DOUBLE TRAGEDY ENACTED IN N. Y. COURT BUILDING
Man Enraged at Court Summons For Wife Beating Shoots Spouse in Corridor
WIFE BEATER TURNS KILLER
Murderer Killed as He Opens Fire on Detectives Sent by Magistrate
(K. N. F. Service.)
New York, Aug. 16.—Maddened with jealousy and cocaine, Norman Roberts, 27, of 204 West 143d street, shot and killed his beautiful young wife, Nellie, in the corridor of the Washington Heights court, Thursday morning. The murderer was in turn fatally wounded by bullets Patrolmen Enoch Parsons, Francis J. Quigley and George Donelly, fired into his body and died soon after the Columbus hospital.
Family Trouble Cause.
Family trouble was the immediate cause of the shooting. Roberts had been served a summons to appear to answer a charge of wife-bateing. He was in court early and had been standing at the window watching the passersby in the street. When Mrs. Roberts, leading her five-year-old kirl Norma, appeared at the head of the steps, Roberts advanced to meet her and demanded roughly: "What do you mean by bringing me here?" "Norman," she replied, "I want no more trouble with you." Roberts thereupon made a dive for his hip pocket. Mrs. Roberts caught his hand instantly and held it down but not before he had drawn the 44 automatic. He began shooting at her legs. His hand once on the trigger he kept it there. As the first shot took effect in the lower part of her body, she sank lower and lower until a bullet finally pierced her heart. Then she fell lifeless on the tiling.
Detectives Open Fire.
Court had just opened and at the sound of the shooting Magistrate Simpson ordered the patrolmen to see what was the matter. They arrived in time to see Mrs. Roberts fall. Roberts, it seemed had planned to kill himself but, at the sight of the officers with their levelled revolvers he opened fire on them. One of his two remaining shots was all that he succeeded in firing for the next instant he crumpled to the floor under a fusilade of bullets from the guns of the officers.
The little daughter that the dead woman had been leading had a narrow escape. Thanks to the presence of mind of Mrs. Eva Hoffman, 34 West 135th street, the little one was snatched from the mother at the first shot.
The pair had been married six years and had been separated several times, on account of the way Roberts beat her.
The dead man is the son of a Trenton minister and is the brother of Needham Roberts( who won distinction in the war.
Roberts it seemed, had planned to kill himself, also. This fact is borne out by a letter found in his pocket in which he stated he couldn't stand things any longer.

KU KLUX PURCHASES
VALPARISO UNIVERSITY
Creed, Color, or Religion Not to Bar Students, New Owners Announce
Indianapolis, Aug. 15. Negotiations have been completed for the taking over of Valparaiso university, located at Valparaiso, Ind., by the Ku Klux Klan organization, it was announced here tonight by Milton Elrod, editor of the Fiery Cross, official publication of the Klan. The university, which is one of the oldest educational institutions in the country, will be called the National university, Mr. Elrod said. The purchase price was announced as $250,000, which represents an amount equal to the indebtedness of the institution. Five hundred thousand dollars will be spent immediately for improvements of the university buildings, and in addition an endowment of another $500,000 will be established, according to Mr. Elrod, who added the school would be strictly non-sectarian. The institution will run along the same lines as heretofore and will be open to all persons meeting the educational requirements, regardless of race, color or religion, it was said.
UNMASKED MOBS FORCE
GEORGIANS TO ARMS
Machine Guns, Pistols, and Shot Guns Kept at Doors and
Macon, Ga., Aug. 14.—It is every fellow for himself in this part of Georgia today. Because of the recent recurrence of kidnapings and floggings by unmasked mobs, individual "crackers" are reverting to the ancient custom of toting hardware. Almost overnight much of the effect of years of "brother love" education has been wiped out. Some months ago the country was startled by flogging sprees in Georgia. They have just broken out again. Within the last few days four men have been whipped and repeated attempts have been made to kidnap and flog Tom Thomas and wife colored caretakers at the Georgia Training School for Boys at Milledgeville. Governor Walker is preparing a state investigation of these outrages but the individual Georgian is putting most of his faith in his own marksmanship.
Shotguns Repose by Windows.
More men are toting pistols in Georgia today than in many years. Sawed-off shotguns repose near the windows of scores of homes in Macon and Milledgeville. At the training school for boys a veteran of the World War is crouching over a machine gun ready to act whenever the mob sees fit to carry out its threat to kidnap the Thomases and dynamite the building.
The feeling seems to be that something tragic is imminent. Nobody knows when the unknown mob may repeat its recent outrage when half a dozen autos, loaded with unmasked men, stopped at Ollie Perry's store, seized the tubercular proprietor and his clerk, Gus Roberts, carried them soundly. Perry was indicted on a bootlegging charge but not exposed, livelily and extend trial. Macon folks are grateful to the governor, who has offered handsome rewards for the arrest of the gangsters, but they will not be pacifists on the strength of his plans. They are carrying something on the hip, the contents of which are not spirituous, yet lethal.

ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY. AUGUST 18, 1923
Text Calls for Carrying Out of Government's Original Plan for Colored Personnel; Wire Sent to President by Women.
Among the resolutions endorsed by the Minnesota American Legion at the state convention in Faribault last week was one dealing with the Tuskegee hospital situation. The resolution, which was forwarded to the national executive committee, reads as follows:
"That in as much as the federal government has found it necessary to place colored veterans in a separate hospital in order that they may obtain proper attention;
"Be it resolved, That the federal government should carry out its original plan and place a complete colored personnel of doctors and nurses in the 'Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee. Ala.
"However, should this appear impracticable, then be it further resolved, that a suitable location for the hospital for colored veterans be found where the government can carry out its original plan."
The resolution was framed and originally introduced to the Fourth District convention by Atty. Geo. W Hamilton, commander of Leslie Lawrence post. Assurance was given Mr. Hamilton at Faribault by Alvin Owley, national commander, that some action would be taken by the national body. A committee has already been appointed to investigate and report on the matter, Mr. Owley said.
WOMEN'S CLUBS SEND
TELEGRAM TO COOLIDGE
Everywoman Progressive council, a local women's club has sent the following telegram to President Coolidge on the Tuskegee hospital: Calvin Coolidge, President, Washington, D. C.: The following representative organizations of white women of St. Paul, Minn., urge that you carry out the wise and just determination of our late lamented President Harding to appoint colored superintendent, physicians and nurses to man and operate the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee Institute: Mrs. Cordenia A. Severance, honorary president, Women's Republican club of Ramsey县; Woman's Welfare League; Y. M. C. A. Department of Religious Instruction; Fourth District Federated clubs; Lincoln Women's Republican club; Minnesota Business Women's association.

Everywoman Progressive Council. Mrs. W. T. Francis, president of the Everywoman club, who wired Mrs. T. G. Winter, national officer of the Federated clubs, asking her aid and endorsement, received a reply from Mr. Winter saying that she would do everything in her power to help the request. As Mrs. Winter is a national figure and a personal friend of the Coolidges it is felt that her influence will be of great aid.
N. A. A. C. P. BRANCHES
GUARD CIVIL RIGHTS
A report of civil rights activities of a number of branches was made public today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, showing wide-spread vigilance in guarding the rights of colored citizens. The reports show that the following are some of the cases under way: Cleveland, O.: The N. A. A. C. P. is investigating the shooting of a woman in the theft of an automobile. A resolution of protest has been introduced in the city council and is in the hands of the mayor. Detroit, Mich.: The Legal Redress committee is investigating the case of a colored man discriminated against in the local railroad post office. Waterloo, Ia.: The case of a young colored boy from the South, shot by an officer after jumping from a freight train is under investigation by the Legal Redress committee. Portland, Ore.: The branch is working to convict participants in a near-lynching that occurred recently about 15 miles from Portland.
BUSINESS DELEGATES
UNABLE TO ATTEND
Owen Howell and Fred D. McCracken, elected as delegates to the National Business league meeting in Hot Springs, were unable to go because of the pressure of their business, but they sent telegrams of greeting to the convention on behalf of the St. Paul branch.
As a preliminary to the second annual business league exhibition and style show which will be held in November, officers of the business league are negotiating with the Union Hall association for the renting of the live building. If this cannot be arranged the league will have to secure another hall, for indications are that the attendance and exhibits will far outnumber those of last year when crowds were turned away two nights.

PROTEST HOSPITAL COMPROMISETOHINES
Letter Asks General to Keep Late President's Promise on Staff
New York, Aug. 16—Upon receipt of the report that Director General Hines of the Veterans' Bureau had "compromised" with a white committee from Alabama, offering to appoint a white doctor as head off Tuskegee Hospital for Colored Veterans, and two white assistants, the remainder of the staff to be colored, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at once wrote a sharp letter of protest. The letter, which is signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N.A. A. C. P., inquires whether it is the intention of the Veterans' Bureau to fulfil President Harding's promise that the hospital would be manned entirely by a colored staff. The letter reads in part as follows: "On behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People I am writing to ascertain if this report is correct. We are especially anxious to secure this provisional fact of the fact that the late President Harding stated through his secretary in a letter to this association dated April 28: 'It is the plan of the director of the Veterans' Bureau, with the approval of the President, to man this institution completely with a colored personnel.'
"We would like to know what is to be the action of the Veterans' Bureau in view of the definite promise made by Mr. Harding that we may inform those interested in this question whether or not the promise of the late President Harding is to be carried out."

