sages in an effort to apprehend Por-
ter Charlton of Washington, the youth
full husband of Mrs. Mary Scott Castle
Charlton, Whose fnuti1ated body was
taken from trunk in Lake Como.
The authorities maintain there may
have been a connection between the
murder Of Mrs. Charlton and. Miss
Stella Reid of New York, whose body
was found on the beach at Naples on
April "a.
The proprietor Of the Suisse hotel
at Como, in which the. rCharltons
stopped for a few days before taking
up their residence in the cottage near
Moltrasio, was examined by the police
regarding Charlton's alleged mis-
treatment of his wife. He admitted
that the stories of cruelty were true
and repeated his statement that the
couple quarrelled so violently and that
Charlton treated his wife so badly
that he was forced to expel them from
the hotel Z
The police believe that Charlton,
who was at least twelve years younger
than his wife, soon tired. of her after
lheir marriage three months ago, in
formation having been received from
America that he married her as the
result Of a sudden infatuatiOn.

the Bemidji Sentinel, who would make

further the interests of the machine
politicians and slate makers through

will not admit of an answer to the

CHAPTER X.
An Over-SuccessTul Embassy.


Virginia, left alone, was rather
glad of 1t. Her desertion of the
Shaynes was a crisis in her life.
She had acted impulsively in a
matter of great moment and need
ed time for thought. She had taken
flight to Carsons Landing and to
shelter in the shade of the sole re-
naming branch of her family tree,
full of confidence that she would
find there a silver-haired uncle and
a delicate old lavender aunt, redo.
lent of the old regime and ready to
receive her, tenderly loyal to the
Carson blood.
Instead of silver hair, Theodore,
the audaciously false uncle, had red
lips and the little, silky, kids mus
tache," and there was no aunt. The
grandniece of old General Carson,
related to Theodore Carson, by no
chain of descent, save the dubious
one of the original third Carson
brother of hundreds of years ago
and the ownership of this planta-
ton, was weakly allowed to assume
kinship from the place and name,
and never thought of sitting down
with Theodore and tracing the
thing out. Her flight, her astonish-
ment at finding her rescuer, the
supposed smuggler, as the head of
her family. her guardian and pro-
tector, his disturbing influence
over her mental faculties, their un-
interrupted series of excursions by
field and flood, the feeling of un-
certainty-not to say apprehension
which their relations had begun
to produce in her, all these made
her glad of day or so to herself.
She wanted the current cut off so
that she might become demagnet-
lied.
OF course, she said, it was absurd
of him to run away just after he
had held her a little tighter than
was necessary in picking her up
that was crude, and made the stu
alton worse. She wondered just
what the relationship was, anyhow
Chloe said that Cahsones were Cab
sOnes, and she never bothered
about different kinds. He couldn't
be a real uncle. Virginia felt sure
of that. He might be son of Gen
eral Carson by a second wife. He
was the head of the family, any
how; she must be satisfied with
that If he would only quit looking
Sapphic odes and prowling about of
nights-and oh, heavens. if he
