urging the lieutenant governor to in
tercede.
While every proceeding had halted
pending the governors arrival, word
reached police headquarters that a
crowd had assembled at the station.
Patrolmen, detectives and plain
clothes men were hurried there to
prevent any demonstration.
When the governor stepped on the
platform he was quickly surrounded
by officers who escorted him to taxi
cab which took him quickly to the
capitol.
In his Office at the State prison SUI
perintendent Wood was pacing The
floor, nervously, as he awaited devel-
opments. The situation there haI be-
come more tense. Precisely at noon
the superintendent was called 70 the
telephone.
"The Governor of Virginia is at his
DESK" was the message he received
from the capitol and instantly prepa-
rations were made to obey the man.

had assemble at . o'clock, the hour
announced fC~ me execution, had left
the prison with instructions to return
at 1 o'clock.

Just after sunrise the Aliens prac-

half day respite had been granted
y combination Of legal and techni-
cal circumstances as strange as any
that had ever been presented to a
court or justice. Claude Allen, who
rad retained his nerve throughout the
trying ordeal in his behalf, gasped
and trembled, but he regained his
composure as he noted the hopeless
and detected appearance of his aged
father in the cell across the corridor.
AS the morning hours passed they
sat with their spiritual advisers, but
they nerved themselves again for the
end when they heard that Governor
Mann had returned to Virginia. Men
prominent in official circles of the
State, who waited in the capitol for a
final plea to the governor, were
turned away, as his secretary handed
out this statement fro mthe execu-
tive:
Hearing at five minutes to three
O'Clock this morning of the action
taken in the Allen case after l left
the city, l considered it my duty to
hurry back. 1 simply desire to re-
peat that after the most careful ex.
animation of the evidence in this
case, l have not the slightest doubt
of the guilt of Floyd and Claude
Allen, and l will not interfere. The
law must take its course"
What brought forth the greatest
indignation from the governor was
the reported fact that the plan to ap-
peal to the lieutenant governor was

BOAT WORKS BUSILY h
ENGAGED

Work started Tuesday en- the
erection Of a two story boat house
at the Eagle River Boat Works,
the lower part will have stalls for
launches, while the upper floor
will be used as paint shop. The
plant has been busy all winter
putting up launches for different
parties among them being: one

Iy summers here, two IS footers
for Fenske Bros. Of Milwaukee,
one for a St. Louis party, besides
several for local citizens, all of
them will be used on the Eagle
chain by the owners when here
for the summer. The launches
buIt by this firm are equal to the
best in appearance, workmanship
and material, and superior to ma
ny higher priced imported boats,
which has caused the business to
steadily increase since starting
here. There are no good reasons
for going outside Of Eagle River
t. buy a launch or row boat while
while there are many for placing
the order here, not the least be-
ing, the opportunity Of the pur-
chaser to witness the construct

buiIlers are here to cheei.fully
make good any defects at all times.
They will install any type Of en-
CINE desired, and belong to the
class Of nachinsts who are able

quite an important item in the
successful operation of motor

launch investment this season
should call and look at the stock of
finished and unfinished boats be-
fore buying out Of town.

Three days later as Miss. Grace
Haskell rode that way with pony and
cart, she saw a flower that she want

entered the grounds and picked it,
and she also looked in at broken

independent reply.
"Mebbe you want to be arrested as
trespasser?"

"Jest about three months in the
county Jail is what that gal needs!"
muttered the farmer as he drove on.
1t happened that Mr.. Ranfew came
down two days later to diagnose the
ailments of an old pear tree and en-
countered both of the farmers. They
were eager to tell him of both the
trespassers and advise that they be

When Harry and his mother were
summoned home by a peremptory ca
blegram from DR.. Bell they discov-
cred that David Bashford was sui

only had the Bashford mills been fore
closed by creditors and sold to strang-

through their share of the liabilities.
All this ruin had been wrought by
David.
They were allowed to remain in
their old home for a year at a large

ford credit in the village of Bashford
had been unquestioned and Maria
strained it to the utmost.
She closed her eyes to the fact that
black Nick and his wife, Heppy, were
working for her unpaid; she even be-

keep a second maid to help Heppy.
She persisted in living in the same
style to which she had been accus-

walked out Of the gate.
He had sold everything that he own

1t was not great big river like the
Amazon, but one just big enough to
give Fate a fair show. At a certain
stretch there were high bluffs and
deep water. 1t was on one of these
bluffs that Miss Grace Haskell sat
fishing as Mr.. Renfrew came gliding
down
They could not see each other for
the bushes lining the bank, but an
old COW ashore saw the girl and with
out rhyme or reason made for her.
Cows have various emotions, and hui
man beings can't tell what particular
one will come uppermost at partic-

There were screams and shrieks.
There was a charging COW. There was
a lodging girl. Then space Of bluff

two cases of trespass by two Graces,
two Susans or two Pollys, but they
wouldn't want to swear to 1t.
And then, to cap the climax, Miss
Grace Halsey came upon him as he
was making a diagnosis of dead

"You can have your old bushes

Then 1t was you that took them?"

"More fool you! She has also had

CT think l will call and have a
talk with her." said Mr.. Renfew as he
gave the old plum tree a kick and
felt that he didn't care what disease it
died of.
Better keep away, young man. Her
old man is just aching to get his paws
on you, and they keep bad bulldog
