-
ing so fast in this country that means
must be had to distribute it for the
benefit Of the people. We have
neglected that feature hitherto in
the United States because it is only
in the last twenty or thirty years that
At has become pressing. But in the
next twenty years something must
and will be done to meet it. The
Presidents plan has not yet been an
nounced, but it may be depended up
on to be a rational and sensible solu-
tion of the problem. If men are to
be allowed to pile up great fortunes
without interference they must con-
tribute OF them literally when they
die. The inheritance tax, an estab-
lished institution in Great Britain,
win become one Of our own laws be-
fore many years have passed.

It would appear that they do not
approve of domestic science in the
State educational institutions of
Iowa. The young woman from Bos-
ton who was engaged to teach the
branch of higher education, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer, was some
what rudely informed by member
of the State Board of Control that
her lectures were nonsense and her
science a fad. Get your fingers in
the dough-" shouted the extremely
practical person. Then he added:
i'You have to get into the kitchen to
know how to cook. . All of this was
extremely distasteful to the teacher,
and while she had contract that
empowered her to lecture in the Iowa
schools for a year, she preferred to
resign rather than be under the SUI
pervision of board that could not
discriminate between a scientist and
a cook.

The Boston Transcript observes
that: The destiny Of Fort McHenry
does not appear to have been settled,
further than that it will be aban-
doned as military post at the end
of March. It has been proposed to
turn it over to the Agricultural De-
partment to be used as a cattle quar-
antine, and the mere suggestion has
stirred all Baltimore with indigna-
tion. The Sun likens the proposed
dissertation to building a hospital for
diseased poultry on Plymouth Rock.
Altogether, Baltimore knows how
Boston felt last year when a distin-
guished Baltimorean recommended
that Old Ironsides be employed as a
floating target
