Gordon Rides Into the Count

Gordon Rides Into the Country.
Gordon rode aimlessly out OF The lit
tie town with its twinkling lights.
He did not care where he went m
what direction he pursued. He wanted
TO ride off a strange, enerNating deiec-
ton that had laid hold OF him the
moment his last testimony had gone
in. 1t all seemed so ptfuily made
without Wilistcn-now that il
it? 1t could only go for another de-
feat counted against him. Though
what was one defeat more OF less
when there had been so many. 1t
would be nothing new Was he not
pursuing merely the old beaten trail9
Why should the thought weigh so
heavily now? Can man never attain
to that higher-or lower, which is it,
altitude of strifeless, unregretful
hardness? Or was it, he asked him
self in savage contempt of his weak
ness, that, despite all his generous and
iron-clad resolutions, he had secretly
unconSciously perhaps. cherished a
sweet, shy, little reservation in his in
most heart that maybe-if he won
out
You poor fool" he said, aloud, with
bitter harshness.
Suppose he did. A brave speci-
men, he, if he had the shameful ego.
ism to ask a girl-a girl like Louise
a gentle, highbred, protected. cherish
ed girl like that--to share this new.
bleak, rough life with him. But the
very sweetness of the thought of her
doing it made him gasp there in the
darkness. How sitting the air was.
He lifted his hat. 1t was hard to
breathe. 1t was like the still oppres-
siveness preceding an electrical storm.
His mare, unguided, had naturally
chosen the main-traveled trail aud
kept it. She followed the mood OF her
master and walked leisurely along
while the man wrestled with himself
If he really possessed the hardihood
to ask Louise to do this for him she
would laugh at him. Stay. That was
lie-a black lie. She would not
laugh-not Louise. She was not of
that sort. Rather would she grieye
over the inevitable sadness OF it. Ii
she laughed. he could bear it better
he had good, stubborn. self-respecting
blood in him-but she would not laugh.

The document was produced, mark
ed as an exhibit, and offered in evil
dence.
The hearing of testimony for the
state went on all through that day 1t
was late when the state rested it's
case-so late that the defence would
not be taken up until the following
day. 1t was all in-for veal or for
woe. In some way all of the states
witnesses-with the possible excep-
ton of Munson, who would argue with
the angel Gabriel at the last day and
offer to give him lessons in trumpet
blowing-had been imbued with the
earnest, honest, Straightforward policy
of the states counsel. Gordons friends
We're hopeful. Langford was jublant,
and he believed in the tolcrab,e in
tegrity of Gordon's hard-won jury.
Gordon's presentation of the case thus
far had made him friends; tickle
friends, maybe, who would turn when
the wind turned-to-morrow- true
it was that when court adjourned late
in the afternoon, many who had ieered
at him as visionary or ar unwel-
come meddler acknowledged to them
selves that they might have erred in
their judgment.
AS on the previous night, Gordon
was tired He walked aimlessly to
window within the bar and leaned
against it, looking at the still. oppres-
sive, cloudy dampness outside, with
the early December darkness coming
on apace. Lights We're already twink

ment. When he returned, Gordon was
gone He was not at supper.

When the party separated for the
night, Gordon had not yet returned.

George Williston of the Lazy S."
Now you may tell the jury in what
words Williston told you about the

This, of course, was objected to and
the objection was sustained by the
court, as Gordon knew it would be.
He only wanted the jury to remember
that Williston could have told dam
aging story had he been here, and also
to remember how mysteriously this
same Williston had disappeared He
could not have Williston or Willistons
story, but he might keep an impress

there was story-he knew it and
they knew it-a story of which some
CROCHET of the law forbade the telling.

Story of Assassination


The accounts of spectators Of the as
sassination vary, but it is established
definitely that they occurred at the
Praca do Commerce. after the members
of the royal family had debarkeS from
the train at Barriero and thence crossed
the Tagus on ferrybOat to the Lisbon
landing, where they entered II carriage
and were driven off.
A smiling maiden had offered beau
tiful bouquet of roses to the queen, and
it was these that the queen later. in a
flood of motherly instinct. vainly
sought to protect her son from death
Manuel himself his father and brother
being MORALLY wounded, drew re
volver and fired repeatedly at the muir
derers until his arm was struck by an
assassin's bullet.
Returning from IA sojourn at the
kings estate at Villa Nicosa. accom-
panied by the queen. the crown prince
and the Infant Manuel. the sovereign,
was seemingly in happy mood when
he stepped into the carriage in waiting
at the railroad station. Thousands of
spectators. gaily attlred, in combina-
ton with the bright decorations set out
to welcome the royal family. made an
animated scene.
The entire court. ministers and
ladies in waiting and many army off
GERS were in the station when the trail,
drawing the royal family pulled in.
The weather was glorious and the sun
was almost setting AT the moment the
royal party came back to Lisbon at the
end of day which was marked by the
sternest OF repressive measures.

1t was because of the beautiful
weather that an open carriage was in
