NJ. Jonquelle looked the Marquis
steadily in the face.
The agent of the Surete neglected
to mention to monsieur an item or

on the slip of paper had been made
with the left hand; and the con-

the robbery was not the first time
that the Marquis had left the door
Enclosed; a week before, he had left
it Enclosed in the afternoon. 1t was
then that thism an had gone in
taking with him a slip of paper from
the basement-broke open the Mar
quise's desk and searched for the
combination, which he finally found
and wrote down. The search had
required a very long time, and he
had not time on this day to open the
safe. He had taken the paper with
him and waited until this night on
which the Marquis had again gone
out, leaving the door Unmatched.
Then he had opened the safe and
removed the necklace. He thought
that in putting the necklace into his
pocket he must have pulled the slip
Of paper out, and by this means it
had fallen to the floor where the
Marquis had picked it up.
THE man made no defense and
waived all legal procedure. He con-
tossed and has been sentenced to a

fused to say what he had done with

M. JOnquelle, watching the Mar
quls, took a box of cigarets out of
his pocket and slipped his thumb
nail around the stamp, but he did
not open the box. He spoke sudden

voice was sharp, clear, and its tones
arrested the mans attention.

Begin Here Today.

Seated in the opera box of the
Marquis de Chanelle, impoverished
husband of wealthy American wo-
man, NJ. Jonquelle, greatest detec-
tive in France, is discussing the mys-
terry of the theft Of the diamond
necklace Of the Marquise.
Before them, on the stage, is the
beautiful Nine. Zirtenzoff, idol Of
Paris. Before entering the Mardtis'
box, NJ. Jonquclle halted an usher
who was leaving and managed to Sc
cure for a moment a bouquet Of or
chids which the Marquis was send
ing to the singer.
NJ. Jonquellc reviews the theories
Of the theft. The Marquis had aug-
gosted the theories which led 20 the
arrest and confession Of Jean Lcz
quex. Lequex was sentenced but
DID not tell where the jewels could
be found.
at was my assistant Forncau who
followed your theories NJ. JON

his robbery had been committed by
some one Of the hotel thieves of Par
is, who were accustomed to enter any
Huilding which they were able TO
get into, and to search any apart
mcnt that they happened to find
OPEN" continued NJ. Jonquelle.
But the Marquis reminded For
roau that the person committing
this robbery had brought with him a
piece of paper from the basement,
that mere thieves entering on the
chance Of finding some valuables
would not have taken this precau-
ton.
''This theory pleased Forneau, and
he adopted every excellent sugges-
ton which the Marquis was able 10
make. But he ventu"ed to wonder
from what source the thief had been
able to obtain the combination to
the safe, since it was known only
to Nine. la Marquisa.
THE Marquis was again able to
indicates a valuable suggestion.
Women, he ventured, to suggest, had
always the same habits. They did
not trust their memories for any
thing that required an accuracy Of
numbers. The Marquise would have
somewhere this memorandum writ
ten down, lie suggested that For
neau make a search of her writing
table.

ecutive to function in such a manner as not to
incur the displeasure of certain interests. Gov
ernor Dixon, in assuming the office, became the
governor of all the people, and has set himself
to h~ing about better conditions for all the peo-
pie of the state.
Should a legislature be elected this fall, willing
to support and pass the legislation the governor
desires, the whole of the people of the state
will be benefited. Taxes will be distributed in an
equitable manner, so that each citizen will pay
his just share and no more. Governor Dixon does
not wish to bring any discomfort to any corpora
ton or large financial interest in this state. He

them from carrying their fair share of the bur-

IF WINTER COMES.

