 That last sentence of Max Figman's pIications of most entertaining com. edy had been unwouud In a happy end- ing, sums up as no other words can the offering at the Grand at matinee and night Wednesday.
 The story of "The Substitute" has to do with young lawyer, one James Smith, who, to help out a prospective brother-In-law who Is overcome by the heat of New York summers day, Is to supply 6 pulpit in little Connect icut town. Unable to find a substitute at the theological seminary. Smith un- dertakes to fill the pulpit himself. He arrives at the parsonage of West Ap- pleford. and the complications which follow are wound about prettily told love story. Incidentally there is a de- fense of divorce.
 FigTnan couples the centre of the stage q great deaI of the time. and yet he Is not the whole show by a long shot. One can't help but enjoy the character of Aunt Esther Diffly who suspects that the substitute Is not what he pre- tends to be because of his "Astorbilt hours for breakfast. and his knowledge of just the right place to say damn.P A refreshing character. that of Aunt Esther. A character that helps "The Substitute" along to the success 1t achieved at The Grand last night. and which 1t will achieve in other the- atreS.
 Montgomery theatre goers knew that Max Figman was worth seeing, and two appreciative audiences were present to see "The Substitute" But in addition to the fact that Max Figman was to be seen in the leading role, Montgoms erians. seeing ''rhe Road to, Yester- day" last season, were prepared for something good from the same authors of the past seasons success Beulnh Dix and Evelyn Sutherland.

Trimmer was frightened into soberness; at
least into soberness sufficient to protect HIM

Indian coming from Culvers office, with blood
on his hands. The Indian had gone straight
westward from the town, to elude pursuit in
the mountains.
The fact that Van had been at Queeny's side
at her death became town property at once
1t came IN all promptness to Beth.
With feeling of sickness pervadng all her
being she was glad to have Bostwick take her
home.
TT was late when at last the street was clear
and Van could finally make his escape from
danger and returning friends. Dave by then
had found himself that IS, he made his way
thus tardily to the horsemans side, and the
two went at length to their dinner
At half-past eight, with the moon well UP,
Dave and Van were ready for departure. Their
horses were saddled. One extra animal was
packed with needed provisions for the crew on
the Laughing Water claim Van had ordered
all he could for Queeny's final journey,-the
camps best possible funeral, which he could
not remain to attend. There nothing to do
but to mount and to ride away. But-Beth
down at Mrs. Dicks.
Resistance was useless. Bidding Dave wait
with the horses at the yard, Van made his way
round through the shadows of the houses and,
coming out upon rocky HILL little removed
from the boarding place, was startled to see
Beth abruptly rise before him.
The house had oppressed her-and the moon

Queeny smiled at Van again, terribly. Her
fingers felt like iron rods pressing into his
flesh As if to complete her remuneration, she
dropped his hand abruptly. She mastered some
violent CONFUSION that left the merest flicker
of her light.
"Goodby, Van! Good luck!" she whispered

THE moon was up. 1t shone obliquely down
into all that rock lined basin, surrounded
by the stern forbidding hills,-the ancient,

Culver the Government representative in

CHAPTER XXI.
In the Shadow of the Rope

MOB madness is beyond explanation Cattle
AvA stampedlng no more senseeSs than
men in such state. Goldite, however. was not
only habitually KEYED to the highest of tension,
but it had recently been excited to the break
ing point by several contributing factors. Law
less thefts of one anothers claims. high pressure
over the coming rush to the Indian reservation,
and a certain apprehension engendered by the
deeds of those liberated convlcts,-all these
elements had aroused an over-revulsion of feel
ing toward the reign Of some manner Of law.
And the primal laws the laws that spring
into being at such time as thls,-the laws
that cry out for an eye for an eye and swift
ness of legal execution.
Into the vortex of Goldite'S sudden revulsion
Van swept like straw There real
chance for hearing His friends of the morn
ing had lost all sense of loyalty. They
almost as crazed as those whom his recent sue
cess had irritated. The story of his row with
Culver had gone throughout the confines of the
camp. No link in the chain of crcumstantial
evidence seemed wanting to convict him. a
shouting, bawling, law demanding sea of human
beings surrounded him with violence and men
ace.
To escape the overweight citizens, the
Sheriff, assuming charge of Van. dragged him
on top of Il stack of lumber piled three feet
high before a building. The cry for rope and
lynching began with promptness that few
would have expected. In normal times it could
scarcely have been preached.
Snatching new-Inade deputies hit or miss
from the mob and SuTnmarliy demanding their
services, the Sheriff exerted his utmost powers
to stem the tide that was rising
SOMETHING akin to trial began then and
= there. big red-faced drummer from Chi
cago, a man whom Van had never seen became
his voluntary advocate, standing between him
and the mob. He had power, that man, both
of limb and presence. His voice also was
mighty. He showed men about like rubber
puppets and shouted his demands for law and
order
Van, who had flung off half dozen citizens,
who in the excitement had felt some fanatcal
necessity for clutchng at him, faced the human
wolves about him III a spirit of angry resent
ment. The big man from Chicago moved his
way to the pile of lumber and clambered up
there by the Sheriff. The pile raised its occu-
pants only well above the surgng pack of faces
'Stop your bowling! Shut up your nose!"
roared the drummer from his elevation. " Don't
you want to give this chance?" He was
. heard throughout the street.
Hes got to prove his innocence or hangi"
cried some one shrilly. "A murder foul as that
Another bawled, Where was he then?
Make him tell where he at six o'clock"
Culver's watch had been shattered and
stopped at precisely six O'Clock, presumably by
his fall against table in his office. when he sud-
denly went down. at the hands of his assassin.