Colored Man Now Owns Restaurant In Which He Was Once Head Chef
J. A. Alexander Has Come Out of the Kitchen to Be Proprietor of Northfield's Finest Eating Place; Does Large Business.
Rising from chef in a small restaurant to the position of proprietor of one of the finest restaurants in southern Minnesota in the short space of one year is the story of J. A. Alexander, proprietor of the Alexander cafe, Northfield, Minn.
A year ago Mr. Alexander began work as chef of the Decline cafe in Northfield. Several months later he purchased the cafe from the owners who wanted to get out of the business. In slightly more than six months he has built such an establishment and done such a volume of business that he is now one of the respected and prosperous citizens of the busy little college town of Northfield.
The main dining room of the Alexander cafe has a seating capacity of 140 and is kept immaculate. A chop suey room on the second floor is capable of caring for 80 diners. This room is equipped with Chinese tables inlaid with ivory.
Mr. Alexander does a big business the year around. In the winter months the students at St. Olaf and Cafleton colleges keep him busy. The summer months bring heavy trade because of the fact that Northfield is on the paved Jefferson highway which carries thousands of tourists to and from the Twin Cities and points in Iowa, Missouri and Eastern points.
It is not the policy of the management to discriminate against either white or colored. Both white and colored waitresses are employed. Mr. Alexander himself is a staunch opponent of discrimination. "If I could not serve my own people with the same courtesy and thoroughness with which I serve my white patrons, I would close up my restaurant," he told The Appeal reporter.
Colored Mutt And Jeff, In Chase, Tie Up Subway Service
Pair Throws Express Train In to Panic; Elude Cops and Motorman
(Crusader Service.)
New York, Aug. 16—John Thomas, subway agent on the southbound platform of the 125th Street station in Lenox avenue, counting his cash at 7:30 o'clock last night, heard yells and then saw a short and a tall colored man tumble down the stairs. The short one was leading and ran past the change booth and vaulted over the turnstile. "Hey, where's your money," shouted Thomas. "Got no time to answer foolish questions," yelled the short man as he ran to the northern end of the platform and leaped to the tracks. The tall man all jumped over the crossbar to the northbound rails as a Bronx express came thunderling in. The motorman saw them and jammed on the emergency brakes, jostling the passengers from their seats and into each other's arms. Fearing the worst, the motorman sprang to the rails and peered under the train. But pursued and pursuer were not there.
A telephone call was sent in to the power house and the "juice" was cut off. Policemen arrived. The passengers, trembling and white faced, piled out on the platform. One man fainted and three women went into hysteria, as the result of the excitement caused by the sudden stopping of the train. Trains were stalled all along the route, police swept the tracks with searchlights, but found no trace of the colored Mutt and Jeff who had caused all the excitement. After an hour's tie-up, the search was given up, and service resumed.
It is thought the colored Mutt and Jeff pair ran to the next station and the street. Thomas said the tall one threatened to "run the short one rugged."
C. B. SLEMP IS NAMED
PRESIDENT'S SECRETARY
Washington, D. C., Aug. 14 (Special)—Campbell Bascom Slemp, former congressman from Virginia, well known in national politics as a Southern Republican leader, has been appointed secretary to the President, it was announced at the White House today.
Mr. Slemp succeeds George B. Christian, Jr., who tendered his resignation immediately following President Harding's funeral. The appointment occasioned considerable surprise in Washington as it had been predicted generally that Mr. Coolidge would select Edward T. Clark, his secretary as vice president.
Announcement of the appointment of Mr. Slemp came after he had a long conference with the President this afternoon.
It was later announced that Mr. Clark would serve as the President's personal secretary.

O. C. HALL OFFERED URBAN LEAGUE POST
Prominent St. Paul Man Tendered Position in Louisville, Kentucky
Orrington C. Hall, prominent in St. Paul church and welfare circles, has been offered the executive secretaryship of the Louisville Urban league, it became known last week.
Mr. Hall has just returned from Louisville where he went for conferences on the offer at the invitation and expense of the Family Welfare association of that city.
For more than 15 years Mr. Hall has been active in welfare work in St. Paul and is in intimate touch with the work of the organized welfare societies of the city as well as with business and professional men who are in positions to aid colored people in various ways. In one of the boom years of the war period, The Helpers, a welfare organization of which he is an officer, placed a payroll of more than $200,000 in the plants in and about the Twin Cities.
Mr. Hall is at present a clerk in the county auditor's office in the city hall. He has not announced any decision on the Louisville offer.
OHIO BRANCH WINS NEW
TRIAL IN RIGHTS CASE
The Troy (Ohio) branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has won a victory in a civil rights case being fought for Gentry Peters, a colored man who claimed he had been ejected because of his color from an opera house under the management of Harry W. Kress. Mr. Peters sued for $500 damages. Attorney Sully Jaymes, retained by the N. A. A. C. P. to fight the case for Mr. Peters, after an unfavorable verdict from a jury carried the case from the Miami county common pleas court, to the appellate court, where the judgment of the lower court had erred in excluding some of Mr. Peter's testimony and remanded the case for a new trial.

Graduate of Harvard
Mr. Carter, who comes from the Louisville Urban league, was accompanied by T. Arnold Hill, Western field secretary of the National Urban league. Mr. Carter was born at Rochester, N. Y. in 1890 and finished his secondary education at Gloverville high school in 1907. He received his A.

