ing in here soon to make trouble for
you. Give him a short answer"
Presently the Milwaukee lawyer en-
tered the car, wearing a high hat and
lofty air
Where is this prisoner charged with
murder, whom they are going to take
to Canada?" he demanded loudly.
There was no reply, and he glanced
around until his eye fell upon Fitz. My
man." he said Importantly, don't you
know you have certain rights in this
country, and only the president can
have you taken out? What are you
charged with?'
That's my business and none of
yours. Amt you glad you found out?''
retorted the prisoner, with infinite rel
ism.
The lawyer turned a vivid scarlet.
You deserve to be hangedr' he snort
ed. and made his exit, pursued by peals
of ironical laughter
Murray reached home safely with
his prisoner and handed him over to
the authorities. Fitzsimmons was tried,
convicted of manslaughter and SEN
fenced to ten years i'm the penitentiary.
The hand of Fate rested heavily on
the four men who were participants
in the fight at the Wallace fair. for all
of them came to tragic ends. Doc Need
ham was murdered; Fitzsimmons died
I'm the penitentiary; Lipsey was killed
in a circus row in a western state, and
later young Needham was killed near
Spring Bank, not far from London, On
tario.
Spring Bank was a picnic place close
to the Indian reserve at Muncietown
Young Needham, no longer young, was
there with numerous Indians on a hoh-
day, in August, 1902. A quarrel arose

companion invitation to drink or
breakfast
There was nothing for it but to re-
sort to a bluff and Murray acted with
promptitude.
Church he said suddenly. I'm
sorry, but I'll have to arrest you"
Arrest me2" roared the big man in
dignantly. What for2'
You stole a canoe and coil of rope
down the river last night, asserted
Murray.
You're an Internal liar retorted
the giant angrily.
It's not what I say, it's what a fell
low over here says returned Murray.
EOver where?" growled the giant.
Show him to me-"
Come on said Murray. encourag-
ingly. Face him and make him take
it back"
Whatever the big man might have
been guilty of in his career. this was
surely one occasion on which he was
wrongfuliy accused, and his spirit
yearned to be revenged upon his accus-
er. He caught al Murray's suggestion
eagerly and accompanied the detective
to the Jail While he waited Murray
sought out the sheriff and laid the case
before him. The sheriff, whose name
was Chandler, on hearing Murrays
story agreed to help him hold the sus-
pected murderer until he could be iden-
titled Chandler called Church in, told
him to step into the next room. and
when he did so locked him in.
Murray FASTENED back TO the hotel
and awakened his roommate. Governor
King dressed himself quickly, and on
the way to the Jail Murray told him
how matters stood. He repinded King
hat in. f,o Eifz
it was only necessary to say that the
latter was not the man who stole the
canoe and rope. If it was Fitz, King
was to talk to him about the folks at
home, tell him how the people felt, and
persuade him to accompany them home,
as legally they had no right to take
him back, without a good deal OF trou-
BILE, unless he was willing to go.
As they approached the jail they
heard a thunderOus rOaring-the voice
of the wrongfulIy accused Church bel

When Murray and his companion en-
tered the room Church's yells ceased
abruptly and he stared at King as

Hello, Harry" said Governor King
! Hello, governor" responded Fitz
meekly.
They shook hands, and after talk
ing about an hour the fugitive consent
ed to return to Canada, and the three
men started that night.
In the morning a fellow passenger OF
the train informed Murray that a law
yer from Milwaukee had heard of the
matter and would try to make trouble
for him with his prisoner. Murray
turned to his charge.

between him and a fellow known as
Big McCarter of London, which termi-
mated in a fistic combat. The two men
were fighting when Needham, who had
not received a blow. suddenly collapsed
and fell like log. His opponent kicked
him savagely as he lay PROSTATE, and
when Needham was picked up he was
beyond the help of man.
McCarter was arrested, but the au-
topsy on the victim showed that while
several of Needham's ribs had been
kicked in, the direct cause Of death was
heart disease. NfCCaTteT was tried and
acquitted on the strength of the sur
geon's stimony-testimOny which also
saved young Needham's fighting record,
and sent him to his grave indicated.

I'm bound down the river right away"
Murray reflected rapidly. He felt
sure that the man was Fitz, but there
was chance that he might be mis-
taken, and there did not seem to be
any way of holding him for King to
make the Identification sure. More
over, the giant was determined to get

MAILER AND THE PHILHARMONIC.

Gustav Mailer has already begun the organiza-
ton of the new Philharmonic Society according to
mis- ideas and is engaging the musicians whom
he wishes to have when the orchestra goes regu-
larry under his direction next year. one of the
conditions on which the distinguished conductor
cepted the post at the head of the new Philhar-
naonic orchestra was the engaging of the best avail
a BILE musicians. This plan corresponded exactly
with the intention Of the guarantors who will fur
nish the best material for the efforts Mr.. Mailer
has already under way.
Gustav Mahler's first appearances with the Phil
harmonic Society however. will be made appro-
prately enough with the organization in its present
form Music lovers viii have the opportunity TO
hear him conduct the organization on March 81 and
Anri, at Carnegie Hall when the composition Of
The orchestra will remain the same that ii has
bsan during recent seasons. Mr.. Mailer has pre-
psred unusually interesting programmes for these
concerts which viii introduce the conductor in
numbers that he has never conducted before.
