more toward the bed. ''How many ?'
he said laconically.
Chilcote lifted his head. His face was
pitiably drawn, but the feverish bright
ness in his eyes had increased. Five"
he said sharply. Five. Do you hear,
Loder?"
"Five?'' Involuntarily Loder lowered
the hand that held the tube. From pre-
v1ous condolences Of Chilcote's he knew
the amount Of morphia contained in
each tabloid and realized that five tab

moment his resolution failed. Then the
dominant note Of his nature-the un-
conscious, fundamental egotism on
which his character was based-assert-
ed itself beyond denial. It might be
reprehensible, it might even be crimi-
nal to accede to such a request made
by man in such a condition Of bodv
and mind; yet the laws of the universe
demanded self prompted ev
cry human mind to desire, to grasp and
to hold. With perception swifter than
any he had experienced he realized the
certain respite to be gained by yielding
to his impulse. He looked at Chilcote
with his haggard, anxious expression,
his eager, restless eyes, and vision of
himself followed sharp upon his glance.

With an excitement that lent him
strength, Chilcote pushed aside his
hands. "God," he said suddenly, "sup-
pose twas lost-suppose twas gone!'
The imaginary possibility gripped him.
He sat up, his face livid, drops of
perspiration showing on his forehead,
his whole shattered system trembling
before his thought.
At the sight Loder set his lips. '"The
tube is on the mantelshelf," he said
IN cold, abrupt voice.
A groan Of relief fell from Chilcote,
and the muscles Of his face relaxed.
For moment he lay back with closed
eyes, then the desire that tortured him
stirred afresh. He lifted his eyelids
and looked at his companion. Gland

me. Give it to me, Loder, quick as
you can! There's glass on the table
and some whisky and water. The

new excitement he held out his hand.
But Loder stayed motionless He
had come to fight, to demand, to plead,
if need be, for the one hour for which
he had lived-the hour that was to
satisfy all labor, all endeavor, all am
bition. With logged persistence he
made one more essay.
"Chilcote, you wrote last night to re-
call me- Once again he paused,
checked by a new interruption. Sit
ting up again, Chilcote struck out sud-
denly with his left hand In a rush of
his old irritability.
Oh your he cried suddenly.
"What are you talking about? Look
at me! Get me the stuff. I tell you
it's imperative" In his excitement his
breath failed, and he coughed. At the
effort his whole frame was shaken
Loder walked to the dressing table,
then back to the bed. A deep agita-
ton was at work in his mind.
Again Chilcote's lips parted. "Lo-

I must have it. It's imperative" Once
more he attempted to lift himself, but
the effort was futile.
Again Loder turned away.
"Loder'-
With fierce gesture the other turn

began. Then unaccountably his voice
changed. The suggestion that had
been lowering in his mind took sud-

said in a lower voice. GALL right!

He crossed to where the empty tum-
bier stood and hastily mixed the whis-
key and water, then crossing to the

An wn" and "Out" Problem.

The Association of Collegiate Alum nae at recent meeting listened to addresses from six women who had held fellowships from the association. says the Youths Companion. Four of the six may write Ph. D. or Lit. D. after their names. Their researches have been in diverse fields-Roman archaeology, old English, comparative psychology, aesthetics. Their stories Of their work show their vigor and in genuity in the pursuit of knowledge. and humor in facing the difficulties of their tasks.
 For example, one of them wished to study manuscript in the monastery or Monte Casino. She found the rules of the order forbade any woman to work in the library or any manu- script to be taken out But a gentle appeal to the abbot resulted in his sending the desired treasure to the porters room at the gate. By a free construction of the regulations the book was there said to be in" and the maiden was said to be out" and all requirements were met

LOOKING BACK TO THE PAST.
Pioneer Saw Indian Hunting Ground
 Where Stands Busy City.

Stranger, 33 years ago I marked the site for this town" said o. J. Burwell, while in Lenora the other day, and l have seen herds of buffalo go galloping through here and hun dreds of Indians camping on this very spot. Lenora was built on my home stead because 1 had faith in this coun- try. l have seen some hard times. but I refused $100 an acre for my farm last week. l landed here 34 years old, without cent. and now l am, of course. no wealthy man.
 There was a ring of pride in the voice of the old pioneer as he spoke of Lenora and its beginning. As he spoke, the street was lined with farm CTS teams, rural carriers went driv- ing by; the whistle of the incoming train was heard. and the high school bell was ringing.
 A glance down Main street revealed the long line of large stores that be- spoke wealthy and populous commu. nity. The old pioner could still see the Indian encampment, and the wild buffalo, and he was envied the pano- rama of the years that he gazed upon, in which was developed the busy little ity.-Topeka CapitA.

