were really there, or my spirit had
come back to haunt the place.
presently the head jailer came to
me and told me that fire had taken
place in the neighborhood the night
before, in which two strange men were
so badly burned that death was but
matter of hours with them. One Of
the men, when he was told that he
could not live, sent for the minister
and confessed to having committed the
murder l had been convicted OF. His
story, which was subsequently confirm
ed by the other burglar, was, substan-
TALLY, that they had come to our
town in quest of proper prey. They
had learned that Miss G had many
well-to-do boarders in her house, some
of whom carried money with them in
large amounts, and they had determin.
ed to rob the house. The hour was
late, and the night very tempestuous
and black the very elements seeming
to favor the wicked purpose of those
men. Their plan was to go to Miss Cs
room and secure the keys Of the
house, after which they could loot at
leisure. Accidently, however, they
ately set up such an unearthly scream
ing that it was found necessary to
despatch her without more ado. One
shot was enough for the dastardly
purpose, and the poor old creature,
who had never done any other harm
than to ask for her just dues, went
quickly over the river The robbers
then paused for moment to ascertain
If anyone in the house had been arous-
ed by the shot. Concluding finally
that the storm had drowned the re-
port of the pistol, they determined to
leave at once, as the murder had so
unnerved them that they had no
thought Of theft, but cared only to
get away. AS they were going out,
however, they discovered a man lying
In the hall at the landing near Miss
C's door, in a drunken stupor. Then 1t
occurred to them to drag the man noise
lessly into her room, and leave him
there with a pistol on the floor near
his hand. Their motive in doing this
was to divert suspicion from them
selves, as they were strangers in the
place. When they discovered that |
had pistol in my pocket similar to
their own, they exchanged cartridges;
hence the empty shell in mine.
Gentlemen. that is my story"
Presently he said:
II know there's one question you
all want to ask. You want to know
what I've got in my hat that had such
startling effect upon me. | will

heart, but,"-and he held his hat with
the inside turned toward US.
There was a picture there. one that
caused us all to shudder. 1t was the
picture of a gallows.
Todd extended his hand.

TRIUMPH OF THE RURAL LIFE.
And the one thing which will make
it more easily possible, which will tend
the most to draw the city dweller to
the country and relieve the lonesome
ness and isolation Of the farm life, are
the good roads, for which great move
ment is now gathering force, and the
electric railway systems which are
threading the rural districts in every
thickly settled farming section of our
country.
All these are forerunners of the final
triumph of the rural life and Of a new
era i'm this country when "Men-mak-
ing" and not money making" will be
our national slogan.
"A time like this demands strong men.
Great hearts, true faith and ready hands;
Men whom the lust of Office does not kill,
Men whom the spells OF office cannot buy,
Men who possess opinion and will,
Men who have honor, men who will not
le
Men who can stand before n demagogue.
And damn his treacherous batteries with
out winking;
Tall men sun-crowned, who live above the
fog,

RED RUM.
A Temperance Lesson.


We were standing at the counter of
Il sumptuOus barroom in San Antonio
where Barclay and the two English.
men in the party had met by appoint
ment. Barclay had ranch TO sell
which the Englishmen, two heavy-set,
| redfaced. high booted fellows were
about to purchase. l had acted as
broker in the transaction and was
well pleased with the price settled up
on and anxious that no hitch" oc.

the bargain.
The bartender put out four glasses
and bottle of liquor in anticipation
of our order and the two Englishmen
and myself poured good three fling

tated moment and then said, 81
think III take sarsaparilla."
The Englishmen glanced at each
other significantly. Were not buying
soft drinks today, partner" said one.
Barclay hesitatingly poured out a
good sized drink and raised it to his
lips and turned toward the English
men who smiled their approval.
A strange thing then occurred. Bar.
clay took off his hat and looked into
the crown of it for a minute and then
set the untouched liquor on the bar
again. Gentlemen" he said, You'll
have to excuse me, but cannot drink
liquor" Todd, one Of the Englishmen,
banged his fist down on the bar and
exclaimed:-"I you can't drink with
us, you can't trade with us-that's
ALL"
Barclay turned to him, his face
very white, and said slowly:-'Then
the deal is off gentlemen"
Presently Barclay said, "I'll admit |
should like to trade with you, gentle
men, but the trade can go to the devil
if I have to drink whiskey in order to
make it. I will tell you why l can't
drink liquor if you will listen a nom.
ment. You may think it took courage
to refuse to drink, but l tell you it
would have taken more courage to
have accepted it." He drew a news
paper clipping from his pocket book
and laid it down where we could all
see it. That's exhibit No. l." he re-
marked.
For a moment we started in amaze
ment at the great black letters which
spelled the word GUILTY. The arti.
Gle following said that John Barclay
was convicted of murder in the first
degree, but that sentence was post
poned through respect to the prison
er's mother who dropped dead in the
courtroom upon hearing the verdict.
That's nice stuff for a man to read
about himself, eh?" said Barclay. with

he doubtless believes he is doing you a
favor, whereas he is really deriving
you of the most wholesome and deli
cious beverage that you can buy, some
thing better than anything else he can
sell you for the price. The sales of
Arbuckles' ARIOSA Coffee exceed the
sales of all other package coffees in the
United States combined, and the bust
ness of Arbuckle Bros. exceeds that of
the four next largest concerns in the

money in Arbuckles' ARIOSA than
they can buy in any other way.

Arbuckles' ARIOSA Coffee is good
to drink-it quenches the thirst and
tastes good. Most people need it. 1t
aids digestion, increases the power and
ambition to work and it makes one feel