During the war Mr. Carter was with the quartermaster's corps as disbursing officer with the 92nd division in France. He began his study of Urban league methods in New York and served for a short while as executive secretary of the Columbus, Ohio Urban league. For the past three years he has been executive secretary of the Louisville Urban league. While in Louisville he has established a central employment bureau for colored people, a travelers' aid for colored people at railroad stations, increased industrial opportunity thru co-operation with the Federal and State employment bureaus, caused the appointment of an inspector of sanitation, and was instrumental in the naming of a colored policewoman. An office will be opened as soon as possible and work begun here at once, Mr. Carter said. Approval of the budget of the Urban league is held under advisement by the budget committee of the Community Chest-pending the reception of other budgets and a checking of all requests against the probable subscription to the Chest. The budget was recommended with the endorsement of the St. Paul Association.
50 Hurt When Mob And Klan Clash In Ohio
Spectacular Battle Staged on Streets of Steubenville After Election; One Man Near Death Death From Wounds.
Steubenville, Ohio, Aug. 16.—One man is near death and 50 are injured as a result of a spectacular battle on the streets here last night between 3,000 citizens and 100 members of the Ku Klux Klan.
The fighting is said to have been an outgrowth of Tuesday's city primary election in which four Klan candidates were successful.
The mob of citizens attacked the Klansmen as they were coming out of a meeting hall shortly before midnight.
Darwin L. Gibson, said to have been watching the melee, was shot and is not expected to live.
The Klansmen caused a stir when they drove into town from Wierton, W. Va. They were in a caravan of 25 automobiles and carried illuminated crosses.
The procession went direct to the Klansmen place. A crowd soon gathered outside the hall and began heckling the Klansmen as they came out.
The clash followed. Several members of the mob are said to have had firearms, but they were armed largely with stones and clubs.
Police succeeded in rounding up the Klansmen and escorting most of them across the river into West Virginia. A few members were forced to stay behind because of injuries.
Two men are held in connection with the booting. Police said they were needed.
Entered at the Postoffice in St. Paul, Minnesota, as second-class mail matter. June 6, 1885, under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879.
AN ELECTION FACTOR FOR NEXT YEAR.
(Minneapolis Tribune.) There is a possibility that the general outcome of the next presidential election will turn on the colored vote—who knows? The extensive movement of colored men from the South will have no determinative effect on the electoral vote of that part of the country for the reason that most of the migrants were as good as disfranchised in the states they leave behind. They will not be disfranchised in the North and their votes are bound to enter as a considerable factor in the totals of ballots cast in the Northern states they have chosen for their new homes.
As an indication of the scope of the colored migration we may take the case of Georgia. We have it from that state that a survey discloses that since January nearly 80,000 colored people have abandoned their old habitat and moved across Mason and Dixon's line, and that in the three preceding years the exodus mounted to 151,000 colored people of the laboring class. The total is big enough to depopulate ten average Georgia counties, according to the calculation of the Atlanta Journal. The result is the vacating of 46,674 farm houses. James H. Peters, president of the Georgia Bankers' association, lays the migration northward to better living conditions, higher wages, more desirable educational facilities and less racial prejudice. He says the one way to check the movement is to make up for the Southern deficiencies in these respects.
Unless Georgia employers "make good" by wholesale at once in bettering the lot of the colored laborers, the migration will continue throughout the coming year, and by November of next year, or presidential election time, the additions to the populations of many states of the North will be large.
It is presumed that most of the colored migrants are voters, and it might be expected that their natural inclination would be to vote the Republican ticket, but that will not follow as a matter of course. Many of the colored people are coming into an atmosphere of political discontent, and there is no telling what effect this atmosphere will have on them as partisans. There have been multiplying signs of late that there may be a formidable third party in the presidential field next year. The following of this party, if there is to be one, will come largely from the farms and the industrial centers, whether the colored people—most of them sunskilled laborers as to their productive opportunities in the North—will be most likely to foregather.
With the vote split three ways, there is no fortelling what power this new colored citizenship may exert in the presidential election. It will be a consideration not to be overlooked in the primaries, the nominating conventions and the campaign.
Health Talks
By E. S. WEBER, D. D. S.
