Stuart was silent a moment, watch

you make me this offer today?"
You can keep little secret?'

For the first time he saw a cold

showed the white teeth-the smile of a
woman who would pause at nothing to
get what she wanted.
A blush of shame tinged his face as
he tremblingiy said:

OF course she was blufing She

muttered Wen see who wins"
/ He turned to his work with grim
/ resolution.
For two weeks the battle between
pride and love ragged in silence. Each
day he rose with the hope of some
sign from Nan, and each day hope
died in a more desperate and sullen
despair. At last he began to question
the wisdom of his course. Should be
not fight his battle at closer range?
What if he were in reality engaged in
a mortal combat with Bivens' millions
for Mans soul and body! The idea
was, too hideous to Re thinkable.
And yet the more he thought of the
scene of their parting, the more sick
ening became the conviction that her
anger at his use of an ugly word was
merely a subterfuge to break their en-
gagement The perfidy and cruelty of
such an act was too hideous for belief
yet if the thing were possible!
One evening he made up his mind to
go at once and fight for his old place
beside her on any terms she would
grant. He seized his hat and opened
the door. To his amaZement Bivens
was leisurely ascending the steps.
Stuart stepped into the parlor and sat
down with resignation to await his
entrance.
To his amazement he heard the maid
say:
This way. sir. DR.. Woodman asks
you to wait for him in the library"
So Biyens was calling on his arch
enemy by appointment Stuart replac-
ed his hat on the rack and returned to
his room, determined to await the out
come of this extraordinary visit
On DR.. Woodman's entrance Bivens
rose TO greet him with unusual anima-
ton and unmistakable good will.
When the doctor grasped the out
stretched hand a more striking con- |
trast could scarcely be imagined-the |

DISTRICT G. 0. P.
Is FULL OF PEP"
Local Republicans Hear Encouras.
ing Reports of Situation in
All Sections.

Local Republicans this week are opti-
mistic regarding the political outlook.
and the campaign is warming up into
something OF the old-time enthusiasm.
Reports which have reached T. Lincoln
Townsend and his lieutenants at the
Taft headquarters. Fourteenth and G
Streets. are said to be encouraging.
Gus Schuldt yesterday received a letter
from John Hays Hammond, president of
the National League Of Republican Clubs,
stating that the situation has materially
changed throughout the country within
the past fortnight. Mr.. Hammond said
that great confidence inspires the ac-
tivity Of the League Of Republican Clubs
National Committee.
Visitors coming to Washington from
distant States all say that Republicanism
is gaining, and the Bull Moose party is
losing ground. Mr.. Townsend and his
fellow-workers here express the belief
that the Bull Moose movement has gone
to its full tide and is now rapidly reced
ing. He thinks that the detection of
voters from Taft will be much smaller
than was at one time anticipated.
According to reports from competent
judges of the situation in Pennsylvania,
Maryland. and Virginia, Wilson enthusl-
asm is almost entirely lacking in the
ranks of the Democracy. and many DEM
ocrats have made the avowal that they
will vote for Taft to make sure that the
Bull Moose shall not force his way into
the White House next March.
This is the burden Of the news coming
from many sources to the Republican
headquarters in Washington. 1t has
greatly encouraged the local workers.
and they have gone to work with will
to do their share in bringing their hopes
to .fulhllment.
