have found out only Urogan had almost forcibly torn him away That safe and what It contained was In nla thoughts, bothered him. until he had to do something to drive It away. There waa but one way to do that. 3pen the little sale and find out! So It was that an hour later Hooker was Itack In Judge Oaf nods library He opened the outer safe a second time without any trouble at all. but the little one bothered him considerably. He worked a quarter of an hour; he sweat with anxiety, stopping every few minutes lo look towards (he library door. In an hour or two It would begin to gel light, and he wanted to be far away from the spot before that happened. His patience was rewarded at .uai. The combination of the Utile safe yielded lo his deft fingers He had removed the glove Irom that hand and. after opening the door of the safe, carefully wiped away all Irates of finger-marks with his handkerchief, before looking in-
side.
The little safe was empty' Not a Jewel nor a hank note in It! Nothing but two bundles of papers, which Hooker thrust aside after making certain there was no money concealed In their folds. He had been cheated, pltiyed with! Anger made the veins on his face swell out. He tried lo find a secret compartment in the safe, but tils experience in such malters soon told him there was not a possibility of that. Me closed Ihe lltlle sale, after wiping off all fingermarks. and angrily slammed the door of Hie omei safe It shul will) a snap that siailled him. He shut oft the dark lantern, went, after a moment, opened the llbrarc door and looked down Ihe hallway Every, thing was quiet. He bethought him of the possibility of finger-marks on the door of Hie larger safe and returned and wiped it all over carefully. restored the handkerchief to Ills pocked, and started to leave The humidor on the Judge s desk caught his eye. (Irogan hadn’t even bought him the cigar he had promised to' Hooker went quickly to the desk, opened the lid of the humidor and grabbed a handful of the cigars winch he was »tutting Into his pocket when a voice shouted at him: "What are you doing'* 8lop that!" He whirled about. In the library door stood Judge Osgood, thin and frail, a bathrobe about him. a stout, heavy cane in his bands. He advsmed Into the room, swung at the Intruder with the l ane. Hooker seised the end of the walking stick in his hands, dragged It from Osgoods grasp, and raised it lo strike him over the head. "Help 1 Help!” cried Osgood, thrusting up his hands to shield his head from the threatened blow Hooker brought Ihe cane down hard on the Judge's wrists Ills hands dropped to his sides, the second blow i runched on Osgood's head The can* broke with the foite of the Impact. Osgood reeling and halt blind, rushed at his assailant Hooker graldted him around the throat and bent him tun !< over the desk until his head touched Hie humidor Help! Police!" screamed Judge Osgood. Let go! You're killing
Bitf'"
Hooker's fingers closed tightei about his victim s throat from which came a dreadful gurgling sound He beat the Judge's bead up and down on the desk. When he Hnall. removed his fingers from Osgood s throat, the Judge's body turned,
slipped and fell to the floor
Hooker, trembling violently, took another handful of cigars from .the •till open humidor, shut the lid. and made his wsy out of Ihe library, all but stumbling over the body on the
floor.
Judge Moffett sagged forward In ■ be chair to which he was hound Hie eves were nearly swollen slgit. hie faro cut and bleeding.

"(lee, you wouldn’t even have a cigarette on you." He got his hut and started for the
door.
"Don't do anything rash till I get back, fella, will you? Just think things over. That's all you gotta do—just think things over.” Mike, his inuscle.s and bones tired and aching still from the terrible beating he had received at the hands of the gangsters, climbed painfully down the two flights of steps and down to the corner cigar and newsstand. He asked for four packs of cigarettes and some matches, gave the clerk a dollar hill. He got his change and had started fur the door when a pile of evening news-

papers caught his eyes with their scare headlines. He stopped dead, an expression of Intense surprise and excitement on his face. He (licked up a paper, tossed a dime
to the clerk, and ran store, forgetting hts
pains.
Ills eyes were still fastened cut the ; sumed
of "Moffett!” "It's Moffett!" were heard, and the rapping of Judge Krsklne's gavel failed to restore order. As they reached the gate in the railing, Mike pushed Moffett ahead Of him Into the enclosure reserved for those having business In the court. Moffett again shook himself free of Mike and rushed upon the platform in front of the police Judge’s bench. "Hello, Krsklne. how are you?" he said, stretcehing out his hand. Ersklne looked coldly down at him. Ignoring the proffered hand In the awkward pause that followed, Moffett lost a little of his assurance "I'm tiling a complaint against this man for assault wlth t a deadly weapon, assault with Inti nt to kill and with kidnapping.” A detective, his shield showing on the lapel of his coat, had quietly approached Judge Moffett, and now seised him by the arms. Moffett turned angrily: "Take your hands off me!" "All right, if you won't take tt like a gentleman, Moffett. I gut a warrant for your arrest for murder Come down out of there!" "Murder!” shouted someone in the courtroom. "Arrested for nntri der!" "Judge Moffett is arrested for murder!" An old ling, in the front line of prisoners, rushed forward, thrust her face almost Into that of the Night Court Magistrate, (Hunting her linger at him and cackling: "Hats off. His Honor the Judge!” A policeman quickly thrust her hack Into line. "The Judge will he Judged," she added, fiercely. "Murder?" said Moffett to the deteetlve. "What murder?” Ersklne leaned forward over hi* bench. "Moffelt, you are accused of *h« murder of Judge William Osgood " "Osgood? You're crazy! Why I saw Osgood only He caugVil himself suddenly, with a sharp intake of breath. "Is Judge Osgood I dead?" "Yes." replied the police Judge, "And you are accusing me of his I murder?" "Yes. und I needn't caution you that anything you say will he taken (town in writing and may he used against you." "You lelling me ihe law?" inter- | rupted Moffett, belligerently. "Are ■ there any reporters here?" Jim Thorpe and four or live other reporters swarmed arnund Moffelt. He turned his back on Judge Ersklne, and addressed the report-
CM'S.
"Judge Ersklne has cautioned me not to talk. This Is the time 1 will talk. 1 have been accused of almost every crime It Is possible to Imagine, and no one has brought forward one single Iota of evidence And now my enemies are attacking
■ ait of the ( me in this outrageous, unwarrant-.-trlies and -si manner They are accusing mo

