Walter Fitzgerald was jailer Of
Boyle county, and he and Tom Helm,
then chief of police, went after
Rousey. Months passed and the peo-
Pile had forgotten that such man as
Rousey existed. More than a year
after Rousey's escape he was arrested
in small town in southern California.
He was brought back and when the
court Of appeals affirmed his case he
was brought to the penitentiary here.
During the year that passed after
his escape, Helm was on the trail Of
Rousey and twice was within two
hours OF him, reaching a town only
that length of time after Rousey had
gone. The chase was from Illinois to
southern Arkansas and back four
times and then across Texas and New
Mexico into California
During this time Rousey never had
positive information that anybody was
after him. He received warnings In
some mysterious way. He says some
thing told him Tom Helm was after
him and would come to the town In
which he happened to be at that time.
As soon as this feeling came upon
him, without questioning it, Rousey
would leave. On the day before he
was arrested, Rousey said, he was sit
ting by the railroad track in the yards
where he was employed. He said the
old feeling which said to him plainly:
TON Helm is coming here after YOU"
came over him. He said he went at
once to the foreman of the yard and
asked for his pay and also for pass
to Canada. This was on Thursday.
The foreman persuaded ROusey to
wait until Saturday and work the
week out The failure TO obey the
warning caused Rousey to be caught
just at the edge of what would have
been safety, and he went TO the peni-
tentiary. where he has made = good

in the mother of parliaments, the Brit

condemned the inaccuracy of the par

make allowance for acoustic difficulties
and the buzz of intervening converse

the malicious suppression of his speech

1871 fell foul of the press in the same
way, and the late Lord Monteagle had
his name omitted from London news
paper reports for two years because he
said something the reporters did not
like.

The Kings Cock Grower.

In the good old time there was an
English court official known as the
kings cock Grower. It seems a strange
Office Why did the king require cock
Grower. and why could not the common
barn door variety serve his majesty's
purpose? The reason, as you shall see,
was that the barn door variety cannot
be depended upon for times and hours,
and he has never been persuaded to OBJ
serve Lent. Now, this was pious GUS
tom and religious duty. All through
Lent the kings cock Grower crowed
instead of calling the hours Of the night
in the palace. He began on Ash
Wednesday, when he entered the hall
in which the kings supper was served,
and then crowed the hour in the pres
ence of the royal party. The meaning
of the custom is obvious. 1t was only
one of the many ways in which the
history of the Christian religion was
brought home to the minds Of people
before the reading Of the gospel in the
vernacular The Office was continued
down to the year 1S22.-London Queen.

reached the stand he had to wait for
several minutes before he could make
himself heard as he delivered the "key-

undoubtedly to the liking of his audi
