about yore pap. heered thet Bud
spicer come by hynr yistiddy plumb
full Of liquor an lowed he'd seen
Jesse an Jim Asberry s-talkin' ter

He broke off abruptly. then added:
"Ye went away from hyar last night,
an didn't git in twell after sunup-I
Just heered the news. an come ter
look fer ye"
Air you-all lowin thet l shot them
shoots from the laureli" inquired Sam
son, quietly.
"Ef veal haint 1owin' hit, Sam
son. we're plumb shore thet Jesse
PurvyNs folks will low hit. They're
Jest a.holdin' yore life like hostage
fer Purvy's, anyhow Ef he dies they'll
try ter git ye."
The boy flashed challenge about
the group. which was now drawing
rein at Spicer South's yard fence. His
eyes were sullen, but he made no an
swer.
One OF the men who had listened in
silence now spoke:
in the fust place, Samson. we hain't
a-sayin' ye done hit. In the mex place.
ef ye did do hit we haint a.blamin'
ye-much. But reckon them dawgs
don't lie. an. ef they trails in hyar
yen need US. Thets why we've done
come"
The boy slipped down from his mule
and helped Lescott to dismount. He
deliberately unloaded the saddlebags
and kit and laid them on the top step
OF the stile. and, while he held his
peace. neither denying nor affirming,
his kinsmen sat their horses and
waited.
Even to Lescott II was palpable that
some of them believed the young heir
TO clap leadership responsible for the
shooting OF Jesse Purvy. and that
others believed him innocent. yet none
the less In danger Of the enemy's ven-
geance. But. regardless OF divided
opinion. all were alike ready to stand
at his back and all alike awaited his
hnal utterance.
Then. In the thickening gloom. Sam.
son turned at the foot Of the stile
and faced the gathering. He stood
rigid. and his eyes flashed with deep
passion. His hands. hanging at the
seams OF his Jeans breeches. cllncbed
and his voice came In n slow utter.
ance through which throbbed the ten.
sity OF a soul-absorbing bitterness.

U. S. TO AID FALL RIVER ROAD
Assistant Secretary Mather Writer
Governor Carlson Assuring Help
in Building Park Highway.

IN 0uIloIn9 FaTk F7I8nWdy.
Denver-The federal government
will Immediately make good its prom
ise to assist financially in the build.
Ing Of the Fall River road, connecting
the new Rocky Mountain National
Park with Grand Lake, according to
a letter received by Governor Carl
son from Stephen T. Maher, assistant
to Secretary Lane of the Department
Of the Interior.
Action on the part OF the state in
overcoming financial difficulties in or
der that the work might be pushed
this year is commended by the federal
official. He suggests that the national
government contract with the state
for the construction Of a specific
portion of the road.
Mather's letter to Governor Carlson
follows:
MY Dear GOVERNOR was much
pleased to find your telegram of May
13 awaiting me on my return from the
Pacific coast, advising that Colorado
is now prepared to go ahead with the
construction of the Fall River road.
/ will see that some plan is worked
out by which the department assists
the state to the extent of $2.500, as
previously promised. The best plan
for working this out may be for the
department to contract with the state
to construct a specific portion of the
road.
General Superintendent Daniels eX-
poets to be in Denver on Rocky Noun
tain Park business, and will go into
matters fully with you. He will rem
der you whatever assistance is in his
power.
81 hope you are able to proceed at
once without waiting for Mr.. Daniels
arrival, so that the work on the road
can be expedited as much as possible.
81 want to thank you personally for
the interest you have taken In this
matter. and your determination to see
that promises made by the previous
state authorities are made good This
kind of cooperation between state and
federal authorities augurs well for the
future of Colorado's new national
park"

though he did not give out anything
for publication, has message of woe
for some West Side athletes on his
present visit tc Chicago. So far no
plans for trades have been pushed
and Rogers is figuring on cutting his
roster through the release system.
Some of the people who have been
drawing salaries from the National
league club for some time will have
to look elsewhere next season for the
all-important pay check. This win
ter there will be no effort to cut down
on the roster of youngsters, but
many veterans will feel the ak.
Roger will return to his home in
Toledo tomorrow, and, unless some
thing unusual occurs, will not be
back here until December, when he
will go to National league meeting
in New York with President Thomas.
At that time an effort will be made
to put over trade or two and an
other attempt may be made to sign
Charley Herzog for the Cub troop.
The Army and Navy football game
in New York today will put period
to the gridiron sport for 1915. One
or two battles are still scheduled for
the far west, but they are unimpor-
tant post-season affairs.
On the strength so far displayed
this season the soldiers are favorites |
today and should repeat their sue
cess of the past two years. The Navy |
is weaker on both defense and at |
tack, though possessing good ma
terial.

Freddie Welsh and Charley White, is
in Chicago, armed with the necessary
documents and authority to sign
them. He says his club will not raise
the offer made Welsh.
Pitts seemed disappointed that
Harry Pollok, manager of the light
weight champion, was not here to
meet him. Evidently Pitts is not ia
miliar with the temperament of title
holders and those that surround
them.
Tom cowIer, Jim corbett's heavy

The Dodger Athletic club of Chi

With the coming of the winter
season a countrywide revival of
wrestling is on and making pretty
good progress. The revival started
with tournament in New York, then
spread to Chicago and Kansas City.
Other cities are threatened and in

There is a chance Frank Gotch can
be induced to defend his title. He is

Stecher is the young Nebraskan
