President Wilson, according to the

Is certain to act.
The opinion Is expressed by Gaulota that
after this President Wilson is hardly
likely to settle differences with Germany
diplomatically, "as It Is clear that Amer

The money was transmitted by the
Wyoming Stock Growers' association,
which haa been holding It since Septem
ber. 1K4. when Its Inspector at Chicago
discovered a steer branded with a cross
curb C m a shipment made by J. M.
Carey A Bro. from Casper. Not until re-
Icently waa it established that the cross
curb C cattlo were owned by Sheehan
Broa., a firm of which oCn Sheehan Is
the surviving member.
Th delivery of the money recalls that
twenty-two years ago Wyoming beef waa
bringing only J cents on th Chicago
market, which ws the beat market to
which Wyoming stockmen could ship at
that time. The Sheehan ateer weighed
t.lM pounds and brought SlS.SS. The dif
ference betwen th selling nrlc and th
price which Sheehan haa received after
twenty-two years was deducted for ex
penses of Inspection and dlcoverr.

to have murdered David rpllock. I fall
to see, your honor, where tho somewhat
rambling fable In slang which the witness
Is telling has any beating upon this case."
"Your honor, and gentlemen of the
Jury." Langdon's voice rose before the
words of the prosecutor had died away,
"the story which the witness Is telling
has everything to do with the question
of the murder of David Pollock. It
will show how again and again he force

For a moment the Judge hesitated, and
the court held' its breath aggressive,
even antagonistic at the mere thought of
losing the gay little witness who was
looking from the Judge to Iangdon with
such childishly startled eyes. Then hl

turning to taingdnn. "I would suggest :
that you Instruct your witness to conflna j
her testimony to mere statements of !
fact."
The entire court room, not excepting
the Jury, heaved a sigh of relief, and
I-anKdon's face showed a flush of tri
umph as he asked:
"How long did your engagement In "A
Woman's Pledge' last. Mis Barton'"
"Six weeks, but we only got sulary for
four."
"Where did the tour end?"
"It didn't end. It blew up In a one-
tank rube town called Prindlevtlle. It I
was one of those town that have the
railroad station on one side of Main
street, the hotel and the 'opry' house at
the other and the rest -of the buildings
scattered about wherever they happened
to drop."
Again a gust of laughter lilted through
the dingy room, but Langdon frowned
and shook his head at Amy,
"Never mind descriptions," he " said
more sharply than he had spoken ao far,
for he feared that the Judge In a revulsion
of feeling might stop his witness before
she had told the story that meant so
much In the case for the defence. But
Amy, far from being awed, pouted at
him with a gay little mouse and went on
with her story In her own fashion. 1
"We were all feeling pretty grouchy
when we hit Prlndleville, because It. had j
been a losing tour, the ghost hadn't
walked for a month, and nobody knew 1
whether we'd ever get back to New York j
or not."
'Did you give the performance that j
night?" broke In langdon Impatiently. I
"Well, we, started to, but it never got
beyond the ticket-taking stage, for the
sheriff blew In with a badge as big as
a saucer and said that he'd been ordered
to hold our trunks and props for unpaid
board bills in the last four towns, and
that meant that we were, stranded with
Broadway doing the Sheridan act many
miles away."
"What did you do?"
"We did what a company always does
we went back to the hotel and said what
we thought of the producer and tried to
borrow carfare from the hotel proprietor.
That was when we saw David Pollbck
again."
"Do you mean that Mr. Pollock waa t'n I
the hotel whwn you got there?"
"No, but he arrived In town by the last
train, and walked Into the lobby while
we were there."
"Did he speak to you?"
"Yes. He came over and said he wa
going through the town on a business
trip, and seeing Mary's name on an eight
sheet you know big poster he had
Jumped off on Impulse. He said he was
awfully eorry that the tour had ended so
unfortunstely, and begged her to let him
arrange for our return to New York."
