keen blue eyes, an aggressive chin, a
repellent mouth, Henry Cavenaugh was
the personification of the modern Croe.
sus. Immutable IL purpose, logged in
perseverance, relentless enemy, a
Jesuit in that the end always justified
the means, he stood a pillar In the
world of finance, where there is
sometimes justice, but never any
mercy Thirty-five years before he
had been a messenger in a stock
brokers' office. OF his antecedents
nothing was known until he broke
one of the famous gold corners in the
seventies, when a handsome, rudy
checked little Irishman bobbed up Sc
renely from nowhere in particular and
claimed to be the great Cavenaugh's
father. But his proofs were not con-
vincing, and when the son showed q
decided contempt for him, he gently
subsidized into oblivion and was heard
of no more From time to time Car
rington gathered a small crumb of in
formation regarding his sweetheart's
grandfather; but whenever he
preached the subject, however tact
fully, everybody concerned headed the
conversation for a different port.
Darlington had never laid eyes on
the old gentleman, and, for all he knew
to the contrary, he might be a myth.
He reasoned that in all probability the
grandfather was illiterate, uncouth,
and rather an awkward piece of family
furniture to handle, when the family
proper were ingratiating themselves
into the Chippendales of society I'm.
fortunately, Mother Cavenaugh, good
hearted and amiable in her way, had
been stung by the bee of the climbers,
and her one ambition was to establish
herself and daughters in society; and
had not he, Darlington, come of an
aristocratic family (poor, it is true),
the doors of the Cavenaugh manor
would never have opened to his knock.
Even as it was, he was persona non
grata to the millionaire, who was mad
for duke in the family. Besides Cave
naugh had his suspicious of any law
yer who grubbed outside the breast
works.
Some doves circled above a church
sn!Te a few streets over. the way,
breaking the sunbeams against their
polished wings. Finally they settled
on the slate roof and fell to strutting
and waddling and swelling their
breasts pompously. Darlington opened
and refolded the document, but he did
not take his eyes from the doves.

A State Grain Tax Upheld.

In the criminal court at Kansas City
Judge Latshaw decided that it was
constitutional for the state to demand
a stamp tax of % cents on all board Of
trade transactions. The case came up
two years ago when the tax was put
on the boards of trade in Kansas City,
St. Joseph and st. Louis by the state
legislature. The boards decided to
collect the tax and hold it until the
case could be tested. Thomas j..
Broadnax and Frank Essex, president
and vice-president of the board of
trade at the time, were the defend
ants. Judge Latshaw decided that the
money collected should be paid the
state. Kimbrough Stone, attorney for
the defendants, said that the case
would be appealed to the supreme
court.

What should he do? What Ill wind
had blown this thing into his door
way? Nothing had warned him of the
impending tangle. Until two days ago
Cavenaugh was at the other end of the
world, so far as his Investigations at
that time were concerned.
He struck a match. The silver of
pine fiared palely in the sunshine,
writhed and dropped, black and
charred, to the floor. He shrugged his
shoulders. Chivalry of this sort was
not the order of the day There was
something stronger than the voice Of
duty, something stronger than the
voice Of the heart; it was the voice
of pity, which urged its appeal for the
hundreds of men and women who had
invested their all in the Cavenaugh
concerns. The thought of their ulti-
mate ruin, should Cavenaugh be per
mitted to pursue his course unchecked,
bore heavily upon him. No, he could
not do 1t. He must fight, even If he
lost his all in the battle. 1t is a fine
thing to right a wrong. All the great
victories in the world have been won
for others than the victces. That
Cavenaugh was the father ~ the girl
he loved must have no weight on the
scales of justice.
Resolutely he thrust the document
into his coat pocket, closed his desk
and relighted his cigar In that mo-
ment he had mapped out his plan OF
action. That very night he would
Lay the whole thing very clearly be-
fore the girl herself, and whatever
decision she made. he would stand or
fall by 1t, for he knew her to be the
sovl of honor.
PoTr girl! 1t was heart-breaking
business. How in the world should
he begin, and where should he stop?
All, that was I'll He would lay the
matter before her In a manner that
would conceal the vital nearness Of
the case, as IL 1t were some client OF
his who was unknown to her. And
when she judged the case, he would
speak the bald truth. 1t would be a
cruel blow. but nevertheless he must
deal It. She loved her father, and
after hts own peculiar fashion her IA
Their loved her. She was the only one
in the family whoScould wheedle him
out OF purpose; to the rest of the
family his word was law immutable.
Il was very hard, sighed Darlington.
For the father he had neither pity nor
sympathyi there were many ugly
tales about hia financial dealings; but

Plattonsbura Needs Help.

Gov. Hadley has received a letter
from Robert E. Haupin, mayor Of
Pattonsburg, in which the latter went
into some details in describing the
effects of the recent food at that
place. Mr. Maupin perfaced his state
ment by saying that half the truth
has never been printed. The town
has a population of 1900 and Mr..
Maupin says that fully half the people
lost all their household goods and all
their stock and fowls. Water stood
from six inches to ten feet in every
house in the town. He says the peo-
pie need shelter, clothing and pro-
visions. The governor forwarded tents
and clothing recently and he has call
ed upon citizens generally to send
money contributions to the mayor.

A Case for Sympathy.

Two matrons of a certain western
city, whose respective matrimonial
ventures did not in the first instance
prove altogether satisfactory, met at
a woman's club one day, when the

Tom, the day before yesterday. We

conviets viii Not Wear Stripes.

ConVicts VIII Not wear stripes,
A radical innovation was ordered in
the management of the Missouri peni-
Tertiary when the board of prison in
spectors, composed of State Treasur-
er James Cowgirl, State Auditor John
p. Gordon and Attorney General E. w.
Major, directed Warden Henry An
drae to prepare for the practical
abandonment of stripes, and to uni.
form the convicts according to grades.
Several months will be required to
make the change entirely effective,
and all the details of the plan have
not yet been evolved. Generally
speaking it is designed by the board
to have a special uniform for the pris-
oners who conduct themselves accord
ing to the rules. There are to be
several ordinations Of clothing, &C
cording to the merit of the inmates.
Those who have attained the high
merit uniform will be reduced to the
uniform denoting an inferior grade
when they violate the rules. The
striped clothing will be retained in a
restricted degree for the incorrigibles.

A Suicide at Six Years oId7

Charles Currin, the six-year-old son
of a packing house workman at the
Morris plant in South St. Joseph, shot
himself and died soon after. The
shooting appears to have been a DELHI
crate case of suicide, although it is
not thought the lad realized what the
result would be. He was at home
with two older brothers at the time
and he strongly corroborated their
statement that the wound was self
inflicted. before he lost consciousness.
~0.-ner Byrd will investigate the case.

The third degree-the spectacular, blood
curdling, terrifying third degree that the
magazine and melodrama writers like to
talk about-is a myth. There never has
been any such soul-trying experience in
store for the wrongdoer who falls into the
hands of the authorities since the days of
the Spanish inquisition.
The third degree to-day is a duel of
wits-a matching of will and power, with
the detective or inquisitor pitting his
strength of will and force of argument
against that of the suspect. No physical
force is used, no intimidation through bod
