a suggestion, not a conviction,
voiced. You are right. of course.

Desmond came to me"

"a week ago. He came to me for
money to go east. DO you mind
how you and Master Robert used
to sneak away from your nurse to
play with Tommy, the coachman's
boy?' he said to me. And now
Tommy Desmond is nursed by the
police far and near. l am master
at my trade, am He has not
changed much since we recognized
him at his trial, five years ago, and
tried to help him."
Robert turned to see the face

against Allards coat and hung

entangle the delicate wings before
replying, the careful seriousness of
the little action in itsci: a. char

what Desmond was punished. Yet

INDIA TABLE COVER WAIST.

This girl got her nifty waist in
the upholstery department. And
she isn't a bit out of style. Indeed,
she's only following the lead of the
French woman who discovered,
few months ago, that a pretty waist
might be made from an India print
table cover. The vogue spread
through Paris and has now reached
this side. The upholstery depart
ments are doing more business in
these table covers than in any other
article.
The cloth is doubled in half. The
neck Is cut out of the center. Two

Especial From a staff Correspondent
NORFOLK, VA, Sept. 27.--What
will be the outcome of the probe into
the Second district Democratic con-
gressionai primary Is a puzzling ques-
ton in these parts. Some say that
it will bring about the elimination
of Alvah Martin as a political fac
tor in Norfolk county affairs. and In
cidentaIly a better state of Affairs
generally In the Second district. 9th
ers freely predict jail terms for va
rious and sundry primary election Of
ficials resulting from a grand jury in
vestigation. Still others foresee great
est activity on the part of voters at
future elections, especially In the case
of those who were SO remiss as to
the recent primary. thus giving otn-
ers an opportunity of casting their
ballots in their absence.
For the last two or three days most
eyes have been conferred ON Norfolk
county. In this county no one. has
seemed to know the whereabouts of
the registration books, and that has
rendered the situation al the more
acute. The poll books, however, have
been produced and they have given
counsel for the people considerable
food for thought end speculation. MIR
Martin. who Is clerk of Norfolk Coun.
ty Court, says the regular registra-
ton books and records required By
law" are on file In his Office. but fl
SO happens that they are not the books
the investigators are after. 1t may
be that the next day or two will
bring forth more light on this partic.
ulsr subject.
