CHAPTER Xxx.

OF all the persons who suffered be-
cause Kitten chose to run away from her
husbands house, none endured at first a
more acute sense of agony Connected with
that event than did Margaret Grantley..
The next day all the world knew of 1t.
The scandal-mongers and the gossip-lov-
ers, and all the crowd Of tittle-tattlers,
male and female, buzzed about like bees
out of hive over this one little delight
full morsel of scandal which had come
to disturb, with a pleasing excitement,
the even current of hitherto uneventful
season. 1t was the talk Of the clubs,
and the popular topic Of the park.
1T seems that Brian Desmond neg

well, she must be a thoroughly bad
lot" asserted another; 'and such fool,
too, to go and boltv This one, of course,
was a woman.
And first and foremost among them
all, as matter Of course, was Mrs. Tai
bot, and many were the knowing winks
and mods and shakes of her head, half
uttered sentences, and half-completed
revelations, by which she gave everybody
to understand that she knew of a great
many more horrible and dreadful details
than did any one else, and that there
were things-things connected with the
whole business! All, well, IL they were
but known-well, she could only say that
the hair on the heads of the whole pop
ulation of London would simply stand on
end with it!
"And is it really true, then, that that
poor young fool, Sir Roy Grantley, has
gone off with herr" asked some one.
"Not a doubt of It," answered Ger
trude, almost viciously, for she was an
cry with Roy for admiring Kitten.
why, l met his sister at supper last
night, and you should have seen the
poor woman's face; why, she nearly
tainted when she heard the news"
Three days thus passed away, and still
conjecture and gossip ran rife, and scan
dal refused to be sienced concerning
Mrs. Desmond and her doings. And
then one fine morning, just when Mar
garet was nearly driven .demented by all
the rumors and hints which her dear
friends in every direction took care to
convey to her, up drove Roy himself In
a hanson, to her door In Connaught
Square, with his small portmanteau
above him, and with as unconcerned an
air as though he had been away for a
couple of days hunting or shooting.
"For heavens sake, Roy, what is the
meaning of all this" she cried breath
lessly to him, as he entered her draw
Ing room.
Roy looked surprised, almost more by
her manner than by her words. His sis
ter was very pale, her voice shook with
emotion, and her hands, as he took them
in his, trembled nervously.
"My dear Margaret, do not under
stand you. Is anything the matter!"
Anything the matter? How can you
ask such thing? Do you take me for
a child, Roy? Do you suppose l do not
know, have not heard everything-every

length of time as might be deemed
necessary. This mode of holding the
stream Is more or less defective, in
that the stream of water could not ba
poured upon the exact spot for any
great length Of time on account of the
person holding the hose becoming tired
and unable to direct 1t uniformly. In
order to Obviate these difficulties and
to produce an apparatus not requiring
continuous attention, the device here
illustrated was produced.

Mr.. Raikes has only seen me once,

have thought of all that, and how un-
kind people ere, and what ill-natured
things they would say; but, you see,
there l am safe, and l shall be dead to
them all-and to him." she added below
her breath.
Brian did not come home that after
noon until nearly dinner time. A long
day of almost complete isolation, devot-
ed to earnest reflection, had had good
effect upon him.
He ran upstairs lightly, and opened
the drawing room door. Kitten was not
there. Then he recollected that it was
late, and that she was, no doubt, in her
own room, dressing for dinner. He went
to her bedroom, but the door was wide
open and the room empty.
He slammed to his door and went to
his dressing table. Upon his pincushion
lay an envelope addressed to himself in
his wife's handwriting. With a strange
sickening apprehension, he tore it open
and read:
My dear husband, we have made a
terrible mistake, and we can never be
happy together. l am going away SC
that you may be free, and may be often
with her who has your heart. Do moi
look for me, for you will never find me
you will be far happier without me, but
l shall always love you and think Of
you. I could not fill your life or your
heart, dearest love, and to do less thar

complaint, no anguish of despair. Hi:

ContInuous Wire Fencing.

The Iron Age is authority for the
statement that wire fencing is now
produced in continuous rolls by auto
matte electric welders. A number Of
galvanized wires are fed from reels
arranged vertically and parallel to
each other, while from other reels ar
ranged transversely vertical lengths Of
wire are placed across the horizontal
wires first mentioned.
Where these wires intersect they
are electrically welded, when another
section moves forward automatically,
and the process repeated.

Roof Painting Posts.

The roof wears out, unless kept

from clear, straight-grain wood and
kept always painted, they will last a
very long time. One of the advan-
tages of painting roofs is to keep wa
ter from the nails, where rusting soon
rots the wood where they are driven.

He Falls Into Sheriff's Trap-Gives
$25 Bond For Appearance of Chauf-

With Spectators.

New York, Aug. Ex-senator Chaun-
cey M. Depew is appearing in public
again. He is to be seen almost any
day on Westchester roads motoring or
driving, and he is becoming a familiar
figure to his fellow citizens. West
chester is his native county. He went
there last December after his break
down. Not until lately has he yentured
out.
He goes to Muldoon's An White
Plains every day to take physical ex-
ercise. The redoubtahle BNly has put
many man on his feet with a course
of boxing gloves, rowing machines and
punching bags. He taught President
Roosevelt many strenuous tricks.
The senator is living in the old Patton
place, between Dobbs Ferry and Ir-
vington. Mrs. Depew is not with him,
though she sees him almost every day
She is stopping at Briancliff Manor at
Scarboro, on the Harlem
Held Up For Speeding.
Since Senator Depew has been well
enough to take course of light phys
ical exercise at Muldoon's in White
Plains he has been making the trip
back and forth in his automobile 1t
has been his custom to stop at the
Manor House in Scarboro for his wife
to accompany him on these trips. He
was held up by constables for speeding
on Wednesday, Mrs. Depew and wo-
man companion, Dr. Bond and his
chauffeur were with him. Sheriff Sam
uel Townsend of Westchester county
had laid a trap along a fine stretch of
road in Hartsdale for speeding motor
lists, and the senator was among the
first to fall into it,
When the senator's machine whizZed
by at rate close to thirty miles an
hour the sheriff raised his red flag and
the machine came to a STOP Mr.. De
pew was all smiles. He said he could
not dispute the word of the sheriff,
seeing the latter held stop watch.
You may proceed on payment of $25
bond" said the sheriff. Mrs. Depew
handed the money to the chauffeur,
who in turn handed it to the sheriff
and signed bond agreeing to appear
before Justice of Peace Joseph L. Clio
yer at Ardsley to answer the charge of
overspeeding. The senator chatted with
those who gathered about his machine
while this formality was gone through.

New Haven Road Disposes of All Its
Street Car PROPERTY

Street Car Property.
Boston, Aug. 17.-Details of the trans
fer by the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company of street
car systems valued at many millions
of dollars leaked out in this city, and,
although official confirmation in rail
road circles is lacking, it was learned
that the railroad company had taken
steps to divest itself of practically all
of its street car property in southern
New England The transfer, which
follows closely on the announced in
tention of the Massachusetts authori-
ties to retain in this state control of
Massachusetts street railway corpora

According to information obtained

Connecticut, with connecting lines to
Rhode Island and New York
