 'I feared it." he remarked, coolly. "He needs no more of these cold meals"
 Indeed, he did not. I found myself looking at man lying with upturned face, stone dead-a sight of horror; His hair was a foot long, and his beard, clotted red. covered his shirt.
 We must bury him." said the inn keeper, "and quickly, for the dawn is near"
 It never occurred to me to seek an excuse for this gross illegality.
 T knew 1t would come to this," re- marked the inn-keeper. 'I have pro vided for it.
 We carried the man down to the or- chard, where by rubbish heap lay a deep hole. I cannot call 1t by so de- cent a term as grave. We laid our fellow-man down there and covered him up, our spades sinking noiselessJ ly into the moist and gentle soil. So he still lies, unknown.
 Better" said the inn-keeper, Ito goj down with the ship than live on like that. Poor old Hsghenstein was not bad fellow, but once in his life he played the coward. We thought he went down with the ship But he had got among the steerage passengers and slipped into one of the first boots that put off. Among the steerage fclk he remained, talking his ancestral Po- fish, and assumingta dead mans name. He carried enough paper to book back to England, where he visited bis law yers, who recognized him, In spite of his disguise. The estate was managed, as you see, in his stepson's name. All the servants were dismissed. And the tenants"-he paused-"had good req son to prevent discoveries" '

 ''Poor woman!" I said, for involup- tarily I thought, as perhaps he did, of the wife and mother abandoned to her death.
 "She loved him." he answered, "and 1 loved her. That was why I buried him."
 His voice was steady, his hands calm; I never witnessed such self-con- trol. If suddenly it broke, what wou- der?

OPERATOR MAY BE INSANE
WRECK OCCURRED WHILE WO-
 MAN WAS ON DUTY.
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Inves- tigators Find Coincidence Which
 May Unfold Mystery.

Chicago, July 1S.-Investigators of the wreck on the Chicago. Burlington & Quincy railroad of the Denver Linn ited at Western Springs Sunday have discovered strange coincidence which may have a bearing on the probe. Mrs. F. A. Wilcox. signal operator at Western Springs, will be the most important witness at the in quest. Investigators have discovered that Mrs Fisk A. Wilcox, former telegraph operator, according to her testimony as shown in the records of the Cook county court, was employed as a station agent at Highwood, pos sibly Hollywood, near Western Springs. She was sent to the deten- tion hospital at Cunning as insane and was discharged after six months treatment. The woman held as in sane lived at Lagrange and had sep arated from her husband a former railroad employe.
 The signal operator at Western Springs lives at Lagrange. She has been separated from her husband, formerly a railroad employe and had been employed, she said for six years as a railroad station agent at Holly wood Station. near Western Springs.
 Mrs. Wilcox has been kept in se- clusicu since the railroad investiga- tion.
 The wreck at Western Springs oc- cured on the second night Mrs. Will COX was on duty. She worked one more night, but was not on duty last night.

After the Wreck

The old hall lay desolate-pitilessly deserted by man, woman and child. l had heard of it, for the story was known, but the sight of the demesne the drives obliterated, the lawns a jungle and the park empty of COW or sheep-led me to pull up the car and contemplate the wilderness that lay beyond the mouldering gates and the curtainless lodge.
 This then, was the Manor House that Hughenstein, of Philadelphia, bought for his bride, just before they sailed on that last tragic voyage on the Cosmic, in which both had per ished. No wonder that young Brook lyn, his stepson-fOr Mrs. Hughenstein was a widow when the millionaire married her-shuddered at residence therein. A haunted house for him, if ever there was one!
 At the inn I halted, ordered dinner and bed, for it was an ancient paneled hostelry with an attentive and thought full host.
 Strange wilderness up there," l re- marked, as he set down a liqueur.
 Yes, sir" he replied, they always ask questions about It."
 Who looks after it?" asked.
 Not a soul" he answered. That's the arrangement"
 Arrangement" said l." What do you mean by arrangement
 II. All the tenants round here-indeed, I myself-have full rent returned, cash for cash, so long as the manor house is undisturbed-'
 I had no thought of adventures when I put my boots outside the door couple of hours later. The impulse which led me into one came on the spur of the moment. The inn was si- lent. The landing, like an inside bal cony, commanded the hall door. The door was open-wide open-and the innkeeper, who seemed to be bach elor, was going forth carrying a bas- ket. He turned and confronted me. and I said to him:
 'T sir, am also a gentleman. Will you let me accompany you?"
 1 resumed the boots, for he waited, making no other reply to my ques-, ton. Then together we issued forth.
 Between gentlemen,' said he, there need be no reserve, but when the time comes beg that you will not intrude."
 We carried no light. He evidently needed none. The house lay like a great tomb.
 The great doors stood wide ajar. This surprised me, but the inn-keeper seemed to take it as a matter of course. He led the way noiselessly up the cavernous stairs to a room, where he paused, The door was again open, dim, fiickering light throwing shadows that wavered above heavy screen. My companion motioned me to stop. l waited while he went for

POLICE SCANDAL IS BACK OF GOTHAM'S LATEST MYS-
 FERROUS MURDER.
WAS LURED TO HIS DEATH
Information Furnished District Attor~ ney About Gambling Is Be lieved to Have Been
 Cause of Deed.

