SELECT TREES WITH CARE
Matter Worth Great Consideration by
the One Who Is Planning a
Real Home.

Now that the process of tree NOV
ing is so successful, it is a simple
matter to annex and preserve as ones
own specimens of the numerous beau
t:ful trees which the countryside
dweller is apt to run across in his
woodland rambles.
Do not make the mistake, however,
of thinking that any kind of a tree
can be planted in any place; selec-
lions need to be made with intelli-
gence and due regard to drainage and
soil.
The cver-changing beauty of the
mountain maple makes it an unusu-
ally satisfactory tree for ornamental
planting. The branches in winter are
beautiful in coloring, as in spring are
the buds and blossoms, followed IN
summer by the developing fruits.
The wild plum tree, too, has posi-
bilities which too many people fail to
recognize. The blossoms of this tree
are the nearest we get to the cherry
blossom display of the Japanese, and
although their beauty endures for only
a brief season, the trees are especially
desirable when planted along rocker
les or along walls.

such a noise with their instruments

Who Shot
Col. Garrett?

H. M. EGBERT


Copyright, 1916. by W. G.. Chapman)
"Mr. Heard, you must save John
Thornton's life. He is Innocent"
| looked at the young woman who
stood before me in my office, her
hands clasped, the tears streaming
down her cheeks. My first thought
was that it is just such scamps as
Thornton who find such women as
Janet Clifford to believe in them.
My second was a desire to help her
in any way that was possible. But
the murder of old Colonel Garrett had
stirred the blood of everyone, and
threats Of lynching had been openly
made.
The verdict had been rendered
within fifteen minutes of the jury's re-
tirement, and the case seemed to
have been proved to the hilt. Thomas
Garrett had been the wealthiest man
for miles around. He had been a
slave-owner before the war, and he
had saved enough out of the wreck
to enable him to amass a huge fortune
when electric traction anne and ere
ated riches for the far-sighted.
John Thornton, CARROTS nephew
had been a scapegrace. His uncle
after repeated admonitions, had final
ly ordered the young man out of his
house; he had cut him out of hi
will, leaving all his property to Ellis
Tomlinson, another nephew. THAI
had been two years before.

30 HELPS
GOOD APARTMENTS, LOW RENT
Experiment Undertaken at Des
Moines, la, Asserted 10 Be a
Complete Success.

A practical demonstration to prove
that individual apartments with mod
ern plumbing. sanitary convenienccs,
and absolute privacy for each family,
can be built to rent for from IS to
$3.50 per month and yet yield a rea-
sonable profit to the builder, was mace
a short time g at Des Moines, la.
The Octavia Hill association, which
has already won n in solving
housing problems, has worked out the
! plan to the smallest detail and is
( building the model houses. Forty-five
families were provided for in the first
block now under construction.
The houses, which are of red brick,
are simply finished with sufficient
trimming to keep them from being Sc
verely plain. One important feature
of the property is the provision for
the children. About 5000 square feet
of ground in the center of the block
will be used for a playground. The
rent collectors are trained society
workers and will volunteer to start
the playground activities.
The investment will reach nearly
$50 900, which is represented by cap
ital stock and a mortgage which pays
A per cent a year. The investment
will yield a gross income of 1913 per
ZEN per year, after deducting taxes,
insurance, water rents, cost of collec-
ton of rents, social work, d~eprecia'
ton, etc, of 81 per cent.
The Des Moines venture is a test
case to prove hat the %unsanitary and
bad housing conditions which prevail
for the l~ow-salaried w~orkingmen are
crfminally unnecessary. 1t is yoic'
ing an unanswerable protest against
the crowded tenement, the dilapidated
and unsanitary house which is virtu'
ally the only kind offered to the man
who must pay less than SIS q month
rental.
The association now owns or man
ages 353 dwellings, housing $500 PEG
pie, and has never failed to pay fouI
per cent a year to it's stockholders.

tion shown me by the girls manner.
/ promised to try, and that was all
l could promise. The chance of
saving the young man from the chair
seemed enthusiastically small.
1t was proved at the trial that
Thornton had suddenly come home to
plead for forgiveness. There had
been an angry interview between him
and his uncle. The negro butler,
Washington, was emphatic on this
point, and added that he had heard
the nephew threaten the old man
An hour later a shot had been heard.
Washington, who occupied a rebuilt
cabin seven hundred yards from the
house, had III out, and had encoun-
tered Ellis in the library, and they
found Garrett dying from a bullet
wound in the throat. The colonel
lived just long enough to say that he
was sure Thornton was his murderer.
However, under examination the
negro admitted that the colonel had
not seen the man who shot him.
Thornton was arrested the same
night in the lodging house where he
was staying. Now came a series of
damning facts which clinched the stu
alton in the opinion of all reasoning
minds.
The cabin occupied by the negro
was seven hundred yards from the
house. Behind it was a clump of
dense trees, a little to one side of the
compact little building. A bee line
from the library window, grazing the
cabin wall, led to a large oak tree,
eight hundred yards from where Gar
by clamps against the side of the oak
tree was a rifle, trained upon the col
onel's house. 1t was immovable, and
was so well concealed in the under
brush that 1t had been discovered
only by the merest accident. Ellis
Tomlinson had found it.
Ellis gave testimony at the trial to
the fact that when they were boys he
and his cousin had played in the
grove and had made Investigations
into the ballistic properties of small
arms. The Judge and jury adjourned
to the spot, a bullet was inserted In
the rife, and, when discharged, 1t
hardly varied by two inches in it's
course from the fight presumably
made by the ball that killed Garrett.
What further evidence was needed?
The Jury found Thornton guilty--and
here stood Janet Clifford, telling me
that her lover was a wronged man,
and that the guilty man was Ellis.
l started upon my investigation
with a heavy heart, but l knew that
women do possess a certain instinct
in such matters. and, while / could

had known Ellis Tomlinson was a
man of unworthy character. ! had al
ways distrusted him and the influence
which he had over his uncle. My in.
vestigations proved the following
facts to be true:
First, there had been a quarrel be
tween Ellis and the Colonel ON the
afternoon after Thornton's return,
This was sworn to by a little colored
boy, in CARROTS employ, who had
overheard the high words, and the
Colonei's threat to disinherit Ellis.
The boy also said that. far from hav,

CRIMINAL ALWAYS IN CHAINS
First Act of Deceit Invariably Must Be
Followed Up by a Succession
or Lies.

s strange characteristic OF crock,
e3ness vas brought out by the young
man who confessed to a long string
OF ~forgaries. committed in various els
les. His logical story gave a strik-
ing explanation for the wrong doing
which brought him to disgrace at the
prime of life.
His first forgery, done at the insti-
CATION OF a superior, was not intend
ed to bring him any benefit, and it
did not. AS the tool of another's Grim
inality he was trapped. Instead of
facing the consequences he fled. His
guilt was on his heels and he was
compelled repeatedly to Jump from
city to city. A forged check each
time supplied him with the means.
In graphic fashion the sequence Of
results was laid bare by the prisoner,
relieved when he was al last over
taken. What happened to him hap
takes liberties with his own Q n
science. The smallest deceit is a cost
~ expedient, because it must be fol-
lowed up with a succession of lies in
many instances. The man who de-
parts from his own code finds that he
is being pushed on in a course of
wrongdoing in spite Of himself. Part
ly through habit, partly through the
law of cause and eject, n slip ne
~cessitates another and another until
disaster is complete.
The momentum Of deyiltry is a diff
cult force to combat.
