FOURTEENTH STORY
The Irony Of Justice.

1t began on Hnllowccn-On the
night when Tom Morrisscy finished
his apprenticeship and received q
union card as full-nedgcd Journey
man printer. With the card he had
received Job in the big shop where
his apprenticeship had been served.
It was a splendid job. too, for q
boy Of twenty-a job that would scare
AWAY the DOGGY Of poverty which had
haunted Tom ever since the day. two
years earlier. when his father had
sdled. leaving his only son with Wild
owed mother and pretty sister to
support.
Tol. Morrissey was hurrying home
right gleefully, from the shop when.
rounding a corner. he came upon a
group Of boys who were dancing
around a Halloween bonfire. The
blaze roared mcrrily. The boys greet
ed with cheers each new member of
their group who arrived with an arm.
full of fresh fuel.
The cheers swelled to howl OF de-
light, as two young fellows ran to-
ward the fire from a side street, carry
ing between them n big wooden gate
they had dexterously lifted from its
place in front of some unguarded
house.
As the two gate stealers trotted for
ward and cast their burden on the fire,
Tom recognized one Of them us Henry
Rokeson, youth several years older
than himself-son Of the towns fore
most lawyer-politiclan.
Tom also saw what none of the bon
fre-builders at first noted. Namely,
that a policeman (who evidently had
watched the gate robbers from a dis.
tance) was running toward the merry
makers.
Before Tom could call a warning,
the policeman charged down upon the
lads. One of them yelled: "Beat itw
and the group melted as II by magic.
One Of them-Henry Rokeson-
dashed across the street toward the
invitingly open entrance to m alley.
As he ran past Tom, his toe caught
on the edge of the curb. and he
sprawled headlong.
Tom stocped to lift young Rokeson
to his feet. But the moments delay
had been enough for the policeman to
.overtake him. The hluecoat nnbbcd
Henry by the collar, shaking him into
submission. In the same movement he
seized Tom Morrissey.

the officer. "And II either Of you re-
sist, I'll pull my gun on you. 1 saw
the two Of you pinch that gate"
"You did not" denied Tom, indig-
uantly. "I'm just on my way from
the shop. I stopped here, second.

FORMALLY DEDICATE CONFEDERATE MEMORIAL
Stone Mountain. Near Atlanta. tO Be
 Converted Into Hall at Cost of $2,OOO.0O

Atlanta Ga., May 10.-Stone noun tain, the great granite pile near At ]anta which is to be converted into "a permanent memorial to the Confed- eracy, was formally dedicated to the cause today.
 Delegations representing the Unit ed Confederate Veterans, Daughters of the Confederacy and various affiliated societies, journeyed to the mountain, a distance of about 16 miles from this city, and with interesting ceremonies raised the Confederate colors over the huge eminence where the colos- sal memorial is to be carved Out of the solid granite face of the noun tain.
 Actual work on the memorial is to begin at any early date under the direction of Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor engaged for the task by the Stone Mountain Memorial association. On the face of the mountain, 5000 feet across and 1000 feet in height. will be depicted the story of the Host cause" in everlasting figures of gran ite
 The prospective plan is to trans form the solid stone in hall with columns hewn from the face of the mountain without any resort to the builders method of placing stone on stone.
 The facade will have three colossal figures, the central one being General Robert E. Lee, who will be flanked by "Stonewall" Jackson and Joseph Johnston. Two wings of an army in action will come from the east and the west, behind the two figures, making a splendid array of horse and foot soldiers.
 Many years of work and an estl- mated expenditure of not less than $2,OOo,00o will be required to com plete the project.
