upon him. He raced madly ahead.
They were almost upon him. He
could see the glimmer of the light in
his window at home. He could feel
their hot breath on the seat of his
pants. They were almost upon him.
His breath was coming in great hus-
ky sobs. In fact, he was painting.
They were almost upon him. Suddenly
as they were about to seize him in the
rear he was seized in the think-pan
with bright idea. Hastily he pulled
the cork from the jug. Feverishly
his mouth and its mouth came into
justaposition (close proximity. One
heaped-up mouthful he took. To spur
IN his tagging strength No, no! Lis
ten! Now, because you're always rum
ming ahead in your mind and jumping
at conclusions, just like our wife does,
you're thinking that then the man spit
he hootch on the ground, and it ex-
oloded, and blew the wolves to hell.
You're wrong And while you've been
wasting this time with all these de-
luctions and making us contradict
you, the wolves~have been gaining all
the time They're almost upon him,
But he's got the hootch in his mouth.
Swallowing as he turns, he thrusts
his infIamed face close to theirs. Close
enough so he can see the greed In
heir eyes, the SLAYER dripping from
heir fanged jaws, the sure death that
must be his lot if his plan miscar-
les or his aim is at fault. Then he
opens his mouth wide, just at the re-
lex of his pants (spasmodic breath)
and with all his remaining strength
le impels his breath right into their
faces.
Three of the wolves dropped dead
n their tracks Four died within an
lour. The rest were only slightly
yassed and lived to escape over the
boundary into Mohave county, where
they are el1ing out their invalid lives,
only awaiting surcease from their
earthly misery through the kindly in
tent of some hunter with gun.
Gee, after all that suspense, we
could use a swig out of that Jug Of

thing left in it; which, if he is any
thing like any of our friends here In
Flagstaff, there amt.

BY PRISONER
Young Woman Says She Will
Wait for Convict

Although he was sentenced to serve
from ten to twenty years in the state
penitentiary, his sweetheart still
loves him, and his criminal record
makes no difference to her. He is
still her own "Jack."
This is the case of Jack Roselle
of Illinois. convicted highway rob-
ber, who has one of the worst records
of any man at the state penitentiary.
His girl, whose name state officials
refuse to disclose, swears to be true
to him for the length of his term.
says, II still love him."
Jacks criminal record goes back
to army days in the World War. In
an alteration, he killed fellow
soldier and court-martial board
sentenced him to from 10 to Is years
in the federal penitentiary at Leav-
enworth. He was pardoned after hav-
ing served q short time.
Since then he has been convicted
in various states for variety of Of
fenses. The term he is serving now
is the stiffest sentence he has ever
received.
While in Chicago. several months
ago he met q girl and became her
friend. It was agreed that they would
be married, when the state Of North
Dakota interfered with their plans.
Ten or twenty years is long time
to wait, but Jacks sweetheart doesn't
care. She always thought he had an
honest occupation and his criminal
record was not known to her, she
says.

Twenty-Five representative citi-

o'clock tonight in the Association Of
Commerce rooms to develop plans
to re-check the census figures with
NJ. H. Atkinson, city auditor, and
w. A. Falconer, city assessor, after
they have finished taking the CEN
sus. Mr.. Atkinson and Mr.. Falconer
have been to every dwelling in Bis
marck and are now going back over
the city, calling at homes where they
found no one at home on their first
call
Members of the Association of
Commerce are anxious that every
person who makes Bismarck his home
be counted this year. They believe
that many men, especially travelling
saleomen, vote here and have their
residences here, but have been miss
ed by the census takers. It was
found that a large number of per-
sons who reside here were not listed
in the census taken five years ago.
The public is asked to aid the As
sociation of Commerce in re-check-
ing the census and any one who
knows of persons missed by the CEN
sus takers are asked to make a re-
port to the Association.
