CHAPT Err III.
In the Train.

|
| Discussion was inevitable on the
way up to town next morning. The
two strange friends, planted opposite
each other in the first-class smoker,
travelled inland simultaneously en-
crossed in a copious report of the
previous days proceedings at the coro-
ner's court.
The medical evidence was valuable
only as tracing the fatal blow to some
such weapon as the missing trun-
cheon; the buffers evidence explained
! that the dinner-hour was seven thirty;
that, not five minutes before, he had
seen mis- master come downstairs and
enter the library, where, at seven fifty
| five, on going to ask if he had heard
| the gong, he had obtained no answer
but found the door locked on the in
side; that he had then fastened round
| by the garden, and in through the
French window, to discover the de-
ceased gentleman lying in his blood.
The head gardener, who lived in the
lodge, had sworn to having seen a
| bare-headed man rush past his win
dows and out of the gates about the
same hour, as he knew by the sound
ing of the gong up at the house; they
often heard it at the lodge, in warm
weather when the windows were open,
and the gardener swore that he him
self had heard it on this occasion.
The footman appeared to have been
less positive as to the time of tele-
/ phone call he had answered, thought
1t was between four and five, but re-
membered the conversation very we'll.
| The gentleman had asked whether Mr..
Craven was at home, had been told
that he was out motoring, asked when
he would be back, told he couldn't say,
but before dinner some time, and what
name should be given, whereupon the
gentleman had rung of without an
swering. The footman thought he was
a gentleman, from the way he spoke.
But apparently the police had not yet
succeeded in tracing the call.
is it a difficult thing to do?" asked
Cazalet, touching on this last point
early in the discussion, which even he
showed no wish to avoid this morning.
He had dropped his paper, to find that
Toye had already dropped his. and
was gazing at the flying English fields

AGAINST FREE LIGHT
MINOcQUA RESIDENTS OBJECT
TO CURRENT FURNISHED FREE
Municipal Plant Bridges Gap Between
Church and State and Some Who
Pray Don't Pay.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS municipal
electric light plant has developed a
novel addition to the list of vagaries
and abuses pFacticed when such util-
tiles are under POLITICAL management.
1t is charged, in a formal complaint
to the Wisconsin railroad commission,
that the Minocqua light plant has
bridged the gap between church and
state by supplying churches and par
fsonages with light current free of cost.
Free, that is, to the churches and par
sonages. Taxpayers foot the bills,
whether members of the congregation
or not.
Among the other items in the COM
plaint-filed by taxpayers praying for
relief from. the railroad commission
are these:
"Flat rates are allowed to favored
customers contrary to schedule.
Meters not installed in some build,
ings using current; other meters out
of order; meters read by an unbonded
employe of the town who also makes
collections and keeps no books of &C
count
Money collected is paid to the town
chairman, who refuses to turn it over
to the town treasurer.
Accounts against consumers not col
lected regularly; many are months in
arrears.
"The town of Minocqua, which owns
the plant, is paid nothing for current
used by street lamps and schools in
the village of Minocqua.
mo system of accounting is in use
and frequent transfers of funds are
made to the electric light fund from
other town funds, so that nobody
knows what the light plant has actual
ly cost nor whether it is or is not
earning its own way"

The Costly Elevator.

Elevator or vertical travel for the
average multistory factory, floor to
floor, is seldom over 10 feet, yet IN
traversing that distance, together with
starting, stopping, and with the same
loading and unloading time, We can
travel in the same time an equivalent
distance of 100 feet horizontally. One
factory manager, of an inQuiring turn
of mind, estimated in his particular
plant that the cost of elevator service,
wages of operator, power, repairs and
time consumed by men using the ele-
vators. amounted to about per cent
