be by his own exertions-and H. could
accomplish this only out yonder, free

He lifted his head, every nerve tin
Cling with desperate determination.
The low growl of voices. was audible
through the partition. but there was
no other sound. Carson City was still
resting, and there would be no crowd
nor excitement until much later. Not
until nightfall would any attack be at
tempted; he had six or eight hours yet
in which to perfect his plans. He
ran his eyes about the room searching
for some spot of weakness. 1t was
dark back of the bench. and he turned
in that direction. Leaning over, he
looked down on the figure OF man
curled up. sound asleep on the floor.
The fellows limbs twitched as If In a
dream, otherwise he might have deem
ed him dead. as his face wes buried
In his arms. A moment Keith hesi-
tated; then he reached down and
shook the sleeper. until he aroused
sufficiently to look up. 1t was the
face of a coal-black negro. An in
slant the fellow stared at the man
towering over him. his thick lips part
ed his eyes full of sudden terror.

LADY Is HEAVY CONSUMER
She Is Supported by the Toll Of 9th
ers, Who AcquIesee Cheerfully to
the Condition.

Economically the lady Is supported
by the toll of others. but while this Is
equally true of other classes OF soci-
ETY., the oddity of her case consists OF
the acquescence of those most con-
cerned. The lady herself feels no un-
easiness in her eQuivocal situation.
and the toilers who support her do
so with enthusiasm She is not pro-
ducer; in most communities produc-
tive labor Is by consent unladyl1ke.
On the other hand, she is the heaviest
of consumers.
The women of the working classes
have been saved by their work itself.
In the shop and the factory they have
learned what the nursery can teach.
But the lady has had no social train
ing whatever; the noticeable weak
ness of her play at bridge Is tend
ency to work for her own hand. As
the gentleman decays, the lady sur
wives as the strongest evidence OF his
former predominance. Where he set
her, there she stays. One after an
other the fabrics that supported her
have tottered, but she remains, adapt
ing herself to each new set Of circum-
stances as it arises. 1t Is possible that
an advancing social sentiment will ex-
tinguish her altogether. but she can
never be forgotten.

I'VE are in much the same position.
Neb, and the fate of one is liable to
be the fate of both. This is my story"
and briefly as possible, he ran over
the circumstances which had brought
him there, putting the situation clear
enough for the negros understand
ing, without wasting any time upon
detail. Neb followed his recital with
bulging eyes, and an occasional excla-
nation. At the end he burst forth:
"Yo' say dar was two OBJ dem white

whom you came here from Indepen-
dence?"
Neb nodded. overcome by the dis
covery.
But what caused them to run such
a risk?" Keith insisted Didn't they
know the Indians were on the war
path!"
"Sho'; l heard 'em talkin' bout dat,

of slaves back of them, the lowering
of the coffin. and the hollow sound of
earth falling on the box: and Neb. his

exclaimed, eagerly, but that's all

The negro hitched up onto the
bench, the whites of his eyes conspic-

had short. squajty figure, with ex-
cessively broad shoulders. and a face
of intense good humor.

A VINDICTlVE KNIFE.
The Weapon That Tried Several Times
to Kill kipIina.

The Weapon That Tried Several Times
to Kill kipling.
My mind has flown back down the
years to London and into the large
liers street, Embankment Gardens. On
the wall fronting the Thames hangs
the most vicious looking knife l have
ever seen. 1t is serpentine in shape,
and its downward point is as sharp as
q needle.
"What villainous weapon!" said.
"Yes," replied Kiplng, and | forgot
the name he gave it or the section of
India from which II came. THAT
knife has tried to kill me several
times. It's always on the watch.
When got II there was affixed to 1t,
like a button on a foil, one joint of
mans backbone. The knife had been
run into the vertebrae, given savage
twist and brought away with 1t piece
of human framework"
AS he spoke he approached the gilt
tering, snakelike knife.
Don't touch it," | cried You
ought to keep 1t in locked box"
He didn't touch it, so far as saw,
but as he raised his hand the knife
dropped like a plummet and stood
quivering in the floor within an inch
of his boot.
Look at thatr' he said and stood
there without moving a muscle until |
saw how nearly the sinister blade had
come to impaling his foot. = Robert

TAKES HIS LIFE on NEWYEAR
York Young Man Shoots Himself In
Wife's Presence.

York, Pa, Jan. S.-Harry Sllurbauer,
aged "a, remarked to his wife that he
supposed she would feel better salts
fled if he would end his life at the be-
ginning of the new year. He pointed a
revolver at his head, fred and died a
few minutes afterward.
1t is said that Shurbauer had heard
his wife complain to her sister, Mrs.
Mary Miller of Lewisberry, that she
was being ill-treated by her husband.
This caused him, it is said, to go TO his
room and obtain the revolver, firing
one shot to attract his wife's atten
tion and then sending second bull
let into his head after telling her why
he intended to become suicide.
