The Public service CommIssion's
Answer

The Public service Commission for
the First District has answered frankly
and in full the allegations Of loose busI-
ness methods made against IL by HENRY
h. SEAMAN. its former chief engineer.
The charges grew ont Of IN" negotiations
between the commission and a contrac-
tor. made necessary 10y unav oldable
changes IN the plans Of the Centre street
subway. Mr.. SEAMAN's structures were
specific and supported in the public
mind by the authority of his employ
ment IN the service Of the board.
The answer of the board IL that the
contractor has already agreed TO q
material reduction in the sum demanded
for his work and that negotiations are
still in progress for the adj justment OF all
questions now unsettled, among which
that of extra compensation i included
Tn. settlement reached by the board
and the contractor will be- submitted to
the Board OF Estimate. and until that
body has approved II IN" contention
will not have reached it's final stage.
This is the kind OF answer that Mr.
SEAMAN's charges called for. II puts
the hoard on record in a dignified and
proper manner. II is frank and TO the
point. and IL removes the unpleasant
effect produced by earlier references TO
the condition OF MIR. SFAMAN's health
and other irrelevant matters.

She nodded.

"Why did he come? He is always
around here. I suppose he wants to
give us charity" He sat up suddenly
in bed. "Ellie. If he comes here again
I'll kill him. l feel as If could I feel
lately, as If I could see Sir Andrew in
him. I'm sure he'll grow like him.
Ellie, he ought to be dead. Why
doesn't somebody kill him? If some
body had shot Sir Andrew before he
did all this mischief we shouldn't be
like this now.''
He dropped back suddenly and Ellie
watched him with frightened eyes.
The pallor on her face deepened as she
looked down at him. and suddenly her
heart gave a terrified leap.
Walter had been i'll now for days, at
first with a sort of low fever and
sometimes his mutterings had been on
the verge of delirium. Now the mad
ness of fever was in his eyes, and
surely his words were coming very
thick and fast. She dropped to her
knees beside the bed.
"Oh, Walter-Walter, don't be ILL.,"
she cried. what shall 1 do If you are
i'll? oh, what can I do?"
He seized her wrist. "He Is as bad
as Sir Andrew" he whispered deliri-
ously. "He is of the same blood. Why
shouldn't he pay, Ellie? Why shouldn't
we make him pay for all his uncle did
debt and crime. and Imprisonment and
disgrace? What a bill to have to pay!"
He laughed. what bill to pay!"
Ellie watched him with the horror

perately white. "Ill manage" she
said. "Sir Francis shall not die"
The doctor gave her curious look
and departed.
Afterward he declared that, although
there were nurses in attendance within
a few hours, it was Ellie who saved
both his patients lives.
AS for herself and Sir Francis,
neither forgot that gray and ugly
dawn-he lying half delirious, hunger
ing for her little slight figure. that
came and went through the endless
hours-aching for the touch of her
hand, and restless when she was alb
sent. She, spending the long gray
dawn running up and down from bed
to sitting room-from Sir Francis to
Walter, and back again. And until the
early day she worked hard for their
lives.
1t was weeks afterward that Sir
Francis found himself at last obliged
to CO. Even he could not find the ex-
cuse OF his wounded arm sufficient to
keep him there any longer; and he
faced her at last, looking down into her
eyes, searching for what he hoped to
find.
ELLIE, tell me to come back" he said.
"Oh, how can you want to come
back?" she cried. "Walter might have
killed you.
so he might, but he didn't know
what he was doing, poor chap, and
he's done me a good turn-you can't
cut me again after all this. Ellie, tell
me to come back? Tell Walter that
when he is convalescent-down stairs
again-I want to come and see him.
Will your"
''Yes, I'll tell him."
"But you, Ellie-you? Don't you
want to see me, too? I love you. Let
me take you to your father and ask his
forgiveness for his wrongs? We shall
never be able to prove his innocence;
but, Ellie, believe in him, and I'll try
all my life to make amends. Ellie, you
can't refuse to love me a little bit-I
love you sol"
She looked up, and instantly the last
barrier went down between them and
she did not move from his arms when
he put them round her.

