MEEkLY SHORT STORY
THE SHORT cur.


When Marjorie opened her sewing
room window TO let in the brisk morn
ing breeze the picture she made in
her new white dress. framed by the
climbing vines, was refreshing enough
to make any passerby look up sec
ond time. One did. though Marjorie
was quite unaware OF the fact
Her thoughts we're as far away az
the shadowy mountains beyond which
she had lived her old and happier life.
For several years now Nlarjorie's
world had been on this side OF the
hills: so she sighed. sat down BY the
open window and began sewing In
termlnable yards OF lace on strips OF
fine muslin. The stitches were micro
scopic. as hefftted the rousseau OF a
daughter OF the rich"
Half an hour later a whistle. as
spontaneous as a birds trill. made her
jump up and again look out OF the
window.
In the young man swinging down
the road Marjorie recognized one OF
the sumner guests. He opened the
gate and came down the path toward
her window.
In her haste 10 escape being caught
In the very act OF provincial curiosity,
Marjorie dropped her thimble. IL
struck q stone on the edge OF the walk
and with q metallic ring bounded on
into the garden. The young man res-

AUSTIN NOT CAUGHT.
Said to Have Been Seen in Jackson
vile.

Jacksonville, Fla, May 20.-Rich-
ard Henry Austin, the negro desper-
ado and triple murderer, who has
eluded capture for the past four
weeks, was located in Jacksonville, it
is said. He was recognized by an
Atlantic Coast Line railway fireman
who is a resident of Luray and who
has known the black all his life. A
trap was laid for his capture Sat-
urday night by the Jacksonville po-
lice but he did not fall into it.
The local authorities are of the
opinion that he has left the city, if he
ever was here.
The fireman, whose name could not
be- ascertained, made an engagement
with Austin to meet him at the Un-
ion station Saturday night, it is said.
Afterward he reported the matter to
the police authorities who laid a
trap to catch the negro. Detectives
were concealed at the appointed place
of meeting with instructions to cap
ture the desperate al all hazards. If
he made the slightest attempt at
resisting arrest the man stalkers were
commanded to kill him. Everything
was in readiness at the appointed
time but Austin did not turn up.
The local detectives are of the opin-
ion that Austin left this city after
staying here but short time, fearing
that some one who knew him might
inform on him.

To the dear little beautiful land of

To dance in the moonbeams clear,
And love goes by with her lips of light,
And her little sons so dear!

And we wander IN dreams from the

To the dreams of the things to be!
All, dear little land of hope, shine on
Live a start that leads to God
Wherever we wander, wherever we toll
Wherever we YEARLY plod!
A land where the sunshine is always

And the balmiest breezes blow,
And the grasses are green meath our

And the beautiful roses grow!

CONVICTED OF BLACKMAIL.
Found Guilty of Menacing Woodrow
Wilson.-Both Mountain Men.

Newark, N. J., May 20-seeley
Davenport and Jacob Dunn, mountain
wood choppers of Wharton, N. J,'
were convicted by a federal jury to-
night of sending threatening letters
to Woodrow Wilson while he was
president-elect. In the case OF DaV-
export the jury recommended mercy.
The communications mailed to Mr..
Wilson were received by his secretary,
Jos. P. Tumulty, in May and Novem-
ber of last year and demanded
money in sums of $1,000 and $4,000
under penalty of death.
Mr.. Johnson testified to receiving
the two letters which the defendants
are alleged to have written and mailed
to Gov. Wilson at Trenton. One dat
ed May 12, 1912, be said, demanded
$1,000 under penalty of death; the
other was dated November II, 1912,
and demanded $4,000.
The last letter contained threat
to shoot the president-elect if the
money we're not forthcoming, and
reminded him of @what happened to
Mckinley" The letters never reached
Gov. Wilson, being intercepted by his
secretary.
Mr.. Tumulty told of receiving the
two letters addressed to Gov. Wilson
and turning them over to the postal
authorities.
John T. Weber, rural letter car
rier. testified that the letters had been
mailed in a letter box on his route
and taken by him to the Wharton
postofhce.
Frank A. Butler, postal inspec-
tor. testified he had assisted in ar
resting Dunn and Davenport and that
Dunn admitted having written the
letters, but later denied it.
