choose to ring down the curtain Of

the soil Of the Browns. A voice
was calling. She heard 1t haz'

fear, before 1t became a cheerful, clar'
ion cry that seemed to be repeating
a message that had already been spo
ken without her understanding 1t.
Hes safe, safe. safe, Miss Galland!
He was not hit! He is on his way
back and ought to be here very soon =
She heard herself saying Thank
you'll" But that was not for some time.
The aide was already gone. He had
had his thanks in the effect OF the
news, which made him think that a
chief of staff should not receive con-
gratulations for victory alone.
Lanny would return through the
garden. She remained leaning against
the wagon body. still faint from hap
piness, waiting for him. She was
drawing deeper and longer breaths
that were velvety with the glow OF
sunshine. A fame, the fame that
Lanny had desired, Of many gentle yet
passionate tongues, leaping hither and
thither in glad freedom, was in pos
session of her being. When his figure
appeared out of the darkness the
flame swept her to her feet and to-
ward him. Though he might reject
her he should know that she loved
him; this glad thing, after all the
shame she had endured, she could
confess triumphantly.
But she stopped short under the
whip Of conscience. Where was her
courage? Where her sense Of duty?
What right had she. who had played
such horrible part, to think Of self?
There were other sweethearts with
lovers alive who might be dead on the
morrow II war continued. The flame
sank to a live coal in her secret heart.
Another passion possessed her as she
seized Lanstron's hand in both her
own.
"Lanny, listen! Not the sound Of

war began! Oh, the blessed silence!
It's peace. peace-isnt 1t to be

desires to arrange q series of base
ball games with Ely. the first series
to be staged in this neck of the woods
on Decoration day, and that the final
mixups be played in the silver camp

was one of the live wires at the last
session, and won himself undying
fame through a bill that he spon-
sored satirizing freak legislation,

ating the rights of farm laborers

who deoamped two days previous for
parts unknown after he had taken
Cabe's wagon. horse belonging to
Bate brothers. and had charged
|s27.5O worth Of groceries to Gabels
account In one Of the McGilI stores.
Roberts had been living with Gabel
for several months on his homestead
near the smelter town.
The fugitive would probably have
been permitted to go on his way un-
molested, IL Bate brothers had not
reported the loss of their horse to
the police officers, and suspected the
missing man of the crime. Gabel ap-
|resred to be inactive as far as maxi
ing any efforts to apprehend the ac-
lcused criminal was concerned.
Roberts kept under cover after
making successful getaway. and
spent the first night at Gallagher
gap. The local officers were keeping
|him under surveillance. and waited
for favorable opportunity to grab
lthe object of their search.
The accused managed to elude
capture until he had reached point
in Steptoe valley about thirty miles
from McGill. He offered no resist
ance when taken into custody by
Sheriff Grain. and was lodged in the
county Jail Friday afternoon A
charge of grand larceny will be pre-
ferred against the defendant in the
justice court tomorrow morning.

1t fs the contention of those who
desire to appear IS sand to the oily
track of desires of the man they are
fighting that Roberts received 5000
from Andy Stnson. a republican. who
was successful in his campaign for
inspector of mines. the financial re-
ward being due to support afforded
him in this county.
Let the anvils ring. Let the ham,
mers beat. Another afidavft that
has been sent to Washington contains
the allegation that Roberts sent a
bill for $50 to George A. Whiteley,
who was defeated for district attor-
ney at the last election. Whiteley
was the republican candidate for that
position.
The opponents of Roberts assert
that he got himself in Dutch with
the administration at Washington
because he advised certain people to
vote for Samuel Platt for United
States senator. His enemies have
been keeping the wires hot with tele-
grams to Newlands and Pittman. and
even Roberts political stunts have
been called to the attention of tht
postmaster general.
Latest Information from Washing
ton is to the effect that the selection
|of postmaster at the mines will be
deferred until an investigation as to
the charges preferred against Rob-
erts can be investigated by the two
representatives from Nevada in the
upper house. Even in these piping
times of peace we can look forward
to some awful warfare.

Williams had lost his way on the

His agonized soul had called out for
assistance time and time again but
here was no one to hear. The des-

doomed to sorrowful end.
He wondered whether his bones
would lie bleaching on the sands in
ghostly whiteness with numerous
others who had fallen by the way in
