Eleanor seemed to be watchfully

The conversation ,drifted around to

It seems strange to me that men

They seem to want to think of us

On a Charge Of Murder.

~ anti"


W -a me-: .,' charge ''''' ..
Inspector Ranscombe, In
charge of the central office OF New
Yurk's police department, gave the
prisoner before him a second and more
searching glance.
The prisoner Strengthened his well
formed shoulders as he returned b
glance. He stood with a pair of thin
and soiled hands clasped before him.
There was a CLINT of steel at the wrists,
the sleeves of his coat only partly hid
ing the manacles that shamed him.
His clothes we're those of a boy from
tna country, and he wore them awk-
wardly in the bright, sunny room of
the chief of the city's detectives, where
everything was spick and span and the
uniforms of the office staff as trim and
fresh as though just from the depart
ucnt's tailoring contractor.

century mark, short and at times bru-

"Guilty?"
Montgomery shook his head as his
lips trembled and the denial of guilt re-
fused to leave them.

Montgomery's head was swimming.
and his heart going like a trip hammer
when he was showed into a prison van
with the Others aud taken to the Jeffer-
son Market police court in the lower
west side to be arraigned.
AS dismal as was the interior of the
i'll lighted courtroom. the first glimpse
of the black robed magistrate brought
a feeling of relief to Montgomery. He
was in a court of justice. an institution
designed for people in the very plight
in which he found himself. The inno-
cent would here find protection. and
the guilty would receive punishment
The courts were as much for the peo-
pie as for the police, he thought.
AS the line of prisoners edged along
in front of the magistrates desk he
began to frame the words he would
say in his own behalf. Surely he
would be given a chance to declare his
innocence
At last it came his turn. He stepped
upon the little elevation known as the
bridge and looked over the edge Of
the magistrates desk. The magistrate
did not look at the prisoner, but gave
all his attention to a document placed
before him by a clerk at his right
hand. He signed 1t and gave it to De-
tective Kearney. who held fast to the
sleeve OF the accused. The policeman
on duty at the bridge pulled back the
prisoner. and K%earney started off
through the crowd with him. In his
right hand the detective held the .dOcu-
ment committing Montgomery to the
Tombs to await an investigation of the
charge against him and an indictment
by the grand jury.
Within a half hour from the time he
stepped upon the bridge with his pro-
test of innocence ready on his lips
James Montgomery was in a cell in
murderers' row in the Tombs.

SO and the two took him, horn and all,
out to the good roads meeting. He
thought he was going for q short ride
but no stop was made until the Swcgle

Students of the junior class of vii.

presented Percy Maekaye's four.aet
comedy, "The Canterbury Pilgrims, "
at tho Grand opera house, under the
direction of Professor Wallace Mac.
Murray, and closed one of the finest
May day programs ever given at VIII
lamotte university. The time of this
play was on and after April 16, 1887,
and the quaint medieval characters
made the production seem like a page
cut out of the old English histories.
1t was peculiarly interesting to stu
dents of English literature as it visu
allied in degree the men and women
who thronged the pages of Geoffrey
Chaueer's Canterbury Tales. ="
Act one opened in the late after
noon at the Tabard Inn at Southwark
near Lonodn. 1t is filled with pilgrims
on their way to Canterbury to visit
tho shrines there. Among the party
is Geoffrey Chaucer. the English poet
laureate, and the first great writer of
English verse. Ch1ueer has become
enamored with demure nun, also
travelling to Canterbury, but he falls
