SYNOPSIS.

Three girls Elizabeth, Gabrielle and
Elise-started for Canada to spend the
summer there. On board teamer they
were frightened by an apparently dement,
ed stranger, who, finding a bag belonging
to one Of them, took enjoyment in scru-
tinizing a photo of the trio. Elise shared
her stateroom with q Mrs, Graham, also
bound for Canada. The young women on
a sightseeing tour met Mrs. Graham.
anxiously awaiting her husband, who had
d mania for sailing. They were intro
duced to Lord Wilfrid and Lady Edith.
4 cottage by the ocean was rented BY
the trio for the summer. Elizabeth
learned that q friend of her fathers was
to call. Two men called, one Of them
being the queer-acting stranger on the
steamer. The girls were mot at home,
of the men was Elizabeth's fathers
friend. The men proved to be John G..
Blake and Gordon Bennett. The party
wasNtold of the search for smugglers IN
the vicinity Of the cottage. Elise visited
Mrs. Graham to find that her life was
not the happiest. She learned that the
Grahams n Lady Edith were acquaint-
ed. A wisp of yellow hair from Mr.. era
hams pocket fell into the hands Of Elise.
Mrs. Graham's hair was black. During
a storm the young women heard a crash
in the basement of the cottage and a mo-
ment later Mary Anne, their woman serv-
ant, entered, her arm bleeding. 10 as
sure them there was no danger, Mary
Anne descended to the basement alone
and quieted their fears. Lady Edith told
the girls Of a robbery Of jewels at the
hotel. Fearing for the safety of her own
gems, she left them in a safe at the cot
tage. Mr.. Gordon Bennett was properly
introduced. explained his queer actions,
returned the lost bag and told Of mysteri-
Gus doing Of a year before connected
with the cottage. Exploring the cellar,
one OF the girls found a sphinx cuff-but-
ton, the exact counterpart of which both
Gordon Bennett and Lady Edith were
found to POSSESS. also.

DEMOCRATS TO
BLOCK HADLEY
ALL APPOINTMENTS WILL BE
HELD UP, ACCORDING TO
CAUCUS DECISION.
SKINNER AFFAIR IS THE CAUSE
After Amending Eighteen Sections of
the Walmsley Fish and Game
Law the House Committee of
the Whole Give Up.

Jefferson City.-In a two-hour
aucu Thursday afternoon the
Democratic senators agreed to with
hold confirmation of Gov. Hadley's ap-
pointments. The caucus was a stormy
one, a number of the senator's want
ing confirmation to be agreed to.
The conference was called to
satisfy several Democrats, who be-
lieve the appointments should be act
ed on. The cause of the holdup is
the governors refusal to name a sue
cessor to Election Commission Skin
ner of st. Louis, according to the
wishes of the Democrats.
Only n appointment of conse-
quence by the present administration
has been confirmed. That one was
Henry Kortjohn, Jr., who was ap-
pointed only after Attorney General
Major rendered an opinion to the eff
feet that Carlisle was not entitled to
the seat. Major hardly had made
known his opinion before the governor
named a Republican for the place.

olution submitting to the people of
the state a constitutional amendment

New White Plague Bill.

Jefferson City,-Another step to-
wards the prevention of tuber-
culosis was taken with the introduc-
ton of a bill in the house of repre-
sentatives by DR.. Forth of Cole
ty for a commission of seven to in
vestigate the causes and approved
methods of prevention and cure. The
appointments are to be made by the

Dollar Tax Bill Fails.

Jefferson City.-The senate commit
tee on private corporations, at a meet
ing held Wednesday night, voted to
report the Eads bill to tax corpora
lions $40 on the $1,000 capitalization
adversely. Gov. Hadley recommends
the taxing of corporations, but favors
a tax of about rs cents on the $1,000
capitalization. The Muir bill in the
house will be amended to meet his
approval.
Wednesday nigh, Senator Gardner
said that he would probably draw a
new bill to meet the governors sug-
gestions and introduce it. 1t is esti-
mated that a tax of rs cents would
yield the state about 100000 annaul-
ly.

Puts Lid on divorce Grounds.

Jefferson City.-The divorce mill
will grind slowly in Missouri if the
bin introduced by Representative
johnson. of Vernon county, in the
house becomes a law. 1t limits the
grounds upon which an absolute d.
yorce may be obtained to infidelity.
Countless other reasons now adj
vanced for the divorce will, under the
Johnson bill, entitle mismated couples
to only legal separations. The pro-
posed law is patterned in many re-
spects after the New York law, said to
be the most drastic divorce statute in
the country.
Another bank guaranty bill bobbed
up in the house. 1t is fostered
jointly by Representatives Carter and
Miller. Similar bills previously offered
have expired in the committee rooms.

So when Lord Wilfrid sailed to our

and the sea was not too rough, SO we
thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and
made a tour among the neighboring

Jefferson Cityy-There is no
prospect for the passage of a bill
introduced Thursday by Senator Kin
ney for appropriating $4,000 for a
state tuberculosis commission.
The rule is to pass no bills making
appropriation for purposes rof this
kind. The inclusion of the appropria-
ton is equivalent to killing the COM

Jaeger Delivers Address
Before University
Club |

Prof. T. A. Jaggar, Jr., Of the
Massachusetts Institute OF Technol-
ogy gave an illustrated lecture on
volcanoes last night at the Univer-
sity Club, where a large number of
scientific men assembled to hear him
speak.
Speaking from his personal obser-
walton of volcanoes and the move
ments of the earth, Prof. Jaggar said
that Hawaii presented many advan.
tages for the study of terrestrial phe-
nomena on account of It's locality in
the middle of a great ocean.
He said that the japanese have
taken leading part in this research
and that their empire has establish
ed seismic observatories. He then
proceeded to tell of his own experi-
ences in connection with the various
volcanic eruptions which have taken
place recently.
Rev. Charles F. Dole of Boston
also spoke. Justice s. NJ. Ballou in