Any questions regarding subjects in these articles or other dental work should be addressed to the Health Editor of the Appeal. Dr. Wheeler will publish the answers each week in this column.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Q. Is it true that if you have your eye-teeth extracted your eyes will be weak? —L. T. W.
A. I have heard this preposterous assertion before. There is absolutely no truth in it. It is merely a myth. The correct name of this tooth is "The Cuspid." Take the "eye" out.
Q. My gums bleed a great deal in the fact that I use a mouth wash along with my dentirice. Do you think that I have an advance case of pyorrhea?
-H. M. D.
A. That I am not able to say.
You will have to have your mouth examined. I am almost certain that you have some deep-seated calculous around your teeth or some malfitting crowns and bridges that harbor food debris. It would be necessary to remove the cause before a mouth wash or anything else will do any good, therefore, I say, consult your dentist.
Every once in a while I have little sore on my gums, particularly around my lips. Do you think that my teeth have anything to do with this condition? —Miss L. R.
A. This condition could be one of two things, namely, aphthae, or more commonly known in its isolated
form, as canker sore. This condition does not arise from the teeth. A good physic, rest and a healing mouth wash will do away with this condition. The other could be due to a lack of acid which causes it to charge its contents via the bone and gums by making an opening. This opening is called a fistula. In this case I would advise extraction of the tooth. Q. I am—years of age and I notice that my teeth are getting darker. I can every day see there anything I can do to make them lighter? —W. T. J. A. At your age it is natural for the teeth to become darker. Don't worry about that, just keep on cleaning them and you will be all right. What causes decay of the teeth? A. It is due to chemical changes which go on in the mouth, acid is formed which dissolves away the enamel, bacteria get into the dentine and form a cavity. Hence the importance is using good mouth wash and dentifrices to neutralize this acid.
Q. I have a tooth that hurts every time I have something hot or cold. It has been recently crowned. My dentist told me that the condition would soon go away, but it hasn't. What do you think is wrong with it? A. Have the tooth X-rayed. B. I. The tooth might have been ground too close to the pulp, thus causing thermal changes and irritation.
Maude J. Wanzer presented in piano recital at Dyer's music hall by St. Philip's church Thursday, August 9, at 8:15 P. M. Mattie Rhodes, soprano, with Harriet Hall as accompanist at 8:15.
Music lovers of the Twin Cities were treated to a rare bit of entertainment by the musician Miss Maude J. Wanzer, a graduate of the music school at Macalester college paid a professional visit to St. Paul. Miss Wanzer had arranged a program of piano and vocal numbers, but owing to a serious throat infection she was unable to render the vocal numbers. Mrs. Mat
The "Colonial Song," Grainger, and "Juba Dance," Dett, had been played (very well, it was said) when we arrived. Of the remaining numbers, Chopin's Etude, Opus 25, No. 12 was played in a broad, bold manner that revealed a thorough knowledge of the composition and a mastery of the orpeggii. The program notes told us that this piece was designed for the purpose of displaying the chordal structure of the composition but a deep and cleverly interwoven melody soon made us forget this reference. "Maid of Ganges," one of Mendelssohn's songs without words, transcribed by Liszt was very delicately played. It is not the prettiest of Mendelssohn's songs without words, however. The first encore, Country Gardens," proved to be popular because the audience, perhaps because of its ragtime. The second, Chopin's Etude No. 7 was nicely colored and in sharp contrast to the previous number.
The most outstanding number on Mrs. Rhodes' excellently rendered album, "The Miss Wanzer's vocal numbers," was "By the Waters of Minnetonka," by Lieurance. In addition, Mrs. Rhodes sang "Onaway, Awake, Beloved," "Crazy Songs," and "Two Love Songs," by Rosamond Johnson, and "If Life Be a Dream."
WALTER SMITH, Jr.
SOUTH SEA TRIBES FROM ASIA
Marquesas are Traced Back to India by Hawaiian Scientist After Investigation.
Honolulu, Hawaii—The flora of the Marquesas islands prove that the Polynesian race came out of southeastern Asia to its present habitations in the islands of the Pacific, in the opinion of Forrest Brown, botanist of the Bishop museum, who has just returned from 17 months of investigation in the Marquesas in connection with the museum's effort to establish the origin of the Polynesians.
The presence in the Marquesas of the swamp coconut and the papaya led Professor Brown to the theory that the Marquesas visited America; these plants probably had been obtained in semi-tropical Central America. The food plants most common to the Marquesas came, however, from southeastern Asia, probably by way of Malay, Java and India.
Professor Brown said that the original Polynesians probably had inhabited the coasts of southeastern Asia and had been forced to seek new homes in the Pacific by the pressure of tribes and clans from the interior, which drove them literally into the ocean. They took their food plants with them when they migrated, he said. He is not ready to express an opinion as to the route or routes taken by the Polynesians during their migrations which finally landed them in Hawaii.

