Both tried to stick to that view Of
It and, for the present, to dismiss
conjecture upon the new topic from
their minds, but they did not succeed
very well. The idea that forced itself
upon them. In spite of their attempt to
discredit IT, was that Roscoe's acqui-
sition of a modern, long-range weapon
with ammunition to match did not
date back to the murder of Captain
Fielding, nor to the disappearance Of
the Aurora, but that he had found the
weapon, by some strange chance, only
very recently, perhaps within a day
or two. 1t was q disquieting thought,
at best.

Petition Fl rPardon.

To His Excellency. Governor Earl Brewer, OF
Mississippi:
We, the undersigned citizens OF MISSISSIPPI. re-
specially request. your Excellency to grant a
pardon to Moscow Sadler, a negro boy who was
convicted of manslaughter at the March term OF
the Circuit Court of Lee county, MISSISSIPPI, 1910.
and sentenced to serve a term Of twenty years IN
the state penitentiary.
This how was convicted and sentenced as above
stated. and his case was appealed to the supreme
court. While it was pending before that tribunal,
he was transferred to the penitentiary and re-
NAMED there till his case was reversed, in Febru-
airy, 1911. He was convicted again in the lower
court and was sentenced to serveb term of five
years in the state penitentiary- which he Is now
serving.
We believe that if a pardon was granted to him
az this time, he would be a better negro than II
he was held longer. and that he has suffered sui
fciently for said crime, he having been IN the PEN
~itentiary for more than a year since he was last
sentenced, and about two years in gu. BIB

moment she was back with the field
glasses.
While you're attending to the
bear" she said in a whisper, I'll Just
keep watch up the beach for-for any
one else"
The past weeks had made n diff
ference in her attitude toward Cayley
which she was now aware OF, IS she
contrasted her sensations on seeing
Philip step forward, out Of the shelter
of the hut, to confront the bear, with
those she had experienced when he
had set out on a similar errand once
before. She knew him now, and she
had no fear for him. The feeling
that thrilled her now was nearer akin
to pride than anything else.
Cayley fully justified her confidence.
The course the bear was taking would
have brought him within 20 yards OF
their doorstep. When he first caught
sight Of Cayley he stopped. In two
minds, apparently, whether to be
hunted or to do the hunting himself.
Then, as Cayley advanced upon him
rather slowly, he decided, hisssA at
him venomously and reared up.
He was already badly enough
wounded to have taken all the fight
out of any other sort Of animal, but
half alive as he was, he cost Cayley
four cartridges. Three Of those shots
Cayley was reasonably sure must have
entered q vital spot. The FIRST one
look the bear between the eyes as he
was rising. The second was fired into
his open mouth. The third was prob
ably detected by the massive fore
paw which he was holding across his
body, in the attitude of a boxer. Khe
fourth shot, however, penetrated his
throat and probably smashed n Of
the two first vertebrate, for 1t seemed
to bring the monster down all in a
heap, where he finally lay still. Cay
ley could have reached him with his
foot.
Good shooting said the girl quiet
ly from the little vestibule.
He reloaded the revolver, letting
the empty shells drop unheeded on
the ice at his feet. He gave the weap-
on back to the girl, and bent over the
bear.
I'm less interested in what i did
to him." he said, than in what he got
from the nemy who first attacked
him"
The light was almosUgone, so that
all he could see we're two or three
irregular dark stains upon the white
fur. A wound in the flank, which
none of Cayley's shots could have &C
counted for, he explored with prac-
tised hand.
Watching him az he did 30, the
girl could see that he had found some
thing unexpected, something which
surprised him greatly. And there
was more than surprise. There was
alarmed urgency in his voice when he
spoke to her. He offered no explana-
ton. Merely told her to 60 into the
hut and make fast the solid wooden
shutters over the windows. He would
come in and would tell her what It
was all about, In q moment.

task he had given her, when he came
