Serena tripping closely at her heels.
John greeted his sister affectionately
before addressing his intended bride.
Then you have not changed your
mind YETI" he asked, half gloomily.
Serena pouted, and tossed her head
defantly.
"Of course not! I amt the kind to
change my mind after say thing
she retorted, significantly.
"yery we'll"
John looked resigned. as if he had
made up his mind for the sacrifice;
but his handsome face looked trou-
bled and doWncast.
Aunt Rodilla seized a moment to
bounce out to the Kitchen, as a relief
to her Indignation.
Bella" she commanded, abruptly,
bring in a glass of cherry wine.
Brother John looks like he needed a
little stimulation of some sort"
And Aunt Rodllla hurried back,
while Bella rolled down her sleeves,
smoothed out the folds OF H~r apron,
and carried the glass of wine on a
tray to the parlor door.
Brother John stood in the centre Of
the room, tall and broad-shouldered,
with Spanish-brown eyes. dark. way
inc hair, and moustache tawny as
lions name: but with a grave, re-
! signed look on his dark, handsome fea-
tures-Serona lowering near, her black
eyes cleaning triunphantly.
Bella stood for half a second on
the threshold of the door; then there
was a crash, a cry of Jack and
Aunt Rodillas goblet lay in shattered
! fragments on the floor, the ruby-rcd
wine splashing over the carpet and the
gold-and-crimson wallpaper, and broth
er John was holding Bella, half-faint-
ing, in his arms, showering kisses on
the pale cheeks and tremulous coral
red lips.
"What. is the meaning of this?' de-
handed Serena, in violent tones.
"What's this girl to you, John Gro
ver?"
John clasped the slender form more
closely in his arms, and looked def
antly into Serena's flashing eyes.
"She is my wife" he answered, tri-
umphantly.
Finding that her well-laid plans had
thus gone "agley," Miss Serena
founced anGrily from the house.
And brother John took the first oc-
casion to explain to his sister how he
had secretly married Bella two years
ago, her guardian being opposed
the match. The boat on which they
took their bridal tour had been
wrecked, the young couple separated
and both had been reported lost. And
Bella, having no proof of her marriage,
had chosen to retain her maiden
name.

Here is a new problem for those who
say that true etiquette is founded on
kindness and unselfishness. What
sort of Il title shall be given the WON.
an physician who is married when her
name is mentioned with her husbands?
We all know Of cases where a capable
woman has been forced to the front
by the inefficiency of her husband. If
she by her skill as a physician is earn
ing the income which supports the
family and has secured a reasonable
degree Of eminence in her profession,
should her visiting cards be printed
Mr.. and DR.. or Dr.. and Mr., or the
humble Mr.. and Mrs? There are solid
objections to each and every one Of
these forms, so the easiest way to
settle it is 10 have separate cards for
husband and wife. But that is no
help to those unfortunate enough to
address envelopes Of invitation to the
unconyentionally balanced couple.
Really it is a genuine puzzle for the
etiquette lawmaker to solve for Il per-
picked public which wishes to be mod
ern in both mentality and manners.
Vice Chancellor Grey decided
case involving a mortgage for $1,000,
the transfer of which to George II.
Beucker of Philadelphia by Miss
Hanna McFadden OF Atlantic City
was alleged to have been made as a
Gift lust before the death of Miss
McFadden. The vice chancellor in
his opinion says: "Gifts made just be-
fore death are not favored in law for
the reason that this is a mode of trans
fer by mere delivery, and proof there
of has to be made when death has
closed the lips of the claimed donor"
The story of Cape Nome is another
illustration of the fact that men take
all risks, defy all dangers and endure
all hardships in their search for gold.
Mott 'ng upsets their reason more
quickly or completely than reported
gold discovery.

A BATHER,S PREDICAMENT.
Remains in Water Too Long and Has
to Walk Home in His Bath
Ing Suit.