INTO each life shall come some great Event,
Obliterating all that was before
And making all that comes inconsequent,
Some hour of sweetness so surpassing all
It is the truth in all life's faulty lines,
In all the songs of birds the perfect call.
And so that song has summoned even me;
I who had been busy with so many things.
The small concerns that seemed so great to be.
I have been lifted up on sudden wings.
The night is fair that once was dark and drear.
The day is joyous that was full of care;
The clouds are gone, the sun, the stars, appear.
And now the world is beauty everywhere.
Some alchemy transfigures all the earth,
Toll now is pleasure, once a weary round;
New friends draw near, the old have greater worth.
The wealth of human hearts my heart has found.
Now merrily I climb the hard ascent, but now the grass is green, the sky is blue;
Into each life shall come some great Event,
And, in my own, that great Event was You.

While in the world, she was a man who could come there, asks if she is married, and departs, leaving her terrified. He returns with a priest, who goes through some sort of life, and the cowboy forces her to say "Sl." Asking her name and learning her identity the cowboy seems dazed.

think it fittin' that we drink to his sister an' to our hopes. Hea's to the lady we hope to make our Majesty! Hea's to the man who'll come ridin' out of the West, a fine, big-hearted man with a fast host an' a strong rope, an' may he win an' hold heir, come, friends, drink."
A heavy pound of horses' hoofs and a yell outside arrested Stillwell's voice and halted his in midair. The patio became as silent as an unmoulded room. Through open doors and windows of Madeline's chamber burst the sounds of horses stamping to a hait, then harsh speech of men, and a low cry of a woman in pain.
Rapel steps crossed the porch, entered Madeline's room. Nels appeared in the doorway. Madeline was sur-

prised to see that he had not been at the dinner-table. She was disturbed at sight of his face.
"Stewart, you wanted outdoors," called Nels, bluntly. "Monty, you slope out here with me. You, Nick, an' Stillwell—I reckon the rest of you better shut the dors an' stay Inside."
Nels disappeared. Quick as a cat Meline glided out. Madeline heard his soft, swift steps pass from her room into her office. He had left his guns there. Madeline trembled. She saw Stewart get up quietly and without any change of expression on his dark, sad face leave the patio. Nick Steele follow him. Stillwell dropped his wine-glass. As it broke, shivering the silence, his huge smile vanished. His face set into the old cragginess and the red slowly thickened into black. Stillwell went out and closed the door behind him.
Then there was a blank silence. The enjoyment of the moment had been rudely disrupted. Madeline glanced down the lines of brown faces to see the pleasure fade into the old familiar hardness.
"What's wrong?" asked Alfred, rather stupid. The change of mood had been too raid for him. Suddenly he awakened, thoroughly aroused at the interruption. "I'm going to see who's butted in to spot our dinner," he said, and strode out.
He returned before any one at the table had spoken or moved, and now the dull red of anger mottled his forehead.
"I see the sheriff of El Cajon!" he exclaimed, contemptuously. "Pete Have with some of his touch deputies come to arrest Gene Stewart. They've got that poor little Mexican girl out there on a horse. Confound that sheriff!"
Madeline calmly rose from the table, eluding Florence's retreating hand, and started for the door. The cowboys jumped up. Alfred barred her progress.
"Alfred, I am going out," she said. "No, I guess not," he replied. "That's no place for you. Maybe there'll be a fight. You can do nothing. You must not go." "Perhaps I can prevent trouble," she replied. As she left the patio she was aware that Alfred, with Florence at his side and the cowboys behind, were starting to follow her. When she got out of her room upon the porch she heard several men in loud, angry discussion. Then, at sight of Bonita helplessly and cruelly bound upon a horse, pale and disheveled with suffering, Madeline and the bull she had that slight or mention of this girl always gave her. It yielded to a hot pang in her breast that live pain which so shamed her. But almost instantly, as a second glance showed an agony in Bonita's face, her brushed arms where the rope bolt deep into the flesh, her little brown hands stained with blood, Madeline was overcome by 'pity for the unfortunate girl and a woman's righteous passion at such barbarous treatment of one of her own sex.
The man holding the bridle of the horse on which Bonita had been bound was at once recognized by Madeline as the big-bodied, bulleted-handed guerrilla who had found the basket of wine in the spring at camp. Redder of face, blacker of beard, coarser of aspect, evidently under the influence of liquor, he was as fierce-looking as a gorilla and as repulsive. Besides him there were three other men present, all mounted on weary horses. The one in the foreground, gaunt, sharp-featured, red-eyed, with a pointed beard, she recognized as the sheriff of El Cajon. Stillwell saw Madeline, and, throwing up his hands, roared to be heard.
This quieted the gesticulating, quarreling men.
"Wal now, Pat Hat, what's drivin' you like a looped steer on the rampage?" demanded Stillwell.
"Keep in the traces, Bill," replied Haewe. "You savvy what I come for. I've been biddin' my time. But I'm ready now. I'm hyar to arrest a criminal."
The huge frame of the old cattleman jerked as if he had been stabbed. His face turned purple.
"What criminal?" he shouted, hoarsely.
The sheriff flicked his quirt against his dirty boot, and he twisted his thin lips into a leer.
"Why, Bill, I knew you hed a no-good outfit ridin' this range; but I wasn't wise thet you hed more'n one criminal."
"Out that talk! Which cowboy are you wantin' to arrest?"
Hawes' manner altered.
"Gene Stewart," he replied, curtly.
"On what charge?"
"Fer killin' a Greaser one night last fall."
"So you're still harpin' on that' Pat, you're on the wrong trail. You can't lay that killin' onto Stewart.
The thing's ancient by now. But if you insist on bringin' him to court, let the arrest go today—we're havin' some fheas hary—an' I'll fetch Gene In to El Cajon."
"Nope. I reckon I'll take him when I got the chance, before he slopes."
"I'm givin' you my word," thundered Stillwell.
"I reckon I don't he to take your word, Bill, or anybody else's."
Stillwell's great bulk quivered with hisrage, yet he made a successful effort to control it.
"See hyar, Pat Hare, I know what's reasonable. Law is law. But in this country there always has been an 'n' is now a safe an' sane way to proceed with the law. Mebbe you've forgot that. I'm a goin' to give you a hunch. Pat, you're not overlived in these parts. You've rid too much with a high hand. See your deals hew you been shady, an' don't you overlook what I'm sayin'. But you're the sheriff, an' I'm respectin' your office. I'm respectin' it this much. If the milk of human decency is so soured in your breast that you can't hev a kind feelin', then try to avoid the onelessness that'll result from any contrary move on your part today. Do you get that hunch?"
"Stillwell, you're threatenin' an officer," replied Hare, angrily, "I come to arrest him, an' I'm goin' to."
"So that's your game!" shouted Stillwell. "We-all are glad to get you straight, Pat. Now listen, you cheap, red-eyed coyote of a safari! You don't care how many enemies you make. You know you'll never get office again in this county. What do you care now? It's amazing! strange how earnest you are to hunt down the man who killed that particular Greaser. I reckon there's been some dozen or more killin's of Greasers in the last year. Why don't you take to trailln' some of them killin's? I'll tell you why. You're afraid to go near them. You hate the Gap. Skew art makes you want to hound him' an put him where he's never yet—in jail. You want to spite his friends, Wal, listen, you lean-jawed, skunk-bitten coyote! Go ahead an' try to arrest him!" Stillwell took one mighty stride on the porch. His last words had been cold. His rage appeared to have been

