He had been a criminal all his life, starting as a sneak thief and graduat­ ing as a strong-arm man. He was mid- dlejoged, undersized, though strong a stubble of beard fringed his unwashed face, his eye* were shifty. He could just read and his writing abilities were limited to being able to sign bis name, . Of course nobody thought he had the ghost of a chance of escaping on the manslaughter charge. Be slouched Into the box; and took the oath Indifferently. “The prisoner will tell his story In his own way," his counsel had said. Be glanced Indifferently at the jury, who sat back With bored expressions.' They had already made up their minds. Tlie Judge had made up his. It was to be<twenty yearn. “I sure did kill Stiff Larrigan.” The prisoner’s counsel elevated his eyebrows and smiled at the prosecut­ ing attorney. That was not the wny to begin. The prosecuting attorney smiled'’ back at the other. He didn’t care what sentence the prisoner got; It wins all In the day’s work to him, and there was a woman charged, with homicide to follow. ,Much more Inter­ esting tbau the affairs of this prison- bird, , “ I sure did kill him—tmt listen, yer honor. He played a d—n low trick—” The judge rapped smartly. “ Such language will not be tolerated in court,” he said. The prisoner looked apologetic. “It’s tills way, yer honor," he said. “ Stiff Larrigan,and me was pards. We pulled off a whole.bag o f tricks and the police never got wise to us. There was five burglartea.la Philadelphia—’’ Sensation. What was the prisoner’s counsel doing, permitting him to give his case away?' “ Then there was that case In Pitts­ burg. Stiff, me and Bill Oates framed It up. The cops got us aiid .I got fif­ teen years In the pen. I ain’t kicking. I served twelve and got out on good- conduct. “Afore I went np for trlaM got word from Stiff. If I wouldn't give certain things away he’d see that me wife and the kid didn’t come to want. So I took me medicine and sold nix. “Fifteen years Js a long time, yep honor, even when .three of It gits docked, .But,!I served me time and come out. Me. wife had stopped com­ ing after the first year or two. Pact Is she died.” " , He drew bis rugged, sleeve across his eye. The Judge, emotionally provoked; wondered whether twenty-five years wouldn’t do better than twenty* “ She died of hunger, yer honor. It was the bad year—no work, and Stiff, he hadn’t done what He’d said he’d do. When I come out hap tombstone had already began to topple over,” “Confine yourself to the evidence,” snarled the judge. The prisoner sniffed. “I wanted to git even with Stiff Larrigan over that; but after a while I give up troubling. It didn’t seem to matter ,when she’d been dead so long, and. I f ’ Stiff' had forgotten, well, I guess lots of other* would have. "Strange,.thing was about the kid, though. You see, yer honor, the old woman had been proud. Wouldn't let the neighbors know she was starving— but the kid—well, she’d saved all the scraps fer him. After she died some one took him away. I found at last that it was Stiff. Guessed he’d had a; spark of conscience or something. < “I set off to find him. But Stiff had got mixed up In some trouble and was lying low. And then they looked .on me as a stool-pigeon for a longtime and wouldn't let me see him, You git for­ gotten after serving twelve year. “But at last I did find Stiff. It was by accident more’n anything else. I was in a scatter and saw three men talking together, and overheard how they was planning to pull off a trick. I knew one of them for Stiff immedi­ ate. The other was lied Bube. “The third was Dick. Kid of seven­ teen, yer honor, and Stiff had brought him up to be a sneak thief like his daddy started. X listened, and I thought of his mother, and I picked up an Iron bar I seed and laid Stiff out. That’s all, yer honor,” The Jury stirred in the b ox The prosecuting attorney woke up too late to realize that he had thrown away his chances. The jury consUued with­ out retiring. * agreed upon your verdict?” “We find the prisoner not guilty.” “Prisoner, you are discharged,” snapped the judge. “You’ve had a lucky escape.” The prisoner’s eyes turned toward the court A boy of seventeen, seated among the visitors, cattle quickly to­ ward lilm. They clasped hands and, arm In arm, left the court together. “Call the next easel” snapped the Judge, How Doctor Doyle Started.
