THURSDAY, MAY 18. 1916. PLATTSMOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. PACE 7. THE NEW CLARION WILL N. HARBEN Copyright, 1914. by Harper & Brothers CHAPTER XVII. Abner In a Difficulty. S soon as Abner arrived in town on the morning of his conver sation with Mary while at his vIirlr breakfast he went to the A ofiice. Howard was there already and at work on an editorial. The young man's face was haggard. There were dark rings around his eyes, and his hands shook nervously.' "I see you boat me," Abner said in an effort at lightness. "Yon seem to believe that the early mornin' is the best time fer brain work." "Any occupation is bettrr than none right now." Howard said wistfully, "but there are times when brain work is next to impossible. Have yon seen Tole P.aker this morning?" Aimer nodded, and Howard went on hurriedly: "Then you know that I'm under sur veillance ?" j Abner nodded again. "That don't "Let 'im alone," Fulton muttered. make any difference," he answered. "It's onlj- a form that has to be got through with in in sech matters. A tiling like this has to be saddled on fiouiebod an" the authorities are afeatd t.y won't earn their wages ef they don't make some sort o' pretense o bein' on the job. At the proier time we'll show 'em a thing or two. The idea of accusin' a man o' yore stand in' " "Stop! Let's get down to facts." Howard shot a straight stare across his table into the old face bending to ward him. "You know I read law for awhile, Uncle Ab. "Well, I read enough and associated enough with lawyers and judges in my newspaper work in writing up various criminal cases to know that I am in a mighty tight hole. I am bound hand and foot by circum stantial evidence. I'm afraid that no lawjer in the world could free me. I can see a conviction of my guilt writ ten in every face I meet on the street. 1 see it in the way they all blink and shrink from me as I pass along." How ard rut his pencil down and raised both his hands to his head and sat still for a moment; then, as Abner was about to speak, he went on bluntly: '"I am Innocent, and yet my conscience Is not clear not wholly clear. If it were I think I could face It better. I did not kill Craig, but I would have done it if I had had the chance two hours after my fight with him. Now he is dead I feel different. I wonder how I could have been so enraged by any thing such a drunken, irresponsible creature could have said or done. But my conduct and furious threats will be held against me. This is my punish ment. It Is tough, but I will have to put up with it." Abner was so wrought up by this Hunt utterance that he was speechless, nis kindly mouth was drawn down at the corners, and his lips twitched. lie hung his hat np on its nail against the wall that he might have an excuse for turning his face away. lie was longer about it than was necessary and went on slowly to the water pail on an in verted box near by and drank from the rusty tin dipper, although he was not thirsty. lie felt Howard's gaze follow ing him and was hardly prepared for what he said when they faced each other agaiL. . . 'I don't feel so badly about having to go to Jail. Howard said, plunging into the subject Impulsively. "I don't care if they refuse me bail and they will, of course. I don't care so much for the fact that all this town and sur rounding country consider me guilty. It Isn't that that I'm thinking about that I thought about as I lay awake last night. I'm thinking about1 you, fcir. You put yourself out to buy this paper simply to help me. You gave me good advice all along, but I paid 1 no attention to it- Cow, what has I come of It? Why, with me in the 1 1 county lockup your Investment will go to ruin; with me on the gallows or in prison for life, people will sneer at your Judgment in. backing a wild, i hamra scarum fool that you ought to have turned down long ago and would i 1 uu uiiuu t. urru iuc j-uiu ill lilt? world. Almost with a rush Abner stepped forward. He put his hands on How ard's shoulders. lie looked into the young man's face while his own filled with emotion. "Don't, don't!" he all but sobbed. MYou ore too young to comprehend the most beautiful of all God's vast spiritual laws. I must talk plain. I've never had a son, noward. Ever since I was a young man some'n' in me has been screamin out fer fa therhood, tellin me that to be a father was the holiest highest height a man kin reach "bn arth. Some'n else be longs to the law o' fatherhood, an' that is sufferin' through love o the child. I've had experiences of many sorts in my life, but right now. my boy, lovin' you as I do