His ewes opened that instant and he
made a grab at Tom, who turned and
darted down the garden just as there
was a clatter of fresh feet upon the

The garden wall was mercifully low.

Tom tore up Ciaire's letter that he

that when he was taken no slur should
rest upon his beloved. and he distrib-

offer the watch in pledge. although he
had entered that shop for the purpose.
It licked so loud In the empty house

Before he could lie down again there
came a deafening double knock at the

then he heard a welcome crash at the

kural POliCc.

If crime and devilment continues to
increase in the rural districts of the
United States. as it appears to be do
ing at the present time. it may be nee
essary for the various states to organ
ize system of rural police, such as
exist in Cuba and Mexico and which
is in vogue in several other foreign
countries. II seems strange to real
what was published in the American
papers yesterday morning. that &
crowd of men had chained trees across
the tracks of the Erie railway in the
state of Ohio, for the purpose of
wrecking a passenger train. Such oc-
currences as this could not take place
in the republic of Mexico. The rural
police of that country, who are smart
and alert set of fellows, are supplied
with good horses and guns and there
is scarcely a quarter of a mile of any
highway that is not thoroughly patrol
led by one or more OF these vigorous
officials of the law. Another thing that
calls for the rural police is the recK-
lessness of the millionaire automobi!e
drivers of large cities that run through
the highways at a rapid rate carrying
death and terror III their line Thes2
tiends with their red devils" go owe"
the highways at a reckless rate Il
speed, soaring horses, running down
foot passengers and conducting them
selves in way that is making the AT
tOmobile quite unpopular in the rural
districts. These kind of people would
also be brought to a halt in the less
progressive country of Mexico. OF
course it is a tremendous expense II
| saddle upon the state.
For enough men to police the high
ways of Illinois would require con
siderable army. But if train robbers
and train wreckerS and automobile
| fiends are going to make the highways
of this state and other states unsafe
| for peaceful individuals, such a cOndi-
ton of affairs will make necessary Il
| system that has been advantageous"
