nodding her head, as If the words
only confirmed some earlier knowl-
edge of the threat they contained.
Then she lifted her head, and her eyes
were bright with mirth as Ardmore's
wondering gaze met them.
Did you get the jug?"
Il got two jugs, to tell the truth;
but when they seemed dissatisfied and
howled for me to give one back,

You threw back fathers butter

Miss Jerry Dangerfeld sat down
and laughed; and Ardmore, glad of an
opportunity to escape, found his hat
and rushed from the house.

and he had forgotten luncheon in his
absorption. There was no manner of
use in recurring again to that episode
of the lonely siding. He had found
the irl-(indubitably the girD-but

was not the winking sort; he was we'll
satisfied on that point. and SO thor
oughly ashamed into the bargain that
he resolved to lead different life
and be very heedful of the cry of the
poor in the future.
AS he sat dejectedly on his park
bench he was unaware that Miss Ger.
aldine Dangerfield, walking hurriedly
through the park on her way from the
governors mansion to the statehouse,
passed directly behind him. His atti-
tude was so eloquent of despair that
it could not have failed to move a
much harder heart than that of Miss
Dangertield, yet she made no sign;
but few minutes later the private
secretary came out on the steps of
the statehouse, and after brief sur
vey of the landscape crossed the lawn
and called Ardmore by name.

Certainly not. Miss Dangerfeld

mass of papers before her, Miss Ger
aldine Dangerfield awaited him. He
was ready to place his head on the
block in sheer contrition for his con

Il told the Appleweight gang that
they were a lot of towards, and that
the governor will have them all in

A gentleman who seemed to be one
of them called on me this morning,
demanding the jug: and If he's the
man think he is. he's stolen the little
brown jug from my room in the hotel
by this time"
Miss Dangerfield had picked up a
spool of red tape and was unwinding
it. They were such nice little hands,
and SO peaceful in their aimless
trif1ing with the tape that he was
sure his eyes had betrayed him into
imagining she had clenched them in the
quiet drawing-room at the mansion.

was not overheard.

or probably tomorrow night, or the
night afterward I'm not sure well
wait next Christmas dinner for papa :
But of course you know where he

stared In astonishment into Miss Dan

officer Fraley went to the Robles house and found the man and woman together. They had each evidently been drinking. The man claimed to be a cousin of Ramona Robles and said he was there upon visit to extend sympathy to her in a recent bereavc- ment. As there was not sufficient evil dence to support a charge against the man, he was allowed to go. The Roblcs woman was locked up until evening and was then allowed to go upon promising to appear before Judge Thomas this afternoon.
 An offer had been received some days ago from a man who said he would give Ramona Robles and her children home in the southern part of the territory if she would mend her ways. This message, it seems. never reached the woman. the officer to which it was intrusted having been taken ill soon after. and the letter aft erwards having become mislaid.

RAMONA ROBLES IN HE
 HANDS OF POLICE AGAIN
Is Arrested at Her Hcmc in Company With Man Who Claims Rcla-
 tionship.

Ramona Roblcs is in trouble again. She was arrested again yesterday aft ernoon after having kept free of the tolls of the laV for period of about three weeks Upon the occasion of her last appearance before Judge Thomas she was given talk that would have turned a heart of stone. but she seems to have profited little by the kindly advice of tine judge. Without thoughts of the future or of what her actions will mean to her growing little ones she has apparently again strayed into the bypaths of vice.
 The troubles of yesterday started when two women appeared before Judge Thomasj and asked that the husband of one of the women be ar rested. It was explained that the man was spending his time at the house of the Robles woman and neglccting his family It was also charged that the man and the ROhles woman were at that time lying in the Robles house in an intoxicated condition.

HORSE THROWS INDIAN
 AND IS ABANDONED
Redskin Has No Use For Pony Who
 Unseats Him Publicly.

\ peaceful looking Indian mounted upon a peaceful looking pony was passing the Pioneer livery yesterday afternoon. There was nothing to dis tinguish pony or rider from dozens of otehrs who pass the same way daily But the pony took fright at something and before the Indian was aware had thrown him heavily to the ground.
 Those in the livery expected to sec the Indian catch the pony again and ride off. but were amazed when they saw the Indian start along the street without paying further attention to the animal. one of the men caught up with the Indian and asked him if he was not forgetting his pony.
 "Um no good pony. Um buck In dian off. Indian ride um no more.'' And no amount of argument would change the Indian from his determina- ton.
 The man from the livery called up City Marshal Moore and asked him what he should do with the pony He was advised that in the absence of evidence to show that the pony had been stolen it seemed that he was about as much entitled to the property as any other person. So the man from the livery seems to be ahead one good Indian pony.
