THE BURDEN OF PROOF"

The kick that No. III had delivered
was an ugly one. and evidently they
were now taking him to the hospital
Next morning attendants entered
Bob's cell and Inspected Il. The bath
trusty lowered near and told them that
he had heard Bob fling.
Daring could hear their remarks
'Seel' cried one of them. He'd al
most worked through one of these win
dow bars
Must have mad a pretty poor file"
commented the other
Then he turned to the trusty to ask:
Got any notion what he used2'
No; whatever it was it didn't make
much noise. I've heard files before II
wasn't one of the regular kind"
mo. 1t didn't do good work, but /
guess he'd have got through two or
three OF these bars without much trou-
Lucky I heard him." ventured No.
III
"Oh, you hear everything. If any
thing gets past you II must be some
thing pretty quiet
well, that's more or less my busi-
ness was the reply.
They pounded around Bobs cell for
p quarter of an hour without finding
anything else that held their interest.
L wish we could find what ne used.
The captain would like TO add 1t TO his
collection, I guess.
Maybe he's got = on him." suggested
mo. they searched him well this
morning, bet there was nothing doing.
There isn't a sign of anything on the
man"
I don't see what could have become of
it.
He couldn't have slipped the file to
anybody. could he?" asked one.
mot very we'll; he was in too much
open, you know, and thought he was on
the road to happy land, said the
trusty.
Game pretty near gettin' on the road
to the happy hunting ground suggest
ed one of the guards.
''Mebee he hid IL while he was in the
corridor" added No. T311.
That amt likely. It was swept out
this mOrnin an nOtnin was found -
answered the most quiet one of the trio.
Finally they gave up the search.
Phil wondered, too. what had become
of the cOmb-fle that he had spent
months in making. 1t was work Of
art. He knew that If Bob had IL with
him they would discover its use; for
the thing had been used and therefore
the needles must protrude beyond the
rubber casing.
He hoped that Bob had hidden it In
his shoe. That was a fairly safe pl-ce
for so small an article. The crack be-
tween the two pieces Of sole leather
need not be large, and little soap
rubbed over the opening would conceal
it.
Meanwhile the bath trusty was called
away by a guard from the prison Office.
In in few minutes No. III return
ed. His face was set and he looked
ugly. Suddenly stepping over to the
day watch, he talked to him in low
tones for some time
In the meantime, Mike, Tommy and
Bradshaw had begun to exchange re
marks concerning the exc tement of the
night before.

$50 far, the Roosevelt hunting party.

tition OF its success on the Athi Plains,
and the Mau Hills, according TO in
formation brought today by a runner
from the Roosevelt camp.
No elephants have yet been killed, and
today's messenger declared that Colonel
Roosevelt was becoming impatient at
his failure to get a shot at an elephant.
The colonel has bagged another lion.
but the real honors of the Sotik hunt
have gone to Kermit, who killed the
largest and finest specimen of lion vet
encountered. Kermits lion was much
larger than the black-maned fellow that
Mr.. Roosevelt shot while on the Nc
MILAN ranch.
Game is plentiful in the Sotik country
and besides the two lions. the colonel
and Kermit have brought down three
CRATES, two cheetahs, two Glands. and
six topi.

follow the pace of the natives without

journey of the Roosevelt party to So
Tx entailed no hardships, not even IN
crossing the intervening desert, which
required two days. After quitting the
desert the game region was encounter

Phil did not have the heart to enter
into the discussion.
Funny how the fever gets into these
fellers that amt used 10 it. remarked
Bradshaw. Now, / suppose he taought
when he saw that door open that IL was
the only one in the whole prison"
Well, I've seen lote of old ones bolt
for the door, too volunteered Tommy
1T kinder gets on a feller's nerves. /
remember in Sing Sing. one time,
young Teller found his cell door open,
sneaked through, found the cell house

caught the turnkey sleepin', an got out.

Chop that noiser' the bath trusty
cut In.
The men looked out into the corridor
in surprise.
No. iii was standing there with the
Tel am about IT," said the trusty.
"On account Of what happened last
night explained the uniformed at
tendant, the captain has issued orders
that YOU don't talk till after dinner in
this place from now on, and you only
get an hour to talk in then.
How about the prison paper?' que
Tied Phil
That's stopped. Wen have the new
quarters ready before long, and the
captain thinks it best to have you fell
lows keep quiet until you get into cells
that you can't get out Of"
1t was a hard blow to the men, for
ali along they had had the privilege of
speech. It was worse to have the prison
paper stopped abruptly.
Phil noted with satisfaction that a
guard took No. MS watch that night
1t was a relief to be rid of the fiendish
little fellow.
and no news was heard of him. dis
NAL week of silence passed and the men
became ugly and restless
One day an abrupt order came that
brought relief to the four condemned
men. The order was for their exchange
to new quarters that night.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES

Sign5 of better times, like signs of spring, are to be seen on every hand This is particularly true in the money market. In Connecticut and ill fact all through New England, most of the loans now being made are at a five per cent rate of interest. Very soon it IS pre- dicted all loans will come down to the five per cent rate instead of six pel cent. Tn short, men acquainted with the money market say that the effects of the panic last year are about over. The prospects for the rest of this year are very bright.
 Every day loans are being made for real estate investments which iE- dicate that booming times are near at hand. With the increase in the demand for money the supply will be forwarded at the normal rate of five per cent.

