CHAPTER Ill.

AS he stepped out of the lift Colonel
O'Rourke remarked light in his
room, visible through the transom
over the door.
"The femme de chambre," he
thought. "Sure and the poor things
still busy trying to clear up. ;"
To the contrary, he found the door
fast. otis careless she was to leave
the light on" he observed, fitting his
key in the lock.
If thoughtless in that one way, the
woman had fulfilled the letter of her
word in the other. 1t was with CON-
prehensive relief (since he anticipated
q caller) that he found the room once
again presentab.e.
But one thing surprised him; and
more surprising still was the fact that
his ordinarily Indifferent eye should
have detected it at the first glance.
He had indeed hardly entered before
he became aware Of square of white
paper tucked in tho corner of the bu-
reau mirror.
"The divvle, now" he greeted 1t.
"That's curious. Could one Of
me many admirers have bribed the
femme de chambre to bring a note to
me?' He chuckled, holding to the
light a much soiled envelope, grimy
with the marks ct many fingers, plas-
tered with stamps and black with
postage marks and substitute adj.

reached the addressed: who was,

ing it intently, Infinitely less concern
ed with it's contents than with the
manner by which it had reached him.
The first postmark seemed to be that
of Rangoon, the original address, the
Cercle Militaire, his club in Paris.
Thence, apparently, it had sought him
in Galway, Ireland, Dublin, Paris again,
and fnally-after half dozen other
addresses-"C. of Nine O'Rourke, Ho-
tel Carlton, London" The London
postmark was indecipherable. .
He found himself trembling violent
ly. BY one hand alone could this
have reached him, since the post had
not brought it to Monte Carlo. .
He recalled that woman's voice which
had 50 stirred him, the woman of the
Casino whose bearing had seemed to
him so familiar. -.
Some one tapped on the door; he
smothered a curse of annoyance, and
went to answer, thrusting the letter
into his pocket.
A page announced Monsieur lie

UNITED WORkMEN.

As the close of the year draws near
when the annual award of the A. o.
L. W. state banner takes place, va
rious lodges that are in the lead in
the contest are getting much animated
over the banner contest. Grand
Recorder George Stroh received i let
Brother David Bernard recorder of
StoningtOn lodge, of Stonington, Conn,
asking for the exact standing of his
lodge in the contest. Brother Stroh
replied that at the time of writing.
October goth, the lodges in the lead
in the contest were Wadsworth No. so,
of Hartford, and Stoninston lodge
with Wadsworth slightly in the Lead,
the net increase of membership for the
year thus far of those lodges being
Stonington 4, and Wadsworth 2. but
Stonington lodge at the beginning of
the contest had 80 members While
Wadsworth had but 80. Thus in ac-
cordance with the net increase rule
proportional to membership which
govern the award, Wadsworth was
slightly ahead. However there is no
telling yet which lodge will get the
banner as Nathan Hale, No. 49, OF
Hartford is out for it, with two rival
recruiting committees selected from
its membership, busy as bees working
for the honor; and other lodges have
the recruiting spirit on in good
earnest.
Thames lodge, No. Is, of Groton had
an unusually interesting meeting last
Tuesday evening at which several
matters of Importance were consider
ed, chief Of which was the formulating
Of plans for inAugurating a cam
