from the table and nailed Ormsby with look that would have made young CT man betray himself.
 Do you mean to tell me that there is no engagement between you and Miss Brentwood?"
 "Just that" Ormsby put all the nonchalance he could muster into the laconic reply, but he was anticipating the sequent demand which came like shot out of gun.
 And there never has been?"
 Ormsby grinned. ".
 When you are digging we'll and have found your stream of water, it's folly to go deeper, David Cant you let good enough alone?" ...
 Kent turned it over in his mind, drowning thoughtfully into his coffee cup. When he spoke it was out of the mid-heart of manliness.
 q wish you would tell me one thing, Ormsby. Am I responsible for-for the present state of affairs?"
 Ormsby stretched the truth little; partly for Elinor's sake; more, per- haps, for Rents.
 You have done nothing that an honorable rival-and incidentally Q good friend of mine-might not do. Therefore you are not responsible"
 That is putting 1t very diplomatic ally" Kent unused. q am afraid it does not exonerate me wholly"
 "Yes, it does. But it doesn't put me out of the running, you understand. I'm 'forninst' you yet; rather more stubbornly than before, I fancy"
 Kent nodded.
 That, of course; I should think less of you if you were not. And you shall have as fair show as you are giving me-which is saying lot. Shall we go and smoke?"

CHAPTER XXI.
A BORROWED CONSCIENCE.

A BORROWED CONSCIENCE.
 The conversation on the Brentwood porch was chiefly of Breezeland inn as health and pleasure resort, until an outbound electric car stopped at the corner below and Loring came up to make quartet of the trio behind the vine-covered trellis.
 Later, the ex-manager confessed to desire for music-Penelope's music and the twain went into the sitting room and the piano, leaving Elinor and Kent to make the best of each other as the spirit moved them.
 It was Elinors chance for free speech with Kent-the opportunity she had craved. But now it was come, the simplicity of the thing to be said had departed and an embarrassing complexity had taken its place.
 What is the matter with us, this evening?" he queried. we have been sitting here talking the vaguest trivial ities ever since Penelope and Loring side-tracked us. I haven't been doing anything am ashamed of; have you?"
 .''Yes," she confessed, looking away from him.
 What is it?"
 'I asked a certain good friend of mine to come to see me when there is good reason to believe he didn't want to come"
 What makes you think he didn't want to come?" ...
 ''Why-I don't know; did he?" She had turned upon him swiftly with an outflash of the playful daring which had been one of his major fetterings in time past-the ecstatic charm that goes with quick repartee and instant and sympathetic apprehension.
 "You have never yet asked anything of him that he wasn't glad enough to give" he rejoined. keeping up the third person figurative.
 "Is that saying very much-or very little?"
 ''Very little, indeed. But 1t is only your askings that have been lacking not his good will"
 That was said like the David Kent I used to know. Are you really quite the same?"
 "I hope not" he protested gravely. People used to say that I matured late, and year by year as I look back can see that 1t was true saying. have done some desperately boyish things since I was a man grown; things that make me jingle when recall them"

VICTORY AND DEFEAT
Chicago Not to Operate Street
 Railway Lines.
BU1VOTESS7S,Oo0 10000 OBUYPLAST
Mayor Dunne Claims Big Battle Gained For Municipal Ownership, but h Disappointed That It
 Was Not . Complete Rout.

CHICAGO, April 4.-Municipal own ership of street railways was indorsed by Chicago's citizens at the polls by 1000 majority, but the proposition for municipal operation, which required . three-fifths vote, was beaten
 It was one of the hottest elections in the history of the city. Money was said to have been used plentifully both by the traction interests for the defeat of the municipal ownership and opera tion propositions and by the liquor in- terests against the high license alder men.
 Three propositions were submitted to the voters, the first of which was:
 Shall the city of Chicago proceed to operate street railways?' This propo- sition required 60 per cent of the to- tai vote cast in order to become effec- tive. The total vote was approximate ly 233,000. Of this number the propo- sition to proceed to the immediate op- eration of the street railways secured but 123,OOO votes, about 1800O short of the necessary three fifths.
 The second proposition involved the approval of an ordinance previously passed by the city council providing for the issue of street railway certif- cates in amount not to exceed $75,OOO,- 900 for the purchase, ownership and maintenance of the street railways. This was carried by about $500 votes. The third question. which was simply on the question of public policy and has no legal effect whatever, is, Shall the city council proceed without delay to secure the municipal ownership and operation of the street railways under the Mueller law instead of granting franchises to private companies7'
 This proposition was carried by about 5000 votes.
 Mayor Dunne construed the passage of the $75,O00,00O certificates and pub lie policy propositions as victory for ownership, but expressed his disappointment over the defeat of the proposition for municipal operation. He said:
 ''I admit that I am disappointed be- cause the victory is not complete. The people will vote for operation with big majority at the proper time."
