BUCMNG WALL ST. BUT HOLDING
A PUNCH-RR00F MEAL TICKET

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Two
years ago Jesse l.. Livermore went
up against the Wall, street game.
He left with the title of Cotton
King Livermore," and $3,000,000.
Then, with HIS own cotton, he
plugged his ears against the siren
voice Of "the street" and sought a
lawyer, whom he paid to devise a
scheme whereby he would be as
sured of an annuity of $4,000 no
matter what happened.
The lawyer was so successful at
the Job that boy plunger Liver
more" can't get the money until
the right time comes around every
year. Nor can he borrow against
1t, or pledge it. He locked it up in
an Insurance company where Wall
street can never get at 1t. He still
has the $4,000 a year.
Il don't expect I will ever need
It," he said at the time, but I
want to make sure that If lose
every other dollar I've got, I will
still have the means on which to
live"
Reports from coast resorts indi-
cate that Mr.. and Mrs. Livermore
are getting along nicely on that
$4,000 per.
A few years ago Livermore was
a marker on Boston blackboard,
getting Sc week. His employers
divorced him from the job because
they discovered he was playing the
bucket shops. Instead of hunting
another job, he began to speculate
in earnest. He came to New York
with his wife, to whom he il de-
voted, and before Wall street knew
of his existence, he had money
scattered through half a dozen
banks. That was in 1905 when he
was 81 years old. The market was
beginning to wabble then and sink
beneath the weight Of high money
and boosted prices. He climbed
right on top Of the market and be-
gan to sell right and left. Every

there was some subtle difference in
his bearing, in the carriage of his
small head, which left no doubt
that the ceremony Of the morning

Allard grasped the back OF a

What is the matter?" questioned
Vasili. why are you so sober; why
are you so still? Oh, you English,
cold as a stone!"
But Allard did not hear, he was
watching the next act in the SPLEEN

and first kinsman of the emperor,
Stanief moved forward to offer his
homage.
Not here" Allard impIored
mutely, his eyes on the golden cen.
trail figure, his hands clenched with
nervous dread for the one he loved.
Surely. surely not even Adrian will
hurt him here, before these!"
Perhaps the thought of Just how
humiliating this could be made was
also present in Staniefs mind. per-
haps some deeper emotion, for there
was no trace of color in his firm,
dark face. Intent, breathless, the
church looked on at the meeting, an
audience of courtiers and diplomats
whom no slightest detail escaped.
In her place Iria laid one hand
above her heart where. under vel
vet and satin, the tiny Spanish
cross still rested.
1t was over very briefly. AS
Stanief would have sunk to his
knee, Adrian make quick step for
ward and prevented the movement.
mot TO me. my cousin" he said
quietly. mot now, at least" And
he embraced the other with touch
that lifted the formality to caress.
The great mass Of people re-
manned absolutely still. One would
have said there was not a breath
drawn or a garment rustled. Stanief
himself faltered. shaken out of his
stoicism and flushing heavily; 1t
was a perceptible moment before he
recovered and carried on his role.

Allard saw. He saw Stanief's oath
Of allegiance given and received, he

coined It; he heard the emperor's
graceful speech of thanks for the
long service completed now But
no one except Stanief himself
caught the murmured answer to the
quaint, earnest phrases of feudal
loyalty:
For the second time. Feodor."
And to the listener the cathedral
faded momentarily at the reminder;
the rose hued salon or the Nadeje
closed around.
The rest Of the affair posed more
rapidly. Adrian took Iria's hands
as she came to him and kissed her
on both cheeks. After that the 9th.
ers came and went, the superb
whirl and current rushed on. Once
only the eyes of Allard and Stanief

In the departure from the cath

said to his late regent, on the steps.

Take care: am too new an
autocrat for contradiction.
So Iria went surrounded by her
butterfly ladies'. and Stanief rode
by the emperors side during that
bewidering return.
In the streets there was no high
bred reserve; seeing him there. the
capital went into a madness OF en-
thusiasm.

NEARLY Welded HIS SISTER
Relationship Discovered and Marriage
Averted In the Nick Of
Time.

Pittsburg, Pa.-Fate played a
strange trick upon brother and sister
in McKees Rocks, Pa, when they were
about to be made man and wife.
Robert Henderson, the groom, had
been adopted when left an orphan in
childhood by family named Hender-
son, in Richmond, Va. His sister re-
mained in McKees Rocks In the care
of an aunt. Robert took the name Of
his foster parents, and the girl re-
tained her own, Elizabeth Marsh.
Last fall the brother came to Nc.
KEGS Rocks to work in the plant of
the Pressed Steel Car company, and
there he met Elizabeth, not knowing
it was his sister. A betrothal fol-
lowed.
In the marriage license the young
man wanted his own name to appear.
and he sent to Richmond for the nec-
essary information. 1t was then that
the couple discovered their true reIa-
tions,
