Struck in the Face

II supposed for the moment that K. who faced the door, had seen him. and had not wanted him to see us two talking confidentially We none of us like Z much and l for one always resented his membership of the club. The man is vulgar, though he is so rich, and none of us care much about him.
 TX. was one of the few who treated him as one of ourselves. He even used to dine with the Ks now and then, and I have seen them in his box at the opera. K as he crossed the room. bumped Into Z.. and to my amazement, instead or laughing an apology. struck him across the face, and told him not to be so awk- ward. z. became livid. I suppose I need not give you my card he said. Two of my friends will do themselves the honor of calling on you tomorrow morning. K. did not say word. He bowed. and as Z left the club .stook my arm and sat down again with me.
 ''I can tell you now. he said, for you will be my second, will you not? Do you remember the ball at the Duchesse de Rs?' Of course do,' I said. That was the ball where Gabrielle lost her pearls K nodded, and his white face grew winter.
 She had always wanted pearls he whispered She said the Comtesse de K ought to have pearls whether she could afford them or not, and we had laughed a good deal over them. I had been to one of those places where they make limitations. and I had bought her a necklace. l paid E30 for it. and leased her a good deal for this ridiculous piece of extrava gance for sheer vanity on her part

Suing for Divorce

I tell the story as 1t was told me by a close friend of Ks a member of his club. a man who had been at school with him. and from whom K had no secrets. He had met x. the day before and told him he had never seen so great a change in any man. He looks," he said poor devil. as though he had been stunned, and I can well understand it, for the roof has fallen from his heaven. My dear fellow he told me, when he could speak. I know I look ghastly, and you will un- derstand why when l tell you what has happened
 q remembered something I had heard about high play, and offered x. such help as l could give if that was what was the matter. No, mo- he said, 1t IS not money. have been playing bit recent ly, but have been winning. They say that-but it doesn't matter what they say My trouble is with Gabrielle You have heard that she is suing for divorce. She is doing so with my consent-doing so by my wish, in fact. Thel action will not be defended In few weeks or few months, as quickly as the lawyers can arrange things, Gabrielle and l will bear the same name no longer
 But surely I said, surely you and Gabrielle X. shook his head. and flung his hand out in a pathetic, heart broken way Don't couple our names ever again, there's good fellow he cried; it's a horrible business 1 sat and stared at K, thinking hard as l stared, but I could think of no man who had ruined his life. I don't think l can tell you at all, after all, murmured K, and then suddenly he sat straight up, sprang to his feet and crossed the room. z. had just entered.

 Dance and Started
 Trouble


John N Raphael in the London Express
 All Paris was startled a few weeks ago when it became known that divorce pro- ceedings had been started by the Com jesse de K The news went round as such news always does. in less than no time.
 It startled Paris first, then puzzled 1t, and it ia puzzling Paris still. for the Comte and Comtesse de X made that rarest Of gil things in Paris. love match, less than three years ago, and x. vas known to lead an exemplary life.
 He was poor. of course--the Hs have always been poor-and his wife brought him little O. no money with her. 2ut she had always been what was known as n managing woman" In fact Ks friends were a little bit tired of hearing Of the wonderful way in which she kept house on very little and dressed so well on next to nothing.
 There are and there will always be evil tongues in Paris society, and these were busy when the news of the divorce was confirmed But the evil tongues could do no more than hint that the Com tesse dc K was q beautiful woman, and even they could find no names to play with. A few days ago l learned the truth of the story. It is sufficiently dramatic to make 1t worth repeating, but Of course, under the circumstances l can mention no names.

Scattered Pearls

Tt was the first evening she had worn the pearls, that evening at the Rs. and. as you remember, the string broke while she was dancing, and the pearls rolled to all corners of the room. AS we were leaving R. asked me whether all of them had been found. T think so,'' I said. But surely you are certain" answered he. How many were there?" "I really don't know I replied. s'I have never counted them."
 "R. laughed, I remember, and said that was a millionaire's answer. Next morning. before l was up, he came round to see me Six more pearls had been found. and he had brought them with him. T hope these complete the neck lace" he said. '1 know something of pearls. as you know, and these six by themselves are worth G700 or sSoo." I laughed al him for that. and chaffed him ptilessly about his knowledge.
 "Lucky for you you do not deal in pearls for living I said. "Gabrielle's necklace--'' and then I stopped short. What is her necklace, worth at rough computations"
 "'R. shrugged his shoulders. I'm not a jeweler, old man." he said but let me see the other pearls?'' fetched them. I had put them in my pocket the night before and they were in my dressing room still.
 As ] laid them down, tied in my handkerchief as I had brought them home. in front of R., I said. You know you're quite wrong. and you're going to be the laughing stock of the whole club. These pearls are imitation I need not go into more details. He was annoyed at my chaff, and we went to the Rue de Ia Paix together.
 The first jeweler we went to offered me $500 for the necklace. the second of fcred me 5000. Gabrielle But what she said and did does not matter. Now you know why I struck z. across the face just now. and why I never want to hear Gabrielle's name mentioned again.
 There will not be duel" said Ks old friend. "I have persuaded z. that trip to Morocco would be good for him"

ONE PIE FOR 70 GUESTS

Seventy guests banqueted on a
single pie at Gorleston, England, and
there was plenty to spare when they
had finished. The pie had three.
inch crust and weighed a hundred
weight and a half. It was made in
three sections or water tight com.
partments and each hold had a sub
stantial bulkhead Of crust. Its in
terror was packed with six rabbits, six
kidneys, 2S pounds OF beefsteak and
potatoes, turnips, carrots and sprouts.
The sea pie, as It is called, is boiled,
not baked, and its builder, Skipper
Harman, made the cooking process
an eight hours watch. This three
decker provided savory meal which
more than satisfied the guests, and its
wrecked and dismantled hull provided
ten gallons of excellent soup that was
greatly welcomed by the poor OF Cor
lesion.

have been the first season for eight
years that some sort of organized

Newark fans have several reasons
for being grateful to "Watty' for COM

club seemed about to meet a pitiable
death, Mr. watkins, through the cf-
forts of President Read, stepped into
the breach and purchased the fran
chise and club.
He added some new talent and in
about six weeks of the sag end % the
season, his team climbed from Iast
place to fourth place, where 1t finished
in the race.
Not any longer ago than last August
"Watty" again came to the rescue of
