'- "All ot this hue and cry after Tracy. - the, escaped convict, out my way makes ' " t .poor reading in my opinion." said "' Herg McNanu of Seattle, who was a lTnfted States Marshal when that state ws a territory: "If Jim Purdy were " v-alive I'll bet he'd bring Tracy In quick , enough, and. alive, at that. ''"Jim PurUy was Town Marshal of Walla Walla when that town whs craggy to-live In. He kept the peace in Walla Walla pretty well, but he earned his pay. ' Watihlngton then was a great hlcling-out Corher lor fugitive bad men. .. "Xlne of them, a shecpherder, turned gambler, from Pocatello, drifted into Wal la 'Walla in kind of a hurry one day. Purdy knew why this fellow, whose iudm was Dan Costlgan, had got out of. i Idaho on .the lope, and when Costlgan , got In the two had a bit of a talk. Purdy ! told Costlgan that he didn't Intend to . ' bother him if he. was good. 1 " It's none of my business what yotf've . been doing down the line; , evens if 1 do - know about It,' Purdy said to the bad ' man, so long as you behave here. But you've got -to behave, Dan.' ' ,' -, 'Coatlgan said that He would. Four days later he-got' Into a wrangle with a ." barkeeper and shot hint. Not caring to take chances on any gun play with Jim " Prdy, whom be knew to be a dead shot, 0 Costlgan hiked for it." Tt was two months before Purdy heard ' that Costlgan was over In II Waco, a set-' ' tlement on Baker's Bay, at the mouth, of the Cofumbla River. He oiled his guns r and . started after Costlgan. , ""Ths firet'man he met a'a'he got out .' of the. spruce forest and on to the main street of II Waco was Dan Costlgan. , He saw Dan first -and could have killed him where he stood with his back turned. But this wasn't Purdy. He wanted to see If Costlgan would avail himself of a .chance to come along easy like. So he 1 hailed Costlgan. ' ," 'Hello, Lan.' Jim called out. and Costlgan wheeled about pretty sudden. .'Costlgan didn't go for his guns when he aaw Purdy. He . saw . that Purdy's guns weren't out and, without exactlv v .wanting to open up proceedings,, he prob ably felt that he could go after his guns , as quick as Purdy could get his ar tillery cut. If the time for -that came. '" 'Coming along, Dan r Purdy Inquired as be walked up to Costlgan with his thumbs hi his belt strap. " "No.J: ald Costlgan, i'm hot. , V 'Better had.

"'Nope,' replied Costlgan, shaking his head. 'Can't see It.' 'All right.', said Purdy. 'But I m a-going to take you back, Dan. You know that I don't like to shoot a man up none. But .as long as you're bound not to oome along nice and decent, why, then, Dan, you want to look out for me. I'm sure a-going to take you back a hull lot.' " 'Well, you get me, that's al, said Costlgan, and he began to back down the street. ' - "He didn't go for his guns. He knew that that would be dangerous, and he felt pretty sure that x-urdy wasn't going to get' his Irons out right then. Soj k Just kept on backing, watching Pusdy narrowly.' Purdy Just stood with' h!s thumbs in his belt strap and watched Costlgan back around the corner. "Jim walked to the western end of the settlement, and got accommodations In the shack of a Portugese salmon .fisher man. ,He knew that Costlgan couldn't very 'well get '-out -of II Waco. So he felt pretty easy. "After washing up at the Portugese's shack Jim walked down to the main street to get a drink and to locate Costl guft. Purdy found that Costlgan was bunking off In , a . shack that he'd fitted up down near' the bay. and that he'd been picking up a pretty fair living since his advent in II Waco playing poker with the salmon fishermen.- "Purdy strolled over to the shack that was pointed out to him as Co'stlgan's. It was In the afternoon. nlonat -toward sun-' down. Jim pounded on Costlgan's door, and Costlgan wearing his gun belt and two guns, opened It. , " Come In,' said Dan. and Purdy walked In. and sat on. the edge of Oos tlgan's bunk. " 'Dan, said Purdy. persuasively.' 'you sure are-aetlng like a Juniper tenderfoot. That fellow you plugged back In Walla Walla Isn't dead , yet wasn't", anyway.' when I left to come after you. You'd better qome along back, with me nlc? and easy.' It would hurt me a lot to have to go back without you, any how. -Couldn't think o" doing, that, any way you put It,' "Costlgan only shook his hand stub bornly.

