CHAPTER VIII
BIG PRINT.

In the Cosmic Club Mr.. Alger-
non Spofford was a figure of dis
tinction. Amidst the varied, curl
ons, eccentric, brilliant, and eevn
slightly unbalanced minds which
made the organization unique, his
was the only wholly stolid and
stupid one. Club traditions de-
clared that he had been admitted
solely for the beneficent purpose
of keeping the more egotistic
members in a permanent and
pleasing glow of superiority. He
was very rich, but otherwise quite
harmless. In an access of I'M
appreciated cynicism, Average
Jones had once suggested to him,
as device for his newly acquired
coat-of-arms, "Rocks ct Praeterea
Mill"
But the "praeterea nihil' was
something less than fair to Mr..
Spofford, with whom it was not
strictly case of nothing fur
Their" besides his "rocks." Am
bition, the vice of great souls,
burned in Mr.. Spofford's pigeon
breast. He longed to distinguish
himself in the line of endeavor of

This photograph was secured
from an American refugee from
Parral, Mexico, by correspond
ent of the Times after two bat
ties in that town, in which Orozco
revolutionists won. 1t shows
Thomas Fountain, an American
citizen, and his machine gun,
which he used in the command of
Poncho Villa against the revolu-
tionists. Fountain was taken
prisoner and slain under the ter
rible law of "ley fuga" by revo-
lutionists.
Fountain hid in the attic of a
small house. After ~ hours he
made his presence known on ac-
count of thirst and hunger. Oc-
cupants of the house delivered
him to the revolutionists.

and taking a chance at escape.
Fountain chose flight, because
of the gamblers chance he might
succeed. He was permitted to run
about 100 yards. Then IL men
fired. At the very moment when
he had turned his head to look
back bullet struck him in the
ear and pierced his head.
The revolutionists left the body
lying in the field as it had fallen,
and four hours later American
citizens of the town, who were
preparing to flee, were permitted
to bury it.
In box cars and cabooses $50
Americans left the town two
hours later for Ell Paso, Texas, on
the Rio Grande.. They cheered as
they came over the bridge into
the United States.

A TW|CE-TOLD TALE

One of Interest to Our Readers.
Good news bears repeating, and
when 1t is confirmed after a long
lapse of time, even If we hesitated
to believe it at first hearing, we
feel secure in accepting its truth
now. The following experience of
a Tacoma man is confirmed after
eight years.

Tacoma, Wash, says: II have

of Doan's Kidney Pills publicly

his friend Jones, and was prone
to proffer suggestions, hints, and
even advice, to the great tribula-
tion of the recipient. Hence 1t
was with misgiving that the Ad-
Visor opened the door of his sane
tum to Mr.. Spofford, on a harsh
December noon. But the r:isgiv-
1ngs were supplanted by pleased
surprise when the caller laid in
his hand a clipping from a small
country paper, to this effect:

wick not drowned nor harmed.
Retained for ransom. Safe and
sound to parents for $4,000.

PIN-PRICKS

Either that, or to impel him,
by suggestion, to suicide or to re-
vert to the headache powders,
which would have meant the asy-
lum again. Just to put him
out of the way, or to make his
testimony incompetent for the will
contest. So, when the ex-lunatic
returned from Europe a year ago,
our friend Honeywell here, in
some way located him at the Ca
roma. He matured his little
scheme. Through a. letter broker
who deals with the rag and refuse
collectors, he got all the second
hand mail from the Caronia.
Meanwhile, William Honeywell

Hunter Robinson moved in, re-

have done to one whose mind

wronged Robinson.
