Hon. Walter Evans, United State,
Judge for the sixth circuit and west

before the court for selling whisky
without a license. Uncle George had

gray, and generally dilapidated in ap

out complete case against him. The
old negro had no attorney.

away from him, with no position to
guarantee comfort for the dear ones
at home. The stranger had been reg.

glanced twice at Cole after he had
made his plea. He seemed studying
the situation. There were lines in his
face that showed hard contact with
the world, and these did not indicate
any deep sympathy. His accustomed
cynical expression changed, however,
as some good impulse stirred him. He
arose, went over to Cole, placed his
hand on his shoulder and said tersely.

the cold, the discomfort, the hard
shin! A storm Of emotion, of anguish,
was sweeping through his brain with
rushing, devastating force. That name
Miss Norton-had unlocked the
most secret chamber in mis- heart OF
hearts.
Two years before Dale Tyler had
been engaged to Miss Lucia Norton,
of Hampton. There had come a
lovers quarrel. He was impetuous,
and she was just. In fit of pique he
had gone west. Losing his ambition,
from work as an engineer he became
a practical linesman on account OF the
hustle and exercise of outside work.
All that time his life was embittered
by his rash act, but he was proud, and
long since he had decided that Lucia
must have forgotten him as he de-
served, he told himself
And now-transferred nearer to his
old home. his first task had been to re-
pair the broken wires for the wedding
Of Miss Norton. Oh, the cruel, bitter
irony Of it all!
It was a fearful task breast:ng the
storm, mastering with grim desperate
resolution that rigorous tramp six
miles along a lonely, snow-clogged
highway. He counted the poles. The
fever in his blood defied the intense
cold. He found pole 5S5. Within
thirty minutes he had repaired the
break, but as he started to descend
the pole he found himself frozen to
1t.
The reaction had come, and he
reached the ground coated with Ice,
chilled to the marrow. He swept the
frost from his face and leaned against
a tree to steady himself. A light
showed in the distance.
Il must reach it some way" Tyler
told himself. II must phone the Of
flee. Besides. l must get to shelter
somewhere"
1t was his hardest experience in two
years service in a hard line. It was
staggering, slipping, falling prog.
ress all the way to the source of the
light, small cottage. He knocked at
its door.
So blurred was his sight, so chilled
and numb was he, that he made out q
feminine form in dim outline only.
i am a linesman nearly persisted
with the cold, and must telephone to
headquarters" he faltered out.
Tyler was conscious Of cry Of
some kind, and that his hostess stood
aside. He staggered across the
threshold, fell to a chair and nearly
tainted from the abrupt transition
from the intense cold to heat. Life
was blur for some moments. Then
his vitality came back to him.

1t was a gasp of wonder, that name.

He had in his possession a ticket read

pie have failed to obtained any infor-
nation at either of these points.
Waiting passengers called the atten-

man She located a doctor in the
throng, who advised quick removal to
hospital At the time the man said
he had suffered from such attacks for
years and would soon recover. He
agreed to spend the night at the hos

hospital authorities thought to ask.

When it became apparent Wednes-
day morning that his condition was
much worse, Matron Payne was mott
fed, but by the time she reached his
bedside he was unable to speak. He
has been sinking gradually since then
and no hope is held for his recovery.
Doctors say it may be possible that he
will recover the use of his voice before
the end comes.