New York, July 17.-Herman Ro- senthal, wealthy gambler, who maintained a palatial home at IA West Forty-ninth street, was assassi mated in front of the Hotel Metropole, in West Firty-third street. Four men who escaped from the scene in a slate-colored touring ear fired the shots which killed the wealthy gam bier in the very heart of New York's white-light district.
 A chauffeur was arrested. The pc lice declared Libbey, the man arrest ed, was not only the man at the steer ing wheel of the motor in which the murderers fled, but also one of the men who fired the shots. Libbey was locked up, charged with homicide,
 The assassination of Rosenthal fol lowed revelations which he had made to District Attorney Whitman of a full scale of prices charged by the police for the operation of all kinds of gambling in New York. Rosenthal had further charged that Charles Brecker, a police lieutenant in charge of what is generally known as the strong arm" squad, was a partner with Rosenthal in the conduct of his gambling house. District Attorney Whitman had summoned ten police men and two lawyers to appear before the grand jury and testify concerning the charges.
 Believed a Ruse.
 According to witnesses, one Of the men who was in the automobile when Rosenthal was shot wore a police mans uniform. This is believed to have been ruse to attach suspicion to the police.
 lust as Rosenthal reached the side walk a touring car which had been standing on the other street, crossed over and the occupants fired the fatal shots.
 The prompt finding of the automo- bile which was used for the murder was due to the fact that several per sons read the number, "41l3S N. f', on the plate as it stood in the full glare of the electric light in front ot the hotel. The police, after finding Iibbey's name in the records as the owner. learned that the car was kept in a Madison square garage. This garage was the same used to house the taxicab which figured In the s25 900 bank messenger robbery sev- eral months ago. Libbey was soon found. He admitted he had the car out early in the evening, but denied having any part in the murder De- spite his protestations the ponce locked him up and declared his identl- fcation as the chauffeur in the case had been made clear.

FROM ANOTHER OLD LINE POP.

Dear Sir: Didn't know but that
a line from another old line Pop"
might encourage you yet a little
more, though it does seem every
thing is coming your way. Did you
know that those that followed you
in the 90's love to see our cause advo-
Gated by those that thought us so
cranky then?
Yes, we admired you then, and
still love you and the cause you
espoused-worked there for Mr..
Common Man, and at it yet-still
loyal, Though rs years ahead of
your day--or we're at the time you
began the fight for the cause of JUS
tice and righteousness. Equal
rights.
That sounds good yet.
Well sir, some time ago, when I
saw Tedd's reoprted address to catch
Rube, "The People Rule" it tickled
my innards so to speak. 1 thought
Of you and decided l would write you
then, and persuade you, to let up
some, and not to worry so much
Yes, know the politicians stole your
goods-but be quiet please-since
they have come to your rescue, and
really want to give the dear people,
some of your old y duds; claiming
them Simon pure-at least one yard

awful funny to you, but you know

The Guardians Of Lib
erty Are What the
Name Implies

- EAR SIR: The beginning Of a
I'M thing right, to me, is half the
IEB battle. I have just read in
The Atlanta Constitution an
article in reference to the society of
Guardians Of Liberty and it is
responsible for this letter. | am so
anxious for the complete success Of
this society that do not want any
mistake made-especiall right in
it's birth. If it's real purpose is con-
cealed and misrepresented before the
world just at this time, then every
thing will be lost and the glorious
patriotic cause will be failure. Now
ii the real purpose has not been con-
cealed and misrepresented in The
Constitution article, then I am badly
deceived. This is true Of other
=. ners as we'll, that have said any
thing about it. If I understand the
purpose Of the Guardians Of Lib
erty' as an organization, is to
denounce, oppose and fight the
Catholic Hierarchy from O political
standpoint, and not from religious.
The Constitution Of the United States
grants to every man the right to the
religion Of his choice. From q politi-
cal standpoint the Catholic religion
has as much right to exist and flour
1sh IN this country as any Protestant
denomination. And no political
movement should be organized to rob
them of it. 1t would be an awful
mistake if the Guardians of Lib

erty," as society, should in any
way, attempt to interfere or abridge
the religious rights of Catholics But
it is fact that the Catholic HER
archy is not only a religious organiza-
ton, but a political organization as
well. Now this last feature is the
only thing that the guardians of
Liberty" as an organization, should
denounce and oppose. It should cry
down, fight against and ridicule the
Hierarchy in its meddling with gov
ernmental affairs. Of course men,
bers of the "Guardians of Liberty"
as individuals, may oppose the relig-
ious Of Catholics, but the Society, as
such, must not do SO. Why? Because
this Society was organized for the
purpose Of maintaining political free
dom, and religious freedom for ALL
The newspapers have misrepre-
sented the Guardians of Liberty in
two respects. 1 In making it
appear that the G.. Of t. is opposing
the Catholics in their religion. z.
In making it appear that the G.. of L.
is opposing the Catholic church as a
church. The first is absolutely false.
The second fails to make the impor-
tant distinction between the church
composed Of laymen and the Catho-
lie Hierarchy. The "Guardians Of
Liberty is making its fight against
the Catholic Hierarchy Roman
Priesthood. Here lies the great
danger to our political freedom.
These two points should be empIla-
sized and made perfectly plain to all
the people of the United States, and
allow nobody to falsify them, thus
doing SO much harm to the cause.
Now Mr.. Watson, while the iron is
hot, and all the papers are saying
something about the G. of L., you
should claim unfair treatment and
Misrepresentation through the
papers, not only Of the real purpose
of the G. Of L., but also Of yourself,
and rush into their columns with a
red hot correct statement of the true
purpose. Nobody can do this so we'll
as yourself. This is the oportune
time! Don't let it pass.
Now Mr.. Watson, this is a personal
letter-not intended for your paper,
but Of course, I would not object if
you see fit to publish it. If you
approve of the position herein set
forth, or if you do not, [ would
appreciate a word or two from you. I
want to know.
I cannot tell you how much I am
enjoying your writings. They are
simply immense! May God bless you
and your efforts.
Yours truly,
ROBERT MILLER.