LlttIe Rock 3, Atlanta l.

Atlanta, Ga, June 3.-Finn'S Colts showed a marked reversal of form and romped all around the aStoniShed Crackers, and much to the dismay of the local enthusiasts, took d fall out of the Atlantas by the score of 3 to 1. The score hardly indicates the ease with which the visitors copped the contest, as the locals never appeared dangerous after the Colts had once tied up the score in the fourth inning.
 Pop" Eyler, the scintillating star of the Little Rock twirling staff, occupied the center of the stage, and to him is due the large share in the defeat of the home crowd. The terrific hitting Crackers found his delivery for a puny total of six singles, but no two of them in the same inning and had it not been for an error by Eyler himself-the only sem olance charged to Little Rock for the game-in the third inning, the result would have been a scoreless game from the Atlanta standpoint.

Something for You
 to Think About

In 1897 the Southwest Arkansas Tele- phone Co. started business in Prescott. At that time copper wire cost II 3-4 cents per pound. Now it is 25 cents. In spite of the increased cost of mater ials and operations the rates are no higher now than then.
 The local toll and farmer line ser vices reaches nearly every part of the county. The long distance service is splendid.
 If you do not now have a telephone in your home or place of business you should have one installed at once.

w. c. Slater. of Hope. N. D., Is
Selected for Schools.
At a meeting Of the school board
last week, Prof. w. G. Slater, Of
Hope, North Dakota, was chosen
to fill the position Of superintend-
ent Of the city schools the coming
year. Miss Alice Stephens, now
teaching a school north of town,
was also engaged by the board as
one of the teachers for next years $
work. This leaves but four teach
ers to be chosen to complete the
corps of instructors for the coming
year. A meeting of the board is
to be held next Tuesday night
when the other instructors will
probably be elected.
Prof. Slater, the new superin-
tendent, is highly recommended as
an instructor of ability and his
work will no doubt prove satisfac-
tory to the patrons and students of
the city schools. The past year
has been one of much good in the
way of bringing improvements fol-
the school and i5 is safe to say that
the institution has prospered more
in the term just being finished than
during any year in it's history.

To the chairman and members
of water and light committee, l
wish to say, your work is of great
Importance for the fact that the
work undertaken by the last board
is still incomplete. The bonding
of our city for the purchase of the
water system being in court but it
is to be hoped that your honorable
body will be able to roll the clouds
away and can finally establish
the water system for the city on a
business and profitable basis. There
should also be few more arc lights
placed in the outskirts of our city.
We have fellow townsmen who are
heavy tax payers who are in total
darkness, endangering their lives
in going and returning from their
place of business by not having the
use of lights on dark nights. 1t is
to be hoped that this matter be
taken under consideration and
give our fellow townsmen fair
return of our city rights for the
taxes paid in by them.
To the chairman and members
of the sewerage committees:
Nothing of greater importance
to the material welfare of the city
will arise during your term of
Office than the construction of a
sewer system.
l am advised that plans, esti-
mates and specifications for a septic
tank system are already prepared
by the most experienced expert in
the northwest.
His estimate for the construction
of the proposed system is 100000
As we may reasonably expect the
railroad to be operating into our
city by the close of the year 1907,
1 respectfully request that your
honorable body take steps to pre-.
pare and circulate the necessary
petitions to secure the public
sanction to this enterprise, and
there upon proceed to allot the
city into sewer districts for the
apportionment of taxation and
otherwise preparing the details in
order that work may commence
not later than spring 1908, thai
same can be completed during thu
summer of 1908.
/ / lay particular stress upon thu
sewer matter because Grangevill,
has reached a growth where !;
sewer system is indispensable tt
the maintenance of sanitary con
ditions. Already septic tanks arr
being installed by private individ
uals for personal use and with th'
completion of the railroad to hau
the necessary materials for it's con
struction there will be no excus
for the postponement of this vita
element in the growth and healtl
, of our city.

INDIscRiMINATE GUN CARRYING.

There is not one man in ten thous-
and who can be trusted to carry a six
shooter, with safety to himself and
his fellows, yet 1t is common knowl-
edge that at least ten per cent of that
number do carry them and the use
they make Of them Is expressed in the
records Of crime and accident through
out the country, There is scarcely a
city on the continent that does not
pretend to prohibit their common use,
and there is no class of laws so large
ly iefied and ignored. .
The worst of 1t all is, that the per-
nicious habit Is adopted by the young
sters of the nation, with frequent and
wretched results. They take to the
notion Of six-shooter with avidlty,
mainly upon the principle that it con-
tributes to their manly status and Gre
ates place for them among their fell
lows that is to be envied and feared.
1t certainly does make them feared
since there is no knowing when nor
under what circumstances they will
