Hanged by HIS Hair.

TO such a battle there could be only
one issue. The forces OF selfishhess and
greed and disunion were arrayed
against q trained army, animated by
one purpose. Twenty thousand of Abb
saiom's host fell before David's men
and in flight through the woods. AS
for Absalom himself, that hair which
had been his pride and delight became
his undoing. As he rode furiously
through the woods on a mule to save
his own precious ife-talking no
thought of rallying or resculng those
who had staked their all upon his
specious pretences-his mad flight was
strangely arrested. He was caught by
the hair, or by the head in the low
hanging branches of an oak. The mule
sped on from beneath him, and there
he hung between heaven and EARTH" n
rare Instance of poetic Justice. The
source OF his pride was the cause of his
pef1shing. There was nobody now to
nssist him. Courtiers and sycophants
were in selfish flight. The lips that had
spoken honeyed words of adulation
we're screaming in terror or still In
aeath His was an army of self-seek-
lrB. each ready to abandon his leader.

LAID PLOT TO MURDER
Nick Butkovitch Was to be Victim
Plan Given 10 Police-Two
Arrests Made.

Last night the. police discovered a
plot on the part of two Greek Catho-
lies to murder Nick Butkovitch,
prominent saloon keeper and a recog-
nized leader among the Austrian Ro-
man Catholics. Mr.. Butkovitch has
been active in trying to discover the
leaders of the religious fight at Gar
field which has so far cost four lives,
He has acted several times as an in
terpreter in the courts and whenever
any of his countrymen get into trouble
they appeal to him because of his In
fluence.
Last night a man who had been In
the plot to murder Butkovitch came to
him and told him of the plans. He
said that $3.50 was to be paid for his
murder. When the police learned of
the murderous scheme they at once be-
gan AN investigation which last night
led TO the arrest of Joe Zillis and Nick
Dockwitz by Policeman Kast. Zillis
was armed with Il revolver and it is
believed that the two men were on
their way to carry out the murderous
intentions when Kast arrested them.
The man who gave the scheme away to
Butkovitch is being sheltered by the
latter.
