CHAPTER XIXC4lml.
The MV arm of the sheriff dropped.
The wboto hody of Ike- Anderson shot
low through tho trunk as was tho
shcrlK's Invarlablo cusUim melted
down and sank Into a sitting posture
leaning against tho edgo ot tho stoop.
Tho shorlK with a leap sprang bohlnd
tho fallen man not firing again. Iko
Anderson with a black film now como
upon his eyes raised his rorolrer and
fired once twico tbrco times four
times flvo times tapping tho spaco In
front of him regularly and carefully
with his fire. Then ho sank back
wearily into tho sheriff's arms.
"AH right mammy 1 1 remarked Iko
Anderson somewhat Irrelerantly.
CHAPTER XX.
The Body of the Crimt.
Hour after hour In tho heat ot tho
dny or tho cool of tho ercnlng. tho
giant Mexican strodo on by tho sldo
of tho two horsemen sometimes trot-
ting like a dog. mora often walking
with a shambling wide-reaching step
tireless as any wild animal. Expres-
sionless mute tho colossal flguro
strodo along llko so mo primordial
crcaturo In whom a human soul bad
not yet found homo.
Tho Mexican was running the back
trait of tho horso of Cal areathouse.
tho missing ranchman and U was
very early seen that tho horso had
not returned orcr tho routo taken by
Orcathouso when ho started out. Ho
had gono along tho rallcy of tho
Smoky Hirer whereas tho courso ot
tho loose animal had been along tho
chord of a wldo arc rriado by tho val-
ley of that stream a courso much
shorter and easier to travcrso as It
ornded a part of that rough country
known as tho breaks of tho Smoky
a scries of gullies and "draws" run-
ning from tho tableland down to tho
deep llttlo rlrcr bed. Tho afternoon
Melted down and sank
of the flrst day brought tho travelers
well within view of a timber line but
tho rough country along tho stream
was not yet reached whon thoy wcro
forced to quit tho trail and maka tbolr
rough bivouac for tho night
There was a curious feeling ot cer-
tainty in Franklin's mind as they
again took saddlo for tho Journey that
the end ot tho quest was not far dis-
tant and that Ita nature waa prede-
termined. Neither ho nor Curly ex-
pected to find the ranchman alive
though neither could bavo given letter
and lino for this belief. As for Juan
his faco was expressionless aa ever.
"Que camlna ondo amino!"
asked Curly in cowboy patois. "Which
way?"
The Mexican pointed up tho stream
with carelessness and they turned
thither. As they resumed tho march
now along tho level floor or tho wind-
ing llttlo valley Franklin was revolv-
ing a certain Impression In his mind
la tho mud at tho bank where thoy
had stopped bo had seen tho Imprint
of a naked foot a foot very largo and
with an upturned too widely spread-
ing apart from Its fellows and It
seemed to him that this track was not
so fresh as tho onca ho had Just seen
made boforo his eyes. Troubled he
said nothing but gavo a start as Cur-
ly without Introduction remarked as
though reading his thoughts:
"Cap I seen It too."
"Ills footprint at the bankr
"Yep. Ho's shorn been here afore."
Nolther man said more but both
grew grave and both looked uncon-
sciously to tholr weapons. Tho Mex-
ican plunged ahead as confidently as
before and In tho tangled going his
speed was greater than that of tho
horses. "Culdado!" (cartful) "Juan"
cried Curly warnlngly and the latter
turned backed a face inscrutablo as
ever.
The turned an angle ot tho valley
and came out upon a llttlo flat among
the trees. Toward this open space
the Mexican sprang with horse ex
cited cries. The horses plunged back
snorting. Yet In tho little glade all
was alienee solitude. Swiftly Frank-
lin and Curly dismounted and mado
fast their horses and then followed
up the Mexican tholr weapons bow
both drawn.
This glade now empty had onco
held a man or biub. Here was a trod-
den place where a horso bad been
tied to a tree. Here was the broken
cad ot a lariat. Hero had been a little
bivouac a bed scraped up of the
ety fatlea leaves and bunches of
taller grass. Herv were broken bushes

