Is Pardoned When Jardine Makes Plea The Omaha police have received in- formation that six masked men boarded Northwestern extra train No. 290 near Craig Wednesdav and at the point of firearms robbed the crew of all they possessed. The authorities further assert that their information was sufficient evidence to mark the holdups as members of the Industrial Workers of the World. J. J. Rogers, secretary of the local organization, who was sentenced to fifteen days in the workhouse Tues- day, was pardoned with a fellow mem- ber on_recommendation of Commis- sioner Jardine. Other members arrested and ar- raigned before Judge Kubat Tuesday afternoon were given the privilege of leaving the city or serving five days in jail. Most of them decided to leave. Heavy Trade in Revolvers Is Reported to Chief Chief of Police Dunn has informa- tion that Douglas street second-hand stores are doing a rushing business in revolvers. “We should have a law to control the sale of firearms. Some cities pro- hibit even displaying them in win- dows,” said the chief. Members of the ‘rolice department have been instructed to watch the sale of revolvers to irresponsible persons and to arrest those who are carrying shooting irons Company City National Bank Bldg. Wheat Prices Jump Up _A_t the Start Wheat opened with a heavy bull movement and a rise from yesterday’s close of as much as 4% cents on the Omaha market due to shorts covering on the report of black rust and heat damage in the Canadian fields, By noon the market had slackened and eased off from the high mark of $1.18 to $1.17%. The close yesterday was $1.1334 and the opening figures for the morning 51.14}’;@11% on Septem- ber futures. The receipts at the Omaha market were 265 cars, as com- pared with 11 a year ago. Black rust and heat blight were said to be extending the damage area rapidly to the north., Estimates of yields appeared to be valueless, as the crop was shrinking constantly, in quantity and quality as well.

Lioutenant Jarvis Hope is detailed by the | Unlted States naval board to Inveatigate and roport his findings on the invention of Dr. Ralph Burke, which serves to bring the submarine to a state of perfection. The Ueutenant arrives In Valdava and ia wel- comed by the inventor and his daughter, Clea On the trial trip ef the inventor's boat, a Japanese helper is surprised in the act of examining the mechanism of the ventilating device. Hope reports favorably on the new device, but thers are othera in- terested n it. An attempt to burglarise Dr. Burke's laboratory falls, but later Cleo finds him murdered in his bedroom. Cleo solls her fathor's books to et money; later she tin With Hope re anly to find it in flames.

They escape fram Hope, but return to dynamite the .hack. The conapirators fall to harm Hope and Cleo. They manage to reach Sandsboro, where Dr. Owen has one of the books, Each of the others approach the doctor, but he refuses to hear them. He arranges to meet Hope at the hotel with the book. Morton poses as Hope and but for an earthquake would have possessed the volume. Cleo Is captured by Morton and taken In his friend’ roplane to a lonel cabin in the mountains. She finds there ti book for which they search. Fortunatel she gets a note to Hops, who, with Hook, starts to their rescus.

The imposing edifice that his imagination had erected had suddenly collapsed. With Cleo's escape ended his scheme of forcibly marrying her and thus ob- taining possession of the fortune which she had inherited from Calvin Montgomery. And, as though this were not enough, the secret of the submarine, on finding which he had staked everything, had slipped through his very fingers and was now, he was convinced, in the hands of his rival, the man whom he hated more than any other—Jarvis Hope. The lavish expenditures he had made in prosecuting the search had almost exhausted his means. Gerald Morton was a desperate ' and a dangerous man. “Well," demanded Olga, when her anger had somewhat subsided, “what are we going to do about it? There is nothing to be gained by sulking like disappointed children." “We are going to follow them” said Morton grimly. “I'm going to get that formula if I have to kill them both.” > “That,” said Olga approvingly, “is the way to talk.

She had help from outside, of course.” “What's this?" exclaimed Olga, spying on the table the two book _ “Merciful heaven!” she cried, point- ing to Patten's name on the Hylelf of one of them. “They’re the very books we have been looking for! How did they get here?” “I've no more idea than you have,” said Marion, utterly stupefied. “1 didn't see a sign of any books when [ brought the girl here. Of all the hellish coincidences! To think that I should have stumbled on the cabin of the very man we have been try- ing to find and not have known it.” “You may well call it a hellish co- incidence,” she snapped, holdin u the volume from which Hope ha cul: the key of the code. “This tells the story. The naval officer that you are always sneering at has been too smart for you. He has not onli found his way here and rescued the girl, but he has evidently discovered the secret of the submarine.

But suddenly a wind squall leaped out at them from a canyon over which they were passing; the frail machine reeled and quivered before the blow, and, de- spite Morton's desperate efforts turned sideways, capsized and nlunfld like a wounded bird into the gulf below, An hour or so later a party of cow- punchers, returning to their ranch after rounding up a bunch of strays in the hills, saw on the rocky slope of the canyon a tangled mass of canvass, wood_and steel, Galloping up, they preceived, half buried beneath the wreckage of the aeroplane, the bodies of Olga and Morton. “They're still breathing, boys," pronounced one of the punchers when he and his companions had succeeded in extricating the inan- imate forms. “They're in pretty bad shape, The girl's ribs are all stove in and I'm afraid the fellow's cracked his skull. Bill, you chase down to the ranch and bring up the spring wagon. Better put in a mattress and plenty of blunfleu, and bring along some whisky. Send one of the boys off to town for the doctor—and tell him to get a move on, too. Thuse people are hurt mighty bad." So that when Morton and Olga regained consciousness, days later, they found themselves in a ranch house in a mountain valley, with cowboys nursing them back to health. (To Be Continued Tomorrow.) Hot Wind Here 22 Years Ago Recalled On Anniversary Twenty-two s ago Friday Nebraska was plunged into a deep gloom. For a hot wind, like a blast from a fiery furnace, had blown its devastat- ing breath across the state and the corn crop had been burned to a crisp. The hot wind came on Juiy 26. ; “1 shall never forget that day,” said Colonel Welsh of the weather burcau. [ rode home at noon on an open Far- nam car and the wind was so hot that we had to turn our heads to get our breath. The temperature was 106, “On May 19 of that year there were killing frosts and all the corn had to be replanted. They expected about half a crop until that hot wind came. “With a total failure in 1894, anr— tial failure in 1895 and Bryan in 1896," said the colonel, “the country was almost used up. “Today it would be possible to have such a failure and no special harm would be done the state. Farmers would say it was unfortunate and they'd order out their automobiles and have a good time until time to put in a new crop. But in those days the farmers were very paor and the crop meant everything.” Plumbing Thief Proves To Be Student of the Law William Ryan, itinerant, is evidently a student of law, as well as a plumb- ing thief, for in police coure he ac- cused Sam Pavolik, 123 North Tenth street, of trying to railroad him to the penitentiary for the theft of some lead ipe.

NO RAIN IN SIGHT TODAY “Corn has a few more days, and then if we don’t get rain it is going to go back fast.” This seems to be the general opinion of the railroad offi- cials of Omaha. / The Northwestern office says that corn is all right as far as moisture in the ground for some time yet, but that the hot weather is having a bad effect on the fertilization of the plants, which are just now in the silk and tassle stage. Cool weather and a little rain would make a fine crop, for the plants are exceptionally well developed, R. W, Lovelace of the Burlington, who came down through the northern and western parts of the state last Saturday, scoffs at the forebodings of injury to the corn. He says that he never saw such fine, well-developed cornstalks, and no perceptible “fir- ing.” He admits, however, that the state as a whole would be greatly benefited by a rain and cooler weather, Hottest Day of Year at Chicago.