Frank Mckee, the theatrical man
ager, was not in cheerful frame of
mind the other evening. as. clad in a
bathing suit. he walked half mile
from the beach a Sea Gate to his home.
He wasinveig Ching against bathing mas
ters and especially against one of he
calling, Henry Weinzer, He also men-
toned in his sotto voce, John Burns,
assistant to WeinZer.
Certain persons who met him asked
him if he had lost bet. Instead of re-
plying he made remarks about the
management of bathing houses at Sea
Gate which were construed to be Sc
verely critical.
Mr. Mckee as soon as he dressed
went back to the bathing house in
he had deposited with the bathing
master. He could get no trace of either
Weinzer or Burns. Mr.. Mckee re-
manned in the water longer than he
intended. and when he. returned the
bathing houses were closed.
He tried to break into the Office in
order to get the key to his individual
bathhouse. He was unable to do so,
and was compelled to go to his homo
without any other adornment than
his bathing suit. He was worried about
his watch and jewelry, worth 5000, and
1922 which he had given Weinzer for
safekeeping.

TO BE READY CHRISTMAS.
The Washington Equestriaa Statue
Of Gen. John A. Logan Being
Made In ROne.

Before the snow flies an equestrian
statue Of Gen. John A. Logan will be
erected in Washington city. 1t will
be placed in Iowa Circle, located about
a half mile in direct line south of the
residence of Mrs. Logan, and the
statue, when in position. can be seen
from the portico of her home. The
pedestal, which is handsome bronze
affair of rare artistic merit and
beauty, is already in position, Mr..
Franklin Simmons. the sculptor, COM
ing from Rome for the purpose of SUI
perintending its setting.
On the pedestal are bronze figures
representing four periods of Gen. Lo-
gan's life, one of which shows him
taking the oath of Office as United
States senator, and another portrays
him on the battlefield consulting his
staff about the plans of a battle about
to be fought. Secretary Root has APP
pointed Vice Consul WOOD at Rome an
agent of the government to inspect
the statue If Mr. Wood, who is q
man of artistic taste, pronounces the
work satisfactory it will be accepted
by the government.
He performed similar service in
connection with the pedestal. the
beatty of which has attracted consid-
cradle attention. Mrs. Logan visited
Rome for the purpose of examining
the statue, and she is said to be salts,
fed with it. Unless there is an un.
expected delay the statue will reach
here about December /, ard it will be
placed on its pedestal and unveiled
about Christmas. The ceremonies will
be on an elaborate scale, and the press
ident and other dignitaries will be
present.

EQUIPPED BY AMERICANS,
Electric Underground Railway Put
In Operation in London Under
Contracts Let to FOreixners,

An electric underground railway has
been put in operation in London. near
" all the equipment of which was fur
nished by this country. Consul Hal
stead, at Birmingham. sends the fol-
lowing from the London Times:
"A large part of the plant is of Amer
lean manufacture. English makers,
indeed. are not entirely unrepreSented
they have supplied for instance. an
overhead crane. some feed pumps. and
some small engines for driving fans
but they cut sorry figure beside those
from the other side of the Atlantic,
who have made carriages. the locomO-
tives. cables. the smain generators, the
eXciters and the main engines. II
cannot be said that contracts for these
things were not worth the notice OF
home manufacturers, since the total
cost of the line has been something
like $2.9l9.9G0 mile. and substan-
tial proportion must have been ex-
pended on equipment.
- ''Some other reason must. therefore,
be sought to explain why they have
secured so little of the work. 1t might
be said that their experience of cleo
trio traction work was too limited to
enable them to carry out the contracts
satisfactorily. if they had obtained
them. a more comforting explanation,
however. is to be found in the fact
that when the contracts were being ar
ranged the British mechanic was in
duiging in a strike. and therefore,
his masters were unable to offer the
necessary guaranty that they would
deliver the machinery at the required
dates"
