It was about the time that the Bu-|
chanan theatrical troupe came to Blue
Duck by stage for a week's engage-
ment in that “popular playhouse, the
Adelphi,” that the community was ad-
vised of “Jake” Thompson's having
resumed beating his wife. Thompson
owned a grass range some three miles
from Blue Duck, and his wife. Body
and soul, the little woman who had |
given her frail self to him years be- |
fore was possessed by the big. hulk-
ing proprietor of the range. So far
as she was concerned Blue Duck would
never have known of her troubles,
but wife-beating was an unpopular
sport in the new cow and wheat coun-
try and Blue Duck was not long in
learning that Thompson indulged in {t.
He was quietly warned what
quences would follow if he did not
cease, and for six months his wife
enjoyed immunity. Then, of a sudden,
Thompson let his temper gain the
upper hand and one day knocked the
woman down as she was getting into
his wagon in front of Sloan's grocery.
Blue Duck growled and waited. Af-
ter that reports came in frequently
from the south trail that Mrs. Thomp
son could be heard screaming and
crying from within the shack, and
Fulton of Flat Creek said it was his
personal opinion that the woman would
be killed before the year was out,
The afternoon of the night that the
Buchanan company was to open with
“Black-Eyed Susan, Blue Duck was
lounging in the © Hard” caravan-
sary and listening to “Gentleman” Ed
relate a personal meeting which he
once had with Tom Karl of the old
Bostonian organization. As was his
wont, Ed was speaking slowly and
clearly.
“Of course,” he said, “if we could
have the Bostonians in Blue Duck for
even a single night they would make
a fortune and we have a treat. When
you hear Tom Karl sing in ‘The Mus-
Keteers' you'll talk no more about
your own voices. Why Knudson,” ad-
dressing a big Scandinavian sprawled
over the pool table, “you think you
can ging a drinking song—you're not

“I tink,” he growled, “Meester Karl

An-glish, but me sing so gude as

Blue Duck sympathetically laughed,
for Blue Duck far had heard nol
sweeter voice than the bellowing one
of Knudson, but Ed shook his head
He knew. Smoke clouds curled above
his head as he pulled at his pipe, and
he was quite evidently bent on teas
ing Knudson when the double front
doors of the’ “No. 1 Hard” banged open
and Halvorson of Edwards half plung-
ed, half fell in. He gathersd himself
though, in time to save reaching the
floor and gasped out:
“Thompson's killing his wife.”

“1 don't believe, boys,” said “Con.

mands that no woman be injured when

It was a foregone conclusion that he
would meet Thompson and endeavor
to convince him of the error of his

SNOWPLOW INVENTED BY A WO-
MAN.
A railway snowplow is rather a
strange thing for a woman to invent,
but a New England woman's device
has practical advantages which recom-
mend its use by rallways and street
car lines. The chief feature of the
apparatus is that it will cut through |
a drift of crust or packed snow about
as easy as an ordinary plow removes |
a light drift. This is accomplished |
by first disintegrating the ice and!

mounted in the mouth of the plow,
when it is an easy matter to dispose
