however, was not satisfied with this
version of the affair and secured the
services of a Pennsylvania state pO-
lice, who finally unraveled the details
of the tragedy and caused the arrest
Of the four lads, who have confessed
the crime.
The four defendants range in age
from eleven to fifteen years. In re-
spOnse to questions from friends and
officers as to why they committed the
act, the boys always have replied that
they do not know.
Crime Of Unusual Features.
According to evidence in the case,
the Hall boy left his home on the af-

tom, to bring In the cows. AS he was
passing an abandoned barn the Row.
an, Markley and Stark boys rushed out
and captured him. He was taken in
side, where two of the lads held him
while the other two placed tie rope
about the victims neck. Then they
hanged him to rafter and allowed
the body to hang for about five min

youths dressed the body in old cloth

And she was expecting him! She
had had an Impression" that he
would come TO her as soon as his In
terview with me was over. and she
was not taken unawares.
The wild-eyed Swedish maid admit
ted him, showing him into the recep-
tion room and asking him to wait, as
her mistress was "giving a reading"
A moment later Mrs. DelariO came In
cooliy and asked to be excused-she
had a sitter and could not possibly see
monsieur this evening. OF course there
was no sitter In the seance room, but
a muff and a boa on the chair beside
him conveyed the impression that
there was a caller.
Monsieur played his surprise card
instantly. Sayint he would detain her
but a moment he sprung 1t on her that
had told him she had the diamonds
and he had come to apologize for the
unfortunate mistake" that had been
made. and to arrange to get the stones
"as soon as convenient"
1t was bold move; but Billy and
had taught him one thing-everything
now depended on diplomacy, and If
she denied having the stones he could
do nothing.
1t was also bold lie-telling her I
had said she had told me; but he
failed to trip her even there: she says
she "knew before the words were out
Of his mouth that 1t was a lie-that
lie appeared in large white letters
over his head"
"YOu must excuse me this evening
have a sitter in the next ROOM" she
said quietly. and showed him she
would not talk.

Snakes Friends Of Farmer.

A correspondent who is interested
In snakes as well as flowers and birds
and the other more popular things in
nature writes that he has gratifying
success in locating snakes by merely
listening for their rustling in the dry
leaves. II ones ears are specially
trained for snake noises there is no
good reason why this method should
not be really practical. Unquestionably
the majority Of wood wanderers are
almost blind. in this matter Of snakes.
Unless we almost step on him we sell
dom know that he is lurking near at
hand and remaining very still in the
hope that he will not be noted. All
our snakes are practically defense}ess.
They are not only inoffensive and tim
i'd creatures, but also highly useful
friends of the farmer. Possibly the
baby snakes are in less danger than
the adults. The little fellows are less
conspicuous, and az before noted, they
can hide in very small refugees.
