BEMIS REPRESENTS CITY IN GAS
ADVERTISEMENT /.

NIT nHI0GmENI
The city council gas committee has
chosen Prof. Edw. Bemis to represent
the city as public utility expert in the
inventory and appraisement the Peo-
pies Gas Light and Coke Co. is going
to make of itself.
Prof. Bemis is the one man whom
the gas company said would not be
acceptable to them in this work By
appointing Bemis, the committee has
told Sam insult that he cannot pick
the representative of the city in this
case, as it is accused he has done in
past issues between the city and his
gas company.
Prof. Bemis and DR.. Milo Maltby,
New York, were the only two gas en-
gineer experts in America whom the
gas committee wanted to take a
chance with.
"The big gas companies of the
country have subsidized every en-
gineer who is of any WORTH said
Donald Richberg, attorney for the
city in the gas rate case.
Railway and public utilities COM
missioners in all parts of the coun-
try to whom the gas committee wrote
for advice in choosing representa-
tive declared that it was almost i'm
possible to get a gas engineer who
could play fair with the city. They
said that if gas engineer did repre-
sent the city squarely that he would
be put on a national blacklist by the
big gas companies and his career
would be ruined.
Prof. Bemis rendered a report on
the gas question in 1911. Because
this report seemed to insult to favor
the city, he made every effort to dis
credit it.

CHAPTER x.
The Blind Priest HaIts.


Very haltingly and slowly he came
across the open, his long stick tap
tapping his way among the loose rocks
Of the stream crossing; then up the
hill slowly, as some wounded animal
might crawl.
In the Mexican camp silence had
again fallen. Save for few sporadic
shots and shrill yell or two, the
place lay quiet in the red-hot glare.
Between the house and the alfalfa
fields few lone prairie dogs perched
atop their burrows, basking in the sun.
glare
"I wonder what he wants" re-
marked Kynaston. There's been ne
gotiations enough between us and that
bunch of hell-cats yonder to end war.
Look at him, Wilkes
AYE, I'm lookin'. I'm wonderin' If
it'd be lick or miss to plug him. too.
Wouldn't hurt none at that, reckon"
He fingered his rifle suggestively,
but desisted when Kynaston shook his
head.
"Look! He's found the bodies"
The old padre paused abruptly as his
stick struck soft flesh. They saw him
kneel and reverently make the sign
of the cross. Then, rising, he hurried
haltingly toward the house.
"Senores-senores' they heard him
cry. "Por lamor de Dios-do no more
violence! l bring you news"
What news, ciego (bllnd one)?
Where is Senor Upton?"
"Muerto (dead), senor."
The padre threw wide mis- hands.
They saw his face working.
1T was wicked, senior! It was wick.
ed beyond words. But vengeance is
Gods. I am old, senores, who was
once young, and I tell you with the
psalmist, Never saw / the godly man
forsaken nor the seed of the righteous
begging his bread Seek not to hurry
Gods justice. It has leaden feer,e but
it comes surely"
II only hope it pleases him to send
it by my hand" growled Wilkes. What
is your news, padre? Speak quickly,
for my trigger finger itches, if you
did but know it."
Shoot, then, if it pleases thee. As
we'll die by thy bullet as work out my
life slowly like a pack-mule in the
terra caliente Of the south. Is that
woman's sobbing, senores?"
1T is the senorita, she whose father
was killed by the brandy-sodden fend
yonder. What is it to thee%
81 would speak with her. After ALL
senores, am priest-a blind one, it
is true; but can still see we'll enough
to point out to the unfortunate the only
true path to peace"
Dorothy and Mrs. Fame came for
ward, the girl still weeping but striv-
ing pluckily to repress her feeling.
"Thou art welcome, father" she said
in the vernacular. "It is a house of
grief thou contest to, but thou art well
come-doubly so for thy calling"
The old priest gently raised his hand
with all the authority of two thousand
years in his gesture: peace be to this
house and to all the inhabitants there
of. will not trespass long, my daugh-
ter. go south again with my mission
unfulflled."

When one enters the Pan-American
union building after ascending marble
steps on either side of which are fOun-

him and enters the tropics. There Is
a beautiful patio in the center of the

patio or courtyard is filled with ex-

me and execute him, anyway. Have
you no sense of honor-not even a
mestizo'S?"
Stunned by the very audacity of the
man, who defied him even when know
ing full well what tortures lay in store
for the presumptuous, General Obispo
stared open-mouthed at Upton, listen
ing without offering word in answer.
But when the miner told him he was
a double-dealer, and-what was worse
proved it, he came to life.
"My word is sacred; not even a
gringo can impugn my honor!" he
yelled. The paradox would have been
funny had it not been so serious.
Obispo arose, his face twitching, his
body positively shaking with anger.
"Here, put a bullet in him some
body!" he roared, pointing at Upton.
Taking advantage Of the diversion,
Kynaston drew back, shaking off his
guards But in moment they seized
him by the elbows and threw him
bodily out of the door. Upton, his
fingers clenching and unclenching con-
vulsively, stood eying the furious half
breed, while Dorothy laid restrain
ing hand upon her fathers arm.
Before he could even respond to the
loving pressure of her fingers group
of angry men rushed through the open
door and threw her forcibly back
against the wall.
She fell to her knees. Staggering
again to her feet, she was aware, as
one in a dream, of a hideous, fury
distorted face thrust within a foot OF
her fathers scornful countenance; OF
a dozen dirty, evil-smelling peon sol
diers hanging to Upton as ants hang
to a dying hornet.
Then came a sharp crack and spit
of flame. She saw her father stagger
back, sink, helplessly to his knees, and
sag forward on his face in the center
of the maddened group.
A bare five seconds she stood there.
Then the full meaning of the scene
enacted under her eyes dawned upon
her.
She was about to scream, but a hand
upon her lips mercifully stifled it. A
strong arm drew her back through the
Cpen door, and she heard, still as if in
o dream, a voice she had learned to
Know and love. Kynaston was speak
ing brokenly:
STEADY, Miss Dorothy! I know!
My heaven, If I could only have fore
seen this! Come quickly and make no
noise. Use your breath only for run
ming" \
