The man who brought the news had not come to the county seat for that pur- | pose; he was just passing through, and having heard of the sheoting it occurred to him that possibly he ought to mention the matter He did not know the name > man who had been killed nor that of the man who had done the killing. He did not even know at which of the four camps the homicide had been com- niltted. Someone had casually men- tioned the matter to him as he was on his way to the county seat, and he in turn in a casual way mentioned it to the sheriff. The people on Elk Creek were no more excited over the affair than was this im- perturbable informant. It was not un- common that a man should be killed on Elk Creek,and they did not bother much such things A wood chopper or less was of no consequence to If some half-dozen or more chop- shoulda have been killed the Elk Creek country would not have gone into mourning. The choppers themselves were big, husky, reckless devils, quiet and indus- trious encugh when no whiskey was to be hac, but ugly, desperate, and blood- thirsty when drunk. There were no towns within convenient distance of the camps, and the choppers’ opportunities for amusement were consequently few— even such rough forms of amusement and pleasure as wood choppers crave. The only recreation they had was to oc- easionally get drunk and kill each other. There were few settlers on Elk Creek, and it sometimes happened that the news of a killing never got beyond the limits of the camp in which the tragedy had taken place. They had their own crude notion of these choppers. If the killing were unprovoked, premeditated or malt- cious they decorated the most conveni- ent limb with the body of the offénder; if, on the other hand, it was a fair fight or there was justification for the act, they buried the victim—if they had time —congratulated the survivor and thought no more about it. The sheriff of Park County, Dan King —‘Big Dan” he was generally called— had peculiar ideas about indiscriminate homicide which were in conflict with the views of the Elk Creek people on that subject. He had “given it cut cold” when he was “runnin’ fer offis’ that he would arrest any man on Elk Creek or any number of men on E‘'k Creek who might be guilty of violating the iaw; if necessary, he would arrest all the men on Elk Creek, even if the infant indus- try of lumbering should be thereby sus- pended. He was a handy man in a fight. He was as big as any man on Elk Creek, and, as he expressed it. could “swalJler as rnuch sand as any of ‘em.” Fighting was one of Big Dan's weak- eating was another. He was combative most of the time and hungry all the time. j He left Pine Grove early in the morn- ing expecting to arrive at the first lum- ber camp in time for a noonday dinner. To make sure of this he had taken a “short cut’ from the valley through the timber. It had been some time since the sheriff had ridden through the forest, and once among the big trees he about more them. pers justice nesses; moments more, he | | | If he only had somc exrurt | eee: eRe himself, mmel of his told should be gna... saddle. for calling upon Eli, even the shadow of an excure it would relieve him from the humiiia unwelco:ine guest trees, a man ting position of an Big Dan was fertile in reco of Ingenuiiy., He soon bethought him of a good excuse for calling upon Ell. Pos sibly the ranchmean could give him sor informaticn abort the killing. Yes, it was plainly his duty to see Eli and find out what be knew, if anything, about the reported homicite in the lumber camp. Big Dan had never been to Eli's ranch, but he knew that by following Elk Creek to its head waters he could easily find it. A half hour late: he saw a light shining from a cabin window near the head of the valley. “Hullo,” he called, near the door. “Hullo, you,” came an answering voice,and a moment later Eli was stand- ing in the doorway. “I'm Dan King, the sheriff. I hear there’s been a killin’ up this way, an’ I come up to see about it.” If Eli's face had been clearly visible. Big Dan would have seen it grow pale, but the Hight was at the ranchman’s back, and the only thing the sheriff no- ticed was a rifle leaning against the wall within easy reach of the man in the doorway. “Dunno nothin’ about it, sheriff,” growled Eli, as Dan dismounted. “I'm lookin’ fer a place to put up over night; ain't had no feed since sun up, an’ I'm as hungry as a coyote; thought mebbe I could camp with you till morn- in’,"’ said the sheriff. “T ain't never turned nobody away from my cabin,” replied Eli, “but we ain’t got no grub sich as you are used to. You may have to sicep in the eor- ral, ez we're purty crowded with the wimmin folks.” This meager offer of hospitality, re- luctently spoken, was gladly accepted by Big Dan. There were but two rooms in Wii's eabin. The sheriff was conducted into the larger one, which served as a sitting room, parlor an? bedresm. It was late in the summer, and Eli had a brisk fire in the big fireplace, which served the double purpose of dispensing heat and light “Sorry I can’t offer you some grub you'd like,” said Ell, “but the fact is, we ain't got no meat; ain't had none fer a month.” A savory smell came from the adjoin- ing room, where supper was being pre- pared, for Eli and his family