 IL had been a strange year for Jim Collins. He did not care to look back over thc past twelve months. It was enough for him that during the period he had dropped from his pinnacle Of honest labor to be the pitiful slave Of a habit. A red lamp glowed down at the corner by Uhlman's bakery-at the entrance to the alley that rau around 10 the back door As Jim went to ward It the saloons along the avenue were closing up, doors swung open and discharged ouarrelsome groups of men. who scattered up and down the pavement. some of them making the midnight hideous with their rauCous voices.
 Jm Collins passed them and went on to the entrance 10 the alley Here be 'oined a line of men which was si- Ienuy forming in the dim aIley-dcre- Hcts from the city's troubled sens who were waiting for the nightly dole or bread when H0nS OnlUah EaNe lo his poorer neighbors after the exam pIe of a greater phnanthroplst farther uptown.
 Down at the entrance, near the red Ucht, Jim Collins slowly followed the shortening line. He was impatient Of the delay, for he was anxious Co re celve his bread and seek a certain bench in the square near by, where a maple tree formed an excellent shelter in moderate rain IT he was delayed much longer the much to be desired bench would be prc-empted by some other outc8St of the night

with a statutory o~ffense, Luther Wa
Plotner and Mrs. Kate Quinn were
brought back to Mitchell last night by
Sheriff Berry, who located the pair
at Omaha, where Plotner has some
relatives. When the Omaha passenger
arrived there was a crowd OF about
400 men and women on the platform
eager to get a glimpse of the couple
The woman was heavily yelled.
There was no sympathy In the
crowd for them, judged by the jeers
that greeted them when they stepped
from the train and walked to the
waiting carriage. Cries of Rotten
egg them,'' Get a rope and other
expressions were freely expressed, but
there was nc demonstration made to
carry any Of the threats into execution.
The sheriff and party proceeded to
the county Jail and the great crowd
followed, after being augmented by
several hundred more as they p
preached the business district. Over
500 people We're OF the lawn OF the

j Instead of locking the prisoners up
at once the sheriff got an automobile
and drove around the city, waiting ior
the crowd to leave the vicinity of the
Jail. As the crowd would not disperses,
and to avoid any possible demonstra-
ton, Sheriff Berry took his prisoners
to another town and kept them over
night. The Whereabouts OF the party
was kept a secret n the sheriff and
his charges have not returned to the
city as yet.
Last Saturday Mrs. L. w. Plotner
committed suicide, following an inter
view with her husband, their relations
having been strained for some times
owing to his actions. In the evening

on learning of this Plotner got the
Quinn woman and left the city on the
midnight train.
