Mrs. Allen in the darkness. in sudden
distrust of her, her subtle words re-
turning to him, losing half their mean

Mrs. Green took the girls hand in
hers. and her voice was tender as a
mothers when she spoke.
'Lorie," she said softly. She liked
the tender name. 'Lorie. my dear"
Dolores interrupted her.
II must go to my father" she re-
not moving from Mrs. Green's face.
How can I go?"
You cannot 60" Mrs. Green said,
gently. dear; not just now; there is
no way to go until midnight, then
the train will be due here, and Charlie
and Mrs. Allen will take you there"
II must go to my father" she said,
''at once. Tell me how to get there,
please"
There is no way but the train at
midnight" he replied.
But / must go now" she said,
gravely; ''if there is any way. Could

He shook his head slowly. Even
starting now and taking the fastest
horses in the stables we could get
there only half an hour sooner, and
the ride would be too exhausting for IL
to pay. We will wait, Miss johnson,
and take the train and be in time-I
am sure we will be in time. Do not
worry. I would get you there if it
were possible, believe me-Dolores. -
1t was the old voice and the old tone

Then he left the room and Dora

Dolores came down the wide staircase

CHAPTER XXI.
Even In Death.

Even IN DcatHs
As they we're whirled along through
the night and the darkness young
Green's mind was full of the one
thought he must tell Dolores about
the trial in court that afternoon, be-
fore they reached the station. and
away from Mrs. Aliens hearing.
Miss Johnson-Dolores.'' he said,
presently. Her head was leaning
against the back OF the seat and her
eyes were closed. but he was pretty
certain she was not asleep. Dolores,
you remember the laming of my mare
just after first met you, and the ex-
citement and Indignation among us
because of it. and our inability to
catch the fellow, though suspicion
pointed strongly In one direction?"
She reused with sinking at heart
when the young man spoke; she shook
on every other thought and sat wait
ing for what might be coming upon
her.
Dolores" he said, and he tried TO
keep his voice steady, for her sake as
well as his own; I'VE have been fol
lowing w every clew. letting nothing
slip us IN this matter, as doubtless you
have heard. no matter how trivial it
might appear. Just before the deed
was committed Hal and I disturbed
two fellows In the act of stealing the
mare. 1t was sark night. and they
had her out of the stable, her hoofs
bound to deaden the sound, but she
would whinny in her excitement and
terror of the rough men. and that
saved her. We were late home that
evening from the ho&Ise of friend.
and hearing Bess we went at once to
the stables. One OF the fellows we
caught, but the other made good his
escape.
I'VE tried our best to get the fellow
we had to tell where his comrade
was" the young man continued, HIS
voice steady now and natural; but he
was silent as the grave; give him
credit for that. There is an honor
among even these rough. lower men
that one must respect. Then we wait
ed for your father. as you know, de
pending considerably upon his evil
dence, for he knew the condition OF
the mares hoofs when he shod her,
and that there was nothing wrong
then save slight lameness from going
too long without shoes over the rough
road. But even without his evidence
we have succeeded even better than
l had dared hope"
Dolores did not move. She did not
quite understand this that he was tell
ing her. How could they succeed with
out her father, and how could they get
the guilty man
ut was only yesterday" Green went
on. and there was a touch of pleasure
in his voice that Dolores caught with
dull sense OF dead pain. 1T was only
yesterday that we caught the fellow,
but we have him safe and sure enough
now"
Surely they had not-Dolores caught
her breath. and her swift. terrihet
eyes flashed upon his startlingly. His
own eyes darkened as though with
troubled thought.
"The men we sent out in search OF
him found him yesterday. Dolores. not
stones throw from where your
father fell on the opposite mountain.
The first fellow we have sentenced tc
five years for attempted horse steal
ing, and the other has had his trial

sure you Such a dastardly deed de
served the severest penalty the law
allows"

Stop Slaughter of Elephants.

The British government is taking
steps to stop the indiscriminate
slaughter of elephants in its African
possessions. Many thousands are
killed every year for the sake of their
ivory. The governors of the various
colonies have been directed to pro-
hibit by every means in their power
the killing of the huge animals, as 1t
is feared that unless prompt meas

THE MAKING OF BOWLING BALLS
Shaping Modelling Spheres Requires Skill and
Careful Workmanship

The popularity OF bowling has
grown TO such an extent In all parts
OF the United States that the manufac.
ture OF bowling balls, pins and alleys
has become an industry which gives
employment TO thousands OF men.
While the work OF constructing the
alleys does not require any great
amount OF ingenuity. It is in the shap-
Ing and modelling OF bowling balls that
great skill and careful workmanship
are required.
Bowling balls are made almost ex.
oluslvely out Of a wood from the West
Indies and Central American countries
known as llgnum.vitae, one OF the
hardest woods known. There are sew.
eral agents In these countries buying
up this wood all the year round. II Is
shipped in the rough for the factory
In chunks about four to six feet In
length and varying In diameter from
six 20 twenty inches.
The logs are put into specially
constructed cylinder and cut into
blocks. after which the edges are
rounded with a band saw. The rough
balls are then turned over TO expert
mechanics. who with the aid OF turn.

They certainly were big men and
they were--no pun intendod-the

without shaking hands IL they could
find a medium OF communication;
they couldn't shake without one.
What they used TO do was to get a
man OF reasonable thlnness to stand
between them and extend his arms
and the two big men would take one
OF the intermediary hands and the
other the other one. and thus they'd
shake by proxy.
"Of course. the whole town knew OF
this, and everybody humored the big
