Five years later Sheldon McAllister,
on his semiannUal trip west was de-

the night before his departure ne found
himself standing in the middle OF lis

family pcrfumed note he held.
In the past five years he had avoid.

gradually let their friendship cool he

This. to be sure, was an exceptional

found it he entered.

RULING ON RIGHTS
OF RY. MAIL CLERKS
Illinois Supreme Court Holds They
Are Entitled to Same Protection
as Passengers.

Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 16.-That men
In the employ Of the government mail
service have the same rights upon rail-
road trains as other passengers and
that railroad companies are bound to
exercise the same care as to their pro-
lection from injury as regular passen-
gers, but holding that a mail clerk is
not to be considered technically as a
passenger, the supreme court yester-
day handed down an opinion in the
case Of w. Z. Barker against the Chi
cago. Peoria & st. Louis Railway COM
pany.
Barker, a mail clerk, received in
juries in a collision and sued the com
pany for $4,000. The case was tried
in the Sangamon county circuit court,
where the railroad company set up
the defense that a mail carrier was
not a passenger and was not entitled
to recover.
Judge Creighton held that a mail
clerk was a passenger, and jury gave
a verdict in the sum of $4,000, on
which Judgment was later rendered
for the sum of $4,000. The supreme
court upholds the lower court.

The Breach Widens.

From Washington come reports that
President Taft has been induced to
ienlist in the war against the insur-
agents in his party and that patronage
may be refused to Senator La Toilette
and to others who persist in their re-
q volt against Aldrich in the senate and
Cannon in the house.
.y7 The president is a peaceful man by
nature He dislikes bTawls, which was
urged in his behalf when he was a
q, candidate. It was said that he would
be a master hand at restoring that
; Harmony in the party that had result
ed from it's rather bumpy encounter
with Teddy. the terrible. No doubt
the president desired to do this. as
was expected of him. It is a perverse
fate. however, that often plays tricks
with men.
AS a matter Of fact. the republican
! majority of the middle west is in SYM
pathy with the insurgents and not
with the standpatters. Although he

would be to stir up a row in his party

for Sadie had not entered a cross bill,
as he had feared she would. In fact,
she had not even appeared in court at
all.
He had really dreaded it, feeling so
uncertain about the result, for he
knew very well that she had had the
best of reasons for deserving him
after she had discovered that little
affair of his. How we'll he remem-
bered it all-how she had taken Lad
die and gone back to her fathers
and how strangely lonesome the house
had seemed till he had concluded to
go on the road for that New York
