could get through" asked des-
perately. Locking the door
doesn't shut up whole house. %
Bella's courage revived at that,
and she said yes, there were win
dows, plenty of them, only she
didn't see how she could get out.
And I said she would have to get
out, because 1 was playing Bella
in the performance, and didn't
care to have an understudy. Then
the situation dawned on her, and
she sat down and laughed herself
weak in the knees. OF course she
wanted to stay, then, and see the
fun out. But l was firm; she
would have to go, and I told her
SO. Things were complicated
enough without her.
Well, we looked funny, no
doubt. Bella in a Russian pony
automobile coat over the black
satin she had worn at the oleve-
lands dinner, and in cream
lace. the skirt gathered up from
the kitchen floor, with Bella's err
mine pelerine around my bare
shoulders, and dishes and over
turned chairs everywhere.
Bella knew more about the
lower regions of her ex-home than
/ would have thought. She open
ed door in a corner and led the
way through a narrow hall past
the refrigerating-room, to a huge,
cemented cellar, with furnace in
the center, and a half-dozen cleo
trio lights making 1t really bril-

But 1t was my turn to grip
Bella. From behind the furnace
were coming the most terrible
sounds, rasping noises that fairly
frayed the silk of my nerves. We
stood petrified for an instant.
Then Bella laughed. "They are
not all gone" she said carefully.
Someone is asleep there"
We tiptoed to where we could
see around the furnace, and, sure
enough, someone was asleep there.
Only, 1t was not one of the serv-
ants; 1t was portly policeman,
with a newspaper and an empty
plate on the floor on one side, and
a champagne bottle on the other.
He had slid down in his chair,
with his chin on his brass but
tons, and his helmet had rolled a
dozen feet away. Bella had to
clap her hand over her mouth.

CHAPTER v
From the Tree of Love.

There is hardly any use trying
to describe what followed. Anne
Brown began to cry, and talk
about the children. (She went
to Europe once and stayed until
they all got over the whooping-
cough.) And Dallas said he had

thing to do was to be quiet and

in the morning. Max took 1t as q
huge joke, and somebody found
him at the telephone, calling up
his club. The Mercer girls were
Historically giggling, and Aunt
Selma sat on a stiff-backed chair
and took aromatic spirits of am
monia. AS for Jim, he had col
lapsed on the lowest step Of the
stairs, and sat there with his
head in his hands. When he did
look up, he didn't dare to look at
me.
The HARRISON man was arguing
with the Impossible Individual on
the top step outside, and 1 saw
him get out his pocketbook and
offer crisp bundle of bills. But
the man from the board of health
only smiled and tackled at his Of
fensive sign. After a while Mr..
HARRISON came in and closed the
door, and we started at one an
other.

Jimmy groaned at the foot of
the stairs, but Anne Brown was

she turned on me in a temper.

retorted grimly. ''You will car

Rome. Italy. Sept. 9-One of the
most atrocfous murders that has come
to light in Italy Of late occurred at
the town OF Pellaro in Calabria yes
terday morning and it Is attributed to
the Black Hand, which has been un-
usually active of late. The victims
were Giuseppi Rugolino. who spent
number Of years in America, and all
the members Of his immediate family.
The first intimation OF the crime was
early yesterday morning. when the in
habitants of the village were aroused
from their slumbers by a series of
piercing shrieks. Scantily clad men
and women rushed into the street in
the semi-darkness to find the three
year-old daughter Of Rugo1ino lying
dead in pool Of blood with her head
almost severed from her body Near
her lifeless body lay a hatchet with
which she had been hacked and chop-
ped in the most horrible manner.
A hasty search OF a hut near by in
which Rugolina, who was a forest
guard. lived revealed the dead and mu-
tflated bodies of the man. his wife and
five children besides the little one
found in the street. All had been at
tached with hatchets and were terri
bly, cut and slashed.
There was no clue to the identity Of
the murderers. but it is rumored that
four masked men were seen lurking
about the streets during the night It
seems that no report of this fact was
made to the police.
Pellaro is a town on the coast rail-
road near the northern entrance of the
Strait of Messina. 1t is about six or
seven miles south Of Reggie di Gala
bria- The region is one OF barren
rocks and sand hills, fntersected here

Apennines. There are dry at this time

Mr.. Hill let fall showers of cpl

to hear the principles Of conservation
of natural resources acclaimed as you
have done. I have fought many years
for conservation and conservation has
won. I thank YOU"
Mr.. Hill spoke with a vigor of ges-
ture that gave the lie to his grey
beard. The following excerpts stood
out from his address:
1.-The need Of the hour is to conserve