an' gloryin' in yore beauti ful young manhood an chance to con quer difficulties an as I see you bowed an broken under this thing I have a realization of my Immortality a sort o' grip on it that I never had lefore. This trouble o yore'n seems to lift me right out o' my body and dissolve me into the very spirit o' God. It seems to me that all will end right somehow ef I fight hard enough an trust enough. "At present NI'm more like God in nature than I ever was, an, bein so, I know, as God knows, you see, that wrong cannot last forever. I know an other thing, an that Is that all Godless folks sooner or later have to acknowl edge a great, all pervadin' spiritual law and bow under it in abject humil ity. I've watched hundreds of rebel lions folks stagger on in defiance with 1 light jokes about Deity and the like, but in every case I've seed 'em stricken by grief, loss of fortune, disgrace or some'n or other that opened the'r eyes. Yore blovf has fell early, but it ain't any the less God sent. You'll weather tills storm. It may be a heavy one. heavier than we know of, but you'll sail out of It into calm sea and tinder clear sky. I'm sure of that, an' yet the pain of it can't be avoided. Every step toward heaven is fraught with fresh birth pangs. The one person, you know, that seemed meant fer me as a life companion was taken on the very eve of our union. Up to that minute, my boy. I never knowed what life as a whole meant. Up to then it was bound about with material things. Money, houses, bosses an' wagons, land an crops, the ability to make a slick trade, to git the best o' my neighbor, was all thar was to it, but after her death after I looked in vain into her dead face fer what had been thar like sun light shimmerin' on a delicate flower. drawin out the fragrance an scatterin' itto the air after that, I say, the whole world was changed fer me. I'd been a doubter an' scoffer like some o yore friends are now. but I couldn't doubt any longer. Her sweet sperit was som'er's it was too wonderful to be extinct an I wanted to link mine to it fer all time. "In my search fer light I went to shoulin' religious meetin's. Up to that time I "owed all sech excitcmeut was silly, but In my awful sorrow even that was actually a step nigher to God. Ef them folks had been bowin' down to ; sticks an' stones with sech hearts in 'em as they had, with that dazzlin' hope before 'em, the God I was learnin' to know couldn't turn from 'em. The truth is that he was in every atom of tht'r flesh an' bones. The truth is that God, let 'im be person, essence or jest principle, can never be like what any book or human bein' has described. When a body comes to me with a fresh religion and explains It and at the same time admits that it is only one o' ten thousand other beliefs, I know it ain't fer me, as much as I'd like to git the truth; but, on the other hand, I know it is the thing fer the man that holds to it, fer as a rule any belief p'intin' up ward is letter than none. I sometimes think that the reason thar is sech a jan gle of various creeds on the face of the earth is that God gives 'em to us the same as we give playin blocks to babies. We intend that the babies shall know more'n that about life some day, but the blocks are good enough to start 'em on." Leaving Howard to himself and say ing nothing of his intention. Abner went up to the little street near the courthouse which was called "Lawyers row" because five or six of the little one story brick building's there were used as offices for lawyers. One of these had a tin sign, from which the words "Hamilton Quinby, Attorney at Law," had been almost washed off by repeated rains. The door was open, and Abner went in. A tall man of fine build, ashock of bushy hair, a sweeping iron gray mus tache and a tuft of beard on his chin, stood smoking in the center of the room. On the-top of a desk with a roll ing cover rested an open leather bound tome, which the lawyer had been con sulting. "Good morning, AbneT," he nodded, closing the book. "Pole Baker said you wanted to Bee me about Howard's case, an I stayed over. ' I have got some minor matters to attend to at Spring town, but they kin wait till later." "I'm glad you did. Abner eyed the open door restlessly. "Hain't you got another room back thar?" glancing to ward the rear. "Thar ain't no use havin' every soul in town know I'm takin to you, an' they all look in as they pass. By gum! That woman almost twisted 'er fool neck off just then. Folks Is the very dickens to take a mite an' make a mountain of it when excitement o any sort is in the wind." "Yes, I've got a consulting