CHAPTER xxvI.
A Chance Conversation.

The opportunity thus so unexpected and Keith accepted it with swift deter ans face was scarcely one of vel come, yet his purpose was sufficiently serious to cause him to ignore this with easy confidence in himself.
 'I am, indeed, most fortunate to dis cover you alone. Miss Maclaire," he said, avoiding her eyes by swift glance over the table. "and evidently at time when you are only beginning your meal. May join you!"
 She hesitated for an instant, debat- ing with herself, and as quickly de- ciding on disagreeable tactics.
 'I presume this is a public table, and I consequently have little choice in the matter, if you insist" she re- piled, her voice more civil than her words. Still, MT. Keith, I am not accustomed to associating with crim- inals."
 He smiled, holding his temper in check, more than ever determined to win
 Then, possibly, you may rather welcome a new diversion. I can as- sure you our criminals out here are the most interesting portion of our population. I wish I might have your permission"
 Standing there before her, bare headed, his slightly tanned face strong and manly. his gray eyes filled with humor, Miss Maclaire recognized again that he was not of the com mon herd, and the innate coquetry of her nature obtained mastery. What harm could it do for her to chat with him for half an hour? It was better than eating a lonely meal, and, be- sides, she might learn something of value to report to Hawley. Her own eyes frightened, the slight frown dis appearing.
 You are certainly an illustration of your theory" she said pleasantly. "I shall have to say yes, but, really, I did not suppose you would enjoy being ranked among that class"
 He drew out a chair, and sat down facing her, leaning slightly forward upon the intervening table
 'Nor would I, only I recognize you do not comprehend. The source of your information Is a bit polluted, Miss Maclaire. There are those whose good opinion I do not seek, and you should not form your decisions on the unsupported testimony of a personal enemy"
 "Oh indeed" rather resenting the words, and already regretful of her

clasping, and unclasping nervously. Why, what a strange coincidence!"
 How? What do you mean?"
 'Oh, nothing biting her lips in vexation. "The name merely recalled something. But really, must go, MT. Keith, or I shall be late at the theater. You have not attended since I came?"
 "No," arising from the table with her. However, have heard you sing before, and hope I may again
 How tenderly you dwell on that word hope" she said banteringly, 'it almost makes me envious.''
 Your resemblance almost makes ne forget"
 But not quite?"
 No, not quite," he confessed, smiling back into her quizzing eyes.
 They went out into the hall togeth- CT. only to meet with Doctor Fairbain at the door,. The latter stared at the two with some embarrassment, for a moment forgetful of his purpose. His gaze settled on the face of the lady.
 Always getting you two mixed" he blurted forth. Never saw such re- positively uncanny-same hotel too means trouble-this Miss Waiter

threatening him. But Waite evidently knew the man under another name his given name-and the gambler had sent him of on false trail. The lost papers apparently contained the solu- ton to all this mystery, Waite be- ueved Hawley possessed taem, but did not suspect that Bartlett and Flaw ley were the same person What would he most naturally do now7 Seek Hawley in Topeka probably; seize the first opportunity of getting there. Keith turned impatiently to the clerk.

I am sure I should enjoy your company exceeding ly. but tonight I must plead a previ- ous engagement"
 "Ah-ab, some other night?"
 With pleasure, yes"
 The doctor faded away into the of- flee, not wholly satisfied because Keith still fingered. Miss Christie extended her hand.
 Isn't he funny man? But do like hin1-someway I like 50 many people whom perhaps I ought not, including you, MT. Jack Keith. Please think over what I told you about MT. flaw ley, won't your"
 Certainly; you have given me food for thought I presume he is to be your escort?"
 She bowed, evidently resenting the question.
 "Yes, and it may interest you to know that he has something of the ut most importance to tell me tonight he has actually seen my guardian. Don't you wish you could be there?"
 She gave him a tantalizing smile, withdrawing her hand, and running up the stairs before he could answer. Over the railing of the landing she glanced down, and then disappeared.
 To be continued.

