Air was forced into the relief we'll.
The pressure was so great that the

north of Birmingham. They secured
between $4,000 and 100000 from
the express safes. When the boys
stepped into the express a the ex-
press messenger who was then eat
ing his lunch, told them to get out
and threatened to throw hot coffee
on them if they didn't. He did not
believe then that they were robbers,
believing them to be runaway chaps,
beating their way. A bullet replied
to his threat about the coffee ana

Edward Scully Of New York, a SUI
perintendent in the street cleaning
department Of that city, was killed
when. in order to check a runaway
horse which had endangered the lives
of 800 school children, he rushed out
of his office, grabbed the animals

the curb. He died under the horses
hoofs.
The first witnesses examined in the
Sulzer Impeachment proceedings
were Jacob Schifa, banker, and Hen
ry Morganthau, treasurer, OF the Dem
ocratic campaign committee last aut-
umn and recently appointed ambas-
sador to Turkey. Both asserted
that in. giving their checks to Sulzer
they did not state the purpose for
which they should be used. Duncan
Peck, state superintendent Of public
works, testified that the governor
had asked him to violate his oath if
he should be called upon the witness
stand, saying that he was going to
do so if he had to. Henry Morgan
THAI, when recalled to the stand. by
the prosecution, swore that the gov
ernor had asked him to be easy on
him and treat the affair Of the mis-
spent campaign contribution as per-
sonal if he (Merganthau), would be
called to testify before the Impeach-
ers. It was testified that Richard
Croker, Jr., son of the former Tam
many leader, had given a check for
$4,000 made payable to cash at the
request of Sulzer. This check was
cashed by Frederick L. Colwell, the
governors Wall Street agent. 1t was
also made known that six contribu-
tions of amounts ranging from $500
to $1,000 had been received but not
reported in the governors list of cam
paign contributions. Richard Croker,
Jr., Dr.. Cox( Judge Conlan and Bra
dy, all contributors, whose contribu-
tions had not been shown on the gov
ernor's list, admitted that they gave.
Sulzer their money primarily for his
campaign fund, but not necessarily.
He could have used it, they testified;
for whatever purpose he wished. 1t
was the endeavor of Suffers attorneys
to show as much as possible that the
contributions questioned were made
as personal gifts to Sulzer to do with
them as he wanted.

In a moment the music began again,
and the dancers crowded back into the
ballroom.
Still fascinated, Elizabeth watched
them through another dance, and an.
other. Then suddenly she came to her
self. She vas a mile away from home,
her mother would be ANXIOUS about
her, she must go back at once. She
thought of her poor father, lying upon
his bed of pain, she thought Of the
fields of wheat with the bending heads,
and suddenly an idea flashed into her
mind. Here were young, strong men
who were able to dance round and
round in this terrible heat. They
could not fear sunstroke or overexer.
ton, as some of the lazy men with
whom her mother had talked had
done. Surely her mother had not
thought of asking them. They liked
to work, and it was better to help a
farmer gather in his harvest than to
chase a little ball all day with a big
stick!
But there is no time for my moth.
er to see them!" said Elizabeth, in a
panic. "By the time | could get home
and tell her, they would have gone to
bed, and after tomorrow it may be too
late. Oh, what shall l do?"
Then suddenly, as if impelled by
some strange force outside of herself,
shy Elizabeth did an almost incredi-
BILE thing. She stepped across the
porch of the great hotel and through
the window, and caught the nearest
gentleman by the arm. The gentle.
man stopped dancing at once, and
standing beside the lovely lady who
was his partner, looked down upon
Elizabeth, with her scarlet face and
old bingham dress and her dusty
shoes. The leading musician, playing
absently, and seeing Elizabeth, was
startled out of the correct time, and
made a sad business of getting back
to it. The dancers feet halted, start
ed to move once more, and stopped.
Necks were craned, heads were lifted
in an effort to see the reason for the
disturbance; there vas at once a gen.
eral movement of the dancers toward
the arrested gentleman and the little
girl.
What" said the gentleman, in
amusement, when he had heard Eliza
beth's story.
Elizabeth repeated ner request; to
her it did not seem in the least
strange; she was so earnest that even
her own position there among these
fine people did not seem unnatural.
She did not realize that the music had
stopped.
Then she felt herself taken by the
hand and led up the steps to the plat
form where the musicians sat. 1t was
the lovely lady who took her in
charge. The lady wore a yellow dress
and long white gloves.
TELL them all what you want" she
said to Elizabeth. Don't be afraid"
To Elizabeth the lights seemed to
rush together into n mighty star,
and the floor to reel beneath her feet.
Then she realized that somehow she
was speaking.
"My father broke his hip" she said,
in her clear voice. HE will have to
stay in bed till fall. All his grain is
out. My mother has driven all over
the country, and she can't find any
one to help. | should like to engage
some men to help with the harvest.
We will pay two dollars a day. We
ought to have fifteen men. / thought"
Elizabeth's breath had begun to fail
her, her heart beat so rapidly that
speech was almost impossible -"

