Harber's second arrest came about
when he appeared in Fort Collins and
demanded the arrest OF his wife, charg-
ing that she had deserted him and
had gone to live with another man.
The woman was arrested on a charge
or disorderly conduct. Harber was
then informed that he, too, was under
arrest and was placed in Jail to await
action by the distric, attorney.
July OF this year. seven years to
day after the killing of Allen, the
Fort Collins police learned that Har-
Der was living In Lincoln, Neb., and
wcrd was sent to the Lincoln police
asking them to arrest him. Harber
disappeared and all trace of the sus-
pect was lost until he came to Fort
Collins in quest of his wife.
After the killing of Allen seven
years ago, Harber and two other men
were arrested and held for investiga-
tion. Harber was released and later
re-arrested and held as witness. The
Fort Collins police failed to connect
Harber and the two other men with
the crime, and all were released. Har-
Der left Fort Collins and later the
police came upon information that
again led to suspect Harber. and a

powerful waves that may be sent out
by passing ships or by other wireless
stations. The control waves are sent
out by an ordinary wireless station Of
rather low power, while the waves
are received at the fog gun by four
short aerials. The electric impulses
then pass through a special form of
coherer to a relay which is very SEN

was finer than the spirit OF the French
