CHAPTER XVI.
n THE NICK OF TINE.

A RESCUE IN THE NICK OF TINE.
YATER In that never to be forgotten
day Bud Haines ventured back
to his desk In the committee
- room, after first ascertaining
that Senator Langdon would not re-
turn. Some of the senator's papers
must be Strengthened out. and he want
ed personal documents Of his own.
The secretary regretfully, sorrowful-
T. performed these final duties and
found himself stopping at various in
tervals to try to explain to himself how
he had been deceived in both the Lang
dons. father and daughter. He had to
give up both problems. To him nell
ther was explainable. 'I've known
enough senator's to know that I'd never
meet an honest one," he muttered.
"But as to women-well, there's too
much carefully selected wisdom in
their innocence to suit me-"
This cynic. new born from the shell
of the chronic idealist that was, sud
denly was disturbed in his nominations
by sound at the door. Looking up,
he saw Hope Georgia Langdon stand
Ing shyly, embarrassed, in the main
entrance.
'Mr. Haines," she said timidly.
Bud jumped to his feet.
"Yes, Miss Hope Georgia"
AS the senator's younger daughter
came toward him he noticed that she
was excited over something, and for a
newly made cynic he took altogether
90 much notice of her youthful beauty,
her fresh, rosy complexion and her
dancing, sparkling eyes. The thought
occurred to him, ''What woman she
will make-if she doesn't initiate her
sister,"
81 couldn't let you go. Mr.. Haines,
without telling you goodby and letting

musicale, as you know, but that won't
matter. No matter who says no, l
promise you that you shall see father.
There shall be an explanation"
"Thank you, Miss Hope. You don't
realize all you've done for me-" said
Bud seriously. "It's wonderful
thing to find a girl who believes in q
man. You've taught me a lot, Miss
Hope. Thank you"
"Goodby, Mr.. Haines. Come to-
night" she said as she turned and hur-
ried away.
Bud Haines stood looking after her
thoughtfully.
What Il stunning girl she is! I've
seemed to overlook her, with the rush
Of events-and Carolina" he murmur-
ed softly. I'VE never were such very
great friends, yet she believes in me-
What beauty she is!'
A messenger boy broke in ON his
musings with a letter for Senator
Langdon marked Important"
"Guess I'm secretary enough yet to
answer this" he thought, tearing it
open.
Great heavensw he exclaimed as he
read it. Here's the chance to get to
the bottom Of this AltacOola PROPOSE
ton. It's from Peabody"
Haines read the following:
Dear Senator Langdon-I am going to
Philadelphia tonight. Urgent cali from q
company for which ] am counsel, so l
probably won't be able to confer with you
regarding the committees choice for the
naval base. But know you are for Alta
coola and trust to you to do all you can
for that site. l Of course consider the
matter definitely settled.
"This situation will enable Langdon
to bluff Peabody and draw out of him
all the inside of the Altacoola business
Ought to anyway. Guess some Gulf
City talk will smoke him out
Haines rushed out and across the
hall, to reappear literally hauling In a
stenographer by the scruff Of the neck.
"Here, you, take this dictation-record
time" he cried:
Senator Horatio Peabody, Louis Napoleon
Hotel
You are going to Philadelphia tonight, !
know, leaving the report on the naval
base to me. l have just come on various
aspects of the situation which make me
incline very favorably toward Gulf CITY:
l am looking into the matter and. OF
course, shall act according to my best
Judgment. That is what you Will want
me TO do. / know. Sincerely yours,
WILLIAM H. LANGDON.
81 don't think Senator Peabody Will
60 to Philadelphia tonight" laughed
