came part OF the distant color scheme.
The blue figure faded and blended into
the general tone and could no longer
be distinguished. She was gone. but
she had tossed him a kiss from lips
that he should always see.
Uppermost In his bewildered mind
was the question. Why is she not in
the passenger list? Acting on n sud
den impulse. he again sought out the
clerk In charge and made a most thor
ough inspection. There was no Gug-
genslocker among the names. AS last
resort he asked:
"They could not have sailed under
an assumed name. could they?"
Il can't say as to that Where are
they going"
"Graustark."
But the young man shook bis head
slowly, Lorry's sinking in unconscious
accord.
"Are you sure that you saw the
young lady on boardr'
well. ratherr exclaimed Lorry en-
photicaIly.
Il was going 70 say there are lot
OF italian and German singers on the
ship, and YOU might have been mistak-
en-. But since you are so positive IL
seems very strange that your friends
are not on the list"
SO Lorry went away discouraged and
with 4 vague fear that she might have
been prlma donna whose real name
was Guggensloclcr. but whose stage
name was something more euphouious.
lie instantly put away the thought
and the fear. She was certainly not an
opera lnger-impossble! He drove
back to his hotel and mnde prcpara-

Glaucing casually over the register he
came 20 the name that had been haunt

the names. "Caspar Guggenslocker and
four. Graustark." Without hesitation
he began TO question the clerk.
"They sailed on the Kaiser Wilhelm

Through the long hot summer he
worked and worried and wondered
He must know all about her. But
how?
The early months OF autumn found

tarding the progress of our city,
TO a point bordering criminal
neglect.
8. The city council has
employed members of its own
body on the street work Of the
city, which is not only an unjust
discrimination again st the many
good workmen of the city who de-
sire employment and are anxious
TO work for wages, but we con-
demn such acts further, as being
strictly illegal, and contrary to
law, as provided in Art. 2 Chap.
%, S-Law 1901.
8. For not passing the sal
ary reduction ordinance so as to
commence at the beginning of
their term Of office.
10. We ask all persons regard
less of political affiliations, who
have the welfare of the city at
heart, to assist us in electing
good men, who are free from
factional strife, that we may
secure these much needed pub
lie improvements, that our la
boring men may be given en-
ployment and the thousands of
dollars lying in the sub-treasury
at st. Louis may be judiciously
spent among our people.
