consul at Leghorn? / am anxious for
that, in order that we may commence
inquiries in London"
"The day after tomorrow, I hope.
He will certainly reply at once, pro-
viding the dead mans father can still
be found"
At that moment tall, thin man, who
proved to be Detective Campbell, en-
tered, and five minutes later we were
all three driving over the uneven cob
bles of Dumfries and out in the dark
ness towards Rannoch. When we
reached the wood we all descended
and, with Mackenzie and Campbell
carrying lanterns, walked on carefully
keeping straight on in the direction Of
the glen, and hating every now and
then to listen for the ripping of the
stream.
At last, after some difficulty, we dis
covered it, and searching along the
bank with our three powerful light, l
presently detected the huge moss
grown bowlder whereon l had stood
when the pair of fugitives had disap-
peared.
Look" cried. There's the spot!"
And quickly we clambered down the
steep bank, lowering ourselves by the
branches of the trees until we came
to the water into which / waded, be-
ing followed closely by my two COM
panions.
On gaining the opposite side clam
bered up to the base of the bowlder and
lowered my lantern to reveal to them
the gruesome evidence Of the second
crime, but the next instant cried:
"Why! It's gone!"
"Gone!" gasped the two men.
eyes. 1t was here. Look! this is the
hole where they buried it! But they
evidently returned, and finding it ex-
humed. they've retaken possession of
it and carried it away"
AS we stood there dumfounded at
the disappearance of the body. the
Highlander's quick glance caught
something, and STOPPING he picked it
up and examined the little object by
the aid of his lantern.
Within his palm / saw lying tiny
enameled in red, while in the center
was circular miniature of a kneeling
saint, an elegant and beautifully exc
cuted little trinket which might have
adorned lady's bracelet.
This is pretty little thing!" re-
AZ
bly, lead us to something. But Mr..
Gregg" he added, turning to me, ARE
you quite certain you left the body
here?"
"Certain?" echoed. why, look at
the hole / made. You don't think
have any interest in leading you here
on fools errand. do ycl?'"
'sNot at all" he said apologetically.
"Only the whole affair seems so very
inconceivable-I mean that the men,
having once got rid of the evidence of
their crime, would hardly return to the
spot and reobtain possession of it."
Unless they watched me exhume it,
and feared the consequences If it fell
into your hands," / suggested.
"Of course they might have watched
you from behind the trees, and when
you had gone they came and carried
it away somewhere else," he remarked
obviously; but even If they did. it
must be in this wood. They would
never risk carrying body very far,
and here Is surely the best place of
concealment in the whole country"
"The only thing remaining is to
search the wood at daylight" sug-
gested. IF the two men came back
here during my absence they may still
be on the watch in the vicinity"
'Most probably they are. We must
take every precaution." no said deci-
sively.

very careful to see that the lambs
and ewes take lots of exercise, and
do not care for shelter except from
winds and storms.
My chief difficulty has been with
stomach worms. 1 am now using to-
bacco dust with salt, which gives
good results. It is advisable not to
keep them on old pastures too long
at time.

THREE AUTOS HURT
IN ONE COLLISION
BLINDED BY SNOW, MACHINE
CRASHES DOWN HILL INTO
TWO OTHER CARS

Three automobiles in one smashup
is rather an unusual occurrence, but
that is exactly what happened yester'
day afternoon during the blizzard.
DR.. Cowden's automobile went dead
on him the day before short dis
tance beyond the Halifax and he had
to trudge to town. William Kelley
took the foundry car out yesterday
to tow DR.. Cowden's machine in and
he was progressing steadily with the
double load when he saw another ma
chine approaching.
1t was driven by Jack Berg, COM
ing in from Round Mountain. The
snow glazed his windshield so that
he did not see the other two cars
standing in the road until too late
to avoid an impact. He swerved just
second too late and rammed one Of
his lamps into the radiator OF the
foundry car, thrusting 1t back
against the Cowden car. smashing Its
radiator also. The damage Is moi
very heavy. but the coincidence Of
the triple accident. coupled with the
previous breakdown. is somewhat un
usual.

TROOPERS
PRESENT A PROBLEM
tBy Associated Press)


LONDON, March 2.-The petition
of the Eurasians, or half-castes Of
India, to raise some regiments of
their own kind has caused the war
office considerable uneasiness be
cause of the delicate social question
involved. Eurasians are in the un-
fortunate position of being neither
whites nor natives They are not ad-
mitted into white society as rule,
and are disliked or despised by the
natives of unmixed parentage. At the
same time they feel themselves su-
perior to the natives because of their
white blood
The whites and Eurasians could
get along very well together at the
front, but the imperial authorities
fear the Indian regiments would re-
sent the formation of a distinctly
Eurasian soldiery, and would besides
refuse to associate with them in
arms. The war office is now trying
to put the damper on the project
without offending the loyalty and the
sensibilities of an important element
of the Indian population.

sobs. he came to place where
little baby, but few hours old,
without particle Of covering. lay In
the snow. Gathering 1t tenderly In
his arms he conveyed 1t to warmth
and shelter. where nourishment was
given it and II was wrapped in warm
blankets.
The police and sheriff's office spent
the remainder of the night searching
in vain for the inhuman parent, but
were unsuccessful. meanwhile Clem
stayed on the job and by daylight
the piteous means had ceased and II
was sleeping peacefully. Clem's eyes
bedewed as he gazed down at his
helpless little ward, whom he had
rescued from certain death. He says:
"The poor little thing was all legs
and ears and voice. but could not
help but love it."
This afternoon a voice like that OF
Maud's sounded at the door insist

Glen grudgingly turned the little
burro over to its mother.
