An hour later Pegloes black boy presented himself to the judge. He came bearing a gift, and the gift ap- propriately enough was a square case bottle Of respectable size The judge was greatly touched by this attention. but he began by making a most tenn perate Use Of the tavern-keeper's of fering; then as the formidable docu- ment he was preparing took shape an- der his hand he more and more lost that feeling of Spartan foTtitude which had at first sustained him in the presence Of temptation. He wrote and slipped In complete and quiet tux ury, and when at last he had exhaust ed the contents of the bottle 1t oc- cured to him that 1t would be only proper personally to convey his thanks to Pegloe. Perhaps he was not un- inspired in this by ulterior hopes; 1T so, they We're richly rewarded. The resources of the City Tavern were suddenly placed at his disposal. He attributed this to variety of causes all good and sufficient. but the real AUooOi ACNci pu66cSlcu itScil, 1t was of such pertidious nature that the judge, open and generous minded. could not have grasped 1t.
 By six o'clock he was undenia bly, drunk; at eight he was sounding still deeper depths of inebriety. with only the most confused memory Of impend- ing events; at ten he collapsed and was borne upstairs by Pegloe and his black boy to remote chamber in the kitchen wing.

COAL IS
RECEIVED
AT NUM-
JUST IN TIME TO GET READY
FOR BIG STORM AMATEUR
PHIIAANTHROPISTS GOT MIX
ED SOMEWHAT ON PRICES

Just in time to provide warmth
for dozens of homesteader families
in the northeastern part of the
county, the second car of coal sent
to them by the Philharmonic or
cchestra has arrived. 1t reached
Nunn last Saturday and Monday
the unloading began. Some OF the
people who needed it came % miles
through the snow, which is about
the best evidence there is that the
gift is appreciated.
But is was not all plain sailing
with the orchestra in its efforts to
relieve what distress it could.
The first car was donated by the
Minnequa Coal company and the
freight was free through the court
esy of the Union Pacific. But the
second car was paid for from the
proceeds of the benefit concert Civ
en- by the orchestra at the Sterling
theater two weeks ago.
The net proceeds of the concert
were $ll3.50. At the prices quot
ed it was expected that this would
be enough to pay for 40 ton car
of mine run coal delivered at Num-.
Through a mistake the company
4 sent so "a ton car. And another
] mistake came up WUeu lHe iIeiSH-
bill came 1t was found that the
rate had been understood to be 20
/ cents ton lower than it was.
/ Hence, instead of the total obliga-
! ton of the orchestra being about
the amount realized from the bene-
lit concert it is about s25 more.
A portion of this deficit was made
up by the Tribune, which donated
sl5 toward the fund out of the
proceeds of the Bryan lecture. Other
profits from the lecture went to
make up the deficit on the perform
ance of The Piper last fall for the
skating pond at Glenmere. The Or
chestra is still behind about $40.
]. Smith Johnson. through whom
the coal was ordered, offered to
stand this loss due to the mistake in
the rate quoted but the orchestra
at the meeting last night voted to
paw Mr.. Johnson in full and to try
to make up this sum in some other
way.
heports from Num- indicate that
the % tons can be used to advan-
tage and the total of so tons sent
will be enough to make comfort
able for the rest of the winter those
in actual need, so that the amateur
uhilanthropists are well satisfied in
accomplishing what they have.
