IT WAS NOT AN EASY MATTER TO GET
MARION INTO THE CAR.
carry him out Of himself, but you win
go with me, little girl, If / can fix II
to evade those conditionsF"
"If only you could" she said wist-
fully, "but, Jim, l don't see how we
possibly can do anything. We must
travel either by land or water"
IL have an idea," he said mysterious
". II think that I can make that
promise hold good and yet take you
away"
She smiled family as she turned her
face up for 4 kiss. Three months be-
fore she and Jim had started to elope.
Years before there had been bitter feel
ing between their fathers over a village
election, and since then the elders had
kept up the feud.
Jim and Marion had fallen In love,
and they were halfway to C~arrsville
before they were overtaken by George
Halpin. He was white with anger,
and his finger twitched nervously on
the trigger of a revolver as he COM
handed Marion to descend from the
buggy and take her place in his own
wagon.
There had been a drive home in alb
solute silence which In the stiffness Of
the night had worked on the girls
feelings In strange fashion, and when
at last the home was reached he had
led her into the parlor, where the fam
lily Bible lay In state on the center
table.
Solemnly he had placed her hand
upon the sacred book and had made
her swear not to elope with Jim. Not
content with a general oath, he had
sought to make it more binding by
specifying every means Of transit he
could imagine, and when the girl had
at last staggered to her bedroom 1t
was with the feeling that Jim was lost
to her. Her promise was the price Of
his life, and the promise once made
could not be broken.
For a time Jim had seemed content,
but now he had suddenly changed his
mind, and somehow he had communi-
Gated some of his hope to her. She
was willing to go away with him and
get married IL only a means could be
found to escape the letter of her obli-
CATION, but her father had made 1t so
binding that she could not see how a
loophole could be found.
1t was not until a few weeks later
that 1 found the explanation. On her
way back from the store she encoun-
tered Jim on the road. He came to-
ward her smillngly.
i've got 1t all fixed" he declared
beamingfy. Your father made you
swear that you would not elope with
me on land or sea. He didn't say any
thing about going through the air, did
heY"
why should he?" she asked. "Until
we learn how to ny I don't see how
mat Is possible"
But we can fy." he insisted. aLook
here"
He drew from his pocket a copy Of a
paper black with heavy type and cuts.
There among the advertisements OF
can racks, powders for making orange
cider and Ice cream was the pic
ture of a man In an airship.
"You know" he explained, I'm the
chairman Of the entertainment com
unittee Of the County Fair association.
Well, l saw this advertisement, ana I

Beard. the San Andfreas cattleman. was here Tuesday and reported the finding of t1 300 silver which had been buried in the ground by the notorious Black Jack outlaws several years ago. MT. Beard states that some years ago the Black Jack gang camped near his ranch, which Is about 70 miles west of Aamogordo, at the foot of the San Andreas, and that officials made a charge on the gang. killing one. and that 1t was reported at that time that several thousands of dollars were left buried somewhere in that vicinity.
 T was in the vicinity where the robbers had camped and where. ac- cord to report. one of the gang was killed. And of course was thinking of the story of how the gang fled from the officers. leaving behind buried money. About one mile from where tho ground had been dug up by parties searching for the money. noticed two rocks out of the ground several inches, standing in & perpendicular DO sition. left 50 no doubt by floods from the mountain sides. Going up to the spot saw a piece of oid - :. and dig ging down 8 ways found three sacks of silver dollars. The sacks were rot ten and the money took out by the handfuls.

CHA BEND DEPUTY
 ROBBED OF SLIGO Money Was in a Satchel and Was Placed in a Room at
 the Court House,

PHOENIX, Nov. 2s.-The news has just leaked out that Deputy Sheriff Williams, of Gila Bend. was robbed of I$11o0 in this city fair week, the mon ey being being stolen from the office of Sheriff J. Elliott Walker, where 1t was under lock and key.
 The robbery Is great mystery. and has worried Sherif Walker not lit tie, owing to the circumstances under which 1t occurred. Williams left the money in a valise in the safe in the sherifrs office over night. but decided to carry it with him to. the fair grounds in the afternoon.
 However, at the last moment he eaId 1t would be best to leave 1t in 6
 safe place, and the satchel was placed lin the drawer of a desk in an office
 just south of the sheriff's office. The
 key was on Q ring of keys that always | lays la the sheriffs desk. During ths afternoon Sheriff Walker and Deputy Cunningham were there. Deputies King and Balsz were at the fair. and Deputy Slankard was in the country
 most of the afternoon.
 I Several parties were In and out oi
 the sheriffs office during the day. but
 none of them are suspected. In fact
 the sheriffs office is at a loss who to
 suspect of the daring theft.
 l Mc0srs. Walker and Cunningham
 left the office on occasions during
 the day. but neither was gone long
 at any time. and the person who com
 mitted the theft must have been te
 some extent familiar with tbe circum
 stances. The strongest effort is be ling made to locate the criminal. but
 so far not the slightest clue has beer lurea1hed.

 ACQUITTED
But Will Go Forth Armed, Fear Ing Violence at Hands of the Friends of the Man Whom He Killed,

E. F. Weller. the slayer of Charley Williams, will not lay aside his gun now that the man who threatened his life is in the grave. for he fears death now tust as much az he did when his sworn enemy was alive. For the same reason that Weller, well able to give bond and be released from jail until his trial. laid in jail all summer long. be Is today prepared for trouble, says the Enterprise.
 Weller fears that the friends Of Charley Williams will svense his death, and the hour of his acquittal Saturday made him look pale. Weller kept peering back into the dimly light ed court room among the few men who had assembled there as if he thought some one was preparing to avenge the death the law had not avenged, and after his discharge he returned to theN Jail, where he eX- pressed his fear of the averaging hand of Williams friends and requested the attendance of an officer until he could go to a place of lodgment for the night. He was accompanied by Con- stable Harry Troops and was not mo tested. Sunday morning he was on the streets again and that day re- turned to Meea-
