Moffitt, dlrlver tor the Salem steam laundry, was badly In jured about 8:45 this morning at the Hotel Marlon, while ascending In the street elevator from, the basement. Moffitt had descended In the elevator to the basement, ih1 had failed to slip the bar that holds apart the two gates attached to the sidewalk. As the Marlon 'bus drove up, Moffltt's horse apparently became nervous and backed the laundry wagon against the west gate. Moffitt was coming up from the basement In the elevator just as the door fell, and the heavy Iron gate struck him on the head, tearing his right, ear, splitting his jaw and Inflicting a small scalp wound. Charlie Savage manager of the Ma rlon, took him to the office of Dr. W. B. Morse? on State) street. After re ceiving treatment, the driver went to his home at Union and Winter street. He will be laid up for several days, but nothing ser'ous is anticipated aa a result of his injuries. NEW YORK CITY WILL HAVE BIG LAND SHOW . J. J. Hill Offers $1,000 Prize Cup For Best Wheat At last, New York Is going to have a land show. There nas never Deen a land show In New York City there has never even been a world's fair. But, starting the morning of November 3rd and ending the evening or November 12th, ion, there will Be one or the Dig- Best and best land shows in tamous Madison Square Garden, New York City, lhat the world has ever seen the Amer ican Land and Irrigation Exposition. .New York City Is the largest Dort or entry for Immigrants In the world over one million (1,000,000) foreigners come to New York every year. Think of it a million a year! Most of them farmers some or mem are Deuer farmers than we are. This big land show will get most of these hard-working people "back to the land." It would be of tremendous benefit to the Northwest If some of thee people could be Induced to move out on the farms, and either buy land, If they have the means, or work for the Northwestern farmers until they get sufficient money to purchase farms of their own, as the Germans and Scandinavians did a gen eration ago. Instead of doing this, these people work for small wages in over crowded, congested centers like New York t'ltv. Thev do not know about the opportunities of the Northwest. All the readers of this paper are asked to do is to compete for the valu able J. .. Hill prize or one of the other niany prizes offered. Canada, the South, the Southwest, North, Northwest and East will all exhibit and show their best (Trains, fruits and other farm products. It is very necessary that the Northwest should make a showing better than that of any other section, so that the better class of these Immigrants, and of the thousands of native Americans, In and around New York City, who have the means to buy farms but do not under stand the possibilities of the Great Northwest, will come to our section, Instead of the others. Then the prizes are extremely valuable and are well worm wane. J. J. Hill Prize Cup James .T T-Till Phnlrmnn nf thi Hoard of Directors of the Great Northern Kalhvnv. offers a 11.0(1(1 tirlze CUD. five feet high and elaborately engraved, for the best 100 pounds of wheat raised in the United States In 1911 and exhib ited by the actual grower at the Amer ican Land and Irrigation Exposition. The conditions are easy, and any farmer In the United States stands a good chance to win this $1,000 cup. It would be a great honor and a wonderful advertisement to this locality if this cup were won by one of the readers of im paper ir it were won ov vou. The firent Northern RnilWHV tins always been ready to co-operate with any sincere effort to make the North west and the Northwestern farmer more Prosperous. They have issued a hand some four page leaflet printed In two colors with an illustration showing the James J. Hill J1.000 prize cup.