But I'll be taking you back1 In it day or fto, Dan. and without shooting you up none, too, I hope.'. -Well, I'm pretty comfortable here good-night, Jim,' said Costlgan, and' then Purdy bucked to the door, opened It sud denly with his left hand, darted out back ward, slammed the door shut, took about four Jumps in the pitchy darkness, and then stg-sagged to the left of the trail and crouched. . ' " . "It was a pretty, good thing tor Jim that he did that. He had no sooner squat ted to the left of tha trail than Costl gan's door suddenly opened, and Costl gun fired four shots (or general results at the middle of the trail, where Jim might have been walking If he hadn't ha' been too old a bird. Then Costlgan slammed his door shut,1 bolted It, and Purdy. got up and walked down, the trail to town. , . "He made up' his mind then, that, as Costlgan had seen tli to do him that way, he would take Costlgan on the following day some old way. "Refreshed after good night's rest, Purdy strolled Into IJ Waco, pn the fol lowing morning." He Was Hitting at break fast in a Chink etaurant, facing the door, when, through the window, he saw Costlgan walking by. .Costlgan was tak ing the middle of the street for his, and he kept Joggling his head from side to side, looking mighty, alert, . . V . "Purdy could have got UP' from the restaurant table then, walked -to the door, put both gons on Costlgan and thu have nailed him. But Jim' hated to do things behind a man's back. Moreover, he' considered that there might still be a. chance that Costlgan would crawfish during the day and surrender. "There was only ene decent gtn-mlll !n II Waco and that was Jawbone Hay den's. . After his breakfast Jim walked over there, thinking he i m!ht find Coti gen. Costlgan wasn't there. " 'He generally gets In 'long toward 11 o'clock,' Hoyden told PUrdy, and then the two had u quiet little. confab. "About a Quarter' to U the doorway of the little rum shark was Suddenly dark ened and Cosrigaji. looking pretty sav nge and hunted, stood framed within It Both hands were ' pn ' tils guns. He glanced wiftfy around the ginmill in saw only old rnan Harden standing be hind the bar. " ".'Any et rangers around, Jawbones?' Cos'.igan inquired huskily, walking toward the bar. " 'Nobody but ' Hayden started ( to say, when suddenly Jim Purdy jumped up from behind the bar, Where he had been conceded, and said quietly; " 'Nobody but me, Dan.' "He hud lioth guns an-Coltlgon. "It was probably the overwhelming surprise of tins situation that caused Cos tlgan to .o a fool thing then. He made a lightning dab with, both hand , for hl guns. "Purdy plugged Costlgan in the right shoulder,4 and Costtgari's right arm fell useless at his side. , "Other hand up, Dan," said Purdy, cheerfully. ' ' "Costlgan tried to get the other arm up, but the shock had been a little too many :'or him, and so he sank down, saying. Ail right, Jim. you needn't bother to shoot 1:0 more I'll go along with, you,' "Purdy put away his guns, raced liitp the strev ., lm .eased the' first horse and wagon he met, -lifted Cotlgan In his arms and laid him In the bottom of the wagon, nnd drove him llckety-spllt down to trie bay. Here Purdy again took Costlgan In his arms and placed him In a rowboat. whlcfi hp rowed over to Fort Catlby, four miles the trail leading there from li Waco was too rough for a wagon then. "When he got to the post the soldiers helped Jim parry Costlgan, who was pretty limp from the Joss of blood, to the post hospital, whore the surgeon dressed the bud man's wound and after ward ex racted the bullet. Purdy lived at the barracks with the soldiers until tho surgeon told him Costlgan was well enough to travel, and then he took Cos tlgan to Astoria and Portland -by boat. :nd from Portland to Walla Walla on the cars. They grouped Cottlgan's various crimes and gave him a 15-year Federal prison sentence. "Jim Purdy was u..led In a pitched possee fight, with Wyoming rustlers a few yenrs after that. But I'll bet lfhe were alive today and would go, after Tracy, he'd fetch Tracy In, and thert'd be some parts of Tracy . alive, at that." '. : .

Just at this Important season there is no forest supervisor of the north half of tho Cascade reserve. W. H. H. Dufur who has Ailed thai position for several years, and who was recently recommended for reappointment. Is vigorously opposed by Representative Moody. In, fact, the Secretary of the In terior has declared the place vacant and there Is not much hope of the matter be ing straightened out for some time. Senator Mitchell and' Representative Tongue have declared their -disapproval of the appointment of M. P. Isenberg, whom Mr. Moody-seeks to have succeed Mr.- Dufur. There Is a charge ot incom petency lodged against Isenberg, which Is seemingly well founded. ' ' "It Is alleged that the charges lodged against Dufur have been made by dis gruntled 1 angers.
