He came, shabby as he was. and talked
many evenings with Geraldine Huston
and her brother, and the friendship grew
epace. For the low-voiced graceful girl
Heber began to feel something much
stronger than common regard. And he
resented it. He did not wish the torment
OF hopeless love added to his other trials,
so quite suddenly he said good-by TO his
friends and returned to Chicago.
He prospered here after a fashion-did
endless portraits for people, did work
for the newspapers and for magazines,
and exhibited dull green English scenes
in the shop windows. and people bought
them for their quaintness. So he was
sble to buy a home for his father and
mother, and kept himself steadily at his
money-getting. But he was not happy.
He longed to do more individual work
work which should not have to be con-
structed for a particular market-and he
could not rid himself of the haunting
thought Of Geraldine Huston.
One DAY. sitting in his studio, he told
a friend about it

Forty-three Persons are Still

Following the action of the French

dent I.oubet throughout the demon
stration against him yesterday. In
replying to the stewards of the Autenil
races, the President remarked:

and, TO prove that have no anger
with YOU, il there were races to-
morrow. I would attend them. l am
invited to witness the Grand Prix, on
Sunday next, and you may be sure l
will be present"
On his return to the Elysee, M.
I.oubet said to those who accompanied
him:
"All of my family opposed my be-
coming President, and had no desire
| to remain at the Elysee, but now, that
it is dangerous to be the chief o.
state, my duty is clear, and ! will
let my enemies, il | have any, be con-
pinced that shall accomplish my mis-.
sion to the end. =
OF the 100 persons arrested in con
nection with the demonstration, 43 are
still held in custody.
