ley used as a study. There all
was confusion. Books and papers
were lying about in juxtaposition
with pals of soapy water and
cleaning rags. Mr.. Bagley groan-
ed to himself. How often he had
begged his wife to leave this one
room alone even he could not
have counted, but all to no pur-
pose. Mrs. Bagley did not hear
the groan, for it did not leave his
throat, but she knew it was there,
and triumphant expression be-
gan to spread over her face, lit.
tie dirty, if the truth be told.
Il think you will be glad that I
have insisted on cleaning this
room," she said coldly, moving
ponderously toward the closet,
and motioning her husband to
stand upon chair just within the
door.
Wondering, yet obedient, Mr..
Bagley climbed on the cane seat,
hoping he would not go through,
peered at the shelf at the top, then
cried out loud:
Rodgers" he said sharply,
jumping down.
Eyes, what is it?" Rodgers
asked, springing forward.
"You get up there and look"

last house cleaning, were neat
packages of bills, and gold and
silver.
Jumping wild catsp he ex-
claimed, only he did not say ex-
actly those words.
Can either of you explain?"
Mrs. Bagley asked in cold voice.
Il can't" Mr.. Bagley admitted,
wiping his. face with one of the
cleaning rags he picked up in his
confusion, and thereby decorat-
ing his face with some streaks of
dust.
Rodgers did not say anything,
but raked off the money and then
sat down on the bare floor and
began counting it. 1t was all
there to the last roll of Is pennies,
all that had been stolen from the
safe on the two occasions when it
was robbed.
Mrs. Bagley folded her arms on
her ample bosom and watched un-
til she saw that the detective had
finished counting, and then fired
at him:
"And now will you solve this
mystery"
Rodgers looked up at her,
smiled a little and asked quietly:
Does Mr.. Bagley. walk in his
sleep?"
"Of course not" Mr.. Bagley
snapped, rubbing his nose vigor-

RICH MAN A FARM PUPIL
REBUKED FOR HARDNESS

Pittsburgh, Pa, May 16.-James l.
Buchanan, president of the Pittsburgh
Trust company, member of the Pitts
burgh board of public education and
prominently identified with local bust
ness enterprises, is to be a farmer.
He a entered the Cornell university
school of farming and is one of thu
most diligent pupils there, his teachers
say.
ITO acquire knowledge of how to run
a farm, Buchanan goes to Ithaca every
week and remains there for three days
attending classes and lectures. He is
treated exactly like his classmates,
most of whom are young enough to b.
his sons. His instructors do not hesi-
tate to rebuke him whenever he blum
ders.
Not long g Buchanan was unavoid-
ably detained home when he should
have been on his way to schoo Result,
he missed one of the lectures. Next
day he was called up and asked to ex-
plain why he had played hockey. The
truant claimed a pressing business en-
gagement. That excuse was rejected
as insufficient.

must work for more intense cultivation
and more intelligent cultivation of the
soil to realize the best results. To Sc

that farmers must devote more atten-
ton to leguminous crops, and to crop
rotation. E. E. Kneedy and G.. w. Case
urged upon the league the Importance
of good roads work and the profit that
will accrue to them to better facili-
ties for getting their crop to market.

PLAN TO CONSOLIDATE
CHURCH BENEVOIENCES

Pierre. s. D.. May 1S.-The annual
conference of the Congregational
church In South Dakota will meet at
Belle Fourche Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday, May Fl to %, at which
the report of the committee of the
national council on church pol1ty will
be freely and fully considered. This
report provides for the ultimate CEN
tering of all the church benevolences,
which at present are scattered through
seven societies, under one head. thus
saving the large waste of maintenance
and propaganda accustomed by the
divided work. The conference will also
appoint delegates to the national coun-
ell, which meets at Kansas City next
year.