If it SHOWS this winter, as it has done nearly
every winter in the memory of the oldest inhabi-
tants, and if the mercury drops to 80 degrees
above, Bozeman will begin to thing about skating.
Last winter, for the first time in the city's history,
these thoughts crystalized into action and a first
class skating rink was constructed. Winter is a
long way off, and yet it is now a good time to start
thinking and preparing for the sport of the season.
The hundreds of people who used the ice rink
near the college last year are a strong argument
for the continuation of the rink this coming WIN
ter. There are, however, a number of citizens
who feel that the matter should not stop there.
Other cities in the nOrthwest-Billings for exam
ple-support a swimming pool in the summer, and
convert it into an ice ring in the winter, and many
in Bozeman think that the same thing could be
done here.
Finances are, of course, a thing to be consid-
cred, but if properly handled there is no reason
in the world why such a venture should not pay
expenses. Ever since the Y. M. C. A. has estab-
lished its community night, at which time both
men ard women in the community are welcomed
at the poo, the tank has been crowded, and has
proved TO be lar too small to supply the demands
which have been placed upon it. Tourists who
flock through in hundreds, are more than anxious
to pay a small fee to get good bathing facilities.
The college student body alone would support a
good ice rink.
Bozeman needs a place to swim and skate and
the two birds could be killed with the same pro-
verbal stone.

SCIENTIST HAS MACHINE.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The
"sphygomanomeser," OF "lie detect
or" which Justice Mccoy refused to
admit as, credible witness in the trial
Of James Frye for murder, continues
to hold interest in capital legal cir
cles. Most recent of its proponents
is DR.. E. E. budding, head of the
Prisoners Relief Society, who has
submitted himself to its tests in an
endeavor to obtain wwhat he terms
"tardy Justice for himself. DR.. Dud-
ding was convicted and sentenced for
manslaughter a number of years ago.,
served his time, and since then he has
devoted himself to the aid and relief
of released prisoners.
At his request, DR.. William Mars
ton, professor of legal psychology at
American University, and Paul E.
.Ha6Ick, secretary of the American
Psychological Society, conducted the
test. The instrument is similar to
that which physicians use for testing
blood pressure, but has an especially
sensitive needle upon a recording dial,
which fluctuates with any change in
blood pressure. 1t is explained that
fear, anger, and pain cause the needle
to jump and that no man tells q lie
the outcome of which concerns him,
without experiencing fear. AS nei-
ther anger nor pain enters into an
examination of a witness in court, the
jumping Of the needle when a ques-
tion is answered is held to indicate
fear, and therefore lack of truth.
DR.. budding was put through q
gruell.ng examination as to the al.
legged crime for which he was convict
ed and sentenced, his inquisitors do
ing all in their power to confuse anC
trip him. At no time did the needle
jump up, indicting, so the experst
said, that his answers were invariably
truthful.

REPUBLICANS START CAMPAIGN.

Last Thursday evening over a hundred good,
loyal Republicans sat down to a dinner at the
Bozeman hotel, and after partaking of a fine
meal, enjoyed an evening of speaking, such as has
not been heard in Bozeman for many years. 1t
was a most pleasing gathering, with party men
from every section of the county in attendance,
all of whom expressed extreme satisfaction at
having been present.
The outstanding feature of the meeting was
the pronounced approval given to the sentiment
expressed by the speakers. Lieutenant Govern
or Nelson Story, Jr, as the first speaker, eX-
pressed the feelings of every one present, when
he stated the Republican candidates would defeat
the opponents as thoroughly at the election this
fall, as those present had cleaned their plates.
The spirit of cheerful optimism and confidence of
success in the coming election for the Republican
party, not only in the county, but over the state,
as expressed by Mr.. Story was most pronounced.
Judge E. K. Cheadle gave an address filled with
sound logic, carrying in it a message of patriotic
loyalty that will long be member as one of
the greatest speeches ever heard in the city. His
discussion of the national, as well as state af-
fairs brought to his hearers the Importance of
the great reconstruction work which has devolved
upon the present national administration He
briefly touched upon the remarkable work done
w OO1S1COo l1OOl C1C p4OOOuG 4AA1l4Ao IoOAOh, anu
praised President Harding for good judgment.
Discussing state affairs, Judge Cheadle told of
the changes in conditions in Montana during the
past 30 years. He called attention to the efforts
being made by Governor Dixon to secure legisla-
ton that will be beneficial to the state. His men
ton of Governor Dixon and his hard struggle to
give Montana a business-like administration was
met with hearty applause. The sentiment of
those lending the meeting was decidedly favor

is effort being mad throughout the state by
certain forces, to discredit the governor, he is
growing stronger as each day passes.
Governor Dixon is receiving the unfair and
unjust abuse and criticism of those who oppose
any mo ement for lettering condition for the
whole people of Montana. 1t has always been SO