Used upon tht ghastly shape which
lay before htm.
There In tho ashes of tho dead flro
as though embalmed as though alive
as though lingering to aecuso and to
convict lay tho body of Grcatbouso
tho missing man Not merely a
charred incinerated moss tho flguro
lay In tho full appenranco ot life a
cast of tho actual man molded with
fineness from the white ashes ot tho
flro! Not a feature not a limb not a
fragment of clothing was left undc-
stroyedl yot nono tho less hero stretch-
ed across tho bed ot tho burned-out
flro with faco upturned with ono arm
doubled beneath tho head and tho
other with clinched hand outflung
lay tho Image tho counterpart nay
tho Identity of tho man they sought!
It was a death mask wrought by tho
pity of tho destroying flames. Thcso
winds this sky tho nlr tho rain all
had spared and loft It hero In accusa-
tion most terrible. In evldcnco unpar-
alleled Incredibly yet irresistibly
truo.
Franklin felt his heart stop as ho
looked upon this sight and Curly's
face grow palo beneath Its tan. They
gazed for a moment quickly then
Curly sighed and stepped back. "Keep
him covered Cap" ho said and go-
ing to bis horse ho loosened tho long
lariat.
"Arriba Juan" ho said quietly
"uct up and tho giant obeyed as
meekly as a child. Curly tied his
hands behind his back took away his
knife and bound him fast to a tree.
Juan offered no rcsUtanco whatever
but looked at Curly with wondering
dumb protest in his eyes as of an
animal unjustly punished. Curly
turned again to tho flro.
"It's him all right." said ho; "that's
Cal." Franklin nodded.
Curly picked up a bit ot stick and
began to stir among tho ashes but at.
ho did so both ho and Franklin ut-
Into a sitting pasture.
tcred an exclamation of surprise. Dy
accident ho had touched ono of the
limbs. Tho stick passed through It
leaving behind but n crumpled form-
less heap cf ashes. Curly essayed In-
vestigation upon tho other sldo of tho
Arc. A touch and tho wfaolo ghastly
flguro was gono! There remained
no traco of what had lain there. The
shallow Incrustlng shell of tho flckto
ash broke In and fell all tho thin ex-
terior covering dropping Into tho cav
ern which It had Inclosed. Ueforo
them lay not charred nnd dismem-
bered remains but simply a flat tablo
of ashes midway along It a slightly
higher ridge at which tho wind hith-
erto not conspiring now toyed flick-
ing away Items hero and there cur-
rying tticm spreading them returning
them unto tho dust Cal Oreathouso
had mado hla charge and left it with
the Frontier to cast tho reckoning.
CHAPTER XXI.
Tho Trial.
"Your honor" said Franklin to tho
Court "I appear to defend this man."
Tho opening acntence of tho young
advocate might bavo been utterod in
burlesque. To call this n court of
Justice might have seemed sheer libel.
Thcro waa not tho flrst suggestion ot
the dignity and solemnity of tho law.
Elllsvltle had no hall of Justice and
tho court aat at ono placo or anothor
aa convenience dictated. This being
an Important case and one In which
all tho populace was interested Judgo
Urlstol had seclected the largest avail-
able assembly room which happened
to bo the central hall ot Sam Pres-
ton's livery barn. The Judgo sat bo-
hlnd a large upturned box which sup-
ported a few battered books. At his
right the rod-nosed prosecuting attor-
ney shuffled bis papers. Along the
sides of the open hallway through
whoso open doom at each end the
wind passed freely sat Jury and audi-
ence indiscriminately mingled. The
prisoner himself ignorant ot tho
meaning of all 'his. sat on an up-
turned tub unshackled and unguard-
ed. Back of these figures appeared
the beads ot a double row of horses.
Dack of tho seated men others were
massed standing in the doorways.
Outside tho building stood crowds
now and then Increased or lessened
by thosa who passed in or out of the
room where tho court was in session.
Theso interested spectators were for
the most part dark mtBburaed men.

wearing wldo hats and Barrow boots
with spurs. They nil were armed.
Leaniag against the aides of the man-
gers or resting a hand upon the
shoulders of another they gazed calm-
ly at the bar ot Justice. The attitude
qf Kkevllle wm one- of sardonic calm.
As a function u a stew this trta-1
might go on.

