James Gilbert were enjoying their din
ner and - the deer season was on and
. uilstomach generally induces con-

seasons with trophies galore. beheld
the buck, and in his excitement to get

the floor.
The negro picked up the boy. tied
him to q chair and made hurried
search Of the room. Then after warn
ing the people he assaulted not to make
move in the next few minutes on
penalty Of death, and with one parting
glance around at his bloody handiwork,
the negro departed through the window

before the authorities were notified of
the crime, and then the wheels were
set in motion to catch the fugitive. He

With no police at Nestoria, the op-
orator called upon Sam McGregor, q
hunter and trapper at Nestoria. to
help him keep the man there until the
sheriff arrived. As McGregor entered
the waiting-room about midnight. the
negro had shoes off and was starting
to put them on again. Telling the ne
gro not to take the trouble on his shoes
as he was under arrest, McGregor
picked them up, and turned around to
hand them to the baggage-master. As
soon as he turned, the negro drew his
revolver, shotting twice at McGregor's
back, and as the trApper turned around
and whipped out his revolver, he re-