screaming headlines as he walked hastily hack to the apartment "JEIH1E OHtiOOD Ml ItHEREIV shrieked the streamer EMINENT .11 HIST BEATEN To DEATH AND STRANGLED IN HIS OWN HOME,'' said one headline, while another proclaimed MAGISTRATE MOFFETT WANTED MV THE 1’OLICE. TEN THOESAND DOLLARS REWARD FOR INFORMA T lo N LEADING To HIS AR-
REST."
As soon as Mike had unlocked the door of his apartment he began to untie the rope that hound Judge Moffett. Jerked him to bis feet, slack his hul on his head and pulled him out of the room. Jim Thorpe, reporter for the Press, leaned against Judge Krsklue s bench In police court. “Any news of Moffett yet?" he
asked
"No. nothing " Even us the Judge spoke there wa* a commotion In the rear of the court loom, a growing murmur of Voices and staitled oxi laimations as the outer door was pushed open and. Mike Thomas entered holding the disheveled figure of Judge Moffett by the arm The buz* of convernation Ini teased as many of the peiions in the police court recognized Judge Moffelt of Ihe Night ('ourt Judge Ersklne rapped with his gavel for order Moffett suddenly Jerked himself free of Mike, seized the latter by the arm and started dragging him up the aisle towards the Judge's bench. "Come on. you,” he said with a grim chuckle. “I'm running things
now '"
People stood up In the court, siewUviJ Into the aisle si.J shoal*
manner: "Have >ou hoys got that down'.' I'm facing these charges • alnily, fearlessly, and I tell you, gentlemen, that t la tfl be ihe end of this sort of thing. I demand in Immediate hearing on these lUt-
atle charges."
As he finished speaking, a nervous assistant dlstm i attorney made Ins way to Ihe .1 idgi s bench and lea,ned towards him "If you please, Your Honor, ths District Attorney Is not ready al this time I would • tgest that th« matter tie let go ov*r lor the grand

"You see.

OBITUARY “Sunset ami evening star And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the
bar
When I put hut to sea.” L'nannounced unheralded ut from the Infinite in space, in time, in mind came that cleat call and ,,(,.■ wv loved
so well answered.
Melvin Aubrey, son of William and Lydia Everting, was born ip Elwnod, Ind., on March the eighteenth, nineteen hundred four and died in ( in.-in-nati, May ninth, nineteen hundred thirty-three, a few weeks over twen-ty-nine years, yet how much life in
that brief span of years!
At an early age, aftej hie grandmother’s death in 1918, Melvin Aubrey, realizing his best friend was gone, took up the burden of life for himself and in the course of o short while enlisted with the l s regulars an*! was -ent to the Mexican border ’ Upon returning to civil life again, he was employed as a railroad bridge builder. In the employ of the
Biii Four he met his death.
Melvin Aubrey possessed an un-
happy disposition and ul-
thmigh throughout his life there were many hardships, disappointments and I suffering-, ht* bore them nobly and ^
biavely, not complaining.
Real true happiness came to him when on April 23, 1932, he was united in marriage to Gail, daughter of W. F. and Goldie Judy, and when they established a little home so sacredly dear to them. Just a few blissful months was he given the sweet privilege of returning from hi-' labors t>: his hmi.e and bride he loved with all : his heart and soul. He was so capable! of loving home and family and; friends, especially did he love chil-1 dren, who affectionately knew him ns Mel. They had no better friend than Mel. While they cannot fully I realise, yet they know he is gone and .hey will never cease to miss him and j
cherish his memory.
Truly Melvin was a friend to man. Although he had not identified him-| self with the church (always saying! he was not good enough) he was a careful reader and Bible student He I'os.-eswd many beautiful traits cf character. In this shot aequaintan c and life in the Judy family and community he endeared himself to all. We shall long remember t at | (beery smile and happy greeting, tin* hearty handshake, good fellowship
and stur l> manhi od.
Melvin literally breathed and lived the spirit ‘‘Not for self hut for
others.”
How we love to think of the wot Is of Jesus in the scripture: “I>*t him that would come after me deny hu, self, take up his cross and follow me.” We find comfort in an account of the last judgment: “And the King shall answer and say unt i them, ‘Verily 1 say unto you, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of tin* least of these, my hreth-rn, we have done t unto me.’ ” Surely out loss is his gain, hut hn.v great is our loss! His place can never la* filled hut we shall cherish his memniy and thunk our Maker that we ever knew him and loved him so well, looking forward to that time and place where there are no heart aches, no disappointments. Theie an* none in heaven. “I can riot say, and I will net say That he is dead, he is just away! With a cheery smile and a wave of
the hatvl
He has wandered into an unknown
land,
And left us dreaming h* w- very fair It needs must lx* for he lingi rs there.” Besides his heartbroken wife, he leaves to mourn their loss his father of Elwood, three brothers, Sherman of Logansport, Herman of Elwood, Uleo of Indianup .lis; a sister Lola of Indianapolis; two aunts, Mrs. Bertha Blue and I’earl Harley Tharp of Indianapolis; one uncle, his mother’s brother ( lex eland Soshe of Kiwi od, also survive his -tep-motber Anna and step-sister Maggie Purtee and a number of nieces and nephews. Many friends deeply feel their loss. “Sunset and evening hells, And after that the dark. And may there he no sadness nf fare-
wells
