FIRST TRAFFIC
RIPAR!A ROAD
TRAIN BROUGHT EMPTY CARS
TO STATIONS ON LOWER RIv-
Err THAT ARE NOW BEING
FILLED WITH GRAIN

"There is no truth in the rumor
that train was sent to North Lew
iston yesterday morning over our
new road" said G. w. Mount yester-
day. The report probably resulted
from the fulfillment of the promise
of the road to send empty cars to
move the grain now in the ware
houses on the lower part of the line.
This promise was fulfilled yes
terday, when SO empty grain cars
We're delivered at Wawawai and sew
en- empties at the warehouse at
Penawawai. These cars are now be-
ing filed with grain, and it is prob
able that they will be ready to move
by tomorrow or Saturday at the lat
est. / suppose that in case these
cars prove insufficient the company
will send additional cars to these
points. as the warehouses have been
filed to overtiowing there and re-
lief was much needed.
AS for the completion of the
Clearwater bridge and the opening
of traffic ON the Riparia line into
Lewiston, | can say nothing definite,
having received no orders along
these lines. 1t would seem that,
with the entire line in readiness to
operate, the road would not neglect
the completion of so small link for
any great length of time, though of
course this is my personal opinion,
unsupported by any advices from
the company.
AS far as the completion OF the
road beng necessary for the proper
handling of the traffic this fall, it
seems that the present transnorta-
tion facilities are amply sufficient.
With the completion of the North
Iern Pacific Grangeville extension

be opened which will necessitate the

ATTACK UPON FIREMEN BY JAP
MOB FOR ACCIDENTAL BREAK
ING OF WINDOW is re-
SENTED
Danger That Hundreds of Unem-
ployed in City May Be Infamed
by Demonstration and Precipitate
Bloodshed

PORTLAND, Jan. "A special
dispatch from Vancouver, B. c., to
the Evening Telegram says feeling
runs high in that city as result or
an attack of band of Japanese
upon three firemen last night, fol-
lowing the accidental breaking of
window in a Japanese store.
One of the firemen playful1y
showed companion in such a man
ner that he could not regain his
balance, and he fell against the
window.
In the fight which followed the
enraged Japanese badly cut one Of
the firemen with knives.
Only the boisterous weather,
which keeps people off the streets,
has. perhaps, prevented demon
stration of more or less serious pro-
portions
The danger lies in the fact that
there are hundreds or unemployed
in the city. Five Japanese have
heen arrested as a result Of the aft
fray.

FRED D., SON OF CAREY L. CORY
ELL, PETITIONS TO HAVE
WILL IN PROBATE SET ASIDE
ESTATE INVOLVES $25, 1000
Allegation That Deceased Was La
boring Under Insane Illusion as
Regards His Heir When He
Made the Codicil

Claiming that his father, Carey
l.. Coryell, was laboring under an
insane delusion concerning him;
that he was incompetent and that
the document purporting to be his
will is not such in fact, Fred D.
Coryell has today filed a petition in
the probate court to set aside the
will. The estate involved about
$25,000, according to the appraisal
made at the time the will was filed.
The will of Carey L. Coryell was
probated on April so, 1907 and pro-
vided for the distribution of the es-
tate among five of the six heirs,
leaving his son, Fred d. Coryell, en-
tirely out of the bequests. At a
later date than the drawing of the
will a codicil had been added by
which his son became equally inter-
ested in the division of the estate,
with the provision that trustee
should be appointed to have charge
#5OI HIS pOItIOn LOi ~ y SdI 1AS WI :
Corye1l is now about 40 years old,
this would mean that he could not
secure the control of his share un-
til in the vicinity of so years of age.
IN his petition Mr.. Coryell
>claims that his father was not in
mental condition to make will at
the time the document was drawn
up; that he was laboring under an
insane de1usion relative to Fred D..
Corve1l: that there was, at the time
the win was probated. insufficient
proof that the win was genuine, and
furthermore that it is not the viii of
his father.
The petition was filed late this
afternoon by the attornev for Mr..
Corveil, q. Orr McMinnin1v, and it is
understood that the other five CO.
heirs win not contest It. No date
has been set for the hearing.

wrung them his lips moved, but nc
vocal prayers issued from them. He
lifted his hands above his head, ut
tered cry and fell forward on his
face upon the oak floor. Near his hand
was his stick with which he raped
against the wall or on the floor when
he needed assistance. He laid hold
of this. and tried to raise himself, but
faintness came over him, and he fell
again and lost consciousness.
When he recovered sufficiently to
see what and who were about him, he
found that he had been lifted on to his
bed by Jasper and Barbara, and that
Jane was in the room. His motion
with his hands, his strain to raise
himself, had disturbed the bandages
and reopened his wound, which
was again bleeding, and indeed had
soaked through his clothes and
stained the floor.
He said nothing, but his eyes
watched and followed Jasper with a
mixture of hatred and fear in them

