daughter of the late Senator Arthur P.
German, OF Maryland.
The court martial and the Navy De-

sentiment in the harsh verdict of one
year in the naval prison for the bride
groom. 1t was a case in which if it be
true that "all the world loves a lover
the department should have been more
enient.
To begin2 with Hartlove is even q
name surcharged with deep devotion
and suggestive overmastering of pas

visaged warrior was he; no man of con-
hict and of strife. His was not the
mailed hand of war, but the strayine
fingers for the lutte. Hartlove, the

in the ecstasy of song, and whose mind
His lawyers frankly stated that when
he deserted he twas in a state of mind
that might be called delirium of antici-
patton of his honeymoon.
Certainly he was, and the Navy De-

sufficient plea. He had heard the call
of his soul-mate above the tumult of his
own irrepressible music, as dove calls
to dove when the after glow fingers in
the West and the night winds whisper
among the pines.
What are arbitrary rules and regula-

affection. The Navy Department is too

was standing before the mirror ar
ranging her hair, and in some way the
lamp was overturned and fell to the
floor, spilling the oil, which became
ignited, and the flames running under

culated to unnerve any man. to say
nothing of the momentary expectation
of an explesion-the lamp being glass
one, with only the bottom broken off,
it still burning, and the spilled oil
burning rapidly. Fortunately, bug

several bed quilts, Mr.. Howell sue

not until he had almost despaired, and
had told Mrs. Howell to get the chill
