they get Carlson back to Kenosha you
will see how quickly he viii retract
that statement. +"
At one other time, however, he indi-
Gated that he expected to go over the
road" soon. A half dozen young la
dies were in the cell room to see him.
You want to take a good look now, y
he told them jovially. ct won't be

Told His Life Story.
There were very few questions that
failed to get an answer out of the
prisoner. He willingly told reporter
of his life of crime, going back to the
first time that he was arrested.
81 was a boy ten years old when
they first picked me up, " he said. "The
detectives caught me with little %
revolver and | was hailed up before
the judge. He gave me nice lecture
on how dangerous weapon it was and
turned me loose. Then 1 finished gram
mar school, but 1 kept getting more
training in doing jobs"
He told how he had later taken up
engineering at Armour Institute and
studied electrical wiring in a CORE
spondence school. 81 worked a while
at it, !" he said, "but 1 couldn t get
away from the lure of adventure and
went back to the old life. Then 1 went
to Joliet, escaped, and tried it all over
again
Caught by Little Things
Every time" he said, sit has been
the little things that caught me-" He
explained that in this instance the fact
that he had two guns had fastened sus-
picion on him in spite Of the fact that
he was working every day and was
staying in every evening. "I kept
away from the pool rooms and all but
| never thought those guns would be a
give-away," he declared. "Then I
would have been alright at that if in
q casual remark had not said that /
knew man in Chicago. The dicks
sent my picture to Chicago and of
course they knew me there
Meets the Cowboy Preacher.
One of the most interesting episodes
of the entire afternoon for Loveday
came shortly after three O'Clock when
ne was visited by R. R. WINNER, the
cowboy preacher. The latter asked per
mission to talk to Loveday and Officer
Kautenberg, who was on guard, grant
ed it.
"Loveday, I'm the cowboy preach
er,' said the westerner. ct thought il
,wouldn It do any harm to suggest tc
you to About Face and start serving
God with the same energy that you
have been serving Satan. There il
still some happiness in life for you il
you take that way"
Loveday did not object at all to be-
ing "preached to-" "There may be
something in what he told me-" said
Loveday as the Wyoming sky pilot left
the Jail, and then he started to talk
about some other incident Of his career
of crime.
Objected to Mere Watchers
Loveday did not object to the people
who came and talked to him. He
showed his nervousness, however, when
some came and silently looked at him
without making any remarks.
"Let them ask me questions,'' he
said. "I'll answer them blindfolded. .
In spite of the predicament he is in
Winny" has not entirely lost his
sense Of humor. This was evidenced
when he was talking to bevy of High
School girls who came in to take one
look at him. "My," said Loveday
IN getting SO popular here that I IN
going to cut the buttons off my clothes
and sell them for souvenirs. -
There were times, however, when he
would drop back into that haunted
nervous state which he exhibited Sc
clearly when he first reached Kenosha
on Friday night when he appears to
have realized that he may have come
to the end of the road.
