When she had finished Daniel was
leaning well back on the table.
Your father and mother-both--
came from Missouri. didn't they?'
He sighed heavily, and she hung her
head. Hawcastle looked toward the
open door of the room and touched his
son upon the shoulder. When they had
reached the door the earl looked back
and shook his fist at Pike.
"You haven't heard the last of this,

quickly. Lady Creech, who had been
in a semi-swooning condition, came
suddenly out of her trance and gazed
sharply about her.
Don't humble your words" she
said sharply and rose to her feet
With whitening glance at Pike she
turned to Ethel.

Horace came suddenly to life and

Lady Creech." he said Il will look
after her-in the future
Lady Creech put up her lorgnette
and stared at him and with naughty
sniff left the room with the air Of a
conqueror. Pike gazed after her whim-
sically.
There goes the last of the en-
presses" he said and looked down at
his feet
Twice Ethel essayed to speak, and
twice she put out her hand in his di-
rection. and both times she failed.
Then. with a choking little sob, she
picked up her dress and fairly ran
from the room Horace followed her
quickly, and still Pike stood there in
an attitude of incomprehension.
The point he had striven for had
failed He had shown this girl the
true rottenness of the people she had
tried so hard to ally herself with, and
the knowledge had failed to move her.
His brilliant plan had recoiled upon
his own head and had resulted In more
firmly implanting sense of duty in
her heart He saw no way out now.
At first it had been a desire now it
had become duty. and he wondered
If he had the right to withhold from
her her patrimony.
1t was not until he saw a dark
figure with a bag in its hand walk
quickly down the steps and out through
the entrance garden. not until he had
heard the creak Of carriage springs
and the muttered directions and then
the crunch of the wheels. that he
awoke. He called passing servant
Mariana, it proved it beand question

'tWho was thatT' he asked.
Mariana bowed deeply.
"It is milor' the Earl Of Hawcastle,"
he replied HE has gone to keep the
appointment he have made some days
since at Napoli, it is said.''

u. S. ATTORNEY HEALING

Like whln or oxygen INTO a
foul room, comes Mr. Kealing's
resignation as United States At,
torney for Indiana. 1t is not the
resignation of an official antici-
pating removal, nor of one passing
on to more profitable private en-
ployment, nor of one seeking
escape from a disagreeable official
duty. 1t is the resignation of
man who relinquishes Office rather
than participate in an assault up
on our Constitutional safeguards
against Capitalization of power.
AS United States Attorney, Mr..
Healing was confronted with the
requirement that he assist in the
extradition of the proprietors Of
the Indianapolis News to Wash
ingtoD for trial upon federal in
dictment found in the District of
Columbia for an alleged libel pub
lished in the News at indianapolis.
To thoughtless citizens this seems
a small matter. To those who
know the history of the progress
of liberty, as Mr. Healing evidently
does, it involves vital consequences.
If men can be hailed from Indiana
to Washington for trial for libel
ing the President of the United
States in an Indianapolis paper,
upon pretense that it was pub
lished in Washington because
copies went there, then newspaper
proprietors, publishers and editors,
those who cannot afford the ex.
pense, as well as those who can
may hereafter be dragged across
the continent for trial for libel, if
peradventure single copy of
their paper finds its way to Wash
ington. To establish such a prec-
edent is to place the press of the
whole country at the mercy of
Washington oligarchy.
"As to the guilt or innocence of
the defendants on the question Of
libel" he says, II do not attempt
to say. If guilty, they should be
prosecuted, but properly indicted
and prosecuted in the right place.
viz, their homes Proceeding then
to explain that it is only with the
question of removal to Washing.
ton for trial that he has TO do, Mr.
Healing says:
Il am not in accord with the
government in its attempt to put
strained construction on the law,
to drug the defendants from their
homes to the seat Of the govern.
ment to be tried and punished,
while there is good and sufficient
law in this jurisdiction, in the
State court. l believe the princi.
pie involved is dangerous, striking
ut the very foundation Of our form
OF government. l cannot, there.
fore honestly and consci entiously
insist to the court that such 10 the
law, or that such construction
should be put on il. Not being
able to do this, l do not feel that
can, in justice to my Office, con.
tinue to hold il, and decline to
assist. The Public.

C. ]. Ferris

Charles Jackson Ferris was
born May 8, 1881, in Norway
township, Herkimer county, N.
Y, and died March %, 1909, at
Kansas City, Mo-, where he was
temporarily residing.
When Mr.. Ferris was about
seven years old his family moved
to Galesburg, Illinois, that town
having been founded by the
Gales and Ferrises, two related
families. He secured a better
than average education for those
days in Knox academy, Gales
burg, and was married to Sarah
J. Lipe at Knoxville May 6, 1851.
Some years later, hoping to i'm
prove his health. he moved to
Portage City, Wisconsin, and re-
mained there twelve years, Serv
ing as county surveyor most of
that time. Still in search of
health he left Galesburg a sec
ond time and filed on a home
stead in Trego county, Kansas,
about nine miles southwest of
Wa-Keeney This was in 1879,
UuS 1dHIlly IhONl1S OuU III OIIC
spring of 1880. Being appointed
deputy for County Surveyor
Peck, and later appointed to the
office, Mr. Ferris moved his fa-
mily to Wa-Keeney which has
been their home for the last
twenty seven years. He was
nine times elected surveyor Of
Trego county and served in that
capacity about twenty years. The
present Ferris House was built
by him in 1885 and since Christ
mas day of that year it has been
the family home, becoming well
known for its hospitality and
home-ike comforts
Mr.. and Mrs, Ferris in recent
years made two trips to the Pa
cific coast and last fall went down
to Kansas City to spend the win
ter. Several years ago Mr.. Fer
riS selected choice lots in the
WaKeeney city cemetery and in
accordance with his expressed
wish his remains were brought
here for interment Funeral ser
vices were held at the PreSbyte-
rian church Thursday afternoon
of last week, conducted by Rev.
Mr.. Lee who was pastor of the
Episcopal church of this place
more than fifteen years, coming
here from Manhattan to perform
this last service according to
previous promise to the deceas-
ed. Services at the grave were
conducted by the Masonic lodge
of Wa-Keeney to which Mr.. Fer
ris has belonged since 1888. He
joined the Craft at Galesburg in
1852 and for a time was mem
ber of Galesburg Chapter No. 46,

COLLEGE FUND GROWING.
Many Recent Contributions To-
wards the D. X. Pearson
Fund-The Goal in Sight.

Responses to the recent appeals OF
President Thomas to the people of Mid
dlebury and vicinity and to the Alumni
of the College have been coming in rapid
ly the last few days, and it would look as
if the College were to succeed in securing
the 100000. Were it not for DIR. Pear
sons condition that the $4,000 must be
actually in hand and not merely pledged,
the end of the movement would be pro-
claimed very shortly. Several large
contributors have specified that they
would give the last amounts toward the
SIS 900, so that the end is really nearer
in sight than appears by the figures.
Treasurer John A. Fletcher reported on
April 7th that the College had SOL ,S76 80.
in its treasury on this fund. $4,000
can be had in New York by return mail
when Mr.. Fletcher can report 900.
There should certainly be many more
from Addison County who should take a
part in this effort of the College, The
members of the Faculty have shown
their spirit in the matter by contribu-
tions as follows:
