Injustice. He had passed through q
lgreat peril. He was what she had al
lways hungered to behold hero.
Miss Gussie fingered for an hour and
then left the things she had brought,
taking her departure to reappear next
Eday and the next and the next. In
brief, her visits were made daily for
the next seven days, and each day she
saw that her bad man was making an
improvement On the last day she
ound him waiting at the plum trees.
He had furbished himself up as best
he could and looked more presentable.
His lameness was about gone, and the
saddle from his horse was on the
ground beside him. -.....
my dear young lady," he began, lit
goes without saying that my gratitude
is unbounded. Did l promise not to
make you proposal of marriage?"
IL don't remember prevaricated
the girl as red flush crossed her face.
II think did. and I will stick to
my promise. 1t was to be romance
and nothing beyond. No love. no mat
rimony-just romance. I might make
an exception in your case, however,
"Please don't-that is. what are you
doing with my saddle?'
Removing it to make room for mine.
There. we have it. You see. have
got to borrow your horse. That will
also be included in the romance"
"But object. 1t is not my horse"
"Sorry, my dear girl, but can't get
away without him. and if should be
taken our little romance would be
spoiled. For all your kindness thank
you, and should we meet again under
different circumstances''-
Miss Gussie grabbed at the horse,
but the bad man was too quick for
her. He raised his hat and smiled as
he rode away, and she sat down on
stone and cried. She was still crying
when the sheriff and four men came
galloping up and plunged down into
the gorge. They were back in five
minutes, and the official asked:
Young woman, have you seen any
thing of man around here this morn
ing?"
HE rode off on my horse half an
hour ago." replied the girl.
$50 he lived through it?''
"But the men had no right to jump
his claim when he was ill.," said Miss
Gussie in a spirited way.
Jump his claim! Do you know
who the feller is?''
"N-not exactly, but he was very
nice. He had to take my horse to get
away from you.'
Hear her talking. That feller is
Bob Hill, the most notorious highway
robber in four states. You must have
nursed him up and helped him to va
moose, and I don't Know but what l
shall have to hold you as accessory"
That evening it was bright moon
light, and Miss Gussie was sitting
we'll away from the camp watching
the last rays Of twilight fade into
night. By and by young Mr.. Caswell
came over and took her hand and said:
, my dear Gussie, the fourth occa-
sion has arrived. know l am not fit
to lick up your tracks in the dust,
but
"You can consider that we are en-
gagged" said the girl as she thought
how mean it was of the stranger not
to have made her at least tiny pro-
posal before he gobbled her horse and
rode away-just enough of proposal
to enable her to brag about it among

WHAT HALSTEAD THINKS

Brainerd Tribune: The gathering at
Chicago for the announced purpose Of
"reorganizing. the republican party
along progressive lines' proved rath-
er lonesome and dismal affair. When

The Journal-Press OF st. Cloud does
not take kindly to the form of COM
mission government now being worked
gests radical change, believing one
commissioner better than five. The
article reads:
Little Falls is trying for a better
form of government. The latest from
that enterprising city is that plan is
being worked out to have commits
sion Of five men, each paid salary Of
$lO0, and then have these five men
employ a city manager. There is some
merit in the plan. It would undoubt-
edly be great improvement over the
present system. But why five COM
missioners to select a manager? Why
five bosses for one man?
If Little Falls wants to be truly pro-
gressive it will cut out the commits
sioners, and elect the mayor, and pay
him decent salary.
That is what st. Cloud is going to
do in the near future.
This city has discovered that the
commission form Of government is five
times better than the old mayor-coun-
Gil system-because there were five
times as many bosses under the may.
or-council plan. We know that there
is a system that will be three times
better than the commission form, and
that is to have the people elect a may
or or manager, and hold him responsi.
BILE for results.
Little Falls has the chance to lead
the country in what will be the ideal
plan and the last word in model mum.
ciral government.
The idea Of electing five commission.
ers is nothing but an assumption that
the people cannot be trusted to select
q manager. The people might occa.
sionally make mistakes. as will the
five commissioners, but it is the safest
proposition to put the responsibility
diroct7v on the people. This coupled
with the recall will bring good re-
suits

"Why did not Charles come back yes

Etampes, Seine-et-Loire recently. His
elder brother, Edward Nieuport, was
killed in the military aerial maneuvers

The news Of the second sons death
had been hidden from the father, and
his relatives could only reply, CHARLES
has gone for great flight"
"Ah, we'll! And why then has not
Edward come to bid me good night?
They could not make him remember
that Edward was long dead. With
tears in their eyes his grandchildren
brought him letters and flowers to dis

"What has happened then?' asked
the old colonel.

he was heard muttering: 1T is dread

HAUNTING TRAGEDY
Follows the Family of a Council
Bluffs, Iowa, Dairyman.

Council Bluffs, Ia, Marcn 81
With the memory Of one recent tragedy,
in which three persons were killed,
still wildly impressed on their minds,
Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Norgaard had
moved from their home across the road
from the scene of the first tragedy only
to have death visit them in Sunday
evenings tornado. Their infant child
was killed and Mrs. Norgaard and her
daughter are now lying in a local hos.
pital in a precautions condition. Last
September, when the terrible tragedy
in the Martin Thompson home, east Of
this city, occurred. in which Thomp-
son b~utchered his wife and child and
then took his own life, the N~orgaards
lived directly across the road, and were
among the first to visit the stricken
home. The terrible scenes which they
witnessed left a vivid impression in
their minds, and only a short time
ago they moved tc a farm on the east
edge of the city, where they might get
away from the scene Of the triple
tragedy and continue their dairy bust
ness. In December a baby was born
In o the household. Their s%ecurity
was shortlived, however. Sunday
night the tornado swooped down upon
them, killing the infant child and
seriously injuring both the mother
and ~E-year-old daughter Their re-
covery is uncertain. Norgaard escaped
with slight injuries.

MASTER HUSBAND
How He Must Treat His Wife to
Hold Her Respect.

Chicago, March 27.-Dr. William F.
Waugh, dean of Bennett Medical col.
.lege and chief surgeon of Jefferson
Park hospital, has stirred up a hor
nets nest through his article printed
in the Alienist and Neurologist thi,
month wherein be urges wife beating
as u proper and wholesome discipline
He writes:
when you find your mate, take
her; she is expecting it.
"When You have hel. live for her;
she demands it.
when she awakens your jealousy
beat her; she needs it,"
According to the physician. some
women require beating. Through the
lack of it they escape from their hus,
bands control, and are incapable Of
controlling themselves. They find by
the absence of the beatings that their
husbands are not their masters.
Therefore. they seek other masters.