VALENTINE, as yet unaware of tbe presence of Rose Lane, leaned against the side of the vault, gasping for breath and endeavoring to gain firm control of himself. As for Red, on being confronted by Rose Lane he stopped short and gasp ed In alarm, "Then you naw us do It you saw Valentine at work:" The girl cut him short with an up raised hand. "Kitty, hurry, hurry!" she warned him In n low voice. ' Red continued on his way. "Don't worry, miss. She'll be all right In a few nilniifesr he cried over his shoulder. The girl coved again it ward tbe doorway whence she had retreated a moment before. Valentine, still oblivious to tbe near ness of Hose, raised Ills bands along tbe edge of tbe vault door, bis back toward tbe entrances lendlug to tbe room. "I beat you! I beat you and saved the little girl from you!" be murmured. L'p und dowu lie pressed his hands aguinst the enameled metal. "I beut you: I beat you!" Slowly he turned away, and as be raised bis eyes they met the implaca ble, scornful gnze of George Doyle. Valentine started bark. In the shad owy vault room he thought his eyes had played bim false, tuut lie saw only a vislou conjured into a tempo rary existence by overwrought uerves and a correspondingly disordered brain. lie pressed his h:ind to his forehead. Then the "vision" moved toward him. Yes, It was George Doyle. The ex-convlet stood transfixed, as though au unwilling wlmess of a ter ror Inspiring tragedy. And to him tbe denouement was all of tint. Doyle stood, bis hands clasped behind bis back, waiting for the other to speak. Valentine, worn out by the strain of tbe day'" events, was In no mood to foiitinne the tijiht against tbe cool, en loo In ling, tifne abiding detective. "So tills l. tbe end. Doyle." be finnl ly said, with u wtin, forced smile on his drawn lips. "Tbe jig Is up. Isn't thill about It!" The detective moved closer to the li'.ir.mii prey for whom he hnd so long nnd so patiently nud. so far as tbe government was concerned, had so ex pensively sought. "Looks that way to me. Jimmy. But. rpmcmber. buck there In Albany, I told you I'd get you some day unless you would do me a favor or two. Al ways remember that I gave you n chance to keep out of the 'pen' and you turned It down." Valentine bung his bead. Yes. ho would never cease to remember tbe al ternative of becoming a "stool pig eon;" that the detective hnd offered him the alternative of "peaching" on old Bill Avery and going scot free scot free until Doyle should command him to "turn up" some other friend and companion. "Come. Doyle, mnke a quick job of this," was his answer. "You win aft er all, I'll go without" The detective Interrupted Valentine by Inclining bis head and pointing to one side. The ex-convict turned to see Rose Lane. In whose affectionate embrace he hud lingered but a few minutes before on that memorable afternoon. A deadly pallor overspread the girl's cheeks. She drew near to the two meti. her hands clasped nervously ngninst her heaving bosom. "You saw:" exclaimed the distracted ."oting assistant rashler. peering spsircliingly HI tbe girl, and with an In voluntary' twitch of his elbow Indi cating the opened vault. Rose nodded her head gravely, stared at t lie mini she had loved and then at the threatening form of the detective. Valentine strode to her. clutched n pink rose from a bouquet fastened at the girl's girdle. He pressed It In both his bunds. "You won't mind my having that lower. I know." he snld brokenly. "I nm going to lie gone n long time and this 1 want you to know and remem ber through the years my love for you Is the only clean thing I ever knew. It Is complete, and It will nev ernever end." As he concluded he wheeled to face the detective. "That's all. Doyle," he said in hard ly audible toues. The central offlee man saw the ren! sign! flea lice of the situation. No one with the slightest morsel of Intelli gence could doubt that the beautiful young girl before him was Buffering as only a Iruc woman can wheu the one she loves is torn bodily from ber forever. As for Valentine well, there must be something good In hltn after all. rens4ined Doyle, if a girl like the Imuker's daughter could venture her whole life's happiness on the chance of his "going straight." The detective shifted uneasily on bis feet as Valen tine turned to him. "Er-didn't you have an an en gagement with er this young lady?" be queried hesitatingly. Rose caught a ray of encouragement In his toues. ."Yes! Year" she cried, springing forward, ber cheeks now aglow with the inspiration given by a newborn hope, "and It was an engagement that means my happiness, my love, my life and his life!" She reached forth her hands beseechingly toward Doyle. The officer glanced quickly behind him and around the room, ranking sure that there were no other wit nesses to his words: "Then" he hesitated "then I gun we'll itit cheat the stale of Mamachu tetf." Valentine grasped the arm of his long time foe. "You mean you mean Just what, Doyle?" he exclaimed excitedly. "I mean that the lady needs, you more than Mns8achusctt does,. ..Von IK nil and simple remedy for fT Elf CatmnKHtrFattU I i f hifh mirations. Irritation, alter.

With an iibrupt "Good day." the detective swung around and dis appeared through the door by which he had entered- went out forever from the life of Jimmy Valentine. Valentine addressed the girl with justifiable trepidation. "You understand" - Indicating the doorway through which Doyle hud made his exlt-"you know who whin he was?" Rose Lnne flung herself Into Valen tine's arms. "1 only know I love your sh cried passionately. He held her In fervid embrace. "And kuuwlng tbe truth about me that I"- "Perhaps I always knew," she whis pered fondly. "But if a woman loves she rejects that which does not 0t into ber dreniu. but if she loves as 1" Valeutine smothered ber words with his kisses. Then, raising his lips from hers for a single moment, he exclaimed In a voice that rang with the deter mination of a man who would yield his life ere he broke his sacred promise; "I'll live for you. Rose all for yon. And you'll learn that I inn a man once more a man among men of honor."
