The Cameo Brooch.

in from the bar and seated himself In
utter silence opposite his employer;
but 1t was only for moment before
Crewe directed the bartender 10 bring
him bis coat and hat, and also small
package wrapped in tissue paper from
the middle drawer behind the bar.
He had devoted merely me swift
glance upon 1t when Sindahr gave II
up so reluctantly, to assure himself
that the juggler had not attempted
one of his tricks! now he removed
the tissue wrapping and put the won
derful cameo down upon the table
and for more than minute sit quite
still, lost in admiration of the exQui
site and wonderful carving.
And Christy passed around the ia.

chair to observe 1t also.
do you realize, boy, that this
brooch is almost priceless in value?'
Crewe remarked at last, without rails
ing his eyes. This is one of six ar
ticles that disappeared from the home
of Richard Delorme tonight; but this
one cameo, II offered to a collector
such as Mr.. Morgan was, would have
brought a price greater than the sum
of all the others.

Vienna Onyx-with the difference
that the original is nine by eight
inches while this one is five by four.
Still 1t is a replica in all save size,
done by the same hand. The cary
ing, my boy, represents the corona
ton Of the Emperor Augustus. No
wonder Sindahr could, not resist It."
He wrapped 1t again in the tissue
paper and slowed it away Yin one of
his pockets.
"Your last remark reminds me of
something that ! wished to say to
you." Christy replied with an entire
absence of the slang he was accus-
toned to using. "Sindahr will kill

"sindahr, alias Count Sucini, I am
everywhere"
Crewe motioned to him to begone,
and stood and watched him until he
was nearly to Sixth avenue; then,
with something like a sigh and a
shrug, of his shoulders, he started
swiftly away.
He knew that he had been followed
a great many times by frequenters of
his cafe and by shadows" from the
detective bureau when he left his
place late at night. One class was as
eager as the other to discover what
haunts this man of mystery frequent
ed at such times.
They suspected that he maintained
a home elsewhere than above his re-
sort, and the police were not more
eager to discover its location than
were the crooks themselves.
But he had many and devious
methods of avoiding the would-be
shadowers, and had always success
fully eluded them. Nevertheless, he
had never reckoned upon man Of
exactly the caliber and type of Lieu
tenant Philip Muchmore.
For Muchmore was and is an eff
fcient officer-a detective by instinct.
But for his fiery temper which in
cessantly got the better of his judy
ment, he would have been great long
before now. In his calm moments he
reasoned logically and was apt to hit
very closely to the bull's-eye in his
conclusions.
When Muchmore drove with Mr..
Delorme in his car to headquarters
earlier that night they had been turn
ed aside by an obstruction in the
street and so fate had willed that
they should be passing the rear door
of the tall studio building at the very
moment when the man with the blem-
ished face came out of 1t.
Muchmore, down at Crewe's, had
been subjected to calling down"
which he little relished.
He came away from the place In
such fury Of anger that even his
side-partner, Sam Bunting, could do
nothing with him, and after several
vain attempts to reason with him,
had given it up.
But the two stuck together, never
theless, and gradually the rage of the
lieutenant cooled and he became his
normal, courteous, gentlemanly self
again.
SAM" he said, "it is my opinion
that there is something doing be-
tween Crewe and that artist. Don't
ask me what it is, for I can't even
mentioned the name of Crewe at least
twice while he was at Delorme's to-
night.
"And it is a fact that I saw Crewe
coming out of the studio building
where Moreaux has his studio only
short time after Moreaux must have
arrived there himself. And Crew
had key to the nameless street door.
Now none but blue-stocking tenants
are allowed key to building like
that"
"Well, what's the answer" Bunt-
ing inquired
This: Crewe was there, waiting
for Moreaux. Crewe could have de-
parted by the Blank street door with
out key, and it was so late that
there would have been no danger in
doing so. But, Moreaux must have
given Crewe his key to the rear door,
and therefore, don't you see? Nor
eaux expects Crewe to return there
again tonight. Anyhow, that's my
bunch, and am going up there"
Crewe approached the studio build
ing in due time after his parting with
Sindahr. The street called Nameless
seemed deserted when he turned into

JOE STANLEY AT
 CHATAUQUA TONIGHT
The Cavaliers on the Last Day the Big Musical Attraction of the Week. Mott Sawyer Lee ture Friday Afternoon.

