looked up at Mather Matner lowered
inches above him. There was, more
over, something very sinister in his
eyes.

tily.
,Mather felt a light touch on his arm.
He turned to find Sister Ruth standing
beside him.

Mather climbed the dingy stairs to
the little hall at the corps barracks.
1t was Sunday evening. Outside the
rain was falling dismaliy and the gut
tiers ran rivers of mud. He sat down
quite alone on one of the rear settees.
A handful Of people nearer the plat
form were the only others in the bare,
cherries place.
There were hymns and prayers and
testimony quite as usual, and during it
all Mather sat back in the shadows
feasting his eyes on the outlines of a
pretty face beneath a poke bonnet at
one side of the platform.
Presently during the singing of a
hymn Mather saw her coming down
the aisle toward him, and his heart
stood still. She stopped beside him,
and her face flushed.
"Were you looking for-for saliva
tiOn?' she faltered.
NO." said he quietly, 81 was look
ing for-you."
She looked trifie frightened. He
saw the color suddenly leave her
cheeks.
Please sit down for a minute" he
begged. She hesitated, then reluctant
ly complied The hymn still went on
stridently. Mather looked thoughtfully
at the unshaded gas jets above the
platform for a time

eyes, that's enough he declared.
She turned away from him for a mo-
ment When he saw her face again
her eyes were filed with tears.
''This work is very dear to me,'' she
said.
He was silent.
"But of all men you are the one
should trust"
'And love?' he asked breathlessly.
There was long pause.
''And love-" she said very softly.
They were starting the last verse Of
the hymn but Mather heard nothing
of it. The bare, bleak room had sud-
denly become a glorious paradise. The
yellow gas jets were glittering stars
in a blue velvet sky. Sister Ruth's
hand was in his.

POWERS MAY AID FRANCE
British Diplomats, Hozeerer, Enpect
iStOrn1u Sessions.

London. Jan 12-The published interviews
with German diplomats in which they say that
Germany is going to the conference at Algeciras
with peaceful Intentions have greatly relieved
the anxiety of the business and other sections
of the community. They have, however, MADE
no impression on the diplomats and other OIL
cials of Great Britain who while they still be-
ueye that in the end the majority Of the powers
will uphold the French contentious, expect some
stormy sessions of the conference and anticl-
pate the possibility Of the withdrawal Of Ger
many. In official circles it is considered that
the views of France and Germany with regard
to the policing Of Morocco cannot be recon
ciIed Germany, they believe. will certainly hold
to her agreement to give France control of the
frontier police but will insist on international
control of the interior gendarmerie. which
France maintains should be left to her. France
will contend for this point almost as strongly
as she will for her claim to control the frontier
guards.
Great Britain will support the contention of
France for the control Of the interior gendar-
merle as we'll as all other French contentious 1t
is believed here that Spain and Italy will take
the same stand, as it is not thought that any OF
the powers except Germany will desire to send
troops to Morocco. The powers are prepared,
protection of the interests of foreigners in Mo-
rocco.
No great difficulties are anticipated in regard
to financial and other reforms. as the views of
Germany and France on these points are not
widely divergent.
