people thought.
Even the gypsies had cleared out,
vanishing mysteriously before the beat
ers Of the man hunt.
The first flush Of excitement soon
died down. The men lost their inter-
est. 1t wasn't life-and-death matter
with them whether they caught Torsten
| or not. It didn't make so much differ
ence. In fact. their feelings more or
less switched the other way. Jenny
| heard them on two or three occasions
declaring that TorSten Aberg would not
get caught now. He'd made good his
escape. It shocked her at first to see
how unimportant it all was in the eyes
of the men. But 1t gave her quietude
in her own feelings. for which she was
grateful.
The swamp had strange fascina-
ton. She could never free herself from
the hope that If she fingered around it
the bushes would open and Torsten
would appear Like some blessed mir
acle. She could not keep away from
it. She stepped down and pulled some
branches aside. They swished back
as she passed. She parted more
branches and they closed after her
path. She found an old rotting log
and sat there to rest. Forlorn, her chin
in her hands. Then, as If called, she
got up and went on.

ATTY. UPSON BOOKED
 ON SIDEWALK CHARGE
Reported for Failure to Clear Of Ice and
 Snow

Notified that he was liable for a fine of 32 for failure to comply with the city ordinance relative to re- m0val of snow and ice from side walks, Attorney Arthur w. Upson called at the police station this aft ernoon and told Captain Kelly that tho walks in front of his property were properly cleaned last Sunday afternoon. Captain Kelly told him Oficer James N. McCue had re- ported that the walk was not prop erly cleaned and unless the attorney chose to % to court he would be assessed the fine. Attorney Upson said he would not pay because he was certain his walk had been cleaned, 50 Captain Kelly booked him for court.
 Attorney Upson said later that he will confer with Officer McCue to- night relative to the matter, as he believes there is . mistake which can be rectified. The sidewalks around his home at the corner of Shuttle Meadow and Corbin avenues were shoveled by the attorney about 5 p. m. Sunday, according to his claim. and the streets named in the warrant are Cartilage street and Shuttle Meadow avenue. Attorney Cpson said he knows of no Car lidge" street and he believed the of ficer meant Harding street, where the sidewalk in front of one piece of property was not shoveled. but he does not own the place. he said.
 Asked what action he intends to take in case the officer insists that the condition of his sidewalk was not proper within the meaning of the ordinance. Attorney Upson said he would place the facts before the police court