Tho orator knew his audleoee. He

'Yo' Honah" began tho accusing
rolco again "I aee him now. There

Hla volco had sunk Into a whisper as
bo spoko tho last words leaning for-

tho Jury. Suddenly ho straightened
up his clinched hand shaken high
above his head.
"No!" ho cried. "No! I say to

Franklin roso nnd looked cnlmiy
about him whilo tho buzxlng of com-
ment and tho outspoken exclamations
of applauso yet greeted tho speech ot
tho prosecutor. Tho sentiment of
pity was strong In his heart. Ho re-
solved to uso All ho know ot tho cun-
ning of tho law to savo this half-wit'

If possible the ends of a technical Jus-
tice In order to secure a hlghor and
a broader Justice tho charity ot a di-
vine mercy. Ho realized fully how
much was thcro to overcome as ho
gazed upon tho net faces of tho real
Jury tho crowd ot grim spectators.
"Your Honor and gentlemen ot tho
Jury" ho began "In defending this
man I stand for tho law. Tho repro-
sontatlvo of tho atato Invokes tho

(To bo continued.)
HISTORY OF COTTON THREAD.
Napoleon's Seizure of Hamburg
Dl.
rectly Forced Its Use.
Ex-I'rovost Clark ot Paisley Eng
land has been relating tho origin of
cotton sewing thread which waa flrst
used In that town in tho weaving of
"noddles" as a substltuto for silk
which was stopped by Napoleon in
1S03 when be seized Hamburg. Mr.
Clark's grandfather and his brother
then bethought them of cotton which
worked so smoothly that Mr. Clark's
father then a youth took to recom-
mending It to women Instead of ilncu
then mostly used.
Originally It was sold In hanks or
skeins. Thcso tho women had to
wind Into llttlo balls on they do a
cut ot wool at tho present day. Wish-
ing to convenience them young Clavk
on selling a skein ot thread ould alt
down at a pirn wheel and wind the
thread on a bobbin for which ho
charged a halfpenny. This halfpenny
was refunded when the empty bobbin
was returned. Such was the begin-
ning ot cotton thread.
Page Ate Senator's Luncheon.
Senator Cockrcll confines his dally
luncheon to plump rod apples. Yes-
terday whon tho usual hour for hla
lunch arrived tbo Mlssourlan clapped
his hands twice. A amort page stood
at his elbow.
"Boy tako this to my clerk In the
commlttoo room" said he giving tho
youth a scrap of paper carelessly
folded.
Tho pago ran out of tho Senate
chamber up tbo marblo steps and Into
tho far northeast corner of tho Senate
wing where Mr. Cockrcll has his of-
fice. Tho noto waa delivered to the
clerk who handed tho pago two plump
applos. That waa what tbo noto In-
structed him to do.
A half boar passed. Senator Cockrell
was enduring the pangs of hunger.
"What becamo ut tho boy who went
after my apples?" said ho to Barney
Layton.
Tho lad entirely unsuspicious ot
anything amiss waa summoned into
tbo Senator's presence. Ho explained
that ho thought the apples were bis
reward for delivering tho message. He
had eaten them.
The frugal Mlssourlan saw the Joke
In tho situation. He could not restrain
a laugh. Being out one luncheon bo
resumed attention to tho Senate pro-
ceedings and bided hla evening meal