from the window. "By tomorrow night
it will rain. We have had ten days Of
this clear, hot weather. 1t must rain
by tomorrow. Then the wheat will
rot"
|. Elizabeth stood for a moment by the
bed. She heard her mother come slow.
ly up the steps; she knew by the way
she moved that she was utterly spent.
She wished that her father would not
utter the words that she knew would
come in a moment.
"The harvest was sent to mock me-"
Mrs. Blake breathed heavily as she
came into the room, but she smiled
brayely at Elizabeth.
Go out for a while. I'll sit with
father"
Elizabeth went slowly down the
steps and outdoors. The moon had ap-
peared now from behind the tall trees
of the woodland; it shone down in
glory upon the beautiful wheat. The
air vas filled with the odor of ripen-
ed graham oder ~inseparable in Eliz-
abeth's mind from the trampling of
horses, the rafting sounds OF the
great reaper, and the cheerful voices
of the harvesters. But now there was
no sound except the distant music.
Presently Elizabeth walked down to
the gate and out upon the broad road.
She was restless, in spite of her weari-
ness; it seemed to her that if she
walked she might come to a cooler
spot. She went slowly down the dusty
road toward the great hotel, wishing
that she might forget trouble for a
while. She had never been close to
the hotel at night; she now approach
ed nearer and nearer, drawn by the
magical music. She felt an intense
curiosity to see the people who played
the violins, and the ladies who were
said to wear such beautiful dresses.
The air became more still and dead,
the dust in the road grew deeper, but
Elizabeth went on. She wor her old
est, most washed.out bingham dress
and her stout shoes; her clothes could
come to no harm. She passed the golf
course, where all day long men walk
ed about, hitting a tiny ball with a
club; she passed the smooth clay
courts, where other men batted slight
ly larger balls back and forth over a
white net. Elizabeth had watched
these activities from afar with curios-
ity and awe. She admired these fine
rich people, and all they did. Closer
and closer to the great building came
Elizabeth. Her feet made a gentle
sound on the grayeled drive, and she
moved to the grass beside it. There
was no one round; without being seen,
Elizabeth got close to the windows Of
the ballroom.
There Elizabeth beheld a wonderful
sight. The great room was decorated
with green branches; upon a raised
platform sat the musicians, and over
the polished floor, in time with the
music, moved beautifully dressed la
dies and fine gentlemen. Elizabeth
had heard about the summer hotel
dances, but she had never dreamed
they could be SO wonderful IS this.
She forgot who she was and wnere
she was; she ceased entirely to feel
the intense heat that a moment before
had made her gasp; she stood and
stared and listened, all eyes and ears.
Suddenly the music ceased. With
laughter and loud protests against the
heat, the young people crowded out
through the long windows to the porch
es. There was the sound Of clinking
glasses, there was & aver laughter,
there were no more complaints about
the heat.