had not had their evening meal. “Well, now, Mister Williams, you know I ain’t no ippycure, but whatever that {se cookin’ will do fer me; it don’t need no apollergy,” replied the sheriff. Eli's face again turned suddenly pale. He excused himself and left the room, while Tobe, his 18-year-old son, enter- tained the sheriff. Whea Eli returned Dan did not hear him. The sheri'f had his back to the door, and the ranchman came in silently behind him, holding a rifle on a line with Dan's*head. The first intimation the guest had of his host’s return was when he heard the command : “Throw up your hands, sheriff !" Rig Dan’s hands went up promptly, and then Tobe “covered” the officer with a six-shooter. “See here, sheriff.” said Eli, “before this thing goes any further we've got to come to an understanding. Now, of as he reined up became confused as to the cardinal points of the compass. He saw the sun cross the meridian without having found the camp. Late in the afternon | he came to a camp—a deserted one; it had been abandoned a year previous. There were numerous trails and old | “logging roads” through the woods. He | i ' | ' followed one that seemed most recently made, but before he had travelled a mile it ended abruptly among the big trees. Then he tried another, and still another, but with no better success. Finally he was compelled to admit to himself that he wa: lost. He was ravenously hun- gry, having eaten nothing since early morning. It was twilight; soon it would be night. From far up in the hills where the pines grew thick and straight and tall came the screams of a puma and the answer- ing cry of a lynx, but he had no fear of these animals; he had heard “mountain lions” and “‘bob cats’ before. He had never known fear of ary kind, unless it was at the thought that some day he might “git ketched out,” as he was now, and starve to death. If he had not been furngry he would have unsaddled his broncho and passed the night in the woods; his couch, the thick layers of pine needles; his pillow, a big California saddle; his lullaby, the whisper of the pines as the breath of the mountains stirred their young branches. Under the circumstances he decided to “keep on rustlin’ ” until he “struck grub.’ To go back to Pine Grove was out of the question. Evenif he were certain of the direction he could not reach there before morning. One cannot gallop through the Elk Creek country at night. The first problem was to get out of the woods; this problem was solved by the broncho, who had been given free retn, and in a short time Dan heard the nolsy gurgling little Elk Creek as it blusfered and laughed its way to the South Platte. Near the head of the Creek lived a ranchman named Eli Williams, who came to the county seat once a year to pay his taxes, and at no other time un- less “drawn’’ onajury. The knowledge that Eli's ranch was somewhere within a short ride did not have a very cheering effect on the big sheriff, considering his famished condilion, for Dan and Eli were, in a sense, enemies. They be- longed to antagonistic political parties, and Fli had strenuously oppesed Dan's election. The ranchiman was such a masterful politician in his locality that he succeeded in casting the solid Elk Creek vote, forty-three in all, against the sheriff. The majority on Elk Creek against Dan would have been larger,but most of the choppers got helplessly drunk as soon as they arrived in town and never went near the polls. Under any other circumstances the big sheriff would not have thought of going to Eli’s ranch, but hunger was gnawing at him like a she wolf at a bone, Big Dan was a proud man in some respects. The idea of intruding as a guest at the ranch of his political enemy was repugnant, but on the prin- ciple that a live coward is better than a dead hero Dan had ingeniously argued with himself that an humble man lined with food was better than a haughty one stretched out cold and stark in a mountain valley—a victim of starva- tion. This big hulk of a sheriff was a perfect slave to his appetite. Ina few BAI | ter be a trial,” replied Eli. —— course, it’s your business to see that the laws Is obeyed, an’ [ ain’t got nothin’ ag’in you on that account. Seein’ as we're here by ourselves, T don’t mind telin’ you I done thet killin’ myself. It was a groundhog case—I had ter kill him.” “In that case you'd better be car'ful how you talk, ’cause it'll be used ag’in you on the trial.” “T ain't makin’ no figgrers there's goin’ hear you're a white man, an’ in that case we'll squar’ this right here ‘fore sup- per.” “You've got the drop on me, Mr. Wil- said Pig Dan.in a manner meant to be excessively polite, “but you can't squar’ no killin’ with me. You kim shot me, but you can't git out o’ the country —if you don’t shoot, I'm a-goin’ to arrest you jest as soon 7s you iower that gun. You're in a mighty ticklish place, Mr. Williams. You've got ter shoot or g90 to gaol. I'm a-waitin’ fer you ter make up your mind.” “But I had ter kill him,” protested Ell. “He was comin’ aroun’ here every day botherin’ the wimmin folks till they got skeered of him.” “IT ain't a judgin’ of the case, Mister Williams,” said Dan. ““Mebbe you ought to a killed him, mebbe not. I ain’t no jury; I'm only arrestin’ of you.” The irony of the latter statement made Eli laugh. “I'm a gittin’ tired, Mr. Williams, a holdin’ my hands up; I wish you'd shoot or give up pretty guick.” Tobe unbuckled the sheriff's belt and relieved him of his weapons; then he was allowed to lower his hands. “Air ye hungry, sheriff ?” “JT could eat a saddle blanket, Mr. Wil- Hams.” “Reckon you could eat a piece 0 him ?” “Him !" gasped the sheriff. “Yaas, sir; him.” “Eat him! You ain't a-goin’ ter eat him ?” “Ya-as. sir: I'm a-goin’ ter eat him: ain’t nothin’ else up here to eat. Now, tf vou eat some of him ain't you just as guilty under the law as I be fer killin’ him ?” asked Eli. “T ain’t hungry enough fer that,’ said the sheriff. “We run out o’ meat, an’ a man can't starve,” continued Eli; “‘leastwise I ain't a-goin’ to. If we hadn't been on the pint of starvin’ I wovldn't a’shot liams,”’ him. Clear case o” self-defence, ain't omy Notwithstanding the fact that the sheriff was ravenous!y hungry the bare thovgeht of eating a man made him sick. but the cold-blooded recital of Eli had aroused in him a morbid curiosity. “Frow did you cook him ?” he asked. “Stew,” replied Eli, sniffing. “Smell him ?” Big Dan sniffed also, but the odor was no longer savory to him. It was all clear to Big Dan now. This ran was insane—a maniac. Why had he not noticed before how the ranch- man’s eyes glittered, and what a va- eant expression was on his face? And this maniac was holding a cocked rifle within a few feet of his head. It was time to use discretion and diplomacy, “Mister Williams,” said the sheriff, “Tl weaken; put down your gun an’ I'll help you eat him. * * * When the sheriff pushed back his chair YS OWN SOAP __—_ 77_—_—_—— Prize Competition for Bright Children.

The “wimmin folks” did not catch the full import of the whispered words, but they referred to the game laws and a hot place to which they might be consigned for all the sheriff cared under the pres- ent circumstances. STRONG DRINK. It's Terrible Effects ! A Shattered Nervous System Built Up and S'rengthened by Paine’s Celety Compound. It is in the combined perfection of sen- eation, motion, intelligence and speech that man excels all created animals. The brain, that grand centre of sensa- tion and perception, aud the whole ner- vous system, are wonderjully made, and man’s happiness and very life depend upon their condition of health. The human brain and the nervous sys- tem become imp ired, shattered and bro- ken down in various ways. Careless liv- ing, loose habits and over-indulgences, when persisted in, and eontinued for a length of time, tend to wreck and destroy the whole nervous organ!sm. There is no form of disease that can more rapidly shatter the system, or more surely lead to death, than the use of strong drink. Its effects are felt in every nerve and tissue, and its poison can be traced in every drop of blood. 5 It will plant courage and hope in the hearts of many men who are brokendown, and whose nervous systems are completely shattered, to learn that, with a firm deter- mination to avcid strong drink, their bodies can be rebuilt, their nerves made strong, their blood purified, and life made happy and worth living. This grand work of re-creation can be accomplished by the use of Paine’s Celery Compound, nature’s great life reetorer. No medical agency in the world is so well adapted for the re- building of brain and body. Mr. Samue] 8. Guild, of Ellershouse, Hanis Co., N. S.. writes as follows :— Gill **T wish to express my gratitude for the great good accomplished in my case by your Paine’s Celery Compound. I had conimenced using strong drink when quite young, with the result that my whole eys- tem was run-down and sl.attered. I was under the care of several doctors, but they did not seem to understand my case, and could do nothing for me. I commenced using yonr Paine’s Celery Compound, and it soon made me anew man. My nervous system is completely buiit up, my appetite natural and healthy, and I feel better and stronger than ever before. Paine’s Celery Compound has done these wonders for me, and I cannot thank you sufficiently.” PHOTCGRAPHY Superior workmanship, re fined finish prices combine to make these and moderate Photos the most satisfactory in Charlottetown +o-day.

Qvesec, June 3.—There has been con- siderable discussion in this city, both among the medical fraternity and private citizens, with regard to the numerous un- disputed cures from various diseases of the kidneys through the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. The matter has been not only discussed privately among the friends and acquaintances of those who have re- ceived benefits from the use of the remedy named, but has been chronicied in public press. The general consensus ‘of opinion is that the medicine has undrgone a thorough test and has proved itself fully deserving of the great praise which has been bestowed upon it. Canon Rutherford, 16 year old, and his cousin, 19, fought a duel with dirks, near Hogeye, Arkansas, yesterday. The lads disliked each other from childhood and the fight was the outcome of an old feud. Both were fatally wounded. 15 Years of Itching. W.

I tried eight other pile ointments and so-called remedies with no permanent relief to the intense itching and stinging, which irritat ed by scratching, would bleed and ulcer ate.
