 Nate dug his, bare brown toes into the leaf mold and squirmed uneasily in his sheltered lookout under the low boughs of the noun tain pine. It was getting hot in here and the sun was fully three hours high in the bright blue sky. Nate must be getting on his way! But curiogity-and some other emotion-seemed to keep him chained to the spot.
 He was watching a strange wo- man do strange things to the cabin which had always been nome" to Nate. N0w-of. course-it could be home no longer. Not with that woman Pop had brought home last night, living therel
 Mates loyalty and bOyish sense of the fitness of things had been terribly affronted yesterday, when Pop had come downstairs clad in the store suit he'd bought for Maw's funeral year ago, and an- nounced to Nate that he-Pop- was going to Valleyburg and marry Matte Boone, the woman who kept the boarding house.
 True Pop had explained hesi- tantly, he'd known Matte ever since he and Nav and Matte had gone to school together; she was a wonderful cook, said Pop-and he felt that he and Nate needed a woman around the place. We'll, reflected Nate bitterly Pop could have this woman around the place if he wanted her! Nate was going to be loyal to his own Maw--poor little Nav who'd been sickly ever since Nate could re- member. but gentle and kind and uncomplaining.
 Last night, when Pop and his bride had come from town, Nate had crouched in the loft and 1is- tened to their voices. Pops happy and excited as (under Mattie's di- rection) he carried in bundle after bundle from the wagon, two new mattresses and boxes and boxes of home-canned fruit and vegetables which Matte had brought along. Nate knew what was in the bun- dies because Matte had called out the contents of each box and bum dle and suitcase as Pop brought them in.
 Nate had buried his head in the straw tick and ragged bedclothes which composed his bed in the loft to shut out the happy commotion below. He'd thought with dogged devotion about Maw-whom he couldn't remember without think ing "Poor Maw"-and determined that he, at least, wasn't going to accept this new woman.
 Early in the morning, before Pop and his bride wakened, Nate crept from the loft, went to the

SHERIFF DEAD
Thomas M. Farley, Figure in

Hospital.
Rn Tnifed Press

NEW YORK, April 3.-Thomas
M. Farley, As, former sheriff of
Manhattan, whose fabulous tin
box" repositor for funds featured
the Seabury investigation of New
York City graft. died today in a
New York hospital.
Farley, a spectacular figure in the
city investigation second only to
that of former Mayor James j.
Walker was removed from his post
by Franklin D. Roosevelt, then
Governor of New York, after start
ling revelations had been made as
TO his wealth.
Farley had insisted that his
wealth. amounting to several hun
dred thousand dollars, was kept in
a tin box at home, for convenience. "
His testimony at the Seabury in
vestigation led to his nickname,
Tin Box Tom"
you got your money out of your
tin box?" Judge Samuel Seabury
asked him repeatedly.
'Yes-out of my good tin box, my
wonderful tin box" Farley re-
torted.
The wonderful tin boxes" which
the politician admitted possessing
yielded a total of $36O,66O in seven
years, during which Farley's salary
in various public Offices before he
became sheriff ranged from $4,000
to $4,000.
He testified that at one time he
had 100000 in cash at home for
safekeeping.

Aside from the economy motive.
another reason for cutting off the
last afternoon business district de-
livery was cited by Mr.. Buchanan.
He said that in the past much i'm

from the east, which arrived here at
2:25 p. m, in time for the late aft
ernoon delivery. Effective yeSter-
day. this train was taken off, he
said, and the mail it formerly car
ried now does not reach the city I'M
til SIS p. m.
The economy move is expected to
reduce operating expenses of the In
dianapolis office approximately
S4,400 by the end of the fiscal year.
Part of the saving will be made by
requiring each employe to take a
four days furlough, without pay,
and without a substitute being en-
ployed, between now and June 80.
The reduction in service I'M
doubtedly will bring criticism for a
time" said Mr.. Buchanan. How
ever, for years the department has
been criticised because expenses ex-
ceeded receipts.
The afternoon residential de-
liveries have proved a very expen-
sive service. Frequently a carrier
will start out on hisSrou in the
afternoon with only dozen or two
letters and few newspapers. Most
of this mail could be delivered the
next day without working a hard
ship on any one.

The grand jurors reported that

Men without Experience"
'These men we're without eye

report said
Sheriff Holey was primarily re-

2. The help of Herbert Young

fled with Dillinger and later was

attendants in obeying Jail rules"
