CHAPTER VII. (continued.)

Well, II ended by Jim's graciously
permitting Bella to remain-there be-
ing nothing else to do-and by his
magnanimously agreeing to keep her
real identity from Aunt Selma and Mr..
HARRISON, and TO break the news of
her presence to Anne and the rest II
created a sensation beside which
Anne's pearls faded away, although
they came 10 the front again soon
enough.
Jim broke the news al once, gather
ing everybody but HARRISON and Aunt
Selma in the upper hall. He was
~palpitatingly nervous. but he tried to
carry It OF with a high hand.
It's unfortunate" he said, looking
around the circle of faces, each one
frozen with amazement, and just a
suspicion, perhaps. OF incredulity.
Its particularly unfortunate for her.
You all know how high-strung she is,
and II the papers should get hold of it
we'll. we'll all have 20 make II as
easy as we a for her"
With Jim's eye on them, they all
swallowed the butler story without a
gulp. But Anne was indignant.
Its like Bella" she snapped. Well,
she has made her bed and she can lie
OF it. I'm sure | shan't make 1T for
her. But IL you want { know my
opinion. Mr.. HARRISON may be a fool,
but you can't ram two BeIlas, both nee
Knowles, down Miss Caruthers' throat
with a stick"
We had not thought Of that before
and every n looked blank. Finally,
however, Jim said'Bella's middle name
was Constantia. and we decided to
call her that. But 1t turned out after
ward that nobody could remember 1t
in a hurry. and generally when we
wanted to attract her attention, we
walked acros the room and touched
her On the shoulder. 1t was quicker
and safer.
The name decided, we went down
stairs in a line to welcome Bella, to
try to make her feel at home, and to
forget her deplorable situation. Leila
had worked herself into a really SYM
pathetic frame Of mind.
Poor dear" she said, on the way
down. Now don't grin, anybody. Just
be cordial and glad to see her, rope
she doesn't cry. You know the spells
she takes"
We stopped outside the door. and
everybody tried to look cheerful and
sympathetic and o grinny-which
was as hard as looking as II we had
had a cup Of tea-and then Jim
threw the door open and we filed In.
Bella was comfortably reading by
the fire, She had her feet nc on
. stool and a pillow behind her head.
She did not even look at us for a min.

she turned a page.

But all snakes, great and small. are

The attorney general holds that the
game law" is not law, regardless OF
the fact that 1t received the signatures
of the oincers of both houses, and was
approved by the governor. This bill
shows what might easily occur to any
easur in the closing hours of a ses-
sion, when laws are being made as
when members are voting on measures
of which they have not the slightest
knowledge, and the officers of the two
houses are hurriedly signing the bills
which are being constantly pushed be-
fore them by the chiefs of the ENROLL
ing departments of the two houses.

The annual meeting of county audi
tors, which occurs the last week in
March, will in this city on
the 10Th of this month, to consider
assessment matters along with the
state board. While the state law pro-
vides for such meetings, the legisla-
ture has with the exception of one
year, refused to defray the expenses
of the auditors at such meetings, but
the counties generally appear to think
1t a good business proposition to have
their auditors present to see that they
get as many favors as possible for
such a session, and are wiling TO
pay the expense.

In the new compilation of the rail-

require railways to grant free trans

mission, their secretary, and to such
experts, and assistants as the commits
sion might need in their work. But
some one objected to this and the
word not" was inserted after shall,
but the rest of the section was left as
drawn, and it says the experts and
assistants shall be carried free, but
the commission and secretary must
pay fare.

SAYS ARREST IS RESULT Of POLITICS
Declares His Desire to Prevent Wappenstein rom

how 1t happens that the Post-In-
ltelligencer is able to reproduce
evidence before the grand fury,
Did they steal it?-or did DR..
Mathews. elder of his church and
foreman OF the grand jury. loan
1t to them?
That there was no testimony
before the grand jury sufficient to
warrant an indictment is shown by
tho fact that the prosecuting at
torney refused to sign the find
ings of that body, until ordered to
do SO by the court, who, Of course,
acted from his Interpretation of
the law, and not from his knowl-
edge of what the testimony was.
"As to the conspiracy I have
only this to say: So far as / have
any knowledge there was never a
cent paid to any member of the
police or to any human being by
the men who owned and operated
that dance house by permission OF
the mayor-nor do l believe that a
penny OF money has ever been
given to the chief or his assist
ants, and l know that no one has
ever assumed that the Times ever
received penny from any human
being for anything that was not
absolutely earned In a proper way.
That DR.. Matthews has played
into the hands of the Post-Intelli-
gencer for the purpose OF political
revenge may or may not have been
an accident. Wilson .(owner of
the Post-Intelligencer) has always
been a candidate for the United
States senate, and the Times has
always opposed him--and Wilson
has always been defeated. This
fact alone is sufficient excuse for
all the dirty work which the Post
Intelligencer has done toward my
self and the Times for tho last 2
years while under the control of
Wilson. {
If these cases are ever brought
to trial they will be defeated as
rapidly as 1t is possible to put
them before the court--and even
the Post-Inteiligencer admits that
there Is not sufficient testimony
to Justify a trial, and therefore
not sufficient to justify an indict-
ment, and by that admission the
P.-I. endorses the stand taken by
prosecuting attorney"
