For little while, as an outsome of
her church-going (and also, TO do her
justice, because she was a trim, good
looking girl in spite of her pallor) she
had a beau" But it was a colorless
love affair and died a natural death due
to her ill-heaIth and consequent inability
to attend gatherings of young people,
where such attachments are famed into
matrimonial fame.
Still, it was Mary's nearest approach to
an emOtion-and she cried a little over
it. If you've never possessed a great
glowing ruby you are prone to think the
garnet that slips through your fingers a
loss. She never alluded TO ii but once.
That was when a new physician summon
ed by the CaXtons, diagnosed her case,
mistakenly, as afterward appeared, as tu-
berculosis in an incipient stage.
How fortunate I didn't get married

blighted some little. Then she stop

thought.

To her accustomed burdens Mary was

however, a fresh anxiety had been knock
ing at her soul.
Ever since autumn began her attacks

ten Inconvenience By them and she had
caught Mrs. Caxton's eyes resting upon
her scrutinizingly, even pityingly, as if
there were something in her mind that
she was loath to speak.
Mary held Jean close when these
thoughts came and tried to forget them.
One morning the blow fell. Mrs Cax-
ton was abrupt 1t was not easy to d.s-
miss so faithful a soul and she knew
what the children's grief would be. Her
usual suavity deserted her.

are not well enough to keep on with your
work. I shall set about finding some one
else at once"

The suddenness of 1t stung Mary into a

If her best friend had turned upon her
Mrs. Caxton could not have been more
amazed. Her first impulse was toward
indignation. But she was a woman of
discernment. and divining something of
the girls mind, was governed by q wiser

And every night when she was IN bed
she stared with wide-open, sleepless eyes
at the vision of her life-an invalids life
in her fathers house. a poor place ruled
by the vagaries of an unlovely woman,

The Case of Mary Giles

Mary Giles was neither interpretive
nor imaginative. But there were mo-
ments when life-her life in particular
seemed an interminable journey through
a leaden world.
At no time was 1t a joy; rather a cir
cumstance to be borne as best one might
thong with its concomitants, poverty and
iu-health.
She was a Christian with all that i'm
plies to one bred in an evangelical at
mosphere. She read her Bible and prayed
as conscientiously as she performed the
duties of nursery governess TO the little
Caxtons. 1t would be difficult TO deter
mine from which source she derived most
comfort. She knew she ought TO find
solace for her ills in holy writ, but she
reflected quietly sometimes that the touch
of jeans warm little body banished sad
ness more effectually. For she was fond
of her small charges, especially the
younger.
Which is really the reason I overlook
her frequent attacks of Illness" Mrs.
friends.
They were frequent, these attacks, and
agonizing. From Monday until Saturday
Mary lived in dread Of rnem. When three
weeks elapsed without payment of her
debt Of pain she grew almost hopeful.
But she was never permitted to remain
so long.
None of the physicians she had seen
seemed to understand her case. Certain
~ none helped her.
"a curious affection of the heart" was
the general verdict. 1T will wear away In
time Or
And the pause was oninous.
They all gave her q tonic to build up
her system and some powders to deaden
the pain. Mary always took the powders
because the powerful drugs they contain
ed sometimes brought Oblivion, but the
tonic she Systematically forgot Long
years of torture had rendered her a lit
tie skeptical regarding its efficacy. And
this was one Of the reasons, PERHAPS
why Mrs. Caxton called her stubborn"
and asserted that she took no care of
herself.

Motions to Quash Overruled in Ing

PHILADELPHIA, May 25.-Judge Nc
Pherson in the United States district court
today overruied the motions made yester-
day to quash the indictments charging
Ellery p. Ingham, ex-Unted States district
attorney, and Harvey X. hewitt, his law
partner and former assistant, with aiding
and abetting conspiracy and bribery in the
revenue cigar stamp counterfeiting plot,
of which VIM. NJ, Jacobs, the Lancaster
cigar manufacturer, was the leader.
District Attorney Beck asked that May
% be set as the date of the trial, but ,Oun-
sci for Ingl,am and hewitt asked permis-
sion to file an application for continuance,
on the ground of illness of one of his
clients. His application was received. The
principal reason advanced by the defense
in their motion to quash was that Secret
Service Operative McManus, who is the
principal witness against them, WAS not an
officer of the United States within the
meaning of the statute. Judge Mcpherson
said that question could not be decided

Present Outlook for Republican Nomi-
nation for Governor of Ohio.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 25-With the
near approach of the republican state con-
vention the indications multiply that SEN
ator Hanna will control it. 1t is practically
certain now that notwithstanding the long
lead that II. NJ. Daugherty Of Fayette has
over all the other candidates he cannot Sc
cure the nomination for governor. 1t will
go either to Judge George K. Nash who is
Senator Hanna's prime favcrite or some one
equally acceptable whose nomination would
o1fer conditions of party harmony which
that of Judge Nash could not give There
is no doubt that Senator Hanna could force
the nomination of Judge Nash if he cared
to offend certain elements of the party to
whom 1t may be objectionable.
FROM movements of friends of Senator
Hanna in Scioto. Wood and Knox counties
it seems likely that if Nash is dropped by
the senator it Will be to take up Albert
Douglass of Ross county. Douglass has al
ways been warm friend of Gov Bushnell
but that friendship has not drawn him int O
the facuonal trouble that grew out of the
last two senatorial contests. 1t now looks
as though the nomination for governor
would go to either Nash or Douglass.