but now a sudden terror seized her
Suppose he had fallen out of the win

She stopped with a cry. The front
door was open and there on the step,
huddled in the shadow, was the figure
of a man.
"Walterl' she cried.
But it was not Walter. The figure
moved slowly, looked up, put out a
hand.
Help me, child, I'm hurt"
Ellie gave sharp cry and fell on her
knees. 1t was Sir Francis!
With frightened eyes she searched
his face. Trembling all over she put
her hand on his shoulder. 1t came
away wet.
I'm stabbed" his voice said faint
ly. "If you could help me in"
He said no more that was coherent,
but as she dragged him on to couch
at last and bent over him he, too, was
no doubt delirious, for his face bright
that brought the color to her cheeks.
MY darling" he said, and tainted.
What happened what she did, how
she dragged through that dreadful
night, she never knew. 1t was the
work of a moment to discover Walter
missing from the room upstairs, and
to find him outside, splashed with
blood and sunk face downward on the
grass, clutching a knife in his hand.
In his delirium he had come down
stairs and found Sir Francis on the
step, opening the door from the out
side, and in a moment he had at
tackled him, stabbing at him wildly in
his fever.
The doctor, who followed on Ellie's
heels, helped to get him into bed and
dressed Sir Francis wounds. And
then at last in the gray, cold dawn
he faced Ellie.
"It may be serious" he said. "Sir
Francis is badly wounded and Walter
is dangerously i'll; and neither can be
moved. You must do your best till 1
can send nurses to relieve you.''
Ellie faced him with her face des-

bright on his cheeks. He was very ILL.,
There was no doubt about that and
she must not delay any longer, but
get doctor at once.
She hastily put on her hat, and af-

Walter wanting help. He might not
even rouse to get the water.
1t was a cold, bleak walk across the
common and she was starved through
and through when she reached the doc
tors at last, left word and turned to
walk back. She walked hurriedly,
breathing hard in the teeth of the wind
that was beginning to rage over the
open sweep of grass.
It seemed a long time before she
came in sight of the cottage again,
and 1t had grown dark. No light
showed in the window and although
she knew that it was not likely, since
she had not lit one before she went,
the sight gave her queer, unaccount-

The Riddle Of High Prices.

Elizabeth,Hewes writes an article for
the April American Magazine in which
she gives the answers she received to
the question as to what was the cause
The answers she got where from var.
ious sources and while many were in
teresting and seemed credible none
them seem Is have completely covered
the question as most of them were
quite Numerically opposed to each
other. The conclusions reached by Miss
Hewes are as follows:
"rhe conclusion that was forced on
me was that for some reason or other
we are really in food shortage. A milk
contractor gave me salient proof of
this. He told me that when milk WI s
five ank six cents quart, they use d
to have great trouble in getting enough
because there was not enough profit in
1t to induce the farmer to raise tie
milk. But when milk rose to nine and
ten cents, the contractor said to MINI
self, Now there will be no more milk
scarcity because now the farmer can
make such profit that he will flood
the market But to his surprise milk
grew even scarccr at nine cents than
it had been at five. Grain was the
tiouble' aid my friend. 1t was so
high that even milk at nine cents a
quart the farmer could not make 8
profit
"And why is grain so high?' | saio
10 myself is it the tariff, is it the
trusts-labor trust or business trust?
Is it increased gold supply, or is it the
rise in land valves? Is it the growth in
population, is it cold storage? Or, stu
again. is it our foolish extravaganza,
or is it too mush city life, too much
manipulation of wealth and not enough
creating of it?'
uThe answer must come, but it is
in the future. In the meantime WITH
drew from my hunt for the causes and
curos for high prices feeling sure OF
two points; that the great need of this
country is seers, economic seers who
work not for to-day's pocket ,out Tor
children of tomorrow, and that what
housekeeper can do to help on the
coming of those men of power VINO
shall be seers is TO teach the men
around her personal honesty aud the
women around her Thrift"
