"We took a surface car down TO

Young Plans Trip to Europe.
while alone with Mr.. Young in the
| saloon and in the cab, he said: Now,
| Nan, will tell you what it was l had
| to say to you this afternoon. | must
go away; have been trying to plan

Il said / supposed I would. | did

and finally returned to the saloon"
Young had arranged to meet Luce
here ard go home with him, so that
his wife would not suspect that he had
met Nan.
Young Drinks Heavily.
while We sat there. I guess Mr..
Young had Is or 20 drinks of straight
whisky. / drank very little. He
talked about the way he had been
spending money, and when he had the
money out of his pocket to pay for
some of the drinks he counted off five
$40 bills and he said: Here, put that
with the rest of your money; put all
that money somewhere so that Luce
will Know nothing about IT, Don't for
goodness sake make any break and
say you are coming over there. Be-
cause If Mrs. Young ever saw you
again there would be trouble
"He would not let me put the money
in my purse for fear that Luce would
see It. He made me take all my money
and put it in my stocking. Then told
him was hungry, and he suggested
going over to Luce's table and having
something to eat. He was beginning
to show the effects of his drinking
So the three of us had something to
cat and Mr.. Young and drank some
more--half-and half it was. There was
no quarrelng there, however-the only
thing he showed any anger about was
when he thought did not want TO 60
over to Europe very much.

was very much in liquor. Mr.. Luce
went to get a cab. Mr.. Young said:
