He motioned toward the vociferous

the roadside.
With Roberts riding stifly behind,
talking at intervals to the passenger,
they made their way slowly across
the long bridge and over the broad
valley toward the wide-porched bunga-

colonel. You know we may have

The lieutenant was embarrassed.
The leave was granted and the
colonel was secretly glad to do it. The
field would be clear for awhile. at
least. He ordered his car for the
early evening.

The CoLonel's Campaign
BY CHARLES MoREAU HARcIs

(Copyright.)

Col. Leith was proud Of his posses
sion. The big, red, vociferous car ex.
actly suited his mood-for he liked to
DO things hurriedly; he worshiped
swlftness. Even now he had left the
fort by the valley road and was
dustily tearing toward Rockwell City,
four miles away.
SO Col. Leith went unconsciously on
his way, driving his motor car faster
and faster-until something happened.
Something usually does happen with
motor cars. Several things hap
pened first and last with this one and
the colonel.
This was comparatively harmless
happening. He cavorted around the
bluffs by the city's edge, careened
through the deep cut by the river
and came plump on Grace Dewey,
daughter of the best known ranchman
in the valley.
Her mount reared, but trained
horsewoman that she was, she kept
her seat in the saddle. The car
wheezed and the horse reared again.
This time she did not keep her seat,
but went down in a limp bundle to
the hard road, while the horse raced
up the ravine, as if it, too, were
working for speed record.
To make the incident the more strik-
ing, Lieut.. Roberts just then came
cantering down the highway, his &C.
coutrements jangling and his cavalry
charger doing it's prettiest gait.
Roberts and the colonel were at the
girls side simultaneously.
Il am sure l did not mean" be-
gan the colonel.
Let me assist you, miss" and the
lieutenant was lifting her, his arm
around her shoulders and her jaunty
hat resting against his coat sleeve. At
that identical moment the lieutenant
and the colonel parted company as
friends. They did not realize that
they were at the separation of the
ways, but it was so. Miss Dewey
opened her eyes, looked into the
colonels face; then recognized the
lieutenant-and Strengthened up, fully
recovered. They were not strangers;
all had met at Mrs. Marson's recep-
ton a month before.
Il am not hurt-not hurt. But
where is Rex" she asked, looking
anXiously around.
II think, madam" replied the
colonel, bowling with awkward and
old-fashioned courtesy. that he is just

STATESMAN FROM PENNsYLvAN-
IA CALLED BY TAFT TO BE
SECRETARY OF STATE.
ACCEPTS THE OFFICE
ANNOUNCEMENT MADE BY PREsI.
DENT-ELEcT AT AUGUSTA,
GEORGIA.

Augusta, Ga. President-elect
Taft Friday announced the ap-
pointment of United States Sen
ator Philander C. Knox of Penn
sylvania, as secretary of state in
his cabinet. The announcement fol
lowed the receipt by MIR. Taft of a tel
egram conveying the Information from
Mr.. Knox that he would accept the pre-
miership of the Taft Cabinet. Mr.. Taft
without delay announced that the mat
ter was settled. He said the offer
was made to Mr. Knox the previous
Sunday in New York and that since
the offer he had not heard from Mr..
Knox until Fridays telegram.
Senator Knox's first appearance as
a public figure was when he entered
the cabinet of William Mckinley as
attorney general in 1901. He was con-
tinued in the office by President Roose-
welt and served until he resigned in
1904 to accept the appointment of SEN
ator from Pennsylvania.
Senator Knox, while attorney gen
eral, established high record for his
relentless prosecution of so-called
trusts One of his important victories
was the suit against the Northern Sc
curities Company. organized to take
over the capital stock of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern railroads
The government won its case in the
United States court.
Under the old order of things the
defendants could have appealed and
postponed final hearing indefinitely
Mr.. Knox prepared for such contin-
gency and secured the passage
through Congress of an act allowing
but sixty days in which to take an ap-
peal to the United States Supreme
Court, and also providing that in cases
of this character the hearing should
be expedited and decision speedily
reached.
Mr.. Knox also waged notable fight
against the so-called beef trust He
filed an action against seven of the
beef corporations in 1902, charging the
defendants with being in conspiracy
in restraint Of trade.
Judge Grosscup of Chicago issued an
Injunction against the defendants and
the injunction was later made perma-
nent. In an appeal taken 10 tne uhiteu
States Supreme Court, the government
was sustained and the unlawful COM
bination dissolved. Soon afterward Mr..
Knox won suits against fourteen rail-
road corporations charging them with
combination in restraint of trade.
The Panama canal purchase for $4O,-
100000, recently the subject of mes
sage from the President, was actually
carried through by the then attorney
general, P. c. Knox" to use the Presi-
dents own language.
Mr.. Knox was appointed to the SEN
ate by Governor Pennypacker June 10,
1904, to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of NJ. S. Quay. He afterward was
elected for a full term, which would
expire March a, 1911.

ALL INCREASING in
NUMBERS.
LAWS WELL ENFORCED
FIVE THOUSAND ANTELOPE IN
THE STATE AND LARGE
HERDS OF ELK.

Denver--Colorado has been great
game country, is becoming better
game country and In the future will
be one of the greatest game countries
in the United States, according to the
reports, predictions and recommends
tions made by d. E. Farr, state game
and fish commissioner. in his biennial
report submitted to Governor Buch-
tel. Contrary to the general be-
lief, elk, mountain sheep and other
species of wild game are not almost
extinct in the state and in Routt coun-
ty alone the state game warden is
certain there are several herds of elk,
ranging from $50 to 200 in the herd,
while mountain sheep still exist to
the number of several thousand In the
wilder parts of the mountains Five
thousand antelope are reported in the
state.
The report first discloses that the
state game and fish commission has
become a self-supporting Institution,
and that all manner of game has in
creased under protection. Market hunt
ing and game slaughter has been
wiped out There have been IVA
persons convicted of violating the
game laws within the past six months
and these have paid fines aggregating
$S.651 &C, an increase in fines of s3,-
56713 during 1908. Hunting licenses
to the number of 1888 have been is
sued in 1908.
In his report. Warden Farr takes
up the several species of game and re-
ports extensively on each. Best of
all news to the hunters is that pleas
ants will soon be lawful prey. These
birds are Increasing at a rapid rate
and an open season is predicted with
in two or three years. The pheasant
is an insectivorous bird and of great
value to the farmer. An appropriation
of $4,000 is asked to provide a care
taker for pheasants and increase their
numbers
Another appropriation IS asked to
introduce the capercailsie or black
game bird into the state. This species
is of variety that would thrive well
in Colorado and an appropriation of
$4,000 was made to bring it into the
state by~t the last Legislature, but this
amount was found to be insufficient.
Quail. the kind that whistles Bob
White and the crested quail. are in
creasing rapidly under closed sea
son and great sport is predicted with
them in few years.
The state warden recommends a
near closed season on deer, stating
that more were killed this year than
for seven or eight years previous. and
that does and fawns were ruthlessly
slaughtered.
1t is advised that further appropria-
tions be made to keep up the fish
hatcheries and also that a law be
passed to compel owners of irrigation
bitches to screen them to prevent trout
getting in and dying there. Bounties
are asked of the coming Legislature
on coyotes. mountain lions, wild cats
and eagles, these animals of prey be-
ing destructive to the game in some
parts of the state. During the years of
1907 and 1908 the commission has used
$60,029.15 of the $64 10000 appro-
priated to carry it for two years.