room back there," Qumby returned, and he led the way through a doorway to the smallerroom in the rear. "Yes, you may think it is a funny thing fer me to come talkin' about Howard before he is even accused." Aurer began, as they seated them selves in the plain chairs, "but you'll admit that the situation is bad as it stands. Me an' Howard has got to keep that paper agoin', an the way folks is a-talkin is calculated to dam age our circulati'n. -We want to be let alone, you see, judge" Quinby had once been a justice of the peace "an' I 'lowed I'd feel better ef I had a chat with you. It can't do no harm nohow." Quinby's face was expressionless. He rolled his cigar between his lips. "I read till a late hour last night." he said in a matter of fact tone, as he closed his right eye to cut out the coil of smoke which rose close to the lids. "I wasn't sure myself on all points o' the law and wanted to be certain o' my ground." "You don't mean that you you've been makin out his case already?" Ab ner said in surprise. "Well, yes, I believe in knowin as nearly what I'm about as possible. I've been through several cases very much on a par with this, and I ought by this time to know something by experience. As I understand it, you ain't a rich man, an Howard has nothing. Even if his old daddy mortgaged all he's got he couldn't raise much money, and it would be plumb folly to attempt to make a long, expensive fight and be forced to give in at the end. "In every case like this I've advised my client to plead .guilty and throw himself on the mercy of the court. Howard was no doubt provoked to a great extent, and the courts are gen erally disposed to impose a light pen alty where a due show of contrition and humility is made at the outset." "But, judge, the boy is innocent," Ab ner said, firmly. Quinby leveled his stare on the old man's face. It was the calm look he had given many a witness that was be ing sharply cross questioned. "What makes you think so?' he in quired in the tone of a man of experi ence, humorins one of iiojnyatalL r "Because he says so."" Abner re turned. "Oh, he says so, does he? I see, I see. They always do at the outset. They do even to me right at first. You see, Ab ner, when a feller finds himself in the fix Howard is in he has no time to think; in fact, he has no mind to think with. That's why he needs level head ed legal advice. The first thing I tell them is to keep their mouths shut and to answer no questions to send every body to me, and when they come to me I tell them to mind their own business. Oh. yes, it is nothing but natural for Howard to take that stand. As a gen eral thing a feller that commits a deed like that is scared to death. "He sees his own end looming up in front, you see, and. being guilty, his imagination paints it a million times worse than it is." Abner had flushed slightly. lie rais ed his hand and almost shook his finger in the lawyer's face. "I'll tell you one thing." he said sharply, "an It's this, noward 'u'cf be a fool, and so would I, to go fer help to a lawyer that sets in adverse judgment on his case before he's even charged with the crime. You'll have to chaw a dif ferent sort o tobacco than you use now ef you want to handle this mat ter. You've got to drop the scales o' unbelief in the boy from yore blinded eyes an.' use 'em to help ferret out the feller that done the deed." "I wasn't deciding in advance at all," Quinby defended himself, with rising ire. "I was only using com mon sense methods. May I ask if you have thought of the evidence already brought out at the inquest?" "Yes. I have," Abner answered blunt ly. "I have, but that made no odds, knowin what I knoAv." The lawyer's heavy brows met in a belligerent frown. "Do you know of SIfer ly? "I've got a hard fight before me," said Abner, "and I ain't looking fer your sort to help.'' any way that he can establish an alibi prove where hg, spent the night on which Craig was shot?" "No, I don't, if the boy's word won't go," Abner answered. "It goes with me." "Well, . you ought to know that it won't go in court," Quinby retorted quite angrily. "If you don't I do. You seem to think a lawyer ought to fight a case "on any lines suggested by an excited client I don't. I lost cases in that way when, as a beardless boy. I first hung out my sningie. I've maae a reputation for lowering fines and penalties, and I don't want to go back ward. I could make myself the laugh- ing stock of the bar f the whole state if I went against my judgment." "I see yore p'int," Abner sneered. "Circumstances by accident git tangled about a innocent man, an he is