A Bribe

A Bribe
Although there was decision In
tbe voice Of the man sitting be-
fore me, had an intuition that
nothing was impossible if one went
at it right.
Right there was born in my mind
an inclination to do wrong. Those
pictures must be gotten.
"Do you mean that a picture has
never been lost from that gallery y
| inquired. "There must be millions
by this time"
mot as many as that, madame,
but there are thousands"
"And are you sure that you have
every one that has ever been TAX
en- ="
The man smiled. Among so many
I expect, one might find that few
have been mislaid."
"Wll you see within the next
few days if the pictures that l have
been inquiring about are still
there"
Quietly I laid a 500 bill on the
table beside him and, as | looked
him straight in the eye, remark
ed, ST know your time is valuable
and it may take day or two to
find those pictures as they were
taken nearly four years ago"

ton employed me on the case and
[ always believed the girl inno-
cent. 1t is disgrace to think that
such a thing can hang over her"
Calmly the man folded the note
in his bill-book, as he said: 81 will
let you know about it in few
days"
AS left the office I wondered
if the man would return those pic
lures to me or if he would just tell
me that they had been destroyed.
1 felt I could trust him to fix it
some way for me.

pale and worn, met me at the door.
Did you get themf" was her anxious
query.
''No, dear. You did not expect me
to bring them home with me, did
your 1 was told it would be impos-
sible to get them at all, my dear"
Sheila sank down on the sofa with
groan. ''What will we do now7 !
fear Susanne Jones will try to get
them. At least she will never rest
until she has directed Phil to
them"
was sure that Sheila was right.
There was reason Susanne was in
that neighborhood. wondered if
there was another detective in the
building. Wouldn't it be. strange
thing if Fate had directed her to the
same man to whom I had goneR
Fortunately Phil came in at that
moment.
There was kind of triumph in
his eyes that / had never seen be-
fore but as he Immediately told us
that he had been engaged upon one
of the biggest corporation cases
that had ever come up in the courts,
l decided that that was what made
him so happy.
t"Com sweetheart, let's go down to
the shore for a moment before din
ner. l want to tell it all over to
you again. Unless do so every
little while it will just seem a
dream"
"Thank God" I said to myself as
they passed out of the doorway.
"Whatever comes to Sheila this hap
piness cannot be taken from her"
As usual my thought went trav-
cling back to Blake and almost un-
consciously my lips formed those
fearful yet courageous words of Mrs.
Browning's;

EILEEN PERCY, COMING

At the Liberty theatre the chief at
traction Friday and Saturday is
"Hickville to Broadway a William
Fox production in which the star is
beautiful Eileen Percy. The star we
know-and always enjoy. The photo
play, an original by Carl Harbaugh,
who is also the director, is described
as a sentimental comedy of village
and city life. The story opens in the
former and moves to the latter. 1t
treats of a young girls conspiracy
with friends to try out the moral
quality of her village fiance by fol-
lowing him, incog., to the White Light
section of Broadway when. he visits
that alluring thoroughfare for the
first time.
William Scott, well known here, is
Miss Percy's leading man, and also

Judge

There are no methods by which
justice should be averted except the
methods prescribed by law. The
poor midnight thief who steals
ham to support his hungry child is
often caught and punished while the
man who steals a railroad is made
its president. These apparent injus-
tees come because of the doctrine
that public opinion must be consulted
before law is enforced.
Whether the man be plumbei or
preacher, whether he be banker or
butcher. whether he be the head of
labor organization or the president
of capitalistic trust, if he violates
the law, dehes this government
Aaunts his infanv in the face Of the
Constitution he ought to be put in
the penitentiary and fed on bread
and water until he confesses his
wrong, pays his penalty to society
and is willing to kiss the flag every
day the rest of his life.
Law is supreme and should be
enforced.

ORIENTA FARMER
INJURED IN RUNAWAY
Was Driving Home From the
County Fair When the Ac-
cident Occurred.

Charley Laakso, a farmer reSld-
ing in the town of Orienta, is at the
General Hospital in Ashland, where
he is under care following an opera
ton for a broken knee cap. Mr..
Laakso and his daughter came into
: the County fair last Thursday after
noon. He had a high spirited colt
that he could not trust in a place
where there was much traffic, so he
drove it to within a mile of the fair
grounds and left the horse and rig
there and walked the rest of the way.
On their return home the, colt be-
came frightened and ran away,
smashing the buggy and throwing
the occupants out. Mr.. Laakso tried
to hold onto the lines and was drag
ged for some distance, when the
horse kicked him on the right knee,
the blow breaking the knee cap. Jos.
Miesbauer came along shortly after
the accident and brought the injur-
ed man here where he was given
medical attention and sent on to the
Ashland hospital for an operation.
Albin Nichola took him over in an
auto.
