Pulling Off A Job
By Claudine Sisson

Copyright. ro1r. by Associated Literary Press)
 In front of the Bennett house, with Miss Nellie Bennett looking out Of one of the parlor windows on the highway the horse and coulter being driven by a stranger met with dis- aster. The left-hand runner of the cuttes struck an icy lump and was lifted up until the cutter was upset. The driver was pitched out into the snow, but hung to the lines ana stopped the horse after being dragged couple of rods.
 Miss Nellie neither screamed nor tainted away. She saw the man get up. right the cutter and drive away, and that was all there was to it-for the moment. Her eye caught some thing fluttering after he had disap- peared, and she walked out ana picked up a handkerchief. Close to II lay a letter. These things had been dragged from his pockets. The hand kerchief gave her no clue to the mans identity, but the superscrlptioh on the envelope was in business hand and read:
 MT Joseph Gale, Ferndale."
 Ferndale was a country postoff1ce a mile away. The letter was post marked from the city. and had just been received As the Bennetts, mother and daughter and brother Jack. had lately moved into the neighborhood, they had heard of no Gales. The letter inclosed was very brief. It read:
 Dear Joe-Yours at hand. Will be down Wednesday evening to heip pull of the job. Will be bloody affair. but I guess we can manage It all right Frank"
 "Tt must refer to a contempiated murder" said the mother, when sne had been shown the letter.
 Why. of course 1t does,' replied Miss Nelly. If a 'bloody ahaii doesn't mean cutting some one throat, what can 1t mean?
 If Jack were here he could tell us."
 Yes. but he won't be back rom Buffalo until Friday. Mother. here is a matter that must be seen to al once. Murder has been planned ana it may be our murder. Provioehce has put clue into our nanos. There's a constable living in that req house a mile down the road. ana m going down there"
 But I may be murdered while you are gone,"
 This letter says Wednesday nlsn'' Murders never come on before .he date set. Say, I won't have to go al all There's the constable coming up the road now. Jack told him to keep an eye out for us. He'll be right oh to the case in no time
 When the constable had entered the house he got the story and the clue, and he patted the girl on the back and chuekled:
 We have got em dead to rlgnes at the very first go-offl It's my laea that they mean to murder old Shep-

hard, the miser. He lives alone and is supposed to have barrel of money. Joseph Gale? Joseph Gale? There's a family named Gale living about three miles along the road, and I believe there is a son. Was this a young man?"
 Yes, think so."
 Have a reckless look about him?"
 'Why, I can't say as to that"
 'Ill note it down that he had. He must have, to plan a cold-blooded murder Did he put the gad to the horse after fighting the cutter and jumping in?"
 He surely did that"
 "A murderer always does something like that to give himself away. We are coming on, girl-we are coming on. Did he glance at the horse in a furtive way?"
 'I didn't see him."
 But I'll note 1t down here that he did. Yes; he must have done so. Murderers are always glancing about in A furtive way. Did his face wear a startled look when the cutter up- set?"
 Tt was too far for me to see."
 But 1t must have" said Nellie's mother.
 Right you are, marm. He thought for A moment that 1 had hold of him. Anything startles man when he has manned a murder. He hasn't come driving back to look for the letter, has he?"
 Not that I have seen.
 Another evidence of his guilt. An honest man would have missed the letter within five minutes and come right back. Oh, he has left clues enough to hang a dozen men,"
 And do you think you will get them?" asked the girl.
 "As sure as you sit there. Plainest case I ever had. Wednesday night will see both of them in limbo. and I'll give 'em the third degree and get a full confession Now. then, not word from either of you. You must he silent as the dead. Not hint not a look. l want to take them red handed"
 After repeated and other warnings, tba constable walked away, bearing tho handkerchief and the letter with him This was on Monday after noon. On Tuesday he called to say that he had hunted up the Gale fam ilv and that there was Joe Gale. Not much could be learned about him. and for this very reason he might be ersnected of almost any crime He oo,ld not deny the letter. and the let tor smoke of a bloody affair. When confronted with 1t he must break down and confess everything
 "Wednesday afternoon the constable ooned to say that his plans were ali Laid and that there was no possible escape for the wretches. He had an other constable to assist in the arrest and if there was any resistance some one would be killed. He hoped 10 make the arrests before nine o'ciocK. but might not find time to return anu give the particulars before next norn- ing.
 It was II o'clock Thursday lore noon when the constable drove up again. With him there was a young man. the same who had been upset in the snow. The constable dld 10. seem to be in bounding spirits, ana the young man hung back httie'

SHORT TERM LEASE OF STATE
LANDS PROVES POOR POLICY

Pierre, S. D., April 1.-The South
dakota constitution provides that no
leases Of state lands shall be made
for q period longer than five years.
Land Commissioner F. F. Brinke feels
that this constitutional limitation Sc
riously hampers the state in renting
it's lands and prevents it from securing
the maximum revenue This is Illus
trated by the experience in last weeks
leasing. Agricultural lands went SLOW
ly, while those for grazing purposes
rented well. The reason for his is that
a much larger investment for improve
mentS is necessary for agriculture
than for grazing. With a five-year
lease it is difficult to get farmers to
put anything but temporary structures
on the land, ven though the law al
lows them their appraised valuation
at the end of the period. because that
appraised valuation is sure to be lower
than cost. Further, with nothing to
look onward to, renters of state lands
take little care to keep the soil from
impoverishment, their idea being to
skin all that they can out of it. while
they have a chance Mr.. Brinker pro-
poses as a remedy for these conditions
that h state constitution be amended
to permit 25-year leases, after the man.
ner of Nebraska. with REIMBURSEMENT
of rates at the end of fve-year pc
RODS, in order that the rents may
correspond with those of adjacent
lands. New Zealand even grants So
year leases. He believes that the
lessee with the prospect of a life te-
nure in the land will take as good
care of it as though he owned the
fee.

FLOODS CLOSE AVENUES
WITH OUTsIDE WORLD

White Owl, 6. d, April 1.-THE ex-
pected has happened, delayed spring
reached here a day or two ago and as
a result all the streams in this section,
even the smallest draw and dry creek,
are raging torrents from melting SHOWS.
The water is the highest known in
years and this place is entirely shut
off from the railroads. The mail, which
has always before been able to cross
the Belle Fourche river by means of a
large overhead cable, at the usual high
water mark, will De delayed this time
until the water recedes from both ends
Of the cable which are several feet un-
der water and can not be cached. To
the north. between here and Faith, the
Sulpher creek is on the BOOM with no
means of crossing it, thus the only
means of reaching the outer world for
several days will be by phone alone.
This is a great hardship on a great
numbe of settlers who are returning
to their homes here. and also to farm
ers who are at the railroads after seed
grain and unable to return home, while
still others are unable to get to the
roads to obtain their seed wheat and
VIII result in a late sowing of crops.

DEAN STERLING PLEADS
FOR INDUSTRIAL LIBERTY

Webster. S. D., April Am enthus-
iastic audience greeted Dean Sterling,
republican candidate for the United
States Senate, in his address here. No
personal abuse was heard but a manly
and statesmanlike discussion of the
measures and principles of government,
porate power was strictly defined. we
have gained our political liberty and
established it, by law aid he, but
our economic and industrial liberty are
yet to be gained" The speaker demon
strated beyond doubt his grasp of the
large questions and his statesmanlike
view of national problems. His decla-
ration in favor of La Toilette as a
standard bearer, was received with en-
thusiastic applause.
From Webster he goes TO Bristol and
other points west to continue the cam
paign.
