of his whereabouts.
He looked round cautiously. No
one was in sight. High up on the
opposite hill he saw the tiny outlines
of tiny cabin. 1t was his sweet
hearts home-Mollie Stark's. 1t was
to avenge an insult to her that he
had shot and crippled Seth Baldwin.
That was two years before, and he
had been sent up for ten. Mollie had
sworn to be true to him.
But since his flight he had not
dared go near her home. It was too
desperate a chance to take. But a
visit on his part to the wild glen in
which they had pIghted their troth
had resulted in the finding of pack
age of food placed there by Mollie. In
it was little note.

The full moon gave almost as
much light as the sun. The fugitive
crawled down the slope and ap-
preached the opposite height, worm
ing his way up through the ferns and
close-clinging vines. At last he
emerged upon little rocky eminence
a hundred yards distant from the
cabin. From Miles window a rag
f1uttered. The fugitive understood
that sign. She was alone. Grasping
his rifle he went forward boldly.
He was within ten yards when the
door opened. His heart leaped. Mol
lie stood in the doorway, her arms
outstretched to welcome him. Behind
her was the Pickering candle. But as
he drew near, suddenly a sight froze
his blood. The shadow Of man had
passed the candle; another, and an
other. He halted in his tracks. Be

HoRRID BOY!

His clothes were faultless, his golf
clubs FURNISHED to the last degree.
The afternoon was perfect, the links
ideal. So, too, were Smithson's man
ner and his self-assurance. But as
for the standard of his play-wel, the
less said concerning it the better.
Even the caddie had never seen
anything to rival it for badness; and
when Smithson tore up with his
mashie, while trying to approach the
seventh hole, a record piece of turf,
the boy wanted to lie on his back and
kick with merriment.
But .Smithson eyed him sternly.
"Caddie," he commanded, replace

Eyes, sir, replied the boy. A pause.
"But why don't you take it home to

Then Smithson kicked the caddie.

Make Living by "Pokino Fires

One occupation by which a score of
Britons are said to earn their liveli-
hood is that of ''poking fires" BY
the rabbinical law no Jew is allowed
to kindle or mend any fire on the Sab
bath, and in certain places in England
where Jews are very numerous this
prohibition makes it necessary that
persons shall be employed from sun
set on Friday to the same hour on
Saturday in going from house to house
lighting fires and lamps and attending

LOWER COAL
RATE A BOON
j.. W. PAIsMLEY SAYS Ignite
BEDS OF STATE WILL SUPPLY
NORTH END OF SOUTH
DAKOTA.

Ipswich. S. D.--j. w. Parmley OF
this place expresses the belief that
the agreement reached between the
South Dakota state railway commits
sion and the Milwaukee railroad, re-
sulting in a reduction of the ship
ping rate on isabel Ignite coal Will
mean a great deal to manufacturers
and others in the eastern half OF
South Dakota. He predicts that Alb
erdeen and the nothern part of South
Dakota will soon burn but little fuel
other than Ignite. The fuel is the
.cleanest there is, he says, makes a
hotter fire than bituminous coal,
holds fire better, and ii properly
handled leaves nothing but white
ashes like wood. The objections are
that it requires u special CRATE, much
finer than ordinary coal and that II
larger amount of fuel must be
handled. Said Mr.. Parmley:
Coal? Why, young man, you will
be gathered to your fathers long be-
fore the coal that is now in sight
within "A hundred miles of the Mis-
souri, river goes up in white smoke.
The mining that is being done is on
the surface or the side OF "A hill. Ac-
cording to all rules, the measures
down deep, or under greater pressure
than those now exposed, will be OF
better quality and are practically in
exhaustible. Ignite coal is very
rich in gases, and the gas from a ton
produces more power than the steam
from a ton of anthracite. Great
power plans will be built in these vast
coal fields and the power transmitted
centers like Aberdeen. But until
capital sees this opportunity we will
make the most of the liberal freight
rate just announced. 1t means more
to all this northwest than the out
come of the game so ardently p'lr-
sued by some of our aspiring politi-
clans"