transferred to Hawe. The sheriff had begun to stutter and shake a lanky red hand at the cattleman when Stewart stepped out.
"Here, you fellows, give me a chance to say a word."
As Stewart appeared the Mexican girl suddenly visualized out of her hair. She stained at her bonds as if to lift her hands beeseechingly. A flush animated her haggard face, and her big eyes lighted.
"Senor Gene!" she moaned. "Help me! I so seek. They beat me, mo's keel me. Oh, help me, Senor Gene!"
"Shut up, er I'll gag you," said the man who held Bonita's horse.
"Muzzle her, Sneed, if she blabs agan," called Hawe.
Madeline felt something tense and strained working in the short silence. Was it only a phase of her thrilling excitement? Her swift glance showed the faces of Neis and Monty and Nick to be brooding, cold, watchful. She wondered why Stewart did not look toward Bonita. He, too, was now

dark-faced, cool, quiet, with something ominous about him.
"Hawe, I'll submit to arrest without any fuss," he said, slowly, "if you'll take the ropes off that girl."
"Nope," replied the sheriff. "She got away from me onct. She's hawg-tied now, an' she'll stay hawg-tied."
Madeline thought she saw Stewart give a slight start. But an unaccountable dimness came over her eyes, at brief intervals obscuring her keen sight.
"All right, let's hurry out of here," said Stewart. "You've made annoyance enough. Ride down to the corral with me. I'll get my horse and go with you."
"Hold on!" yelied Hawe, as Stewart turned away. "No so fast. Who's on this?" You'll ride one of pack-horses, an' you'll go in irons.
"You want to handcuff me!" queried Stewart, with sudden swift start of passion.
"Want to? Haw, haw! No, Stewart, the jest my way with hose-thieves, raiders Greasers, murderers, an' sch. See hyar, You sneed, git off an' put the irons on this man." The guerrilla called Sneed slid off his horse and began to fumble in his saddle-bags. Stillwell was gazing at Stewart in a kind of importing amaze. "Gene, you ain't goin' to stand for them handcuffs!" he pleaded. "Yes," replied the cowboy, "Bill old friend, I'm an outsider here. There's no call for Miss Hammond and—and her brother and Florence to be worried further about me. Their happy day has already been spolled on my account. I want to get out quick."
"Well, you might be too d—n considerate of Miss Hammond's sensitive feelin's." There was now no trace of the courteous, kindly old rancher. He looked harder than stone. "How about my feelin's? I want to know if you're goin' to let this sneakin' coyote, this last gasp of the old rum-guzzlin' frontier sheriffs, put you in irons an' hawk-tie you an' drive you off to jail!"
"Yes," replied Stewart, steadily.
"Well, by Gawd! You, Gene Stewart! What's come over you? Why, man, go in the house, an' I'll 'tend to this feller. Then tomorrow you can ride in an' give yourself up like a gentleman."
“No. I'll go. Thanks, Bill, for the way you and the boys would stick to me. Hurry, Hawe, before my mind changes.”
His voice broke at last, betraying the wonderful control he had kept over his passions. As he ceased speaking he seemed suddenly to become spiritless. He dropped his head.
When the man Sheeed came forward, jingling the iron fetters, Madeline's blood turned to fire. She would have forgiven Stewart then for lapsing into the kind of cowboy it had been her blind and sickly sentiment to abhor. This was a man's West—a man's game. At that moment, with her blood hot and racing, she would have gloried the action the violence which she had so deplored; she would have welcomed the action that had characterized Stewart's treatment of Don Carlos; she had in her the sudden dawning temper of a woman who had been assimilating the life and nature around her and who would not have turned her eyes away from a harsh and bloody deed.
But Stewart held forth his hands to be mancled. Then Madeline heard her own voice burst out in a ringing, imperious "Walt!"
Sneed dropped the manacles. Stewart's face took on a chalky whiteness. Hawe, in a slow, stupid embarrassment beyond his control, removed his sambrore in a respect that seemed wrenched from him.
"Mr. Hawe, I can prove to you that Stewart was not concerned in any way whatever with the crime for which you want to arrest him." The sheerif's stare underwent a blinking change. He coughed, stammered, and tried to speak. Manifestly, he had been thrown completely off his balance. Astonishment slowly merged into discomfiture.
"It was absolutely impossible for Stewart to have been connected with that assault," went on Madeline, swiftly, "for he was with me in the waiting room of the station at the moment the assault was made outside. The door was open. I heard the voices of quarrelling men. The language was Spanish. I heard a woman's voice mingling with the others. It, too, was Spanish, and I could not understand. But the tone was beeeching. Then I heard footsteps on the gravel. Just outside the door then there were hoarse, furious voices, a scuffle, a muffled shot, a woman's cry, the thud of a falling body, and rapid footsteps of a man running away. Next, the girl Bonita staggered into the door. She was white, trembling, terror-striken. She recognized Stewart, appealed to him. Stewart supported her and endeavored to calm her. He asked her if Danny Malns had been shot, or if he had done the shooting. The girl said no. She told Stewart that she had danced a little, flirted a little with vauques, and they had quarreled over her. Then Stewart took her outside and put her upon his horse. I saw the girl ride that horse down the street to disappear in the darkness."
While Madeline spoke another change appeared to be working in the man Haew. His sharp features fixed in an expression of craft.
"That's mighty interestin', Miss Hammond, 'most as interestin' as a story book," he said. "Now, since you're so obligin' a witness, I'd sure like to put a question or two. What time did you arrive at El Cajon that night?"
"It was after eleven o'clock," replied Madeline.