GENERAL MILES INTERVIEW

General Nelson A. Miles, like many another person were he called upon to express his opinion of Roosevelt's ex- petition to Africa, has shown that he is not accurately informed as to purpose of the expedition. General Miles is quoted as saying: Il never could quite see why a man wants to shoot elephants, zebras, antelopes and other animals wilfully. I believe that a man who shoots an elephant must have a depraved mind. Elephants are so use ful to us, you know, for they are put to work at so many things. Why, shoot ing at an elephant is just like pouring shot into the side of farm barn. It is really too bad to kill them.'
 As matter of fact is it extremely un- like that the party will shoot any ele- plants or other especially large game.
 It is intended, if possible, to bag male and female of each of the species distinctive of Africa. The animals will be skinned, their bides cured and shipped together with such portions of their skeletons as may be necessary for properly mounting them to this country where they will be placed in the Smithsonian Institute at Wash ington. under the direction of which in stitution the expedition is being carried on. Newspapers and comic sheets have circulated widely distorted impression of the trip as having as it's primary pur- pose the slaughter of scores of African big game.

THOSE SPEED cRANkS

It is evident that the general assembly other states is determined to pass laws which will so regulate the speed limit of automobiles that the danger to life and property and the injury to highways, which have resulted from reckless and unrestrained driving of high power ma chimes will be properly regulated. While the citizen who does not own @ machine but who uses the highways ill other and certainly as legitimate ways is heartily in favor of the bills which are now be- fore the legislature there is a powerful and determined contingent represent ing automobile interests which is going ko fight the measures to the last ditch.
 It is well to remind automobile owners in this connection that at least 90 per cent of the owners of motor vehicles are accepted as being aw-abidlng citizens who intend at all times to observe the proprieties of the highway. They are ready to do and obey all reasonable rules and regulations which may be enacted to preserve the rights of all users of the highways, their own inclu led. They are intensely interested, perhaps more than any other class of users of the high ways, in the contraction and maintain ance of good roads. This being so, they feel outraged that highway lawmakers should proceed exactly as though they
 
 less than five per cent. of motor vehicle users who are guilty of violations of proper rules of conduct, and who disre- gard the proprieties of highway traffic.
 There is no reason why the 95 per cent. of automobile users above referred to as observing the laws at present should look with apprehension on the passage of those bills now before the legislature which are calculated solely to restrain the homicidal fool-hardiness of speed maniacs who at present. throw all regard for law and decencY to the winds and rush through villages and narrow coun- try roads as if they were the sole inhab- itants of this planet. It is fair to assume that the bills to be made laws by the legislature will ill no way effect either the comfort CT the pleasure of the 95 per cent. of automobile users who al ways have observed the proprieties and who will continue to do so. Meanwhile the headlong flight of the unfortunates afflicted by the speed mania will be abruptly abbreviated and equal rights to the highway will be secured to all.

TARIFF LOCAL ISSUE

Protests are being received from to- against the admission free of 150,000.- 900 cigars year from the Philippines, as is provided by the Payne bill. A number of experts interested ill the silk industry in this state have appeared be fore the Senate committee on finance to ask that the duties on silk be advanced very materially above those provided for by the Payne bill, which for the most part provides for the re-enactment of the Dingley rates The protest of the silk manufacturers was based on in formation that Japan will soon be com- petitor of the United States in the man ufacture of every character of silk goods for which raw material is now imported into the United States. It was many years-ago that General Hancock, then a Democratic nominee for president, said that the tariff is local issue. No one can read the Payne tariff bill and the re ports of the arguments made for and against it without being convinced that there is really something in this sugges- tion and that after all perhaps Hancock was right. In one section they want the duties higher on a product because they make it, aud in another they want them lower because they have to buy it, and so 1t goes. The lawmakers at Washington are every day becoming more thoroughly convinced that it is n0 simple matter to 90 readjust the prasen tariff rates as to best serve the interests of the country at large.

beginning to assume their normal atti- .tude again after the rupture caused by the panic of last year. Brokers and bankers say that the supply of money this year is just about equal to the de
 mand. Last year the demand for money by borrowers could not begin to be supplied. Most of the money loaned last year was loaned at a six per cent
 rate of interest, Canaan has always been ill line for all the prosperity going and with business generally picking uI we are pretty sure of getting our share

Few things bring more satisfaction than making tAe home and the village in which we live attractive, not only to ourselves but to those who may take away their lasting impression of the will lage from what they have been able to see by passing through our streets. It is generally conceded that Canaan has an enviable reputation as a village that presents many pleasures to the eye. This is the proper time of the year for every resident to cooperate in maintain ing this reputation. The snow has only just melted and ill many places the dirt and refuse that has accumulated during the winter is made disgustingly appar- ent. Unless it is removed it constitutes not only an offence to the eye but pos tive menace to health. Now is the pro- per time for the man with the rake to get busy and do things, and if he begins now to get his grounds into proper shape for the summer he will not only reap the benefits himself, but will also be set ting proper example for his next door neighbor to. follow. He may not, pro- bably will not, achieve thereby the pub licity enjoyed by the One and Original Muckraker, but he will have the COIL sciousness of having done we'll what lay nearest to hls hand to do, and his reward will, without a doubt, be just as great in the end.

Some interesting questions are raised in the tariff discussion and naturally enough they come home to great many and great variety of people. One para. graph in the bill turns upon the ques tion of whether or not 8 lemon is a nee essity. A good many have been handed lemons which they did not regard as necessary and upon which they would have been glad to have a protective tariff so high as to be prohibitive.

It made a name for itself last year as being an organization that stands for clean sport and for the "square deal" on every occasion. This is the policy which IS going to be continued during the present year. Between now and May II, when the season opens, the people of Canaan will be given an opportunity to show that they are prepared to support the local team.
