Jim AND THE ROBBERS
By GEORGE ELMER coee.

When Blinky Rogers, loafer, claim
jumper and mountain pirate, rode into
Prospect on stolen horse and out
OF II on a rail. fancifully adorned with
tar and feathers, the town considered
that they had seen the last of him.
Jim Tousey shared the hope. It was
his horse that had been stolen down at
Golden Gulch. He had trailed his
despoiler, finding him in the midst of
festive revelry. His story. soon told,
led to a brief session of the vigilance
committee and the prompt expulsion
OF Blinky. The Judge, old Cyrus
Pennypacker. invited Jim as a law
abiding stranger, up to the house.
There Jim met HIS fate in the shape
OF winsome, wondrously lovely Elsie
Pennypacker. He fingered. Golden
Gulch had no further attraction for
him, and he went to work at Pros
pect.
1t was a bad time to try and carve
out his fortune In that second-rate
burg. The mines had become skinned
out and nearly all the old workers
had gone over to the new diggings at
Amar. Jim would have gone, too, only
for Elsie. His present mission was
to drive the mine wagon with what
bullion there was over to the branch
mint at Dorseyville. His recovered
horse was staunch and equal to the
long, heavy run up hill and down dale,
The wagon was a heavy one, its box
top being made of sheet iron with
two back doors and tiny slot over
the drivers seat.
I've told you I love you," he said
to Elsie one beautiful moonlit eve
ming, "and there will never be an
other woman shall tell the same
thing to-"
Il believe that, JIM" responded FL

Yes, but we can't live on moon

When Pope Was Broad.

Alexander Pope, the deathless poet
Of England, had large and intimate
experience of the theater. In his time
he was a welcome visitor behind the
scenes and most of the contemporaries
Gus dramatic authors and actors were
proud to be on friendly terms with
him. Mean and little and contemplate
as he was in many of his personal re-
lations (recall Lady Mary Wortley
Montagu's estimate of his infinite lit.
tleness) he nevertheless had a
broad streak. This, of course, from
the viewpoint of the intellectual. He
was in ready sympathy with the strug-
glers on the stage, and he wrote this
apology for imperfections that are in
separable from plays, no less than
from other works of finite, therefore
imperfect beings:
Whoever thinks a faultless piece to
see,
Thinks what ne'er was, nor is, nor e'eI

'Jim," observed Elsie, otis heaven
as it is to have you near me.
don't ask much-a little home of any
kind, and you, and me working all day
long just to make it comfortable and
cheerful when you come home"
You blessed GIRL" cried Jim, "you
deserve palace-and I'm going to try
and get one for you"
Jim did a lot of thinking all the
way to his lonely shack over near the
Hope Forever mine. He had heard
of big strikes in the new diggings, and
was resolved to change his base and
try his luck. No bullion had been
sent over to the mint for nearly a
month. He started to take look at
the horse before he turned in for the
night.
Hello! what's up?" calculated Jim,
as he discovered the stall empty and
the wagon missing from it's customary
place. He ran out to look about the
vicinity for some trace of 1t. Round
ing rock he came upon the rig all
ready for travel. Two men stepped
from the shadow of the vehicle.
THAT will do-hands up!" ordered
one Of them, and IL was Blinky Rogers
who spoke.
His companion made Jump for
Jim. He was so quick that he had the
advantage. A rock or weapon in his
hand laid Jim PROSTATE. His senses
deserted him.
When he aroused, Jim was con-
scious that he was lying in the bot
tom of the wagon. He was tied hand
and foot and theie was a gag in his
mouth. The back door of the box was
locked. He could hear the two men
on the seat beyond the front barrier
conversing.
Think 1t the right idea to cart
him along with us?" spoke one voice.
"You would leave him there to
raise posse and put after US. would
your" challenged Blinky Rogers.
Wen keep him close till the Job is
done. Grand idea Of the rig. We
can cart our stun over the range.
abandon man and rig. and get fast
and far before the mint people know
what has struck them"
Now Jim guessed out the riddle. The
two desperadoes were bound for the
branch mint at Dorseyville. It was
a poorly built, poorly protected place.
and they probably had the tools to
break into the cr"dely safeguarded
treasure room. They had utilized his
rig TO cart away their plumber. They
had made him helpless. They might
Rffectually dispose Of him when their
task was completed.

sawmlII In Japan.

There is being erected by an Ameri-
can trading company for the Comet
Kaisha Fujita Gumi at Osaka a mod
ern sawmill that is to be fitted
throughout with the latest American
machinery for saving logs into varf
GUS dimensions of lumber, also with
the automatic devices for handling it
from one set Of saws and planes to the
other as required. By the use of this
modern machinery the daily output
will be greatly increased and the labor
cost lowered.
AS the sawmill referred TO will be
the first TO be erected in Japan on the
modern American plan 1t is believed
that 1t will be the forerunner OF many
more. or the modernization in part at
least OF those now in operation where
the work is done by hand or where
only a ripsaw Is used.

men leave The WAGON. Then there was
a long lapse of silence.
When they returned the rear doors
OF the vehicle were unlocked Some
thing was pushed In. something heavy
in two large canvas sacks.
IT'S a big haul. and oh. how easyl"
Jim heard Blinky Rogers chuckle
How is the fellow in thereT
Dead to the world" retorted Rog-
ers carelessly. Il reckon that blow
you gave him was a settler. Ill look
him rr again, though. while we try
the other vault in the mint"
"Tve got to do something" breath
ed Jim desperately and for the first
time made a strong effort to release
his hands.
The endeavor was futile. He could
not bulge the stout withes at wrists
and ankles. However, he managed
to crowd upright, and then to his de-
light mouthed the gag to one side so
he could use his lips.
Jim looked out through the little
slot at the top of the front Of the
wagon box. The well trained horse
stood patiently awaiting further or
ders. A brilliant idea came into
Jim's mind.
"Rustlerl" he spoke softly-"Rust-
Ter, old fellowi"
The horse pricked up his ears. He
recognized his masters tones.
Home, old fellow-homel home!"
Rustler started up, made direct
turn, strobe down the road. Jim's
heart was In his mouth. He feared
the burglars might notice the maneu-
yer. Luckily they did not. One min
ute, five minutes-hfty yards, one-half
mile!
And now he gave the familiar d.
rection to the splendidly trained ami
NAL.
"Go!"
The intelligent steed speeded up
just as promptly as though his mas
ter was holding the reins. Every
mile advanced Jim's heart beat high
er and higher as he thought Of the
precious treasure beside him.
He laughed in glee at a memory of
the discontinue of the mint hooters.
He laughed louder, as nearing Pros
pect the horse instead of going
straight home, made for the Penny
packer house-not unused to carrying
his master there counting nights"
How Jim's voice rang out upon the
still morning air as Rustler came to
a halt directly under the window of
the room of the girl he lovedl
A sash went up, then another-the
sweet alarmed bird tones of Elsie, the
gruff, challenging voice of the judge
mingled. Then, hurriedly dressed,
both came down into the yard.
There was a rapid story to reveal
when the doors of the wagon were
forced open and Jim was rescued. The
town was alarmed and a posse soon
formed.
At noon that day word was brought
to Prospect that the burglars were in
Jail at Golden Gulch, that the mint
people had $1,000 reward waiting for
Jim and the tender OF a good posi-
ton.

pectant in Christendom.
