Before he had dismounted Mark and
Jakey were on their way to the barn.

just as the officer was coming up the
steps.

from which Mark had disappeared but
minute before-a minute is long
while sometimes. Mrs. Fain entered
and received the guest most graciously.
Captain Cameron Fitz Hugh was a
young Virginian, a graduate Of the
University Of Virginia law school, the
son of wealthy parents, whose acres
and negroes were numbered by thou
sands. He had known the Fains be-
fore the war, Mrs. Fain having been
born and reared in the Old Dominion.

I YHEN Mark went down stairs
R the next morning, followed
wv by Jakey, they were invited
into the breakfast room.
Laura Fain was there. but her mother
was not Mark looked at Laura, but
she avoided his gaze. He asked after
her mother.
Mamma scarcely ever gets up to
breakfast" she said as she poured out
a substitute for coffee.
During the meal she said but little,
and that was only on commonplace
subjects. She seemed to have more on
her mind than the soldier who was
taking his life in his hands, and stu
diously avoided looking at him at all.
After breakfast Mark followed his
hostess through a door opening into a
sitting room on the opposite side OF
the hall from the parlor.
Miss FaiA." he said, ST know too
well the station Of your family and
southern customs not to accept as a
gift the hospitality you have afforded.
I can only express my Indebtedness,
and the hope that some day the war
may be over and ] can come down
here and show my gratitude for some
thing of far more moment to me than
a nights lodging"
He paused, and then added:
May l ask a question? Are you a
Union - Confederate girl?'

Mark looked at her uneasily.
II inferred from what you said last
night that you will not betray me-"
81 will not

Mark stood gazing at her. She was
looking out of the window with trou-
bled expression.
Miss Fain," he said, you may be
doing wrong; you may be doing right.
AT any rate you are acting the part OF
n woman, and this act makes you in my
eyes the loveliest woman that lives"
The words were scarcely spoken when
the muscles Of the girls face contract
ed into an expression Of horror. Mark
could not understand why his speech
had so affected her. The natural un-
certainty of his position impelled him
to look about him for the cause

Mark took her by the hand and
spoke to her coolly, but quickly. "Call
Jakey for me, and we will both &c

barn. We can then go out without
meeting this officer. for he is doubt

danger. We shall meet plenty of sol

EUROPE REPORTS
POOR CROP CONDITIONS

From all over Europe there came
reports Of possible poor harvest of
the next crops. England Is so water
logged that the farmers say 1t will
be impossible to make the soaked soil
yield an abundant harvest France
is suffering even more. The Seine,
Loire and Dordogne have been in a
chronic state of flood for weeks; in
Spain, all the rivers from the Ebro in
the north to the Guadalquivir in the
south have overflowed their banks;
Italy is no better off, for landslides
and washouts have tied up several
railroads and the swollen Po has
threatened the exposition buildings at
Turin. In Switzerland the lakes and
rivers have swollen to unusual heights
damaging the quays and railroads; all
central Europe is suffering from ex-
cessive moisture and even Russia has
sent in reports of damaging floods.

FIFTEEN WOMEN LAWYERS
AT BAR IN PARIS

The recent celebration In Paris of
the centenary Of the decree Of 1910
by which Napoleon reestablished the
Order Of Advocates, after his sup
preston at the beginning of the
revolution, has disclosed the fact that
there are fifteen qualified women law
yers at the Paris bar. The dean,
Mile. Jeanne Chauvin, Is now doc
tor in law, having been inscribed for
ten years. She does not plead cases,
but teaches law. She is the author
of a treatise on the law concerning
children, which is a text book on the
subject. She lectures on law at five
girls schools in Paris.
Mile. Marguerite Mile is the real
dean of the women who plead cases.
She is skilful in her profession and
her charming appearance is no detri-
ment to her pleading. Mile. Helen
Maropolsky, who has cases in the
correctional and civil courts in ad-
dition to her practice in Assize Court,
comes of learned family. Her
father and mother are both doctors
in Paris, and her sister is becoming
noted as a chemist. Her beauty and
her love OF perfume may be guessed
from the names by which she is
known among her colleagues. Ia

OLDEST APPLE TREE
ON COAST FOUND

A. A. Quarnberg, district fruit in
spector, discovered and identified the
oldest apple tree on the Pacific coast
recently and Colonel McGunnegie of
Vancouver Barracks, Wash, COM
mander Of the post, has ordered that
fence be constructed around the
aged fruit bearer. In the near future
tablet bearing its history will be
erected near the tree. The tree was
planted years ago by early officers Of
the Hudson Bay company from seeds
carried in their pockets from Eng
land. Mr.. Quarnberg believes the tree
to be about IS years old. A passage
in a history of the early settlers has
the following to say concerning the
origin of the tree: "a lunch party
In London about 1925, given in hon
or of some young gentlemen who were
about to embark for Fort Vancouver
in the employ of the Hudson Bay
company, seeds of the fruit eaten
were slyly slipped by some young Ia
dies into the waistcoat pockets of the
young men, and upon their arrival at
their destination the young men, in
overhauling their wardrobes discov-
cred the seeds and gave them to
Bruce, the gardner at the fort"

GREAT BALL PLAYER
BUYS OREGON FARM

Joe Tinker, the Chicago Cub Short
stop, has bought an Oregon farm and
expects to become fruit grower
when he quits the diamond. He has
just completed a short visit to Port

near Newberg. He expects to install
the Tinker family on the farm next
fall at the close of the baseball sea-

Two acres in an East side suburb
were also bought by the Tinkers and
an option taken on two adjoining

Couples Ages Total 1877 Years, Mark
Seventieth Anniversary.
Paris.-A ''radium" wedding has
just been celebrated here, being the
SEVENTEEN anniversary of the marri-
age Of NJ. and Nine. Fernand Dugue,
whose ages total 1877 years.
M. Dugue is the Oldest dramatic
author in the world. His age is 95,
and his wife's 90, and they were mar
ried on November 20, 1S40.
M. Dugue is in excellent health and
spirits. but he is not quite certain
whether he has written forty-two or
forty-three plays. The best known of
them are The Pirates of the Savan-
nah" and "Cartouche" "The Pirates"
has been played more than 10000
times. His last playa drama at the
bottom OF the sea---was produced In
1877. and was revived with success in
Paris only a few weeks ago.
Nine Dugue has been confined to
her bed for the last two years owing
to broken leg. my bones are too
old to mend." she said to her guests,
"but that is all that Is the matter with
me. and II was my own fault that I

"The aim Of the invention has been
to initiate the action of the pneumat-
ic tire. An obstacle such as a stone
does not cause the whole wheel to
rise, as in the case with an ordinary
iron-tired wheel, but is, as 1t were,
swallowed up, the link or links imme-
diately effected yielding by virtue of
the hinges and bringing into play the
resiliency not merely of one or two
of the springs, but of the whole of
them round the entire circumference.
''The wheel is intended for use on
heavy commercial vehicles and motor
omnibuss. to give them the benefit
of the pneumatic tire with the em-
ployment Of no particle of rubber.
Another advantage claimed is immu-
nifty from side slip while dust IL
sucked up to a much smaller extent
