stupefed and agape; for Danny, hav-

cast upon the table between them the
Pool of Flame.

triumph in Danny's face.

complained "As II wouldn't work

"'Tis now Thursday noon," con-
ttnued O'Rourke thoughtfully. The

At eight Sunday morning a steamer

But how'll we be catching thot

far's that from Calcutta, now, an win
there be thrains at that hour av the
night?"
That's 10 be dealt with as 1t turns
up, Danny. There's only forty miles
between the two places, and If there's
no train, we'll charter a motor-car or
a boat down the Hughll
The latter expedient o'Rourke final
ly adopted, although he could have af-
forded comfortable night in a ho-
tel at Calcutta, had he deemed it wise
But in the fifty-six hours of unmitigat-
ed sweltering that he and Danny en-
dured in their flight across India he
had leisure to think matters over very
carefully, with the result that, all
things considered, he felt justified in
assuming the world to be in league
against him and in shaping his course
accordingly. Therefore it were un-
wise to permit himself to be seen and
recognized in Calcutta, or even to lin
ger on the soil of India an instant
longer than absolutely necessary.
Within an hour, then, of his arrival
at Howrah, he had, by dint of per
sistence and rupees, succeeded in hir-

wife and baby of one year. spent
the holidays with his father and
sisters here. Tuesday of last
week he babe them good bye and
returned to his home in Oswego,
Kansas, his wife and baby re-
naming with Mr.. McAllister's
family here.
The family and entire COM
munity were shocked late Mon
day afternoon upon receipt of a
message from Oswego, announc-
ing the death there of Alexis.
The message conveyed the in
formation that death resulted
from gas poison, but not until
the remains reached here accom-
panied by Mr.. Abe Steinberger,
the father-in-law of Mr.. McAllis-
ter, were the particulars known.
On Saturday night Alexis took
supper with an aunt of his wife's
who resides in Oswego, and de-
clined an invitation to spend the
night, and returned to his home.
He had told his partner,
! Douglass Hines, that he would
see him at preaching Sunday
morning.
From the surroundings in the
house, he got up Sunday morn
ing and prepared himself a
breakfast of toast and eggs. He
then got ready for church and
having turned on the gas that
heated a stove in a sleeping room.
and taking a book he threw him
self across the bed in his shirt
sleeves.
He had accepted an invitation
to dine with another member of
the Steinberger family and not
arriving at the noon hour two
small boys were sent to his house
for him. The house was locked
and they returned home and re
ported that Alexis was not there.
On Monday morning when he
failed to reach his place Of bust
ness, his partner. Douglass
Hines. went to the residence of
Mrs. Steinberger to inquire of
his whereabouts. Not finding
him there young Hines and Mrs.
Steinberger went to the home of
Alexis and peerine through the
window saw him across the bed.
Upon entering the house they
found him dead. Physicians were
Immediately summsned and pro-
nounced death due to gas poison.
Alexis B. McAllister was the
only son of A. P. McAllister and
Louise Leslie Kyle. He was born
in Saltillo, Miss, August 18th,
1887, was married to Miss Ethel
Steinberger, daughter of Mr..
Abe Steinberger, on February Z,
1910, from which union one little
girl was born.
The family moved to Tupelo
when Alexis was a.year old and
his boyhood days were spent
here.
Within the wide range of our
acquaintanceship we have never
known a boy who impressed us
more with his manly qualities
than did Alexis McAllister. 1t
was our pleasure to know him
upon terms of close personal
friendship since he was a small
tot, and in growing to manhood
we took pride and derived per-
sonal pleasure in seeing his good
qualities develop into splendid
manhood. He was a manly boy
and grew into a manly, upright
man.. Among his fellows he was
universally esteemed and his
elders appreciated his true worth
as a boy and a young man. In
the fnmily circle he displayed
the qualities that stamp the son
and brother as worth the lo.e
and confidence te.toNe ed upon
him by the fond par ants and de-
voted sisters, and as a husband

JUDGE ARCHIBALD
LIKELY TO KNOW
HIS FATE TO-DAY
Subcommittee Goes Into Ex-
ecutive Session to Pre-
pare Report. .

The House judiciary Committee is ex-
pected to decide the fate Of the Arch
bald impeachment investigation today.
The committee went into executive ses-
sion at ! lo'clock and took recess at
Ills until 2:30 o'clock.
The subcommittee to which was re-
ferred the examination of the evidence
given during the hearing completed it's
report yesterday and the typewriter
report was submitted to the full COM
mittee this morning. Congressman
Webb, Floyd, Sterling. and Morris COM
pose the subcommittee. 1t was the
business of this committee to deter
mine what charges were proved to n
sufficient degree 10 be included in a re-
port for impeachment
The report has been current for some
time that the result of the investigation
would not be favorable to Judge Arch
bald. No reason has yet appeared to
cause this report to be doubted.
1t is believed that the long session Of
the committee was enforced through a
careful consideration of the wording Of
the report. rather than the discussion OF
what its general trend should be.

for the development Of the Hadley
program. The decision to bolt the
convention was the result ..a.
Governor Hadley stated to a con-
ference of Roosevelt leaders, called
today in the colonel's rooms, that he
had been misrepresented in the press
reports. The Missouri executive was
asked what would be his course Of
action II the convention refused to
unseat the so-called fraudulent dele
gates. He replied:
~ will rise in my place and announce
to the convention that | will have no
part in the convention which does busi-
ness with a roll tainted with this kind
of fraud
"win you leave the hall?" he was
asked
IL will not say that" he answered.
Governor Hadley argued against bolt
ing the convention until the credentials
committee report had been reported and
acted upon. He contended that the po-
sition Of those who were fighting the
tainted roll would be stronger II
every opportunity was given the con-
vention TO remove the questioned dele
gates.

friends stated that overtures had been
made by the opposition, seeking COM
promise on the basis of seating the
Roosevelt delegates from California,

Colonel Roosevelt cut short consider

| there was no room for compromise or
a matter OF principle. and that the yer!
fact that certain people were disposed
