there came that sharp snap as of
lock. He looked about the room, and
then took seat at the table. The
movement of chair on the floor was
heard. He sat moment as if wait

opened again, and a second man en-
tered. Once more swept through the
courtroom breeze of astonishment as
his large, almost heavy features became
unmistakably apparent.
Then new thing happened. Out
of the darkness sprang voice, voice
that had not been heard at that trial
before, as the man at the table was seen
to rise and extend his hand to the new
conner.
@How do YOU do, Alderman said
the voice, coming as if from the moving
lips in the picture.
Hello, Flannery,' came the reply,

the trial had become simple persecu-
ton by the combined powers of the
court and the prosecutor.
BUT for all that the prosecution
against the Alderman did not seem
to prosper from the first. 1t did not
seem to fulfil the promises made for it
beforehand. This was from factors in
herent in the nature of the case itself.
1t seemed to depend too much upon
circumstantial evidence of an involved
and not conclusively corroborated sort
to turn the tide of public opinion
against the man they believed in. Even
his enemies admitted that they felt dis
appointed in the case when it came to
the cold, logical test of court procedure

that the Alderman would be charged
with many acts of corruption, the at

RENO. New, Oct. 24.-There is a bitter
fight throughout the State to dethrone
Senator Newlands. His opponents charge
that he has long been disloyal to Nevada

three candidates: Mr. Roberts, the pres
ent Incumbent Republican l.. u. Fowler,

likewise three candidates, each one with u

cumbent. Senator Sewlands. has been
renominated by the Democrats. Samuel