GREAT NORTHERN OPERATING AND EQUIPMENT COST ADVANCES
All the work that you do, all the work that everybody does, consists in moving from point to point yourself and in moving objects from one point to another. This is all that a railroad does. You know that it costs you something to do your own work. Do not forget that it costs the railroad immeasurably more to do its work, which is also your work, and without which the greater part of your labor and expense would be lost.
In traveling on a completely equipped train with dining, parlor and sleeping car service, the facilities are the same as in high class hotels. The cost to the traveler is immensely less.
Every item in the provision for both passenger and freight service costs more than it did. You travel over a mile of railroad track in a minute or two. This mile of track, exclusive of the grade and right of way, which cost $15,000 in 1913 now costs $25,000.
Here is a comparative list of the cost of Great Northern equipment ten years ago with the cost of similar equipment now:
Taxes have increased in these same ten years over 100 per cent. This makes a formidable addition to the operating expense of every railroad. But at the same time railroad freight and passenger rates have increased only about 40 per cent.
For everything we have, food, shelter, clothing, and transportation, we must pay. Transportation has made this country what it is, and if it is impaired the whole country suffers disaster. It is worth thinking about as a matter of self-interest as well as a matter of justice that the service is being rendered, under cost conditions most unfavorable to the carrier and growing yearly more difficult, at a price to the public so little over that of ten years ago.
Take these facts into consideration whenever you think or talk about railroad rates.

COSTS OF GREAT NORTHERN JUMP
Road Pays More, Public Less Than Decade Ago, Statement Shows
St. Paul, Aug. 13.—Transportation of the superior grade required to meet the needs and demands of the traveling and shipping public costs the Great Northern railway today more than double what it did ten years ago, while the increase in revenue for the use of these greatly improved facilities has been far less, it is emphasized in a statement by Chairman Louis W. Hill of the board of directors. Official reports disclose that the increase in the prices which the Great Northern must pay now for passenger and freight equipment and the cost of operation is from 100 to 150 per cent greater than a decade ago.
```markdown
```
In discussing this handicap under which the railroad is laboring, Chairman Hill called attention to the public need for adequate transportation, pointing out that all work involves the moving of persons or objects and that the factor of cost always is dominant. Because of the necessity for transportation, individual effort would be futile without the railroad and therefore it is important for the public to know what it costs to provide this service, he said.
"The railway traveler today enjoys the advantages of a high class hotel," said Chairman Hill. "Trains are fully equipped with dining, parlor and sleeping car with superior appointments such as will meet the demands of the traveling public. Naturally this is expensive, yet the cost to the traveler is far less than the charges of the hotel with corresponding facilities.
"Every item in the provision of both passenger and freight service costs far more than it did a few years ago. Passenger and freight shipments speed over a mile of railroad track in a minute or two. Undoubtedly few persons know that this mile of track, exclusive of the grade and right-of-way, which cost $15,000 in 1913 now costs $25,000. Other costs of railway service have increased as much more.
"Locomotives which cost $24,000 in 1913 now cost $54,000. Sleeping car costs have increased from $16,000 to $36,000 each; dining cars from $14,000 to $31,500; day coaches from $9,000 to $20,250; refrigerator cars from $1,200 to $2,700; ore cars from $800 to $1,800; box cars from $800 to $1,800 and flat cars from $650 to $1,462."
"Taxes have increased more than 100 per cent during the same ten years and are a big item of operating expense of every railroad. Yet at the same time railroad freight and passenger rates paid by the public for this much more costly service have increased only about 40 per cent.
"It is obvious that we must pay for everything we have, for food, shelter, clothing and transportation. Production and distribution of these and other essentials require transportation, which made possible the development of our country. And when transportation is impaired, the whole country suffers. As a matter of self-interest alone, as well as a matter of justice, this is worthy of deep thought. When there is talk of railroad rates, it is to the public interest to give careful consideration to the fact that this service is being given, under cost conditions most unfavorable to the carrier and growing more difficult every year, at a price to the public so little over that of ten years ago."