car disappear. NO inquiries made or those lounging about brought results
 they had been interested in a lot ot drunken graders loaded on the fiat cars by force, and sent out under guard-and not one could tell whether any man answering Waite's descrip
 ton was in the single passenger coach. Convinced, however, that the General would waste no time in prose cutting his search, Keith believed him already on his way east, and after dis missing Neb, with instructions to watch out closely for Hawley, he made his own way back to the hotel.
 It seemed strange enough how com pletely he was blocked each time, just as he thought the whole baffiing mys- tery was about to be made clear. flaw ley was playing in rare luck, all the cards running easily to his hand, thus, at least. gaining time, and strengthen ing his position. There could no long CT be any doubt that the gambler pos sessed some knowledge which made him a formidable adversary. From Wafte's statement 1t was the loss of the papers which left him helpless to openly resist the claim being made upon him on behalf of the mysterious Phyllis. His only hope, therefore, lay in recovering these; but, with time limited, he had been sent back on a wild goose chase, while Keith alone knew, with any degree of positiveness, where those documents really were. Hawley certainly had them in his pos session the day before, for he had taken them to Miss Maclaire to thus convince her as to the truth of his statements. And Hawley was still in Sheridan. However, it was not likely the man would risk carrying documents of such value, and docu- ments connecting him so closely with that murder on the Santa Fe Trail, about upon his person. At best, life was cheap in that community, and Black Bart must possess enemies in plenty. Yet if not on his person where? Scott was only tool. a mere ignorant desperado, not to be trusted to such 8 degree-yet apparently he was the only one working with the gambler in this deal, the only one cognizant as to his plans. Christie Keith came to a stop in the street at the recurrence of the woman's name. Why not? If she had been convinced, if she really believed that these pa pers proved her right to both property and parentage, then she would guard them as dgress does her young, And Hawley would know that, and must realize they would be far safer in her hands than in his pocket. She could not use them without his aid and guidance, and yet, whatever happened to him they would still be safely be- yond reach. True, this might not have been done; the gambler might not yet have felt that he had sufficient hold upon the woman to trust her thus far, but 1t was, at least, a possibility to be considered, and acted upon
 Still wrestling with the intricate problem, Keith entered the dining room, and weaved his way, as usual. through the miscellaneous crowd, to- ward the more exclusive tables at the rear. A woman sat alone at one of these, her back toward the door. His first thought was that 1t must be Hope. and he advanced toward her, his heart throbbing. She glanced up, a slight frown wrinkling her forehea1. and he bowed, recognizing Christie Maclaire.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP SAYS BRYAN IS
 FOR CLARK
Belief in Democratic Circles Is That Peerless Leader Has ln- dicated His Preference For Speaker of the
 House.
Special Correspondent of the Copper
 Era)
D. c. Apr

WASHINGTON, D. c. April 13.--
 There is no denying the fact that there are millions of Democrats in the United States who love William J. Bryan and have the highest regard for him politically and personally. There also is no denying the fact that he is entitled to the friendship of all these citizens of the United States. His opinion goes very far with them because hey believe honestly, and have reason for their belief, that he is an unselfish patriot who has worked for the good of the peo- pie of this country. There are thou- sands and hundred of thousands of men in this country who are unselfish
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1912-04-19

Democrats, who have been listening for some suggestion from Colonel Bry- an as to who he favors as the next nominee for the Dem mcratic party for the Presidency. He has never an nounced himself in so many words and thousands are still nungering to hear from him because they believe in his willing to follow him to any extent to nominate the man that he favors.
 While Colonel Bryan has not yet come out in so many words and an nounced his choice of the man who should be nominated for the Presiden- cy at the convention in Baltimore on the 25th of next June, nevertheless he has indicated very clearly where he stands. Every Democrat in this coun- try knows that Colonel Bryan is pro- gressive Democrat, and the vast ma jority of Democrats and citizens of this country agree with that progress sive idea of his. It is a significant fact that since the dinner that was giv- en to MT. Bryan in his home city of Lincoln, Nebraska, on the occasion of his fiftieth birthday, that two of his most intimate friends, men who had stood by him to the utter exclusion of all other men, should go home to the.r native states and immediately an hOunCS tue IdCI ludL they were Tor the Honorable Champ Clark for the nomination for the Presidency.
 All Democrats in this country will realize how significant is this fact when I mention the names of Senator elect Ollie M. James of Kentucky and George Fred Williams of Massachus- setts as the two men who are intimate friends of Colonel Bryan who immed- lately, upon their return from this Bryan birthday dinner to their native States, announced that they were for the Honorable Champ Clark for the Presidency. Whether or not those two intimate friends had silent whis- per from their erstwhile chief and Democratic leader in this country, Colonel William J. Bryan, dependent sayeth not, but if you will take the tip of an old fashioned newspaper cores pondent, who has been in contact with politicians all his life, they will come to the conclusion (and he has), that MT. Bryan's choice for President is the Honorable Champ Clark.
