it were possible to get it here, I'd like

good friends who were there to help.
l wished to be alone. to yield to the
sweet mood that the thought Of her
brought me. The doubt that crept
through my mind as to any possibility
of connivance between her and Picker
ing was as vague and fieeting as the
shadow of a swallows wing on
sunny meadow.
You don't intend fighting the fact
OF your absence. do you?" demanded
Larry. after a long silence.
OF course not" l replied fiercely.
Pickering was right on my heels, and
my absence was known to his men
here And it would not be square to
my grandfather,-who never harmed a
flea, may his blessed soul rest in
peace,-to lie about it. They might
nail me for perjury besides.
Then the quicker We get ready for
a siege the better. As l understand
your attitude. you don't intend to
move out until you've found where the
siller's hidden. Being a gallant gen
tleman and of forgiving nature. you
want to be sure that the lady who is
now entitled to it gets all there is
coming to her. and as you don't trust
the executor any further than a true
Irishman trusts a British prime minis
ter's promise. you're going to stand by
to watch the bullion counted. Is that

OVERLOOKED OPPORTUNITIES.
Chances in Average Small Town for
Profitably Engaging in Business.

According to the United States cen.
sus of 1900 there was produced in the
United States 1898 ,662, ,433 dozen eggs.
The same statistics give the annual
production OF poultry at 250.623. ia.
The butter made on farms each year
is in excess of 1,OOO.OOO,OOO pounds.
The cheese made on farms averages
about 20,000,000 pounds annually.
These statistics are interesting, and
with each farmer growing poultry and
eggs and making butter and cheese, II
hardly seems possible that such com.
binations as dairy trusts and egg and
poultry trusts could exist, but that
they do is nevertheless a fact.
Every small town in farming dis
trict can command sufficient butter.
egg and poultry trade to support a
prosperous exclusive produce estab.
lishment. The practice has generally
obtained in agricultural districts OF
storekeepers in various lines taking
farmers produce in exchange for
goods. The produce thus received by
merchants is forwarded to the com.
mission houses in the large city, and
these houses are factors that make II
possible to maintain trusts in the pro
duce business. 1t appears that il each
town had its exclusive produce estab
lishment to buy what the farmer has
to sell instead of the produce going
through the local stores, that better
prices could be paid the farmers and
the business made a most profitable
one if rightly conducted.
According to the natural laws OF
business industry succeeds best where
advantages are most abundant. Thus
1t seems that the produce offers a
most excellent field in the majority oi
agricultural towns.

property to young woman who has

Bah, these women! People don't
throw legacies to the birds these days.
OF course she'll take it," observed
Larry.
Then his eyes widened and met mine
in a gaze that reflected the mystifica-
ton and wonder that struck both OF
us. Stoddard turned suddenly from
the fire. into which he had been gaz-
ing, exclaiming:
What's that? There's some one up
stairs!"
Larry was already running toward
the hall, and l heard him sprlnging
up the steps like a cat, while Stoddard
and l followed.
where's Bates?" demanded the
chaplain.
"In thank you for the answer" l
replied.
Larry stood at the top OF the stair
case, holding a candle at arms length
in front of him, staring about.
We could hear quite distinctly some
one walking down a stairway; the
sounds were unmistakable, just as
had heard them on two previous occa-
sions, without ever being able to trace
their source.
The noise ceased suddenly. leaving
us with no hint Of its whereabouts.
I went directly to the rear OF the
house and found Bates putting the
dishes away in the pantry.

SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES.
Two Vital Things for the Welfare -
the Masses.

There b wisdom In the old slogan.
church in every valley" Citizens Of
the United States may well feel proud
OF the great educational system which
makes it possible for all classes to ac-
quire the proper mental cultivation.
They may also feel proud Of the re-
ligious liberty that each and every
citizen enjoys. There is no estab-
lished church to interfere with the
free exercise OF conscience, neither II
there any law that interferes with the
exercise Of religious belief.
The United States can be looked
upon as . nation where schools and
churches flourish to the fullest. The
public school system Is one OF the
most perfect that civilization has yet
evolved. OF course there are COM
munities where local conditions arc
not SO favorable for schools as other
places. 1t will be observed that the
more important is the city or the
town, the more advanced are the edu-
cational facilities offered the people.
The residents OF rural communities
have their state or district school. the
curricufums Of which are restricted.
1t Is to the nearby town that the chill.
dren who are residents OF the farm
districts must look for their higher
education. which Is a necessary prep
aration for entry into college. and for
business life. How important 1t is
then, to the resident Of the farm dis
trict that his home town be an active
place and Of sufiicient business i'm
portance to Justify the maintenance oi
a high class school! 1t can be seen
how each resident of a farming com
munity should be interested In the
home town and all that pertains to Its
upbuilding. II on no other account
purely on account OF the educational
facilities.
Running parallel in importance with
the schools are the churches. The
better the home town the better are
the church buildings, and the greater
is the talent that fills the pulpit. Botf
schools and churches have education
al qualities that should not be lightly
valued. They mean the highest men
tai and moral development, and upor
this development depends the goot
citizenship and the advancement ant
perpetuation of the nation.

GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.
Millions Of Dollars Annually Saved to
the Farmers Of the United States.

One OF the most important move
recent years, and which has resulted
in wonderful benefit to the people is
the good roads movement. Within the
United States there are approximately
about 100000 farmers. If during a
year each of those farmers can be
upon horses and wagons by means of
improved roads, it means saving of
sS0000,000 annually; but the truth is
that the improved roads that have
been built up the past half dozen years
through agitation OF the good roads
movement saves each farmer in the
land from $50 to 800. Thus it can be
seen that the savings brought about
through this movement aggregate hun.
dreds of millions of dollars each year.
Good roads are important to the
progressive town. This fact has be-
come so recognized that wherever
there exists a live agricultural town
it's citizens will be found to be staunch
advocates OF road improvement, and
there is civic pride and friendly com
petition in the matter of having good
roads leading to the towns. The work
of road improvement has only fairly
begun. A number of state legislatures
have taken up the work and during
the next dozen years great changes
will be wrought as to the building and
maintenance of public highways.

erty she was losing no time in return
ing. She and Pickering had discussed
together at the Armstrong; my flight
from Annandale, and her return could
have no other meaning than that there
was strong tie between them, and
that he was now to stay on the ground
until l should be dispossessed and her
rights established. She had dared me
to follow her, and my forfeiture had
been sealed by that stolen interview
at the Armstrong;. 1t was black rec

season. Bush did such sensational
work for his club during the past sea-

Hugh Jennings of the Detroit Ameri-

that position Jennings has decided to
send Ownie to Indianapolis for season
ing.
While Bush is considered good
enough for the American league pen
nant winners, Jennings thinks that a
year in the smaller league will do him
a world of good and he has chosen In
dianapolis as a school for him.
Bush is a fast fielder and a fairly
good hitter. He is small chap and
is an excellent waiter and usually
forces the opposing finger to put the

making good, Otto Williams will be

FOLDER ISSUED FOR
HIGH SCHOOL EVENTS
Two Members of the Football
Team Are Energetic.
ARE READY FOR RUSHVILLE.

A most unique scheme of advertis-
ing has been originated by Harry
Harms and Glenn Harsh. two emerge
tic members of the high school foot
ball team. A small folder has been
got out giving the schedules of the
football and basket ball teams for the
rest of this season, as we'll as the
names and members of both teams.
In addition to this they have secured
the ads of several prominent merch-
ants of the city fbr the folder, and will
distribute the folders at all the games
so that they can be used as reference
for the games that have been played.
The folder is very hastily prepared
and reflects credit on the Originators.
The team is in readiness for the game
Saturday with Rushville and expect
to clean up on the visitors in great
style The next game of tie basket

WABASH TO ST. LOUIS.
Season at That Institution Closes With
Saturdays Game.

Charlottesville, Ind. Nov S.-The
Wabash college football eleven went
through fierce Scrimmage practice on
ingalls, Field Thursday afternoon in
final preparation for the big game
scheduled with st. Louis university to
be played Saturday afternoon at St.
Louis.
The scarlet is determined to make
great finish of its brilliant record
for the season. as the football curtain
at the local institution falls after the
St. Louis game. No more games are
scheduled. and the team will disband
at the close Of this game Repeated
efforts were made to arrange a contest
with Notre Dame university, but the
Catholics sidestepped all advances.
The last time Wabash played Notre
Dame was in 1905, when it defeated
the South Bend men 5 to 0. Since
this date no football game could be ar
ranged with the Catholics, although
Wabash has triumphed on the cinder
track and field against them, and they
in turn have defeated the Little CT
ants in baseball.
