CHAPTER XXI.
The Call,

Beyond receiving reports from Ken
nedy and Banks, who in the interval
rode into town ard rode out again on
their separate and silent ways, Whis-
pering Smith for two days seemed to
do nothing. Yet instinct keener than
silence kept the people of Medicine
Bend on edge during those two days,
and when President Bucks car came
in on the evening of the second day,
the town knew from current rumors
that Banks had gone to the French
man ranch with warrant on a seri-
Gus charge for Sinclair. In the presi-
dents car Bucks and McCloud, after
a late dinner, were joined by Whisper
ing Smith, and the president heard
the first connected story of the events
OF the fortnight that had passed.
Bucks made no comment until he had
heard everything. and they rode
Sinclair's horses" he said in con-
clusion.
"Sinclairs horses" returned Wits
pering Smith, "and they are all &C.
counted for. One horse supplied by
Rebstock was shot where they crossed
Stampede creek. It had given out and
they had fresh horse in the willows,
for they shot the scrub half a mile up
one Of the canyons near the crossing.
The magpies attracted my attention
to 1t. A piece Of skin foot square
had been cut out Of the flank"
You got there before the birds"
1T was about. N even thing" said

let them keep in the clear. l heard
tonight that Du Sang is killed. Do
you know whether it is true%
1T is true"
An oath half escaping showed how
the confirmation cut him. "And Whis-
pering Smith got away! 1t is Du
Sangs own fault; l told him to keep
out of that trap. l stay in the open;
and I'm not Du Sang. I'll choose my
own ground for the finish when they
want it with me, and when l 90 I'll
take company-I'll promise you that.
Goodnight, Marion. Will you shake
hands,"
NO"
Damn it, like your grit, girl!
Well, goodnight, anyway"
She closed the door. She had even
strength enough to bolt it before his
footsteps died away. She put out the
light and felt her way blindly back to
the wOrkroom. She staggered through
it. clutching at the curtains, and fell
in the darkness into Dicksies arms.
Marion, dear, don't speak," Dicksie
whispered. 81 heard everything. Oh,
Maricn!' she cried, suddenly con-
Scious Of the inertness Of the burden
In her arms. "Oh, what shall l do?"
Moved by fright to her utmost
strength, Dicksie drew the uncon.
sciouS woman back to her room and
managed to lay her on the bed. Mari.
on opened her eyes a few minutes
later to see the lights burning, to hear
the telephone bell ringing, and to find
Dicksie on the edge Of the bed beside
her.
"Oh, Marion, thank heaven, you are
reviving! l have been frightened to
death. Don't mind the telephone; it
Is Mr.. McCloud. I didn't know what
to do, so l telephoned him."
But you had better answer him"
said Marion, family. The telephone
bell was ringing wildly.
"Oh, no! he can wait. How are you,
dear? l don't wonder you were fright.

Dicksie, do answer the telephone
What are you thinking of? Mr.
McCloud will be at the door in five
minutes. Do you want him in the
street tonight"
Dicksie fled to the telephone, and
an excited conference over the wire
closed in seeming reinsurance at both
ends. By that time Marion had re-
gained her steadiness, but she could
not talk of what had passed. At times
!. as the two lay together in the dark
ness, Marion spoke, but it was not to
be answered. Il do not know" she
murmured once YEARLY. Perhaps

BOY WILL END COLLEGE TERM
AT AGE OF FOURTEEN.
Norbert Wiener, Son OF Cambridge
Professor, to Graduate from
Tufts In June-Also Good
in Athletics.
Photo by waldon tawce,t.

Boston.--At Tufts college a boy will
graduate next June at the age of IA,
and we will have to take off our
mortar board caps to him. He is
Norbert Wiener, the son of Harvard
professor This remarkable boy was
born in Columbia. Mo, November 26,
1894. He could repeat the alphabet
at the age of IL months, could read
and write at three years, and at the
age of eight he was fitted for college
In mathematics, philosophy modern
languages and the sciences.
1t required less than three years
Of schooling after donning short trou,
sers for him to prepare for college.
Boys seldom do this in less than ten
or III years; usually 1t requires an
even dozen, and often longer.
When Norbert Wiener entered Tufts
In the autumn of 1906 he bad gone
farther in chemistry and philosophy
than the average senior. He was re-
quired TO take several entrance ex-
aminations, mathematics among them,
in which he was found to be far in ad-
vance of the freshman class.
So as a freshman he did upper.
class work in the theory of equations
and in determinants, while in philoso-
phy II was found necessary to place
him in n class by himself He had
read Spencer, Haeckel, Darwin, Hux-
ley and many others. Now he has
read Locke. Hobbies and other Eng.
lish philosophers; he has translated
Homer and several plays of Aesch' lus,
as well as similar amount If Latin.
In mathematics he has delved into
the Galois theory of equations and has
completed differential and integral cal
culus. He will continue this branch
this year and will study the philosoph-
les of Leibnitz. Spinoza and Kant.
In Greek he will read Herodotus and
Sophocles; the rest of his time will be
taken up by biology and organic chem
istry. In June, 1909, he will have com
pleted the regular four-year course in
three years, receiving the degree of
bachelor of arts before he has reached
the age of 10. But the work he has
covered will equal the amount usually
completed by a candidate for the de.
gree OF doctor of philosophy.
In the autumn following his gradua.
tion at Tufts college he will enter the
Harvard Graduate school, where he

