BLOODY AXE TELLS
 TALE 0F MASSACRE
(By Review Leased Wire)

MINDEN, La, Dec 26.-The axe with which John Nelson Reeves, his wife and their two children are be- lieYed to have been murdered in their home near here, Christmas night, was found today by searchers about half a mile from the scene of the crime. It was covered with blood and matted hair. The sheriff and his deputies who searched the homes of some of the negroes held in jail as suspects, reported they had found bloody cloth ing therein. but the belief is strong here that a white man was involved in the crime. Nine negroes are being held in Jail as suspects.
 Minden is quiet and the sentiment here is that the law will be permitted te take its course.
 IL is said that Mrs. Reeves recently received $3,5OO in the settlement of an estate and this, with the $500 which her husband kept in the house. is supposed to have furnished the motive for the murders. None of the money has been found.

WALLACE REID AND
 CLEO RIDGLEY AT
 THE ROYAL THEATRE
Popular Lasky Stars Appear in Another Feature, "The House of the Golden Win dows" at Popular Theatre.

The appearance of Wallace Reid and Cleo Ridgley in a new feature is al ways a signal for pleasant anticipa- ton on the part of the public. These two stars will be seen in their fourth co-starring photoplay produced by the Lasky Company. entitled "The House of the Golden Windows" which ap- pears today at the Royal. It is a Paramount release.
 Preceding The House of the Golden Windows" is list of exceptional Reid and Ridgley features. To the motion picture public they are known as the -tWa-.R.s." The photoplays in which they have co-starred are "The Golden Chance" "The Love Mask" and "The Selfish Woman" They also appeared together in The Chorus Lady"
 ..Fhe House of the Golden Windows" contains a story quite different from what they have done before as there is delicate touch of fantasy inter wined with a plot of tense human emotion, love, excitement and happi- ness. It is what has come to be known as a picture of happiness in contrast to the sordid subjects of which there have been on the screen all too many. The photoplay also will mark the first appearance with these two stars, of Master Billy Jacobs who created such a favorable impression with Marie Doro in The Heart Of Nora Flynn" and Victor Moore in "The Clown"

CHAPTER VIII.
The Game Is On.

Contrary to expectation, the
case of the State of South Dakota
against Jesse Black was called
soon after the sitting of the court
Monday afternoon. No testimony
was introduced, however, until
the following day. Inch by inch,
step by stey, Gordon fought for
a fair jury through that tense aft
ernoon.
This impaneling of the jury
was not interesting to the crowd.
Many had no hint of its deeper
meaning. Others saw it in the
light of child's playa certain
braggadocio on the part of the
young lawyer. They wanted the

ination of witnesses. They came
and went restlessly, impatiently
waiting. Wiser heads than theirs
knew that the game was already
on in deadly earnest.

man." whispered Langford to

who knew the game was being

CHAPTER VII.

The sheriff and his party of
deputies made diligent search
for Williston for many days to
come. 1t was of no avail. He had
disappeared, and all trace with
him, as completely as If he had
been spirited away in the night
/, to another worid-body and soul.
That the soul of him had real
ly gone to another world came to
be generally believed-Mary held
no hope after the return of the
first expedition; but why could
they find no trace of his body?
After gallant and dauntless
search, which lasted through the
best days of September. Langford
was forced to let cold reason have
its way. He had thought. honest
ly. that the ruffians would not
dare commit murder. knowing
that they were being pursued;
but now he was forced to the
opinion that they had dared the
worst, after all
In the first dark days of his
new belief. he spoke to Gordon,
and the young lawyer had writ
ten second letter to the gal re-
porter" In response. she came at
once to Kemah and from thence
to the White homestead In the
Boss "own private" This time
the Boss did the driving himself.
Louise slipped into the sad life
at the Whites easily sweetly
adequately. Mary rallied under
her gentle ministrations. There
was-would ever be-a haunting
pathos in the dark eyes, but she
arose from her bed. grateful for
any kindness shown her, strong
in her determination not to be a
trouble to any one by giving way
to weak and unavailing tears.
Mary, because Of her abound
ing health, healed of her wound
rapidly. Langford took advan-
tage of the girls absorption IN
each others company to ride
often and at length on quests of
his own creation. With October,
Louise must join Judge Dale for
autumn term of court. He haunt
ed the hills. He was not looking
now for a living man; he was
seeking a cleverly concealed
grave.
Meanwhile Gordon had buckled
down for the big fight. He was
sadly handicapped, with the whole
prop of his testimony struck
from under him by Williston's
disappearance.
The Kemah county court con-
vened on a Tuesday, the second
week in December. The Judge
came with his court reporter to
Velpen on Monday.
There was a full calendar that
term, and the close of the first
week found the court still wrest-
ling with criminal cases, with that
of Jesse Black yet uncalled. Cor
don reckoned that Blacks trial
could not possibly be taken up
until Tuesday or Wednesday of
the following week. Long before
that, the town began filling up for
the big rustling case.
The judicial party was safely
housed in the hotel, with the best
service it was possible for the
management to give in this busy
season of congested patronage. 1t
was impossible to accommodate
the crowds. Even the office was
jammed with cots at night. Mary
Williston had come in from
Whites to be with Louise. She
was physically strong again, but
ever strangely quiet, always SOM
bre-eyed.