The largest crowd of the week greet ed the Pastime party at the Chautau- qua last night. The tent was packed and many found it necessary to stand up at the back. Every one of the six girls in this company was talented and they were called upon time after tune to respond to encores.
 The program this afternoon was given by the McCord Trio and the var lety of their program pleased all who heard them. You will be given anoth- CT opportunity to hear some of their catchy songs tonight when they will give the prelude for the program.
 Every one in Prescott should take advantage of the opportunity offered tonight to hear the famous Chautau- qua lecturer Joe Hanley. If you are feeling blue come out and he will make new man of you. Every place this man has appeared in the last six years are anxious for a return date and you will miss one of the best treats of the week if you do not hear Hanley. His lecture will start at S:15 following the musical prelude of the McCord Trio.
 Friday is the last day of our Chau- tauqua and the big musical attraction is saved for that day The Caviliers Is party composed of four men and three women and they will send you home from Chautauqua on the last night with the true Chautauqua spirit. The program for tomorrow afternoon is to be opened by this talented com pany and then Mott Sawyer will de- liver lecture that makes you say ''I myself have found that to be true.'
 The people of Prescott want Chau- tauqua for the season of 1916. To ob- tain it it is necessary that number of our people get behind the move ment. Other towns that have a Chau- taNqua have all the way from fifty to a hundred signers for the next year and why not have that many in Pres colt? If you will do your part and not leave it all to the other fellow we can have the biggest Chautauqua Pres colt has ever known next year.

COMMUNITY SWINE BREEDING

Now that there is more than usual interest in the growing of hogs it will be well for farmers to consider the advantages in each community keeping to one breed. It is unwise for one farmer in a neighborhood to have Poland Chinas, another Berk- shires and another Durcos. In this way they can get better breeding stock and they can develop high standard in this way. The same is true of cat tie and all live stock. That "Commu- nity Breeding" should be the watch word is the recommendation of the Extension Division of the University.

Little Rock, Sept. 2.-Gov. Hays Wednesday afternoon pardoned J. H.

One of the petitioners said that he was convinced Cunningham knew nothing of the financial condition of the bank at the time he took hold of it.
 The governor pardoned Herman Hess, of Logan county, convicted at the August term of court, of running a lottery device and fined $50. The pardon is upon condition that all the costs be paid

DON'T SELL WHEAT STRAW

Poor soils mean poor crops, rich sOIs mean rich crops, why not take advantage of every opportunity to make the soil better. Do not sell the wheat straw off the place but instead use it to help save the liquid manure which is in reality the most valuable manure on the place. Use the wheat straw literally for bedding the farm stock. This practice has been found practical by the College of Agriculture in taking care of its horses, cattle, and hogs. When sufficient straw is used and the supply is added to at frequent intervals, it not only protects the stock from filth, but saves the li- Qud manure which ordinarily is lost from the place. It is established that wheat straw used in this way is worth & ton, while if baled and put on the market it can seldom be sold for more than $2.30 ton. Use plenty of wheat straw for bedding, protect the stock, save the manure, apply it on the farm, make the soil better, get bigger crops and feed more livestock.

Boston News Bureau.
 In the high tide of Americas pros perity following the Civil War, that veteran stammering Wall Street oper ator, the famous Bill Travers, wended his way on an Eastern journey with his nephew, William Travers Jerome, later the District Attorney for New York. Of course, all the way Travers kept posted upon quotations. When admiring the beautiful Pompeii he re- ceived dispatch that Pacific Mail, then paying $5 per share quarterly. had fallen to the par of 100 from above 200.
 Great God!" exclaimed Travers to Jerome, what are the ruins of Pom peii compared with Pacific Mail?"
 What would be the expression of Travers if he could today arise from the tomb and behold Pacific Mail in the boom-tide of international shipping, wrecked by the politicians in Wash ington, and their last ships under the American flag offered for sale to the Chinese and the receivershipped h. ternational Mercantile Marine?

MARKETING OUR PEACHES
X Government Study of the Supply
 And Distribution in 1914.

Washington, Sept 2.-The peach crop of the country will amount this year, it is estimated to more than fifty-eight million bushels. With the application of more scientific methods the crop has increased greatly in re- cent years and the peach grower is now confronted with problems of marketing rather than of production. Owing to their perishable nature peaches are usually difficult to dispose of without loss, and goood distribution is essential to prevent the glutting of some markets while scarcity and high prices prevail elsewhere.
 In order to facilitate proper distri- button the United States Department of Agriculture has just published the results of study of the movement of the peach crop in 1914. Georgia it is found, ships practically double the amount of any other state, 4,SO3 car loads coming from there in 1914. Cali folnia, Washington, Ohio Michigan and Colorado follow with shipments of between two and three thousand cars. The other states bring the to- tai to thirty thousand carloads.
 In handling this vast crop there IS no uniformity in packing or grading. A change in this respect would, 1t IS said. result in higher level of prices for high-grade fruit can almost al ways be disposed of Another recom- mendation is that dealers in the small Ter towns cooperate in buying peach es by the carload and in pushing their sale.
 The publication already mentioned Bulletin No. 29S, contains in addition to statistics on the movement of the crop, map showing the peach areas and a graphic calendar showing the duration of the shipping season in each state.

outrage which may be expected to call
forth pretty loud protest. Farmers

Right Of Self Govern

If the right Of self government,