he will spend two or three years in
Germany or France, devoting himself
to philosophy or science.
That is, at an age when the average
boy has still two years of work ahead
of him for his bachelors degree young
Wiener will be doing advanced scien-
tiflc work among the gray-haired
savants of German university.
Prof Leo Wiener of the department
of Slavic languages at Harvard is of
Russian parentage; the boys mother
is native of Missouri. The other
children of the family do not differ
from other boys and girls of their age
Apart from the fact that his capac-
ity for learning is phenomenal, Nor
bert Wiener is like other boys. His
physical development is excellent: he
Is good tennis player and an expert
swimmer. He is tall boy and a
strict vegetarian. His head is normal
in size, but his blazing. black eyes are
almost uncanny in their power. Per.
sonally he chooses mathematics as his
favorite study. Philosophy he calls
his "fairyland."

THEY GROW TALL IN MONTANA.
Combined Height of Ten Members Of

has arisen between two Montana
towns as to which possesses the tall
est family. Libby, in Flathead coun.
ty, processes to have more tall people
than any town of it's size on the con.
tinent.
Ten members of one family have a
combined height of almost sixty feet,
The father weighs 215 pounds and Is
six feet 21s inches tall. The mother
weighs 225 pounds and is five feet six
inches tall. The children size up as
follows: First son, six feet 21s inches
tall, age 21 years; second son, six

age 16 years; fourth son. five feet ten
inches, age IA years; fifth son, five

four feet two inches, age nine years;
sixth son, three feet ten inches, age
four years The head of this proud
family Is Herman Bockman

Porto Riean Journal Has High Idea Of
Morgan's Taste.

Baltimore. Md.--Now that Porto
Rico is part of the United States, 1t
behooves the Porto Ricans to take
heightened interest fin that most curl
Gus of North American products-the
multi-millionaire. And they are doing
so. judging from an item which APP
peared in newspaper of San Juan
about j. Pierpont Morgan, which may
or may not be known to readers of
more northerly latitudes. Here 1t is:
The Holsters destined for the ex-
alted palate of Mr.. Morgan are caught
expressly for him, and for nobody else;
they do not belong to that vulgar class
of fish which everybody can acquire at
the market by simply putting down
the price asked. The American multi
millionaire has had built on the shores
of the ocean a little hut, painted red.
In this hut a lobster fisher lives all
the year round. His job is an easy one,
because Mr.. Morgan's craving for the
delicious crustaceans comes upon him
very seldom-not more than three or
four times year.
THE lobster fisherman above men.
toned draws a salary of $4,000 yearly.
Supposing that the American potentate
eats Holsters four times a year, the
cost of his Holsters comes to $500
catch.
Thus the greatest of milllonaires
has introduced once again the gas.
tronomic customs of the ancient
Romans. The Romans liked lampreys,
just as Mr.. Morgan likes Holsters. In
order to feed the lampreys properly
and be enabled to eat them in season
they kept them in tanks at enormous
expense. Some historians go so far
as to say that the said Romans, in or
der that their fish might have sue.
culent taste, were in the habit of Civ.
ing them live slayes to eat.
But the American multi-millionaire
has not as yet thought of treating his
Holsters to meal composed of red.

THEY CAUGHT THE GOOSE.
Des Molnes Bridge Workers Have an
Exciting Chase.

Des Moines. Ia.-Workmen on the
new Locust street bridge were treated
TO thrill which would set the gal
lery wild with excitement if utilized
as the climax to a ten-twenty-thirty
medodrama, and in the end captured
a mammoth goose, which would af-
ford substantial basis for charity
dinner.
About $3.50 o'clock in the morning a
large gray goose was sighted off the
starboard quarter of the new bridge
by one OF the workmen, and the alarm
was given. The bird was steering due
north, all sails set, in the teeth OF a
spanking breeze A rowboat was
quickly manned and the men set out
to intercept the strange craft. When
the boat became visible to the goose
1t tackled and started down the river
at full speed, but all it's efforts were
in vain. and 1t was captured just under
the Walnut street bridge, where a
large crowd had gathered, encourag-
ing the flight of the fowl with lusty
shouts.
The question over the distribution
of the one bird among the half a
hundred workmen has not yet been
settled.

Wants to Fumiaate a Cow.

Cincinnati.-Dr, b. F. Lyle, physi.
clan at the branch hospital, has an.
nounced that he was open for sugges-
tions on how to fumigate a cow"
Robert Armstrong, living opposite
the pesthouse, claims that GONZALES
cling pesthouse patients swiped his
cow, and he won't take it back until
1t is fumigated They offered him so
cents rent for the COW, but he spurned
it because he was afraid of that half
dollar.
Many methods of fumigation have
been suggested to DR.. Lyle, but each
has had its own disadvantages. The
city service, to which the complaint
was made, left II to DR.. Lyle with
power TO act, and he feels responsible
for the methods as well as the results.

Discovers Paleolithic Stone

1t is Prof Wright's belief that at
one time the site of Wadsworth was
covered with large glacier which
was mile high and extended to Mil
lersburg. The paleolithic stone found
near Wadsworih is an elipticalshaped
flint stone weighing about a half or
threequarters Of pound and is a
fine specimen of one of the instru-
ments used by man In The glacial Pc
riod.
