"he says you carried him in there, and
dinged II you won't have to carry him
vut, for not a step will he takew
At this unexpected development a
burst Of laughter swellcd into roar.
After that mighty merriment, Bill was
as safe as babe. Twenty volunteers
pressed forward to carry the wedding
guest from his cell. And when the old
man slowly but proudly followed Will
fred and LahOma to the hotel where
certain preparations were to be made
particularly as touching Bills per-
sonal appearance-the town of Man
gum began gathering at the newly
erected church whittier they had been
invited
When the four friends-for Mizzoo
Joined them--drove up to the church
door in the only carriage available.
Bill descended stiff1y, his eyes gleam'
ing fiercely from under snowy locks,
as If daring any one to ask him Ques-
tion about Brick. But nobody did.
The general suspicion that Bill At
kins knew more about Brick Wilcox
than he had revealed, was not without
foundation; though the extent Of his
knowledge was more limited than the
town supposed. Bill had carried to his
friend-hidden in the crevice in the
mountain top-the news of Red Kim
balls death; since then, they had not
seen each other.
Skulking along wooded gullies by
day, creeping down into the cove at
night, Wilcox had uncOnsciOusly re-
verted to the habits of thought and ac-
ton belonging to the time Of his out
lawry. He was again, in spirit. Il high
wayman. though his hostility was
directed only against those seeking to
bring him to justice. The softening
influence Of the years spent with La
homa was no longer apparent in his
shifting bloodshot eyes. his crouching
shoulders. his furtive hand ever ready
to snatch the weapon from conceal
ment This sinister aspect Of wildness,
intensified by struggling whiskers and
uncombed locks, gave to his giant form
kinship to the huge grotesquely shap
ed rocks among which he had made
his den.
He heard of Red Kimball's death
with bitter disappointment. He had
hoped to encounter his former chief,
to grapple with him, to hurl him. per-
haps. from the precipice overlooking
Bills former home. If in his fall
Kimball. with arms wound about his
waist. had dragged him down to the
same death. what matter? Though his
enemy was now no more. the sheriff
held the warrant for his arrest--as If
the dead man could still strike mortal
blow. The sheriff might be overcome

per calling for his arrcst-nn arrest

NE day." LAhOma resumed,
Brick saw white man
with some Indians standing
near that grave. He couldn't
imagine what they meant to do. so he
hid. thinking them after him. Years
afterward Red Feather explained why
they came that evening to the pile Of
stones. The white man was Mr.. Gled-
ware. After Red Kimbalrs gang cap
tured the wagon train Mr.. Gledware
escaped, married Red Feathers daugh-
ter and lived with the Indians. He'd
married Immediately to save his life
and the tribe suspected he meant to
leave Indian Territory ut the first
chance. Mr.. Gledware, great coward,
was terrified night and day lest the
ruspicions of the Indians might finally
cost him his life.
1T wasn't ten days after the massa-
ere Of the emigrants till he decided to
give proof of good faith. Too great
coward to try to get away and caring
too much for his wife's rich lands to
want to leave. he told about the pearl
and onyx pin. He said he wanted to
give it to Red Flower. A pretty good
Indian Red Feather was-t,ue friend
Of mine. He wouldn't rob graves! But
he said he'd take Mr.. Gledware to the
place, and If he got that pin they'd all
know he meant to live among them
forever. That's why the band was
standing there when Brick Wilcox
looked from the mountain top. Mr..
Gledware dug up the body after the
Indians had rolled away the stones,
the body of his wife-my mother-the
body whose face Brick Willock
wouldn't look at in its helplessness Ut
death. Mr.. Gledware is the principal
witness against Brick. Ii you don't
feel what kind of man he is from what
I've said nobody could explain it to
you"
From several Of the intent listeners
burst involuntary denunciations of
Gledware, while on the faces of others
showed a momentary gleam of horror.
Red Kimballs confederate spoke
loudly, harshly, But who killed Red
Kimball and his pard and the stage
driver if it wasn't Brick Willock:''
II think it was Red Feathers band.
I'm witness to the fact that Kimball
agreed to bring Mr.. Gledware the pearl
and onyx pin on condition that Mr.
Gledware appear against Brick. After
Mr. Gledware deserted Red Flower. OF
rather, after her death. Red Feather
carried that pin about him. Mr.. Gled
ware knew he'd never give it up alive
He was always afraid the Indian wOult

LEADERS OF IRISH
REVOLT ARE EXECUTED
president" Pearse and Three Others
Face Firing Squad-Many Others
to Follow.

London, May 5.-Four heads OF the
Republic of Ireland" including PRO
visional President" Patrick H. Pearse,
were tried by court-martial and exc
cuted on Wednesday. Their trials
were swift and secret.
The three others executed were
James Connolly, "commandant gener-
al of the Irish republican army"
Thomas j. Clarke and Thomas Mac
Donagh. All four were signatories OF
the republican proclamation issued at
the outset of the uprising in Dublin.
Three other signers of the proclama-
ton were convicted and sentenced to
three years Imprisonment.
Premier Asquith announced in par
lament that Sir Roger Easement
would be tried with the utmost expe-
dition.
The trials and executions became
known to the public through an an
nouncement in the commons by Pre-
mier Asquith. At the same time there
was also made public an official dis
patch from Dublin telling of the pro-
gram for the trial there Of the lesser
rebels captured. They will be tried
by a field general court-martial under
the defense of the realm act.
Pearse was one of the best known
of the Irish intellectuals. His father
was English, but his mother Irish. He
was the headmaster of ST. Edna's Sec
ondary school, which he started for
Irish boys to train them to seek the
best in Celtic traditions. He was born
in Dublin 35 years ago and was I'M
married.
The most notable of the number aft
er Pearse and Connolly is Thomas
MacDonagh. who is called the poet OF
rebellion.

The action of the British authorities
in ordering the release of the seized
passengers on the China was not UNI

given by the foreign office for their de-

The formal document in reply to the

not yet in readiness, but according to
Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war,
it will be carefully framed so as not to

the case are similar to those of the

not known what attitude the British
reply will adopt toward this argument,

with a declination, sent a second
note.

that the 3S men were concerned in
