head as she faced him was far from
reassuring. The clouds had taken
more definite form and in their center,
occupying the front of the great stage

of twisting matter. Bedight looked
at the girl apprehensively, as she sat
In the stern of the boat, taking the
splashing drops OF rain like a Spar
tan.
Miss Mcconnell, we are going to
have a bad storm presently. DON you
think it would be better to go back?
Look at the sky behind you"
She turned her head. An exclama-
ton Of surprise broke from her lips.
IF you think best, Mr.. Bedight. l

I'm still satisfied to go on il you are"
proudly.
A terrific clap OF thunder directly
overhead, coupled with a roar in the
west, caused Bedight to hesitate. In
stead OF turning the boat. he headed
for the shore. Behind them the storm
was rushing with ten league wings
and tho waves leaped into an action
that set the boat tossing like q speck
upon a boiling pot. The Gay became

The mayor gritted his testh. Once
outside the smaller lake the course OF

against the wind:

Her answer was lost In the musketry
and deluEs that followed. The boat,
half filled with water. lurched perilous-
ly, rolled like = cedar log and turned
turtle!
Bedight felt himself carried forward
with terrible speed and deposited
upon the shore. He shook the water
from his eyes. Beside him on the sand
lay the girl, and a rod down the shore
the boat hung upon the single.
She opened her eyes to the sound
OF his voice and the pressure of bis
hand upon her heart. Coughing. she
sat up on the beach and rubbed the
sand from Ter face and hands. Her
clothes hung closely upon her, show
ing the outlines OF her body. The
rain still fell In torrents and ran down

"Oh!" she gasped. when her senses
marshaled themselves from the be-
wilderment, I've lost my sketch!"

SAYS LATERAL TEARING
CAUSED TITANIC TO SINK.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 17.-rhat
the Titanic was sunk by a lateral
tearing and not by a head-on collision
is the opinion of Hugh P. Frear, de-
signer of the battleship Oregon and
among the experts in naval construc-
ton on the Pacific coast.
THE sides of q vessel are the most
difficult to protect said Mr.. Frear.
"They are the most vulnerable spots in
a steamships anatomy, and 1t is my
opinion that the Titanic struck the ice
berg at an angle. A headon collision
could scarcely have lone the damage
necessary to sink the vessel"

Conditions of Sale

Owing to the immense response that always attends a sale of this
kind we want to be fair to all, and therefore cannot send on approval
nor c. o. D. unless a deposit is paid. Those having charge accounts
may have them charged, but that all may have a chance to secure the
dresses on day of sale we must refuse to credit any after the sale. We
must adopt this method with charge customers to avoid having goods
charged only to be credited after the sale, thereby depriying many from
securing them on day of sale.

Harmon Total Reduced

Columbus, O., May 2S.-Scattering
returns from the most distant dis
tricts which have been received with
in the last few hours, indicate that
Colonel Roosevelt's delegates acquir-
ed in Tuesdays primaries will not
drop below the 80 hitherto accorded
him. Governor Wilson of New Jersey
however, has made slight gains and
there is possibility that Governor
Harmonis delegates will not total more
than 81.
The respective pluralities Of the
candidates in the democratic presi-
Dental preference with practically
complete returns from all but seven
counties are 1O,1S7 for Wilson and
2S,22S for Governor Harmon, giving
the Ohio governor majority Of 49,
O91. While the seven counties, it is
thought. may reduce Harmon's plural
ity slightly. no important change in
the figures is expected.
The governor lost his home county.
Hamilton. in the First district by a
close race, but suffered no loss of
delegates inasmuch as his opponent
had no candidates for delegates. CIer-
mont county. the home of Lieutenant
Governor Hugh Nichols. Harmon's
campaign manager. gave Mr.. Wilson a
plurality Of rs. Supporters Of the
Ohioan are said to be in control Of the
county convention, however.
On the basis Of the calculations Of
delegates to the republican state con-
vention, Colonel Roosevelt apparently
has ss7 out of 754. while s7S are nee
essary to control The county con-
ventions to which delegates we're
elected Tuesday and at which all but
2S counties will name state delegates,
have not met, but estimates in each
county accord Colonel Roosevelt an
advantage. Taft supporters do not
admit this. however. and intimate that
the president will have enough
strength in tie state convention in
June to give him the six delegates-at-
large.
The total Ia Toilette vote in the
primaries was a little less than $4,000.