Having boforo me tho knowlodgo
where ho can aecuro a homo with the
oxpmidlturo ot but llttlo money it Is
woll for him to obtain all Informa-
tion posxlblo regarding tho product-
Irene of tho land In tho country
that ho may select. For sovoral years
past a largo number ot Americans
haro remorod to Wostorn Canada
and as nearly as It can be ascer-
tained alraoit all ot those have ox-
pressed tbomsolvos satisfied with the
conditions that axlst thoro. During
tho past summer a number ot tho ed-
itors ot farm papers throughout tho
United Slates mado n personal visit
on a tour of Inspection and tho re-
ports of thcso gentlemen provo inter-
esting reading. Mr. 11. E. Hoath ed-
itor of tho "Nebraska Farmer" a
paper enjoying a wldo circulation as
well as tho confldenco of Its sub-
Bcrlbors after giving somo idea ot
tho extent ot this wonderful country
says:
"Western Canada Is tho last un-
occupied and unimproved good agri-
cultural land in America available
to-day."
Ho then discusses ita possibilities
for raising llvo stock and tho advan-
tages Ic possesses for dairying farm-
ing nnd wheat growing and aays
"What has been said about tho coun-
try as to tho abll.tr of tho soil tho
ylold of wonderful crops of wheat.
Is qulto'justlflcd."
To quote furthor from Mr. Hoath
ho says referring to cllmato:
"Theso peoplo (skeptical ones) do
not know or reallzo that altitude
moro than latltudo makes climates;
that Iprgo bodies ot watqr both froth
and salt that never froczo over ex-
ert a wonderful Influcnco on cllmato.
Anothor Influence on climate moro
potent than those- named above
which applies more to tho Alborta
district Is tho warm Chinook brnozo
from the Pacific ocean which Is COO
or 700 miles nearer than Colorado or
Wyoming besides tho Rocky Moun-
tain rango is not nearly so high- not
half so far from tho ocean as it la
down in tho States.
"In further considering tho climate
of tho Canadian prairies wo should
not loso sight ot tho fact of tho In-
flucnco of tho rains; tho total aver-
ago rainfall for tho season Is but J3.SS
Inchci for tho territories and 17.34
inches In Manitoba .and that tho
nmounU falling bolwoon April 1st and
Drtnlirr 1st aro reaDOctlvelr 9.39
Inches and 12.87 Inches or about three-
fourths of tbo ontlro rainfall. From
tho mlddlo of June to tho mlddlo ot
July thcro aro over two hours moro
daylight In every twenty-four hours
than thcro Is In Nebraska. Tho main
reason why "Western Canada wheat
srows to such perfection Is tho effect
of solar light or longer period ot sun-
shine It gets each day. This Is what
makes seeds or grain moro perfect
grown lu this country than olsowhoro.
This extraordinary rapid growth of
vegetation under tho Influonco of this
long continued sunihlno excoods any-
thing known in lower latitudes.
"Wo do pot wish It understood that
wheat alono Is tbo main product of
this country; it leads -In that yot it Is
destined to bocomo famous for Its cat-
tlo horses and sheep and for its dairy
products. Wo saw more and larger
bands of cattlo and sheep grazing In
Asslnlbola and Alborta than wo over
Raw on tho western plains ot tho
United States. Ono band ot cattlo
numbering 5000 head wcro grazls on
tho rich grass and sheep without num
ber."
Tho government of the Dominion ot
Canada Is still using tho sam9 ener-
getic efforts which hare been used for
tho past G or 0 years to settle up these
western prairies and on application
to any Agont ot the Canadian Govern-
ment tho settler will be able to secure
a cortlflcato entitling htm to a low
rate which will giro him tbo oppor-
tunity of visiting any portion of Can-
ada's grain producing domain.

Teaching a Lesson.
In those serious times when men
rush about tho etrcots. with stern
sat faces It sccmeth pat to para-
phrase tho quotation "An honest
man's tho nobloat work of Ood" Into
"A funny man's tho noblest work"
etc.
It was on D n street. In a crowd
ed city thoroughfare. Drivers were
shouting to fagged horsos drawing too
relghty loeds pedestrians wore
' Aging each other doxtorously and
iuo noon rusn was on in uio congested
thoroughfare.
" At n dangerous crossing a poor
Jaded woman with a- heavy bundle
attempted to cross as a great brute
on a coal wagon bawled out:
"Qlt out of tho way thoro! ait out
can't yo soo nothln'?" And with
novor a check on hla forging horsos
almost ran hor down. A scowl or
two from patscrsby wore aimed at
tho man who directed his attontton to
awoarlng at his horses as thoy labored
with tho ox&essivo load. Then there
camo Into tho story tho funny man.
Ho had witnessed tho brutal careless-
nebs ot tho drlvor and bo rnoant to
teach him a lesson.
"HI!" ho crlod gesticulating wildly
and pointing oxcltodly at tho wagon.
"HI! Something tho matter with your
ump-ump ump-ump (mumbllngly)
