not as yet as much as glanced, now caused the girl to turn one swift contemptuous look their way, and in that momentary flash her eyes en' countered those of the man she had thus accused. Field stood like one turned suddenly to stone. gazing at her with wild, incredulous eyes. One instant she seemed to sway, as though the sight had staggered her, but the rally was as instantaneous. Before the general could interpose . word, she plunged on again:
 ''He, at least, had heart and con science. He knew. how wrongfully Moreau had. been accused-that money was actually needed to estab- lish his claim. It would all have been repaid if your soldiers had not forced this wicked war, and" and now in her vehemence her eyes were flashing. her hand uplifted, when. all on . sudden, the portiere was raised the second time, and there at the door way stood the former inspector general, "Black Bill" At sight of him the mad flow of words met sud den stop. Down, slowly down, came the clinched, uplifted hand. Her eyes, glaring as were Fields a mo- ment agone, were fixed in awful fascination on the grizzled face. Then actually she recoiled as the veteran officer stepped quietly for ward into the room.
 And what?" said he, with placid interest. T haven't hear you rave in many a moon, Nanette. You are your mother over again-without your mothers excuse for fury"
 But a wondrous silence had fallen on the group. The girl had turned rigid. For an instant not . move was made, and, in the hush of all but throbbing hearts, the sound of the trumpets pealing forth the last notes of tattoo came softly through the outer night.

 "These and the inspector general. He will be here in moment. But, indeed, Mrs. Hay, it is all known, practically" said the general. with sympathy and sorrow in his tone.
 Not all-not all, general! Even T don't know all l- She herself has said so. Hush. She's coming"
 She was there! They had listened for swish of skirts or fall of slender feet upon the stairway, but there had not been a sound. They saw the reason as she halted at the entrance, lifting with one little hand the costly Navajo blanket that hung as a DOT tiere. In harmony with the glossy folds of richly dyed wool, she was habited in Indian garb from head to foot. In two black. lustrous braids, twisted with feather and quill and ribbon, her wealth of hair hung over her shoulders down the front of her slender form. A robe of dark blue stuff, rich with broidery ot colored bead and bright hued plumage, hung. close clinging. and her feet were shod in soft moccasins, also deftly worked with bead and quill. But it was her face that chained the gaze of all, and that drew from the pallid lips of Lieut.. Field gasp of mingled eonsternation and, amaze. Without a vestige of color: with black circles under her glittering eyes; with lines of suffer ing around the rigid mouth and with that strange pinched look about the nostrils that tells of anguish. bodily and mental, Nanette stood at the doorway. looking straight at the chief.

 And there, in the hallway, throwing off his heavy overcoat and 'arctics," there, with that ever faithful aide in attendance, was the chief they loved; dropped in, all unsuspecting, just to say goodbye. T knocked twice." began Hogan. but Ray brushed him aside, for, catching sight of the cap tain's face, the general was already at the door. Another moment and he had discovered Field. and with both hands extended, all kindliness and sympathy, he stepped at once across the room to greet him.
 q was SO very sorry to hear the news" said he. 'T knew your father well in the old days. How's your wound? What brought you back so soon?-

 "Moreau, sir! Broke guard and stabbed Kennedy. The second shot dropped him. He wants Pawn Eyes, his sister"

before the Missouri Society al Pythian

which were Congressman Burton, Rod

Mr.. BarthoIdt predicted the ultimate
success of the movement for universal
peace and explained the workings OF

cause of world peace. Mr. Bartholdt
placed the doubling Thomases" who do
not believe in il. and those persons who
look upon the soldier as an ideal To be
lived up 10 and to be worshiped. He
declared that every day in peace there
IS more real heroism displayed than in
time of war. for he argued that it is
nobler 10 restrain ones wild wrath than
TO strike an enemy IN anger
Another hindrance," he said. is our
system of education, which holds up to
the pupils the soldier as great ideal
The school should be used to curb, not

is no place for military drills. Let the

school everything that smacks of mil

Strong Peace Sentiment.
Mr.. Bartholdt declared that there is
everywhere a strong sentiment growing
up for universal peace and said it would
be accomplished by arbitration treaties

by an international congress to declare
what international law is.

TRANSFERS ORDERED TO
DRIVE SINGLE FILE

Transfers are not allowed to drive
their wagons three and four abreast and
thus block the usual traffic of the
streets, as they are fond Of doing. The
police have been asked to break up this
practice and to make arrests if the
teamsters do not observe the law of the
road.
In the morning when going to work
and in the evening when returning, the
teamsters become very sociable and, in
order to enjoy their chats, they line up
their teams abreast, and occupy the
whole driveway. This is particularly
true on Park, Portland, and Third ave
nues s, from which many complaints
have been received by the mayor.