advised by a high an' mighty legal expert to plead guilty so as to git as light pun ishment as possible. A feller as miser able as Howard is has to add to his sufferin by stearin' a lie an' disgrac in his folks to save his neck. I don't know how Howard is, bat I wouldn't take advice like that to save mine." "I'm afraid yon are unreasonable, Quinby retorted loftily. "I haven't said yet that I thought positively that Howard was guilty." "No, but you said some'n' jest as bad," Abner flared back. "You inti mated that you was goin' to put the boy on some sort o' rack to make 'im own up. Now, ef I owe you anything for yore advice sech as it is you may send me yore bill, but I'd cut off my right arm ruther'n trust Howard's life in yore hands.".. "I didn't ask for the case, under stand that." Quinby was now flushed with fury. "And, moreover, when-It has been thrashed out in court on any other line you'll regret that you didn't listen to me. You dbtf t owe me a cent. You are a farmer, Abner, not a lawyer, and you have let your emotions run away with you. Now that I'm out of the case 111 speak more plainly. That boy shot Craig, and he shot him delib erately and in revenge. He said he would do it, armed himself and was seen at Craig's gate half an hour be fore the killing. He started to escape through the woods. He spent the re mainder of the night tramping about no doubt half crazy. I'm glad I'm out of the case." . ;Som I. judge." Abner rose and put on his slouch hat- 'Tve got a terrible hard fight before me, an' I ain't lookin' fer yore sort to help." fTo Be Continued.) TELLS WHAT SHE THINKS.

Georgia May Fursman Marie, Mrs. Weston's maid Clarissa Selwynne Phillipa Fcrd June Elvidge Morton Conway Paul Gordon Lucius Waldeck is a social vulture, preying on his friends, and diverting suspicion by .his gentlemanly gra- ciousness. In a New York hotel lobby he is attracted by the porter carrying in a sickly child. While thus engrossed, he sees a magnificent emerald pinned in the dress of the child's grand mother. He determines to possess the jewel. Mrs. Weston has gone to St. Ann de Beaupre, near Quebec, Canada, in order to appeal to St. Ann's for the recovery of her granddaughter, at the time of the visit of the pilgrims, and Waldeck follows. During the procession of the pil grims Waldeck locates Mrs. Weston, who is still wearing- her emerald. That night he crawls up over the roof of the stable and gains admittance to Mrs. Weston's rooms. He chloroforms Mrs. Weston, and repeats the same cperation with the child and the maid. Then he secures the emerald. Months later Victoria and Sonia are in New York. The former has been a comrade only of Morton Conway, a rich young man, who, although be knows and appreciates the friendship existing between her and Victoria, is in love with Phillipa Ford, a mercen ary, materialistic young lady. Phillipa has become interested in a man who represents himself to be the secret agent of the Russian revolu tionists. The man is Waldeck. At a ball Victoria sees Waldeck and recognizes him in a vague sort of a way. fane tries to warn pniiupa, wno chooses to consider the warning as jealousy, Phillipa believing that Vic- toiia is trying to cause trouble in her r.ffair with Waldeck in order to cause j trouble between Phillipa and Norton, so that Norton will leave Phillipa and return to Victoria!

Then he starts to make an exit from this country. Phillipa receives a note from Wal deck, asking her to deliver a box which he had intrusted to her and which he said contained the collec tions for the Russian revolutionists, to a stateroom in an outgoing steam er. Phillipa still believes in the inno cence of Waldeck. Victoria notifies the police of her opinion that -Waldeck is the man wanted for murder of the child in Can ada. Detectives discover the note which he sent to Phillipa regarding the box, so the police go to the steam er and await the appointed hour when Phillipa is to deliver the box to the mysterious woman. At the right moment they pounce on both Phillipa and the other wo man, who is Marie, the former maid of Mrs. Weston's, and who has been Waldeck's accomplice in all the work. The box is discovered to contain the jewels and valuables stolen by Wal deck. Waldeck, realizing that there is no hope of escape, commits suicide.' Morton Conway realizes that he has been wasting his affections on Phil lipa, whose true character has been disclosed. And he realizes that all the suspicion, caused by Phillipa's tongue and directed at Victoria, are unjust. He appreciates her goodness and all promises well with them. AUTOS TO THE CEMETERY.