CHAPTER XXI.
Called to Account
Co. said Mr.. Jordan, bring Eve tc

Barbara obeyed mechanically She
had betrayed Jasper. Her father
would not spare him The granite
walls of Princes Town prison rose
before her, in the midst of a waste
as bald as any in Greenland or ST
IBERIA. She called her sister, babe he1
go into her fathers room, and then
standing in the hail. placed her ell
bows on the window ledge, and rested
her brow and eyes in her palms She
was consigning Jasper back to that
miserable Jail. She was incensed
against him. She knew that he was
unworthy of her regard, that he had
forfeited all right to her considera
ton, and yet-she pitied him. She
could not bring herself to believe
that he was utterly bad; to send him
again to prison was to ensure his
complete ruin.
Eve said Mr.. Jordan, when his
youngest daughter came timidly into
the room, tell me, whom did you
meet on the Raven Rock?'
The girl hung her head and made
no reply. She stood as a culprit be-
fore Judge, conscious that his case
is hopeless.
Eve he said again, 4 insist on
knowing Whom did you meet?'
She tried to speak, but something
rose in her throat, and choked her
She raised her eyes timidly to her
father, who had never, hitherto
spoken an angry word to her. Tears
and entreaty were in her eyes, but
the room was dark, night had fallen,
and he could not see her face.
Eve, tell me, was it Babb?'
She burst into a storm of sobs, and
threw himself on her knees. o

No found a bundle of his
Clothes
I do not understand
1t came about this way. There was
a roll on the saddle of his horse, and
when came to undo it, that / might
put it away, found that it was a
convict suit Mr.. Jordan stared.
'Yes,' continued Barbara, speaking
quickly, anxious to get the miserable
tale told. Yes, papa, l found the
garments which betrayed him. When
he came to himself l showed them to
him, and asked if they were his. AT
forwards l heard all the particulars;
how he had robbed his own father of
the money laid by to repay you an
old loan, how his father had prose
cuted him, and how he had been sent
to prison; how also he had escaped
from prison. 1t was as he was flying
to the lamar to cross it, and get as
far as he could from pursuit, that he
met with his accident, and remained
here
.Merciful heaven!' exclaimed Mr..
Jordan; you knew all this, and never
told me-
I told no one.' answered Barbara,
because / promised him that would
not betray him. and even now l would
have said nothing about it but that
you tell me that you know it as well
of& vi q
drawn long breath, mo, not even
after all the provocation he has given
would betray him.
Mr.. Jordan looked as one dazed.
Where then are these clothes
this convict suit?'
In the garnet. / hid them there.
Let me see them / cannot yet
understand
Barbara left the room, and shortly
returned with the bundle. She I'M
folded it, and spread the garments be-
fore her father. He rubbed his eyes,
pressed his knuckles against his
temples, and stared at them with as.
tonishment.
so then, 1t was he--Jasper Babb-
who stole Bve's money!
Yes, papa.
And he was taken and locked up
for doing so-where!
In Princes Town prison
And he escaped?
Yes, papa, As was on my way to
Ashburton, passed through Princes
Town, and thus heard Of tt
Barbara, why did you keep this
secret from me? If had known 1t,
would have run and taken the news
myself to the police and the warders,
and have had him recaptured whilst
he was III in bed, unable to escape
1t was now Barbara's turn to ex-
press surprise.
But, dear papa, what do you mean?
You have told me yourself that you
knew ali about Mr. Jasper
4 knew nothing OF this. My God!
How thick the black spots are. and
how big and pointed!

My darling he replied, I am not
angry. l am troubled. / am on rock
and hold you in my arms, and the
black sea is rising-I can feel it..
Leave me alone, am not myself.
An hour later Barbara came in.
What, papa-without light?'
'Yes-it is dark everywhere, within
as without The black spots have
run one into another and filled me. 1t
will be better soon. When Jasper
Babb shows his face again, he shall
be given up.
% papa, let him escape this time.
All we now want is to get him away
from this place, away from Eve
All we now want!' repeated Mr..
Jordan. Let the man off who has
beggared Eve!'
Papa, Eve will be well provided
for
He has robbed her.
But, dear papa, consider He has
been your guest. He has worked for
you, he has eaten at your table, par
taken of your salt. When you were
hurt, he carried you to your bed. He
has been devoted servant to you
We are quits said Mr.. Jordan He
was nursed when he was ill. That
makes up for all the good he has done
me. Then there is that other ac-
count which can never be made up.
I am sure, papa, he repents'
And tries to snatch away Eve, as
he snatched away her fortune?'
Papa, there / think he may be ex-
cused Consider how beautiful Eve
is. 1t is quite impossible for a man
to see her and not love her. l do not
myself know what love is, but / have
read about it, and I have fancied to
myself what it is-a kind of madness
that comes on one, and obscures the
judgment / do not believe that Mr.
Jasper had any thought of Eve at
first, but little by little she won him.
You know. papa, how she has run
after him, like kitten; and so she
has stolen his heart out of his breast
before he knew what she was about.
Then, after that, everything -honor
duty went I dare say it is very hard
for one who loves to think calmly and
act consciously! Would you like the
lights brought in, papa?'
He shook his head.
You must not remain up longer
than you can bear she said. She
took a seat on a stool, and leaned
her head on her hand, her elbow rest
ing on her knee. Papa, whilst / have
been waiting in the hall, I have turn
ed the whole matter over and over in
my mind. Papa, suppose that Ewes
mother was, very, very beautiful
He sighed in the dark and put his
hands together The pale twilight
through the window shone on them;
they were white and ghost-like.
Papa, dear, suppose that you saw
her when she was i'll every day, and
got to love her. I dare say you
struggled against the feeling, but
your heart was too strong for your
head and carried your resolutions
away, just as have seen a flood on
the lamar against the dam at Alb

structions, and in a moment every
trace of the dam has disappeared.
You were under the same roof with
