McHenry agreed.

claimed. and be peered closely once
more at the metal slab.

he said as he left. They'd give the
shirts of their backs to beat us on a
story like this or to keep us from
doing it to them"
AS McHenry went out of the door
into the composing room Sylvester
Nolan dashed into Brands room from
the hall through the other door: The
lad was plainly excited, his face show
ing an amount of animation that, for
him, was a decided novelty. His eyes
flashed and his breath came in short
gasps, indicating that he had been
hurrying.
"Where's my father, MIR. Brand:
Where is he?" he gasped:
Brand suspected something Of the
Nolan sons Grand,
I'm afraid you'll have to find him, y
was the only information he chose to
lmpart.
Young Nolan drew close to the desk
at which the managing editor was
working.
"Judge Bartelmy wants him." he ex
claimed. 1.-THE judge. the Judge! Don't

Powell picked up the pages Of his
story which Brand had discarded and
walked dejectedly away. !
"Mac,' Brand ordered here's a
dance hall suicide. Put it with local
brevities. will you?'' IT,: r.
Had Brand ut this moment been able
to see through the wall that separated
the composing room from the hall he
would have witnessed a sight that
would have deprived him Of some of
the self possession that marked his
present :demeanor. A figure clad in an
elaborate evening gown crept softly
up the stair way: stood irresolutely at
the landing and then turned into, the
managing EDITORS Office. Judith Bar
telmy probably never looked more
beautiful in her life than she did that
night. "A flush Of excitement enhanced
the soft allurement of her exquisite
features, and the low cut neck of her
sleeveless gown completed picture
OF feminine ,loveliness that, ~innocently
enough on her part. was admirably
adapted to the purpose Judge Bartdmy
had in his unprincipled mind when he
sent her to the Advance Office. "You
are my only hope" he had told her
after Dupuy had at first failed to To-
cate Nolan. :."You must 60 and plead

she had willingly consented to under
take the mission. Unpleasant though
she knew it would be, she believed It

dire need the father whom she loved,
the father whom she did not know. :.
As she entered the Office and paused
in conjecture as to just how she would
proceed she heard footsteps hurriedsy
ascending the stairs, and, withdrawing
into shadow in corner, she saw
Michael Nolan and Mrs. Nolan cross
the hall and disappear into the COM
posing room.

has since said so from the depths Of

A number of the residents in that section of the town where Sport Hill is situated, do not take at all kindly to the opposition manifested by one gentleman, which resulted in prevent ing the proposed hill climb on Decora- tion Day.

Maynard of the Norfolk. Va. district.
Il haven't got so very much"-he had

what Brownlow would have taken had
he been in my place"
"But Brownlow had only drops or
water where you have barrels" was
the reply of one man. "Brownlow
works steadily, and surely, taking an
average of $4,000 day for his district
all the time he is in congress. Brown
low has every cemetery In east Ten
nessee in charge. and its keeping paid
by the government"
do you remember" asked another
member "the day he worked Andrew
Johnson's grave off on us? He cried
bit and laughed little. but we
passed his bill, and the only presi-
dents grave which is in the care and
keeping of the United States is that
of Andrew Johnson. The graves of
Washington, Jefferson, Jackson. Lin
coin and Grant are not under the care
of the United States. Johnson would
not have been so honored If Brown

House stables came up. Roosevelt
was anxious about it and had let the

DOLLIVER A FAMILY MAN
Senior Iowa Senator Is a Person Of
Strong Domestic leaninss-

Senator Dolliver of Iowa is a person
with strong domestic leanings. He
participated in a little incident in the
senate elevator the other afternoon
that would have gladdened Rooseyelt's
heart The elevator was pretty well
crowded when the senator came
hustling down the corridor, "shooing"
four children ahead of him. They
must have started at about the age
of four and stopped at the age of
nine
"All yours?" asked another senator.
"You bet!" said Dolliver. This one
here"-he indicated a pretty child
the littlest-"is the one that played
havoc with your walnut sweets"
well, / declare" said Senator No,
2, and he leaned over and put ques-
ton to her in baby talk.
She only hung her head till the ele-
vator reached the senate floor. Then
Dolliver "shooed" her and the others
out into that corridor
